Because there were so many question marks, I judged that Gu Qingcheng had subconsciously acknowledged my point of view, but wanted to find out the doubts and further confirm it.
"Tomorrow, everything will be revealed." Just as I am sure that He Jishang will not lie to me, I am even more sure that my point of view is 100% correct. The square-eyed warrior must be a modern earthling who traveled through time and space. Of course, in my memory,
There is no creature with square eyes. From humans to insects, from birds to fish, no similar cases can be found.
"Yes, tomorrow, all hope really lies in tomorrow."
In the next few hours, I sat at the desk and repeatedly observed the jade plaque. Gu Qingcheng, who was lying on the side, was tossing and turning, unable to sleep. When a person discovers such a big secret, it is the most incredible thing to be able to sleep peacefully.
.
I raised a new question to myself: "The Saturnians made a wrong time trajectory when they landed on the earth. They fell into a very ancient history and survived until the 21st century, advancing with the time of the people on earth. They did not age.
, he is not dead, but the energy of the spacecraft is excessively attenuated and he is in trouble. So what about this square-eyed warrior? Does he also have superpowers like the Saturnians and can live underground all the time?"
In the narration of "King Catcher" Gui Luo, he saw his eldest brother standing with the square-eyed warrior. Assuming that his words are completely true, it can be proved that just more than ten years ago, the square-eyed warrior was still alive and well.
Unfortunately, all the existing clues are suspected of being "hearsay" and are based on certain assumptions. Without real evidence to support them, they can be easily overturned.
When the morning light came, I rubbed my sore and swollen eyes and sighed: "Another tomorrow has arrived. Will we have new exploration results?"
When the dismissed team members escorted the three unconscious people away, their watches had just pointed to eight o'clock.
The two jeeps were loaded with maximum food, fresh water, lighting equipment, fuel, weapons, and of course, the grenades and petrol bombs that Tiger always carried in his arms.
Uncle Wei, Tiger, and Red Little Ghost were in one car, and Gu Qingcheng and I were in another car, driving all the way to the tunnel. Just before starting, Tiger had already stood on the roof of the car and swore: "Today, I won't be here until the end of the car."
Never look back from the cliff!"
The red kid was still smiling, like a middle school student about to go on an outing, chewing gum in his mouth all the time.
There were no changes in the tunnel, and those strangely arranged stone pillars did not appear again. We passed through the first four five-pointed star spaces very smoothly. When we turned into the fifth starlight channel, we suddenly heard a snake coming from the farthest place.
The commotion of the array and the "hissing, hissing" sound also increased ten times, which sounded extremely terrifying.
"Something doesn't seem right, Feng. Could it be that the flying snakes rebelled and jumped over the platform to kill them?" The little red ghost didn't know what was wrong and was still joking.
Gu Qingcheng took out the telescope and observed it for a few minutes, shaking his head in confusion: "I found nothing. I can see the platform, and I didn't see any strange snake coming over."
Uncle Wei had already parked the car and looked at me and Gu Qingcheng worriedly.
"Miss Gu, you get out of the car. I'll go explore the road myself first. If nothing happens, I'll come back and let you know." The metal box is in my pocket, and I must prove its value.
Gu Qingcheng shook his head quietly: "No need, the two of us will go there together. The people here today are all masters. Everyone can take care of themselves, and no one needs to rely on the other."
The little red devil whistled and looked at Gu Qingcheng with a smile: "Well, it's urgent. The two of you still have the time to give in and express your love to each other. It's really inappropriate. Alas, it's like in a literary film
The romantic part is nothing compared to you guys——"
The excessive teasing and funnyness proved that the red kid was at least three-thirds nervous, but he just didn't want others to see it.
I didn't say a word, stepped on the accelerator, kept the car moving at a speed of twenty kilometers per hour, and was ready to turn around and retreat at any time.
The closer they got to the platform, the more intense the commotion of the snakes became. When the jeep drove onto the platform and faced the array of snakes filled with venomous snakes, Gu Qingcheng suddenly shouted in surprise: "They are running away - Mr. Feng, snakes
The formation is about to disperse, could it be that metal box that is working?"
The snake array has descended to about half a person's height. No matter how big or small, all the green snakes are scrambling to leave. Although the mountain wall is smooth and steep, most snakes can swim steadily on it and nimbly get into all kinds of places.
In the cracks of such rocks.
I took out the metal box and put it on the driver's seat. I couldn't see any change in it. It neither glowed nor made any sound. The only thing that distinguished it from other metal products was that there were no scratches on it, even if the red kid used a knife last night.
I hit it hard with the handle, but there was no damage at all.
The snake array disappeared, and the stone gap returned to calm, stretching into the distance in a winding way.
