Chapter 337: Clues
Darkness enveloped the wilderness, and there was a deathly silence all around.
At the edge of the small lake in the oasis, Chen Fang and Lu Jingtao were huddled in their tents, only their heads were exposed, the warmth of the fire, and the low temperature of the desert night could not do anything to them.
"That necklace was handed down by my grandfather, who used to work in Western Xinjiang Province and got it by chance. When I got back to the city, I gave it to my dad and it went all the way to me. Chen Fang recounted the origin of this necklace.
Lu Jingtao asked, "Why can this necklace make us suddenly able to move?" ”
Li Wenzai stroked the pendant of the necklace and said: "Because this is a very peculiar talisman weapon, it is engraved with a mysterious formation, and after continuous wearing and recuperation, the pendant has absorbed the life energy of the person, and has the energy to activate." After you encounter danger, the formation in the weapon is triggered, so that you can resume your actions. ”
Chen Fang and Lu Jingtao glanced at each other, Li Wenzai's words sounded like a fantasy to them!
Ritual weapons? Formation? Life energy? This is too mysterious, too unbelievable!
Li Wenzai didn't want them to believe it, it didn't make sense. At this time, he was carefully checking the formation engraved on the pendant, and the most amazing thing was that the inside was also engraved with the formation, but there was not enough energy to support it, so it could not be activated.
"Put it away, this pendant is a good talisman for you."
As he spoke, Li Wenzai threw the pendant to Chen Fang. At the same time, his eyes seemed to glance inadvertently in the direction he came, and then he sat down in front of the fire and closed his eyes to recuperate.
……
Thirty miles from the oasis lake.
Behind the leeward dunes, several black tents hide in the darkness. Not far in the sand. A pair of eyes hidden behind a mirror that does not shine. Be on guard.
in one of the tents. Ron played a flashlight in one hand and carefully flipped through the notebook in his hand with the other. The notebook looked old, and the paper had turned a dull yellow.
Rons' expression was a little confused, as if he was remembering something. He took out a pocket watch and looked at the picture of the inside test of the pocket watch cover. In the photo, there are two people, a young man holding a boy of five or six years old.
"Dad, I want to see people. If you die, you will see the corpse, and I must find you! Ron whispered, his tone resolute and determined.
Suddenly, there was a roar in the sky, which quickly flew over their heads.
Ron hurriedly asked, "Carl, what is it?" ”
The voice of a secret whistle came from the walkie-talkie: "Don't worry, Mr. Rons, it's a helicopter of the Great Zhen Empire, I'm afraid it's on some mission." ”
Ron breathed a sigh of relief, he learned from a channel this time. An expedition from the Great Zhen Empire disappeared here, in a situation very similar to the disappearance of his father. So I spent a lot of money to get through the relationship and hired a team of mercenaries to come here.
But after all, this is the Great Zhen Empire, one of the superpowers of the world's second dimension, and you must be careful and cautious.
……
The roar of the helicopter sounded, and Li Wenzai's electromagnetic force field had already seen the armed transport helicopter.
After Li Wenzai made contact with the helicopter, the helicopter landed slowly. Four soldiers jumped down from above, saluted Li Wenzai, and quickly lifted Chen Fang and Lu Jingtao onto the helicopter, and then quickly flew away.
The whole process takes no more than 10 minutes, which is very fast.
……
Just over twenty minutes later, the helicopter passed overhead again, and Rons's heart couldn't help but move, "Can we go at night?" ”
"Of course, Mr. Rownes, if you will." The mercenary captain said.
Ron immediately jumped up and shouted, "Then pack up and set off immediately, the direction is the direction where the helicopter just flew!" ”
The group quickly packed up their tents and set off on their way.
There are night vision, there is a compass, and there is nothing but the cold.
Fifty minutes later.
Flipping through a sand dune, a small oasis suddenly appeared in their eyes. At the same time, there was also the bonfire that was still burning.
They hid behind the sand dunes, and Captain Fitzroy said to the scouts in the squad, "Flagg, you go and scout and see how many people are there and what kind of weapons they have." ”
"Okay, head." Flagg sprang out with his gun on his shoulder, like a poisonous snake wandering in the darkness, towards the oasis.
Soon, Flagg returned.
"Head, there is only one person there, a young man from the Great Zhen Empire, twenty-three or four-year-old, and he does not hold a weapon. I scouted the surroundings and didn't find anyone hiding. There are traces of the other two tents being set up at the campsite, and the people are afraid that they have left in the same helicopter as before. ”
Fitzroy asked, "What do you think, Mr. Rons?" ”
Ron was the employer, and it was expensive, so they naturally had to be careful.
