Chapter 42: The Truth
Huang Rong asked us to sit on the big stone, and as soon as we sat on it, we felt something strange, this stone turned out to be warm. I touched it with my hand, and this one piece had a temperature, and the other stones and the ground next to it had no temperature. The stone was weird, but I didn't pay attention to it.
I just can't wait to know what happened to Lu Dao in the past 3 years here. The desire for knowledge has sprung up in my heart, and this is her, and I would have asked if it were someone else. However, now the little wolf seems to be much calmer, and seems to have lost the sense of urgency just now.
Huang Rong saw that we all sat down and told us about the incident three years ago.
It all started when a man came to her and a few colleagues with a lot of sheets of paper full of symbols.
She was working at the Institute of Paleographic Decipherment, and the man who came with the symbols hoped they could help decipher them. Originally, they didn't want to help with this, and the work of the institute was already so busy that they didn't have time to study these symbols anymore.
However, an important leader stepped in and stopped their work and left them to concentrate on deciphering it. Since a leader spoke, they began to study these symbols to a certain extent, and at first they were very reluctant to study this, after all, this is not their own job, even if there is any discovery, the superiors can not give any honor and commendation.
However, with the in-depth study of symbols, they found that these symbols are not ordinary memory symbols, but a chain of information transmission. However, because the symbols brought by the people with symbols are not comprehensive, the chain of this information cannot be connected at all.
Research is like this, and the more you study, the more you will want to know the answer. They have gone from reluctance at first to inextricable. Even more than the person who sent the symbol, they wanted to know what the answer was.
They began to try to inquire about the origin of these symbols, and wanted to go to the place where they were found to study for themselves. After various lobbying and many reasons, they finally agreed to let them go to the field for research.
At first, I didn't know that the symbol of the road came from the ancient tomb, but I knew that the person with the symbol of the road would send it to them, and there would be people to receive them there. This time, there were three people, two women and one man, she was the team leader, and the only man was Liang Chao.
They were sent to a large mountain in the Changbai Mountains of Tonghua, Jilin, and the person with the symbol arranged for four more people to assist them. Of the four men, three were men and one woman, and one of them was a little wolf. There were many bomb shelters in that mountain, and before liberation it was an arsenal.
In one of the bomb shelters, a corridor was discovered, and the walls of the corridor were painted with such symbols. But they didn't know if the tomb had been excavated, so they concentrated on studying the symbols on the walls. After more than a month of research, more than 3,000 symbols in the corridor were finally sorted into two pieces of information.
The two messages represent two landmarks, one of which is our current tomb.
Originally, I thought that if I sorted out two landmarks, I would be able to complete the success. But after they gave the landmark, those people found many of the same symbols in the new landmark. The meaning of the leader is that they need to continue to follow up, and hope that the 3 of them can teach the 4 people who will join later, that is, the little wolf.
The new landmark, that is, this ancient tomb, they studied it for 3 months, and also taught the little wolf and them. And in the past 3 months, she has a certain relationship with the little wolf. She taught the little wolf how to recognize symbols, the little wolf taught her how to crack the tomb mechanism, and she always believed that the little wolf's gang were archaeologists.
But during the three-month study, they were not able to decipher the symbols. The problem is that no matter how they combine this time, they can't form a chain of information.
In the past three months, I have to repeatedly enter and exit the corridor every day, study the symbols in the corridor, and have already become familiar with everything in the corridor. Until one day, Huang Rong discovered a problem, she found that the symbols on the walls of the corridor had been tampered with, and many of the symbols had traces of alteration.
At first, she didn't say it, because she suspected that it was someone close to her who had changed the symbol. Only those who understand this symbol can change it.
Until one night, Liang Chao woke everyone up, saying that someone had changed the symbols under the corridor. She looked at all the people, except for the little wolf, and began to feel apprehensive in her heart, secretly hoping that it was not the little wolf. Everyone walked towards the Yongdao together, and sure enough, they were just in time for the little wolf to come out of the Yongdao entrance.
Liang Chao began to take the lead in accusing the little wolf, saying that he must have been bribed by tomb robbers to prevent everyone from discovering the true purpose of the symbol. With Liang Chao taking the lead, everyone also began to accuse the little wolf of his behavior, except for two people who disagreed with this statement. One was a woman named Irene, who was also arranged by a person with a symbol. The other is Huang Rong, and both of them think that the little wolf will not do such a thing.
But the facts are there, everyone saw that the little wolf came out of the corridor, he was not good at communicating with people, he didn't explain at all, and he looked like he was not afraid of shadows. In the opposition of everyone, Huang Rong's position was also a little shaken, except for the little wolf, a group meeting was held, and it was decided that the little wolf could not be left in the group.
