Chapter 68: Perfect
However, Sander was worried that the Emperor Falcon had only eaten those two Kestrels, and most of the time they had been drugged unconscious, although most of them were still in a coma, but it had been two days, and the Emperor Falcon was also a little hungry, worried that he would die of hunger and find a lot of trouble when the time came.
When little Zach heard Sander's words, he smoked and stunned him.
And I was outside to pick them up one by one, and finally, Mia came up, and I put the rope away and climbed in.
This cave is not very high, people have to crawl in it on their knees, everyone did not expect to encounter the situation of climbing, there is not much preparation, especially in this desert, everyone is thinly dressed, although they know that the temperature may be lower when entering the ground, but there is not sufficient preparation, so it is very hard to climb in this half-waist cave.
There were no stones on the ground of the cave, and the walls on both sides were a little smooth, which was enough to endure the pain, but fortunately, the length of this tunnel was not very long, only more than 20 meters, so everyone quickly ended this tortured crawling path.
When I crawled out of the stone cave, Professor Liang suddenly said, "This stone cave should be an escape passage dug by ancient people when they built the mausoleum. You see where we are, it's supposed to be the back rooms of the tomb! ”
I stood at the back and saw that next to this stone cave, there were a few boxy stones, and there were some traces of polishing on them, so I knew that Professor Liang was right, these were some traces left by digging the escape passage, and sure enough, along this passage, they kept climbing towards the front, less than 100 meters, they actually came to the end of this escape passage, there seemed to be a stone blocking the front of the passage, and Sander and Little Zach were at the front, pushing the stone that blocked the way forward, and it was not as difficult to push as imagined, After all, this is an escape route, so another person went up behind him and retreated the stone that was blocking the front.
Sander didn't immediately climb into the hole, but sniffed the air, seemed to think that there was no problem, took a flashlight, shone it, and turned back to tell them that this was indeed an ancient tomb, and the back space in this cave was not small, and it was estimated that it was the back room of the ancient tomb. Sander took the flashlight and climbed in first, and then, it was Xiao Zach, Professor Liang, Li Tong, Mia and I entered the back room of the ancient tomb one after another, with the help of the light of the flashlight, I saw that in the back room, there were some bottles and jars, most of them were broken, Professor Liang took a good mouthful, so he squatted down and carefully studied these broken porcelain jars, and he was angry and annoyed, saying who had entered this ancient tomb and ruined these porcelain jars, these are all historical relics of great archaeological value.
I also saw on the side that although there were some porcelain jars in this backroom, and some weapons and other shelves, it was obvious that some people had patronized them, and there were quite a few of them, and they saw some footprints in it, and it seemed that these porcelain jars had been looted, and some were broken, of course, I don't know how many porcelain jars were smoothed out by previous tomb robbers. However, I'm not interested in any of that, I'm concerned about the toxins in my body and the baby in Mia's womb, which is his top priority.
Little Zach was carrying the cage of the Imperial Falcon, and he was embarrassed to see Professor Liang regretting the study of these historical relics, and he was embarrassed to urge, and Sander didn't seem to want to blow Professor Liang, after all, Professor Liang has a deep study of the culture of the Western Regions, and it is very helpful for him to find the mysterious toxin, however, Sander was still a little patient, but the Emperor Falcon suddenly screamed very restlessly, which made Sander's face slightly happy, but I looked very uncomfortable, although I was not sure what Sander's intention was to care so much about this expedition, but it's certainly not as pure as Professor Liang, and the TMB Group itself is not clean, Sander seems to be good, but in fact he is feminine and vicious, and he can't be fooled by his appearance. Sure enough, I saw Sander crouching next to Professor Liang with a slight frown, and whispered a few words to him. Professor Liang still seemed to have some respect for Sander, so he nodded slightly, stood up, and Sand carried the cage of the Imperial Falcon himself, walked out of the back room, and sure enough, he came to the main burial chamber of this ancient tomb.
The space of the main tomb is very large, but in the center of the main tomb, we did see a sarcophagus, but unfortunately, the lid of the sarcophagus has been pried open and pushed down to the side, however, we passed, under the light, found that the sarcophagus and the coffin lid were covered with a lot of dust, as if this ancient tomb had been stolen for many years, I suddenly had a strange feeling, the person who entered the tomb robber in this tomb would not be the group of tomb robbers that my father chased them sixteen years ago, the identity of the group of tomb robbers is not clear, But I have something to do with the TMB Group, and Batur was also rescued by the people of the TMB Group, which has to be suspected, maybe it may be that the TMB members did not complete the task back then, and now it has been restarted by the group's top management, which has contributed to this expedition. However, now it seems that we have an advantage in numbers, but unfortunately, in addition to my combat strength, we also have Professor Liang's oil bottle on our side, and Mia's pregnancy is my weakness, so I don't dare to act rashly at all.