Ron pondered for a moment and said, "We have so many people in the past, and even if he has a weapon, it is only one person, at most he has a gun in both hands. But there are sixteen of us, so we don't have to worry about any danger. ”
That's true, and Fitzroy thinks so too.
The group descended the sand dunes and came to the oasis.
Their appearance alarmed Li Wenzai, who was holding his mobile phone by the fire, he jumped up vigilantly, wiped his right hand on his waist, pointed a black pistol at the black shadow, and shouted in a low voice: "What person!?" ”
Ron and the others gradually approached, and Ron smiled kindly: "Don't get me wrong, we don't mean it badly. It's just that based on the previous helicopter, it was speculated that there was an oasis here, so I came here to rest. When you see your Excellency here, come and say hello. ”
He told Li Wenzai very calmly that they had come to speculate that there was an oasis from a helicopter, and such straightforwardness and calmness made Li Wenzai quite impressed. In addition, although they were all carrying guns, when he pointed his gun at the other party, the other party still did not raise the gun, indicating that there was indeed no ill will towards him.
put away the pistol, but the look of vigilance on Li Wenzai's face did not dissipate, and said, "Say hello." Please. ”
A twinkle of anger flashed in Rons' eyes. But on the surface, he smiled: "Friend." It is also a kind of fate to meet in this vast desert, so why should you refuse people thousands of miles away. ”
Li Wenzai sneered: "If you were alone, and you met a group of heavily armed people in the desert, would you let the other party approach you so lightly?" ”
Ron sighed and said, "Okay, it's us who are abrupt. ”
Thirty meters away from Li Wenzai, they set up a tent and lit a bonfire to rest.
Lee Moon-jae was already in Rons's belongings. Knowing the purpose of his trip, according to the investigation and research of Rons's father Gallaher, the ancient kingdom of Loulan in the Western Regions of the Great Zhen Empire did not disappear in a sandstorm, but was wiped out by a mysterious race from the underground secret realm!
The reason for their destruction of the ancient kingdom of Loulan is unknown, but Gallaher has confirmed the existence of the underground secret realm and the mysterious race through limited clues. This race is hidden deep underground, but in recent centuries, it has appeared on the ground many times, and even destroyed the ancient kingdom of Loulan.
Gallaher wanted to investigate the location of the secret realm. So he organized an expedition to the Great Zhen Empire and entered the hinterland of the desert. But all of a sudden, it mysteriously disappeared!
Ron was only twelve years old. He was raised by his mother. And his mother is a woman who has been liberated, and after her husband disappeared, in order to raise her son, she has created a wealth of more than one billion dollars in thirteen years and has become a famous rich woman in France.
Although life was very privileged, Ron and his mother never forgot about Gallaher!
This time, Ron spent a lot of money to recruit a team of mercenaries who were proficient in the desert environment, and asked them to protect themselves and find the secret underground places recorded in the notes left by his father. He firmly believes that his father is still alive!
Li Wenzai muttered in a low voice, "Looking for Dad?" What a dutiful son. ”
What really intrigued Lee was the notes left by Rons's father about that mysterious place in the desert.
All over the world, there have been legends like wild men and orcs, and in fact these things are the mysterious races that come to the surface to scout in the secret realm of the underworld!
And the reason why Gallah cares so much about this underground secret realm related to the ancient kingdom of Loulan in the western territory of the Dazhen Empire is because he once accidentally obtained an ancient cultural relic of the Dazhen Empire and deciphered the information in it.
Seeing this record, Li Wenzai was a little shocked, how did these underground secret realms exist! Because according to the records of Atlantis, none of them found such a place of existence zài!
Moreover, the legend of ginseng fruit seems to have a lot to do with the ancient myths and legends of Dazhen! Could it be that Wu Chengen has been to the underground secret realm and seen the underground race?
Such thoughts flickered in Li Wenzai's mind, making Li Wenzai's heart uncertain.
……
Late at night.
The cold that was very different from the scorching heat of the day invaded, and Li Wenzai was naturally not afraid of the cold. He lay in the tent, urging the current to flow through his body, constantly refining his body. At the same time, the mental method inherited from the Atlantean beast master operates in the body.
The division of the realm of the beast master is determined by the strength of the beasts that can be controlled! Although Li Wenzai's cultivation is not high, his spiritual power is extremely strong, because the realm of the beast master is quite high.
But the real strength of the beast master lies in the creation of zào! For example, the hydra, whose body is actually just an ordinary snake, is created by special means; For example, the bipedal wyvern; For example, the eight-fold snake; Such as the two-headed fire dragon and so on!
And to create zào, it requires strong spiritual power to cultivate!
