Chapter 181: The Mystery of the Bottom of the Lake
As the shaman's sacrificial activities came to an end, the tragedy that happened on Lake Baikal a hundred years ago gradually came to an end, and Zheng Dong and others returned to the shaman's side with a heavy heart.
"Did you find it?" The shaman asked in a calm tone.
Zheng Dong stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the bottle, it's time for me to fulfill my promise." ”
The corners of the shaman's mouth raised, a look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he took out a palm-sized bottle from his pocket, Zheng Dong took it and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go to the camp to prepare." ”
The others were puzzled, because Zheng Dong said yesterday that he didn't need to prepare anything, so he followed him back to the camp halfway up the mountain, and when he walked to his tent, Zheng Dong whispered: "Lev, you bring the communication soldier here." ”
"Understand, give orders, and the others will be on guard." Lev had a keen insight into the change in Zheng Dong's attitude.
Tonya heard it and followed her into the tent, and the communications soldier then followed Lev into the tent, "What's wrong?" Tonya asked.
"Look." Zheng Dong took out his mobile phone and played the video he recorded of the general's wife, and at the same time, he said to the communication soldier: "Please contact your boss Andre as soon as possible, check the shaman number 005, and see if you can provide more relevant information." ”
After Tonya and Lev watched the video for the third time, they suddenly spoke at the same time, "The position is not right. "There is something wrong with the shaman."
Replayed the video, Zheng Dong pressed pause at a certain time with his fingers, and a small figure of a shaman appeared in the upper left corner of the screen, but the figure could be distinguished, and the high-definition pixels of the mobile phone illuminated him very clearly.
"yes, that's it." Tonya said, pointing to the shaman in the picture.
Enlarged the characters in the picture, Tonya and Lev gasped when they saw it, this person was the shaman who was talking to Zheng Dong just now.
Lev analyzed: "There are three suspicious points, according to the time, he should be a centenarian, but he is the same as the screenshot picture, he looks like he is in his thirties." Secondly, the background of his position is a slope with trees in the distance, and the psychic activities just now are all on a bare rock, and the background is a stone wall, which excludes the possibility that he has strayed into the camera. The most terrifying thing is that he seems to be performing the same rituals as today, with the pattern on the slope basically the same as on the rock. ”
"You mean he committed this tragedy a hundred years ago! Manipulating the weather, so many people froze to death, why? So cruel! Tonya said.
A cold glint flashed in Zheng Dong's eyes, and he turned to the communication soldier, "What is the result of the investigation?" ”
"It's the same as before, except for an extra name, and his name is Urizi." The Signal Corps replied.
Zheng Dong thought for a moment, "Let's change our perspective, we don't need to look for Andre, since he has been operating in this area, you can find out the large-scale deaths that have occurred in this neighborhood in the past hundred years." ”
When the communications soldiers checked, a long list of incidents appeared on the computer screen, such as "the disappearance of Trovsky exiles," "the mass disappearance of miners," "the disappearance of German soldiers captured in World War II in Siberia," and "the mass exile of several Lukes in Siberia."
The mass disappearance of most of the population in these incidents ranged from a few dozen to tens of thousands, and the cumulative number of missing people is almost equal to the total number of deaths of the remnants of Kolchak on Lake Baikal. Moreover, they are all in this vicinity.
There is no factual basis to support whether these events can be linked to Urizi, and the reports at the time were very simple, without in-depth investigation, because most of the people in the incident were despicable in that particular era, and the mainstream society did not care about their survival, and the disappearance or death was just a cold number.
"Okay, let's not speculate, but be careful, I'll go to the bottom of the lake and see, what's there?" Zheng Dong set off.
When he arrived at the lake, Zheng Dong saw two other people standing next to Urizi, holding diving equipment and underwater cameras in their hands, and when he approached, he asked, "Do they go down too?" ”
"Well, in order to ensure your safety, I helped you melt the ice in the lake." Urizi laughed wistfully.
"Let's be together, then." Zheng Dong smiled, took the lead to the edge of the rock, and jumped forward.
Zheng Dong's water-repellent beads played a role, just by putting it in the Qiankun bag, he could breathe freely underwater, no different from on land, his hearing and vision were not affected underwater, and his cultivation could already see far underwater.
There was a sound of plopping and plopping two dives from behind, Zheng Dong swam unhurriedly, and the two people turned on the camera and followed him from a distance.
After some searching, he finally saw the possible ruins, first a few stone pillars, and then the shape of an ancient palace common in China, Zheng Dong accelerated and swam over, and saw more clearly, this stone palace looks very simple, at least the previous buildings of the Han and Tang dynasties.
Zheng Dong swam in, and in the third hall, he saw a huge stone statue of Peng's head, what is this enshrined? He searched in the memories given to him by his master Chen Duan, and there was a sentence in "Zhuangzi Getaway", "There is a fish in the North Underworld, and its name is Kun." The Kun is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is; Turned into a bird, its name is Peng. Peng's back, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. ”
This is the place in the North Underworld, Lake Baikal! That is, the home of the demon master Kunpeng. This Kunpeng is a key figure in the Ancient Lich Wars.
After Pangu opened the world, the first life born in this world was the demon, the original demon was extremely powerful, but a big war broke out within the demon clan, in order to compete for the dominance of the world, there was a great war between the dragon clan and the phoenix clan, also known as the dragon and phoenix first tribulation.
After the decline of the dragon and phoenix clans, the demon clan declined, and the witch clan and the human race were born, the demon clan has established the first generation of heaven at this time, Kunpeng is regarded as a demon master, is one of the managers of the heavenly court, this demon is insidious and cunning, tricky. During the Lich War, seeing that the situation was not good, he stole Hetu and Luoshu, and escaped from the battle.
After the Great Lich War, he eventually disappeared, and legend has it that he fled to the west on the deathbed of the Demon Emperor Taiyi to prepare for the future revival of the Demon Clan.
After reading this memory, Zheng Dong had a question in his heart, Uriqi is a witch clan, could it be that he is here to suppress the ancient gods of the demon clan? After the Lich War, did Kunpeng run back to his birthplace and hide, and did he also believe that the most dangerous place is the safest place?
The big snake is a member of the Nuwa clan, and the Kunpeng demon master later exchanged the stolen Hetu and Luo Shu for the forgiveness of the demon clan's sage Nuwa, in order to ask the demon clan to accept him again as a deserter. The big snake was here to protect Kunpeng, and with Kunpeng's ability, he didn't need to be protected by others if he wasn't seriously injured.
Kunpeng is indeed here! The bottle in your hand, did you do as Urizi instructed?
When he saw the two people behind him, he also followed, and he kept following.
Standing here, nothing would happen, Zheng Dong made up his mind and put the bottle on top of the stone statue Dapeng's head.
As soon as the bottle was lowered, it was stable.
The ground shook violently, and the water became muddy.
