Chapter 140: Pisces Jade Pendant
The digging pit is getting bigger and bigger, and after half a day's work, half an acre of land has been dug up, and the guards have erected the scaffolding prepared in advance, so as not to bury the excavation pit when it snows, and the effort is in vain.
After the archaeological team entered the working state, they completely forgot where they were, and the two old men dug up something of interest, and even took off their cold-proof gloves and went to dig up the things in the soil with their bare hands, and they didn't pay attention to the cold and red hands.
It was quiet, with the occasional bird passing by, and after noon the sky was bluer than the big cities before the great change. Chu Xiang didn't feel anything abnormal, seeing that there was no situation, everyone in the bored escort team was a little relaxed, and they farted and chatted with each other, but they weren't too puzzled.
Yang Zhigang was digging and studying with Tao Gongchi and others, and Chu Xiang walked around and came to the firepower point where the high school was built.
"Lao Gao, what do you think of this expedition?" Chu Xiang looked at the busy expedition team in front of him and said.
"I'm only responsible for the smooth running of the expedition, and I don't know anything else." Gao Jian obviously understood the reason why Chu Xiang asked.
"So is there anyone else who wants to come besides us?" Chu Xiang continued to ask, pacing forward.
"Look at Dean Tao's results." Gao Jiandao kept up with Chu Xiang, obviously not wanting the next conversation to be heard by those soldiers.
"This area next to it used to be a lake, but I heard that Pengamu disappeared in the saline-alkali field, is it near here?" Chu Xiang asked.
"There are a lot of saline-alkali land in Lop Nur, and there were rivers and lakes here in the past, I can't be sure, maybe Dean Tao can give you the answer."
"I heard that the Pisces jade pendant was unearthed in an ancient city, and there shouldn't be many ancient cities in Lop Nur, is there only one?"
"You've got more questions than I can know."
"At this time, at this place, if you say that there is no inside story, you don't believe it, right?"
Gao Jian nodded.
"I don't want to do anything, I can only say that I came here by chance, my purpose is very simple, let them go back safely."
"You're nice to them." High School Building.
"I also want your people to get out of the way."
Chu Xiang's words in this sentence were very clever, and he laid a trap that was not big or small.
"This is not the Longtan Tiger's Den." Gao Jian laughed and did not step into the trap.
"Let me tell you one thing, when our group came, many of our identities were fictitious, and the organizers didn't care at all."
Gao Jian's face changed slightly, and he understood the meaning of Chu Xiang's words.
Why don't you care?
Who cares about cannon fodder.
"Dean Tao, their role cannot be ignored." High School Building.
"Maybe you're overestimating their role." Chu Xiangdao, this is a heart-wrenching sentence.
"You don't even want to waste supplies, what do you think?" Chu Xiang said again.
Gao Jian's face became gloomy, and when he applied for supplies for the expedition team, the quartermaster of the dog day pushed back and forth, if he hadn't pulled out his gun and wanted to kill the man, he wouldn't have been able to get these supplies.
Thinking of this, Gao Gaojian's face became even more ugly, Tao Gongchi and others are cannon fodder, how much more important is his high school construction than Tao Gongchi.
"In my speculation, this operation is far more than the scale we see, we are just vanguard cannon fodder, what kind of development will happen next, I believe you can imagine, I won't say anything superfluous, I hope we work together happily." Chu Xiang said and walked towards the ancient city.
Gao Jian stood in the snow, did not move for a long time, and after a long time, he returned to the mountain bag.
"Li Er, follow me." When passing by He Nanfeng, Chu Xiang shouted.
He Nanfeng, who changed his name to Li Er, followed Chu Xiang.
Chu Xiang circled around the ancient city.
"What do you think of this ancient city?" Chu Xiang asked.
After seeing Chu Xiang's methods, He Nanfeng was a little afraid after all, afraid that Chu Xiang would be suspicious, and immediately replied: "This is a part of the ancient city of Lop Nur Nan, which has a high historical status and is of great research value. ”
"If you don't fight, you can't have a long memory, right?" Chu Xiangdao.
"No, boss, I'm telling the truth." He Nanfeng hurriedly explained.
