Zhou Tong Detective Series

Chapter 40 Zhou Tong Detective Series II: Blood Talisman (19)
William also joined Li Ying, Ai Chen, Liu Qingte and Qin Mengyao, while Yan Yongjie walked back alone with tired steps.

"Yan Yongjie, where's Zhou Tong?" Li Ying couldn't help but ran forward and asked first.

"They took them away." Yan Yongjie looked frustrated.

"Why didn't you stop them!" Li Ying angrily took off her helmet and fell to the ground.

"Li Ying, you're going too far!" William scolded.

"Yan Yongjie has done her best, look at her!" Ai Chen came up to embrace the tearful Li Ying, pointed at Yan Yongjie's body armor covered with bullet marks, and said the cracked bulletproof helmet.

"Yes...I'm sorry..." Li Ying also felt that she had gone too far, so she wiped her tears and apologized.

"No!" Yan Yongjie suddenly said something inexplicably.

Everyone didn't know what she was talking about, so they looked at her curiously, and Li Ying's tears were stopped by her "no".

"Yan Yongjie, Li Ying was also too nervous Zhou Tong, that's why she spoke a little excitedly." Liu Qingte explained to Li Ying.

"I'm not talking about that, I'm saying that Zhou Tong's reaction just now was wrong." Yan Yongjie shook her head and said.

"What's wrong with his reaction?" Qin Mengyao asked with concern.

"When I went to rescue him just now, although he was caught by the other party, he told me calmly that I don't have to worry, he will be fine. This is too strange. If it was normal, he should cry He should be begging me to save him." Yan Yongjie spoke out the doubts in her heart.

"Could it be that he has some plan, or did he deliberately let the enemy catch him?" Qin Mengyao also said to himself.

"There must be a problem!" Yan Yongjie said, and ran to the house where Zhou Tong was brought out just now.

Although the others didn't understand what Yan Yongjie was up to, they still followed her closely and ran in.

The house is not big, and soon, Yan Yongjie found the room where Zhou Tong was imprisoned.

"Zhou Tong should be locked up here!" Yan Yongjie pointed to the burning waste paper in the room.

"Yes, Zhou Tong must have done something here, and the other party was eager to burn these things when they left." William also agreed with Yan Yongjie's analysis.

"It has been burned, what clues can we find, can it be recovered?" Ai Chen looked at the ashes all over the ground and asked with some disappointment.

"Impossible, Zhou Tong won't leave us any clues!" Yan Yongjie denied Ai Chen's speculation.

"Then let's look for it," Liu Qingte suggested.

Everyone was tossing about in the room. The room was not big, and there were very few things. It was not difficult to find things, but they found nothing.

"There's nothing there. I've checked the walls, ceiling, and floor, and there's not even a single scratch!" Li Ying said anxiously.

"Table!" Yan Yongjie suddenly pointed to the iron table in front of him, "Move it away!"

William and Liu Qingte immediately lifted the aluminum alloy table, and sure enough there was a folded piece of paper under one corner of it.

Yan Yongjie immediately picked it up.

There was actually a map drawn on the piece of paper. In the lower right corner of the map, there was a big cross, which should refer to the place where Zhou Tong and the others were going. However, the map was drawn very sloppily due to time constraints, but it was good. In the upper left corner, there are two small words: "Chifeng".

"It should be a place name." Yan Yongjie looked at the map and said to himself.

Liu Qingte and Qin Mengyao at the side immediately approached, and when they saw the map, they screamed in unison: "Chifeng!"

"Do you know this place?" Yan Yongjie asked immediately.

The two nodded.

Qin Mengyao looked at Liu Qingte and said, "You should introduce me!".

