- Song Hao found the team leader and told him that he would go to Mongolia with the Tianyi Group's expedition team in a few days to find a batch of valuable medicinal materials, and asked him to make corresponding preparations. The corps commander was very happy after hearing this.
In the next two days, Song Hao and Tang Yu began to adjust the work of Tianyi Hall. They knew that the time of this expedition could not be shortened to avoid the loss of Tianyi Hall during their absence. There is a management hiatus. He also told Song Zihe, Lin Fengyi, and Wu Qiguang about the Tian Medical Library. To the surprise of several people, they said that if the Tianyi Library could be found and transported back to Tianyi Hall, the formulas produced by Tianyi Hall in the future would contain bezoar, musk, rhinoceros horn, and cinnabar, such as Niuhuang Angong Wan. The medicines are not only guaranteed to be produced for a century, but also achieve the best effect in terms of efficacy, which is of great significance.
Song Hao then convened a meeting of middle-level and above-level cadres from Jiang He and other Tianyi Hall to fully explain their future work. In particular, it was emphasized that the construction of the Tianyitang Traditional Chinese Medicine School site and beauty salon, as well as the implementation of the ongoing enrollment plan, must be carried out without any slack.
However, just after Song Hao explained all this, Qi Yannian unexpectedly called.
"Song Hao, I have thought about it again and again. You should not go on this expedition. Because it involves going far into the Gobi Desert, it is quite dangerous. I am afraid that you will have an accident. And youyour Aunt Du also opposes your adventure. "Qi Yannian paused on the phone and said.
"" Song Hao felt the warmth of being cared for and was speechless for a moment.
After a moment of silence, Song Hao said: "The search for the Tianyi Medicine Storehouse is of great significance, so let me go. With Tang Yu and Wu Zhang accompanying me, as well as Mr. Gu and the others, nothing will happen. Besides, this kind of Extraordinary adventure experiences are not something you can encounter all the time, and they are also a test for people's will. It is not that I have never encountered dangerous things before, but I have always been close to it. This incident has inspired me. My curiosity has been piqued, and I will regret it if I don¡¯t go.¡±
"Okay, then we will respect your decision. I will send my secretary Li Fan to pick you up tomorrow morning. Li Fan has also participated in two expeditions to find the Tianyi Depot. If you need anything, just ask him. , you are going on my behalf and you must cooperate with the expedition team. Gu Xiaofeng and the expedition team will meet you in Inner Mongolia." Qi Yannian said.
Early the next morning, two off-road vehicles drove into the courtyard of Tianyi Hall. A gentle young man wearing glasses got out of the car in front. This person was Li Fan, one of Qi Yannian's personal secretaries. Song Hao and Tang Yu had met him several times before.
Song Hao, Tang Yu, and Wu Zhang, who had been waiting for a long time, then got into the two off-road vehicles and went away in the dust.
"Mr. Song, the chairman has ordered that this operation be treated as if you, the people from Tianyi Hall, are traveling with the team. If you have anything to do, please tell me, and I am willing to help." Li Fan, who was sitting in front, said respectfully. Obviously he knows something about the relationship between Song Hao and Qi Yannian.
"Just call me Song Hao." Song Hao said: "I heard that Brother Li also participated in two expeditions to find the Tianyi Medicine Storehouse."
"Yes, I participated in the fifth and sixth operations on behalf of the chairman." Li Fan said.
"It seems that Brother Li has a better understanding of the search for Tianyi Medicine Library. How about you tell us the details." Song Hao said.
