Chapter 525 The Greed of Adventurers
If someone comes here and sees the advice on the stone tablet to go back, there will be no danger. As long as someone crosses the stone tablet, he will never go back! The road of life and death has been left here. Which one to choose depends on how the intruder chooses himself.
In addition, he also set up a spiritual induction on the innermost line of the array. As long as someone breaks through the first few levels of the array and breaks through the last layer and appears in front of the gate of the cave, he can sense it.
Shortly after Zhao Yue returned to the cave, several foreigners in thick mountaineering down jackets climbed here breathlessly, and several people rolled down not far in front of the stone tablet.
After these people straightened out their spirits and regained a little physical strength, they slowly sat up. These were four people, an old man, two young men, and a young girl, all wearing goggles. Their faces were all Westerners, with towering noses, deep eye sockets, and protruding cheekbones.
Due to the extremely cold temperature, the four people exhaled white breath in their mouths. The foreign old man said, "We have finally arrived here. We are only one step away from success. As long as we pass through the energy barrier in front of us, I think we will make a shocking discovery! Yes, absolutely! It's not in vain for me to raise funds in the past seven years."
"Professor, look! There is a stone tablet in front! There seemed to be a word on it. The taller young man turned his head and saw the stone tablet on the side, and quickly reminded him loudly.
The old man heard the tall young man shouting. He looked up and found that there was indeed a stone tablet not far in front of him. He said to himself, "Hagens didn't mention a stone tablet here before he died!"
After muttering, he said, "Go and have a look!"
Four people got up and walked to the stone tablet with a cold wind. The stone tablet looked very old. Because it was facing the wind, although there was some frost on the handwriting on the stone tablet, it was not covered with snowflakes. This is Zhao Yue's intention to make the old one. He has a little research on antiques. It's not difficult for him to do something old.
"Professor, what kind of text is this? Do you know him?" The shorter young man asked that this font looks very old and has the charm of vicissitudes.
The old man looked at it and shook his head and said, "This should be an ancient Chinese character, which is older than the traditional Chinese characters and small seals in Chinese characters. Lawrence, take a picture and send it back to them to check what kind of text it is and what it means!"
A tall young man named Lawrence took out the laptop in his backpack. After turning it on, he took a picture with his own camera, and then contacted his own person. A middle-aged man appeared in the computer video.
The middle-aged man said, "Hi! Lawrence, is there any progress?"
Lawrence said, "We have arrived at the door of the destination, but there is a stone tablet in front of us, which looks very old. I took a photo and sent it to you immediately. Please find someone to help me see what the words on the stone tablet in this photo are and what they mean."
The middle-aged man sounded the sound of "Didi". The middle-aged man said, "I have received it. Wait for me for 15 minutes!"
After the video was closed, the four people sat down in front of the stone tablet, and then the two young people took off their backpacks and began to set up tents. Fortunately, thanks to their logistical supplies, they brought everything they could bring. If they want to stay here for a long time, they can't stay long without sufficient supplies and energy, because The weather inside is terrible.
After more than ten minutes, the tent was finally set up. The skeleton was made of the lightest and strongest materials. The tent surrounded by strong, durable, windproof and warm cloth was really comfortable and warm. Several people brought equipment and supplies into the tent. The old man asked, "Jennifer How long will our supplies be enough for us to survive?
The girl named Jennifer said, "Father, the remaining supplies are enough for us to survive for three days!" After three days, we will cut off food and heating energy."
The old man nodded after listening to his daughter's words. In fact, he didn't want his daughter to follow him this trip. It's too dangerous here. At such a high altitude, once something happens, there is almost no rescue. The weather here is extremely abnormal. Aircraft generally dare not pass by here and planes pass by here. When the aircraft will be destroyed by a fierce snowstorm, even the fuel used by the helicopter will be frozen and solidified here. How can the propellers fly covered with frost? It fell straight down and crashed.
At this time, the sound of Didi came from the computer. The other party had a message. After the video was connected, a middle-aged man appeared. He said, "Lawrence, I just contacted a professor in China who has a special research on ancient characters. After sending the photo to him, he told me that this is a font called a big seal in ancient China, which is better than a small seal. Older! These four words are pronounced 'those who trespassers die'.
