Professor Luo felt that he was really a little old, and he was tired of many things, and maybe he should retire when he found the answers to all this.

Yes, aren't there young people like Louie! Professor Luo thought with his eyes half-closed.

"Mr. Professor, we are almost there, just walk another 10 miles through this valley to the nearest town, and then we can book a plane ticket back." Louis said as he looked at the map from the co-pilot's seat.

"Well, it's already night, I'll camp here today, and I'll leave tomorrow at dawn, it's more dangerous to cross the river at night." Professor Luo looked up at the full moon in the sky and said.

The group stopped. Professor Luo and Louis were the initiators of the operation, and the rest were mostly locals. Among them, two guides and two drivers are experienced in taking tourists and expeditions up the mountain. They have been working with Professor Luo for a long time and are familiar with each other. The remaining six workers were hired local farmers. Of the dozen or so men, two were left to take care of the camp, and the rest went to the neighborhood to collect firewood and start boiling water for cooking. The two guides and Professor Luo went to the tent where the haode had just been set up to check the map. "Mr. Luo, we went relatively smoothly this time. We come to this area a lot, there are no people living there, but there are wild animals at night. You need to send two people to keep watch at night, so there should be no problem. One of the shorter guides said.

"Well, it's better to be careful, I heard that this area is a little unpeaceful, it seems to be a curse of some ancient legends, although we haven't encountered it, but it's better to be careful." The other, taller guide, chimed in.

"You're right, everyone should be careful tonight. We will leave tomorrow morning at dawn. Professor Luo pushed his glasses and said. The other two guides nodded and left the tent. Professor Luo looked at his watch and got into his sleeping bag, he was so tired that he quickly fell asleep.

In the middle of the night. The heat in the rainforest is unbearable, and there are many mosquitoes, so many outsiders will be very uncomfortable when they come here. Locals have long lived with this environment and have long had their own set of mosquito repellent methods. They dried other plants with special mosquito repellent effects and lit them at night to light the smoke released when the plants burned just had the effect of repelling mosquitoes, and the effect was similar to that of mosquito coils sold outside. As the locals are accustomed to it, and the drivers, guides, and workers who have been on the road for a day are falling asleep one after another.

Louis had been here for a while, but it was difficult for him to adapt to the environment. In the middle of the night, he couldn't sleep because of the stuffiness, he got up alone, looked at the two workers who were on guard in the distance, and suddenly felt unbearable pain all over his body.

"Damn, you have to take a hot shower when you go back." Louis muttered to himself. He rubbed his shoulders, looked at the bonfire lit not far away, and slowly began to sort out the harvest of the past few days with his thoughts. Professor Law was indeed a respectable elder and a good friend, and Louis felt that it was a blessing to be able to work with him. Even if you quit your job at the university because of this, it is enough to be able to be with like-minded friends and strive for a common dream. Thinking of this, Louis couldn't help but smile. The professor and I have finally made a huge breakthrough now, and if the discoveries of the past few days were to be made public, it would definitely cause a shock in the academic community. Much of the information about the Luku is still a mystery, but at least it is now confirmed that they did appear in the long course of history. When I go back and do further research on the artifacts found now, I believe there will be more discoveries.

Louis suddenly felt the need to look at the amber stone found today. Although this stone is inconspicuous in the discovery of the past few days, Professor Luo feels that it is unusual, and it must not be wrong. Although science is based on facts, sometimes scholars need a certain amount of insight and intuition, but maybe there is some kind of secret hidden in that amber stone.

Thinking of this, Louie sat up slightly, unzipped the travel bag that he had been carrying on his back, and carefully took the amber stone found in the cave during the day in his hand and carefully examined it. By the moonlight, the amber stone slowly emitted an eerie glow. It was a gentle orange-yellow glow that emanated from the inside of the stone, illuminating the lonely heart of a single traveler like a lamp in the night. But in this silent night, its light seemed to have another meaning, and the orange-yellow light that should have brought warmth was biting cold in the hand at this time. Now this amber stone gives people a feeling that is the opposite of the sultry environment of this rainforest. Louis felt that he was holding a foreign object sealed by a 10,000-year-old glacier, and the cold air was invading his body and eating away at his soul. Louis was shocked and hurriedly threw the stone in his hand on the ground. Strange to say, the light disappeared the moment the stone came out of his hand. Louis was stunned, his eyes fixed on the amberstone. What the hell is this? What if just ordinary artifacts weishenme would glow? The light was clearly not a reflection of a moonlit night, but from the inside of the stone. Amber shouldn't be able to glow, so what is it? Could it be the metal wrapped inside? But metal can't be a light source! If it was because of his touch that the stone glowed, then what about the fact that it didn't glow when Professor Luo held the stone in the cave? Louis clearly couldn't understand what had just happened. A series of question marks made his brain spin rapidly for more than a minute.

