Chapter 84 The Lost 1964 (21)
"I don't need to worry about this, but you can go back and tell Iryukin that I can guarantee [-]% that the jade screen was not stolen by Han Jiang, but by those men in black, that powerful mysterious organization. Tell me again Ilyukin, let him concentrate on dealing with the real treasure thieves, and stop staring at us." Yelena said sharply.

After finishing speaking, Yelena started the car suddenly, threw the unsuspecting Ivanov off, and then walked away.Annoyed, Ivanlov hurriedly jumped into a "Ford" not far away, and chased after him.

Yelena saw Ivanov in the rearview mirror, and said with a sneer, "He's not my opponent yet." Saying that, Yelena stepped up her horsepower and sprinted towards the intersection ahead that was about to turn into a red light. , Two seconds, one second, the red light is on! "Fiat" passed the intersection amidst the sound of horns, brakes and cursing, leaving only Ivanov, who was honking his horn sharply on the other side of the traffic, staring blankly, but there was nothing he could do!

Yelena saw Ivanlov's distressed appearance from the rearview mirror, and sneered twice, while Han Jiang looked back at Ivanlov who was stuck in the traffic, and then smiled at Yelena: "Ivanov Fanlov, is he out of the game?"

Yelena replied loudly to Han Jiang: "Yes, I have already kicked him out of my platoon. Now, my platoon does not need to be overstaffed." After finishing speaking, Yelena kissed Han Jiang gently on the cheek again. one time.

[Section [-] The Great Tower]

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan spent several difficult hours in Ji Moshen's office. When the day was about to dawn, the two fell asleep, but not long after they fell asleep, suddenly, Tang Feng's cell phone rang , The ringtone of the mobile phone was particularly harsh in the silent office. Tang Feng, who was awakened, hurriedly took out his mobile phone and saw a completely unfamiliar number displayed on the screen. It must not be from China, but a local landline in Petersburg. Just as Tang Feng was about to answer it, Liang Yuan suddenly yelled at him: "You are crazy, if this call is from Ilyukin or those men in black, once you answer it, we will be exposed."

Hearing this, Tang Feng's heart trembled suddenly, yes!Fortunately, they met the kind-hearted Tymoshin, otherwise they would have nowhere to live now!If it is exposed, not only will it be over for him, but Timoshen will also be implicated.Tang Feng froze there. He put the mobile phone on Timoshen's desk, neither answering nor disconnecting the phone. Just like that, letting the familiar ringtone waft in the silent office, Tang Feng Feng stared at the gleaming mobile phone screen in the dark. At this moment, he suddenly felt that the familiar ringtone became extremely terrifying!The ringing stopped, but only for a moment, the terrifying ringing sounded again, Tang Feng couldn't take it anymore, he wanted to stop the ringing, he suddenly rushed towards the mobile phone on the table in a frenzy, Tang Feng's hands trembled violently, He found the off button, his hands shook even more, he pressed the off button, and the ringing finally stopped.

Turning off the phone, Tang Feng washed his face in the bathroom, and then returned to Ji Moshen's desk. Liang Yuan saw that Tang Feng's face was extremely ugly, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Tang Feng waved his hand and said: "It's okay, I'm too nervous these days, and I'm afraid! Rest for a while, and you'll be fine."

"You didn't look like this when we were hunted down a few months ago?"

"It's different, it's a completely new environment for us, and we don't get any support here."

"Didn't you get the support of your Russian colleagues?"

"Tymoshin? No, even if Tymoshin is kind enough to help us, we can't stay here for long, it will hurt him. Within three days, we have to find a way, otherwise we have to go to the Chinese consulate, but then, Our mission is completely over." Tang Feng said worriedly.

"I don't know what happened to Han Jiang and the doctor?" Liang Yuan asked worriedly.

"It's definitely bad luck, but if they can get the help of Yelena and Makarov, they may still have a chance to turn defeat into victory."

"But when we went to Yelena's apartment, Ilyukin's people were already there. Could it be that Han Jiang and the doctor went to find Yelena, but Ilyukin ended up taking over."

This is exactly what Tang Feng was worried about. He said that the solution he came up with within three days was just to find Han Jiang as soon as possible, because Tang Feng knew that with the strength of him and Liang Yuan alone, it was already good enough to protect themselves. , If you want to turn defeat into victory, you can only find Han Jiang as soon as possible, but if the worst case mentioned by Liang Yuan really happens, what should you do?Tang Feng didn't dare to think about it. He shook his head and said to Liang Yuan: "If Yelena is really reliable, I think with the skills of Han Jiang and Yelena, Ilyukin's people will not catch him easily."

"I hope so!" Liang Yuan prayed silently in her heart.