Liu Qingte pondered for a while, and said: "Chifeng has a long history, and there were human activities 1 years ago. It belongs to the legendary Jizhou of Kyushu in ancient China. The famous "Hongshan Culture" and "Fuhe Culture" sites indicate that there are about six 7000 years ago, this was the place where human ancestors lived and multiplied. Since then, Chifeng has become an important area for the activities of ethnic minorities in northern China. In the 20s, the large jade dragon unearthed in Sanxingtala, Wengniute Banner, more than 70 years ago, is in It caused a sensation all over the country, and it was hailed as the 'No. 5000 Dragon in the World', proving that the ancient culture in Chifeng area, like the Central Plains area, is one of the important sources of ancient Chinese civilization."

"You don't need to introduce so much historical knowledge, just tell me where the fork on the map refers to?" Li Ying urged impatiently, anxious about Zhou Tong's whereabouts.

"Li Ying, don't worry, just listen to Liu Qingte slowly." Ai Chen was very interested in this.

Liu Qingte looked at Ai Chen with a smile, and then continued: "During the Liao Dynasty, the Khitan people established a powerful Liao Dynasty, and set up Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing and Dading Mansion in Zhongjing. Jinshi belonged to Beijing Road. Yuanshi belonged to Zhongshu Daning Road, Quanning Road, Yingchang Road, and Shangdu Road in Liaoyang Province and Liaoyang Province. In the Ming Dynasty, it belonged to Daningwei, Quanningwei, and Yingchangwei at the beginning, and then belonged to Wuliangha Sanwei. Established in 43 years of Qianlong Since then, Chifeng County has been named 'Chifeng'. If I am not mistaken, the Chifeng Zhou Tong refers to should be Chifeng City in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and its surrounding areas."

"I think this map should be shown to Lin Danxi. He should be very familiar with the terrain and help us find the exact location." Yan Yongjie thought of Lin Danxi who was still recovering from his injuries.

"So this place will be the location of Genghis Khan's mausoleum?" Qin Mengyao said thoughtfully.

Yan Yongjie nodded and said, "I believe Zhou Tong has unlocked the secret of the talisman."

"No matter what, we must find this place first, and we must not let the Russian Mafia succeed." William said urgently.

The helicopter carrying Feng Tianrong, Li Xin and Zhou Tong landed on the roof of a skyscraper. Zhou Tong was pushed off the helicopter and locked up again.

"What is the map of this place?" Feng Tianrong asked with the sketch drawn by Zhou Tong in his hand.

"That's how the lines on the talisman are stitched together. As for the location marked on the map, I think you need to find some experts in history and geography to take a look!" Zhou Tong also shrugged, saying that he didn't know.

"You better not lie, we will confirm the authenticity of your blueprint soon." Feng Tianrong said in a slightly threatening tone.

Zhou Tong didn't speak any more, and looked like he was listening and respectful.

Feng Tianrong took the blueprint and left. After four or five hours, he left and returned.

"The area on the map is in Chifeng. After all, you're smart, but you will live longer if you play less tricks in the future." Feng Tianrong's words seemed to imply something.

Zhou Tong seemed to have known for a long time that Feng Tianrong would know the location of the map, so he was not surprised, but asked lightly, "When are we going to leave?"

"Now!" Feng Tianrong said and pulled Zhou Tong up from the chair.

On the other hand, William had to stay in the manor of the Russian Mafia to deal with the aftermath, while Yan Yongjie, Li Ying, Liu Qingte, Qin Mengyao and Ai Chen were anxious to determine the location of Genghis Khan's tomb, so they went to Lin Danxi first .

Lin Danxi's injury has been treated and there is no major problem, but he just needs to rest. When he saw Yan Yongjie and his group come back in a hurry, he immediately sat up from the bed.

"Did Zhou Tong be rescued?"

The crowd shook their heads.

Seeing this, Lin Danxi couldn't help but feel a little gloomy.

"Lin Danxi, here is a map, we hope you can take a look!" Yan Yongjie said as he took out the blueprint and handed it to Lin Danxi.

"Chifeng!" Lin Danxi said in surprise after taking the map.

"Yes, this is the blueprint left by Zhou Tong. If our deduction is correct, the crossed place on the map should be where Genghis Khan's mausoleum is located." Yan Yongjie emphasized.