Uncle Wei's car caught up, but the road ahead was impassable, so everyone had to carry a suitcase on their backs and walk forward.
"Everyone, please work harder. It only takes two hours to see the round stone house. Feng, didn't you say there is a golden egg there? If the five of us divide it equally, each of us can get hundreds of kilograms of gold.
Are you guys happy?" Tiger took the lead and had long ago given up on heavy and cumbersome grenades.
The stone walls on both sides were too high to reach. At first, the little red ghost was still looking around, worried that snakes might fall in certain places. Later, he was convinced that all the poisonous snakes had withdrawn, so he immediately came over and said, "Feng, lend me that box. I doubt it."
It is an ultrasonic transmitter that can produce high-frequency waves that repel snakes and insects. The principle of such an electronic product is extremely simple. I want to dismantle it and see if I can imitate one, hehehehe..."
He is never willing to be lonely. He always wants to find something to do, but I naturally rejected him.
The journey underfoot was not as easy as the tiger said. After walking for three hours, the road became slightly open. After walking for another half an hour, the front suddenly opened up and a large open space appeared.
"Everyone, be careful. The man wearing the golden mask is nearby. The last battle happened here." He took out a submachine gun from his backpack, checked the magazine, and pressed it into the magazine with a "click".
Everyone held a gun in their right hand, and adopted a step-by-step approach to guard against the rocks. They walked out of the rock gap and approached the edge of the cliff.
I have been paying attention to the situation on the other side, and my eyes first fell on the vertical object ten steps away from the cliff. It was indeed not a golden egg, but more like a rusted rescue cabin, standing black and unremarkable.
I wouldn't have paid attention to it if it hadn't been hinted in the picture beforehand.
Behind that thing is a large circular pointed stone house, estimated to be between twelve and fifteen meters in diameter, all made of stones.
I finally saw what I imagined. There was a cyan metal door on the front of the stone house. Such products are often used in functional compartments of spacecrafts. They have super sealing properties and are resistant to thermal expansion and contraction, and acid resistance.
Alkali corrosion, the material is high-strength aluminum alloy products with dozens of metal catalysts added.
Gu Qingcheng stood beside me and whispered to me: "Why didn't you see the stone tablet marked 'Ladder to Heaven'? Let's go to the other side to search what's in the stone house first. I really doubt that everything today was just a dream.
"
The two sides of the cliff are connected by four iron chains, two high and two low. The iron chains as thick as duck eggs are fixed on the rocks by huge anchor piles, which look very stable.
I was the first to walk across the cliff, heading straight for the imaginary golden egg. Its surface was indeed covered with weathered rock fragments and moss. After taking off this layer of disguise, I had to stop with regret.
This metal object does not belong to the Qin Dynasty, but it is not the huge golden egg as imagined, it is just an ordinary metal casting.
"Besides the stone house, there is only one on the cliff. There is no doubt that it is the golden egg that the ancestors of the Li family described, but now, it is obvious -" Gu Qingcheng stood on the other side of it, looking slightly depressed.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. She was encouraged by my "golden egg theory", and her enthusiasm was extinguished by a basin of cold water from her pocket just as she was swelling.
"Ha, there is a coded door in a cave in a deserted mountain. Isn't it just to test my decoding skills? Everyone, get out of the way and look at me -" The red kid was laughing again. Gu Qingcheng and I gave up on the metal egg.
Rushed to the door of the stone house.
Just on the upper right side of the door, there is a black eleven-ring metal code disk embedded.
Gu Qingcheng frowned and sighed: "Mr. Feng, even if you insist that it is not a product of the earth, no one will believe it."
The code disk is marked with clear Arabic numerals, from zero to nine, without missing a single one. Every person on earth will be exposed to this mechanism more or less in their life. Even the cheapest travel bag will be equipped with three numbers.
There is a combination lock with a ring, but the decorative effect of that thing is far greater than its practicality.
This was an eleven-digit combination lock. The red kid stared at it for a few seconds, reached out and turned all the dials to the zero position, then pressed it with ten fingers at the same time, and dialed it a few times casually.
The door slid open to the left with a beep.
The red kid shrugged his shoulders. Decoding was a hacker's specialty. For him, passwords with no difficulty were as boring as drinking boiled water.
Tiger strode in. Everyone is a celebrity in the world. If you always follow others, it will not look good, so he will take the lead and explore the way. But he did not do well in "Landslide"
In preparation for "not changing color in front of me", as soon as my front foot landed, I let out a cry of "ah" and immediately froze there with my mouth open.
Uncle Wei, the little red devil, looked inside and almost screamed and jumped back at the same time.
The layout of this room is basically the same as the painting on the jade plaque. There are more than forty display screens hanging on the three walls. Below the display screen is a huge ring-shaped control console, with a real-life display in the center.