Tang Feng calmed down completely and felt a pang of hunger in his stomach. He lifted a corner of the heavy curtain and looked outside. It was already bright, and he looked at his watch. It should have passed the working hours, but Timo Shen hadn't come to work yet.However, it is not surprising that these scholars who do research do not have fixed working hours.Tang Feng was thinking, and inadvertently flipped through the books and research materials piled up on Timoshin's desk like a hill, including Russian, English, French, and of course, many Chinese ones. Flipping through these books, while tidying up the desk for Ji Moshen, he put the books into one category, and then put those research materials and waste papers into one category, Liang Yuan looked at Tang Feng curiously: "Where are you going?" What are you doing?"

"Isn't there nothing to do? Read Tymoshin's book."

"Oh, you haven't said yet, how did you know him?"

"It was when I visited the Winter Palace that day that I met him. His major is similar to mine, and even a little more professional than mine."

"Oh! So, you guys have a lot in common!" Liang Yuan laughed.

Tang Feng shook his head, "I came to Petersburg with a mission, so it is inconvenient to reveal my true identity to him, but I still revealed my identity to him that day."

"Hehe, you are not expected to be a spy."

"Yeah, I was thinking, after this is over, I'd better go back to the university to do research. This is really not a life for people." Tang Feng complained.

"I think this kind of life is very interesting. Anyway, I was controlled too strictly by my father and grandfather since I was a child. I didn't have any freedom at all. It wasn't until I went to study in the United States that I finally got rid of my father's control." Liang Yuan said helplessly.

Tang Feng asked curiously: "We have been together for so long, and you haven't told me about your father and your grandfather in detail. Of course, I know that mentioning your grandfather at this time is a painful thing for you. "

Liang Yuan shook her head and said, "It's okay. In fact, my father has nothing to talk about. He loves me very much and is very strict with me, but later I found a way to deal with him. He is only my daughter. He had a disagreement, and I acted like a baby in front of him, and he definitely didn't back down."

"Just like you insisted on following us this time."

"Yes, in comparison, although my grandfather is very strict with me, but it is a different kind of strictness from my father. My father is very straightforward in speech and deeds, and often lacks emotion, so my father and I are angry. I often say that he is a 'cold-blooded animal', but grandpa is kind. He educated me like a profound and kind old professor. In my impression, grandpa seems to know everything, so I like being with grandpa. .”

"What about your family's business? Is it like the legends outside? Your grandfather suddenly made his first pot of gold in the 70s, and then your family's business grew bigger and bigger. Later, it was passed on to your father. With today's scale." Tang Feng asked again.

Liang Yuan shook her head and said, "I said that I don't care about our family's business, and I don't know how my grandfather started his business. Anyway, when I was born, our family's business was already doing quite well."

When Liang Yuan was speaking, Tang Feng suddenly noticed a string of necklaces protruding from her chest. It was a string of necklaces with pendants. The pendants were heart-shaped and plated with gold. old.Tang Feng also noticed that Liang Yuan wore this necklace before, but he never asked her about the origin of this necklace. Tang Feng pointed to the necklace on Liang Yuan's chest and asked, "How can you be so young and fashionable? An old-fashioned necklace?"

"What? Do you think it's not good-looking?" Liang Yuan asked back.

"No! It's nice, I'm just wondering, so I'm asking."

Liang Yuan took off the necklace and snapped open the pendant on the necklace. Tang Feng noticed that the pendant was empty this time, and it seemed to be a photo. Liang Yuan pointed to this photo and said to Tang Feng: "Because this necklace was left by my mother, I have been wearing it since my mother passed away."

Liang Yuan handed the necklace to Tang Feng. Tang Feng looked at the black-and-white photo that was not very clear. In the photo, it was a woman with a delicate face. The woman was dignified and noble, with a slight smile on her mouth, but Tang Feng Feng felt that this smile was a bit forced and unnatural.

"This is Liang Yuan's mother?" Tang Feng thought wildly. He returned the necklace to Liang Yuan, and asked Liang Yuan, "Why have I never heard you mention your mother?"

"Because my mother passed away when I was seven years old, I have very little memory of my mother. If I hadn't often seen this photo, my impression of my mother would be even more blurred." Get wet.

Tang Feng looked at Liang Yuan and didn't know how to comfort her. Just when Tang Feng was at a loss, he suddenly saw a thin document on Ji Moshen's desk. The document was a photocopy. This document is very old, and Tang Feng picked it up with great curiosity.

This is a document from the Tsarist Russia era. Due to the age, it may have turned yellow, so the photocopy is not very clear. The Russian words on the cover of the document took Tang Feng for a long time before he stuttered and read. Come out - great... big... tower of....

great tower?Tang Feng seemed to have heard this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while. Under the "Great Tower", there was another string of Russian words. Tang Feng quickly recognized that it was a Russian name—Ah Lexy?Ivanovic?Ivanov?Tang Feng has always been very cold about lengthy Russian names, so he opened the information without thinking carefully. The information is very brief, but Tang Feng's Russian level is very average, so Tang Feng read it for a long time before he finally figured it out. The content of the material, this material mainly introduces the situation of the Russian explorer Kozlov's piracy of Heishui City in Xixia twice in 1908 and 1909.This was what Tang Feng was interested in, but when he wanted to read it carefully again, he heard the sound of a key opening the door.

