Hu Bayi was silent for a while, and then told his story again. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

That year, a squad of fighters, along with several engineers and geologists, was ordered to carry out a highly classified mission into the deepest part of the Kunlun Glacier, only to have an accident on the way.

An engineer from Beijing stumbled and fell down the glacier, and they found his crumbling body in an oasis beneath the glacier. In grief, they had no choice but to bury the engineer's body on the spot, but in the process of digging up the soil, a large blue fireball, the size of a basketball, suddenly flew out, circled twice in mid-air, and rushed into the crowd at once, and the soldiers could only dodge in a hurry.

The fireball fell to the ground, the blue flame gradually extinguished, Hu Bayi could see clearly, it turned out that this fireball was the strange ladybug he had seen before, that is, the Dapu ghost worm that Xia Yang had just mentioned!

However, at that time, no one knew what kind of insect it was, and a warrior was curious to grab the insect and look at it, but the moment his fingers came into contact with the ladybug, it was instantly ignited by a blue flame, and in an instant, the male flames engulfed his whole body, and his skin was instantly covered with a layer of large blisters, and then he was burned again, and fell to the ground in pain and twisted and struggled, and the miserable cry resounded throughout the valley.

This scene of living people being burned by fire was too cruel, and several young soldiers subconsciously opened fire, but it led to more Dapu ghost insects, which turned into blue fireballs and rushed towards them. Enraged, they ran and shot at the same time, but it caused an avalanche. Tens of thousands of tons of snow hanging over the big glaciers, like a white tsunami, poured towards them and completely engulfed them......

Hu Bayi said in a deep voice: "When I woke up, I was already lying in the army's hospital, and except for me, all my comrades-in-arms ......."

He didn't go on, but everyone could tell that his comrades-in-arms had probably all died in the avalanche.

Speaking of this, Hu Bayi suddenly raised his voice: "I don't understand, why do you want to change the route to Kunlun Glacier?"

"Here's the thing. Professor Chen took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose and explained, under the gaze of several people: "The avalanche was actually caused by a low-level earthquake, not because you fired a gun. I saw it in an internal document, which was later confirmed by the State Geological Administration. The earthquake also shook a crack in the eastern foot of the Kunlun Glacier. ”

"Then does this have anything to do with us going to find the Exquisite Ancient City?" Hu Bayi didn't understand.

"A few years ago, there was a Sino-foreign joint expedition to Xinjiang, led by an old friend of mine, who was obsessed with the culture of the Western Regions. Professor Chen glanced at Shirley Yang as he spoke, and his tone was very embarrassed: "But on the way to the desert to find the exquisite ancient city, this expedition team didn't know why it changed its route and went to the Kunlun Glacier, and then disappeared, and no one came back."

"How can you be sure that they have disappeared there?" asked the fat man.

Professor Chen said: "The last distress signal was sent from the eastern foot of the Kunlun Glacier, so we analyzed that their disappearance should be related to the crack that was shaken out." ”

"Then let's go to that crack and what are we looking for?"

"A notebook. Professor Chen glanced at Hu Bayi and Xia Yang, and said, "It is the diary of the British explorer, Mr. Walter, at the beginning of this century. In his diary, he recorded in detail how they found the Exquisite Ancient City step by step, which is very helpful for us to go to the desert to find the Exquisite Ancient City in the next step!"

"If I'm not mistaken, the leader of the expedition should be Miss Yang's father. At this time, Xia Yang suddenly spoke.

"That's right!" Shirley Yang didn't deny it, nor did he ask him how he guessed, nodded and said: "The reason why I want to go to the glacier is not only to find information, but also to continue to complete my father's unfinished road, I want to find out the reason why they went to Kunlun Glacier, and find out the secret of the exquisite ancient city." ”

Hu Bayi and Wang Fatzi looked abrupt, and finally figured out the reason why she wanted to change her route. Only Xia Yang knew that she was vague, and looked at her with a mysterious and unpredictable expression.

Shirley Yang didn't know why Xia Yang looked at him with such eyes, and he was a little weak-hearted, could it be that he knew something?

Professor Chen didn't notice Xia Yang's eyes, he just tried his best to convince Hu Bayi: "If we can find the exquisite ancient city and complete our archaeological research plan, many historical mysteries will be solved, and the study of the culture of the Western Regions will also usher in a new page." Comrade Xiaohu, this is a very rare opportunity. ”

Hu Bayi didn't speak, he was still hesitating in his heart. However, Wang Fatzi rolled his eyes, rubbed his hands, and said that if he wanted to go, then add some money, after all, this matter is very dangerous, and it has nothing to do with them.

