Xixia dead book

Chapter 184 The KGB and the CIA (21)
That night, because I was tired, I went to bed early, but in the middle of the night, I was awakened by a strange sound. I have always been a light sleeper, as long as there is a little sound, I will wake up Finally, I was surprised to find a person standing in front of my bed. It was a Chinese. I still remember clearly that the person was wearing a khaki Chinese tunic suit and glasses. I was very surprised because several people in our tent They are experts and scholars from our country. Without our permission, how could others enter our tent in the middle of the night?Especially a Chinese?

I instinctively thought that the man had gone to the wrong tent, but the man made a gesture to me, signaling me to come out, I didn't know what to do, and coupled with the strange noise, I thought something happened, so I followed the man out of the tent.There is also a Chinese standing in the Populus euphratica forest, wearing a leather jacket and sunglasses, leaning against a Populus euphratica tree. The two cut to the chase, and directly asked me that I would cooperate with them, leaving aside the scientific expedition team. Act alone to find the treasure of Hanhai Micheng!
Their suggestions surprised me. I never thought of taking any of the treasures for myself. I asked them why they chose me?They said that because they investigated the situation of the scientific expedition team and knew that I was a young scholar who had studied Chinese history, especially Xixia characters and history, they proposed to recruit me into the group.I turned them down on the spot. The guy in the sunglasses seemed very annoyed. I saw he had a gun on his waist. I was so scared at the time. I wanted to call out but I didn't dare to call out. I thought that there were people on duty at night in the camp, but I didn't. See, are they all bought by them?Just at this moment, Makarov came out of the tent, but he was far away from me, and I dared not greet him. The man in the tunic suit was very polite to me, saying that it’s okay if he doesn’t want to cooperate, but please Don't tell anything about tonight, I promise.

You should know the rest of the story. The next day, the water was emptied, and the three Chinese officers on duty at night disappeared. I hesitated for a long time, but I still didn’t dare to tell what happened at night, because the man wearing sunglasses The guys threatened me, more importantly we are a joint scientific expedition team, this is in China again, I lacked confidence in Chinese comrades at the time, I don't know which of them is reliable and which is problematic, so ...

The purpose of my writing this letter is to hope that you can investigate these two people in China. If it is because of my cowardice that the scientific expedition team died, I will not be peaceful in this life. I hope this is not the case!I can only provide you with this information, because I am not even sure whether those two guys belong to the scientific expedition team. You also know that when we look at you, it is always easy to confuse them just like you look at us.Those two claimed to be members of the scientific expedition team, and they were dressed the same as us. But the next day, I looked for those two people in the scientific expedition team, but I never saw them. I had no impression of them before. , so I really can't confirm the true identities of those two people.

good luck!

your misha

After reading the letter written by Misha, Tang Feng, Han Jiang and Liang Yuan were all shocked. After a long time, Tang Feng murmured: "Misha finally spoke."

"Yeah, it basically matches Makarov's previous memories!" Han Jiang said in shock.

"I can't imagine how shocked grandpa will be when he reads this letter decades later!" Liang Yuan shook her head in disbelief.

"This letter contains too much information and is too important to us." Tang Feng said.

"Yes! It's very important to everyone. Because of this, Misha specially used the secret writing method!" Han Jiang said this, and suddenly thought of something, "Speaking of the secret writing method, Misha said at the beginning of the letter It is an understatement to say that he learned it from a KGB agent, and it is worth chewing on!"

"Yes, we already know that Misha was under the strict protection of the KGB for a long time, the lost 1964, Brening, Isakov, Stechkin, maybe one of them taught Mishami how to write Just like Misha once said in the Winter Palace that he learned the technique of blocking signals from KGB agents." Tang Feng immediately thought of many past events.

Han Jiang shook his head, "The KGB is well-organized, and according to the requirements, the agents are not allowed to have too close contact with the objects of surveillance and protection."

