Chapter 15: Son of Bohai
"At that time, the warriors of the wolf head and the Iron Eagle Department not only took away the Sealing Sword from Khan City, but also took away the son of the leader of the remnants of the Bohai Sea, in order to exchange for the 'Son of Bohai', the legendary attendant designated by the prophet, the Han priest exchanged the Son of Bohai with himself, his family, and the servants, and swore to guard the Sealing Sword in the Iron Eagle Department forever, I am the descendant of the priest, and I am the only one left in my family, and you, Angu ......" Angu's master touched Angu's face, "You are this generation' The Son of Bohai, the Prophet's appointed attendant, was also a hostage taken back by the Iron Eagle Tribe, who broke his oath with the remnants of Bohai. β
Angu was completely stupid after hearing this, and then he understood why he was different from the other people in the Iron Eagle Tribe, why he was discriminated against, and why he became the apprentice of the witch doctor's father.
They couldn't understand what the two were talking about, but they knew in their hearts that their speculation should be correct, and Angu's master and Angu had a close connection with the remnants of the Bohai Sea in Kuhan City.
Angu's master looked at the skulls around him: "Angu, these are the skulls of the Son of Bohai who volunteered to sacrifice hundreds of years ago, not the mountain demon captured by the Iron Eagle Department. β
Angu knelt there, looking at the skulls from left to right, for the first time in many years, he looked at these things that he used to think were just trophies, and his heart was suddenly filled with fear, and he hurriedly asked, "Why did the Son of Bohai voluntarily sacrifice?" β
"The remnants of Bohai believe that if the prophet does not return for a day, his soul must exist in the Sealing Blade, so when the Son of Bohai reaches the age of 25, he must die in front of the Sealing Blade and continue to serve the prophet in the Sealing Blade with his soul." Master Angu picked up a skull on the far right and put it in Angu's hand, "But whether it is the Iron Eagle Division, the Wolf Head Division, or the Bohai Remnants, they are all wrong, they just impose their imagination on other people, I have studied it for decades, and I understand that the Prophet will never come back at all, maybe the Prophet does not exist at all, this is why, I deliberately let you go back then, let you go to the Four Seasons Mountain, and let you leave here forever, I don't want anyone to become a victim of the Sealing Sword." β
Angu sat there with his skull, thinking, recalling carefully, and he suddenly realized that when he had told the others about that memory, he had deliberately concealed the most important thing, that incident, that person, could it also be related to the current matter? What else is in the city of Khuhan? Could it be that all the secrets are hidden in that Sealing Blade?
No, it must not be, Angu asked himself, then raised his eyes to the master and asked, "Master, I want to know, why did the Iron Eagle Tribe, the Wolf Head Tribe, and the Bohai Remnants all swear to follow the Prophet?" Who exactly is the prophet? β
Angu's master said: "The prophet is the existence of everything, although he is not a god, but he has the power of a god, he can see through people's hearts, he can also heal all life and death, make people come back from the dead, and can turn iron into gold." β
When Angu relayed his life experience and everything he had learned about the Prophet from his master to the others, it was already early in the morning of the second day, and the whole night was spent in fear and confusion, and it was only in the early morning that after Xingshu opened his eyes, he couldn't wait to step forward and tell him everything.
After the three of them heard this, Mo Duqiao sneered: "If you still don't know your identity, and don't know that you are a son of Bohai who will go to the burial of a knife, I'm afraid you will never tell us this, right?" β
Angu did not deny it: "Yes, I don't want to die for a knife, I should say that if I hadn't left here and seen the outside world, I'm afraid I would have accepted fate, but now, I won't be at the mercy of fate!" β
The torture technique just looked at Angu and did not express an opinion.
