As for why it is certain that the Reinforced Team will not take too long to know this news, the reason is very simple. In recent years, China's national strength has greatly increased. If the Reinforced Team had received this news earlier, they would probably have taken action long ago. After all, it would have been much easier to take action at that time than it is now.
Old Hu glanced at Yang Qi and said slowly, "The Tak Desert is the largest desert in China. The ancient Silk Road and the ancient countries in the Western Regions all passed through the Tak Desert. It is one of the most mysterious areas in China. Because of the harsh environment, it is difficult to go deep into it even now."
Yang Qi was startled and wondered why Mr. Hu suddenly talked about this.
"When I was young, I went to the Tak Desert. Our archaeological team had more than 20 people at that time, but in the end, only six people came back alive. Even two of our three guides died in the Tak Desert." Old Hu sighed with a look of nostalgia on his face.
"Mr. Hu, have you ever been to the Tucker Desert?"
Yang Qi was shocked at first, but then he was overjoyed. If Mr. Hu had been to the Tak Desert, he must know something about it.
Mr. Hu suddenly changed the subject and said, "Not only have I been to the Tak Desert, I also know that there are some ruins in the Tak Desert, but those ruins were destroyed decades ago."
The ruins were destroyed
Yang Qi's face changed slightly, and he looked at Xie Wei beside him. There was no surprise on the other person's face, as if she had already known about this matter.
"What kind of ruins are those?" Yang Qi asked hurriedly.
"Keep it secret." Mr. Hu said calmly.
Keep it confidential
Yang Qi was stunned, looking at Mr. Hu in astonishment, then he saw that the other party did not seem to be joking, and immediately realized that this was not just Mr. Hu's casual remark, but was probably restricted by the confidentiality regulations!
As a member of the National Security Bureau's Ninth Bureau, although Yang Qi had been to the National Security Bureau's Ninth Bureau only a few times, he knew about the existence of the confidentiality regulations. It was obvious that matters regarding the ruins could not be spread at will.
Yang Qi looked at Mr. Hu and said slowly, "If I'm not mistaken, then the ruins should not belong to Earth civilization, right?"
When he heard Yang Qi's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Old Hu's eyes, but he quickly recovered. If Yang Qi hadn't been sensing the changes in Old Hu's expression, an ordinary person would not have been able to detect it at all.
"I don't know about that." Mr. Hu said indifferently.
Although Mr. Hu did not admit it, Yang Qi was certain from the other party's previous changes that the relics found by Mr. Hu and his team should be something belonging to technological civilization.
"But something seems to be wrong!"
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows. If Mr. Hu and his team had found that relic, why had China's technological development not been fast in recent years? And Mr. Hu had said before that the relic had been destroyed decades ago
China destroyed the remains of scientific and technological civilization. You have to know that China was extremely poor decades ago. Under such circumstances, how could it be possible to destroy the remains of scientific and technological civilization
With so many speculations flashing through his mind, Yang Qi became more and more curious about the ruins, but Old Hu seemed unwilling to say anything, which made him feel helpless.
Yang Qi took a deep breath and looked at Hu Laodao, "Hu Lao, although I don't know what level of confidentiality regulations you have been given, I know that the Americans are now eyeing Tucker Desert!"
"What?"
Hu Lao's face changed slightly, and he frowned and said, "This is impossible. Although the incident was kept secret back then, the United States should know about it. They should also be aware of the destruction of the ruins!"
Xie Wei looked at Yang Qi and said solemnly, "Are you sure the Americans have set their sights on Tucker Desert?"
"Yes." Yang Qi nodded slightly. Wang Baiyi was not stupid. If he was not absolutely sure about such things, he would not tell him.
"this… "
Mr. Hu's expression was also solemn. Logically speaking, the Americans were well aware of what happened back then. The ruins were all destroyed, so there was no point in them staring at them anymore.
"Mr. Hu, is it possible that there is another relic in the Tak Desert?" Yang Qi suddenly said.
It is impossible for the enhanced team to start a war for a destroyed relic, but Mr. Hu is sure that the ruins in the Tak Desert have been destroyed. If both sides are telling the truth, then there is only one possibility, that is, there is a second relic in the Tak Desert!
"The second relic?"
When these words were spoken, both Mr. Hu and Xie Wei were stunned, because after discovering a relic in the Tak Desert, they instinctively felt that there could not be a second relic in the Tak Desert.
However, after Yang Qi mentioned this, they remembered that in archaeology, seeing is believing. It is possible that several ruins appeared in succession on the same piece of land, and it is not impossible for a second ruin to appear in such a large area as the Tak Desert.
"It's possible. If that's the case, then we're in trouble!" Old Hu's face changed drastically.
China once tried to develop that relic, but unfortunately China's technology was too weak at the time, which eventually led to an accident. In desperation, they had to destroy the relic.
But now China's technology is capable of developing the ruins. But if the United States, which has the strongest technological power, gets the ruins, it will be troublesome. The United States' technological power will surely grow again and become the real overlord!
"Mr. Hu, what should we do now?" Xie Wei asked hurriedly.
Mr. Hu said solemnly, "The most urgent task is to determine whether the ancient artifacts that appeared this time are from the original ruins. We also need to determine the location of the ruins. Otherwise, in such a harsh environment as the Tak Desert, without a specific location, we will never be able to find the ruins!"
"However, to confirm whether the ancient artifacts come from the ruins, my own strength is not enough, and I need the help of some old brothers from that time." Old Hu sighed lightly, with a hint of helplessness on his face.
After all, he is only an archaeology expert, and the ruins involve more than just antiquities. They require more detailed analysis. Some things are simply not within the scope of archaeology and must be tested by experts in other fields.
"Mr. Hu, now you can tell me what happened to the ruins back then, right?" Yang Qi looked at Mr. Hu and said.
"This~"
Hearing this, Mr. Hu fell silent again. Although he believed that Yang Qi would not lie to him, this matter was of great importance. He could not tell anyone else until it was completely confirmed.
"Aren't you from the Ninth Bureau of the National Security Bureau? I've said before that your identity is special. If you speak up, you can get detailed information about this matter directly. Why do you have to ask Mr. Hu?" Seeing that Mr. Hu was conflicted, Xie Wei glared at Yang Qi unhappily.
Mr. Hu was startled, then seemed to remember something and sighed, "I forgot that you are not an ordinary person. There were people from the National Security Bureau who were involved in this matter. They have detailed intelligence. If your authority is high enough, you can directly access it."
Is this possible
Yang Qi's mouth twitched, and then he could only smile bitterly and nodded. (To be continued)
