Chapter 62: Introduction

After listening to the second uncle, I finally understood why this place is so important, it turns out that there is still a sarcophagus hidden here. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It seems that the Meng family and the Murong family at that time were indeed crazy, and they actually transferred the sarcophagus from the desert here. You must know that there was no modern means of transportation in that era, and it was not an ordinary effort to secretly transport a sarcophagus here.

"This sarcophagus has been hidden here for thousands of years, could it be that the Meng family and the Murong family have been guarding it here? Or did they give up on the experiment and give up on it as well? I asked.

"When the sarcophagus was first transported here, there were indeed a lot of people guarding it, but then there was no need for people to guard it anymore."

"No need for guards anymore?" I wondered, "Why don't you need to be guarded?" Is there something wrong with the body in the sarcophagus? Or is there something going on here? ”

"No, it's because there is a safer way than guarding it by people, so there is no need for people to guard it." The second uncle replied.

"It's safer than a human guard, you can't be talking about those monsters, right?" The old prostitute interjected.

The second uncle shook his head and said, "We will be able to enter in a while, as soon as you see the situation inside, you will understand." ”

While talking to the second uncle, I saw that the fifth senior brother was leading someone to bring water and spray it into the dusty passage inside. It looked like they were using water to deal with the toxic dust in the tunnel.

"Looks like you're really familiar with this place, and you know what to do with the toxic dust." I said.

The second uncle smiled and said, "Actually, like you, we are also coming in for the first time, but we have some information about this place, so we are much more straightforward."

After speaking, he turned his head and asked the fifth senior brother how long it would take, and the fifth senior brother replied that it would take at least forty minutes, because the water source was too far away, and it was very time-consuming to rely on manpower to fetch water.

After hearing the fifth senior brother's answer, he urged a few more words, reminding the fifth senior brother that some key parts in the corners must be done carefully, and must not be sloppy. Then the second uncle turned his head and asked me, "Is there anything else you want to ask?" We have forty minutes to say everything you want to know, and if I know it, I'll tell you. ”

Faced with such frank words from my second uncle, I was a little at a loss. Suddenly I had an indescribable intimacy with him, and it felt like when I was a child, when my master was talking to me. I retrieved some memories from him that I almost had forgotten.

"You are really similar to the master, I am not only talking about your looks, but also the tone of your voice and the attitude of doing things." I don't know what's wrong with me, so I said such an emotional sentence.

"Actually" the second uncle just said two words and stopped, then took out a cigarette and lit it, looked at me and said: "Actually, I rarely see your master, and when I was already an adult, I only knew that there was a twin brother. But that's just knowing, because we don't know who we are, so we can't see each other. ”

"Different identities? Are you born into a hierarchy? I wondered.

"When I say different identities, it's not that there is a hierarchy, but that there is a different way of life. To put it simply, one is in the light and the other is in the dark. But you don't have to know why, because it doesn't help you at all, and it makes no difference between knowing and not knowing, so you might as well ask something else. ”

"You said before that the master went to the sea to protect here, and the senior brother and you are both members of the Meng family, he should know the purpose of the master's going there, but why did he take me to the underwater tomb in the name of finding the master?"

This is the question I want to know the most after listening to the second uncle talk about the Meng family and the Murong family, because it makes me very puzzled. If the senior brother already knew the purpose of the master going to the sea eight years ago, then why did he take me to the bottom of the sea eight years later, and he went to the sea in the name of looking for the master, knowing that the master was not there eight years ago, why did he go to the ancient tomb under the sea.

"Alas!" The second uncle sighed and said: "Some things are very helpless, the reason why your master wanted to take those people to the sea was because Tian Yuan Lux found out here at that time, and he also knew some things about the Meng family, so your master had to make this choice at that time." And that submarine tomb has a special significance, it used to be a base camp of the Tiger Regiment, and it was also the resting place of the early patriarchs of the Meng family, of course, there are also things about experiments, so your master will choose to take them there, because it is enough to attract their attention, and it is also sure enough to trap them there, which is a plan that seems foolproof. But your master deceived everyone, including our Meng family. We met before he set off, and he said that he had learned about the inner workings of the seabed, and that he could survive there until people forgot about him, and that he wanted to study some of the techniques of the Meng ancestors there. ”

The second uncle took two puffs of cigarette and continued: "Actually, your senior brother didn't know all of your master's plans back then, and he, like me in the early days, also believed in the plans your master said. It wasn't until you went into the sea again that he learned that your master was lying, that your master didn't know anything about it, that he was explaining that the internal structure of it was nothing at all, and that he was only trying to get us to agree with him as an introduction, so he made up this plan that made us look foolproof. In retrospect, your master was ready to sacrifice at that time, but we were too naΓ―ve to find out. ”

"You're saying that the master deliberately made up some lies to deceive you in order to get you to agree to his plan. Was it necessary for him to do so? Did you have other plans at the time, so he had to lie to get you to agree to his plan? I asked.

"There are no other plans, but we do have points of disagreement about this plan. At that time, the plan of the Meng family was to let your senior brother do this introduction, not your master's ......"

"I see." Before the second uncle's words were finished, I answered.

What a simple truth, the master exchanged his life for the life of the senior brother, I think this is the result of his careful consideration, not a momentary impulsive decision, which is very in line with my master's character.

Somehow, for a while, the atmosphere became depressing, and my mind was full of images of the master and the elder brother.

"I can't imagine that your Meng family's base camp is actually at the bottom of the sea, this is simply incredible, no wonder you are so mysterious." The old prostitute sighed on the side.

"No, it wasn't originally an ocean floor, it was an island. A few hundred years ago, there was a powerful earthquake there, and the island sank in response to the changes brought about by the earthquake. In fact, there are still many things from the Meng family that have not been brought out, so for hundreds of years, there have always been people from the Meng family who have gone there to search for things that belong to the Meng family. However, those anti-theft mechanisms originally designed by the Meng family cost many lives of the Meng family. ”

"Oh my god, isn't it, you can't break the mechanism designed by your own family." The old prostitute was surprised.

"Yes, it sounds like a joke, the wisdom of our ancestors may really be richer than ours, and there are many mechanisms that our descendants have not been able to understand for generations."
