XVI. 768 dead people

It was an expedition convoy, they were from Hami, Xinjiang to Ejinaqi, Inner Mongolia, fortunately I was hit by National Highway 312, but in the process of two days of coma, the fat man and I had already followed them to Jiayuguan.

In my hotel, I stood naked in front of the mirror and looked at my whole body as if my skin was about to molt, and I still had palpitations in my heart, although the adventure was only less than 1 day, but it gave me the biggest, the deepest memory, I licked my lips and a feeling of vomiting rushed up again, I hurriedly closed my eyes and didn't think so much.

The fat man has also contacted him, and soon we can return to the town of Horsehair Mountain, not why, because the people of Pangu finally dispatched, they walked into the Black Gobi with a large team of people and horses, camel food, and I was stunned for a while, "What clues did the people of Pangu find?" ”

I sat on the bed and got dressed silently, and asked the fat man, "Is there any news leaking?" ”

"Absolutely impossible. We haven't figured out the ins and outs of this matter, how did the people of Pangu dare to enter the Gobi like this by virtue of our coming to Horsehair Mountain Town? The fat man said firmly, "I think Pangu is tricking us." ”

I shook my head, "I don't agree with your words, in fact, you also know that Pangu is not only starting to explore the Gobi Desert from now on, God knows what news they have got?" ”

"Then let's continue to wait, I will arrange for someone to follow them, but I can't lose the clues I have on hand here!" The fat man opened the curtains of the window and saw a pair of tanks slowly driving by on the street.

"What clues?"

"In the past few days when you have been sick to your stomach, I have asked some friends above Pangu, do you know how many people died in the Red Rock Mountain? According to the actual report of the KGB Expeditionary Force, 368 people were killed on the spot and 16 people were killed on the spot, making a total of 384 people. What can you think of with this data? ”

"Anything you can think of, there's a ghost." I sighed speechlessly, "Are you too sensitive?" ”

"Remember when I said I counted the coffins in the tomb? It was 768 people in total. 768 and 384 are multiples, right? ”

"That's right, but what does it matter?"

"Have you ever heard of the Pisces Jade Pendant?"

"I've heard of Amway."

“。” The fat man took a sip: "That's a mystery about the disappearance of Peng Jiamu, president of the Xinjiang branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences." Long before the Ten Years of Turmoil, probably between 1957 and 1962. Something happened in the northwest of our country, it is said that at that time Lop Nur discovered the ruins of an ancient city, some young people wanted to go to find some antiquities, and then I don't know what happened there, those young people died, crazy crazy. It is said that those crazy people look like ghosts. But it's not. The insane were so active that they all died of exhaustion, and an autopsy revealed an unknown toxin in their bodies and an unknown plant in their stomachs, which drove the survivors insane. These madmen have worn out their feet, which means they are unconscious. What is even more shocking is that they brought back some rubbings and fragments of some ancient ornaments, as well as a jade sickle, some investigation had already begun at that time, but it was not sufficient. Then the Cultural Revolution broke out, and the state administration was effectively paralyzed. The matter was put on hold. ”

Lop? It is located in the lowest part of the Tarim Basin, that is, in the Taklamakan Desert, and it seems that it may have something to do with Gumo, but here, what connection can it have with that side in this Black Gobi?

"After the end of the Cultural Revolution, the military first offered to continue the investigation (so the composition of the Pengamu comprehensive expedition team is actually very delicate, the main members are some people in the army, and there are many experts in many fields). Including private experts, you can guess who it is. But the biggest suspicion is the cause of the accident of those young people who went to search for antiquities before the Cultural Revolution. And an unknown plant was found in its stomach, and the military concluded that this accident was an unknown biochemical accident, in fact, it was to train special forces), so it was finally selected as the leader of Pengamu, and the main task of the trip to Lop Nur was to investigate the ruins of the ancient city, the source of the accident, and collect plant specimens. At this time, it was only a single investigation project, and the state had no plans to set up a special agency. But. Surprisingly, the results of the investigation were somewhat unbelievable, the ruins of the ancient city were found, and the accident happened again. Where did they go? What have you encountered? This was classified as a top-secret thing at the time, and when I went, it was a large group of people, but there were few people who came back. One of them was seriously injured, and the sudden disappearance of Comrade Peng Jiamu was just a single case, and the reason why it was valued was because there was also a mysterious plant specimen missing! ”

The ruins of an ancient city? What could it be, the relics related to the Pisces jade pendant could it be Gumo? I thought about it, but I still listened to the fat man.

