Chapter 299: Counting is Counting
The strangeness on my face was not seen by anyone else, and everything went back to the beginning, a date and place that has haunted me for more than a decade, and I still have no idea what happened.
I didn't ask directly, Gong Yu on the other side may be the key to unlocking all this.
At the same time, Gong Yu is also the breakthrough for us to unveil the mystery of the 117th game, Gong Yu wiped the corners of He Yang's mouth while continuing to tell us.
After discovering the resonance point in Lop Nur, the 117th Bureau immediately began to move, resetting the research base in the bunker away from the resonance point of Lop Nur, and began to conduct careful and detailed exploration of the resonance point.
Strangely, any exploration equipment that comes close to the target area will be subject to extremely powerful interference, and all personnel dispatched will suffer varying degrees of brain damage.
"He's my comrade-in-arms in the 117th round." Gong Yu looked at He Yang and said to us. "Their company is responsible for cleaning up the periphery of the resonance point, He Yang They are people who can access the core secrets of the 117th Bureau, but these people who have been to the scene, it didn't take long for them to die without warning, and the body was autopsied, and no cause of death could be found at all, only a few people survived, but the brain was seriously damaged and became like him."
"So many people to be sent to investigate a location that has not been verified by certification?" Tian Ji asked.
"The Vientiane Shrine is just a ruin, even if there are amazing discoveries inside, in the final analysis, it is an archaeological discovery, why would it take so much manpower and material resources to track down the resonance point?" The palace lord was also puzzled.
"I don't know the specific reason, those murals and inscriptions found in the Vientiane Shrine, only a very few people can access, it is said that from the deciphered words and patterns, a thing that shocked the high-level of the Red Dynasty was discovered, so there will be the existence of the 117 Bureau, this mysterious department has only one task, which is to uncover the truth of the whole thing at all costs." Gong Yu said.
"You don't want to think about it, just the Ling Xuan found in the Vientiane Divine Palace, she is a person who has been sleeping for thousands of years, just with this, I'm afraid it is enough for the 117 Bureau to spare no effort to investigate, not to mention, the content of those murals and texts has not been made public, it can be seen that the things recorded on it may be more important than Ling Xuan, who has been immortal for thousands of years." I said thoughtfully.
"Master, what happened then?"
"Lop Nur has always been known as the Sea of Death, and the locals think that it is a cursed place, in fact, soon the statement about the curse went viral in the 117th Bureau, and all the people who were sent to the resonance point were as if they were cursed, either they died unexplained, or just like He Yang, their memories quickly declined, and gradually became dementia, and the most troublesome thing is that any equipment and instruments, as long as they enter the target area, will be seriously disturbed, and they cannot be used normally at all."
"Why is this happening?" Tian Ji asked.
"We speculate that there should be something hidden under the resonance point, which has been guarding the resonance point and not letting anyone get close, and in the end, there is really no way, and the No. 1 leader decided to activate Project 596."
"The 596 project was started by Gu Yuanshan!" I asked, dumbfounded.
Project 596 is the code name of the Red Dynasty's nuclear bomb experiment in Lop Nur, at that time, this project was a secret experiment above all else, but I never expected that it was my father who started this project.
Gong Yu nodded and said that conventional means could not detect the resonance point at all, and the 117th Bureau suffered serious casualties, so the No. 1 leader decided to carry out a directional nuclear explosion on the resonance site in an attempt to destroy those unknown sources of interference.
"Wait a minute, senior, you just said that a directional nuclear explosion was carried out on the resonance point, but the first nuclear explosion in Lop Nur was just an experiment, and the mature nuclear explosion technology was not mastered at that time?" Tian Ji looked puzzled.
"The truth has never been known to a few people, just like the 596 project you have always thought is actually just an excuse for the 117th Bureau to proclaim to the outside world in order to detect the resonance point." Gong Yu said to us in a low voice. "After the 117th Bureau excavated the Vientiane Shrine and discovered the resonance point of Lop Nur again, it took ten years of research in between, and the nuclear explosion technology had already been copied in these ten years."
"Copy?" The palace lord was taken aback.
"The contents of those murals and inscriptions are beyond your imagination, and by deciphering the contents of them, 117 rounds have made a large number of incredible discoveries, among which there are extraordinary destructive powers, even beyond the power of nuclear explosions."
After listening to each other, Gong Yu's words also corroborated what Xue Xinrou told us from the side, no wonder the CIA has been strengthening the surveillance of Lop Nur and launched the Iris Project, I didn't expect the 117 Bureau to hide such an amazing secret.
"Very few people really know everything that was going on in Lop Nur, and the outside world only knows that on October 16, 1964, the Red Dynasty successfully exploded the first atomic bomb in Lop Nur." Gong Yu said.
"In order to understand the truth about Lop Nur, the CIA did not hesitate to request that a geostationary orbit satellite be sent to this area to monitor it around the clock, but the final result was only the success of the Red Dynasty's first nuclear explosion experiment." I shook my head and smiled wryly.
"The truth is always in the hands of a few, and what you can know must not be the truth." Gong Yu was noncommittal to tell us. "The real intention of the nuclear explosion was to destroy the unknown interference of the resonance point, so the directional nuclear explosion was carried out, but considering that the power was too great, I was afraid that it would be destroyed along with the resonance point, so the yield was controlled at 22,000 tons of TNT, which is equivalent to the explosion yield of a 4.9 magnitude earthquake, but the result surprised all the people involved in the project at the time."
