Chapter 179 The KGB and the CIA (16)

Returning to the East Street where they flew into in the early morning, Tang Feng noticed at this time that the city wall on the east side was low when it was first built, or because it was invaded by hundreds of years, it looked obviously higher than those in other places. The city wall is much lower, and the low wall they drove past in the early morning is considered the shortest section.

"What should we do now?" Tang Feng looked at Han Jiang in a daze.

"You ask me? I don't know, it's getting dark, we have to find a place to spend the night!" Han Jiang's eyes were absently looking at the rammed earth wall not far away.

"I suggest staying in the car at night!" Liang Yuan seemed to have recovered from the excessive fright just now.

"Nonsense, even if we live in the car, we have to think about where we park the car?" Han Jiang said.

"We can't drive the car to the Gobi Desert, otherwise it will be troublesome when there is a sandstorm at night. I think there are two places to choose from now, one is the place where we stayed overnight, and the other is in front of the gate of the government office on North Street." Tang Feng analyzed.

After listening to Tang Feng's words, Han Jiang smiled wryly and shook his head, "The two places are not very good, one is in the middle of this dead city, God knows what will happen at night, mummy? Monster? Or our old friends? The other There are also many corpses beside the place, and what's more terrible, Tang Feng, haven't you discovered it yet? We are now trapped in this dead city."

Tang Feng immediately understood Han Jiang's meaning, "Yes, in the early morning we flew in to avoid the sandstorm, but we searched all over the city, only the south gate was blocked by molten iron; if we want to get out now, we have to go through The low wall in the east is flying out, but when flying in, the inside is the East Street, which is flat ground, and now the Jingguan is outside the wall, and the donkey will hit the Jingguan..."

"Damn it, we're actually trapped in this small town. It's useless even if we can go out. If we want to continue going deep into the desert, we have to have a car. If we bump into Jingguan outside the city, the consequences will be disastrous!" Han Jiang looked at the Beijing Temple outside the east wall and shook his head.

Only then did Liang Yuan realize the seriousness of the problem, but she quickly turned her worries into joy, "You two big men are so stupid, and the low wall to the east is not high. I think there are some ancient buildings in the city. Tools, we brought a shovel in the car, let's level this low wall together!"

"Don't be wild, look at this low wall is not high, but this wall is made of rammed earth, very hard, it is difficult to level this wall with our existing tools!" Tang Feng retorted .

Han Jiang thought about it for a while, but he was very interested in Liang Yuan's idea, "Liang Yuan's idea is not impossible, the key is that it takes time, and today is definitely too late. I think we will live in front of the government office tonight, early tomorrow morning Just go dig that low wall, by the way, our fierce donkey has been parked there, there will be no problem!"

Han Jiang's words immediately lifted everyone's hearts, and the three of them hurried back to the gate of the official office on North Street, seeing the donkey parked there intact, everyone let go of their suspense.

Han Jiang was still worried. After checking the inside and outside of the car, Liang Yuan said nonchalantly, "Don't be so nervous. There is no one alive in this place. Who will lay hands on our car?"

"I don't feel good! And...and that gunshot!" Han Jiang muttered to himself as he started the car.

Seeing that the car was fine, Han Jiang jumped out of the car again. At this time, Tang Feng suddenly got under the car, picked up something from under the car, and waved it in front of Han Jiang's eyes, "Is this your guy?"

"My guy?" Han Jiang was startled, and after a closer look, he realized that Tang Feng was holding a sharp dagger in his hand.

"Dagger?!" Liang Yuan called out.

Han Jiang was also very surprised, and quickly touched his boots. His dagger was still there, "My dick is still in the boots, it's still there!"

"That's strange, this dagger is very similar to yours, almost exactly the same." Tang Feng handed the dagger to Han Jiang.

Han Jiang took the dagger, looked at it carefully for a while, seemed to be in deep thought, and after a long time, he said in amazement: "It is indeed very similar, although it is not the same model, but I am basically sure that it is from the same manufacturer as my dagger. Produced, even made by the same master.”

"But yours is a military dagger!" Tang Feng was startled.