"That's why it's more suspicious." Tang Feng saw that Han Jiang seemed to be lost in thought, and after waiting for a while, he continued: "Look at the second paragraph, the most important information that Misha revealed is here——Yueerquan was there at the beginning. There was no water source, and the drinking water they carried was released, which made him suspect that the death of the scientific expedition team was also a man-made disaster."

"But I seem to remember that Makarov once said that a Chinese geological expert in the scientific expedition team said that he had visited this area before and remembered that there was a source of water here!" Han Jiang recalled.

"The water source of Yue'er Spring may have dried up just before that!" Tang Feng deduced.

"Is there no water source in the desert now?" Liang Yuan sighed.

Tang Feng waved his hand and continued: "Okay, let's ignore the water source first, and then read Misha's letter. The records in the third, fourth, and fifth paragraphs are basically consistent with Makarov's memories, but there are still many details that are old. Ma didn’t mention it. For example, when Makarov recalled about the situation of those two people, he only said that Misha and two Chinese comrades seemed to have an argument.”

"The old horse's vigilance is not good enough!" Liang Yuan said with a curl of her lips.

“It’s like what Misha said in the letter, ‘You know, we look at you as you look at us, and it’s always easy to get confused.’ When Westerners look at us, they can’t tell what we look like, and they often think that we are Chinese. , Japanese and Koreans all look the same, and we see them too! This is not surprising, not to mention that Ma was just a young soldier who had just joined the army, far from the KGB general!" Tang Feng explained.

"Misha mentioned those two guys in the letter. One was wearing a Chinese tunic suit and glasses, the other was wearing a leather jacket and sunglasses. I don't think these two guys are members of the scientific expedition team!" Han Jiang said with certainty.

"Oh! How can I see that?"

"One is Misha's own records. He didn't see those two guys again the next day, and he had no impression of them before; the other is my understanding of the scientific expedition team. The selection criteria for the test team members is very high, and under the political background at that time, those who have the idea of ​​monopolizing the treasure must not be underestimated, and the forces behind it must not be underestimated, and it is definitely not a personal whim."

After listening to Han Jiang's analysis, Tang Feng continued: "You can simply say that this is from Ma Changguo, or not."

"Yes! That's what I thought. Stephen told us before he died that Ma Changguo was the one who followed the scientific expedition team and waited for an opportunity to act, and Ma Changguo was the one who released the water for the scientific expedition team. Then I have every reason to believe that, in an attempt to win over It was also Ma Changguo who instigated Misha's rebellion, and even one of those two guys was Ma Changguo." Han Jiang talked eloquently.

"Chinese tunic suit? Or leather jacket?" Tang Feng asked Han Jiang.

Han Jiang thought for a while, "I think it should be the leather jacket with sunglasses, with a gun, and ruthless. This is Ma Changguo in his early years."

Tang Feng also nodded, "But have you noticed, why did they choose Misha? You must know that the scientific expedition team has dozens of people and experts in various fields, especially the situation of the Soviets. How can Ma Changguo grasp the situation?" ?”

"Didn't Misha say it in the letter? They investigated the situation of the scientific expedition team in advance, and knew that Misha was a young scholar who had studied Chinese history, especially Xixia characters and history, so they proposed to ask Lamisha to join the group! "

"But how can they investigate the situation of the scientific expedition team? You just said that the scientific expedition team was very tightly organized and kept secret! Ma Changguo, a secret agent of the Secret Bureau hiding in Tibet, how much can he know? The internal situation of the scientific expedition team? How did he know that Misha is a young scholar from the Soviet Union who is engaged in the study of Xixia history?"

Tang Feng's words made Han Jiang speechless for a while, and after a long while, Han Jiang slowly choked out a sentence, "The Ke... Kao... team... has... internal... traitors!"

Han Jiang's choked words silenced the three of them. After a long while, Liang Yuan asked Han Jiang back, "But all the members of the scientific expedition team are dead?"

