Chapter 226: Ruins

As soon as I took a step forward, the monk and Zhang Houhou pulled me back. Su Ri also regained his composure. He was not in a hurry to get involved in those things. He dispersed his subordinates and searched the surroundings carefully.

So many days have passed, the clues are even slimmer, and the search may be in vain.

I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but as time went by, I found that Su Ri's people spread out more and more, and the farthest one was almost a kilometer away. What were they looking for near here? It was a blur as far as the eye could see.

It was desolate and barren. I felt that Su Ri might have concealed some information from me, but I couldn't tell because I was not qualified to ask others to tell the truth.

It was about four or five o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at the scene of the incident. Su Ri's busy work delayed a little time, and the sky was getting dark, so we didn't dare to move because something happened to the scientific expedition team, Xue Longtou, and Xiaowu.

It was night. The guys started setting up tents and boiling water with blowtorches. When we finished eating and drinking and got into the tent, Su Ri's people were still looking around with light sources.

It was difficult for me to sleep peacefully in this place. I got out of the sleeping bag several times, but I could still see the light in the distance. Zhang Houhou squeezed over to me and muttered, not trusting Su Ri. But I knew that Su Ri was reliable.

, he concealed the situation just to keep the secrets of his own organization, and there was no malicious intent.

In the end, I slept for a few hours. It was Zhang Houhou who woke me up. He whispered that Su Ri's people were busy until midnight and seemed to be digging something there with tools.

"What did they find?" I hurriedly got up and got out of the tent. Almost all Su Ri's people were concentrated in the distance.

I rushed over directly, but Su Ri didn't stop me from approaching. I went over and took a look, and they dug a very deep pit. There seemed to be a large broken stone at the bottom of the pit.

"What is this?" I turned around and asked Su Ri.

"Only one place has been dug. We can't fully confirm it yet. Let's keep reading." Su Ri asked his men to change places. A capable man was responsible for selecting another place, which was about ten meters away from the dug hole.

Far and near, and then everyone brings tools to do it.

After all the people below went to work, Su Ri squatted next to the dug hole and lowered his head to look. To be honest, I really didn’t know what he was looking at, so I followed him blankly.

He took some dirt and rubbed it into ashes, and said to me: "There is no treasure here, I just want to confirm one thing."

"What are you trying to make sure of?"

"Look, do these big rocks at the bottom of this pit look like the foundation of a city wall?"

"You mean..." I looked at the rocks at the bottom of the pit, and then at the people working hard ten meters away, and suddenly understood what Su Ri wanted to confirm: "Here,

Was it once an ancient city?”

"If the guess is correct, this should be an ancient city from the Shang Shung Dynasty."

Are the rumors true? If this is really the ruins of an ancient city in Zhangzhung, then where has the entire ancient city gone? It disappeared so cleanly, as if a city had been completely moved away.

The lost ancient city, the lost team...

I was thinking, and Su Ri didn't know what he was thinking. We sat here silently and waited for a long time. When the people working over there dug the hole to the same depth as the first pit, the same big rocks appeared.

"Now, you can go and see the place where your friend disappeared." Su Ri stood up silently.

There are six stones in the center of the hexagon. They are all dark red stones. Under the sunlight, they glow with a metallic luster. If you hit them with an iron rod, you can hear a crisp sound. One of the stones is

It looks like a destroyed wall, with six simple lines, like the fingerprints of a giant scratching on it.

This pattern composed of simple lines doesn't actually cover much information, but it looks like six fingers.

The six stones are about two or three meters apart, like six armored guards standing back to back. In the area surrounded by these stones, there is a pit of about one meter. The pit is very shallow, with only ten or twenty people in total.

The way it is divided, if you don't look carefully, you won't be able to tell that it is a concave shallow pit.

The situation at the place where the incident occurred is roughly like this. Looking at the six stones alone, you may not think there is anything strange about them, but the previous actions and discoveries of Su Ri and others make people feel that these six stones are actually in the

Located in the very center of the entire ancient city, this is the only point worth paying attention to.

During the observation process, we were also on tenterhooks because we didn’t know whether the force that caused the team to disappear had touched something that shouldn’t have been touched? Or was it for other reasons. Su Ri’s people began to get closer to the six stones and directly

I got into the circle surrounded by stones, and I quickly let people pass by.

