Chapter 458: His Confession

The fat man shrunk his neck and whispered, "No... What the. ”

At this time, everyone's eyes were staring at the computer screen, and the data was quickly simulated in the program written by Han Qingxin, and the simulation was repeated over and over again in the special sunlit environment of the sand-buried ancient city, and the 80 humanoid statues refracted rays of light to connect each other, and the index of time and date was instantaneously changing in days.

"Don't jump to June again, we just can't afford to wait." Zhu Beichen muttered silently in his heart, paying attention to the data in front of the screen. Almost all of them are waiting for the computer's simulation.

The light refracted by the eyes of all the statues is densely connected compared to the spider web map, the complicated deduction process is finally over, fate seems to have played a big joke with everyone, and the date shows that it is April 1, the well-known April Fool's Day. Whether it has a special meaning or not will only be known to the original designer, and this date is the next day.

The sudden sense of happiness suddenly came when they were not ready, Han Qingxin, Qijian, Zhu Beichen, Jiang Erye, and the fat man were all carried away by the fact in front of them, as if they were not ready to meet the arrival of the sand-buried ancient city, and this mysterious ancient city that had been dusty for many years and attracted countless explorers would descend on this square as promised along the established pace in the past.

The first to scream was the fat man, whose shrill screams instantly broke the silence in the tent, mixed with the buzzing sound of the computer: "April Fool's Day, no." Second master, are you kidding us on the computer? ”

I don't know if it was a coincidence or destined, Zhu Beichen couldn't believe it, he remembered the dream, and the woman in the dream told him that she wanted him to come to the ancient city to save herself. Although they don't know who they are, they have a hunch that the gates of this ancient city will open because of their arrival. Is this date really just a coincidence?

Qiyue tugged at the corner of Zhu Beichen's clothes and asked in a low voice, "Beichen, what are you thinking?" Zhu Beichen's stunned expression undoubtedly proves that he has something hidden in his heart.

Jiang Erye shook his senses and hurriedly picked up Su Hao's diary in front of the folding table, and looked at the record of April 1. Page after page was flipped through quickly, and the result was undoubtedly disappointing, except for the blank record for this day, and even the record for the two days before and after that was empty. Su Hao's diary is not coherent, he only records important things. Therefore, it is not known whether there were two date periods for the opening of the entrance to the ancient city.

Second Master Jiang breathed a breath of cold air, and the atmosphere inside the tent became oppressive. Emotional, he lit a cigarette and took two deep breaths to slowly calm down his emotions, restrained himself in a hoarse voice and said, "Okay, the matter is finally over, you can sleep peacefully tonight." Regardless of whether the date of this deduction is correct or not, the answer will be solved tomorrow, so let's disperse, and be sure to rest well tonight. ”

The old man pushed the crowd impatiently, pushed them out of the tent, extinguished the lights in the tent, and repeatedly couldn't sleep, this result was too unexpected, and the thought that the next day he could enter the coveted sand-buried ancient city, and many ancient scrolls and treasures buried in the smoke and dust of history were about to be displayed in front of him. After many generations of excavations and archaeologists who have spent half their lives unknowingly the exact location of the ancient city, it is now in his hands that he will personally open the door to this mysterious treasure house.

……

……

"As for this old guy, isn't it an ancient city, he was so excited to drive us out, and he was afraid that we would rob him." In the final analysis, no matter how powerful Jiang Er Ye is, after all, he is still alone, if everyone can get along calmly before, now in the face of huge interests, the fat man has to think about the matter after entering the ancient city.

The lights of each tent gradually went out, and the remaining snowflakes covered the spiky tent roof, and Zhu Beichen had just laid down in his sleeping bag to rest, when a chubby figure outside the tent was already standing there. Even Zhu Beichen didn't notice how long he had been standing, and from the size of his body, he could roughly confirm that he was fat, but this ghost place was too remote, and the surrounding area was deserted, who knew if it was a person or something else.

Zhu Beichen asked tentatively: "Fatty, is it you?" In his memory, the figure of the dragon in the Jiuqu River Valley appeared again, and when the fat man called his name, the shadow outside the tent paused, and Zhu Beichen put down his mind and opened the tent curtain.

As soon as he got out of the tent, he naturally bumped into someone else, it was the fat man who pretended to be a ghost in the middle of the night, but at this time, he put away the shelf of daytime jokes and frolicking, stood outside the tent with a rigid face, and asked if there was sandalwood on his body. It must be that piece of rejuvenating incense, he still has that piece of thing, Zhu Beichen just wanted to curse him for coming out in the middle of the night to scare people, which fat man quickly made a silent gesture, and then looked at Jiang Erye's tent, and mysteriously pulled Zhu Beichen towards the periphery of the camp.