Tang Feng and Han Jiang turned their gazes to Liang Yuan at the same time, and Liang Yuan was taken aback by them, "You...what do you mean? Do you suspect that my grandfather is a traitor?"

"No, your grandfather is also a victim." Han Jiang said.

"Then you are suspicious of Makarov?" Liang Yuan asked back.

"The old horse is not only a victim, but he is almost tempered into steel!" Tang Feng said.

"Then who are you talking about? It must be Misha!"

"Of course it can't be Misha. The traitor may have died in the desert with the scientific expedition team long ago. Judging from Misha's letter, the person wearing glasses and tunic is quite suspicious. This person seems to know the camp very well. He knows exactly which tent Misha lives in." Han Jiang said.

"There is another possibility, which is the problem with the Soviets." Tang Feng deduced.

"Well, we don't understand the situation over there. If such a big problem can occur within the KGB, the scientific expedition team is more likely to have an accident!" Han Jiang seemed to confirm Tang Feng's deduction.

"Let's ignore the traitor for now, and continue to read. In the sixth paragraph, Misha mentioned a very serious fact about the scientific expedition team back then, that is, even though it was called a joint scientific expedition team, the two sides did not know each other and did not trust each other. " Tang Feng continued to analyze.

"It's not surprising. Misha and the Soviet Union originally wanted to come to the scientific expedition unilaterally. The so-called joint scientific expedition team seems to be strong, but in fact it's just improvised. Everyone doesn't know each other and doesn't trust each other. One of the reasons why the entire scientific expedition team was annihilated." Han Jiang said.

Tang Feng nodded, "In the last paragraph, Misha asked Mr. Liang to help him investigate the whereabouts of those two guys in China. Obviously, Mr. Liang is impossible to complete this task."

The letter that Tang Feng discovered by accident helped them solve many mysteries, and it also made them toss until late at night. Liang Yuan had already fallen asleep, Han Jiang leaned on the car while taking a nap while on duty at night, Tang Feng lay in his sleeping bag, But he couldn't sleep for a long time. Half a century ago, just here, in the Populus euphratica forest just under him, how many bizarre and terrifying past events happened, which finally caused the scientific expedition team to be almost wiped out!And how many unsolved mysteries are there in the Hanhai Micheng that is getting closer and closer, so many people are haunted by her dreams!

A strange sound came, at first it was rustling, then the sound of the wind, slowly, slowly the sound of music was wrapped in the sound of the wind, the music seemed far away, Tang Feng slowly opened his eyes and listened carefully , it was very cheerful music, beautiful flute, melodious pipa, and rhythmic drum music, and it seemed that women's singing could be heard. It was such a happy scene, and Tang Feng was a little intoxicated when he heard it...

Suddenly, the music changed its tone, and Tang Feng was startled, because the music became very sad and the rhythm slowed down. Tang Feng wanted to get out of his sleeping bag to see where the music came from. But he suddenly thought that this is in the depths of the desolate Gobi desert, where is the music coming from?At this time, the sad music began to become weird, as if a ferocious monster was hiding in it, the weird music became louder and stronger, almost swallowing the sad music.

Tang Feng closed his eyes again, and listened to the music quietly. He could distinguish the direction from which the music came from, like the west of Populus euphratica forest, but he couldn't judge how far the music was from himself?

The music seemed to be getting closer. Tang Feng touched the dagger nervously. He grabbed the dagger, but found that the hand holding the dagger was trembling, and his body was trembling slightly. Tang Feng's heartbeat began to speed up, and his breathing became rapid. Gathering up his courage, he sat up abruptly and got out of his sleeping bag. In the darkness, Tang Feng held the dagger tightly and stared blankly at the direction from which the music sounded.