"Oh! Do you mean we're just hiding our eyes and ears and luring snakes out of their holes? Chu Xiang instantly understood what He Nanfeng meant.
"The boss sees everything." He Nanfeng bowed his head and said.
"Where is your goal?" Chu Xiang asked directly.
"The Gate of Lop Nur." He Nanfeng said it without hesitation.
Chu Xiang took out the map and opened it, and asked, "Where is the Gate of Lop Nur?" ”
He Nanfeng clicked on a point on the map, which was not far from where everyone was, but only a dozen kilometers.
"The Pisces jade pendant was unearthed here?"
"Boss, you're wrong, the Pisces Jade Pendant is not a Jade Pendant, but a code name."
"What do you mean?"
"The Pisces Jade Pendant is the code name of an operation, Operation Pisces Jade Pendant, and the government has obtained an instrument that can be mirrored at the Gate of Lop Nur." He Nanfeng didn't even have any intention of concealing it.
"I've already got it, why are you still here?" Chu Xiang was puzzled.
"I've heard that the instrument can only be used at the Gate of Lop Nur." Ho Nan Feng Dao.
"What does this have to do with you?" Chu Xiang asked quietly.
"Boss, do you think that people like me don't come to make a lot of fun about such things?" He Nanfeng Dao obviously has something to hide.
Chu Xiang didn't pursue it anymore, so much information was enough for him to make a judgment, and if he continued to ask He Nanfeng, even if he said it, he would throw out misleading information, so he didn't ask anymore.
"Did you find anyone special in the convoy?" Chu Xiang changed the subject.
"Nope." He Nanfeng shook his head.
"Alright, you can go back." Chu Xiangdao.
He Nanfeng walked away.
Chu Xiang frowned, this He Nanfeng is not simple, half a day, maybe shorter, he took a bronze sword with such a good condition, and now he intends to guide Chu to the gate of Lop Nur, such a plan is obviously not something he can control, there must be someone behind He Nanfeng.
The Gate of Lop Nur, what kind of place is this, is it the place where Yang Zhigang often conducts nuclear tests, what is the relationship between all this, is there really an instrument that can transcend time and space for mirror replication! Could it be that as circulated on the Internet, the mirror instrument infinitely replicated a large number of zombies, so the government conducted a nuclear test in Lop Nur to destroy those monsters.
Ice and snow covered the entire ancient city, Chu Xiang turned around, and did not find anything special, when he returned to the excavation pit, he couldn't stand the cold for a long time, Tao Gongchi and other archaeologists had already gone back to the tent, and everyone in the escort team had withdrawn.
Chu Xiang glanced at the things around him, and when he returned to the camp, a group of people was cooking dinner, two teams of escorts and a team of soldiers were on guard all around, and the others were in warm tents.
On a safe and uneventful day, everyone in the escort team was a little bored, and several members of the archaeological team were concentrating on cleaning up the treasures dug up in the tent, and they were busy.
Looking at the clear sky, Chu Xiang thought for a moment and turned on the walkie-talkie: "The first, second, and third teams will gather, and the fourth team will prepare dinner to assist the experts." ”
Soon, three teams of eighteen people gathered in front of Chu Xiang.
Stand upright, look to the right, look forward, take a break.
After the whole team was finished, Chu Xiang said, "Do you know what kind of place this is?" Lop Nur, do you think Lop Nur is very fun, there are no birds all day long, it is simply a vacation? ”
The crowd burst into laughter.
"Unfortunately, you are mistaken, this is not heaven, but hell." Chu Xiang's tone changed and he continued: "In order for you to live a little longer when hell comes, from today onwards, you will have to train for two hours a day, and if you don't want to participate, you can go cook now." ”
The crowd hesitated, and someone asked, "Captain, what danger will there be?" ”
"The danger of the dead." Chu Xiang said lightly.
Everyone knows that Chu Xiang's strength is unpredictable, and when others don't feel it at all, they have already discovered the snooper, the gap is not ordinarily large, and the style of action is steady and sophisticated, and it will not be untargeted.
"Captain, Zhao Bing reports." Zhao Bing, the captain of the second team, stepped forward.
"Qian Laosi reports." The captains of the three teams followed.
