"But Captain Liu's explanation shocked us very much..."

After a pause, Lin Pengyi imitated Liu Ru's demeanor and said: "This archeological operation organized by the state is codenamed'White Fox', which means'Fox Death Head Hill'."

"In other words, the archaeological expedition we are going to conduct this time is not a protective archaeological excavation, but a scientific expedition to explore the origin!"

Speaking of this, Lin Pengyi's ordinary-looking face showed a hint of fanaticism.

"Captain Liu said that five years ago, the National Archaeological Team discovered a sheepskin scroll in Lop Nur, which recorded a mysterious route...a route through the'Da Xianbei Mountain'!!!"

"Daxianbei Mountain?"

Weizard asked thoughtfully, "Are you sure that the route to Daxianbei Mountain is recorded on the ancient sheepskin scroll?"

Lin Pengyi shook his head: "I haven't seen that ancient sheepskin scroll, but I believe what Captain Liu said!"

"interesting!"

Wei Zede smiled: "According to ancient records,'Da Xianbei Mountain' is just a name deified by Tuoba Xianbei. It is not an exact location!"

"This is a recognized thing in the archaeological world! Mr. Liu, what do you think?"

Professor Liu Kaian, who was sitting in the passenger seat, replied in a deep voice: "Yes! Before I saw the sheepskin scroll, I thought so too..."

"Before you see the ancient sheepskin scroll?"

Weizard asked tentatively, "That is to say, everything that Captain Liu Ru said is true?"

"not sure."

Professor Liu Kaian replied: "However, the sheepskin ancient scroll found in Lop Nur is true! Because of this, our national archaeological team has the responsibility and obligation to determine whether the information recorded on the ancient scroll is true or false."

"Okay, let Xiaolin continue."

Lin Pengyi nodded. He lit another cigarette, smoking and saying: "After hearing Captain Liu's explanation, everyone was eagerly excited and full of expectations for this scientific expedition..."

"Wei Sanye, the entire trip of the archaeological team up to the time I mentioned was very smooth! But after entering the cave and entering the secret cave in that cave, things took a new shape... "

Shaking his head, Lin Pengyi seemed to be recalling something unpleasant.

"Before the archaeological team entered the secret cave, Captain Liu let me stop. She seemed to have noticed something..."

"She gave me the old coin, and at the same time secretly told me that if there is any accident to the archaeological team, I must report it to the organization immediately! And also take the old coin to notify you..."

Lin Pengyi laughed self-deprecatingly, "To be honest, I didn't care about Captain Liu's words at the time. Because this time the members of the archaeological team were selected from all over the country, and our preparations were quite good. Sufficient. If there are no irresistible factors, nothing will go wrong!"

After another cigarette, Lin Pengyi's expression suddenly became particularly haggard.

"I regret it! I knew things would turn out to be like this... Alas!"

Settling down, Lin Pengyi continued: "After everyone entered the secret cave, nothing happened. Oh, yes, we communicated through the walkie-talkie... Everyone is in good condition. Archeology. Everyone is accustomed to this unknown situation."

Speaking of this, Lin Peng couldn't help swallowing a few mouthfuls and spitting, he licked his dry lips.

"About an hour later, Captain Liu's exclamation suddenly came from the intercom! I didn't know whether it was a poor signal or some other reason. I didn't hear what the Captain said clearly. After a while, the intercom was completely lost. It worked! I thought about it, but decided to enter the secret cave and plan to meet everyone..."

"Due to the rush to walk, I only brought the'Wolfeye' flashlight and walkie-talkie, but before I went too far, a lot of smoke came in the tunnel behind the secret cave, accompanied by a few screams!"

"... When people are getting older, they are less courageous! As soon as I heard this scream, I immediately dropped the walkie-talkie to the ground and ran back in a panic. When I ran out of the secret cave, my feet slipped, I fainted when I hit my head on the rock wall..."

"When I woke up, the secret cave disappeared! If it weren't for some items stacked there, I would almost think that all this was just a weird dream! Later, I immediately contacted Professor Liu and took it again. Looking for you with ancient coins..."

"Everything, that's it!"

Looking at Lin Pengyi, who was no longer speaking, the doubts in Wei Zede's heart not only did not decrease, but they became more.

"Professor Liu, I heard what you said before,'They can't even find their camping location'..."

Weizard asked: "It should be that the secret cave that Lao Lin said was not found, right?"

"Yes! Without the ancient sheepskin scroll, the secret cave can't be opened."

Professor Liu looked sad: "Every expert who has surveyed said that there is a rock face... So the country changed the plan and dispatched a batch of new rescue teams urgently... But judging from the composition of rescuers, this time Kao, this rescue has become more and more complicated!"

Hearing Professor Liu's words, a question in Wei Zede's heart was answered.

"I mean, how can national-level expeditions find people like'Wei Xiaoning' who are full of rivers and lakes?"

"Everything has to wait until after Gaxiandong..."

Through the window, Weizard noticed that the vehicle he was riding in had merged with the vehicles of the new rescue team.

"Professor Liu, we are here!"

At the driver's reminder, everyone with their own minds came back to their senses.

When the military jeep stopped steadily, Weizard opened the door and walked out.

Standing beside the off-road vehicle, Weizard looked around.

I saw cascading peaks and mountains, towering trees, and pine birches covering the sun. On the cliff not far ahead, a large natural cave is particularly eye-catching.

"This is Gaxiandong..."

Lin Pengyi, who came to Weizede’s side, introduced: “Its hole faces southwest and is about five meters above the flat ground.”

Weizard looked up, and the dark hole couldn't reach the end.

"Go! Let's go over here."

In Professor Liu's greetings, Wei Zede quickly stepped forward and came to the outside of Gaxian Cave.

"Professor Liu! Why do you still go out in person?"

A middle-aged man with the appearance of an official greeted him. He enthusiastically held Professor Liu's hand and swayed up and down.

"It's not Liu Ru girl, there is no news yet..."

Professor Liu said worriedly: "Old man, I really can't rest assured! I will participate in this rescue operation anyway..."

While Professor Liu was chatting with the official, a long army of military vehicles drove from a distance and stopped on the flat ground not far from Gaxian Cave.

Professor Liu looked at the fast-moving soldiers who had begun to line up and asked in confusion, "Xiao Meng, what's the matter?"
