The hexagonal mark that appeared at the scene of the incident puzzled everyone present. The guys looked carefully and found nothing else except this mark, and there were no clues to find in the mark itself.
But this hexagonal mark shocked me because it touched something in my memory.
Dapanwan, the scientific expedition team, Xue Longtou's team, the mysterious disappearance, the hexagonal mark left at the scene...
This kind of shock made me a little overwhelmed, and I was stunned for a while. Not only me, but also many people who knew about this incident, they all thought that what happened to Xue Longtou was just a man who was raped.
An infinitely exaggerated story. But at this moment, I am so close to this bizarre thing. It really happened, and it happened to the team of Mustache and Lei Yingxiong.
"When the incident happened, was there any sound?"
"I asked about this." Zhang Houhou explained: "The two guys were smoking and chatting at the time and didn't pay much attention to anything. One of them said that before the team disappeared completely, there seemed to be a slight rustling sound, like
It’s the sound of stones and sand being blown by the wind on the ground.”
This kind of sound is hard to describe, but under the circumstances, it was easy for the guys to mistake it for the sound of wind, so they didn't pay attention.
In an instant, a burden heavier than a mountain seemed to rest on my shoulders. Mustache, Lei Yingxiong, and Thirteen, the three most important people in charge, all disappeared inexplicably. No wonder Zhang Hou would say
, everything that follows needs to be decided by me.
A burden heavier than a mountain gave me a strong sense of responsibility. After thinking about it, I came up with a more critical question. What on earth were Xiaohu and the others attracted to at that time? I asked Zhang
Monkey, but he told me that the guys who escaped were all responsible for logistics and serious matters. Lei Yingxiong would not tell them clearly, and no one dared to ask what the team was doing in the past. The guys didn't know.
But before the guys left, they took a lot of photos of the scene and sent them back.
"Boss Wei, I don't know what Mr. Lei and the others are looking for, but I hurriedly looked through the photos and thought it might be related to this?"
Zhang Hou spread out all the pictures in the paper bag, picked out two of them, and placed them in front of me. One of them was a panoramic photo, which almost completely covered the place where the incident occurred. It was a very desolate area and could not be seen.
What kind of creature? There is only one towering mountain on the endless plateau. I saw the hexagonal mark. There was no one in the photo, and there was no reference for the area and volume, so I couldn’t tell how big the mark was. It seemed to be very big.
Marks from heavy car tires.
From the photo, you can see that there are several very large stones in the center of this hexagonal mark.
My eyes turned to the second picture, this one was a close-up of several big rocks. At this time, Zhang Monkey pointed his finger to remind me.
These big rocks are really big, one of them is like a raised building. What Zhang Hou showed me were a few traces on the stone, six to be precise.
These six traces are deeply imprinted on the stone. I don’t know if they are formed naturally or man-made. Their lines are very simple, but when you look at them from the front, the simple six lines seem to form an abstract
The pattern is like six fingers on a hand.
I don't know if this is because I was affected by some previous events, thus interfering with my own judgment, but the traces on this stone made Zhang Hou feel strange, so my opinion is relatively correct.
I looked back and forth at other pictures, but apart from the stone with the six marks, there was really nothing worth noting.
"Boss Wei, the situation is roughly like this. Let's analyze it." Zhang Houhou carefully put away the picture, sat across from me, and said, "This accident may really be beyond our imagination. The team disappeared, and it was not a trap."
Going underground, or finding some entrance, etc., the guys checked very carefully after the incident. Boss Wei, I thought about it for a long time, and I thought of almost everything, but I still couldn't figure it out. I felt,
Mr. Lei and the others, are they...are they..."
"What is it? Tell me quickly."
"Did they violate any taboos? Boss Wei, that place in Tibet is really mysterious..."
"Is this your analysis?" I leaned back on the chair and closed my eyes and started thinking. I don't know why, but I naturally connected the strange thing I experienced before with the disappearance of the team.
I regretted a little. I regretted that when Cao Shi told me that strange thing, I didn't ask him in detail, let alone asked him if there were any hexagonal marks in the place where we disappeared inexplicably. But after thinking about it, even if I asked him,
, he may not know either. Because he was also carried back. No one will know what the scene was like unless the old man said it.