Lian Jiuqi understood the meaning of the torture technique, and took the opportunity to say, "Angu, what do you want us to do?" β
Angu frowned: "Dao, Master and I can help you take it away, but you must find Kuhan City with me, I need your help." β
"It's weird." Xingshu looked at Angu and asked, "If you were someone else, you would know that you would die, and you would definitely run away, but you want to return to Kuhan City?" Isn't this looking for death? β
"I just want to figure out everything, and besides, I also want to know who my parents really are, aren't these reasons enough?" β
Mo Duqiao and Lian Jiuqi glanced at each other, but they didn't speak, and said in a torture technique: "Angu, I can't promise you so quickly, I have to get the Sealing Blade first, and I won't accept any of your conditions until I get the Sealing Blade and rescue my companions." β
Angu stood up and said, "Unless you accept my conditions, I won't tell you how to take away the Sealing Sword!" β
Torture also got up: "Okay, it's not us who died anyway, it's you, you have to be clear, whether the people of the Iron Eagle Department find a way to get rid of the poison, or if they fail, you will be a dead end sooner or later, besides, I still don't believe that you took such a big risk to come back here, just to find out your own background?" β
Angu hesitated for a while and said: "I have something unspeakable, I have a chance, I will tell you, I hope you can help me, I beg you." β
Lian Jiuqi motioned for the torture technique to sit down, and then said, "Angu, the three of us have something to discuss, can you avoid it?" β
Angu nodded and walked to the corner of the igloo, but Lian Jiuqi still looked at him: "Avoidance, that is, can you leave this room?" β
Angu reluctantly climbed into the tunnel, but he squatted under the entrance of the tunnel, pricked up his ears to listen, listened for a while without moving, and when he looked up, he found that Moduqiao was standing on the side of the tunnel and looked at him coldly, Angu was a little embarrassed, and immediately got into the tunnel, and then watched Moduqiao re-cover the iron plate on the tunnel.
When Mo Duqiao returned to Lian Jiuqi and Torture, he shook his head and sighed, "Son of Bohai? Things are far more complicated than we think. β
Lian Jiuqi took out the diary of the reed flute: "I roughly flipped through this diary just now, and I saw what the reed flute wrote at the beginning, how did she get this diary, guess where she got it?" β
Xingshu and Mo Duqiao shook their heads, Lian Jiuqi opened the diary, pointed to it and said: "Although my Russian is not very good, I can also understand that the place where the reed flute got this diary is in Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province, China, and it was bought from a person surnamed Tong, guess what the full name of this surnamed Tong is recorded in the diary of the reed flute?" β
Xingshu and Mo Duqiao continued to shake their heads, and Lian Jiuqi sneered: "It's called Tong Great Wall, of course, this is written by transliteration in the reed flute in the record. β
"Tong Great Wall? I know, the Great Wall of Copper Wu Zi'an! The torture technique immediately took the diary over, "Wu Zi'an, one of the nine sons, the Great Wall of Copper!? How so? β
Mo Duqiao leaned closer to the side of the torture technique and looked at it carefully: "If the record is true, I think Tang Qianrou must have been calculated by the boss behind the Cusco company, and now looking at it, the previous speculation is correct, except for Tang Sirong, Tang Qianrou, and Wan Qingquan, everyone may be the big boss behind the scenes." β
Xingshu looked at the diary and said: "According to the reed flute's recollections, Ah Le is the person who is the big boss behind the scenes, and the reed flute also participated in this operation because of the arrangement of the big boss behind the scenes, according to the records of the reed flute, she learned about this 'password diary' from a friend in the hands of someone in Xi'an, China, after she inquired, she found that it was in the hands of Wu Zi'an, so she went to Xi'an to buy it, and it didn't take too much effort, so she bought this diary at a price that she thought was reasonable, and then began to study." β
Lian Jiuqi then analyzed: "There is a blank time in this, that is, the owner of the diary that Mo Duqiao found in Chechnya back then, after St. Petersburg did not copy the full password diary, how could the diary be transferred to Wu Zi'an's hands?" What is certain is that Wu Zi'an must be from Cusco, otherwise, there is no reason for him to participate in this game laid by the boss behind the scenes. β