Just as Louis was puzzled, a dark cloud quietly shrouded the moonlight. The only thing left in the camp was the campfire that could be lit, and the only remaining flame crackled as if it were enchanted, as if it would be extinguished at any moment.

"What sound? Who? Someone! The worker standing guard in the distance suddenly shouted. The cry seemed so abrupt in the silence of the night that all those who were asleep were awakened by the shout and got up. At that moment, there was a loud noise in the woods next to the camp.

"Ahh After a scream, the sentry worker who had just shouted for someone fell to the ground, and a long feathered arrow was stuck in his chest. Dozens of arrows whizzed out of the woods. The whole camp was in a panic, and people dodged the flying arrows. However, because it happened so suddenly, a few people were still shot. The others ignored their wounded companions and hurried to the river with their backs to the woods. But there was nothing to shelter the river except gravel. At this time, the campfire in the camp was extinguished for unknown reasons, and the surroundings were suddenly pitch black. Most of the people were left in the camp with their luggage and there was no way to get their flashlights. Along with the fear of darkness, another wave of feathered arrows was fired. More and more feathered arrows flew, and more and more people fell. A few people were hit by the vital point and died on the spot.

Professor Luo was still in the tent when he panicked. Due to his advanced age and the fatigue of the past few days, he did not react in time, and subconsciously shouted Louis's name when he figured out what was happening outside.

At this time, Louie heard the professor's shout and knew that he had not encountered an accident, but because the visibility around him was too low, Louie could not determine the specific location of Professor Luo at all, and the attack of the feather arrows did not stop, and now if he returned to the camp to save Professor Luo, it was obviously not a wise move, but if he did not save it, then under such a dense attack of feather arrows, Professor Luo would definitely die. Once Professor Luo is dead, then all these years of research will be in vain, and Professor Luo must be rescued at all costs.

Thinking of this, Louis no longer hesitated, he quickly leaned down, crawled slowly and slowly moved in the direction of the camp. The raindrops of feathered arrows sank deep into the ground around Louis and continued to increase in number, and if any of them hit Louie, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Louis was struggling to crawl forward while shouting the professor's name. This is very dangerous, because the attacker will tell Louie's location by the sound of his shouts, so that the feathered arrows will definitely focus on Louie's side. Louis himself knew this, but he couldn't help it, because he could only contact Professor Luo through such a shout now.

"Where are you, Mr. Professor?" Louis shouted as he crawled. Sure enough, as soon as the words were shouted like rain of arrows, Professor Luo had already understood what was going on, and he also shouted Louie's name loudly: "My dear Louie, I haven't moved, I'm still here in the tent!" ”

Louis had moved to the nearest tent on the edge of the camp. He knew that the tents in the camp were arranged in a crescent pattern. In front of his current position was an open space enclosed by a tent in the camp, and Professor Luo's tent was opposite his position, just in the middle of the clearing. He chanted Professor Law's name again, and this time he could already tell the exact location of the professor based on the response. Louis told the professor not to move, and to come over at once. However, at this moment, the mysterious man on the opposite side also heard his shout, and a large wave of feathered arrows shot towards the open space on this side, apparently trying to stop Louie's rescue operation.

At this moment, Louie suddenly realized that he still had two flares on his body that emitted signals. That's right! These attackers can be deflected with flares. However, this method can only buy a few seconds, and the attacker will quickly recover and continue to attack Professor Luo and his side. Louis thought about it carefully, and now there is no other way but this trick, so he has to resign himself to fate! It was too late, and Louie quickly unhooked the flare hanging from his waist and fired one in the opposite direction from where Professor Luo was. Suddenly, the surroundings, which were as black as ink, were illuminated. Sure enough, the feathered arrows flew towards the illuminated place like moths to fire. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Louis rushed over and picked up Professor Luo and ran to the river.

At this moment, the sneak attackers who were attracted by the flares suddenly realized that they had been fooled, and quickly adjusted the direction of their attacks, and the arrows rained down on Louie's side again.
