Chapter 7 Gathering
readx;??? I looked at Gao Yanan and asked, "Captain, how is the country going to let us go?" Which country to get to first? ”
Gao Yanan nodded and said, "If you don't ask, I'll say it." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoWe flew to Morocco. The embassy is ready. On this trip, Morocco is the closest place to Atlantis. It is believed that now Morocco is already overcrowded. According to the information sent back by the Chinese embassy in Morocco, the number of scientific expeditions entering Morocco has reached more than 700 people. Even armed fire has already occurred in a dozen. Moroccan zhèngfu is now taking a wait-and-see attitude, and as long as there is no danger to zhèngfu and civilians, they do not intend to intervene. After all, these people all represent a country, and Morocco doesn't want to cause trouble. ”
Leng Feng sighed and said, "It's like this every time, since they all go for the same purpose, why can't they work together and work together?" Do you have to fight to the death and lose both sides to show loyalty to the country? ”
I shook my head and said, "People are greedy, and they are all for their own interests. It's not like you don't know that if we bring Di Xin back, the state will give a part of the reward. Other countries must be like this, maybe even higher, give you a worry-free second half of your life, you will do it. ”
Bai Ling shook his head and said, "I won't, it's not worth joking with my life." ”
Gao Yanan said with a smile: "If it were all your mentality, then there would be no war." Think about it, too, Atlantis has not yet been found, and dozens of people have already died in the bloodshed on the streets of Morocco. We are prepared that tomorrow or the day after tomorrow we will also go to Balat to investigate the northern part of the Canary Islands. ”
We hurriedly agreed, and Gao Yanan said again: "You just wear all the things you once had, those diving equipment and bayonet guns used in the water and other things." The embassies in Morocco are all ready. So we don't need to bring too many things. ”
I asked, "Do you have those waterproof flashlights or anything like that?" ”
Gao Yanan shook his head and said, "No, we have to prepare these ourselves." And the rope, which we also want to carry. The same goes for sabers. Except for diving equipment and bayonet guns for self-defense in the water, we had to carry the rest. ”
Wang Zongjun said with a smile: "Captain, your words are tantamount to saying in vain. The equipment is all underwater, but we don't miss it at all. You just just say let's just sort out the usual equipment and bring it with you. ”
Gao Yanan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Take whatever you want, you can just do it yourself." ”
I went home and ordered a few boxes of miniature oxygen cylinders first, and this time I went straight into the water, who knows what danger is inside? It's better to prevent problems than to prevent them from happening. Besides, it doesn't cost much. Now we don't say that we have money, but we don't care about this money anymore. Every time we come back, we can bring something that we will never run out of use for the rest of our lives. To tell the truth, we are tomb robbers in the name of archaeology, and we are still upright and bright, supported by the state.
After two days of preparation, we just arrived at Balat, where the people from the embassy were already waiting for us. On the way to the embassy, you can see archaeological teams from various countries everywhere. But we know that a large part of these archaeological teams are fake. There is no organization that is not impressed by the legendary Atlantis. It is estimated that Qin Tai's international tomb robbery group is also here, and there is more than one team coming, and there is also the possibility of all of them.
For so many outsiders, Moroccan zhèngfu also feels that his head is big, who knows if there are terrorist organizations or mercenaries who come to make trouble. Africa is their base camp, and with their ability to come and go without a trace in the desert, Moroccan zhèngfu can't control it, so they can only strictly protect the zhèngfu organs from invading. Due to the laissez-faire of zhèngfu, there is often chaos on the streets.
The embassy also warned us not to go out at will, so as not to be in danger. We rested at the embassy for two days, experimenting with the equipment prepared by the embassy, and it was not until we could use it proficiently that Gao Yanan made a request to leave. The Ambassador to Morocco personally saw us off and gave us many words of encouragement and reminded us to be more careful.
This section is also the most exciting for Moroccan tourism companies and fishermen, and there is an endless stream of people who come to rent boats, which makes Moroccan fishermen happy to look like something, and they feel fluttering when they walk. The embassy had already booked a speedboat for us at the tour company, and although no one came, the rent was paid every day. It has been six days since it was set, and the embassy has only paid the rent for ten days. The shipbuilding industry in Morocco was already underdeveloped, but now shipyards are open at night, and no matter what the quality is, as long as it does not leak and can be operated, everyone buys it. The fishermen also aimed at business opportunities, and small wooden boats were launched non-stop, with nothing but two pulps and a simple rudder, and just like that, the supply was still in short supply. Morocco has limited forests, and the price of timber is rising, but the quantity is still insufficient. Some people use beds, wooden tables and other things, but they still don't have enough.