The old man asked, "What do you mean?"
When the middle-aged man saw that it was an old man, he quickly said, "Oh, it's a professor!" These four words mean to remind those who come that it is extremely dangerous in front of them, and they will definitely die if they break in!"
After listening to the middle-aged people's words, the four people in the tent looked at me. I looked at you. They didn't expect such a situation. At this time, the middle-aged people in the video said, "Professor Hua also told me that this kind of stone tablet has appeared in several famous novels in China, and it is also such a font. This is actually The person who erected this stone tablet kindly reminded and warned that if the person who came must break in, he could not blame others after the accident. He could only blame his curiosity and greed! I will kill myself."
After the video was closed, everyone was silent. Obviously, the front was dead! The person who set up this stone tablet has made it very clear that it is no better than the unknown danger. The unknown danger may be dangerous, and there may not be no danger, and this stone tablet clearly tells people that there is danger here, and it is a fatal danger.
"Father, let's be well prepared and come again! There are only four of us, and we don't have weapons to defend ourselves. In case of danger, we don't even have the ability to protect ourselves! Even if we have a major discovery, we can't take the things inside and put ourselves in it!" Jennifer broke the silence and persuaded.
In his heart, the old man had a fierce battle with him, and finally greed defeated the fear of death. "Even if there is a weapon, you may not be able to protect yourself, because you don't know what danger is! Jennifer, I'm 56 years old today, and I don't have a few years to live. It took me several years to raise funds this time. I don't have time! Do you think I can live to death happily when I go back like this? No, you're wrong. This is cruel torture for me. I'd rather die here. You won't understand what I think. I've decided. Let's go now! You three can stay here. If I haven't come out within three days, you don't have to wait for me. Go straight down and go back to China! Never come again!"
After saying that, the old man began to prepare for the clothes and brought all the necessary things. The two young people looked at each other, and then Lawrence said, "Professor, we think this thing is to scare people. In such a cold place, how can there be any danger? It's just bad weather. Bad, now that we have come here, no matter how bad the climate is, we have all experienced it. What are we afraid of? Let's go with you!"
After Lawrence finished speaking, he packed up with the short young man. Seeing this, Jennifer said helplessly, "Okay! Since you all insist so, I'll go too!"
The old man stopped and said, "You can't go. You have to stay here to pick us up. There must be someone left outside. If we don't come out after three days, you can go straight down the mountain and bring our death back!"
What else did Jennifer say? The old man raised his hand to stop him and said, "Don't say any more, that's it! If you don't want me to die with regret, don't stop me and promise me to stay here! Let's go."
An old man and a young man walked out of the tent with their backpacks on their backs. The cold snowstorm hit their faces and made them shiver, but they still bypassed the stone tablet without hesitation. At this time, a white fog blew from the blizzard and drowned their figures.
Jennifer stood at the door of the tent and watched her father and his two students disappear. She was more worried. She quickly turned around and took her laptop and contacted the middle-aged man again. "You just said that several famous novels in China have mentioned such stone tablets, right?"
"Yes, Jennifer, what's wrong?" The middle-aged man asked.
Jennifer said, "Can you help me find two novels that mention this kind of stone tablet? I want to read it!"
"However, I haven't translated the translation, and I can only find the Chinese version on the Internet!" The middle-aged man spread out his hands and said.
Jennifer said, "It doesn't matter. I can understand the simplified Chinese version. Where can I read it?"
"I will send you the URL of an online novel website! Just search in it!" After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he sent an email to Jennifer.
After the old man took two students around the stone tablet, he found that the three of them suddenly appeared in a vast desert. The extreme gap between cold and heat made it difficult for them to adapt. In less than a while, the three of them were unbearably hot and began to take off their backpacks and thick mountaineering down jackets, just wearing them. The underwear also feels so hot that I can't stand it.
However, what surprised them was that although it was very hot, their bodies began to slowly stiffen, their blood began to coagulate, and the three of them fell to the ground one after another.
"Professor, what's going on? We were on the extremely cold peak, but now we suddenly appear in the desert, and why are our bodies stiff in such hot weather? This is a violation of physical common sense!" Lawrence shouted. , .