In the distance, the shadows of the mountains and mottled trees swayed in the wind on the top of the mountain, and the cold moonlight sprinkled on the fat man's white, tender and fat face. Along the way, the two of them never communicated with each other, the more they walked, the more deserted they became, and they could see the huge human-faced statue by the light on the side of the road, Zhu Beichen was so depressed that he wanted to ask the fat man what he wanted to do, but the fat man with his back laughing and not serious on weekdays was completely fat, and even Zhu Beichen, who had been with him for a while and thought he had figured out the fat man's temperament, was a little unable to see through him.

In short, the current fat man seems to be a different person and has become unfamiliar.

Bang! Zhu Beichen bumped into the fat man's back, and at some point he finally stopped, Zhu Beichen staggered back a few steps and stumbled to stabilize his body.

The fat man didn't turn around in time, he still turned his back to Zhu Beichen, raised his head slightly, his facial features were facing the starry sky, he took a few deep breaths, like greed and inhaling things that he couldn't see or touch at all, and looked at the mountains in the distance.

"You..." just started, only to feel that the faint breath around the fat man made people feel like a cicada, and swallowed the words raw. Could it be that there is really something wrong with that piece of rejuvenating incense, a person's temperament and feeling have completely changed, and Zhu Beichen felt stunned when he thought of the piece of rejuvenating incense that the fat man carried with him. It is said that the rejuvenating incense is used on the dead, if the living smell smells this smell all year round, will the body have abnormal changes?

"What are you thinking?" A cold voice came, interrupting Zhu Beichen's reverie, and his voice became different from usual, calm and calm, with a little indifference.

"No, I didn't think about anything." People who have problems themselves are the most taboo to be reminded to ask the fat man bluntly if he is sick, it is inevitable that he will burst out, and there are only two of them left around, Zhu Beichen had to answer vaguely.

The fat man's attention was still focused on the mountains, looking up at the moonlight-stained mid-air, his dull eyes seemed to penetrate the empty space, as if he was looking at the sky above his head, which was the location of the entire ancient city. But now it was empty, and he didn't know if he saw anything in his retina.

"The ancients' use of natural science, for the attainment of optical architecture is really amazing, the repeated refraction of the sun's rays has made a huge city hidden in the dark for thousands of years, on the contrary, our modern science and technology has just achieved something complacent, thinking that it is omnipotent, thinking that it is really ridiculous in front of ancient science and technology, are you right, Beichen?" The fat man's incomparable concentration, although he said it to Zhu Beichen, was actually more like a kind of awe for ancient civilization.

Zhu Beichen was dumbfounded, subconsciously this fat man felt more and more strange to himself, what he saw now was the character that the fat man should have, he hid too deeply before, or did he change people, "It's admirable, I'm looking forward to tomorrow." ”

Fat Man said: "Lop Nur, Guloulan, Sun Tomb, all kinds of historical sites can be traced back to the Han Dynasty, but more and more facts prove that everything here does not belong to that glorious dynasty, optical technology and large-scale light scenery and other natural light use is at its peak." Wouldn't you be surprised by the origin of these technologies? The legends of ancient books contain amazing technology, and all of this in front of us shows us the content recorded in ancient books one by one. The technology in this ancient book is enough to drive the whole world crazy, and even centuries ago there were several forces chasing the place of this ancient book, and now we will be the second group of people to come here. ”

Why is it the second batch, what else does the fat man know, and can his current performance justify himself, is he a writer, a librarian or something else?

"The second batch, how many forces?"

"Yes. The Su Hao you saw before was actually the first batch of people to enter the ancient city. Unfortunately, he only took a piece of rejuvenating incense of insignificant value, and died here. If only he could have walked out decades ago......"

Zhu Beichen was immersed in thinking and didn't answer, the fat man turned around, and there were too many complicated secrets hidden under his cold face. This night, I think he will tell himself a lot of facts that he doesn't know, what is his intention.

At the beginning of the 19th century, as the policy of seclusion was further broken by foreign powers, cultural ideas from all over the world poured in.

At that time, there was a traitor in the Jiang family, who had secrets of ancient books, and fled overseas with the secrets that the family had guarded for thousands of years, and the rumors of ancient books were obtained by relevant foreign organizations. The secret that belonged to the family is no longer a secret, and the infiltration of foreign organizations for centuries has been tracking the whereabouts of this book.

"Su Haomingli's identity is an explorer, in fact, during the Republic of China, he was hired by a foreign power to secretly search for the location of the ancient city buried in the sand. Otherwise, you think that with his personal ability, even if he reaches the sky, it is impossible to come here. He has a lot of financial and material support behind him, so I say he is the first group of representatives of the organization to enter here. It's a pity that he himself died here, and he couldn't get the news out. The fat man said.