Mo Duqiao also said: "So whether Wu Zi'an is dead or not?" Maybe not dead, maybe still alive, but from the fact that Wu Zi'an didn't hide his identity at all to sell this diary, it can be seen that he has no scruples, so he shouldn't be the boss behind the scenes, how did Wu Zi'an die back then? β
Xingshu said: "As far as I know, it was a death from illness, it was cancer, it dragged on for a long time, he was different from Ma Guiyuan, Ma Guiyuan resisted Western medicine, although he accepted it, and did chemotherapy or something, in the end he still didn't carry it." β
Lian Jiuqi said: "After I came back, I found someone to investigate, he and Ma Guiyuan should indeed be dead, I can find all the relevant information, I also asked someone to inquire, it is true, and the time of Wu Zi'an's death was almost after the reed flute bought this diary." β
Mo Duqiao frowned: "Then there are two possibilities, maybe Wu Zi'an knows that he is about to die, so he doesn't care if his identity is exposed, and the second possibility is that Wu Zi'an may not be involved in the affairs of Cusco Company, but he has a good personal relationship with the big boss behind the scenes, so he can't refuse, Wu Zi'an has the best relationship with among the nine sons?" β
Lian Jiuqi recalled: "Wu Zi'an has a very cheerful personality, high emotional intelligence, does not offend people, and will not get too close to people, belongs to the kind of people who can help you, and he will definitely do his best, but he has his own principles, so I can't say who he has a better relationship with." β
Mo Duqiao shook his head: "Then this clue is broken, anyway, he can't be the boss behind the scenes." β
The torturer didn't speak, and continued to look at the diary with great difficulty, and Mo Duqiao, who was proficient in Russian, took the diary, flipped through the pages one by one, and told the two of them about the strange events in Khuhan City recorded by the original owner of the diary, that is, the Soviet pilot Gromov......
Why did Gromov fly a plane to the Altai Mountains? This matter has to start with a warlord surnamed Sheng in China - in 1928, the Daotai of the late Qing Dynasty in western China, and later known as the king of the west, Yang Zengxin, was assassinated, his death directly broke the political pattern of western China, and his successor Jin Shuren was difficult to convince the public, on April 12, 1922, a group of generals under Jin Shuren united with the Soviet army and launched a military coup, known as the "April 12" coup d'Γ©tat in the west.
The biggest beneficiary of this coup d'Γ©tat was a cadre under Jin Shuren at that time, that is, a soldier named Sheng Shicai, who was elected as the temporary governor of the west after the coup, and directly replaced Jin Shuren as the new generation of king of the west.
Sheng Shicai did not rely on the Nationalist Government at that time, after judging the situation, he took refuge in the Soviet Union, the first two of the six major policies he proposed were "anti-imperialist and pro-Soviet", and even received by Stalin many times, therefore, Sheng Shicai's army received a large amount of Soviet military aid, and Gromov was a member of the Soviet Air Force that assisted Sheng Shicai at that time.
Gromov recorded in his diary that the year of his accident was 1937, when a series of major changes occurred in China, when he also transported a batch of heavy weapons to Sheng Shicai's army station, and after returning, carrying two representatives sent to Moscow by Sheng Shicai, plus his own co-pilot and 5 Soviet soldiers, a group of 9 people took off and returned to Moscow.
The plane had to fly over the Altai Mountains, which were notoriously unstable in the region, and all pilots would be extremely careful when passing here, and Gromov was naturally the same, but what he didn't expect was that he encountered a turbulence over the Altai Mountains that he had never encountered before, which directly caused his plane to crash in the mountains.
Mo Duqiao looked at the diary and said: "Judging from Gromov's description, his plane should have encountered a snow storm, originally he had already discovered the snow storm and had taken measures to avoid it, but because the snow storm clouds were too fast, when he was circumnavigating the edge of the clouds, the plane was still struck by lightning and fell directly into the mountains......"
