In the world of Chinese, the luck of this day is also related to the luck of the next year. So on this day, Chinese people have many taboos, such as not to fight, not to play cards and lose money.
For Xia Lei, his new year's Day is very lucky. It's hard to say whether the whole year ahead is a good one, but today's harvest is not small.
In the study of Ping'an residence, Xia Lei opens the top secret document in the USB flash drive. There's a text file and a video file in the file that Wilhelm sent him.
"Did the Americans get the video record of AE capsule?" Xia Lei was curious and opened the video file.
In the video, there is a small valley surrounded by mountains. There are no plants on the brown mountain. It looks very desolate. The photographer was standing on a hillside to shoot. After shooting the valley, he purposely moved the camera to another direction. Then the Holy Cross mountain appeared in the video, and the Church of the holy sepulchre at the foot of the mountain, but far away.
There is no doubt that this place is Jerusalem, and it is in the suburbs.
The photographer then takes the camera to the valley and goes down. The camera is a little shaky. It looks like the camera is on his head. As he walked, he said, "it's Christmas in the millennium, and I work in this damn place. But it's worth it. As an archaeologist, it's the Ninth Wonder in the world. It's the best Christmas gift from God! "
Video of a woman talking in your boat, "George, don't be too happy too early. We didn't get the information right. Maybe it was just a common cemetery. "
"Believe me, Elena, I have an intuition that this time we will find something amazing." George's voice.
"Is it? I hope so. " "By the way, George, what period of tomb do you think it should be?"
"Professor Mark from Israel and I said by phone that the tomb should be the tomb of the Crusades. Ah, you know, I'm a medieval fan. When I was little, I dreamed of becoming a knight of the Crusades, fighting for the holy God. "
"Come on, you are not a knight. So, did Professor Mark talk to you about the identity of the tomb owner? " Elena's voice.
"No, we just had a brief chat, and then he urged me to come here with you. No, we're here. " George's voice.
They said and walked for ten minutes to the bottom of the valley.
As soon as they went down the mountain, there was a rock wall in the video that collapsed for some reason. Among the rocks was a cave about three meters in diameter and three meters in height.
Two archaeologists went in.
George turned on the flashlight. The light speed of the flashlight was shining forward. The cave was dark, and the video was full of cold rocks. There was nothing else.
After about 20 meters, George shouted, "Professor Mark, here we are!"! I'm George and Elena. "
There was a man's voice in the dark. He said in English: "George, Elena, I'm inside. You can see me when you walk 20 meters inside. Hurry up, I can't wait to show you the miracle! "
" OK, we'll be right here. " George and Elena stepped up.
Two people walked a distance further, after turning a corner, there was light in front of them, and the space in the video was suddenly bright. It's a triangular natural cave, and it's an equilateral triangle. It feels like a pyramid built inside the mountain.
"Wow! Is this nature's pen, or..." Because of the excitement, George can't speak normally.
"How could this be the hand of nature?" an old man with white hair appeared in the camera, and a group of workers were opening a sarcophagus behind him. Very huge Sarcophagus, it looks like a tank made of stone, very solid.
"Professor Mark, you're right. This is the eighth wonder of the world! She looks like a pyramid built in the middle of the mountain! I can't wait to know the identity of the tomb owner. Can you tell me?" George went up and the camera on top of his head was slightly shaking, and the pictures were also slightly shaking.
"I'm sorry, dear George, but I also want to know who the owner of the tomb is. I'm afraid we can't find a clue until we open the sarcophagus. Before that, I suggest you look over your head. " Mark pretended to be mysterious.
George raised his head, and he froze and froze.
Not only he, but also Xia Lei in front of the screen.
The upper part of the equilateral triangle is all human skulls, one after the other. The skulls are arranged orderly. I don't know why they are adsorbed on the stone wall of the rock. They form a bone line climbing around the triangle. At a glance, the dense head is like a huge ceiling covering the upper third of the pyramid.