Xia Yang couldn't help but roll his eyes, this fat man, saying such things at such a time, how could Hu Bayi be embarrassed? People thought that the reason why he didn't go was because of money.

Sure enough, Shirley Yang didn't play his cards according to common sense at all, and directly rejected the fat man and asked them to get off the train at the next stop.

Although Xia Yang didn't care about other people's opinions, he didn't want to be seen as a person who saw money, so he stood up and walked out of the carriage, leaving only one sentence: "I'll go with you." ”

"I'll go with you, too. Hu Bayi glanced at Wang Fatzi, also stood up, and followed behind Xia Yang.

"I said, what's the matter with you two?"

Both of them came out, how could Wang Fatzi stay inside alone, he hurriedly chased him out, and grabbed Hu Bayi at the junction of the carriage: "Old Hu, didn't you say that you won't go, why did you change your hexagram again, what do you think?"

Hu Bayi leaned in front of the car door and was silent for a moment before shaking his head and saying: "Listening to them just now made me realize that I thought that after so many years, I could face the pain and struggle of my comrades-in-arms, but it didn't work at all." ”

Hearing his words, Wang Fatzi finally understood his thoughts, and the person suddenly became heavy, and comforted: "Old Hu, you can live well, it is the happiest thing for them." ”

"I understand the truth, but I just feel sorry for them. Hu Bayi said with red eyes: "Each of them has a reason for absolute immortality, but the last survivor is me." My life was bought by many comrades-in-arms with their lives, but I don't even have the courage to go and see them now. I can't, so I feel like I should go!"

"You're supposed to go. Xia Yang stood aside and said appreciatively: "Only by facing your past can you liberate your soul." This is also the principle of getting up from where you fall, Lao Hu, I support you!"

Wang Fatzi exhaled, nodded emphatically and said, "I understand! Okay, you two say go, let's go." ”

Hu Bayi glanced at Xia Yang, looked at Wang Fatzi again, and said solemnly: "Fatty, listen to me, this matter has nothing to do with you, don't go." ”

"Old Hu, what do you mean?" Wang Fatzi was anxious when he heard this.

Hu Bayi: "I don't mean anything else, it's too dangerous, I can't pull you into this troubled water." ”

"You look down on people, don't you?" the fat man widened.

Hu Bayi shook his head: "Of course not! I know you're not afraid of anything, but I really can't take you with me." ”

"You and Brother Xia can go, but I can't go, right?" Wang Fatzi waved his hand and stopped Hu Bayi's persuasion: "Don't talk nonsense, it's all here, and we have to work together on how big things are." ”

Hearing him say this, Hu Bayi couldn't help but look at Wang Fatzi with emotion, and didn't know what to say.

Wang Fatzi looked at him directly: "I'll tell you, Lao Hu." In the 70s, you became a soldier and left, do you know what I am most afraid of? I am afraid that when the Third World War begins, you go to the battlefield, and we will never see each other again. Especially in the years when we broke off contact with each other, I really couldn't stay in Niuxin Mountain! In '79, when you went to the front, I didn't say anything in the letter. It's not that I don't have nothing to say, I have a stomach full of things that I don't know how to say, I'm afraid that you won't be able to come back! You don't know, I'm so happy to know that you were driven back by the army! I'm as happy as your father!"

Listening to the fat man's words, Hu Bayi stopped talking, his eyes were red, and his heart was extremely moved.

Listening to Wang Fatzi's words, Xia Yang was also extremely emotional, he didn't expect that he, who has always loved money like his life, would have such a deep friendship with Hu Bayi. This kind of emotion is something that Xia Yang has never felt in his life, and he is extremely touched!

Perhaps, this is the real friendship.

After thinking about it, Xia Yang looked at the two thoughtfully, and said, "Lao Hu, let him go together." ”

"That's it! Brother Xia has spoken. ”

Wang Fatzi said seriously: "Old Hu, Chairman Mao and his old man said that fighting with the heavens and the earth is endlessly fun! The little Kunlun Glacier, what is it? If you want to throw me down, there is no way!"

Hu Bayi rubbed his reddened eyes, reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Fatty, you have less money just now!"

With that, the two looked at each other and smiled.