We came to the side of the sarcophagus, Sander immediately took a flashlight, and shone towards the inside of the sarcophagus, there was a large wooden coffin in the sarcophagus, the lid of the wooden coffin was also lifted, and there was a corpse lying inside, but the clothes on it were rotten, and some things on the bones seemed to have been taken away, but Sander was not interested in this corpse, so he also put the cage of the imperial falcon in the wooden coffin, and sure enough, the cry of the imperial falcon was even more urgent, and Sander's face was also happy, I knew that what Sander was looking for was probably in this wooden coffin, I was worried about Professor Liang Mia and others, so I stared at Sander's every move without blinking, but unfortunately, Little Zack seemed to be more like himself, his physical strength was extraordinary, so he had to stare at the side, and he couldn't ask, and Sander would definitely not tell the truth, so he had to take one step at a time, Professor Liang was attracted by the exotic murals on the sarcophagus, outside the sarcophagus, secretly studied, and I looked at the inside of the wooden coffin, and looked at it for a few minutes, I didn't see what Sander found, however, he noticed that something seemed to be wrong in the wooden coffin, so he saw Sander suddenly take out a dagger and hand the cage to little Zack, and then, with the dagger, lay on the side of the wooden coffin, and towards the inside, lifted the direction of the foot of the wooden coffin to pave the mat, which seemed to be a leather blanket or something, but it was all thousands of years, so the dagger only picked it up, and it shattered, almost turning into dust.
Sander had no choice but to use a dagger to pick the fur to the side, and I saw the wooden coffin under the fur, which seemed to have some indentations, and then looked at the bones close at hand, and suddenly found that the bones were not very high, and the soles of the feet were still more than half a meter away from the wooden coffin, as if the sarcophagus and the wooden coffin were both extended coffins, and at the place at the feet, it was obvious that when the deceased was buried, something was placed, just against the soles of the deceased's feet. Unfortunately, the thing against the soles of the feet looked like it should have been removed by tomb robbers, and on both sides of the wooden coffin, there were some traces of dust covering.
Sander carefully picked up these crushing marks with a dagger, and finally, in the gap in the corner of this wooden coffin, scraped out some white powder, very little, but in front of the imperial falcon, it screamed wildly, which suddenly made Sand's face show an excited look, I can't see it well, could it be that this white powder is the mysterious toxin, and it was really found by this Sander?
However, I looked, Sander just picked out some toxin powder from the gap in this coffin, and put it in a small bottle, looking a little unwilling, after the toxin powder was put into the bottle, the emperor falcon really slowly quieted down.
But Sander was really unwilling, in this coffin, this boxy thing was obviously placed, but it was stolen, it is very likely that it was a former member of the group, however, from the TMB group management, although some of those people escaped from the death zone, only some of them, and some people were killed, but the things were not taken away by the police, it should be hidden somewhere in this desert? Sander and little Zack carried the imperial falcon, took a flashlight, and looked at the left and right ear chambers on both sides of the ancient tomb, I didn't worry about them, so I didn't accompany Professor Liang here to study the sarcophagus murals, but followed them around the ancient tomb.
Unexpectedly, in the left ear room, they found that the ancient tomb was cracked out of a crack, and the imperial falcon actually reacted at the place of the crack, and Sander didn't care about the team spirit, so he and little Zach squeezed into this crack one after another, I hurriedly ran over and shouted, what are you doing here?
Sander said with a smile, although their purpose this time is the mystery of the disappeared Western Regions, but his purpose is different from Professor Liang, therefore, don't say goodbye, they will continue to explore, I didn't expect Mia to follow behind, and also walked into this crack, I had to rush to the main tomb and hurriedly said a few words to Professor Liang, Xiaotong also wanted to follow, but unfortunately, Professor Liang needs someone to take care of him, so only I followed into this crack.
Fortunately, the crack is not small, I took a flashlight, followed inside, and did not lose the three people in front of me, but inside this crack, it was difficult to move, I was very worried about Mia's body, but unfortunately, I spoke, and he didn't pay much attention to me, so I had to speed up the pace and follow them closely, and in the end, they actually walked out of the crack, however, the scene outside the crack scared us all.
There is a huge cavity here, it doesn't seem to be a heavenly cave, and the big hole is filled with some strange smells, and Sander said next to him: "This Lop Nur area was once used by the military for nuclear testing bases, and nuclear bombs were detonated. The shape of the rock wall here is by no means a natural cave, and it is likely that it is a large cave after a nuclear explosion. ”
I nodded secretly, this is indeed very likely to be the remnants of the nuclear explosion back then, and the cracks in the ancient tomb are also likely to be caused by nuclear explosions, but we are not concerned about nuclear explosions or anything, but about the fate of the mysterious toxin.
