Chapter 53. The Bamboo Sign on the Top of the Cave
Although the Japanese restaurant blocked the plane, we saw on the screen that the plane was getting closer and closer to the entrance of the cave. There were some vines in the upper part of the hole, but the plane was not big and could get in. It was right there
When I was less than two meters away from the cave entrance, I saw the entire cave from the screen.
The area inside the cave is not very large. There is water on the ground, a thin stream, and the edges are covered with moss that has grown due to moisture all year round. There is nothing on the cave wall, only khaki bare stones.
.Looking deeper, there are some collapsed stones on both sides of the cave. It looks like a quite deep tunnel. If Master Situ said that this tunnel is not destroyed by the bomb, it can lead to the Jiefangbei area.
.Li Jia continued to control the plane, entered the hole, and then stopped on the ground.
Hu Zongren asked Li Jia, "There is water here. Aren't your little machine afraid of water intrusion?" Li Jia smiled proudly, and then said that when he modified his aircraft, he had already considered waterproofing as the first step.
, in addition to being able to fly in the sky and walk on the ground, it can also float on the water and even dive a certain distance below the surface of the water. However, Li Jia went on to say that the waterproof function of this propeller motor is not very good yet, so
There are still some problems with diving now. Hu Zongren, okay, there is no place for you to dive here anyway.
Continuing to control the machine, the camera looked around in the cave for a while, but from a distance, I saw a red cloth on the ground from the screen. The red cloth seemed to be covered with something and was raised. It looked like it was covered.
The thing was about the size of a cigarette box. So I told Li Jia to go and see what it was. Li Jia controlled the machine, stretched out the grasping arm, and lifted up the red cloth. The moment it was lifted up,
Interference-like fluctuations appeared on the screen.
Hu Zongren and I are very familiar with this kind of fluctuation. Generally speaking, the frequency of photographic equipment is different from the frequency of human eyes. Precisely because photographic equipment uses "frames" as the calculation unit, each individual picture is
It can be independently extracted and analyzed. This is also the reason why many cameras can capture ghost images. So I looked at Hu Zongren and said, fortunately we did not go in in person, otherwise, we would be the ones who were tricked. Hu Zongren shrugged
He shrugged, looking like we were lucky. As for why there were traces of ghosts under the red cloth, none of us could tell. The only thing we could think of was that this was originally a trap for Hu Zongren, and the purpose was to make Hu Zongren
When I lifted the red cloth, I was struck by a strange trick.
Under the red cloth is a small white porcelain wine glass. There is an eyeball in the glass. Of course, it is not a human eyeball, but the kind of a doll. This should be the real eyeball of the doll in the coffin, which means that the doll
The missing parts are man-made. In addition to the eyes, there are also missing limbs. So this makes us confused again. If we are asked to follow the clues to find the scattered parts of the doll and put them together, then the ultimate goal is
Putting the doll together into a complete doll, why do you want to set an ambush for us in the middle and let us fall into a trap?
I asked Li Jia, can your little machine take out all these things for me? Li Jia didn’t answer me, but gave me an OK gesture. So I then asked him to take out as many things as possible in the cave.
I was taking pictures, but on the top of the cave, I suddenly found a red rope hanging from the top of the cave. There was a small bamboo sign on the rope, so I asked Li Jia not to get busy with things, but to fly the plane.
I took a closer look at the bamboo sign. After the plane took off, I found that because of the propeller fanning, we couldn't see clearly what was on the bamboo sign.
Li Jia suddenly snapped his fingers and said, how about cutting the rope? I asked him what to use to cut it, and he said to use a propeller. I said your propeller doesn't seem to be made of metal. Can it be cut?
Instead, it would get tangled in the rope, and even the plane would be hung there. Li Jia said that's right, if it gets tangled up in the things in the hole, it won't be able to be taken out. Hu Zongren patted Li Jia on the shoulder and said, this way
, you should first take out the wine glass, eyeballs, etc. on the ground. I have an idea.
Every time when Hu Zongren said something like he had come up with a solution, I always thought he had some crazy idea. So I went to Lijia twice to get the things inside.
After coming out, Hu Zongren quickly wrapped the wine glass and eyeballs with red cloth, and wrote a talisman on the red cloth for insurance. Then he asked me for a short piece of rope, then lit a cigarette and tied the cigarette butt to
I picked up the farthest end of the plane's wing and said to Li Jia, while the cigarette butt is still not out, fly in quickly and burn the rope. I touched Hu Zongren lightly again, and he immediately understood.
It is said that this is a difficult task, but the secret of the treasure on the bamboo sign is already at your fingertips!
So Li Jia immediately flew the plane out, like a kamikaze commando. Hu Zongren pulled me aside and whispered to me, why are all the friends around you so weird? I haven't answered him yet.
At that moment, he seemed to realize that he was scolding himself as well. I thought it was funny, so I laughed and said, yes, birds of a feather flock together. When I said this, I realized that I seemed to be scolding myself as well, so
After a few dry laughs, he stood back beside Li Jia.
