Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

"There really are dragons in this world!"

Professor Chen had no doubt at all about what Su Mu said.

He knew some of Su Mu's background.

Such people always deal with abnormal events, so nothing they encounter is surprising.

During the three years of the subway project, the Chinese Academy of Sciences also set up a secret agency specifically to conduct research.

Professor Chen has also participated in a small part of the Jingjue culture because the ghost caves involve time and space, so he knows a thing or two.

"Are you sure it's not a large salamander?"

Shirley Yang had some doubts.

She felt that the dragons that the flower growers had been describing did not actually exist, and were more likely to be similar salamanders.

Due to crustal movement and other reasons, it has lived in certain special environments and has grown to a size that is considered a "dragon".

"Ms. Yang, I can still tell the difference between a salamander and a dragon. Dragon claws and scales cannot be faked."

He also speaks Trump's language.

Su Mu didn't say anything, because if he did, he would be considered a psychopath.

There was a brief silence in the carriage.

Su Mu didn't care and lay down again.

This time he didn't sleep. He put his hands behind his head, crossed his legs, and looked very relaxed.

"Mr. Su, aren't you worried about changing the route to Kunlun?"

Shirley Yang stood up and looked out the train window. As the scenery quickly faded away, she saw Ye Shuxin, who was sitting on the upper bunk, staring at Su Mu.

The infatuated look made Shirley Yang feel inexplicably irritated.

She spoke again to break the silence.

"I'm not afraid of death, so what else do I have to worry about?"

"Are you really not afraid of death? I don't believe it."

"Ms. Yang, I have died many times. The first time I fell into a coma was when I was hit by a shell from the United States. From 57 to now, there have been 22 recorded near-death experiences. Well, in your words, there have been 22 death notices issued..."

"Shirley, Mr. Su once worked in an important national department. I can't tell you the details, but his abilities and experience are indeed as Mr. Su said. I understand your feelings. When I first saw Mr. Su's information, I also had doubts. There is really someone in this world who can survive after experiencing those dangers."

"Professor Chen and Liao Zan, both of them serve the people, just with different divisions of labor."

Su Mu responded casually with two remarks.

At the next stop, everyone changed to another train and headed straight for Kunlun Mountains.

Sumu enjoyed two meals at the dining car chef's exquisite craftsmanship. He was amazed by the ingenuity of being able to make dishes with local flavor when passing through a place.

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan couldn't resist their desire for food, especially Wang Kaixuan, who took Su Mu out for another meal before getting off the car.

I was still burping when I got off the car.

But half an hour later, Wang Kaixuan regretted it.

There are military vehicles to pick us up at the destination.

Everyone sat together in the back of the truck.

The car drove into the mountains. The road was rugged and bumpy, and everyone was shaking every moment.

Unlike the shaking on a train, the shaking of a truck bed on the mountain is irregular.

Suddenly there is a violent shake, and occasionally a small shake.

The shaking came from all directions, front, back, left, right, and everywhere, making it impossible for anyone to defend themselves.

"Wow~!"

Wang Kaixuan stuck his neck out and kept vomiting as he shook.

I'm about to vomit bile.

Although the car was moving, the sour smell of vomit still drifted into the truck.

After all, the entire truck bed was covered with thick military tarpaulin, and the smell in the enclosed space quickly caused a chain reaction.

First of all, let’s talk about girls. Shirley Yang is better. After all, she has been trained by Partridge Whistle and her resistance to smells is much stronger than that of ordinary people.

Ye Shuxin was in trouble.

She was not sitting very far from Wang Kaixuan.

Because of her little tricks, she sat on Su Mu's left, while Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan happened to sit on Su Mu's right.

After a while, Ye Shuxin also began to dry heave.

She covered her mouth with her hands in horror.

If I vomited in front of Su Mu like Fatty Wang, my image would be completely ruined.

"Miss Xiaoye, let's switch places. If you can't help but want to vomit, just stick your head out..."

Shirley Yang didn't think about anything else. She sat on Ye Shuxin's left, which happened to be in the corner of the truck bed. Cool breeze occasionally blew in through the joint of the tarpaulin, so it was not easy to be suffocated by the sour and smelly smell and make herself feel nauseous.

Ye Shuxin still couldn't bear to leave Su Mu.

Although the car was shaking, it was inevitable that there would be some physical contact with Su Mu.

If Fatty Wang hadn't interfered, Ye Shuxin would have enjoyed it.

But she endured it again and again, and finally had no choice but to reluctantly switch places with Shirley Yang.

Although I was in a very bad mood, I still had to bite the bullet and say thank you to her against my will.

Thank you so much.

Ye Shuxin is a sensible girl and she would not do anything ruthless.

After changing her position, she did feel much better.

The car bumped a bit, and Ye Shuxin happened to turn her head to look at Su Mu.

But Shirley Yang fell sideways and fell into Su Mu's arms.

His left hand was still on Su Mu's chest...

I wasn't grateful right away.

Still a little angry.

