"Alright then, you can explain everything that's going on here." Tang Shuxing stepped forward and stared at Si Zhengnan's face that seemed to have melted, "If this is really a mine, if this place is really blown up, do you know what the consequences of Lu Dao are?" Volcanoes will erupt, and this kind of massive eruption will definitely make headlines all over the world, because one fifth of the country will be in flames because of the wildfires. ”

"I'm really not lying!" Si Zhengnan was still stubborn and insisted on his own statement.

Tang Shuxing pulled out the Yin Bee and handed it to Gu Huaiyi: "Gu Maniac, cut off one of his legs, take your time, and give him the most reluctant." ”

"Are you crazy?" Si Zhengnan shouted, looking down at Gu Huaiyi slowly cutting his calf with a yin bee, and half of the blade had already sunk into the flesh.

"I say! I say! Si Zhengnan struggled, "Take the knife away first!" ”

Gu Huaiyi just let go, took the handle of the knife, and did not take out the knife, and then gestured there with his hand, indicating that he only needed to push hard, and his leg would be wasted.

"Listen, what I'm going to say next is what Zhang Zhikhan told me, I didn't know what to say before I came, I swear! Zhang Zhikhan said that this mine was discovered more than ten years ago, but they did not have the ability to dig it, and at the same time, they also knew that there were other precious minerals hidden under it, which were more valuable than diamonds and gold, so they spread the news and let others play the role of pioneers......" Si Zhengnan said loudly, and the face full of rotten flesh kept squirming.

After the news of the minerals here spread, many international companies rushed to hear the news. However, the most people retreated, because it was too dangerous, not to mention, there was still war here, so a group of people came and went, and the next group came and went, but the exploration of the volcano continued, until they found a precious blue diamond mine below.

"Zhang Zhikhan is not Lord Huang Zhong's subordinate at all, he doesn't obey him, so when he reported the information to Lord Huang Zhong, he deliberately lied and concealed the past. He couldn't let Lord Huang Zhong know that the high-level of Dao Shangdu had sent people out to explore many years ago. Si Zhengnan still looked vigilantly at Gu Huaiyi, who was squatting on the ground and looking up at him. For fear that the other party would slap his palm on the back of the Yin Bee's knife.

"Whose subordinate is Zhang Zhikhan in Shangdu?" Tang Shuxing asked again, and at the same time understood that the six law controllers were not so harmonious with each other, and they were also intrigued.

Si Zhengnan looked at him and shook his head: "Can I know the Dao?" Could he possibly tell me? Get the knife out of the way! ”

Gu Huaiyi touched the yin bee embedded in Si Zhengnan's leg with his fingers and smiled at him. And don't take it away.

"The Book of Earth!" Tang Shuxing affirmed. "It must have been after the Japanese brought the Jiming Book...... No. It was the Japanese they found who brought both the Japanese and the "Book of the Earth" into Shangdu, and then carried out mining explorations in various parts of the world. This is how the mine was discovered. ”

"This was built by a different company?" Ji Kefeng knocked on the steel frame supported next to him.

"Yes." Si Zhengnan nodded, "Most of them withdrew halfway through, and other companies bought and continued to do it, but most of the companies withdrew after the risk assessment and found that it was difficult to recover the cost, and eight companies finally gave up, and the last company was a drilling and exploration company in Dallas, USA, called 'Marco Exploration', and there was their logo on the steel frame next to it." ”

"Marco Exploration?" Tian Yehan stepped forward to the steel frame, and finally saw the logo text of the company, and then turned his head to look at Tang Shuxingdao, "This is a shell company, and guess who his parent company is?" ”

"Sharman Power." Tang Shuxing, Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng almost said in unison, this answer is too simple, there is only one company active in Asaya now.

