Chapter 226, Asylum Under the Shadow
??????? Gobi? Is it a broad concept? The boundary north to the Altai Mountains and the Hangai Mountains? The western edge of the Great Khing'an Mountains in the east? South to the Altun Mountains? North Mountain and Yin Mountain? West to the East Tien Shan Mountains. According to incomplete estimates? There should be 1.3 million square kilometers. In such a broad way? And off the beaten track. Have a unique culture and a unique ethnic landscape? Of course? There are also some special ones? Something that has never been able to be verified exists.
Xu Buddha is going to the Gobi? Naturally, I don't know what his plans are? How many days do we go around? In the end, I finally entered Jiayuguan City.
Jiayuguan City in the nineties was not so developed? Surrounded by barren mountains and ancient city walls? But as an important human gathering place in the central region of the Hexi Corridor? Needless to say, the liveliness of Jiayuguan City is needless to say.
The weather in Gansu is very dry? Especially after getting close to the edge of the Gobi? It seems like there's sand in the air? I originally thought that this time I was going to live in a small hotel with Xu Fo? But you didn't expect that? As soon as we entered Jiayuguan City, someone came to greet us. How many men in blue overalls are there? The leader wears gold-rimmed eyes? Dark-skinned? Tall but thin? He wears a pair of dusty leather shoes on his feet.
"Hello. Mr. Xu? Thank you so much for coming. ”
He greeted Xu Fu very warmly? This expression is very similar to Li Jiawang I met when I was in Jilin? Are they all full of expectations? And I hope that Xu Buddha can solve the problem.
Xu Fo nodded slightly at him? A few people from the back hurriedly came over to help us carry our luggage? Very welcoming took us to a parked Santanane.
"Let me introduce myself first. I am the deputy director of the Gansu Provincial Institute of Folk Geology? My name is Wu Bing? These are my colleagues and assistants. We invite you to come this time? Is it because I know a friend who works in the fifth group of national brands? He built a bridge from it? And tell me you're well-informed. Maybe be able to help us. ”
I don't understand what he's saying? But how many names do you remember in the words? Especially the fifth group of national brands? The name gives me a very special feeling.
"Huh? This is my friend's disciple? Now follow me and run on the rivers and lakes. The situation was written in the letter you sent me before? Do you have any research breakthroughs now?"
Xu Fo didn't make it clear what was going on? This aroused my deeper curiosity.
"Don't tell you? This time we have a big discovery? But now it's inconvenient to say in the car? I'll show you when I get to the institute. ”
Wu Bing seems to be cautious? His expression became more serious.
In Jiayuguan City? What can be studied on the edge of the Gobi? Sand? Stone? Antiquities? I'm guessing all the way? But you never thought of it? This time I came to Jiayuguan City, which was a big eye-opener.
The car stopped in front of a five-story white building? A white sign hanging at the door? Written: Gansu Provincial Institute of Folk Geology 10th.
Is the building still quite clean? I can see a couple of people in white coats walking back and forth? After we get off? Wu Bing beckoned someone to help us carry our luggage? While saying, "I'll send your luggage to the guest house in the back?" If Mr. Xu is hungry, he eats first. ”
Xu Fo waved his hand and said, "Let's see what you found first?" Let's go. ”
Wu Bing nodded? Beckoned? A couple of people in white coats came over at once? Behind Wu Bing and a few of us? Got into the White Building? I found out that this white building actually has a basement? There are stairs that lead to the bottom.
"Are you all ready?"
Wu Bing turned around and asked? Someone immediately replied, "All ready?" On the third basement floor. ”
I can't help but guess? This is a basement built by a private organization? Surely there is some secret? And it's so mysterious and secretive, most of which are unspeakable? I looked around nervously as I walked down? A small dark room with a lot of dark rooms on the basement floor? Aren't it big? One next to the other? There's no light inside? But I can clearly see some shadows shaking inside? I don't know what these shadows are.
Second basement? The lights are a little brighter? Do you hear shouts from all over the room from time to time? It's far away, but I can tell the difference. Are all these cries made by humans? And there was some pain and grief in his voice.
And then there's the three basement floors? That is, our destination? What surprised me? The third basement floor is particularly empty? Also particularly bright? And a lot of people gathered? We walked into a laboratory under the guidance of Wu Bing? It was filled with people in white coats with different signs on their chests.
"Did he say it?"
Wu Bing opened his mouth and asked? Everyone stopped moving? Seen it? A flat-headed dwarf squeezed through the crowd and walked in front of Wu Bing, still shaking his head and saying, "Didn't say it? It's still a god's chatter. ”
Wu Bing frowned slightly? Then he said, "Take us there first." ”
Follow the flathead all the way forward? The crowd around seemed to be nervous when they saw Wu Bing? Walked to the center of the third basement floor? A white house right in front of you? Scattered voices could be heard coming from inside the house.
"Coming? It's coming...; …; "Why is there no light? Why is it so dark?" Got rich? Got rich? Ha ha! ”
Is this a hoarse man's voice? Is it true that God is babbling? Because I didn't understand a word of what he said? Weird sound? Like talking to yourself? But I couldn't understand what he was saying.
"Before you go in? Let me start with a brief remark. ”
Wu Bing said while giving the flat-headed short man a look? The latter immediately dispersed the surrounding crowd? Seeing that the crowd had dispersed, Wu Bing said, "Our ten institutes are considered a non-governmental organization? Basically, they rely on the funding of some wealthy people or public welfare groups to carry out research and development work. Is Gansu a large province with a particularly long history? Truly? Have we found a lot of valuable information here? But this time what happened to us was the biggest and most mysterious event in the history of our ten institutes. About three years ago? An expedition that we organized into the Gobi? At that time, I wanted to find some ancient tombs or ruins hidden in the Gobi. But I didn't expect that? Got a sandstorm on the first night you entered? Is this something we didn't expect? Because according to our observations before departure, it should always be sunny weather. How fast was the sandstorm coming? Our ranks were scattered? When everyone reassembles five days later, they find that there is one person missing? The person with less of this person is me. ”
Speaking of which, Wu Bing paused? He took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it and said, "All the electronic devices on me were destroyed at that time?" Even the map was left behind in the sandstorm? But the good thing is that after the sandstorm, my location is near an oasis? Is the Gobi no better than other great deserts? Although the desertification is serious, after all, the Gobi was a good place with abundant green grass thousands of years ago? It's not unusual to have an oasis left. I'm staying in an oasis? Waiting for the arrival of the search and rescue team? But there was a very unexpected discovery. I found some weird skins in that oasis. ”
At this point, his words seem to really get to the point.
"Skins?"
Am I fascinated by what I heard? I couldn't help but ask. The fork has good luck.
"Yes? Some skins? Like a snake or an old skin shed by an insect? But a very large number? And these shedding skins are unusually tough? Even if I cut hard with a knife, I could only tear a small hole. And? Honestly? I've never seen these skins before? Very big? Stretching for at least ten meters? I was thinking, what animal in the Gobi can grow to more than 10 meters? A place like the Gobi? The smaller the life, the longer you live? Even snakes can't grow to more than 10 meters. ”
Wu Bing said this? Xu Fo suddenly laughed? He shook his head and said, "Is this bad?" Some things can't be considered beasts. Isn't there a monster in the Gobi that has been rumored for a long time?"
As soon as this came out? Before I could react, the flat-headed man next to me suddenly blurted out in surprise: "Death worm!" ”??????