That's right, this weird music came from the west of the Populus euphratica forest, but Tang Feng looked west, but couldn't see any light. He didn't dare to push the flashlight away, for fear of seeing a terrible scene, the music got closer and closer, Tang Feng walked a few steps and came to the edge of the Populus euphratica forest. He supported a strangely shaped Populus euphratica and stared at the west side silently. With the help of the bright moonlight, Tang Feng looked to the west again, but there was no one there, and the sound of music seemed to be fading away. Tang Feng vaguely saw many tall sand mountains, which were strange in shape and well arranged...

Suddenly, Tang Feng felt a gust of wind behind him, as if someone was behind him, Han Jiang?Liang Yuan?Tang Feng couldn't bear to think too much, he turned around suddenly, there was no Han Jiang, nor Liang Yuan, and even their cars and sleeping bags were gone, did he walk a long way?No, the Populus euphratica forest is only that big... Just when Tang Feng was thinking wildly, the wind sounded again. It was a strange gust of wind. The wind mixed with yellow sand and rolled up the fallen leaves in the Populus euphratica forest. There are so many fallen leaves, just when Tang Feng was surprised, there was a "bang--", a bright fire light reflected the night sky red, and also illuminated the entire Populus euphratica forest. Tang Feng still didn't see Han Jiang and Liang Yuan , but saw the masked woman.

Just like what I saw on the black stone during the day, gorgeous robes, tall hats, a pair of party aristocratic women's clothes, and that strange mask shining with metallic luster!The woman walked from the depths of the Populus euphratica forest, Tang Feng felt strange, a piece of Populus euphratica forest that was insignificant in the daytime became vast and dense at this moment, the woman in the mask walked with noble steps, graceful and luxurious, with various gestures, and looked towards Tang Feng As the money came, the weird music came from the depths of the desert again, getting closer and louder, like a huge band coming from the desert.

Tang Feng's body began to tremble violently. He was surrounded by a terrifying and strange atmosphere. He retreated instinctively, but he couldn't tell the direction at all. There were Populus euphratica forests all around him. When he got out of the Populus euphratica forest, it was the even more terrifying Gobi desert. , where is there a way to retreat?At this moment, the masked woman stopped, stood five meters away from Tang Feng, and looked at Tang Feng quietly. Tang Feng leaned against a strangely shaped Populus euphratica tree. After two minutes of stalemate, the woman finally said, "Why are you afraid?"

"I... I'm not afraid!" Tang Feng pretended to be calm.

"Not afraid? Then why is your hand holding the weapon shaking?"

"Ah—" Tang Feng's heart trembled, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground. He didn't know whether to pick up the dagger that fell to the ground.

"Do I really scare you?" the masked woman asked again.

"You...are you a human, or...or a ghost?" Tang Feng asked tremblingly.

"Ghost? Haha..." The woman laughed wildly, making Tang Feng's hair stand on end. After laughing, the woman asked Tang Feng, "Do you think I am a human or a ghost?"

"You... If you are human, why are you wearing a mask?" Tang Feng wanted to lift his right hand and point to the weird mask, but he couldn't lift his arm at all.

At this time, a little light appeared on the edge of Populus euphratica forest, the light became brighter and brighter, the weird music became cheerful, and the exciting drums sounded again, as if someone was dancing outside the Populus euphratica forest, but Tang Feng couldn't see clearly what was going on outside. situation.

"Young man, do you want to know why I wear a mask?" The woman said and walked forward slowly.

"I think...but you..." Now that Tang Feng knew the answer, he felt scared again.

The woman approached Tang Feng step by step, Tang Feng wanted to retreat, behind was the strangely shaped Populus euphratica tree, there was no way to retreat, the woman stopped one meter away from Tang Feng, and almost stood face to face with Tang Feng under the Populus euphratica tree, Tang Feng felt the breath of death, but he straightened up involuntarily and took half a step forward. He didn't know what force was attracting him, the breath of death?Upbeat music?Or this weird mask?

"Come, come here!" The woman called Tang Feng softly.