The next day, as the team leader, she kicked the wolf cub out of the group, and Irene was the only one at the time, speaking for the wolf cub.
As I listened, I pondered the name she had just mentioned, Irene. It's a name I'm familiar with, and it's circling around my head, but I can't remember who it is.
I stared at Huang Rong, and her eyes immediately looked at me, just in time to make a look. She asked me, "What are you thinking?" ”
"I'm so familiar with the name Irene."
She looked at her with strange eyes and asked, "Are you really a member of the Faqiumen family?" ”
This sentence made me confused, and my heart said that this has anything to do with what I thought? I listened to you halfway through it, and then I remembered to ask me, are you a family member, your reflex arc is too long.
"yes." In a firm tone, I admitted that I was a member of the Fa Qiu Sect family, but in fact I just wanted to continue to hear her.
"How could you not know what to do, Irene?"
As soon as I heard her say this, it was as if Irene was our Fa Chumen. I'm really familiar with the name, but the more anxious I get, the more I can't remember it. I began to think in my heart, Fa Qiumen's surname is Yi, and there is only one one person I know.
Suddenly, I thought of who this person was, the only one in Faqiumen was my master's surname Yi, and I had heard that her youngest daughter was called Irene, but I had never seen it. Thinking of Irene, it gives me a bad premonition, could it be that 3 years ago, our Fa Qiu Men also participated in this matter, I don't know what to do, and no one has mentioned it to me, is this arranged by the senior brother again?
I told Huang Rong who I remembered who Irene was, and she went on to say what happened after the little wolf left.
After kicking the wolf cub out of the group, they continued to reorganize the symbols as usual. But when I used the previous method to decipher and sort out the connection, I found that there was no connection at all.
Huang Rong began to boldly imagine that the meaning of the existence of these symbols was not the same as that found in Changbai Mountain. Changbai Mountain has sorted out two landmarks, and what is sorted out here is only scattered information. They began to change their thinking, using each symbol as a unit, conducting a single study, and no longer connecting them together.
Sure enough, she was right in this way of thinking, and soon discovered the mystery of the symbols here. The symbols here represent some directional information, which seems to play a role in guiding the direction.
They began to analyze it with this line of thought, and they did analyze a lot of directional information. Follow these messages all the way in, and every time you move forward, there will be a lot of symbolic guidance.
It wasn't until they walked into the black corridor that the symbols inside began to become messy, and they deciphered the meaning of some symbols. Among them there are several sets of symbols that represent meanings: gold, jewelry, floating coffins.
Thinking that she had made some major discovery, she organized another small meeting. Everyone wanted to go deeper, but only Liang Chao was against it, he thought that everyone should go back, the work had been completed, and there should be no time to waste here. But everyone's idea is that if they find out all this inside, it will definitely cause a sensation in the world and bring infinite glory to the research institute.
So, I decided to go inside and find out. With the consent of the sign, they began to investigate further. It turns out that they underestimated this place, and at first, the symbols they saw could still be deciphered, but the more they went inside, the more strange the symbols they found.
At the same time, what happened in the ancient tomb became even more bizarre. I saw countless corpses all the way forward, and it was indeed not easy for the three of them who worked in the research institute to see this scene and continue to move forward.
Following the guidance of the symbols, they came to the waterhole, but when they got to the waterhole, all the symbols were broken. There was no symbol to guide them, and just when everyone was about to give up and leave, Liang Chao said that he understood the true meaning of symbols.
But he didn't tell everyone what it meant, he just dived down the waterhole, and after a while he came back and said that the bottom was open and he could dive to other waterholes. And let everyone follow him, all the way to an alternative pool.
Huang Rong said that the waterhole was about the same size as this one, and the only difference was that in the middle of the waterhole, there was a coffin floating.
Huang Rong is not interested in the coffin, she just wants to parse the symbols here, but Irene and the others are very interested in the floating coffin in the waterhole. I immediately prepared to open the floating coffin in the water and wanted to find out.
and persuaded Huang Rong on the grounds that perhaps more important clues would be found in the floating coffin, or that the guidance of those symbols was just for this floating coffin. If the guidance of the symbol is only for the sake of the floating coffin, then it should be opened.
Huang Rong did not object to opening the floating coffin, but hoped that if something was discovered, she would continue to study, and if not, she would go home. She was tired of doing research here, and she couldn't bear it anymore because there were corpses everywhere all the way, so she was also desperate to know the answer.
However, it turned out to be a bad decision, and their nightmare began.
