In the early morning of midsummer, Yongxing City.

The ancient door of the Cultural Relics Management Office opened in a series of heavy creaking sounds!

A medium-sized, national-shaped face, sword-shaped eyebrows, thin lips, and a flat-headed guy with a slightly thin body jumped gently, stepped out of the threshold full of vicissitudes, and began a routine ten-mile morning jog every day, and he was Li Fei!

Li Fei has worked in the Cultural Relics Management Office for three years and is still a "three-no" person: no house, no car, no deposit, and the Cultural Relics Management Office is his home.

I dare not say anything else in the Cultural Relics Management Office, but there are still many books, mainly books related to archaeology. Li Fei was fascinated by it at a glance. In addition to making too little money, it was a really good job.

For the need of learning, Li Fei not only likes to read domestic literature, but also often searches for original documents from countries around the world.

When Li Fei was holding an ancient book and was fascinated by reading it, the voice of deputy director Tian Qing came from "Little Li Zi, come to my office."

Li Fei quickly put down the book, walked into Tian Qing's office gently, and stood aside waiting for Tian Qing's further instructions.

Tian Qing took a sip of tea, leaned against the boss's chair, and said happily: "There is a task. Recently, the masses reported that a tomb robber was digging an ancient tomb near the east side of Tanggula Mountain. We need to organize a rescue excavation. You can contact the local cultural relics management office and write a report. It should be fast!"

Li Fei immediately left Tian Qing's office, pulled the door up, and returned to his desk to prepare for the report and confirmation of relevant information.

Three days later, a team led by Tian Qing was established. Jia Chongzhi, a senior expert in the cultural relics and archaeology department, Li Fei and driver Zhao Ming, a total of four people.

The next morning, a four-person team drove a truck and left. Not to mention the bumps and hardships along the way, they encountered a lot of troubles in the middle, and the tires were punctured twice. However, everyone had already predicted these difficulties before departure, so Zhao Ming would handle them.

During a break, Li Fei saw that Jia Lao and Tian Qing were having a happy chat, and took the opportunity to ask: "Lady Jia, do you think it might be an ancient tomb of the Yuan Dynasty this time?" Because this place is extremely remote and the Yuan Dynasty has been active in this area in history, Li Fei asked for it with certainty.

"Xiao Li's idea makes sense, but it's hard to say if you don't go to the scene to see it. Just from the geographical location, there shouldn't be any tombs of important people in this place." Jia Lao said with a smile.

After dealing with the failure of the car, the group continued to board the road.

At noon, the group finally arrived in Gemu County. The local Lao He received everyone. After further understanding the situation, he decided to rest for an afternoon, prepare some necessary items, and then go to the on-site inspection the next day.

There was nothing to say overnight, everyone got up early, cleaned up and officially started. Today, the team grew stronger. In addition to the original four-person team, there were two more: Lao He and a young man Song He.

Two hours later, the group arrived at a small village called Wangyue. There were only a dozen families in this village, and there was nothing special about it, and there was nothing that matched the name of the village. It was just that it was said that it was called this name.

At the entrance of the village, the two villagers' guides had been waiting for a long time, leading four very strong yaks. They had to rely on them to travel tools and supplies for the road behind.

Everyone briefly introduced that the two guides turned out to be two brothers, the elder brother was called Xiangshan and the younger brother was called Xianghe. This time they found someone digging an ancient tomb. Under Li Fei's command, they began to carry the luggage and tools, and then tied them all to the back of the yak and headed into the mountains.

After more than an hour, although the road was quite difficult, with the two brothers leading the way, there were no major twists and turns, and everyone arrived at their destination smoothly.

After some preliminary checks, everyone's faces were not very good-looking. I was running all the way, and it was already noon. Everyone was tired and hungry, so I was ready to solve the problem of food and clothing first, and then consider the next step of action.

After lunch, Tian Qing was the first to break the silence and asked Mr. Jia: "What do you think? How likely is it to have an ancient tomb here?"

Mr. Jia slowly gnawed a piece of bread, looked at the mountain peak, and said nothing for a long time. After finishing the bread, he stood up and said something irrelevant: "This mountain peak is very strange, as if the top of the peak was cut off in plain sight."

Everyone was a little surprised at first, but soon they understood that because the mountain had no peaks, the terrain here was not good, which means that there was a high possibility of no ancient tomb. As soon as the topic was opened, everyone started talking, and they all thought that Mr. Jia’s statement made sense.

After some discussion, everyone was a little depressed because anyone who ran so far finally found that it was probably in vain that they would not be in good mood.

At the critical moment, Tian Qing was still calm and clapped his hands and said, "Don't be discouraged. Since you are here, you must check it carefully. Maybe there will be other gains. Besides, tomb robbers are not stupid. You will have some confidence if you can dig here."

After Tian Qing said this, everyone's enthusiasm was mobilized again, because the powerful tomb robbers are no worse than professional archaeologists, and they will not be aimless.

Then, everyone started to take action. As young people, Li Fei and Song He divided the most important work into the cave and explored it first!

The two were fully armed: oxygen meter, helmet, gas mask, headlight, flashlight, walkie-talkie, ventilation hose, rescue rope, camera, small shovel, etc.