In this big cave of nuclear explosion, we searched for more than two hours, with the help of the imperial falcon, only in the very high place of the rock wall, found a rock with white powder left after being scraped, the imperial falcon reacted, and finally, we came to the nuclear explosion hole under the dozens of meters of the hole, really could not find a place to go up, however, we have ropes, hooks, etc., just to find the rock wall that is easy to climb, shoot the hook, hook on the rock wall, and then let people climb up, and little Zach acted as a pioneer, sure enough, Soon, with his agility, he climbed up to the super hole, fixed the rope, and pulled us up one by one, but fortunately, at the last moment, Sander didn't cut the rope ruthlessly, otherwise, I would have died in war.
On this nuclear bomb hole, we are in a desert again, but looking at the yellow sand around us, it seems that it is not as thick as imagined, and GPS and other GPS are not easy to use here, so it is not clear how far away from the previous base. The long yellow sand in front of him, Sander also saw a little difficult, however, this is the site of the nuclear explosion, there must be a former experimental site around, therefore, regardless of the hard work, we began to look for it again, sure enough, in the end, we found the abandoned brick house, half of which is hidden in the yellow sand, in the far distance of more than ten miles, faintly can still see some mushroom clouds, it is likely to be some Yadan landforms.
We found a brick house, got some compressed biscuits, drank some water, rested for more than half an hour, and everyone started to act again, Sander seemed to be a little irritable, the imperial falcon didn't have any reaction here, and depending on the situation, the imperial falcon seemed to be locked in a cage, and his nature was imprisoned, so he was a little dying, we were all more worried, in fact, I also cared a little about the life and death of the imperial falcon, but unfortunately, thinking of his own life and the child in Mia's belly, there were still those naïve bird thoughts.
Sander felt that the former tomb robbers had escaped from the nuclear explosion hole and were chased and killed by the police in the Yadan landscape, but the police did not get the mysterious object, so it must be hidden somewhere?
We searched for it in the vicinity again, and sure enough, we saw the Yadan landform area in the distance, Sander took out a small drone, controlled it and flew into the sky, through the camera, saw the Yadan landform, just covered in this area, according to the other team of people and horses were killed in the Yadan landform that year, the police did not get anything at that time, it may be that the tomb robbers have not died yet, and they have taken the things away, and they may be hiding somewhere, but unfortunately, this place is too big, and Sander can't determine where the things are? As a result, by the afternoon of the next day, we had walked out of this Yadan landform, and were looking for it along the edge of these wind-eroded stone pillars, but we didn't expect that the emperor falcon who was almost dying in the end actually reacted, and we finally dug out a boxy big wooden box under a stone pillar at the edge of the Yadan landform, which was covered with mural paint, and some scratches, wrapped in a tarpaulin, buried under the yellow sand, and it could be seen at a glance that this big wooden box was a national treasure.
As a result, Sander was ruthless, who cared if this was a national treasure, took the dagger, and pried open the big wooden box, and when we opened it, we were all surprised that there was a baby corpse like a white jade plaster lying in it, which turned out to be a baby coffin.
However, this plaster baby didn't know what had happened, it seemed to be white mold with a lot of white lime-like things, and this small colored coffin was full of these lime-like substances, and the reaction of the imperial falcon was huge, and blood and green guts flowed from the corners of the sharp mouth, and it was scared to death, I knew that there must be something wrong with this plaster baby, and it gave birth to these strange lime-like toxins, although it can make people infinitely powerful, but at the same time, it is also a fatal thing.
But when Sander saw this, he laughed wildly, I knew that he wanted these things, I am afraid that it was not to study the antidote, but to build a strong army, however, Sander was not happy, and suddenly a group of policemen rushed out from around, Sander was caught off guard, seeing such a result, he was so angry that he gave an order to Little Zack, as a result, Little Zack just rushed out, although it was fast, but he did not have superhuman ability, and was instantly beaten into a sieve, and Sander, me and Mia were all arrested on the spot, but, In the end, after some investigation, Mia and I were released, but Sander and other TMB group personnel who entered the country were arrested one after another, and sentenced to prison for several crimes such as theft of national cultural relics, homicide, and killing precious animals.
And the mysterious toxin in my body, with the help of the Beijing Institute of Mystery and others, was finally solved, and Mia gave birth to my child, although she also carried the toxin, but was told by the staff of the research institute that although the child was also infected with the strange poison, but the body has produced antibodies, and the physique has also changed greatly, and Mia and I finally broke the contradiction between the nations, got married, took a son, and lived happily......