Li Jia had already begun to burn the rope with the cigarette butt that was about to be extinguished. Because the propeller had airflow, he had to hold the airflow to keep the plane stable, and not let the cigarette butt go out and burn a dangling rope.
, it is still quite difficult, but as I said, Li Jia is a technical geek, and for him, this is nothing more than a small difficulty. The key is to break the rope before the cigarette butt burns out, and it falls with a snap.
on the ground.
The height of this hole is almost three meters, and there seems to be no climbing conditions around it, so it is not easy to drive nails firmly on the top of the hole. Although Hu Zongren and I still can’t understand Xuanyuan Society
How did people get into the hole? But in order to nail nails to the top of the hole after entering the hole, they either brought a tool like a ladder into the hole, or there was more than one person.
Obviously, there must be more than one person.
The plane stopped again, and I saw from the display screen that it was this bamboo sign with something similar to the Riverside Scene during the Qingming Festival carved on it, but because it got wet when it fell, I couldn't see it clearly. So.
Li Jia quickly grabbed the small bamboo sign and flew back the plane. Before leaving, we also made sure that nothing in the cave had been ignored or left behind. I took the bamboo sign from the plane and talked with Hu Zongren
We looked at it carefully together.
I have seen this bamboo sign before, because many shops selling local tourist souvenirs in Chongqing will have such things. On the front of the bamboo sign is a carved picture of Chaotianmen Pier, and it also says "Chongqing? Chaotianmen".
The words are in official script. On the back is a sentence hand-engraved with the tip of a knife:
"No. XX, the owner's surname is Chen."
What does this mean? I asked Hu Zongren, and Hu Zongren said, could this be the next clue? Hu Zongren explained to me that he probably asked us to go to No. XX of Chaotianmen to find this person named Chen.
.I said to myself, since I am talking about the shop owner, he must be the businessman who opened the shop. The handwriting on it is very clear. It must have been engraved on the day when the bamboo sign was hung up. The other party can leave a
The note or the message should be engraved directly on the wall. Why bother to find a bamboo sign specifically to hang on the roof of the cave? Fu Yunni said, why don't you check if there is anything on this bamboo sign?
Supernatural reaction, see if it is consistent with the reaction of the thing in red cloth, right?
Hearing what she said, I took out the compass and looked at it. There was nothing on the bamboo sign. At this time, Li Jia suddenly interrupted and said, this bamboo sign must have been bought by the enemy nearby. You know where we are now.
The place I visited was Hongyadong. In addition to eating and enjoying the scenery, Hongyadong also had a dedicated floor dedicated to selling such commemorative commodities. As soon as Li Jia said these words, I couldn’t help but feel that this person was strange.
A little bit, but the logical thinking is still very strong, so we discussed it and decided to go to the floor where small commodities are sold to see how many vendors are selling this thing. So we waited for Li Jia to put his plane and
After packing up the remote control, we took the elevator to the third floor.
Almost the entire third floor of Hongyadong is selling these things. Most of them are pottery, jade, agate, colored glaze, etc. There are also many horn combs, peach wood combs, etc. We did not look for them separately.
Instead, we went from store to store and asked, and the first store we found that sold the bamboo sign we had said that it was sold as a set, with a total of 8 bamboo signs in it, representing 8 places in Chongqing.
Among them are Chaotianmen and Hongyadong where we are now. So I asked the boss to give me a pair to look at. After I took it out and took a look, I found that although they were the same type of product, they were not produced in the same batch.
Because there are some slight differences between the Chaotianmen painting and the bamboo sign in my hand, I concluded that I definitely didn’t buy it from this store.
After searching for a while, Fu Yunni asked the store owner if there were any such bamboo signs for sale. The store owner suddenly asked Yunni, are you looking for someone?
Hu Zongren quickly asked the store owner, do you know who bought a brand like this from you? The store owner nodded and said, a few days ago, four or five people bought a bamboo set in the store before getting off work.
Then one of the bearded men also left 100 yuan and a business card. He said that someone would definitely come to the store in a few days to inquire about the bamboo plaque. Then he asked me to give the business card to the person who came to inquire.
.
I asked the shop owner, who were there four or five people? What did they look like? How old were they? The shop owner said that they looked about forty years old, and the younger ones looked to be in their twenties. They were all wearing robes.
Taoist priest Hu Zongren and I looked at each other and said that we had really found the right person this time. Hu Zongren then asked, did the other party leave any contact information? The shop owner shook his head and said no, and just gave us 100 yuan.
I'll pay attention to the person who asks about this in the next few days, and then just give the person my business card.
Hu Zongren said, we are the ones here to ask about this matter, please give me your business card quickly. The store owner returned to the counter, took out a pressed business card from under the glass table and handed it to Hu Zongren.
I got close to Hu Zongren and took a look. On the business card was a name named Chen, the address was Chaotianmen Wholesale Market No. XX, and a phone number. And this information was exactly the same as what was engraved on the bamboo sign, so
I said to Hu Zongren, you really guessed it right, it seems we are about to set off to find this shop owner named Chen.