Therefore, although Li Wenzai can now control the few strange beasts left behind by the Atlantis Beast Master, he can't create zào by himself.
……
Early in the morning, Li Wenzai got up and washed in the lake, and then cleaned up his breakfast.
Suddenly, a gunshot startled Li Wenzai to dodge, but found that the head of a cobra not far away was shattered, and the snake's body was still twitching.
He turned his head to look at Rons, walked over to Zhengse, and said, "Thank you for saving your life, now I believe that you have no ill will towards me, and I apologize for my rudeness last night." ”
Ron smiled magnanimously: "No, that's nothing, in fact, I think you're right, in a place like this, being cautious with strangers is responsible for yourself." ”
Li Wenzai smiled: "To thank you." I treat you to breakfast. ”
Ron laughs, "It was a great honor. ”
The fish in the desert lakes are very good to catch. Seven of them will be caught in more than ten minutes. The point is that the fish here are very big. Each one is the length of an adult's arm and the thickness of a thigh!
After some tossing, Li Wenzai cooked seven big fish. To Rons' surprise, all the thin bones in the fish meat were shattered!
"It's a family handiwork." Li Wenzai explained it this way.
"Lee, what are you doing in the desert alone?"
Li Wenzai said: "The purpose of my coming here is to find someone!" I have two lovers, and their elder brothers are both special forces soldiers of the Dazhen Empire. But when they were protecting an expedition to visit the area, they accidentally disappeared. The purpose of my visit. Just find them! ”
Ron looked at Li Wenzai in surprise and exclaimed, "Wow! Lee, you are so enviable, you actually have two lovers! ”
"Rons, what about you, what are you doing here?"
"I'm looking for someone too! My dad disappeared here thirteen years ago. But I always believed that he was still alive! Even if he is dead, I will find his body! ”
After hesitating for a moment, Li Wenzai said, "The reason why you found this oasis is because of a helicopter. In fact, I have already found two very lucky special forces soldiers yesterday. From them. I learned the truth about their attack! ”
Ronston's eyes widened and he looked nervously at Li Wenzai!
"They were attacked by a mysterious humanoid life that seemed to have a wonderful ability to form a transparent shield outside the body that could block bullet attacks."
"Oh my God, you can block the bullet!"
"Aren't our guns useless?"
"Damn, we're going to face a bunch of monsters!"
Those mercenaries suddenly became in a commotion, although they were on the verge of life and death, but they were facing the same kind who knew their roots! However, this time, it is a terrifying anomaly to face, even a terrifying anomaly that can block bullets with a protective shield!
Li Wenzai continued: "These humanoids ride terrible monsters, galloping in the desert, wearing armor and holding cold weapons, very strong! They didn't kill those special soldiers and expeditions, they took them away! Rons, maybe you're right, your father might still be alive, in the Underworld. ”
Ronston was excited, he finally saw hope of saving his father!
But at this time, the mercenaries retreated!
"Mr. Rons, although we accepted the hire, we didn't know that we were about to face such a terrible thing, which was beyond the scope of our contract, so we are canceling this hire."
Ronston was in a hurry and shouted, "NO, how can you tear up the sacred contract!" You've broken the mercenary rules! ”
"Mr. Rons, we have not broken the contract, it is the fact that it has conflicted with the scope of the contract, and we have the right to do so! Sorry, we're leaving. ”
With that, he ordered his men to call for a helicopter to arrive.
Ron tried to pay them more, but they were decided. If you have money, you have to spend your life! If you fight with your own kind, you can survive as long as you are careful, but you are about to face a foreign race with a protective shield, so you will be sent to death at all!
Rons's face turned pale, and he roared loudly, cursing.
Those mercenaries were unmoved, and Li Wenzai watched with interest from the side. With a roar, the helicopter landed, and the mercenaries boarded the plane and quickly left.
Li Wenzai was a little surprised that the helicopter turned out to be an armed transport helicopter of the Western Xinjiang Military Region! He sighed in his heart, this means that the empire is strong enough, and with this self-confidence and confidence, he dares to allow these international mercenaries to enter the country to carry out tasks! This is simply impossible to change to the earth in the previous life!
Looking at the dejected Rons, Li Wenzai asked, "Rons, don't you want to find your father and rescue him?" ”
"Of course I want to, but the two of us can't do it at all!"
Li Wenzai shook his head and said: "That's not necessarily, everything is possible!" Cheer up, and don't forget, your dad is still waiting for you to save him! ”
Ron was a resolute person in the end, and with the encouragement of Li Wenzai, he quickly mustered up the courage to set off!
Lee Moon-jae took care of Rons, so the speed of the march was not as fast as yesterday, at the same time. He is also constantly looking through the electromagnetic force field to see through the underground world.
