Chapter 68 The Gate of Hell

After following Jin Siniang, she gave four foreigners who were ignorant of the world and helped them to relieve the power of the secret nectar wine through their urine, the sound of the bus horn urging sounded in the backyard of the restaurant.

Getting off the bus, I had already arrived at an empty wasteland in the suburbs with everyone. As soon as I shook my hands and feet and moved my muscles, there was a sound of propellers from the helicopter "da da da da da" above my head.

Huaxia Group is indeed well-invested. One of the three helicopters specially transported equipment. When I stepped forward, I saw that everything from various golden needles and candles, to rope flashlights, dry food and beverages, medicine blood bags, even Type 56 submachine guns and hand grenades, and equipment supplies were really available.

"Don't worry." Hua Ying, who had already changed into military uniform, opened her eyes when she saw me, took a step forward, touched a Type 5-4 pistol, skillfully put the bullets on it, and debugged it neatly. After handing it to me, she smiled at me kindly:

"Weapons are specially applied by the group for archaeological exploration, so try to bring them as much as possible."

Seeing me nodding, I silently turned off the gun's safety, put it on my waist, and turned around and selected some scalpels and medicines. Huaying stepped closer and patted my shoulder, and suggested to me:

"Young man, you'd better bring more weapons to defend yourself." After saying that, without waiting for my response, he walked into the middle of the team with a skillful step, and made a melodious voice and announced to everyone.

"Everyone follows my command. In order to facilitate dispatching, take into account safety and your expertise, I want to divide the team into two groups, five leaders and captains of the Eagle. Do you have any good suggestions..."

Judging from Huaying's meaning, Huaxia Group has really developed a standardized process in its archaeological expedition.

In particular, in terms of team configuration, each team has roles such as ghost descending, engineers, mechanics, Feng Shui and support. As the soul figure who takes charge of the overall situation, the team leader must not only be able to plan and lead the crowd, but also play the functional role of a team.

Specifically, these functions are:

Ghost surrender - As the name suggests, its role in the team is mainly responsible for dealing with zombies and souls that have become spirits and make trouble. It is generally a capable person with a deep knowledge of Taoism. This is why Huaying had to spend a lot of money to invite the five sect families of Taoist people in Moshan.

Engineers - as expressed in literal meaning, mainly take on the task of digging holes in the team. Of course, related physical work is also unavoidable. In addition, they are also responsible for using hot and cold weapons to participate in some practical combat operations. Therefore, Huaying used the internal relations of the group to transfer a team of elite commandos from the North American region.

Feng Shui - responsible for planning routes and formulating plans, including finding dragons and setting a hole in the general direction and precisely positioning the tomb location. It is a role that integrates and analyzes the situation and on-site dispatch, which is equivalent to the brain of the team. It is generally a veteran or a genius with clear minds.

Jihuo - a type of person who specializes in cracking the tomb mechanism. According to Huaying, she had considered finding the successor of Faqiu Zhonglang to do this job before, but the other party raised the price and temporarily raised the appearance fee, which made her unable to swallow this, so she gritted her teeth and abandoned the option on the road.

Support - suitable for "generalist" characters who are familiar with various profession functions. Generally, as the chief alternate for a specific functional role, assist teammates to play a better role when needed, or fill in the gaps after a specific functional role accidentally falls. This consideration is indeed a very stable and reliable strategy from the perspective of safety and emergency.

"Wait! Mr. Hua! Isn't there a 'team doctor' set up in the team?" I finally heard Hua Ying explain the team configuration plan and habitually wanted to find her position. But after Hua Ying explained the precautions, she picked up the weapons and supplies on her own. I was so anxious that I couldn't help but stand up and call her, and expressed my own opinion.

"Oh, didn't you look at the contract carefully when you came? Our group is not ordinary archaeological activities, and we often encounter fatal dangers in the operations. Although there are medical supplies in the equipment options, according to my experience, if you really encounter trouble, it is too late to treat it."

After saying that, this arrogant woman actually threw a bright and charming look at me, as if saying: "We don't welcome amateurs!"

Damn! I should have thought of it from the beginning! Such a big guy-gathering project must be much higher than the two adventures I had experienced before! The problem is, my original intention was not to participate in the "Lama". I just wanted to find an opportunity to ask Lei Datong what he knew about the information that might be related to Axia's departure!

Should you consider quitting?

Oh no! When I complained that I didn’t have the chance to ask Lei Datong for advice, Hua Ying, a decisive woman, had already given the final list under the advice of several leaders.

Alpha group (or group a, whatever):

Team leader: Hong Li (also served as the ghost surrender).

Ghost Surrender: Lei Datong.

Feng Shui: Huang Yong-kang.

Engineer: eagle, white bear.

Jihuo: Tu Shaozhong, Hong Linfeng.

Support: Black second.

Wow~ As expected, the Hong family is indeed the leader of the five major sects. Hua Ying also valued Hong Li, who was the leader of the head of the family, and without any suspense, let him be the leader of the team. Wait, how is this distributed? The five leaders, one team occupied four?! It is obvious that the strength is unevenly distributed!

