Chapter 18: The Treasure of the Heavenly King

About 30 years ago, in the dense mountains and forests of Guiping, Guangxi, a team of more than 10 people was braving the summer heat to walk through the forest.

The leader of this team is none other than Professor Chen Yongnian. The purpose of their entry into the mountain this time is to find the legendary Tomb of the Heavenly King!

Under the leadership of Professor Chen, the team crossed the mountains and finally came to a big mountain. I saw this big mountain, three mountains are connected, the middle is high, and the sides are low. There is a lake at the bottom of the mountain, and the blue water of the lake is in harmony with the mountains. Professor Chen looked at the map in his hand and said, "This is it!" ”

When the rest of the squad heard this, they couldn't help but feel excited.

Seeing that it was getting late, the team was at the foot of the mountain, beside the lake, camped that night, and prepared to rest for the night, and then go up the mountain tomorrow to find the tomb of the Heavenly King.

After a night of silence, the next morning, when Professor Chen woke up and walked out of the tent, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded. It turned out that in this valley, I don't know when, there were dozens of tents, and they were guarded by fully armed soldiers on all sides.

The purpose of Professor Chen's trip was only to discover the Tomb of the Heavenly King, and as for further excavation work, he had to apply for a report to the higher authorities. So he didn't bring many people with him. In this detachment, three were his own students, an old guide, two government officials, and five soldiers in charge of security.

But the situation in front of him made Professor Chen a little overwhelmed. There was a faint sense of foreboding in his heart.

Sure enough, I saw a middle-aged officer come out of the tent next to him and say, "You are Professor Chen!" ”

Professor Chen nodded and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The man said, "My surname is Fan, just call me Captain Fan." From today onwards, I will be solely responsible for the excavation of the Tomb of the Heavenly King! You just have to cooperate with me! ”

Professor Chen couldn't help but be furious when he heard this: "Dig! We don't even understand where this mausoleum is, what excavation! You guys are really funny, besides, when I was leaving, I was instructed to only find out, not dig! ”

Captain Fan listened and said: "You may have heard that in recent years, tomb robbers have been rampant, and several large tombs have been destroyed by them, causing immeasurable losses to the country and the people. Therefore, in order to better protect the Tomb of the Heavenly King, after you left, the leader specially instructed us to find and excavate as soon as possible to prevent it from being destroyed by lawbreakers! ”

Professor Chen listened and said, "Your words are unfounded, what do you make me believe in you!" ”

Captain Fan took out an official document from his body and handed it to Professor Chen, who saw that it was not only stamped with the official seal of the government, but also the signature of the superior leader. Professor Chen had seen the leader's signature several times, and he looked at it carefully, and the handwriting was genuine.

In this case, Professor Chen had no choice but to obey the order and began the discovery and excavation of the Tomb of the Heavenly King.

In fact, as long as the general direction is set, it is only a matter of time before the Tomb of the Heavenly Kings is discovered. Sure enough, a few days later, Professor Chen found the entrance to the Tomb of the Heavenly Kings on the mountain. Then comes the intense excavation!

On this night, in order to celebrate the successful opening of the entrance to the Tomb of the Heavenly King, Captain Nafan specially ordered a day off.

Everybody was drinking wildly.

Tomorrow is about to enter the mausoleum, Professor Chen's mood is both excited and a little uneasy! I was excited that my years of research were not in vain, and I finally found the Tomb of the Heavenly King and confirmed my speculation. Uneasy, he always felt that this Captain Fan and the soldiers he brought with him had a gangster spirit in their bones, and they didn't look like regular soldiers at all.

At this time, I saw that the door of the tent was opened, and one of his students, Wu Peng, walked in drunk, and when he saw Professor Chen, he said, "Professor, come and I'll have a drink with you, everyone is happy today!" ”

Professor Chen has always hated drinking, not only does he not drink at all, but he also requires his students not to drink either. I didn't expect this Wu Peng to drink like this today.

Professor Chen was about to reprimand Wu Peng, but he didn't expect Wu Peng to stumble and fall into his arms. Professor Chen was about to help Wu Peng up, but Wu Peng stuffed a note into Professor Chen's hand and then glanced at Professor Chen.

Only then did Professor Chen react, it turned out that he was pretending to be drunk!