"My God! Who would do such a thing? "Irene was silent and trembling." is this the devil's lair? "
"God knows." Professor Mark said, "let's go. I'll show you the sarcophagus."
"OK." George followed Professor Mark and asked, "Professor Mark, who was the first person to find out here? How did he find out? "
"It was a week ago. There was a slight earthquake. When you come, you should see the situation of the cave. The rocks were moved to block the cave. After the earthquake, the stones fell down and the hole appeared. " Professor Mark said with a smile, "a young hiker found this place and reported it to the police, so we came. We've been working here for a whole week. We've been killed by that damn sarcophagus. It's too strong, and we can't use explosives to blow it up. "
"You really can't use explosives, it will destroy the cultural relics inside." George said.
"But you're lucky. You're just in time to start." Professor Mark said.
"Will it be opened soon?" Elena said excitedly.
Professor Mark said: "yes, otherwise I would not be so anxious to call you. Five minutes at most. Let's witness the miracle together in five minutes! "
As he walked and talked, Professor Mark took George and Elena to Shiguan.
George stood on the other side of the sarcophagus. There is a blurred pattern in the camera, which is located on the surface of the sarcophagus.
George got closer and cleaned up the dust with his hands. The pattern becomes clearer. It's striking that - AE!
seeing this, Xia Lei suddenly realized what was in the time. Now, he wants to see the moment when the sarcophagus is opened!
"the AE capsule actually came into the world from this place, but it finally swam into my hands, was eaten by me, and made me today..." Xia Lei's inner thoughts are surging, and his inner feelings are extremely complicated.
“a……” George laboriously recognized the letters in the pattern, "E!"
"George, what are you talking about?" Elena made her way.
"AE!" George exclaimed suddenly, "Professor Mark! Did you find it? This pattern is actually engraved with letters! It is engraved with AE! "
" ha ha! "Professor Mark said with a smile:" George, my friend, please don't panic or get too excited. This place is full of the two letters you said. I'm too lazy to count them. "
"Why?" George's tone was full of surprise.
Professor Mark said: "my friend, don't ask me why, I don't know. Let's try to solve the mystery later. "
A few minutes later, several workers finally opened the sarcophagus. Several strong workers worked together to push the lid off the sarcophagus.
Before the lid of the sarcophagus was fully opened, George couldn't wait to reach the sarcophagus and spy.
Under the light, the space inside the sarcophagus is at a glance.
No bodies, no treasures, no cultural relics. At the bottom of the sarcophagus is a fist sized amber, which is crystal clear and bright, and its color is like the golden sunshine that cuts through the darkness at dawn.
In the middle of the amber is a pile of glittering substances, which look like mineral powder or crystal, just like the powder in modern pills.
"How could this happen? What's in that amber? " George said in surprise.
"I've seen a lot of amber, but it's either insects or leaves. How could there be such a strange thing?" Irina was also curious.
"Just take it back and study it." Professor Mark said he reached for the amber.
Just then, a bullet suddenly came from behind and exploded his head in an instant. The brain and blood spurted out of the broken head together, and his life ended in an instant.
"Who are you? What are you going to do "Ah!" With a bang, Joe fell to the ground.
The camera comes to a standstill, always facing the top of the pyramid. Tens of thousands of people looked coldly at the tragedy happening below.
The sound of guns, begging for mercy, crying and Howling mixed into a group, echoed in the space of the pyramid, bringing a sense of creepiness to people.
Finally, a man appears in the video, his back to the camera on George's helmet, unable to see his face. His back is very big. He reached out and picked up the amber in the sarcophagus.
At that moment, Xialei saw a black tattoo on his arm. It's a king cobra.
"Head, there's a camera on that guy's hat. He's recording. Do you want to destroy it?" There are people in the video who speak English.
"No, keep it. Nothing here can be destroyed except the bodies. " The man with the king cobra tattoo said, "blow up the hole when you go out, and everyone who knows this place will be killed."
"Yes!" Several people answered.
Someone put his hand over the camera and turned it off.