"Rons. in your father's notes. Is there any record of where the entrance to the underground secret realm is!? ”
"There's a mention of it, and it seems to be related to scorpions." As he spoke, Ron took out his father's notebook and looked at it.
Li Wenzai came to his side and looked, there was a jade pendant drawn in his notebook, and the jade pendant was carved with a scorpion pattern!
This jade plaque made Li Wenzai's heart move, before he found the skeleton of a strange beast in the desert, and on one of the teeth of the strange beast, there was a necklace!
The pendant on top of this necklace. It is a jade pendant in this shape!
Lucky! Li Wenzai rejoiced in his heart, maybe this is the will of heaven!
The two walked along the map Gallaher had left behind. As time passed, the heat exhausted the two. Li Wenzai found a place to set up a tent, then took out cold beer and ice cream, and shouted, "Rons, come in and rest for a while!" ”
Ron wasn't polite either, putting down his backpack and getting in.
But when she saw the steaming beer and ice cream, she was immediately confused! Looking at Li Wenzai in disbelief, he shouted, "Li, where did you get the cold beer and ice cream?" ”
Li Wenzai smiled: "I want to sacrifice to the god of the desert with some things, and ask the god of the desert to give me cold beer and ice cream." ”
Ron was speechless. You just don't want to talk about it, and you can find an excuse for the past.
In fact, this is a disguised euphemism for refusing to answer. Rons felt more and more mysterious about Li Wenzai, he simply didn't bother to think about it, grabbed a cold beer and drank it!
The beer that Li Wenzai bought was the beer manufacturing process that the empire drank from Germany, and then produced the beer, which had a delicate foam and excellent taste.
Rons, who is French, was not interested in German beer, but now he feels that this beer is really enjoyable!
"Ha~~~! Lee, it's amazing to be able to drink beer in the middle of this hot desert! ”
Li Wenzai said with a smile: "There will be many magical things in the future, and you will slowly see it." Come, eat a tub of ice cream and fried desert scorpions, it's a rare delicacy. ”
Ron wasn't polite, he took it and ate it!
After eating, the two continued on their way. As Li Wenzai said, there are many magical things.
Miraculous thing 1: During walking, Li Wenzai casually threw him a cold pear to quench his thirst.
Miraculous thing 2: When resting in the evening, Li Wenzai actually took out a barbecue grill, smokeless charcoal and all kinds of meat and vegetable skewers!
Magical thing 3: Also when he was resting at night, Li Wenzai actually took out his notebook to watch movies and take out a game console to play games!
More and more magical things are happening, and Ron goes from being amazed at the beginning to gradually numbing later.
Now, Li Wenzai is conjuring up a helicopter, and he will not be surprised.
For the first time, Ron felt that walking in the desert was not a very dangerous thing to do. thirsty, chilled mineral water and beer; Hungry, there are a variety of delicacies from the Dazhen Empire.
After all kinds of worries, Ron found that the scenery of the original desert was also unique.
Of course, it's very annoying in windy weather.
The wind and sand were howling, and both of them wrapped themselves very tightly, wearing goggles, and carrying special equipment to shield their mouths and noses. Thanks to the wind and sand, Ron saw another miraculous thing!
In the mobile board room, take a shower and soak in a hot bath. Then, with a cup of hot coffee, Ron felt that his twenty-five years of life had been completely turned upside down!
"Li, are you the legendary immortal of the Great Zhen Empire? You can conjure up all sorts of things at your fingertips! ”
Li Wenzai shook his head and smiled: "Rons, there are no immortals in this world, and the so-called immortals are actually some creatures that are more powerful than humans. It's just that they have powerful and mysterious powers that surpass human common sense. ”
Ron looked at Li Wenzai with blazing eyes, and asked with anticipation: "Li, it is obvious that you are the one who has this powerful and mysterious power, and I also want to have this power, can you teach me?" I can pay whatever price I can! ”
Li Wenzai thought about it for a while, and next he was about to face the battle of the mysterious race in the underground secret realm, if he didn't let this guy have some strength, he still had to protect him, then it would be troublesome!
If he has a certain strength, he can also become his own help.
Thinking of this, Li Wenzai nodded and said, "Rons, I can let you have superpowers, but I want you to swear that you will never use this power to actively harm Dazhenren!" ”
Ronston was ecstatic, and quickly raised his right hand and swore: "I, Rons. Gail swore that he would never use the power that Li passed on to me to actively harm any of the Great Zhenren! If I break my oath, I will be sent to hell forever! ”
Li Wenzai was quite satisfied with this oath, and took out a fiery red crystal and implanted it in Rons's body. (To be continued......)
