Chapter 231: Traded Goods
PS: PS: Codeword code to sleep. Ask for comfort.
"Mr. Zhang, have you ever seen that piece of iron?" I didn't expect that what I was waiting for was Ah San's question.
I nodded thoughtfully. I won't tell him all about it, but I can't hide something from my impulsive behavior, and I hope that through this conversation, I can build some trust between me and the Vietnamese. After all, the road below is unpredictable, and only by uniting can there be hope of survival, and only hope.
"Yes. I've seen a hexagonal piece of iron, the size of the one I painted. But it's not here, it's on a plane, and what I see is a picture of it, a one-to-one picture. ”
I narrowed my eyes slightly, as if I was lost in thought. I'm thinking about what to say or how to say it. The best thing is that I can convince him that what I'm saying is true and that he doesn't know much. Of course, this is indeed the case, but it is difficult for him to believe it.
"Judging from the photo, there should be some ornamentation on that piece of iron. But as you can imagine, it's very difficult to distinguish the intricate ornaments from the photo, and the environment in which I look at this photo is very poor, I can only see some ornamentation on it, and I can't tell what the specific ornamentation is.
When you mention the hexagonal iron, and it is also ornamented, I naturally think of the pictures I have seen. I was forced to leave the place where I used to work because of this photo and some unpleasant things that happened afterward, and it hit me hard and I can't forget it. So I overreacted.
However, I can't imagine that the two pieces of iron you and I are talking about will be the same thing. It should be a coincidence. I saw the picture of that piece of iron ten years ago. I don't know when this picture was taken, it can only be much earlier.
And when did you get this iron message? It won't be more than two years. Since the Europeans have information that the iron is here, from the analysis of time, it is very likely that the two pieces of iron are not the same thing, of course, this needs to be confirmed. ”
At this point, I let go of my squinted eyes and made a decisive expression.
Ah San was obviously also observing me, and when he saw my expression, his expression instantly became wonderful. Finally, it ended with a mournful expression. Apparently my last sentence made him feel bad.
"Mr. Zhang. Do you think we have what we can prove? If we can go back alive, we all have to look at God's face, how can we do anything else. I'm your man, you're going to take me back. I don't want to die here. ”
My expression was as cold as ever. In fact, my heart has also begun to change, and my heart has not been so firm since entering this valley.
This valley initially struck me as terrifying and weird. And I couldn't avoid it and wanted to leave it. But I heard Ah San say it. I came here to find that hexagonal piece of iron. My thoughts changed immediately, I didn't know and couldn't imagine how this place would be connected to Lop Nur, but the piece of iron had connected them.
I know. And only I know that the piece of iron that the Vietnamese are talking about is the same thing as the piece of iron that I have seen in the photo. At least something of the same kind.
It's not some bullshit inspiration, ancient tombs, hexagonal iron, these two words can string this thing together. This piece of iron is a miracle from ancient times.
I don't think I'll be able to find that hexagonal piece of iron in this valley, but I'm sure there must be some connection to Lop Nur here, and I'm going to find it. But our present situation is not suitable for taking risks, especially since we have a seriously wounded man.
Find a way out, let some people leave, and I continue to stay and look for clues. Maybe Jack will stay too, I decided to let him make up his own mind, it's too dangerous, I don't want to make up my mind for him, I'm not ready to be God.
As for the fat man, I decided not to tell him. Let him take care of Xiao Ting, if this girl knows the truth of the matter, she will follow her alive and dead, this is purely to cause trouble for herself. I quickly made plans for this.
"Do you believe in God?" I teased the Vietnamese.
"Jack taught us, he made us pray to God."
I held back a laugh. I didn't expect this to be an amateur missionary.
"Of course we have to find a way to get out, this is the most important and only task at the moment, you don't have to worry, getting out alive is the most urgent thing, there is no one. Talking about the situation of the Europeans, I think you should know about it. ”
"I know that. This European consortium has a government background and has had several arms deals with us, especially during the civil war a few years ago, and they have made a fortune. However, some high-precision weapons are not easy to deal with now, and they often have conditions attached, such as our actions this time, which are the conditions attached to the arms transaction.
Their headquarters seems to be in Switzerland, I haven't been there, and I heard what Ah Xiang said. We were in contact with them in Bangkok, they have a branch in Bangkok, and I accompanied Brother Tai there. But I don't understand what they said, what Brother Tai talked to them, I only understood their last sentence, which was spoken in English, and the previous words were not said in English, otherwise I could understand some. ”
There are several official languages in Switzerland, such as German and French, but absolutely no English. It seems that they don't use English to communicate, and they also have the intention of guarding against Ah San. Then this good at eavesdropping on other people's conversations, naturally only has to be in a hurry.
"They should have talked about this operation when they were negotiating, did the Europeans provide detailed maps? How can you find this place without a map? ”
"There should be, but they didn't show it in front of me, and I haven't seen it. But Ah Xiang knew that after we were separated, that is, after you went to look for Buazon, Ah Xiang took me in the direction of the center of this valley. He said that the tomb should be in the center of the valley. ”
I had a rough calculation of the direction we were heading, and at first we were almost headed towards the center of the valley, but then the events were so dense that we were so exhausted that we lost our sense of direction altogether. I can only be sure that we must be in the deepest recesses of this valley, and whether we are in the center or not is only God knows.
"Now I want to ask you the most important question, is there anything consistent with the information you know about our current environment or the places we have passed, even if it is only a little."
Ah San shook his head with a sad face. "I haven't seen the map, and I don't know what the tomb and its surroundings are like, so I can't really tell."
My face became even more gloomy from depression. I felt my surroundings chill under my cold expression. Of course, Ah San felt it more obviously.
As if to change this oppressive atmosphere, the Vietnamese suddenly said, "I know what Xiao Guolin wants." (To be continued......)