"Well, my military daggers are a batch of special-made daggers, and the number of production is very small. The dagger you picked up should be the same as mine. It is also a batch of special-made daggers, and the number is also very small. Generally, it is only equipped with special forces, and it is almost impossible for others to get it. But in this desolate desert Gobi, such a dagger suddenly appeared..." Han Jiang did not continue.

Tang Feng's eyes lit up, "It can't be from other troops, that is to say, this dagger probably came from Old K, but Old K has already announced his disbandment."

"But old K's people are still there." Han Jiang suddenly said calmly.

Tang Feng trembled all over, and he immediately understood Han Jiang's meaning, "You suspect that someone from Old K is also here, just around here, even in this dead city."

Tang Feng's words made Liang Yuan look around in shock. The sun had already set, and the darkness was about to cover this dead city on the Gobi Desert. The dead streets, the dead houses, and the dead ancient town, apart from them, no one could see Any creature, any plant, any living thing, unless...unless those mummies are resurrected.

"Who could it be?" Tang Feng and Liang Yuan blurted out almost at the same time.

Han Jiang thought for a while, "The most likely is Zhao Yong or someone under him. But..."

"But what?" Tang Feng was puzzled.

"Tang Feng, have you ever thought, if Zhao Yong is here, can't he see us? Why didn't he show up? And... and why did this dagger appear under our car? What should we do? How about an explanation?" Han Jiang's series of rhetorical questions made Tang Feng overthinking.

"This..." Tang Feng pondered.

Han Jiang continued: "If it was Zhao Yong, he wouldn't have to play hide-and-seek with us, let alone throw the dagger under our car on purpose."

Tang Feng nodded, and asked again, "Then this dagger appeared under our car, how should we explain it?"

"Let's exclude Zhao Yong first, let's talk about the person who put the dagger under the car. What is the motive of this person? If it is for intimidation, the dagger should be inserted in a conspicuous place, such as the front cover of the car, or in the cab. But he didn't do that." Han Jiang hesitated to speak.

"That's right, the dagger was lying under the car just now, without any motive!" Tang Feng said.

"There is another situation, which is exactly what we were worried about just now. Someone is going to destroy our car!" Han Jiang said.

"Destroy the car, and smash the tires of the donkey!" Liang Yuan screamed again, leaning over to check the tires.

"Don't worry about it. I checked everything just now. All the tires are in good condition. If our tire is really punctured, it will be a real trouble in this desert!" Han Jiang said with a wry smile.

"It's neither intimidating nor sabotaging, so what is this person doing?" Tang Feng was puzzled.

Han Jiang was also lost in thought, and finally had to shake his head, "There are so many strange things in this place, and I really can't figure out why this dagger appears here. But one thing is for sure, if this dagger didn't come from the three of us , then there must be a fourth person here!"

"The fourth person?!" Although Tang Feng was prepared for this, when Han Jiang said this sentence with certainty, Tang Feng's heart still dropped suddenly.

Han Jiang gave Tang Feng the dagger for self-defense. The tent was gone, and the three of them could only sleep in the car. Han Jiang and Tang Feng were on duty respectively. Before going to bed, Han Jiang gave special advice to Tang Feng and Liang Yuan , you are only allowed to stay in the car, and you are not allowed to go anywhere, especially you are not allowed to enter the gate of the official office opposite.

Everything was normal in the first half of the night. In the early hours of the morning, Tang Feng replaced Han Jiang on duty. Han Jiang soon fell asleep next to Tang Feng, shouting loudly. Tang Feng rubbed his sleepy eyes and stared at the opened gate of the Yuan Dynasty official office in front of him. , Thinking of those identical rooms inside the gate, Tang Feng became entangled in his heart. What secrets are hidden there?A revived mummy, or a ferocious monster?Or is it the "fourth person" that Han Jiang said?
Thinking about it, Tang Feng opened the car door and jumped out of the car. He walked up the stairs in front of the gate of the official office slowly with mechanical steps. When he walked up to the last step, Tang Feng stopped and stretched He straightened his neck and looked into the door. It was pitch black, and the dilapidated building exuded a strange atmosphere. There seemed to be something inside that was attracting Tang Feng. However, as soon as Tang Feng took a step, Han Jiang's advice and Misha's experience came to the fore. In Tang Feng's mind, Tang Feng trembled all over, and retracted the legs he had stepped forward.