"No problem!" Li Fan smiled and felt warm to Song Haoneng when he called him Brother Li, and then said: "The first action was twelve years ago. The chairman hired a group of professionals from overseas. The explorers formed an expedition team, and in the next five operations to search for the Heavenly Medicine Storehouse, they were all carried out by this expedition team. The Heavenly Medicine Storehouse was presented to the former Heavenly Medicine Sect by a Mongolian prince. A batch of valuable medicinal materials, due to historical reasons, could not be transported back in time and were buried somewhere in the Altai Mountains of the Gobi. Because it was in Mongolia, in order to provide convenience for the expedition team, and to find it in the future After building this Tianyi Medicine Depot, the Mongolian government can provide convenience and safely transport the valuable medicines in the Tianyi Medicine Depository back to the country through legal channels. The chairman ordered Tianyi Group to invest in Mongolia first. Cooperation on some projects. Later, an agreement was reached with the local government. The Tianyi Group formed an expedition team to search for a legendary treasure. After the treasure was found, the gold, silver and jewelry were equally divided with the other party, but non-metallic objects were specially marked. , are all owned by the Tianyi Group, and those belonging to the cultural relics category are owned by the Mongolian government. In the following years, the first three expeditions to find the Tianyi depot all ended in vain. Especially three years ago, in the third During the four expeditions, accidents occurred, and three expedition members were sacrificed. One of them was lost in Death Canyon, and the other two made mistakes and fell from the cliff. Because of this accident, the expedition to find the Tianyi Depot Operations stalled for a year. It was restarted two years ago with the start of the fifth??The sixth search, both times, I participated on behalf of the chairman. But there was no result. This seventh time was the last time. If the Tianyi Library could not be found anymore, the chairman would give up, because the Tianyi Group had spent a huge amount of financial and material resources on this. If it continued like this with no results, it would be There's no point anymore. "
"Tian Medicine Library!" Song Hao sighed secretly, knowing that Qi Yannian paid such a huge price and still tried his last effort without any results. This shows the value of Tian Medicine Library and its appeal. .
That evening, in a border town between Inner Mongolia and Mongolia, Song Hao, Li Fan and their party met up with the expedition team waiting here.
First, we met Gu Xiaofeng and his five disciples from the Life and Death Sect. Gu Xiaofeng welcomed the arrival of Song Hao, Tang Yu and Wu Zhang. Then he introduced Wang Feng, the captain of the expedition team. This man is a Chinese explorer. He led the team in the first six operations of the Tianyi Group to find the Tianyi depot. He is an expert in exploration invited by Qi Yannian with a lot of money. . This expedition team originally had more than twenty people, and together with the people from the Sect of Life and Death and the Heavenly Medicine Hall, the number reached thirty-three people, with a total of twelve off-road vehicles and complete equipment.
In the hotel room, Wang Feng, Gu Xiaofeng, Song Hao, and Tang Yu held a small meeting.
Wang Feng told Song Hao that the expedition team will leave the border of Inner Mongolia and will be assisted by someone after entering Mongolia. Wang Feng then showed an old piece of parchment on the table. This was the treasure map that the Mongolian prince Duduer had his cronies draw. Although the mountain and place names above are in Mongolian, the translated Chinese characters are marked next to them.
Wang Feng pointed to the map and said: "The goal of our trip is to enter the Gobi Altai Mountains in Mongolia, an area known as the Death Canyon, where the Tianyi Medicine Storehouse was buried by the Mongolian prince Duduer. We have to go to a certain place there. First we have to reach the Karen Mud Fortress on the edge of the Gobi Altai Mountains. It was originally the residence of a hunting ground of Prince Duduer. It is now abandoned and has been used by our expedition team to enter and leave the Gobi Altai several times. It¡¯s a base for Mount Tai.¡±
Song Hao saw that the Karen Citadel was located in the lower right corner of the treasure map, and clicked a red mark. Above it was a large area pointed by arrows, which must be the Gobi Altai Mountains. There is a blue circle in it with "Death Canyon" marked next to it.
Wang Feng coughed at this time, glanced at Song Hao and Tang Yu, and then said: "This time, according to Mr. Qi's request, we will search again for the suspicious location in Death Canyon. But it is a dangerous area. Once you walk in by mistake, you will easily get lost, and the hope of surviving is very small. In the previous six expeditions, three teammates were accidentally sacrificed. Therefore, after entering the Death Canyon, all actions must be obeyed. You are not allowed to leave the team without authorization. Only in this way can your personal safety be guaranteed. This must be remembered. I promised Mr. Qi that I will bring you back as I took you there."
¡°Obviously, this Wang Feng regarded Song Hao and Tang Yu as tourists.
Song Hao smiled and said: "Don't worry, Captain Wang, we will just treat it as a tourist and won't cause any trouble to your work."
"This is the best!" Wang Feng nodded and said: "The search for the Tianyi Medical Library is between me and Mr. Gu. However, Mr. Song, as the plenipotentiary representative of Mr. Qi, has the right to suspend the search for the Tianyi Medical Storehouse at any time. Expedition action.¡±
Song Hao frowned after hearing this, and seemed a little confused by what Wang Feng said.