Both Tang Feng and Liang Yuan became nervous, besides Ji Moshen, would there be anyone else?The grand door of the palace finally opened, but only a narrow gap was exposed. A tall and thin figure entered the door and closed it tightly. Tang Feng took a closer look and found that the person who came was Timo Shen He hung his heart and then fell back to his original position.

"How many keys does this door have?" Tang Feng asked nervously when he saw Ji Moshen.

Ji Moshen was taken aback for a moment, but immediately understood what Tang Feng meant. He took out the keys and explained to Tang Feng: "So there are three keys in total, one for me, one for the old professor in the same office as me, and one for the old professor in the same office as me. One was kept in the security department. Then the old professor retired and gave me his key.”

"Oh, the security department has one?"

"Don't worry, they usually don't come to the office area to check. The key is only stored in the security department. After so many years, maybe their people don't know where the key is." Tymoshen explained.

"That's good, oh, I forgot to ask you, why did you suddenly disappear in the Little Hermitage Palace that day?"

"Oh, it was because the curator had something important to ask me that day. I saw that you were engrossed in watching the mechanical peacock unfold, so I left without disturbing you." Timoshen's explanation sounded reasonable.

"That mechanical peacock is really ingenious." Tang Feng praised.

"By the way, I also have a question for you. You said you are being chased. Who is chasing you? If necessary, I can call the police for you." Timoshen asked with concern.

"Don't, don't call the police." Tang Feng looked hesitant to speak, and after holding back for a long time, Tang Feng murmured: "This matter is very complicated, and it will be even more complicated if you call the police, so... please believe us, We are not bad people, don't worry, we will only stay with you for three days at most."

"No!——No! Tang Feng, I'm not trying to drive you away, I'm just curious, if you don't want to say it, then forget it." Ji Moshen said generously.

"I'm causing you trouble. I will tell you everything when I have a chance in the future."

"I hope one day! You must be hungry, I brought you some food." After Timoshin finished speaking, Tang Feng noticed that Timoshin had brought them a lot of fast food.

Although Tang Feng and Liang Yuan didn't like to eat these Western-style fast food very much, it would be nice to have this food when they are in trouble.While the two were eating, Timoshin caught a glimpse of the document on the table.He picked up the information and flipped through it suspiciously.

"I was bored, so I flipped through it casually." Tang Feng explained with some embarrassment.

"It seems that you are really interested in Xixia. How is it? Can you understand this information?" Timoshen asked.

"I probably understand it. The information mainly records the process of Kozlov's discovery of Blackwater City. However, my Russian level is really not very good, so there are still many things I don't understand."

"Okay then, let me tell you about this document, which is the 'great tower' mentioned above!" Tymoshin said slowly.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan came together and looked at the information in Timoshin's hands curiously. Timoshin pointed to the name on the cover——Alexey?Ivanovic?Ivanov introduced: "Although this information is very short, it is very important. This person is the author of the information, Tang Feng. You may not be familiar with this Russian name, but when it comes to his Chinese name, you must listen to it." As I said, this person is Yifengge, a famous sinologist and orientalist in our country, and the originator of Xixia studies."

"Yifengge! No wonder I felt a little familiar with the Russian name just now. It turned out to be the famous Yifengge!" Tang Feng was too familiar with this name, but just now he didn't mix the lengthy Russian name with Yifeng. The name of the cabinet is linked.

"Yes, because Yifengge's name is known to everyone in the Xixia academic circle, and even the entire Oriental academic circle, but everyone has forgotten his original Russian name. Yifengge graduated from the Oriental Language Department of St. Petersburg University in 1901, majoring in Chinese and Manchu languages. , he is talented and intelligent, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is a genius. He has a great talent for the history, language and culture of the East. One day in 1909, Yi Fengge opened a large package in the room of the Geographical Society In the Tangut documents that Kozlov brought back from Heishui City, Yifengge discovered a completely new script in these messy documents. What Luo Fu brought back with camels twice turned out to be the history of that distant dynasty more than 800 years ago. Since then, a history that has been dusty for many years has been slowly uncovered, and a brand-new knowledge-Xixia Studies was born. "

Tymoshen paused, and then continued: "And this brief information is a report compiled by Yifengge based on the experience described by Kozlov and the photos taken by the expedition team. You know What is the purpose of Zlov's expedition to China? You must know that he didn't know that his trip to China would make such a shocking discovery."

"Purpose? I only know that many explorers went to western China for various purposes, such as Stein from England, Pelliot from France, etc." Tang Feng didn't speak, but Liang Yuan spoke first.

"Yes, many explorers went to explore western China in that era, but Kozlov went to China just for a legend?"
