Chapter Eighty-Six: Jones

This is not a rock wall, but a huge rolling stone!

The rolling stone blocked the passage and turned it into a Jedi, and most likely buried a "foreign friend" named Alexander Alejones beneath it.

If it is an ordinary person, although it is regrettable in the face of this scene, it can only retreat, or go back and launch a large group of men to fight again in Japan.

But Li Heng doesn't need to.

Isn't it just a stone? What you did when you came, how do you do it now.

Click-click-click-

The stones rubbed violently, and the crossing had been blocked for an unknown number of years, and was once again pried by brute force, making a bone-cracking sound like a click.

Li Heng used half of his body as a supporting pry point, his waist and shoulders worked together, and the two big arms output huge kinetic energy like the hydraulic cylinders of a crane, constantly forcing the displacement of the big stone that blocked the cave.

Of course, he didn't use his dead force, but used the form of the pit itself as a lever moment to exert force.

Boom - boom -

As a large amount of rubble rolled down, a gap emerged from the sealed passage and grew larger, and what was pressing under the stone was slowly revealed.

When Li Heng pushed the rolling stone to reveal a space that could pass through people, he stopped.

Then he saw this sleeping "foreign friend" clearly.

At the moment, he is half glued to the rolling stones, half weathered in the tunnel.

It's very balanced, and this is probably the legendary five-five open.

Li Heng began to check the person's relics, and although many of them were broken under the rolling stones, some were still scattered and preserved.

These include an aluminum flashlight with a dead battery, thin steel ropes, a waterproof trench coat, an American sapper pickaxe, and even a small gas mask and a very old mechanical Kodak camera.

It can be seen that this person is definitely a professional, and as an explorer, he is far more professional than a temporary guy like Li Heng.

Sadly, he died, in a simple but deadly trap.

Li Heng rummaged through the rest of his things, looking for items that might still be useful, and finally found that he was only interested in the camera.

It's not the camera itself, it's the film in the camera.

This mechanical Kodak camera is so old that if nothing else, Li Heng guesses that this thing is likely to be older than his grandfather, if his grandfather is still alive.

"The direction he entered this tunnel is different from mine, he came from the opposite side, so the half that was not crushed under the stone was on the opposite side of the rolling stone, which means that he did not enter this underground from the White Lotus Sect cave where I came."

"That's right, the White Lotus Sect cave I entered has long been sealed with rocks, and there is no trace of it being opened."

"And it is speculated that this person should have come here after the rat tide occurred, otherwise if the rolling stones seal the passage, the rat swarm will not be able to pass, and it will be impossible to wreak havoc in the Shentai House."

Li Heng narrowed his eyes, and quickly built a timeline in his mind to connect all this information, although there were still many links that were blank, but a general outline was forming in his mind.

Then he took out the metal nameplate from before and looked at it in his hand, looked at the English name on it, and looked at his friend who was half sleeping on the ground and half glued to the stone.

Alec Alexander Aleksandr...... Arle Jones ...... Jones...... It can't be him, right? ”

A thought crossed his mind.

Friends who like to watch movies may know that there was a suspenseful adventure movie that swept the world in the eighties, "Raiders of the Lost Ark" directed by Hollywood director Spielberg.

The film, which tells the curious story of archaeologist and adventurer Indiana Jones' quest to unearth treasure in ancient ruins around the world, has been released to critical acclaim and has been filmed in five films over the next two decades, becoming the cornerstone of the genre.

The image of Indiana Jones has since spread around the world.

Of course, this movie character is fictional, but when he was created, it was also based on real characters from history.

It is rumored that one of them is the Harvard scholar Langdon Warner, who also has a better known name - the Dunhuang Thief!

At that time, when the land of China was divided and divided, this person was supported by a warlord to go to Dunhuang for archaeological excavations, nominally excavating but in fact stealing and destroying a large number of ancient cultural relics, and those national treasures are still scattered overseas and exhibited in museums in other countries.

Of course, this is not too much to extend, back to the topic, the characters in the movie are sometimes not taken from a single historical figure, and the creators will most of the time use multiple archetypes.

Just as Indiana Jones didn't just borrow from Warner, there was another person who was the real archetype.

Unlike Warner Harvard's origins, the man was a civilian adventurer active during World War II, more often acting in a private capacity, and is said to have participated in the Armenican Army's accompanying press corps, and then the military traveled around the world's ancient civilizations and explored the ancient places.

This person's surname is Ale Jones, the specific name of the person is unknown, compared to Warner's lack of fame in the orthodox archaeological community, more are some folk rumors.

Legend has it that he once found a pyramid buried deep in the desert in Africa that no one had ever found, and according to his description, it was a more majestic structure than the pyramid of Giza, but it has not been found so far, and it is mostly just a rumor.

It is also said that he later arrived in Huaxia and even found a long-lost section of the Great Wall ruins, and the beacon tower of the ancient Great Wall was still tied to a bloody horse, and the BMW had a wooden card hanging around the neck of the Ming Dynasty during the Zhengde period, which means that it was a horse that had lived for 500 years!

It is even rumored that he found Leonardo da Vinci's laboratory built underground in the city of Rome, which contained an unfinished machine, and no one knew what it was used for at the time, until hundreds of years later, when humans invented the internal combustion engine, and it was discovered that the structure of that machine was the prototype of the single-stroke internal combustion engine.

There are also legends about his adventures in Southeast Asia, the ancient Futu stupa from the Mauryan era, the sound of bells still ringing to this day, and the golden bones found in Luzon from thousands of years ago...... In short, it's just how strange it is.

However, it is widely recognized in the academic community that this person does have rich experience in exploration, but most of the rumors are made up, and basically belong to the kind of stall literature, which is made up blindly in order to increase his popularity, without real evidence.

But what the film and television industry wants is a gimmick, how bizarre and good, absorbing and changing these unbelievable experiences has become the life story of Indiana Jones, a classic character.

As for the fate of Ale Jones himself, no one knows except that he announced a trip to Asia many years ago and created a big gimmick, claiming that he would bring the world a miracle of "subversive cognition".

But nearly a century has passed since this so-called "miracle", and no one knows what it is, and no one cares about it today.

Li Heng knew that perhaps this miracle would never appear in front of the world.

For the master of this miracle is now divided before him.