"Of course!" Wang Feng said with a smile to himself again: "For our last operation, it is best to find the Tianyi Medicine Library. If so many bezoars, musk, and rhino horns were put on the international market, they would be worth at least several billion dollars. !¡±
Early the next morning, the expedition team set off, first arriving at a border inspection station. After going through relevant exit procedures and a series of inspections, the team was allowed to pass and entered Mongolia.
At the Mongolian border checkpoint, I was subject to a routine inspection by the Mongolian border guards. After confirming that I was not carrying prohibited smuggled items, I was allowed to pass. There were several cars and a group of people waiting there in front to pick up the expedition team.
A middle-aged man came forward and shook hands with Wang Feng, Gu Xiaofeng and others. Under Wang Feng's introduction, the man shook hands with Song Hao affectionately and said: "Hello, Mr. Song, I am the designer of Tianyi Group. Zhang Kaiyang, the person in charge of the investment company in Mongolia, welcome to Mongolia."
Zhang Kaiyang then introduced a Mongolian beside him named He Lin, who was a member of the Mongolian government. He Lin waved to the back, and someone unloaded a dozen rifles and some bullets from the car. This is a defensive weapon provided by the local government of Mongolia to the expedition team after special negotiation by Tianyi Group for each expedition to prevent any intrusion into the expedition.You may be attacked by wolves during the hunting process, but it is prohibited to use these weapons for illegal hunting activities.
After five or six hours of travel, the convoy arrived at a town. Zhang Kaiyang has prepared sufficient supplies for the expedition team here as well as some advanced communication and detection equipment that cannot be transported through the border station.
Song Hao and Tang Yu secretly praised Tianyi Group for making such complete preparations.
After some preparations and a night's rest, early the next morning, the expedition team bid farewell to Zhang Kaiyang, He Lin and others. A group of twelve off-road vehicles set off in a mighty manner, heading towards Kabul at the foot of the Gobi Altai Mountains. Lun Tu Fort gallops away.
The scenery of thousands of miles of natural pastures is shown outside the car window. The blue sky is endless and the green grass is endless. The water and grass are plentiful, and cattle and sheep are everywhere. The grass swayed with the wind, rising and falling like waves, and the waves rippled away. There are flowers in the green grass, colorful, the fragrance of grass and flowers is strong, the wind blows, and it is pleasant. The natural beauty is like a colorful tapestry, magnificent and intoxicating.
"It's so beautiful! It's like being in a painting!" Tang Yu exclaimed.
"Living on this thousands-mile grassland is really one of the great enjoyments of life!" Song Hao also said with emotion.
In the next few days, Song Hao also met some people in the expedition team, including Zhou Jun, Liu Shijie, Li Zhengguang, Wang Peitong, Zhong Yongpei, Zu Quan, and Ning Guo. But Song Hao felt that these people were very indifferent to him, Tang Yu, and the corps commander, and even Li Fan. It may be that the arrival of these useless "tourists" did not really help the expedition team. Sometimes And it will become a burden. Song Hao shook his head secretly and ignored it.
During a break, Wang Feng pointed to the outline of the undulating mountains in the distance and said to Song Hao: "That's the Gobi Altai Mountains! But we can't get to the foot of the mountain until tomorrow evening. Earth fort.¡±
That evening, the expedition convoy finally arrived at the foot of the Gobi Altai Mountains. The so-called Karen Citadel is a complex of stone and soil buildings built on an earth mountain. It was originally a residence set up by the Mongolian prince Duduer in this hunting ground. At this time, it was abandoned and dilapidated. , but there are still some houses that can provide shelter from wind and rain, so it has become a base for the expedition team to enter and exit the Gobi Altai Mountains seven times.
The landform here is very strange. Standing on the Karen Mud Fortress, you can see that there are fertile pastures in front of you, but a few miles away, you can see the vast Gobi Desert with no grass growing as far as the eye can see. It is majestic and desolate.
Along the way, he was used to seeing the beautiful and eye-catching grassland scenery, and suddenly he saw the spectacular and majestic Gobi Desert. Song Hao was heartbroken, and he took the team leader and drove the off-road vehicle to go there to experience it. Tang Yu shook his head and smiled, preparing dinner at home.
Entering the Gobi area, the team leader drove the off-road vehicle a long way before stopping.
Song Hao got out of the car and exclaimed involuntarily. It was evening, the sun was setting in the west, and the afterglow was slanting, making the grotesque Gobi landforms even more bizarre. Coupled with the huge shadow of the Gobi Altai Mountains, the towering earth and sand walls, strange rocks and rocks in the valley ahead became particularly terrifying and intimidating. It is like a devil's palace that will devour all living things that enter it.