Because the first batch of guys who escaped from Ali were a little scared at the time, they didn't dare to observe these things carefully at close range. In the end, Su Ri's people found a little bit of clues in the shallow pit. This was a very unusual thing.

The most eye-catching clue is that on the edge of the shallow pit, there is a shovel mark diagonally going down. There is only one shovel mark, which is covered by dust. It should be the mark left by a sharp folding shovel.

When I saw the shovel mark, I immediately concluded that Xiaozhu and the others probably felt that there was something underneath the shallow pit, so they tried to dig, but as soon as the shovel went down, something happened.

Su Ri's judgment was probably similar to mine, so he looked at me, as if asking for my opinion on whether to continue digging this place.

If the reason why Mustache and the others disappeared was because they touched this shallow pit, then we must dig out to see what is underneath. But the risk of doing so is very high, and no one can guarantee that it will not happen again.

It's the same old routine. So I talked to Su Ri and asked him to make some suggestions.

"It must be dug." Su Ri said to me without thinking: "If there is danger, you and your partners should step back and let us do it."

Su Ri did what he said. He left two people behind and gave them some instructions carefully. Then the rest of the people began to retreat far away, watching the two people walking in the distance.

Shitou is working here. I don’t know what the consequences of touching here will be, but after about ten minutes, the situation is still normal. Su Ri waited patiently for a while, maybe because it was too slow for two people to work, so he continued

Two people were sent over.

The excavation went relatively smoothly, but nothing was dug in the middle. It was not until we were nearly three meters away that news came from over there. Because the excavation lasted for a long time, there were no accidents during the period, so when the news came, Su Ri and I

They all rushed over.

The pit was dug in a cone shape. I squatted beside the pit and couldn't see clearly what they dug, and the person who dug the pit couldn't describe it. I thought about it and went down to see it myself.

When I went down to the bottom of the pit, after a brief observation, I felt that what they dug might be a huge stone tool buried deep in the ground, but I couldn't tell the specific shape of the stone tool. I could only see the exposed part of the soil.

Part of it. The exposed part looks a bit like a tripod, but I can't be sure. In other words, I seem to be inside a tripod, or a large stone tool.

During the observation process, the light shone on the wall of the pit, and there were extremely weak reflective spots. I carefully dug it with a shovel, and among the fallen soil crumbs, several particles the same size as rice grains suddenly appeared. They should

They are some fragments that have fallen off from the whole part, like small fragments of miscellaneous crystal.

The fragments are too small, I can't tell what they are, but they are really similar to the piece of non-jade I have seen, which came from the dry well of Heishui City in Xixia. Lei Yingxiong said that it was a bit of scraps from the wheel eye.

, I don’t know whether what he said is true or false.

The appearance of these particles made me feel a little dangerous, but at the same time I felt that we must have dug something, something valuable.

I immediately came up from the pit, and then asked people to go down, clean up all the soil that could be cleared, and try to dig out the entire stone tool as much as possible. Su Ri was also slightly excited. Jila Yimu's organization was looking for it in Ali.

It's been a long, long time, but this time, it's a sign of success.

"This is a site in Zhangzhong. They took away the sacred objects belonging to us Qiang people... I want to get them back, get the sacred objects back." Su Rizai murmured to himself,

In a sense, he is the same as Lei Yingxiong and others, and his enthusiasm for something can even be described as fanaticism. However, their starting points are different and their motivations are also different.

The stone tools underground were very large. The people below doubled the area of ​​the pit and dug deeper. The overall shape of the stone tools was finally revealed. It really looked like a stone tripod without a tripod. We saw

Yes, it’s just that the inner wall of the tripod has almost no patterns or writing. If the tripod is completely dug out from under the soil, I think some writings may be found on the outer wall. But that’s not important anymore. This is the site of Zhang Shung.

, what is hidden must be something left over from the Shang Shung Dynasty. The Shang Shung script has completely become a dead script, and no one will recognize it.

The bottom of the stone cauldron is also very thick. When cleaning the soil at the bottom of the cauldron, they gradually found a mark about one meter long. The mark was obviously carved on it by humans. It was one meter long and about forty centimeters wide. It looked like

One eye.

At this time, Su Ri's burly body swayed, and his expression was a bit complicated, including excitement, excitement, desire, loss, regret... almost all mixed together.

The mark, which was about fifty centimeters deep, was completely cleaned out. At this time, the people below saw something at the bottom of the mark, wiped off the dirt on it, and handed it over.