"This picture is too sloppy, but if my impression is correct, the location of the cross on the map should be in Huiteng Grassland!" Lin Danxi said after looking at the map and trying to recall the terrain he was familiar with.

"Lin Danxi, can you still go?" Yan Yongjie asked with concern, because without Lin Danxi as a guide, it would be difficult for them to find the place.

Lin Danxi gritted his teeth, stood up, and said in a firm tone, "I'm fine, go to Chifeng immediately!"

Chifeng City is located in the southeast of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, at the junction of Mongolia, Hebei and Liaoning provinces, and in the transition zone from the Inner Mongolia Plateau to the Liaohe Plain. The east is the West Liaohe Plain.

Feng Tianrong and Li Xin took Zhou Tong, sneaked across the border, and then went straight to Chifeng.

Zhou Tong's hands were tightly handcuffed, and what's more, Li Xin planted a miniature bomb on his body.

"Just the three of us going to rob the tomb?" Zhou Tong asked Feng Tianrong in surprise.

Feng Tianrong only smiled contemptuously when he heard the words, and then said: "Don't think that you are so great if you have cracked the secret of the talisman. I think there are still many things you don't know about Genghis Khan's tomb!"

Zhou Tong didn't continue to ask, he just showed a smile that was extremely difficult to detect.

The road on the prairie is straight and flat, and occasionally turns into the mountains. The most dazzling wildflowers on the roadside are the brilliant sunflowers.

After arriving at the Huiteng Grassland, Feng Tianrong and Li Xin gave up driving and started walking on the grassland with Zhou Tong according to the map stitched together from the lines on the talisman.

The scenery of the grassland is very beautiful, and there is a line of flat-topped mountains on the Huiteng grassland. The sunset here is called the platform sunset.

Feng Tianrong, Li Xin and Zhou Tong climbed to the top of the mountain.

Zhou Tong didn't have the slightest anxiety about being held hostage by someone. He raised his eyes and looked far away, hoping to see the edge of the grassland, but he couldn't see the end. He simply wrapped himself in the grassland and the blue sky, letting his thoughts wander freely.

Unknowingly, the sun was setting and the sky was full of sunset clouds, making the top of the mountain red.

"Hey! Brat, this is the place marked on your map!" Feng Tianrong interrupted Zhou Tong, who was still admiring the scenery of the grassland, holding the map.

"Yes, it should be near here, but no one has found the tomb of Genghis Khan's mausoleum for 800 years. One of the important reasons is that the Mongol cemetery does not leave any traces. After it is finished, cover it with a layer of soil, so that the outside world can't tell it from the outside. We only have three people now, don't you plan to build a lot here and dig up the earth?" Zhou Tong said sarcastically.

"You underestimate us too much. If you are not sure, how could the two of us come here at the risk of danger?" Li Xin immediately retorted.

"I advise you to continue to cooperate with us, otherwise, if you can't find the mausoleum, I will let you have no bones left!" Feng Tianrong threw the bomb detonator in his hand.

Facing the threat, Zhou Tong had no choice but to remain silent.

"Li Xin, take out the detector!" Feng Tianrong didn't talk to Zhou Tong anymore, but told Li Xin.

Li Xin took out an electronic device that looked like a compass from his backpack, set up the tripod, and then started the instrument. On the blue LCD screen of the instrument, data and graphics continued to flash.

"This is the most advanced geological detector." Feng Tianrong said ostentatiously.

"Does it work?" Zhou Tong looked at the instrument with some curiosity.

Feng Tianrong laughed, and he began to talk more.

"Perhaps you don't know that the Mausoleum of Genghis Khan is very different from the tombs of ordinary emperors. The tombs of other emperors will not leave entrances and will be completely sealed. For example, although the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang knows the location, if you want to steal the inside It is almost impossible to find treasures. But Genghis Khan is different. His tomb is not only his resting place, but also the treasure he left for the Mongols to last forever. So as long as you can find the location of the tomb and find the entrance, You can go deep into the cemetery without any digging at all."