Herders in Lop Nur have reported that the weather is abnormal and the surface environment changes significantly for a short period of time, which then returns to its original state. Although Pengamu's expedition had a serious accident, it also made a major discovery - they found an engineering facility that was largely intact (it is difficult to describe this facility), a large number of equipment in the facility, most of which had failed (or so far did not know how to use it), and the functions of individual equipment were identified, the most important of which was the Pisces jade pendant.

Why is it called Pisces Jade Pendant? Not because of the appearance, but because when the researchers first discovered its supernatural function in the laboratory, it was when they were experimenting with a fish, and the jade pendant suddenly activated, and an identical fish was copied! Why is Pengamu missing? It's not that this person can't be found, but two Pengamu have appeared! In this case, Pengamu can only be declared missing. This is just one possibility of Pengamu's disappearance, and there are countless rumors about the reason for his disappearance, the most likely of which is that he fainted and was buried by the wind and sand.

Of course, these are wild histories, but they are one of the targets that Pangu focuses on, which is extremely secret, and no one can tell which is true and which is false. But I have reason to believe that their achievements in this area for so many years are not in vain, and this time I think it is a matter of Pisces Jade Pendant when I come to the Black Gobi, you know? In Pangu, in fact, it is very difficult for everyone to have a view on every event, whether this opinion is reliable or not, as long as you have a place in the past, you can become a report, but this kind of report must be written a month, at that time there were many opinions about the Pisces jade pendant, I remember that at that time, a friend of mine said that the Pisces jade pendant is not just a jade or artifact, but a symbol of a large number of copies of human beings. ”

"So there's a lot more in this world that can turn people into replicants?" It's a bit nonsense, but I'm slowly getting used to it, isn't this kind of thing what Pangu has been pursuing? That's exactly what they did.

"Black Lama, let's talk about this person again!" The fat man closed the curtains, came up to me, and said, "Adjutant of the Black Lama, Zahaqin Belle! He was a knight of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, and during the assassination of the Black Lama, he was seen running away in different directions on two horses, which is why he was the only one who could escape from the chaos. ”

"Pisces Jade Pendant?"

"That's right." The fat man agreed, "My conjecture is so, but the question arises again? Why are there only two rumors that two Pengamu have been copied in the Pengamu incident? Is it just because he's a celebrity? I don't think so! And why didn't the Black Lama's manpower increase a lot when he arrived at Horsehair Mountain? Therefore, I think that the replication function of Pisces Jade Pendant will only work for some people. ”

"Otherwise, it would be too rebellious for one replicant to copy another? And in those war years, that thing was almost one of the most powerful weapons? ”

"Another reason, I think, is that replicants are not too controlled by humans, or even the replicants themselves will go berserk! For example, if a person's spirit is divided into two halves, isn't that schizophrenia? ”

"What we can think of as Pangu can also think of? And they will have more information than us, so they dare to act? But where are their goals? I asked. But then we can keep an eye on them, and my plan can be considered a success, right? ”

"Bunker Hill must be in Bunker Hill, they are definitely looking for traces of the Black Lama, trying to find his castle."

"Castle? Isn't the castle of the Black Lama all known? ”

"Another castle! The Black Lama has two bases, and the other castle is his real base. In 1923, the Black Lama suddenly disappeared, no one could tell his whereabouts, and his large number of men and horses and huge wealth also disappeared. Pangu's intelligence tells us that he was preparing the forces for a counter-offensive for his descendants, and that he had buried everything he had in that place. (To be continued......)