Fortunately, European countries have come by boat at a higher price, so there are not too many people who do not go to sea. Later, several countries shared a boat, which solved the urgent need. The most enthusiastic Americans drove an aircraft carrier directly, saying that they would escort us and rescue people who had fallen into the water in the event of a storm. Every autumn, hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean, like typhoons in the Pacific Ocean, will continue to generate at a very fast rate. It's just that they usually go to the United States. On the Moroccan side, there really aren't a few hurricanes that make landfall here.
Although they all know the meaning of the United States, no one will talk nonsense at his doorstep. Not far behind, Russia drove an aircraft carrier, which came out of the Mediterranean, and was not at all further than the United States. Britain also came to an aircraft carrier that was about to be scrapped, saying that it was coming for the safety of other countries' personnel and that they could have a comfortable environment to rest. In the face of the increasingly fierce situation, we can only sigh helplessly. An unusual expedition turned into a wrestling affair with several countries.
However, there are many reefs near the Canary Islands, and the water is not deep, and several aircraft carriers are guarding the perimeter, keeping an eye on these treasure divers. We don't care about that, and if it's that easy, Atlantis wouldn't be an unsolved mystery. Even if Atlantis were here, it was probably under deep silt or wrapped in volcanic lava, and it was not exposed at all. So no matter how much you look for it, you can't understand the picture that people need.
Britain and the United States brought a large water impact equipment, like a high-pressure water dragon, to send high-pressure water directly to the bottom of the sea, with the continuous impact of high-pressure water, the seabed slowly became clear and visible, but there is still black lava below, whether Atlantis is under the volcanic lava is not visible, let alone high-pressure water cannon can open.
In order to protect the prehistoric civilization below, this time the United States did not use such things as savagely using depth charges, but directly sent a few excellent divers with grinders to slowly cut through the volcanic lava below. The long cable goes directly to the engines on the carrier, and several people take turns working, and it seems that it will only take a few days to cut through this layer of lava. Instead of going straight down below, the United States cut a diagonal entrance and slowly stretched inside. This makes it more difficult, but it is effective in protecting the lava from collapse. Because volcanic lava slowly condenses as it flows, the rock can be divided into layers of shale. However, it is not as strong as shale, because it is not as continuous as shale.
This time the United States may really be determined to be ahead of all the nations, with divers constantly changing, day and night. Divers' air breathing apparatus is only compressed air, not pure oxygen. Because pure oxygen can make the heart unbearable and lead to death. Generally, pure oxygen respirators will be equipped with a pressure reducing valve to suppress the release of oxygen to a minimum, which is only enough. But there are also certain dangers. So American divers just used ordinary compressed air cylinders. However, this kind of gas cylinder generally supports a person for about half an hour, and cannot be used for a long time.
Britain and Russia, who had followed suit, also joined the cutting method. All three divers left each other's distance in the same way. The surrounding boats are gathered nearby, quietly waiting for the competition of these countries. It's just that I have to enter one step later, and it's not that I don't have the opportunity to get the treasure, it's just that it's relatively reduced. No one knows how big it is down there, and it's not clear who wins and who loses. According to Plato's story, it takes two or three days for everyone to go in and find it, and it is only a rough search. If you dig carefully, I am afraid that it may not be possible to complete the investigation in a month or two.
But according to Plato's account, I am afraid that we really have to look for it slowly. How can there be so many gaps in a city buried by volcanic lava? I'm afraid I entered while digging.
Divers in several countries are moving more and more slowly, moving out of each stone and then mining it in. Although both Russia and the United States eventually changed their tactics and increased the width of the excavation so that people could move stones while mining, the additional amount of mining limited their progress. It's not faster than opening a board by one, but slower. But as the excavation stretched, Russia and the United States finally overtook Britain.
Although several major powers have excavated near the Canary Islands, many expeditions are not limited to the Canary Islands, but include the northern islands of Madeira and the Azores. But a few decades ago, some archaeologists said that the Atlantis was most likely in the Azores, but in the past two years, through the announcement of China's zhèngfu, countries around the world are still more convinced, so this time the center is directly set within the scope of China's announcement, that is, between Madeira and the Canary Islands.
Of course, we know that these are brought out of that pyramid of the Golden City in the Amazon, and there can be no mistake. After all, the Amazon jungle and Africa are separated by an Atlantic Ocean, not too far apart. Moreover, 50,000 or 60,000 years ago, Latin America and Africa were even closer. For this piece of news, we are also very confident that we can confirm his true xing. Most of the Mayan writing was deciphered, but I don't know when the Minotaur script could be deciphered? We believe that the golden book we obtained on the plateau of Enajel, if it can be interpreted, has the potential to shake the world. The effect was even greater than the sensation caused by the first atomic bomb.