"Yes, Sharman Power." Tian Yehan scratched his head and said, "This company is everywhere, we have all purchased anti-tank missiles and some advanced optical auxiliary instruments from them, they have camouflaged offices all over the world, as long as you carefully check the accounts of those companies, you will find that they are all on the verge of bankruptcy at a loss, but they are still supporting, and there is a steady stream of money that has been washed and cleaned." ”

"But there's something I don't understand." Ji Kefeng asked Si Zhengnan again, "Before, you said that this place was occupied by the rebels, and you said that the government army occupied it, but after we came, we found a lot of camps of the National Liberation Front along the way, and the government army would not be stupid enough to surround them, right?" Materials can't be brought in, and minerals can't be shipped out. ”

Si Zhengnan was silent, just nodded and said: "Part of the information reported by Zhang Zhikhan is true, that is, at first, it was occupied by the rebels, and later it was occupied by the government army, and that was because ...... Si Zhengnan didn't have a "because" for half a day.

Tang Shuxing looked at Si Zhengnan's embarrassed appearance, and suddenly thought of the answer with a clapped hand. Although this answer is ridiculous, the facts in front of him and the previous actions of Quinn, the representative of Sharman Power, make him have to believe it.

"Sharman Power, the Astaya government army and the National Liberation Front are in a gang, they are acting!" Tang Shuxing pointed at Si Zhengnan, "I'm not wrong, right?" ”

Si Zhengnan closed his eyes, acquiesced, and said after a long time: "This fact is also what I saw with my own eyes, when Zhang Zhikhm and I came here, we saw a helicopter carrying people from the government army and Shaman Power Company to come here to meet and make peace with the leaders of the National Liberation Front, and the three parties shook hands and said goodbye. ”

"Damn, they're all a bunch of bastards who make war money!" Tian Yehan sat down, "The so-called 'cannon fires ten thousand taels of gold', the high-level of the three parties have an agreement, and the front-line personnel below do not know what to do, it is no wonder that the National Liberation Front later gave up its political demands and turned to pure military operations." Because once there is a political demand, it is easy for the major powers to intervene, and once a ceasefire is reached and a provisional coalition government is formed, there is a problem of mutual supervision, and it will not be easy for the profits from the mines to fall into the pockets of private individuals. ”

"Golden Frenzy seems to be just a pawn with no truth." Gu Huaiyi got up and said, "With them, this scene will be played out, but you didn't talk about the most troublesome thing." ”

"No matter how troublesome it is, let me go now. Let's go find the female drill, or we'll all die! Si Zhengnan struggled.

Although Tang Shuxing and the others all knew the consequences of wasting time, the situation they were facing now was too complicated, and who would dare to take the next step if they didn't figure it out? Then Gu Huaiyi's words made everyone feel like they had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Sharman Power is just the surface, if you think about it, Sharman Power has the approval of the U.S. Congress to sell weapons here, and the government army is supported by the Americans, in other words, the U.S. government also has a part in this mine, which is not difficult to explain why they are not letting the golden frenzy in. Treat them only as pawns. With such a powerful chess piece and being kept in the dark, this play can't be exciting. Gu Huaiyi said to everyone with a smile.

A piece of cake has already been divided by three people, and there must not be a fourth. Fifth ......

“…… Other words. Now we have broken into the control of the most powerful military power in the world? Tian Yehan's face sank. I don't recommend going straight against the Americans. ”

"Are you afraid of the Americans?" Ji Kefeng had a fearless expression.

"Yes, I'm afraid." Tian Yehan actually said such a sentence, "I was once arrested by the CIA." Half a month, that half a month is longer than my life, they can make you succumb without leaving a scar, and break your soul......"

"To go is to die, and to go back is to die." Si Zhengnan said in a low voice, "But I still choose to go, I have to go back, I have to go back to Shangdu." ”

Tang Shuxing looked at Si Zhengnan, and he also knew in his heart that he was desperate to go back, maybe it was also because of Xia Jiezhu.

"Ye Han, you can go." Tang Shuxing looked at Tian Yehan and said, "I have no problem with Master Ji, and we won't blame you, this matter has nothing to do with you in the first place." ”

"Nothing to do with me? I've been involved for a long time, from the moment I was tricked into Astaya, I didn't think the three of us met this time by coincidence, there weren't so many coincidences, everything was just a trick set up by man. ”

Ji Kefeng looked at Tian Yehan and was very puzzled: "You have been wandering in bullets for so many years, will you still be deceived?" ”

"No, I have a reason, a reason that I have to come." Tian Yehan said this and did not say any more.