At this time, I only heard Wu Peng say: "Oh, forget it, you don't drink, I'll find someone else to drink" Saying that, he stood up, quickly walked out of the tent, and when he arrived outside the tent, he only heard him say: "Oh, Staff Officer Liu, you also came to Professor Chen for a drink!" ”

A person's voice outside the tent said, "Yes, yes" was the voice of Staff Officer Liu.

I only heard Wu Peng say: "Professor Chen, he doesn't drink, you don't have to invite him, go, I'll drink with you!" ”

Only then did Professor Chen understand why Wu Peng didn't say something directly just now, instead of handing him a note, it turned out that Staff Officer Liu had been eavesdropping outside.

Thinking of this, Professor Chen couldn't help but feel a wave of fear in his heart!

I heard that Wu Peng and Staff Officer Liu had walked away. Professor Chan then opened the note.

I saw a few words written on the note: "Professor, see you in the mountain grove after twelve o'clock tonight!" I will take Xiao Han and Xiao Zhou with me, and escape immediately after the convergence. These people are all fakes, and they killed everyone else in the detachment! I saw it with my own eyes, and I destroyed it after seeing it! ”

After reading the note, Professor Chen only felt a chill rushing to his heart, and he only felt a chill on his back, and it turned out that before he knew it, his back was already soaked in cold sweat.

No wonder Professor Chen always felt that after this Captain Fan's person came, the atmosphere of the team suddenly became weird, and he thought that he was worried about it, but he didn't expect that the team really had a problem. If Captain Fan kills everyone else in the team, then these days, the members of the team who follow him should be asked by Captain Fan to impersonate. With that in mind, it's easy to figure out other things.

Since they can ask someone to pretend to be a member of the team, the official documents, including the identities they use now, can also be impersonated.

Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on Professor Chen's forehead.

Who is so bold as to dare to make such a bold and reckless action.

And more importantly, what they are tracking themselves to get here!

Professor Chen's team has been in a very strict state of secrecy, who leaked the information.

Professor Chan pondered for a long time in the tent, but he couldn't get the point. The more he thought about it, the more terrifying he felt, seeing that the time agreed with Wu Peng was getting closer and closer, Professor Chen didn't dare to think about it any longer, so he quickly packed his luggage briefly, and then quietly walked out of the tent.

He hurried to the agreed place, but he didn't find Wu Peng and the others, and when he was anxious, he suddenly shot out more than a dozen flashlights from the grass next to him and shone on his face, only to see that Captain Fan walked out of the grass with more than a dozen people and said, "Professor Chen, are you looking for those three students of yours?" ”

Professor Chen was angry and frightened when he heard this: "What have you done to them, let them go!" ”

Captain Fan sneered and said, "You come with me!" ”

Captain Fan led Professor Chen to a tent with two soldiers guarding the door. As soon as I entered the tent, I felt that the cold was overwhelming, and it turned out that the tent was full of huge ice blocks.

I saw the bodies of the other members of the team, lying peacefully on the ice, but his three students were missing.

When Professor Chen saw this, he collapsed in an instant, and collapsed to the ground crying bitterly.

I only heard Captain Fan say: "Professor Chen, since everyone has torn their faces, then I will say it directly." You now have two options, one is to join us and we will provide you with ample funding and resources for you to complete your research. The second is to reject us. But in that case, the corpses of you and your three students will be lying in this tent tomorrow."

When I heard this, I couldn't help but say: "It seems that Professor Chen is also forced to be helpless, and at this time, it is me who has no choice but to surrender." ”

Tie Ying said: "After Professor Chen joined some people, they poured out the things in the Heavenly King's Mausoleum, leaving only a few cultural relics for camouflage at the scene. Captain Fan put the bodies of those squad members into the mausoleum, and then pretended that the mausoleum collapsed and crushed several people to death. ”

After Professor Chen returned to the school with three students, he submitted a report to the above, and soon the higher authorities decided to excavate the tomb of the Heavenly King, and Professor Chen led the people into the mountain again. Although most of the things in the Tomb of the Heavenly Kings were transported away by Captain Fan, they still left some quite valuable cultural relics, and Professor Chen became famous overnight because of the discovery of this Heavenly King Tomb.
