Chapter 406: The Secret Scroll of the Empress Dowager of the West (2)

Suddenly, the man behind Gu Qingcheng fell headlong, his body curled up, and his legs kept twitching, like a big shrimp on the verge of death.

Gu Qingcheng didn't look back, she was very calm, knowing that it was useless to turn back at this time, everyone's fate was in the hands of Nazi soldiers.

"What the hell is going on with his body?" I asked.

"Mr. David has a terrible disease, which, in my judgment, comes from a bacterium in an ancient tomb, and although it is not highly contagious, it is also very terrible." Gu Qingcheng replied with a wry smile.

I suspect that this Mr. David was a tomb robber in the first place, otherwise how could he have contracted that kind of underground bacteria?

"There is no medicine in the city, there is no treatment at all, it can only depend on his creation." I say.

The leader agreed with my words and nodded, "Yes, during the war, there was a shortage of medicine. This is true not only of the Northern Alliance, but also in our army. ”

"Mr. David's identity is very important." Gu Qingcheng looked at me.

I read some kind of subtext in her eyes, which was inconvenient to say in person, lest the leader hear.

"I'll take a look, what the hell is going on?" I took a few steps forward and leaned over next to David to observe his face.

His face was very ugly, close to purple-gray, and his eyes could no longer be opened, showing a very tired appearance.

"Mr. David, how are you feeling right now?" I asked in a low voice.

"I'm going to die, the soul of the tomb...... Just around me. I alarmed their slumber, and they ...... It's time to ask for your life......" he said intermittently.

"You're having a fever, it's not too much of a problem, you have to have faith." I say.

The human body destroys the virus by having a fever, however, once the body temperature exceeds 38 degrees Celsius, the human brain is in a state of confusion, accompanied by gibberish.

"I need a cool towel." I turned back to the leader.

Of course, I didn't expect him to help me find a cold towel, but I wanted to tell him that I had to find something, not run away.

The leader shrugged, "Go ahead and look for it, I'm not worried about you running away anyway." The big names and antique dealers are here, which directly weakens your value. ”

I smiled bitterly, knowing that in the eyes of the Nazi soldiers, only the events of the Berlin Chancellery were important, and other people or events were just accidents, which were not worth caring about, and did not need to be reported to Berlin.

I went back to the basement and found a bathroom.

Luckily, I also found an old towel on the shelf. Without it, I would have tore off a sleeve of my dress to serve as a towel.

I turned on the tap, and the tap water was so cold that I shivered three times in a row.

Next, I wet the towel, wring it out slightly, and headed back to the truck.

"Thank you." Gu Tingcheng said.

I believe that every word she says now has a deep meaning, and with Gu Chengcheng's wisdom, it is very easy to hide from that leader.

"Your friend is my friend." As I spoke, I lay David's body flat and folded the towel into long strips and applied it to his forehead.

At this temperature, the role of a wet towel is equivalent to an ice cube, which can have a good cooling effect, and it only takes a few minutes to calm David's mind.

The Nazi soldiers were very efficient, and several times they came and went, and there were piles of wooden boxes right next to the trucks.

The boss was very proud because each of the contents of these wooden boxes was worth a fortune and would make him a billionaire. What's more, his goal is directly on the axis of the earth, and he will definitely be able to profit while the great powers are at war.

Unexpectedly, I thought of Ming Shui Sleeve - the dead princess. When the capital fell, she also took advantage of the chaos to escape, went straight to Dunhuang, and found a clear way in the troubled times.

It can be seen from this that no matter how chaotic the outside world is, as long as a person can calmly find a way out, he can save his life, and take advantage of the chaos to make a profit, and become a winner in the troubled times. For smart people, troubled times are opportunities, and it depends on how to grasp them.

"It looks like my plan has worked." The leader said to himself.

Of course, he has the right to be complacent, because he is the biggest beneficiary of the whole sneak attack. Whether it was a Nazi soldier or a Northern Union army, the result of the fierce fighting between the two sides was to enrich his pockets. I am afraid that this is something that the Berlin Chancellery did not think of either. In any war in the world, there will always be people who make war profits, and this is determined by the inferior nature of human beings.

"The real secret is about to come to light." Gu Qingcheng said softly.

Countless people have given their lives for this secret, and countless countries have been involved in wars. To be sure, humans shouldn't have so many secrets. In other words, human beings are victimized by their own curiosity, like moths to a fire, and they go forward and get caught up in the whirlpool, which is the greatest tragedy.

"How did you and Mr. David get here?" I asked.

"Like you, it's been a complicated process. However, I am sure that everyone will have a chance to go back and be unscathed. Gu Tingcheng said with confidence.

