"That was more than 20 years ago, when I had just graduated from college, it was when I was young and vigorous, plus my family had money, I didn't have to worry about food and clothing, and I didn't want to start working too early and live that kind of conformist life, but I wanted to have some adventures and explore some secrets, and I did it, and in those years I went on expeditions all over the world, taking photos and writing articles, because I was handsome at that time, and the photos I took were also good-looking, and the articles I wrote were also a bit literary. So it got a little bit of a hit, and then I joined a private adventure club.

The owner of this club is a mysterious rich man, he will hold regular adventures, most of the explorers in the club are rich people, but it is not so much an adventure as it is to have fun, and the places that are famous but have no secrets to speak of, the scenery is good, but there is no sense of adventure at all.

I didn't want to stay in it for a while, but at this time, the mysterious rich man launched a new expedition, deep in the jungles of South America, there is a place called the Crypt of Acanterla, which is sparsely populated and contains many secrets, and the mysterious rich man invited us to explore the cave together, according to what he wrote in the invitation, in this crypt it is said that there is a mysterious ruin, which is very worth exploring, but because the area is too treacherous, Therefore, everyone who signs up must sign a life and death certificate.

However, his invitation discouraged most people, after all, most of the people in that club were amateurs, and it was one thing to travel and take pictures in the scenic mountains and valleys, but it was another thing to go to the treacherous South American jungles and find mysterious ancient ruins.

However, there are still some people who are willing to accept the challenge, and finally three people accepted the invitation, a female explorer named Luisa, and an American real estate tycoon, because I can't remember his name after too long, here for the sake of convenience, let's call him Cuong, and finally of course it was me, at that time I was young and vigorous, and I loved adventure, for the legendary mysterious ancient ruins, it was absolutely impossible to miss, so I gladly accepted the invitation.

One sunny morning, the three of us arrived at the starting point and waited for the arrival of the mysterious rich man......"

Shang Chongyun's voice gradually became muffled, and there was a look of memory in his eyes.

More than 20 years ago -

Shang Chongyun pushed open the door of the club's bus, stepped up, in the huge travel bus, there were only him and three other people, one of them was the driver, he knew the two people sitting in the back seat of the car, one was called Luisa, a beautiful explorer, it is said that she is the heir of a consortium family, however, Shang Chongyun didn't believe it, because Luisa usually behaves very professionally, and in the whole club, he thinks that he is one of the few people who are probably as professional as him, And there is no such extravagant behavior style of the children of the rich.

The other one he couldn't name, and he looked a little scared, and didn't seem to come to expeditions very often.

"Hey, Luisa, Cuong, you two came early." Shang Chongyun said as he put away his travel backpack and then found a place to sit down.

The doors closed, the driver checked the number of people, and then drove off.

"Wait a minute, isn't there another person?" Shang Chongyun said, glancing at Luisa and Ah Qiang with an inquiring gaze, and he lowered his voice, "Didn't you say that 'that person' is also coming?" In fact, he had always wondered who the creator of this mysterious club was.

"He's said to be at the airport to meet us." Luisa explained, checking her expedition gear.

Shang Chongyun nodded, and half an hour later, the car came to the airport, and to his surprise, it was still a private airport, a small passenger plane was parked on the runway of the airport, and a spirited white old man was sitting at a table, looking at a book seriously, it was a notebook with a yellowed cover, he frowned, as if thinking about some profound question.

He was dressed in the equipment of an explorer, dressed as a professional.

Seeing the three people who got out of the car, the old man stood up and nodded at the three of them, "I'm glad to see that among you people, there is still a spirit of adventure, so the three of you accepted the invitation, very good, although the number is a little smaller, but Churchill once said that the key to winning a war is not the number of troops, but the quality of the army."

Before I set out, I must make it clear that this expedition is very dangerous, and we may never return, but if it succeeds, the secrets we can uncover will change the history of mankind forever, and I hope you will understand this, and in order to complete this mission, once we embark on this journey, there is no turning back, so please make sure that you are ready to do so. ”

The old man's words not only did not dispel Shang Chongyun's thoughts, but made him even more excited, the old man's gaze swept over the three of them, and seeing that no one flinched, he nodded, "Very good, then let's get on the plane, oh yes, my name is Wood, you can call me Dr. Wood." ”

The four got on the plane, and then the plane took off.

This plane is obviously Dr. Wood's private jet, and it is not difficult to see that this Dr. Wood is very rich, even if he is rich, not everyone can afford to raise a private jet.

When the four of them were on the plane, Dr. Wood also made some introductions to the destination of this expedition, although what Dr. Wood said was very difficult, but Shang Chongyun felt that since the white-haired old man in front of him dared to participate, what was he afraid of, and he didn't know where the danger was.

The rest of the journey was very long, and they first flew to a small town in the jungle of South America, where Dr. Wood seemed to be very well prepared, and a helicopter and equipment were already waiting.

The group rested in the town for the night, and the next day flew in a helicopter towards their destination where the Crypt of Akantera was located.

In his ears is the sound of the helicopter's buzzing propeller roar, through the helicopter's window, you can see the vast jungle below, boundless, very dense, between the ups and downs of the mountains, like a prone green beast, looking at the exotic scenery in front of him, Shang Chongyun is nervous and excited, but he has some doubts about the purpose of this adventure, this Mr. Wood seems to be a man with great powers, his purpose seems to be very clear, not a casual exploration, so why didn't he go to some professional subordinates to help, but pull a few of them?

As a wealthy person, it shouldn't be difficult to do this.

He didn't ask this question, but he was instinctively a little wary, but after looking at Dr. Wood's gray-haired face, he didn't take it to heart, the other party was just an old man, and there was no one else around him, so what was there to be defense?