"It should be better to come here during the day, but now is not the time! Let's go back." Song Hao said timidly.
Wu Chang heard this and smiled.
Karen Castle.
Several rooms were lit with lights powered by their own generators, and everyone was eating around the table. What we ate was freshly roasted whole lamb, the fat sheep purchased from the herdsmen on the way here.
"Wolves often attack at night. It's best not to leave the bunker. Even if you are dragged away by the wolves, just these dozen rifles cannot carry out rescue in the dark night. There are hundreds of wolves on the grassland. , instead of encountering them, we can only stick to the earth fort and cannot attack." Wang Feng warned. He glanced at Song Hao intentionally while speaking. It was obvious that Song Hao and Wu Zhang had gone to the Gobi to see the scenery in the evening without his consent, when wolves were likely to appear, which had caused him displeasure.
Song Hao heard this and smiled apologetically.
"Tomorrow we will officially enter Death Canyon to search for the heavenly medicine storehouse. Song Hao, I think you should stay in the castle with Miss Tang. The work there is more dangerous and not suitable for you. Otherwise, it will Leave other people to guard the vehicles and supplies," Wang Feng said.
"Now that we are here, we don't want to be idle. Even if it is to help everyone," Song Hao said.
"It's up to you!" Wang Feng said.
After dinner, Wang Feng unfolded the treasure map on the table. and Gu XiaofengWhile discussing the specific work assignments for tomorrow, Song Hao stood aside and watched.
"We have carefully checked all the suspicious points in Death Canyon during the previous six searches, and we have not found the existence of the Tianyi Medicine Library. But this is the last search, so we have to re-search those suspicious points. Screen it again. Based on the previous survey of the terrain in that area, we plan to include the area outside Death Canyon in the search scope," Wang Feng said.
Song Hao, who was next to him, looked at the map for a while and said, "Although Death Canyon is drawn in the middle of the map, the Heavenly Medicine Library may not be buried here. This map may lead us into a misunderstanding. Maybe. Otherwise, why six large-scale searches have yielded no results."
Wang Feng was startled after hearing this, and then smiled: "It is clearly marked on this map that the Tianyi Medicine Storehouse is buried in this blue circle, and this blue circle is the entire Death Canyon area. It's just that This batch of valuable medicinal materials in the Heavenly Medicine Library does not occupy a very large volume and is buried in a small cave somewhere, so it is extremely difficult to find. If according to what you said, the Heavenly Medicine Library is not in Death Canyon, then it will be in Death Canyon. Where? We cannot take the entire Gobi Altai Mountains as our search target. When the Mongolian prince handed this treasure map to the Heavenly Medicine Sect, he was clearly telling the people of the Heavenly Medicine Sect that the Heavenly Medicine Storehouse It's buried in Death Canyon. All the arrows on the map are pointing here. It should be no different. It's just that it's extremely hidden. We brought a lot of explosives this time to conduct directional blasting at the suspicious location. It should be It can blast out some hidden dark holes.¡±
"Oh! I'm just talking. I'm not good at treasure hunting, so don't listen to my opinion." Song Hao said.
Wang Feng and Gu Xiaofeng looked at each other and smiled.
Song Hao felt bored, so he returned to the room to rest. Tang Yu has already tidied up the room. Since the expedition team knew that they were lovers, they were placed in a room with "special care". However, there was no such thing as sharing a bed. Instead, blankets were laid out on the floor, and everyone just got into their own sleeping bags.
Li Fan came over at this time and said, "Song Hao, Miss Tang, Brother Wu Zhang and I are next door to you. Just call me if you need anything."
Then, Li Fan said mysteriously: "There is a satellite phone in my yellow backpack. It is a dedicated line that can directly contact the chairman when special events or accidents occur. It can also notify Zhang Kaiyang as soon as possible." Yes. When you two want to contact the outside world, you can use it privately, but don¡¯t let anyone find out. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Understood!" Tang Yu smiled gratefully.
"Just understand!" Li Fan smiled, said "good night" and turned around.