Tang Shuxing and Ji Kefeng also tacitly agreed not to ask again, they know Tian Yehan's character very well, this kid has always had something to say, but if you encounter something he doesn't want to say, you can't pry his mouth open even with a shovel.

When they were found to be in trouble when they were children, Tang Shuxing, who had bad ideas, would immediately pretend to be crazy and stupid, and at the same time put on an honest and honest appearance to guide adults to deviate from the direction of the investigation. And Ji Kefeng just said that he didn't know anything, and he would swear and swear to keep himself out of the matter.

What about Tian Yehan? He absolutely kept his mouth shut, didn't say a word, and people's first reaction was that he instigated it, but even if he was beaten half to death by his father, he wouldn't say half a word, so that every time his parents gave in first.

Therefore, later Tang Shuxing always joked that Tian Yehan had received high-intensity counter-interrogation training since he was a child.

"Really, Ye Han, you go, we have to go because there is no other choice." Tang Shuxing pulled out the dagger nailed to Si Zhengnan's palm and handed it back to Gu Huaiyi.

Tian Yehan shook his head, didn't say a word, just glanced at Tang Shuxing, walked to the passage first, and climbed down the iron ladder without hesitation. Tang Shuxing and Ji Kefeng glanced at each other, and Ji Kefeng immediately followed, followed by Si Zhengnan, who was scolding but didn't dare to say too loudly.

Gu Huaiyi waited for them to leave, and then he stepped forward and said to Tang Shuxing: "This Tian Yehan is trustworthy, I like this kind of straightforward and bloody person, not so pretentious." ”

Tang Shuxing unceremoniously grabbed Gu Huaiyi: "Gu madman, you listen to me, whether you are or Ji Ye, everyone is in the same boat, if you don't work together, if this boat capsizes, everyone will die." After Tang Shuxing finished speaking, he added, "No matter how wrong Master Ji is, he is always my brother!" ”

"What about me?" Gu Huaiyi was still smiling, "Am I your brother?" ”

"I want to treat you like a brother, but you're crazy, and you never consult with us in what you do." Tang Shuxing shook his head and said.

"Real brothers have a tacit understanding, and we have a little tacit understanding between us, right?" Gu Huaiyi still smiled, "There is also between you and Tian Yehan, but you and Ji Kefeng do not, the only thing that maintains the brotherhood between you now is childhood memories and the father who is also missing, you and him know it." ”

Tang Shuxing was silent, he really knew that what Gu Huaiyi said was the truth. And Ji Kefeng is too capable of causing trouble, he is too simple, and he wants to save face, this kind of person is what he will avoid when he meets him in his later life.

"Again, if one day I stab you and then die, will you save me or kill me?" Gu Huaiyi gently broke Tang Shuxing's hand, this time he put away his smile and walked backwards towards the entrance, saying as he walked. "You'll save me. Definitely. ”

"Yes, I will." Tang Shuxing stood in place, "But the reason why I saved you is also to kill you again!" ”

"You're lying—" Gu Huaiyi pointed at Tang Shuxing, turned around and slid down the iron ladder.

Tang Shuxing took a deep breath. How do you think Gu Huaiyi can see people so thoroughly? And as if something had been predicted in the future? Is it really what he said when he met him? He has a huge plan that needs to be himself and Master Ji?

Below. Tian Yehan and Si Zhengnan, who slid down the iron ladder, landed in a rectangular iron cage, the sides of which were fixed to the inner wall of the volcano and hung by iron chains. Twenty meters below is the semi-cold magma.

Why do you say semi-cold? There are three types of volcanoes: active, extinct and dormant, and the volcano they are in is a semi-dormant volcano, which is defined because it has not erupted at all since the volcano was discovered, but the magma in the crater has remained semi-liquid and semi-solid.