There was only a seven-wheel swivel chair, and what was even more ridiculous was that there was a piece of black armor on the back of the swivel chair.
Gu Qingcheng shouted in a low voice: "That is the cowhide armor of an ancient general. How could it be left in such an environment? Did modern people enter ancient times, or did ancient people break into modern times?"
In front of these things that look like costume props but are not props, anyone will have the illusion of "what night is this night?"
The monitors are all turned off, which is obviously different from the picture on the jade plaque. Maybe I shouldn't always be superstitious about "people who travel through time and space will have super powers." Without enough power, no matter how advanced the equipment is, it is just a pile of waste.
.
"Oh my God, what is this? Where are we?"
Tiger took a step across as if he was sleepwalking and leaned on the console on one side. It was covered with colorful touch buttons. He spread his hands and fingers and gestured over the buttons with a look of extreme horror on his face.
laugh.
I shouted to him in a low voice: "Tiger, don't touch those buttons."
This room is very much like the control cabin of some kind of aircraft, but it seems extremely simple, because no aircraft is built with stone slabs. I can only describe it this way, it seems that someone moved the parts of the aircraft control cabin here, and rebuilt it.
It was arranged as it was originally, but it didn't have any flying function. Including the sliding door, it was just a superficial decoration, and it was only better sealed than an ordinary door.
"All the facilities here require electrical energy control. There is no generator or cable power supply. How can we create electricity out of thin air? God, who is so boring and makes such a big joke on us?"
The red kid scratched the door frame and peered inside.
Indeed, behind the large five-pointed star array filled with poisonous insects, there is such an empty and strange house hidden. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a farce going on.
"Mr. Feng, Miss Feng, listen, what is the sound?" Uncle Wei, who had been following at the very back, suddenly put his hands over his ears and tried to listen.
Occasionally there was wind blowing on the cliff, but there was no other sound. The tiger had already backed away embarrassedly, rubbing his hands and blushing before he could speak.
Uncle Wei retreated towards the cliff, turned around suddenly, and pointed down the cliff: "Right there, I heard someone singing, a girl singing, listen -"
The little red ghost was staring at the buttons intently. He was disturbed by Uncle Wei's cry and shouted impatiently: "There is no sound, unless it's a ghost singing!"
I don't know when, Gu Qingcheng's and I's hands were tightly held together, and our bodies were very close, as if this was the only way we could fight side by side firmly and face any danger that might arise.
"Uncle Wei won't be suspicious for no reason, let's go over and take a look, okay?" Gu Qingcheng's voice was strangely gentle.
I nodded. The place on the cliff was very narrow. You could see to the edge at a glance, and the surrounding stone walls were straight and steep, making it difficult to climb. If anything unusual happened, it should have happened under the cliff.
"Feng, I want to go in and move these buttons, can you?" The red kid started gearing up and eager to try. Anyone who can become a super hacker is a genius in mechanical control. Seeing these buttons that have never been touched before, they must
It feels unbearable.
Gu Qingcheng squeezed my finger hard and nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with the red kid's request.
Without electrical energy, any computer-controlled power system cannot move and is just a lifeless dead thing. After understanding this, everyone's fear of those strange devices in the stone house disappeared.
I smiled and nodded: "Well, it's best not to have any accidents, otherwise we will have no way out."
The little red devil shouted excitedly and jumped into the house, just like a glutton who was allowed to eat as much as he wanted at a feast.
Gu Qingcheng and I walked to the edge of the cliff. Uncle Wei had already crouched down, staring at the rolling white mist under the cliff, listening silently.
The environment here is still closed. There are rocks glowing with white light at a height of more than 20 meters above our heads. If not all the rocks are glowing, I am afraid we will be in boundless darkness.
"Miss, I did hear a girl singing. What she just sang was 'Auld Lang Syne', and now it's - 'What a beautiful jasmine flower, what a beautiful jasmine flower'. Listen!" He
I pinched my throat and imitated a girl's singing, and it turned out that I had a good look, and my voice wasn't too bad.
The tiger also followed and left the red kid alone in the stone house. He stood next to Uncle Wei, looked down, his eyebrows moved, and suddenly shouted: "I heard it too, I heard it too, be careful
The sound, be careful, be careful—"
After being trapped by love, Tiger's concentration, intelligence, and stamina all plummeted, and he would bark recklessly even if he didn't even know his horoscope.
The red kid also yelled: "What are you yelling at? I'm going to close the door, it's so noisy!"
The metal door closed with a sound, isolating the two worlds inside and outside.
"Miss, maybe I can go down and have a look." Uncle Wei stood up and took out a bundle of white nylon ropes from his luggage. Now that we have come here, we can only walk on without hesitation.