Tang Feng stood in front of the gate of the official office in a daze. After a long time, he turned around and looked at the whole city. The whole town of Qianhu was dead silent. There was no light or sound. nothing?Tang Feng was suspicious, and looked further away. The South Gate tower was shrouded in darkness, and outside the city gate was the boundless Gobi Desert...Suddenly, Tang Feng felt that there seemed to be a little light shining on the South Gate tower, but that The faint light is fleeting.

Tang Feng rubbed his sleepy eyes vigorously, then looked towards the South Gate Tower, there was indeed a little light shining in the Tower, the light was very faint, faintly swaying on the South Gate Tower, Tang Feng felt his heartbeat began to speed up, what is that?Is it a will-o'-the-wisp lit by countless mummies in the city?Or the mysterious fourth person?

Tang Feng still couldn't believe what he saw in front of him. He was afraid that it was the unjust soul of countless mummies in the city. He was afraid that the stars on the tower of the South Gate would ignite into a raging fire in an instant with a "bang" and burn the entire South Gate. The gate tower illuminates the entire dead city, illuminates the entire Gobi desert, and then, inside the city, outside the city, and even in the depths of the Gobi desert, the mummified corpses, bones, and wandering ghosts are resurrected together, surrounding the entire Qianhu Town, surrounding them, Surround yourself and your beloved Liang Yuan.

No!He wanted to get back to the car quickly, wake up Liang Yuan and Han Jiang, leave here, leave this ghost town that exudes the breath of death everywhere... However, as soon as Tang Feng took a step, he suddenly felt that his feet and calves were covered by something. He caught it, and he looked down, and it turned out to be a pair of hands, a pair of dry, shriveled, bloodless, lifeless hands. They were the arms of a mummy. Tang Feng was shocked. At this moment, the South Gate Tower The light of the stars on the sky instantly turned into a raging fire, and the fire that soared into the sky was so bright and blazing, illuminating the entire dead city, the entire desert Gobi!

Tang Feng widened his fearful eyes and stared straight at the fire on the tower. He suddenly felt that the fire symbolized light and gave birth to life. Tang Feng seemed to be attracted by the raging fire and forgot to grab the mummy holding his legs , he wanted to stretch his legs, but instead of going back to the car, he wanted to go to the south gate tower.

The hands of the mummy firmly grasped Tang Feng, Tang Feng did not look back, and kicked away the hands of the mummy, but as soon as Tang Feng took a step, another pair of withered and shriveled arms firmly grabbed his calf, and then Another pair, two pairs, three pairs, four pairs... Tang Feng's waist, Tang Feng's arms, Tang Feng's shoulders, and Tang Feng's neck were all grabbed by the terrifying hands of the mummy.

Anger, nervousness, fear, and anxiety filled Tang Feng's heart. He felt that he was about to collapse. He wanted to call out to Han Jiang who was still sleeping soundly in the car, but he couldn't make a sound. Suddenly, Tang Feng saw the South Street, East Street, and West Street are surrounded by countless resurrected mummies. No, there are more and more mummies gathered on the city walls and on the roofs of houses, and they have completely surrounded the three of them. Tang Feng struggled Turning his head, there was a ferocious face behind him, and the black eyes were staring at him. Tang Feng found that more and more mummified corpses were pouring out of the gate of the government office...

Tang Feng closed his eyes, he didn't dare to look at everything in front of him again, he was waiting for the verdict of fate, the arrival of death, but Liang Yuan's screams and cries woke him up, Tang Feng opened his eyes again, he saw Liang Yuan was surrounded by a group of mummified corpses, crying and screaming... No, Tang Feng struggled with all his might. He wanted to rush to Liang Yuan's side, but the arms of the mummified corpses wrapped around him were getting closer and closer. More and more, more and more tight, Tang Feng completely collapsed, he felt that he was going to lose Liang Yuan forever, he yelled, this time he finally yelled "No, Yuanyuan..."