When the plane was struck by lightning, Mogrove immediately understood that the plane must be finished, because the plane was completely out of control, and sadly, because of the rapid drop in temperature, they couldn't even open the cabin door, and finally used guns to open the cabin door, but the soldier who tried to jump was struck by lightning and fell down with the people around him.
Even so, the co-pilot and the remaining Soviet soldiers grabbed their parachutes and jumped, and two of them were torn apart by the tornado in the snowstorm shortly after jumping out, turning them into pieces, and Gromov and the two Chinese dispatch officers who were still in the plane were dumbfounded.
"What should I do?" One of the lieutenant officers finally asked, and Gromov and the other were clutching onto the fixing cable, because at this time the plane had begun to rotate in the clouds due to the air current, but it was not descending, but it was spinning and rising.
"Can't jump!" "If we jump, we will definitely be like them......"
Before Gromov could finish his sentence, the plane was hit hard by something, which knocked the three of them to the ground, and when they got up, the thing that hit the plane was blown into the cabin by the wind - it was half of the body of a Soviet soldier.
The two lieutenant officers looked at the soldier's half-cut corpse that had been frozen into ice, completely agreed with Gromov's words, and then, according to Gromov's experience, blocked all the objects that could be found on the plane to reduce the impact and impact in front of the cockpit, and then the three of them fixed themselves in the cabin, waiting for the final judgment of fate.
The plane continued to rotate in the air current, kept rising, and suddenly fell, and the tense spirit of the three people was finally about to collapse, and suddenly the plane was thrown out directly by a force, and at the same time, the three of them clearly saw the fiery red sun outside the clouds on the horizon, but in an instant, the plane slammed down, and rushed directly into the valley below.
When the huge impact force came from the nose of the plane, Gromov's eyes were black and unconscious.
When Gromov woke up, I don't know how long had passed, he was awakened by the cold, and the cold wind was like a hand, slapping him in the face fiercely.
Gromov found himself crushed against a pile of softer furs and mink, gifts that had only been brought to Moscow by the prime of life, and which had saved his life, dislocating only one arm in the havoc.
But the two officers were not so lucky, one neck was directly broken, the other leg was broken, although there was still a breath, but it was already dying, although Gromov constantly comforted him that he would save him out, but he knew very well that in this case, it was good for him to get out of the cabin alive - the plane crashed directly into an icefall, how high the distance from the icefall to the bottom of the mountain, Gromov did not know, only knew that if he fell, he would definitely struggle in the air for at least ten seconds.
And it is almost impossible to climb to the top of the mountain, because the snow and fog clouds at the upper end block his vision, so that he can't see how far away from the top of the mountain is where he is, not to mention the extremely low temperature here, although there are thick clothes to keep warm, but in the absence of food to provide heat, the insulation alone can't last a day or two.
"Don't move here, I'll go out and have a look, and I'll be back later." Before leaving, Gromov made an improvised leg splint for the officer with half a life left, and made him lie there eating the bread that was so hard that he would bite his teeth out.
Gromov struggled to climb out of the broken nose, originally he planned to get out of the plane from there, and then try to climb the cliff, but when he climbed out of the already smashed nose, he found that there was a cave in the icefall, which is the main reason why most of the plane could be inserted into the icefall, but did not fall.
Gromov immediately climbed into the cave and found that the temperature inside the cave had reached at least about twenty degrees, and even more amazingly, he also found an unfrozen river.
Seeing that the river was not frozen, Gromov immediately ran over, lay down on the riverside and tested the temperature of the water with his hands, and also tried to drink a small sip, after making sure that it was not a hallucination, he immediately filled the kettle he carried with him and brought the water to the dying lieutenant ** officer.
When the ** official drank the water and heard that there was an unfrozen river in the cave halfway up the snow-capped mountain at an altitude of several thousand meters, he thought it was a miracle, and Gromov also guessed that if he walked down the river, he might find more amazing things.
So, Gromov tried his best to make a trailer with the remaining usable objects on the plane, and dragged the lieutenant officer into the cave where he didn't know what was waiting for them. 2k reading web
