Wang Yiyang saw that everyone didn't answer, and continued: "I understand everyone's curiosity. But you are all heavyweight experts, I am the team leader, and I am responsible for your safety, and I am responsible for the safety of all the comrades in the investigation team. Organizing another large-scale scientific expedition to the area around the Shuilian Cave of Researcher Li would have to take a great risk. There, the Earth's magnetic field is very strong, and it's easy to get lost, so what if all of us can't get in and out? And now that it is late autumn, the temperature at night drops below 0 degrees, which is a great test for everyone's body. Therefore, I hope that you will stop here, do your existing research report, and do not risk the state's scientific research funds just to satisfy your curiosity. ”

After hearing this, the anthropologist hurriedly said: "Since we are here, we hope to achieve more results and bring them back, and it is rare to organize such a comprehensive investigation, so it is better to leave no regrets." What's more, there are many doubts in the area of the Water Curtain Cave, although the environment is dangerous and inaccessible, but it may hide the secrets of ancient human activities on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. ”

Other experts in the room chimed in. Wang Yiyang looked around the conference room with expectant eyes, and he thought for a while: "In this way, go to half and leave half, and the specific personnel and each discipline will be agreed upon by themselves." Everyone prepared separately and set off tomorrow. ”

108 The Secret of the Water Curtain Cave

Li Guanghan slept restlessly last night, and always felt that something was missing. He subconsciously touched the "magic eyeball" on his neck, only to remember that the bead had been locked into the safe by Team Leader Wang along with the translucent mirror. He hoped to fall asleep as soon as possible and get the revelation of the "Kunlun Wise Man". However, it did not work out.

Chen Aili also couldn't sleep all night. At night on the plateau, there is an extreme lack of oxygen, and although I have returned to China, I don't have to worry about it anymore, but I have to face new contradictions and problems, which really doesn't stop. Now it seems that Team Leader Wang's attitude is not very supportive, if Li Guanghan makes a mistake later, it is purely alarmist and subjective, what should I do? Isn't it going to be discredited?

Chen Aili now cares far more about Li Guanghan than about herself, and this imperceptible change makes her uneasy.

Sanchi, a Tibetan driver, excitedly inspects the vehicle early in the morning. When he heard that he was going to go to the Shuilian Cave area again, he volunteered to have a car with Li Guanghan, and they led the way for the expedition team together.

Wang Yiyang strained his face and watched expressionlessly as everyone loaded the car with testing instruments and camping equipment, thinking that so many experts had not adopted his opinion as the team leader, he felt a little unhappy.

Lee smiled and patted Sanji on the shoulder and asked if he remembered the way. Sanji confidently remembered the part of the road he had off.

This time, the route was set to be the route taken by Lee Kwang Han and the others back to the big camp last time. The route is based on the map where the sunlight shines through the water curtain and the translucent mirror on the cave wall, and the reverse is all around. This allows you to avoid the forests and valleys filled with carbon dioxide and methane due to the melting of permafrost.

It's just that the whole convoy can only rely on Li Guanghan and Sanchi to lead the way, and even the locals don't know that there is such a road. Chen Aili was already dizzy when she was sitting in the back row, and she couldn't tell the difference between southeast and northwest.

Anthropologist: "Lao Li, if you take all of us into the ditch, we will all have to drink the northwest wind." ”

Under the leadership of Team Leader Wang, half of the scientific research personnel of the comprehensive investigation team joined the investigation into the hinterland of the uninhabited area.

After the convoy got off the road, it traveled on a rut-free, gravel-strewn wasteland. There are many broken beams here, and there are many criss-crossing gravel ditches. In late autumn, strong winds begin to blow here after noon, and the raging wind blows the stones on the wasteland and smashes the car body "clang".

Sanchi drove the off-road vehicle with a heartfelt heart, fearing that the sharp stones would puncture the tires.

Gradually, the sound of the wind began to be mixed with the roar of the fountain, the humming of the fountain. In the distance, there are many steaming fountain pools, occasionally spewing out columns of soda up to 20 meters high. In the middle of the mouth of the spring, a column of white soda erupts, and the surrounding area is a gradient from dark blue to light blue, and then the outer circle is milky white foam. The outermost circle of moist soil stained with brownish-yellow and reddish-brown brought warmth to the windswept wasteland.

"The geothermal resources here are so abundant, we haven't found them before, we haven't come in vain, and there are still harvests." Team Leader Wang finally smiled a little.

Chen Aili dropped a little bit for Li Guanghan's hanging heart.

Everyone got out of the car to do surveys and write records. People stood by the fountain in thick raincoats, covered in hot sweat, and when they walked to the side, they were blown by a gust of wind, and their underwear immediately froze into ice.

After the fountain area, the mountains are getting closer and closer, and the water curtain cave is in that mountain. Lee Kwang-han commanded Sanji from memory to find the entrance, and it was from here that they rushed out of the mountains and saw a smooth road in front of them.

The rocks in this area are almost the same color, and they are all in the shape of vertical stripes, which is easy to create illusions. From a distance, it looks like a straight line, a plane, a whole, and up close, you can see that it originally belonged to different peaks. If it weren't for Li Guanghan's memory of where the exit of each valley was, everyone would have taken many unjust roads, and they would soon get lost.

As soon as the convoy entered the mountains, the compass failed, the pointer kept shaking wildly, and the effect of the satellite phone was greatly reduced, and it was almost impossible to contact the big camp.

The color began to darken, and the team relied on Li Guanghan's memories to walk on the road to find the Water Curtain Cave. Due to the delay in the survey of the hot fountain area, Lee Kwang-han had to accurately take everyone to the area of the Water Curtain Cave before dark.

Team Leader Wang's face was cloudy, and he looked at the mountains outside the car window and said nothing.

Finally, a stream appeared in front of the buggy. Although there is a lot of water compared to the last time I saw it, the last time it was during the rainy season, and now it is late autumn, which is normal.

"Yes, it's this stream, and if you go upstream along the valley, you can see the Water Curtain Cave." Lee Kwang Han is sure to arrive.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a waterfall to appear in front of the off-road vehicle, and the crystal clear snow-capped mountain meltwater hung down and flowed into the stream.

"Huh? There's a lot of water, so when the sun comes out, can you still see the same map through it as last time? Li Guanghan recalled the last time the sound of the water was "rattling", the sunlight shining into the cave from the outside, and the spectacle formed by the combined action of light and shadow, water shadow, and translucent mirror. However, can Ming still be the same?
