Chapter 145: It's Too Late
Lulu said, "No, I need someone I can trust to be at the base. After all, our plan for a solid reign has not yet begun. We're in constant contact, and you'll just be able to keep an eye on me all the time. ”
While the two were talking, the group had arrived at the sea west of Shenxue Island and hovered.
From one of the transport planes, more than 100 reconnaissance planes disguised as small birds or flying insects were released, and the troops flew towards Shenxue Island in two directions.
Under another large transport plane, a long fuel pipe protruded, and other planes took turns flying over to refuel.
More than an hour later, the reconnaissance group came with the news that no trace of David had been found in the cave behind the Great Waterfall on the east side of Shenxue Island, about six kilometers from the mouth of the sea, and in the huge sinkhole.
Directly above the center of the huge "sinkhole" with a diameter of five or six kilometers, a dark gray business jet, a fighter plane, and a transport plane all turned their respective jets downward, and with a loud roar, they slowly descended to the bottom of the sinkhole.
Seven other fighter jets and nine transport planes landed at the foot of the massive volcano.
After descending for more than a dozen kilometers, the three planes finally stopped one after another on the side of the bottom of the sinkhole.
After the rest of the crew got off the plane and searched, Lulu put on her helmet and stepped out of the cabin, looking up at the sky that looked like a mirror floating overhead.
Looking down, in the center of the bottom of the sinkhole, in front of her, was an oval-shaped hot spring pool about a kilometer long and half a kilometer wide, steaming at all.
The plane landed at one end of the long axis of the oval hot spring, and at the bottom of the wall not far away, there were several piles of small hills of various shiny gems, as well as piles of black meteorites of various sizes.
Lulu was not very interested in these things, because the Buddha statue on the left side of the short axis of the oval hot spring was the only reason she had come to the sinkhole.
Surrounded by a group of officers and soldiers, Lulu walked to the Buddha statue.
I saw that this Buddha statue with a dark yellow body together with the pedestal was more than one meter high, more than three meters wide and more than two meters deep. On the pedestal, sitting cross-legged is a statue of a human being on earth with curly hair and big ears, more than five meters tall, except for wearing a modern one-piece bodysuit and a pair of thin socks on his feet, his eyebrows, eyes, sitting posture, and gestures are no different from most of the Buddha statues on the earth.
At the same time, its rectangular base is carved with various patterns that are either simple and clear, or very detailed.
On the front of the pedestal, there is a simple drawing of dots and lines, and on the left side of the drawing, a sketch of the constellation Centauri is drawn.
This drawing of a centaur is specially marked with Proxima b on the edge of Proxima Centauri.
A thin line is drawn from Proxima Centauri B, which extends to the Earth in the solar system drawn to the right of the base.
On the left side of the pedestal, cannon-like things are drawn, and a long pointed cannonball is fired. A group of humans wave near the cannon.
On the right side of the pedestal, Shakyamuni in a one-piece garment is depicted preaching to a group of people dressed in similar clothes.
Next, Lulu walked to the back of the Buddha statue with a very narrow gap between the inner wall of the sinkhole, and saw that on the pedestal on this side, there were dense and neat unknown hieroglyphs written, and after roughly counting the number of horizontal and vertical words and multiplying them, there were more than 5,000 words.
Martin 3D projection, who had been following Lulu, asked, "Senior sister, do you know in Muma's memory, what is the origin of this Buddha statue?" ”
Lulu said, "This thing was found by the Great Black Woo Enkitozu at the bottom of the sea nearby more than 400 years ago. ”
Martin said: "More than 400 years ago, we humans did not have the ability to go to heaven, so my sister's speculation may be true, and we earth humans may really come from this planet." ”
Lulu said: "In the future, we will strengthen the archaeological work and arrange special personnel to study the relationship between this Buddha statue and the earth, and even the relationship between Proxima Centauri and the earth." Next, we went on a tour of David's smelter. ”
After wrapping the Buddha statue tightly in canvas, four camouflage mechanical dogs slowly lifted it onto the transport plane.
Next, all the people who were looking around in the sinkhole boarded the plane, and the three planes, along with the other sixteen planes parked at the foot of the mountain, flew to the brown rocky beach on the edge of the waterfall on the east coast of Shenxue Island, each looking for a suitable place to land.
At the bottom of the waterfall, about 100 meters high and 50 meters wide, led by five large dogs, Lulu entered the culvert entrance on the right, surrounded by a group of soldiers and Martin projections.
Walking diagonally upwards along the low stairs in the culvert, we came to this large karst cave with a depth of more than 100 meters, an opening of more than 10 meters from the water surface of the waterhole, a width of 50 meters, and an inner height of 50 meters.
I saw that there was a wooden waterwheel more than ten meters high built at the bottom of the cave on the inside of the waterfall, but at this time, the waterwheel was pulled into the cave through the axle and did not touch the water flow outside.
Near the waterwheel, there is also a clay furnace more than ten meters high with a huge blower.
In addition, there is a ruggedly constructed generator next to the waterwheel, on which two leads wrapped in black rubber extend deep into the cave.
Circumventing several stone pillars with a diameter of more than one meter to reach the depths of the cave, Lulu saw through the night vision devices built into her helmet that there were a total of eight wooden stakes built into the house.
Following the wires, I pushed the door open and entered the third room, where I saw a stove with a chimney and several wooden tables.
On one of the tables was a motor of equally rough shape, as well as some cutting and grinding tools, unfinished parts of the firearm.
On the other tables, there were glassware and bottles and jars.
Lulu examined the contents of the house, walked over to the stove and crouched down, and said, "You see, there are still some charcoal fires, which means that he has just left. ”
Martin said: "I just asked the computer to search the shooting records of all the satellites, and the most recent satellite passed over Shenxue Island more than five hours ago, so there is nothing to be gained. ”
Lulu said, "We were still late, Zoya flew back and told David that after Tima fell into our hands, he must have guessed that we would extract Muma's memories so that we could know where he was hiding, so he should have ridden Zoya out of Cave Island by now." ”
"Unfortunately, we still don't have enough satellites to monitor every corner of the planet at all times," Martin said. ”
Lulu said: "David should not know that we have increased the density of the reconnaissance satellite network now, and even if he did, he would not be able to analyze the trajectory of all the satellites, so let the computer continue to be closely connected with the satellite network, and report to me as soon as David's traces are found." ”