Lu Liang looked at me and asked, "Boss, do we still have to wait here?" ”
I looked at the American and Russian aircraft carriers and said, "Now we just have to wait for them to turn on." We don't have the ability to dig out such an estuary of the East River, we just hope that they will soon find a way down, and we can just go down, and whether we can find something depends on luck. Do you think that American aircraft carriers are really escorting us? If we do get good things, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back. ”
Gao Yanan nodded and said, "Professor Shui is right. We're thinking about that as well. When I came, the relevant state departments said that this place is too close to the mainland of the United States, and if there is danger, let us give up the search, let them give up the search, and let them be majestic for a while, anyway, in the end, we know the same. ”
Gao Gao Ping said: "Otherwise, if we find something useful, it will only be a part of it that will be published." You think, if the United States gets it, how many things will they publish out? You know, it's very likely that this is a sacred place for the Mayans. Maybe it's really Atlantis? Although there is no strong evidence here, our country only speculates that this is Atlantis, and there is no explanation. The published information says that there is a Mayan site here, possibly Atlantis. Actually, we don't know. So, for now, we can only think of it as Atlantis. ”
Ye Manqing said: "Is it Atlantis or Atlantis? How do you say differently? ”
I smiled and said, "Atlantis is Atlantis, but the pronunciation is different, so there is a little difference in our translation into Chinese, but it doesn't matter, anyway, this is the place." ”
Watching the divers in and out in the distance, we really follow this speed, and it may not take long to get through. We couldn't help but get nervous, hoping for them to get through, but we didn't want to let them get through so easily. This kind of contradiction makes us suffer from gains and losses. I can only wait nervously.
Suddenly, divers from all three countries returned to the surface and waved back to the aircraft carrier. Looks like they want to rest. After a day of mining stones, it is estimated that they are tired enough. Suddenly a small boat came towards us, it was Russian people. The Russian man said, "Our general has a please. Hopefully we can work together. ”
Leng Feng's Russian said well, and immediately translated us in real time, we looked at each other, I nodded and said, "Let's go, let's go and see." Maybe we're going to have to use their power. ”
Came to the Russian aircraft carrier, walked into the hall and found that the Americans and the British were there. Are we stunned? What's going on? How did they all get together? Could it really be that the Atlantis are down there, and they came to us to discuss the distribution of benefits? Or do you want to ask us for more specific internal details?
Everyone stood up to greet us, and we felt flattered. I hurriedly said, "If you have any questions, just ask, I know everything, and I will say everything." ”
"Boss, come and have a look." I took a closer look, and it turned out to be Qin Tai. Uh, Qin Tai? I rubbed my eyes in disbelief, looking at it here, it was really Qin Tai. I couldn't help but blurt out: "Damn, why are you kid?" When did your international tomb robbery syndicate cooperate with the national zhèngfu? ”
Qin Tai smiled awkwardly and said, "We are originally from the country, I am from the CIA, and I only joined the international tomb robbery group to investigate the disappearance of those scientists." Because I am of Chinese descent, I was entrusted with the important position of the head of the tomb robbery group in China. He pointed to the people next to him and said, "Sonny, like me, is also a CIA guy. Only now we all know that the disappearance of those archaeologists and scientists has nothing to do with the international tomb robber syndicate, so we are back. ”
Hearing what he said, we were immediately petrified, we heard it right? Is this still the ruthless Qin Tai who can kill countless people in order to achieve his goal? It's actually someone from the CIA, today shouldn't be April Fool's Day, right?
Qin Tai smiled slightly and said, "You heard it right. I'm here to catch up and discuss the situation. The situation here is more complicated, and through the excavation of our three parties, this was discovered. He said as he took out a piece of paper and shook it at us, "This is the shape down here." ”
We hurriedly leaned over to take a look, and our hearts were suddenly shocked, and we hurriedly asked, "Qin Tai, you are not mistaken, right?" Is it really this shape? Is this figure you, um, imaginary, or is it judged after mining on the basis of hurried rocks? According to my analysis, you shouldn't have been chiseled yet, right? I can't tell the shape here. I guess you fantasized about it. ”
Qin Tai raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Professor Water is Professor Water, I can't hide anything from you." Indeed, the Demon Suppression Talisman is something we imagined. However, you also know that there is no use in fantasizing about things that are not based on facts. So, here we also have a factual basis, which is this. He pulled out a photograph and said, "This is a picture taken by an underwater camera." (To be continued.) )