After turning off the lights, Song Hao lay in his sleeping bag and said to Tang Yu with some confusion: "Why can't I understand the treasure map that the Mongolian prince left for the Heavenly Medicine Sect? Even if the Heavenly Medicine Storehouse is not marked, We need to have some hints about the specific location. How can we trap all the Death Canyon? It was in vain that the Tianyi Group tried six times and still found nothing. Even searching ten more times was useless. Yes! Qi Mr. Qi said that when Qi Liang, the head of the Heavenly Medicine Sect, saw this picture, he knew the specific location of the Heavenly Medicine Storehouse. Why did he know it at a glance? What hint should the Mongolian prince give him? of."
"You're saying that it's possible that the Heavenly Medicine Storehouse was not buried in Death Canyon, but was buried in another place and marked on the treasure map?" Tang Yu asked in surprise.
"This is just a guess of mine. But it has been denied by Captain Wang." Song Hao said.
"Your guess is not unreasonable. Since you can't find the Heavenly Medicine Storehouse in Death Canyon, why can't you try other places?" Tang Yu said.
"Other places! Are you talking about the entire Gobi Altai Mountains?" Song Hao shook his head and said: "Looking for it that way is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is meaningless. Okay, go to sleep. We will do an on-site inspection when we get to Death Canyon tomorrow. Ichiban. Perhaps the most unnoticed place is the Tianyi Medicine Library. If it can¡¯t be found again, it would be a pity that the Tianyi Group has spent so much effort. The Tianyi Medicine Library will always be deeply Hiding here, it will be a pity that the medicine will lose all its effectiveness in a few hundred years" As he spoke, Song Hao fell asleep.
I don¡¯t know when, ¡°bang bang¡±, several crisp gunshots suddenly came out, waking up Song Hao and Tang Yu from their sleep. Not knowing what happened, I grabbed a flashlight and went out to check.
When they met Zhou Jun head-on, Zhou Jun said: "It's okay, it's okay, just go back and sleep. A pack of wolves came outside the castle. We fired a few shots to shock the wolves, so that the wolves knew we had weapons and retreated. Otherwise, I will spend the night outside."
"Wolves!" Song Hao was surprised when he heard this: "Are there really wolves here?"
Zhou Jun said: ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, just go and have a look!¡±
Song Hao and Tang Yu immediately came to the high earth and stone wall of the Karen Castle. There were two expedition members on duty with guns standing on it. They were the ones who fired just now. Nothing could be seen in the dark night, except that countless fireflies were flashing around the Karen Citadel.
However, when Song Hao and Tang Yu took a closer look, they discovered to their horror that those flashing fireflies turned out to be countless pairs of dim green wolf eyes. They were everywhere, forming a circle and surrounding them. Karen's earthen fort was surrounded by people. It's just that there is a thick wall of earth and stone blocking the way, preventing the wolves from jumping in. Fortunately, the expedition team lived in this Karen mud fort. If they camped in the wild, it would be difficult to resist the ferocious wild wolves in the Gobi Altai Mountains, unless it was a fully armed army.
Song Hao took a breath of air and said in shock: "With so many wolves, how can we dare to enter the Death Canyon to carry out work tomorrow?"
A member of the team on duty smiled and said: "The wolves in this mountainous area generally do not come out during the day and are afraid of guns. Now that they know our strength, they will disperse after a while. Even if they go to work in the mountains, as long as they are in Choose a safe place to camp at night, and the wolves won¡¯t sneak up on us.¡±
"Oh! That's good!" Song Hao felt relieved.
Sure enough, the wolves outside the castle were shaken by the sound of gunfire. After several wolf kings howled to each other and conveyed a dangerous message to each other, they gradually dispersed. There were wise men among the wolves, who knew how terrifying humans with weapons were, so they retreated and attacked a herd of wild sheep ten miles away. That was the news from a herdsman who passed by Kalon Fort a few days later. More than a hundred wild sheep were besieged overnight by a pack of wolves several times their size. In just an hour, their flesh and blood were eaten away, and even their fur was gone, leaving only white bones all over the field.
Song Hao returned to the room and couldn't sleep all night. He began to feel the weirdness here. From the gleaming green eyes of the wolves, Song Hao began to feel an indescribable terror. It seemed that the eyes of the wolves had been staring at him these days, and from time to time he could It gave me an inexplicable chill.
As the sky started to get slightly brighter, the expedition team began preparations to enter the Gobi Altai Mountains. There are no roads in the mountains, so you have to hike in and work in Death Canyon for at least a week. Wang Feng left two team members to garrison the Karen Citadel to guard the vehicles and some supplies and equipment. The other thirty-one people will all enter the Death Canyon to search for the heavenly medicine storehouse. - Didn't finish reading?
