Looking at Cao Mingzhe's mysterious expression, the figure of Jack and the information he had revealed to me appeared in front of my eyes.

At the beginning, in the underground cave of the Hakka people, when Jack and I exchanged information, Jack had to think carefully about every word before saying it, which can be called a cherished word. It turns out that this information is so precious, even me

Neither the military nor the Academy of Sciences has yet to master. Looks like I'm going to have to take a look at what he's said and see if I can learn anything from it.

"I don't think you should contact the scientists in the future, I originally wanted you to get closer to them and ease the tension within the working group, but I didn't expect you to poke out a bigger basket. Good

If you don't divulge more information, otherwise, even if this expedition is successfully completed, you may be greeted by prison when you return. ”

"You are more optimistic than me, I thought that the military would directly cancel my qualification to go to Lop Nur, and I was ready to squat in a small black house."

"No, it won't. Even if you make a bigger mistake, you'll be on the list of going to Lop Nur. This is the premise of my team, and this has been agreed with the military. ”

"Lao Cao, why do you want me to go? Today, you have to give me an explanation, I will make my position clear now, and if there is no reasonable explanation, I will withdraw from this test now

Reconnaissance team. Don't say that you can't enter the gate of eternal life without me, you have the key, and I am not indispensable. ”

"You are." Cao Mingzhe sighed. "You think they're going to give me the keys? There have been two groups of people, each time it is worse than the other, a few of us have come out alive, and Lao Xiao and them are gone

Return, do you think the military and the Academy of Sciences will let me take that piece of iron down? ”

"The piece in your office"

"That's true, but that piece of iron can't leave my office. The task force's work of defending is not only for those on the outside, but also on the inside, especially the man who carries the piece of iron, which is me. ”

"Then the iron you brought to the Hakka cottage is fake?"

"Is there a difference? Give him a block really he recognizes? ”

"Lao Cao, you can really trick people, take a fake and turn the Hakka people around. Aren't you afraid that the Hakka people will find you desperate? Now I also bring the holy Maiden of the Hakka people to work for you. It doesn't make sense. ”

"Xiao Zhang, you look down on me too much, am I that kind of person?"

I nodded earnestly. "I didn't know you before, but now I do. You still tricked me, and I let you cheat. ”

Cao Mingzhe's old face was slightly embarrassed. "Haven't I worked yet? My deal with the Hakka people is not to give them that piece of iron, but to let them use it once. What a trick for them! Now of their eternal life

The Gate has no value, and leading the few remaining Awakened in their stockade into the Eternal Gate beneath Lop Nur to de-energize is a new deal between us, and a compensation for the unfinished deal.

I didn't cheat them, the new deal was recognized by the Hakka people, which is a win-win situation. ”

"If we fail this time, that piece of iron is their last hope. Whether it is the military or the Academy of Sciences, the investigation of the Lop Nur underground will not stop, they will send more people and more

Powerful armed forces, in the end, must find out the secrets of Lop Nur underground no matter what. Xiao Zhang. This time we need to do everything we can to succeed, at least temporarily. And some people can come out alive. ”

I nodded. In fact, I was trembling all over, and the frequency of my nodding was like a chicken pecking rice, and I was uncontrollable. It's so cold, I'm almost frozen when I stand here and talk for a long time.

"Lao Cao, if you stand for a while, it's not a matter of whether you can come out alive or not, you will freeze to death."

Cao Mingzhe looked at me in surprise and said, "Is it cold?" All right. Then you go back first, and I'll quickly contact the military and the Academy of Sciences. Don't give me this kind of butt wiping in the future. ”

After Cao Mingzhe said this, he turned around and left. I'm going to drive back to the hotel and follow him back, but I can't do it as well. I trembled when I walked. That's when I remembered

, Cao Mingzhe has a problem with his perception nerves, and he will not feel cold if he is frozen.

"Who was it that protected me from the military back then?" I shouted behind Cao Mingzhe.

Cao Mingzhe glanced back at me. "Captain Zhou, you old men of JD. Others don't have that energy and face. ”

After speaking, Cao Mingzhe turned out of the walking path and left my sight.

I was stunned for a moment and trotted back to the hotel lobby. After warming up in the hall for a while, I felt alive before driving back to the shop.

I didn't expect that the person who fished me out was Captain Zhou. Among the captains of the archaeological team back then, I was the least familiar with him, and it was better to be close to Song Guilong. But I know it was he who took me from the southwest to archaeology

The scene was transferred to Lop Nur. Maybe that's why I've always been resistant to him.

But at the moment, my cranial nerves are as stiff as my body, and my mind is very messy when I think about things, and I can't concentrate on one thing.

I was in my room, lying on the radiator like a gecko, replenishing the heat to my stiff body. It took a long time to take back control of his body from the cold.

It's dark early in winter, the lights are on the street, and the Yellow Sea hasn't come back yet. I didn't turn on the lights, just got into the bed and continued to keep warm.

As soon as I got under the covers, my phone rang. The phone is on the table, quite far from the bed, if the ringing is not so noisy, I will put up with it, at this time it is not important to maintain body temperature. But my damn phone rings

The sound can kill people, and after weighing it, staying alive is more important than maintaining body temperature, I jumped up and grabbed the phone and got into the bed.

It's another unfamiliar number, and it's an international call. I took a deep breath and slid down the touchscreen.

"Zhang, I'm Jack."

"Where the are you! That's when I called. ”

"I'm still in the hospital and the surgery was a success. It is estimated that in a few months, it will be able to go to the ground. How are you? ”

"Not good. I was so unlucky that I got back and had a fight with someone and lay in bed for days. It almost didn't break people's face. ”

"Huh." I heard Jack laugh happily. "I heard that, but the news I heard was the opposite, it should be that you abolished the other party, it is said that the person is still lying in the hospital bed. sheet

You're getting stronger. ”

"I'm not weak in the first place, otherwise how could I take you out."

"Zhang, thank you."

"Are you going to call me about that? Well, I accept your gratitude, and at the same time, I want to tell you that you owe me my life. ”

"Zhang" Although I was in the joy and excitement of being reunited after a long absence, I could still hear that Jack's voice suddenly became dull and uneasy. "Don't do that sand table model." (To be continued......)