And what surprised me was that the two younger generations of Tu Shaozhong and Hong Linfeng, Hua Ying and the heads, actually let them take the important task of taking on the opportunity! Alas, Mr. Hua, are you really because you didn’t hire Faqiu Zhonglang, and no one is available?

Next, the beta group (group b?) where I am a half-baked person:

Team leader: Huaying (she did not disclose what she did).

Ghost Surrender: Jin Si Niang.

Feng Shui: Mu Weiwei.

Engineer: Black Panther, I.

Jihua: wild cat, tiger.

Support: Water is like clouds.

Well, depending on the configuration, except for the team leader and ghost descending, the other people are obviously better than the substitute lineup when compared with the first team!

Even the important function of the treasure hunting - Jiduo, was assigned to two foreigners who fell to the ground with a bottle of nectar and jade liquid! Mr. Hua, are you drunk too much? Are you going to be the two laymen here to drag us down?

The most important thing is! How did I become an engineer? In terms of body shape, the Ramen of Wild Cat obviously has better strength than me! And the key is, why do we have to be with the Black Panther's Thousand-Sword Talker! Do you think the calluses in my ears and eyes are not thick enough!

This lineup arrangement is really amazing.

...

It's useless to complain.

When I got on the helicopter, amid the continuous noise of the propeller, I secretly thanked that I didn't have to listen to the harassment of the black panther. As soon as I saw him, I immediately made an excuse to not be able to hear him speak clearly, so I decisively learned from Jin Siniang, Mu Weiwei and others, closed my eyes and calmed my spirit and nourished my energy. After all, nothing unexpected happened, after getting off the ground, I would have the opportunity to get tired of my legs and feet. It would be better to learn from the good and seize the opportunity to maintain my spirit.

There was nothing to say along the way. The eight people from our second team took the military-modified civilian Mi-17 helicopter painted with the Huaxia Group logo for more than three hours and finally landed in a deserted hill. After landing, the group changed to a team of Toyota Domino off-road vehicles on the ground. After bumping in the roadless mountains for more than half a day, they finally arrived at this beautiful water and grass and beautiful scenery, just like the paradise outside the border that I had the honor of witnessing in the Old Mountain Village.

Just looking at this quiet and beautiful scenery, no one can believe that this is the "Gate of Hell" located in the Death Valley of Kunlun Mountains.

Speaking of this "Gate of Hell" with a fantasy name, I just went online to check the anecdotes and legends related to this ghost place when there was a signal on the mobile data network.

According to legend, the valley in front of me was shrouded in mist and the flowers were suddenly separated from the surrounding deserted Gobi Desert. It is the valley of Death in Kunlun Mountain, known as the "Gate of Hell".

It is said that the valley is covered with wolf fur, bear bones, occasionally there are steel guns left by lost hunters and lonely graves. These strange embellishments all exude a gloomy and scary atmosphere of death to the world.

As the saying goes, "The sky is vast and the wilderness is vast. When the wind blows the grass low, cattle and sheep can be seen." In the eyes of ordinary herders, a place with abundant grass and water is their paradise for grazing. However, in recent years, shepherds who have lived in Kunlun Mountain would rather starve the cattle and sheep to death on the Gobi Desert because there is no fat grass to eat, than to enter the ancient and silent valley of death with lush grass in Kunlun Mountain.

Why?

It is rumored that in 1983, a group of horses from the Aral Ranch in Qinghai Province accidentally entered the Death Valley because of greed for fat grass in the valley. A herder accompanied him was unwilling to bear the losses for nothing, and despite the dissuasion of his companions, he ventured into the valley alone to find the horses.

As a result, after a few days, the man did not come back, but the horses appeared at the entrance of the valley. Later, when the body was found on a hill, his clothes were broken, his feet were bare, his eyes wide open, his mouth wide, and his hunting rifle was still in his hand, looking like he was dying with his eyes open. What was most puzzling was that no scars or traces of attack were found on his body.

It seemed as if it was a curse that died, and its soul was broken and left its body.

However, the disaster has not subsided. Shortly after the tragedy, a geological team working nearby was also attacked by a death storm.

It was July of the same year. Just when it was still hot outside, a blizzard suddenly broke out near Death Valley. A deafening roar of thunder came suddenly with the blizzard. The cooks who were staying in the camp fainted on the spot.

According to the recollection of the cook who survived by chance, when he heard the thunder, he felt numb and his eyes turned black, and then he lost consciousness. When the rescuers who arrived rescued him, everyone was surprised to find that the gray-yellow Gobi outside the camp had turned into scorched earth all over the ground, like ashes. Within a radius of several miles, all the animals and plants that were within their eyes had been "shot" by thunderstorms.

Subsequently, the geological team quickly organized a scientific research team to search the valley on a sunny day. During the exploration, it was found that the magnetic field anomalies in the area were extremely obvious and the distribution range was very wide. The deeper the valley, the higher the magnetic field outlier. Under the influence of the electromagnetic field effect, the charges in the clouds and the magnetic field in the valleys acted, causing charge discharge, making this place a mined area, and lightning often targeted running animals as the targets of attack.

This speculation is also the best explanation for several events that occur continuously.