"How do you know this?" Zhou Tong asked curiously.

"That's not what you need to know." Feng Tianrong cautiously rejected Zhou Tong's question.

Just as the two were talking, the instrument beeped "tick".

"The analysis results are here!" Li Xin said excitedly, "A large area of ​​metal objects was detected about 100 meters to the west!"

"Okay, let's go there immediately!" Feng Tianrong pushed Zhou Tong and searched west.

"It's here!" Li Xin shouted loudly.

Feng Tianrong and Zhou Tong stopped, and there was a huge rock where they walked, which is rarely seen on the grassland.Although rare, there is nothing unusual about the stone, but the surface of the stone is extremely smooth due to long-term weathering.

"Could it be possible to push this stone away?" Feng Tianrong circled around the stone several times, and said a little dejectedly.

"If this is the case, I think you need to find a few tanks to be reliable." Zhou Tong couldn't help laughing.

"Tank, I don't think it's necessary. It's okay to tie him to a rock and use the bomb on his body!" Li Xin who came over touched Zhou Tong's face.

"No, no, let's study together first, maybe there is a way." Zhou Tong hurriedly stepped back, frightened.

"Then you'd better figure it out quickly, we don't have much patience." Li Xin gloated at Zhou Tong.

Zhou Tong began to get serious. He touched the stone, squatted down for a while, and stood up again for a while, but finally he fell down.

"What the hell are you doing?" Feng Tianrong couldn't stand it any longer.

"Look, what is this?" Zhou Tong said, feeling out a handful of sand from under the stone.

"This is quicksand, so why make such a fuss!"

"Quicksand is not surprising, but the sand comes out of the rock. There are some small holes under the rock, and the sand seeps out of it." Zhou Tong lay down again, pointing to the small hole under the rock Said.

Feng Tianrong and Li Xin also got down on the ground in dubious faith, and they saw some imperceptible small holes under the rock, and there was a little sand under the small holes.

"The stone is hollow, filled with sand!" Zhou Tong said with certainty.

"It's really a very elaborate design. If the stone is moved or exploded, the quicksand inside will immediately rush out and block the entrance!" Feng Tianrong was a little surprised.

"Well, we have to find a way to get the sand out first!" At this time, Zhou Tong looked more like a grave robber.

"Is there any good way?" Li Xin had to admire Zhou Tong again.

Zhou Tong stood up, tapped his head for a while, and then asked Li Xin: "Can your tripod be disassembled?".

It turned out that Zhou Tong saw that the tripod was made of a hollow steel ring. If one end is ground and inserted into the small hole, the quicksand in the stone can be slowly discharged to the outside.

Soon the tripod was dismembered. After a little treatment, the three hollow steel rings were inserted into the small holes below by Zhou Tong, and then he sucked hard at the other end. come out.

Whenever the discharged quicksand accumulates to a certain extent, Feng Tianrong, Li Xin and Zhou Tong will grab it with their hands and spread it on the surrounding grass. trace.

Even so, it took a whole night for the quicksand in the rocks to gradually drain away.Feng Tianrong, Li Xin and Zhou Tong were so tired that they almost collapsed.

And at this time, one side of the huge rock that had no gaps suddenly cracked, revealing a hole.

The three people who were exhausted immediately cheered up and drilled in. Unexpectedly, there was a secret passage in the rock leading to the ground.

Zhou Tong was pushed to the front by Feng Tianrong, and the three walked down cautiously.

The three people originally thought that they should be blind inside, but they were horrified to find that on the vault of the tunnel, every few meters there was a bright lamp projecting a faint light, illuminating the entire passage.

After walking down the tunnel, a huge underground palace appeared in front of you. At the end of the underground palace, there was an iron gate with a height of more than ten meters. The iron gate was carved with lifelike dragon heads, majestic and majestic.

"Genghis Khan's tomb! Found it, found it!" Feng Tianrong couldn't help the excitement in his heart and shouted loudly.

Li Xin's eyes were also full of greedy expectations, completely carried away.