"I'm afraid that Mr. David won't be able to survive, and looking at his current appearance, he may be ...... in a few days" I have not the slightest optimism about David's situation. Injuries and illnesses combined with severe cold often make it difficult for people with slightly lower physical fitness to survive this catastrophe.

David snorted softly, his eyes slowly opened, and his azure blue eyes rolled silently, first looking at me, and then turning to Gu Qingcheng.

I suddenly noticed that his eyes had changed, from the original exhaustion and weakness to full of energy.

"It turned out to be all pretended." I understand.

"Mr. David has acted in stage plays before." Gu Tingcheng reminded with a pun.

"That's really good, life is like a play, drama is like life, and people who can act can often turn danger into disaster." I also responded with words.

"History is originally a play, and whether it is wonderful or not depends on everyone to play. Finding the scroll here is part of the play. Mr. Long, we are glad that our goals are becoming more and more compatible. I have always felt that from Hong Kong Island to the mainland, only Causeway Bay Long Shao is the wisest person. Gu Tingcheng said again.

I shook my head: "Miss Gu, in fact, for a long time, I have forgotten Causeway Bay and the rivers and lakes. I live with my own goals and responsibilities, which are different from you. ”

"No, we have a lot in common, such as not knowing our origins." Gu Qingcheng immediately retorted.

I don't want to discuss this issue because it's too personal to say in such an occasion.

"Is he awake?" The leader asked from afar.

Gu Tingcheng mentioned that David was infected with germs in the ancient tomb, but this sentence had already scared the leader away.

"It's okay, he's awake, and his body should be fine." I replied.

"I immediately ordered the soldiers to load their vehicles, and in an hour, drive towards the axis of the earth." The leader said.

The treasures in the museum are incomplete, and even a tenfold increase in the number of trucks is only a drop in the bucket. Of course, taking such a large convoy on the road can easily attract the attention of both warring parties. At that point, the leader's wishful thinking will come to naught.

"We take the scrolls, we take the big shots, and that's the key core." Gu Tingcheng lowered his voice and told me quietly.

"Then you can only fight with each other." I say.

"That's right." David also spoke softly.

"We probably won't be able to eat each other." I'm a little worried.

Gu Qingcheng shook his head: "It's okay, David will take care of everything." ”

I'm a little surprised, David's disguise skills are so clever that he can fool everyone by pretending to be sick and dead, which I can't do anyway. Now, no matter what Gu Tingcheng says he can do, I have three points to believe first.

"I'll take care of all these people, and you two will protect the big guys." David said.

"How do you get them?" I asked.

The corners of David's mouth turned up, and a silent smile rolled out.

"You don't care, I said he could handle it, and he could do it. After a while, the battle will start, and we will go straight to the basement to protect the big guys. Gu Tingcheng said.

"On the scrolls and iron buckets, there are dragon scales inverse." I reminded her.

"That's the secret of the dragon, and the eight scrolls belong to eight countries, each with dragon scales. When the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded, it was equivalent to dividing the secret of Julong into eight and holding one copy each. When they meet to divide the dragon's secrets, it is tantamount to dividing the world. Gu Tingcheng said.

"If we discovered the Jade Dragon, it would really be a geobiological feat that opened up a new field of research." I say.

"Mr. Long, do you really think that the problem of dragons belongs to the category of biology? No, it belongs to the category of metaphysics, it is a divine question, and it is a major proposition that transcends materialism and idealism. Gu Tingcheng said.

In my opinion, the dispute between idealism and materialism has long been meaningless. Even human beings are emotional creatures, and many opinions are completely subjective, so what else should be materialistic? In reality, many people think of the dragon as a dinosaur or King Kong, thinking that it is a prehistoric monster with no mind and a far lower level of civilization than humans. However, when Gu Qingcheng regarded the dragon as a part of metaphysics, it was tantamount to elevating the dragon and making it higher than that of humans and on a par with the immortals.

"I agree with you. I say.

Gu Tingcheng smiled: "I know that you can understand everything in any field of knowledge, and you don't need to explain too much." It's really easy to talk to you. My brother's evaluation of you is not bad at all, and his wisdom is outstanding, ahead of his time. ”

I can't afford the false praise of Gu Tingguo and Gu Tingcheng, two brothers and sisters, I have a clear understanding of my ability level, and I will never be arrogant.

"You mentioned the secret scroll of the Empress Dowager Xi before, and I believe that your brothers and sisters must have a deep understanding of the issue of tomb robbery and treasure hunting. However, I will not pry into the secrets, but I hope that what we are doing now will help protect China's national interests. I said.

Gu Tingcheng smiled again: "Of course it helps, I can tell you plainly, all secrets arise because of the dragon." The further we explore, the closer we get to the dragon and the greatest secret of the Chinese nation for 5,000 years. ”