Si Zhengnan pointed to the mouth of the cave on the other side of the long iron cage and said: "That is the entrance and exit of the mining area, and because there is only such a small entrance, it is necessary to transport the ore out of the manpower, which is also the reason why so many companies finally gave up." ”

Tian Yehan nodded, this does not require too much professional knowledge to understand, no one dares to dig and expand the tunnel on the inner wall of the crater, if it collapses, let alone whether the volcano erupts, if this "funnel" shaped thing is dug through and destroys the passage of its underground magma, the magma flowing out of the gap will cause a catastrophe.

At this time, Ji Kefeng slid down, and when he didn't stand firmly, Gu Huaiyi also slipped down, if it wasn't for the iron cage next to him, Ji Kefeng would have been knocked down immediately, but he was also scalded by the iron cage and screamed.

Ji Kefeng glared at Gu Huaiyi angrily, Tian Yehan also frowned, although he already knew what happened in the Gu Hunting Ground, but Gu Huaiyi kept holding on to this matter, obviously deliberately embarrassing Ji Kefeng.

Tang Shuxing also slipped down at this time, and Si Zhengnan immediately walked towards the entrance of the cave, worried that this iron cage corridor would not be able to bear the weight of so many people, and said as he walked: "The outermost layer of the mining area is a crystal mine, which is all worthless crystals and other things, but Zhang Zhikhan said that in addition to the blue diamond, other precious minerals are different from what we see on weekdays, and they are another substance." ”

"What substance?" Tang Shuxing asked after him.

"He didn't explain." Si Zhengnan said, and Tian Yehan drilled into the entrance of the mining area.

As soon as everyone got in, they were stunned by the scene in front of them, although Si Zhengnan had already said before that the outermost layer was just a worthless crystal mine, most of which were crystal rough stones and the like, but under the strong light in the mine, it even reflected a colorful light, reflecting on the surrounding walls of the cave, coupled with the white gas that surged from time to time underground, making the mine mouth feel like a fairyland.

"With a gas mask." Si Zhengnan opened the iron cabinet on the side of the mine mouth, took out two gas masks from it and handed them to Tian Yehan and Gu Huaiyi respectively, "If you go deeper, the carbon dioxide content will increase." ”

Gu Huaiyi and Tian Yehan put on gas masks, and everyone was led by Si Zhengnan towards the depths of the mine.

"Was this mine dug by man?" Tang Shuxing shook his head, "How do you transport the soil out of the city?" ”

"It's just that the exit is artificially dug out, it's strange here, it's all naturally formed, and the exposed raw ore can be seen on all sides of the cave wall, you come and see here." Si Zhengnan stood on tiptoe and pointed to the fault between the two crystal rough stones above his head, and when he shone it with a flashlight, there was a golden light.

"Gold mines?" Tian Yehan was surprised, this completely subverted his geographical common sense.

"Yes, not only diamonds have been found, but also gold mines, to be exact, gold veins, which belong to a type of vein minerals, but they cannot be excavated in a large area, once the fault is dug up, this cave will have to face collapse." Si Zhengnan continued to walk forward, "There is another thing that makes the people here unhappy, but makes Sharman Power Company happy, the diamonds mined in this mining area are 2 or even 3 times harder than ordinary diamonds. ”

"High?" Gu Huaiyi understood, "In other words, it can't be used as a diamond for handicrafts." ”

Tian Yehan took over: "It is harder than ordinary diamonds, it should belong to impact drills, if I remember correctly, the scientific name should be called diamond cube crystal, which can be used in industry and military, no wonder Sharman Power Company will be happy." ”

"What about the blue diamonds?" Ji Kefeng asked a key question.

Si Zhengnan stopped: "Blue diamonds are very rare, after the blue diamonds were found here, the government army and the liberation front were very happy, and they found so many at one time, it is no exaggeration to say that the blue diamonds here are dug out, not only can they reshape Astaya, and it is not a problem to buy the surrounding countries, but Shaman Power has urgently blocked the blue diamond area." ”

"For what?" Tang Shu asked.

Si Zhengnan pointed to Tang Shuxing's waist bag, which contained the "scrapped" blue diamond: "I don't know what the reason is, but when Zhang Zhikhan and I touched it, we found that there was a 'radiation' logo hanging on it. ”

"Shhhhh (To be continued......)