"The shock wave of a nuclear explosion has a range of less than two kilometers." Tian Ji didn't even want to blurt it out.
"How do you know?" Gong Yu looked surprised.
"Master, it's a long story, in the process of exploring the Nine Dragons Boat in the Moon Palace, we met a girl whose father once participated in a project called Iris, and the content of the plan was to monitor and find out everything that happened in Lop Nur back then."
"Iris Project......" Gong Yu smiled faintly with emotion. In fact, at that time, the 117th Bureau had always known about the CIA's plan, but it did not pay attention to it, but instead used the CIA to put the 596 project on the ground, so that the outside world believed that the 596 project was just a nuclear explosion experiment. ”
Although we already know the rest from Xue Xinrou, it is far from being as detailed as Gong Yu told us, after the directional nuclear explosion of the resonance site, with the center of the nuclear explosion as the origin, the shock wave was controlled within two kilometers at all.
Gong Yu said that after the nuclear explosion, the shock wave monitoring map obtained by the 117th Bureau showed that the shock wave was confined in a two-kilometer regular circle, which showed that in the resonance area, there was a force exceeding the strength of the nuclear explosion, protecting this area, thus confirming for the first time that the exact location of the resonance was within the range of these two kilometers.
In the resonance area, because there is an unknown energy to block the shock wave of the nuclear explosion, it does not achieve the purpose of destroying the peripheral interference at one time, but suddenly intensifies the interference, even if the monitoring station is hundreds of kilometers away, all the instruments and equipment are destroyed.
"So, there's still no way to get close to the resonance zone?" I asked.
"In fact, Project 596 still made a major breakthrough, on the second day, the 117 Bureau of Observation Station found that the continuous strong interference from the resonance site is gradually weakening, some equipment and instruments can be used normally for the first time, but the radiation in the target area is fatal, and it cannot be entered immediately for the time being, so there is only long-distance monitoring."
"What did you find?"
"It's amazing how much water mist the instrument detected from the resonance zone." Gong Yu recalled what happened at that time, and there was still inexplicable excitement on his face. "Lop Nur used to be the second largest inland lake in China, and later because of the reduction of river flow, the surrounding desertification is serious, it will quickly degrade and completely dry up, but the cause of Lop Nur drying up has been unknown, the water mist that appeared after the nuclear explosion is a large amount of water from the surface, presumably a nuclear explosion or to a certain extent, destroyed the unknown energy in the resonance area, so we infer that Lop Nur is not dry, but a large area of lake water completed and sank in the yellow sand."
We didn't interrupt Gong Yu, and listened to her quietly, as time went by, more and more water mist was monitored, and in just one day, Lop Nur, known as the Sea of Death, actually miraculously reproduced a large area of lake water, and the depth was beyond imagination.
What's even more shocking is that in the lake, the instrument actually probed the outline of the building, and this discovery made the 117 bureau happy, no one expected that there was a mysterious ruin under the sand sea more than a thousand kilometers away from the Vientiane Shrine.
Hearing this, Gong Jue suddenly looked at me: "Do you remember the foreign couple we met when we were looking for the Vientiane Shrine?" ”
I nodded, and I thought about it too, when the couple told us that Stein, who had been studying the Vientiane Shrine for a long time, had found the flying sky with a skeletal scepter in the mural he had brought back from the Western Regions.
At first, we always thought that this person called the Flying Heaven was Ling Xuan in the Vientiane Divine Palace, but Stein found that this flying sky had appeared in several murals, and these murals spanned a large period of time, but there was no inheritance between them.
At that time, Stein speculated that the palace in the Western Regions was real, and even the flying sky with the skeletal scepter was probably not necessarily a mythical celestial, but a real person.
At the same time, Stein saw in a mural that this flying sky stood on top of a unique ancient city in the Western Regions, and the bottom was full of devout worshippers, but the shape of the ancient city in the Western Regions was very different from other Western Regions architectural styles, more like a palace, so Stein deduced that there should be two unknown palaces in the sand sea of the Western Regions.
One is the Vientiane Shrine that we have discovered, and the other place, we have not known where, according to Stein's research, the two places are completely different in the style of construction, and the last found mural shows that in the ancient city where Feitian stands, there should be a towering altar, and at the top of the altar there is a sign that has not appeared in the Western Regions culture at all.
"Feathered Dragon!" Gong Yu nodded and said to us affirmatively. "The diminishing interference allowed the equipment and instruments of the 117th Bureau to function normally, and in the mist, we detected the outline of the building, and gradually sketched a complete ruin, just as you said, in the center of this ruin, there is a towering altar, and at the top is a flying dragon with wings spreading."
"The feather dragon is the symbol of the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, could it be that the ruins found in Lop Nur are also related to the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace?" Tian Ji asked.
"The existence of the Vientiane Shrine is enough to prove the authenticity of the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, and the woman who has been sleeping in the Vientiane Shrine for thousands of years, although there are signs of life, but the 117 Bureau has tried its best to make this woman wake up, but the miraculous thing is that after the ruins of Lop Nur appeared, this woman suddenly showed signs of recovery."
"This woman is the ancestor of the Ling family, her name is Ling Xuan." I told Gong Yu everything we knew. "Did Ling Xuan wake up in the end?"
"Almost......" Gong Yu shook his head with a gloomy expression. In the sea of sand, why are there two ruins, both of which are related to the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, we have never figured out the reason, we originally expected Ling Xuan to wake up and reveal all the secrets, but who knew that something unexpected happened......"