Tang Feng's cry woke up Han Jiang and Liang Yuan, "Damn it, I finally got a good night's sleep and you woke me up!" Han Jiang cursed.

Tang Feng opened his eyes and found that he was sweating profusely and was still sitting in the car. He wiped the bean-sized beads of sweat from his forehead. Could it be that he had a dream just now?But everything is so clear, as if I experienced it myself!
"What's wrong with you?" Liang Yuan asked Tang Feng with concern.

"No, it's nothing. But... maybe..." Tang Feng was still in shock.

"What's wrong with him, let him be on duty at night, but fell asleep! The point is that this kid also had a nightmare, in which he called your name, Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan!" Han Jiang exaggeratedly pretended to be nasty look.

Liang Yuan's face was flushed by what Han Jiang said, Tang Feng turned his head to look at Liang Yuan, and leaned heavily on the back of the chair, "Yes, I may have had a nightmare just now, but everything is so clear , so true, I have to believe that it is all true.”

"What nightmare?" Liang Yuan asked curiously.

Tang Feng sighed softly, "The South Gate tower was on fire, and all the mummified corpses in the city were resurrected."

"Ah! What an interesting dream!" Liang Yuan seemed very interested in Tang Feng's nightmare.

"Fortunately, it's interesting, it almost scared me to death!" Tang Feng yelled angrily, and then recalled his nightmare.

"The resurrection of the mummified corpse? The raging fire? It's really interesting!" Han Jiang laughed.

"Damn, you guys can still be serious!" After Tang Feng said this, he realized that the sky seemed to be a little brighter. Tang Feng desperately recalled everything that happened in the early morning, including that terrible nightmare. If it was indeed a nightmare, Then I fell asleep not long after I was on duty at night, and now it was almost dawn, how could this nightmare last so long?
Tang Feng couldn't believe all this. He felt that the car was a bit stuffy, so he opened the door and jumped out of the car. The front door of the government office was the same as what he saw yesterday. Streets, silent houses, the only high point in the south is the city tower, which still stands quietly on the city gate, dilapidated and desolate, just like it has been for more than 700 years, unchanged from ancient times!

There is no raging fire rising into the sky, and there are not even bits and pieces of light. Everything is so quiet, so dead, and the whole city tower smells of decay and death. It seems that I really had a nightmare, Han Jiang He and Liang Yuan also jumped out of the car, looked around, and finally their gazes also stopped on the tower at the south gate.Just then, they heard a dull gunshot.

7
Yes, this time Tang Feng, Han Jiang, and Liang Yuan all heard the gunshot. The three of them looked at each other in surprise, and then all focused their eyes on the south gate tower, "Where did the gunshot come from?" .” Han Jiang was the first to judge based on years of experience.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan also immediately realized that the gunshots were coming from the South Gate Tower. It was not yet bright, and the distance was too far to see the situation above. Han Jiang stared at the South Gate Tower in the twilight. , suddenly slapped the front cover of the donkey's car, and said loudly: "Get in the car, go there and have a look."

"It seems that my nightmare is not completely groundless!" Tang Feng said, and jumped into the car with Liang Yuan.

Han Jiang reversed the car skillfully, then slammed on the accelerator, and rushed straight from North Street and South Street to the South Gate Tower. When the car was approaching the South Gate, Han Jiang deliberately slowed down the car. He didn't want the roar of the engine to disturb the mysterious first four people!

When Han Jiang parked the donkey under the south gate smoothly, the surroundings were silent, and the sky was gradually getting brighter. The three of them got out of the car on tiptoe. The dilapidated south gate was opened as it was seen yesterday. The gate, inside is the urn city full of mummified corpses. The gate of the urn city is blocked by earth and stone walls, making it airtight.

Tang Feng put his arms around Liang Yuan and covered Liang Yuan's eyes. He didn't want Liang Yuan to see the horrible scene again. The three of them stood still in the middle of the Wengcheng, but they didn't find anything unusual. Han Jiang looked up at the door at the south gate. Tower, whispered: "Now we have to go up."

"But yesterday we didn't see the stairs to the tower." Tang Feng replied in a low voice.