In fact, I am now thinking about two cases with a certain time span to see if there is a possibility of merging them. But there are too many things lacking, and I am not sure.
The only thing that is certain is that the team is no longer where the incident occurred. I don’t know where they will go or what kind of encounter they will experience. I don’t know where to look for them now. After thinking about it for a long time,
I feel that only by going to the place where the incident occurred and seeing it in person can we find something more intuitive, and perhaps, we can find the real reason why they disappeared.
"Old Zhang, how many people do you have available to you now?"
"There is actually no shortage of people, but there are very few who can cope with the situation." Zhang Hou looked at me, rolled his eyes habitually, and asked tentatively: "Boss Wei, you...
.What are your plans?”
"Gather the people you can use, make preparations, and go to Ali."
"What? Go to Ali!" Zhang Houhou's eyes immediately jumped: "Boss Wei, that place is not Lijiang or Xishuangbanna. I just went there..."
"Old Zhang, are you talking like farts? Just now you said you wanted me to make a decision, and I came up with an idea, and you made irresponsible remarks again." I waved my hand and said, "Don't forget, your Mr. Lei also
In the team! Get ready! Also, hurry up and check the general situation at the place where the incident happened, and be more detailed!"
Zhang Houhou saw that my tone was very firm, he hesitated for a moment, then nodded, turned around and went out. I took out the pictures in the paper bag one by one and looked at them. That day, the people below started to take action. For dinner
At that time, Zhang Houhou came over and told me some things, mainly about the specific situation of the place where the incident occurred.
Ali has a relatively vast territory and a small population. It is one of the areas with the smallest population density in the world. There are wastelands everywhere. It is difficult to have an intuitive understanding of the local situation without being there. If you check it from written materials,
, the information cannot be accurate to a very specific unit. Apart from these, most of the information Zhang Houhou checked was about Ali's history.
Ngari has a long history. In ancient books in the Central Plains, it is called Yangtong, also known as Shantong. The Xiangxiong Kingdom established after the gradual development of Yangtong is the oldest dynasty on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
Like the Western Xia Dynasty, this was a plateau empire shrouded in mystery. It is said that the most primitive and ancient Bon religion in Tibetan areas was founded by the Zhangzhong people. The main reason why later generations think Zhangzhong is mysterious is that after the rise of Tubo, step by step
They destroyed the huge Zhang Hung, but after their demise, just like the Huns who were violently attacked by the Han Dynasty in history, they disappeared out of thin air in the long river of history.
What disappeared out of thin air was not only the population of Shang Hung, but also the most critical culture. Their written documents and even the large buildings built during their heyday disappeared. If Shang Hung had not existed and the Tang Dynasty at that time,
Persia, Tubo and other neighboring countries had exchanges and contacts, leaving some information that can be checked. Maybe future generations will not know that there was such a country on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in history.
When Shangxiong was at its most powerful, it was divided into three parts: inner, inner and outer. Today's Ngari area is probably the inner Shangxiong at that time.
Zhang Houhou checked a lot of information, but the help to me was basically zero, so I gave up on it. The matter had already been revealed. Only by looking for it myself could I find something.
But when I was alone in the room, the feeling in my heart was very strong. I really felt that the disappearance of the team was directly and closely related to my previous strange experience. This was a very strange situation.
A good omen, if this is really the case, then there is no guarantee that Mustache and the others will be found again.
At the same time, I also held a strong fantasy in my heart. No matter what happened during the disappearance, Cao Shi and I did come back alive. I just hope that the team can be like me and miraculously return to life a few days later.
back to the place where they disappeared.
Of course, this is just my fantasy, just a fantasy.
The guys who escaped from Ali stayed in Shiquanhe for the time being. Zhang Houhou's people had never been to Tibetan areas, so they had to go to these guys for advice on everything. Some equipment could not be found in Xiangyin at all.
We could only send people to other places to purchase them. This wasted a lot of time. When we were about to officially leave, I looked at the team. Except for the monk, the rest of the team was really crooked except for carrying equipment.
I don't know if I can do anything else.
I am a person in charge without any opinion, and the team is a bad team. But when I walked out of the room and took the first step on the journey facing the sunshine, another very strange premonition floated back and forth in my heart. I had a premonition that,
This journey may not be too peaceful, but maybe I can touch some truth.