Just as Li Fei and Song He were about to enter the thief hole, the sky suddenly darkened. From when it opened, dark clouds swept through the clear sky before! The low dark clouds pressed on everyone's hearts, which made people depressed and irritable...

In order to find out the situation as soon as possible, under the blessing of everyone, Li Fei and Song He entered the dark thieves one after another!

The hole tilted downwards, but it was not difficult to walk. Li Fei speculated that the strength of this group of tomb robbers should be good, otherwise the hole would not be so spacious. The two of them fumbled and walked dozens of feet, but still couldn't see the end.

After walking about ten feet further, Li Fei suddenly raised his hand to stop moving forward, and said nervously: "There is something! Several feet ahead, there seems to be a hole on the left wall of the hole, and there is also a piece of arm stretching out outside the hole!"

Song He rushed a few steps, stood side by side with Li Fei, and also shone a flashlight, exclaiming: "Someone is indeed lying on the ground! He is still holding a Luoyang shovel in his hand!"

After understanding the situation through the walkie-talkie, Tian Qing instructed: "Please further verify the situation. If there is any danger, withdraw immediately!"

Song He moved back a little tremblingly, shouting guiltily: "Is there anyone inside? Please answer when you hear it!" As a result, except for the dull echo, there was no reaction... Because the space inside the thief cave was small and the strange atmosphere, Li Fei and Song He felt a little chest tightness...

After a while, Li Fei saw that there was no reaction, he exhaled a long breath and said cautiously: "Song He, for safety, we must keep a distance of about a meter between us to facilitate timely retreat, and pay attention to the oxygen meter instructions!"

Song He nervously wiped his sweat and panted, "Okay!...I will pay attention. You must be more careful in front of you..."

The two walked forward carefully several feet. Li Fei found that there was indeed another thief hole, a man in a green top, lying face down on the ground!

Li Fei called out a few times, and when he saw that the other party had no response, he looked with his hands and found that the person had been dead for a long time and his body was stiff!

At this time, Song He also rushed over from behind, and seemed not as scared as before. He turned the man over with the handle of the shovel and suddenly exclaimed: "Uh!...Diet with your eyes open!"

Li Fei clenched his fists and interrupted, "Don't make a fuss! Everyone is dead, what's scary! We are doing archaeology and we have seen too many dead people."

Song He still said in a panic: "I'm not afraid of this dead person, but speculate... speculate that he had seen something extremely terrible..."

After a while of silence, Li Fei briefly reported the situation and sighed: "Those who do our business must be curious in addition to being curious, they must also be bold! We should believe in science. Even if there are things that science cannot explain, it is just because science has not yet developed to that point."

Song He said a little embarrassedly: "I heard you say the word 'science', and suddenly I felt full of strength and I was not afraid of anything! Let's go, let's continue!"

Li Fei nodded, discussed with Song He for a while, ignored the hole on the side, and continued to explore straight forward.

The two of them didn't go far and discovered something strange. The hole was no longer excavated in a straight line, but was digging in an arc to the left!

After moving forward for a while, a strange guess formed in Li Fei's mind: "For some reason, the tomb robber started from the fork and did not dig in a straight line, but digged in circles! Finally, the word 'q' was formed!"

Thinking of this possibility, Li Fei was shocked and sweated, but he did not tell Song He what he thought. The two of them gritted their teeth and continued to explore.

A moment later, Li Fei found that a half-foot-long crack appeared on the wall on the right not far ahead.

It is not surprising that there are cracks in the robber's hole, because although the hole dug by the tomb robber is relatively large, it is also bumpy, so Li Fei didn't care.

But when passing through the crack, Li Fei suddenly felt a small wind blowing over. He shone it with his headlight and found that there was a relatively large space inside. After marking it, he continued to explore along the cave with Songhe.

As the exploration progressed, the subsequent route completely fulfilled Li Fei's guess, and a group of unlucky tomb robbers really dug out the word "q"!

The meaningless circumference is a fatal circumference! Because Li Fei and Song He found four corpses in the cave, all without external injuries. Judging from the falling posture, it seemed that they died of strength and fear!

After completing the task initially, Li Fei and Song He did not dare to delay and quickly retreated. As soon as they came out, both of them were exhausted. They were nervous and their clothes were soaked. They threw the gas mask and gasped! Song He was even more uncomfortable, lying on the ground and gasping...

After resting for a while, Li Fei reported to everyone about the situation he encountered inside. Everyone decided to call the police first, let the police deal with it first, and then continue to explore the mysterious space.

As archaeologists, people who die are definitely not afraid of death, but that refers to the corpses in normal ancient tombs. Now, five tomb robbers died suddenly in the robbery cave, and the way of death is still so strange. The mysterious "q" robbery cave is full of unknown horror, so everyone is full of doubts and a little worry.

Of course, there is also something that makes everyone happy, that is, the weather has inexplicably improved and the clear sky has been restored.

After exploring this exploration, Li Fei also had his own analysis in his mind. He believed that although the deaths of the five tomb robbers just discovered were strange, at least it could be seen that they were not killed by external objects, nor were there any signs of suffocation or poisoning, which was probably due to spiritual reasons.