Even though I was sitting there just now, I didn't dare to rush directly into his arms, nor did I dare to touch Su Mu with my hands.

How dare she be so bold!

Su Mu held Shirley Yang's shoulders and helped her sit up again.

Su Mu has a meticulous understanding of the vehicle's bumpy ride and the subtle manipulation of human muscles.

If it wasn't intentional, Shirley Yang would never have fallen into his arms and secretly touched his abdominal muscles.

So Su Mu didn't hesitate.

When he helped Shirley Yang up, his right hand did not grab Shirley Yang's shoulder, but her arm, the upper arm near the elbow.

The backs of the three fingers were naturally squeezed by Shirley Yang's chest and arms.

As expected of someone who grew up eating beef, it’s really good.

Portions are plentiful.

For some reason, perhaps because Su Mu's test was too direct, on the road ahead, even though the road was bumpy and swaying more violently, Shirley Yang did not fall into Su Mu's arms again.

Ye Shuxin endured it again and again, and finally did not vomit.

When they arrived at the camp at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, Ye Shuxin couldn't help but vomit loudly after getting out of the car.

Su Mu didn't see it, he and Hu Bayi went to meet some "acquaintances".

Chu Jian and Satipeng were busy counting the equipment, while Professor Chen communicated and coordinated with the officers in charge of the camp, asking them to send a few people as guides to go mountain climbing.

evening.

Representatives of the garrison troops held a frank meeting with the scientific expedition team led by Professor Chen.

Su Mu and Hu Bayi also participated in the meeting.

Only two of them accompanied at the end, and they only brought their ears but not their mouths throughout the whole process.

"A few years ago, there was a small earthquake on the Kunlun Glacier. A crack appeared at the eastern foot of the glacier, and the crack went straight underground..."

"Not long after, a Chinese-foreign joint expedition team diverted there and has not been heard from since."

"The notebook of Mr. Walter, a British explorer at the beginning of this century, was also lost there..."

"That notebook contains information about the Jingjue Ancient City, and also describes in detail how Mr. Walter and his team found the Jingjue Ancient City step by step. This notebook is crucial to our search for the Jingjue Ancient City, and it is the goal we must obtain this time."

"The expedition's last distress signal was sent from a crack on the eastern foot of the Kunlun Glacier, so we have every reason to believe that the notebook is there!"

Professor Chen was very direct this time and gave a straightforward introduction.

Su Mu felt that he was quite good at dealing with people.

It is very different from most professors who do research.

He has the ability to say one thing to one person and another thing to another person.

In the former, Su Mu had seen Professor Chen's four different ways of communicating on the topic, and in the latter...

Su Mu smiled slightly.

He would see it eventually.

"Our company will arrange a communications soldier to accompany us throughout the journey and be responsible for keeping in touch with the rear at all times. If we encounter danger, we can also arrange support and rescue as soon as possible."

"For your safety, the company will be equipped with two more sharpshooters to act with you and protect your safety at all times."

"Thank you so much. With your arrangements, we can feel more at ease."

Professor Chen shook hands with the company commander.

The two sides finally agreed to set off early tomorrow morning.

That night, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan shared a tent.

Su Mu came out to smoke a cigarette in the middle of the night and met Hu Bayi who couldn't sleep.

"What's wrong? You'll still be needed to lead the team tomorrow. Don't delay the trip because of a lack of rest."

Sumu never participated in the trip to the eastern foothills of Kunlun Glacier.

Hu Bayi was originally a member of the advance team. He got separated from the team and mistakenly entered the depths of the glacier.

They encountered what looked like a nine-story demon tower and encountered a glacier while escaping. Only a few of their companions survived.

At least Hu Bayi is familiar with that road.

Because it was a secret mission at that time, these two batches of recruits had never walked before.

Hu Bayi is not only the leader of the scientific expedition team, but also the chief leader of the search for ice caves on the eastern slope of the glacier.

"Brother Su, I can't sleep because I think of the comrades who died that year."

"Have one."

"I have heard a little about what happened back then. I know you have been helping the families and orphans of the comrades who died back then, right?"

Su Mu's tone was very firm, so he continued talking without waiting for Hu Bayi to speak.

"Now let me ask you, do you have any regrets?"

There was something strange in Su Mu's tone of voice when he asked the question.

When Hu Bayi heard this, he was stunned at first, and then he showed a look of ecstasy.

"Su, Brother Su, there is a military doctor who was bitten by a wolf pack and injured his spine. He has no feeling below the neck... Is there any way to treat this situation?"

"High paraplegia?"

Su Mu looked at Hu Bayi deeply.

"Gay or lesbian?"

"what?"

"Men and women have different body structures and muscle layouts, so treatment plans and recovery conditions also vary from person to person. I need to ask clearly before I can give you an answer."

"It's a female comrade and an army doctor named Emma."

"Yeah, I understand."

Su Mu nodded: "When this mission is over, I will go with you. If I can treat it, I will do my best."

"Thank you, Brother Su."

Hu Bayi wanted to slap himself twice.

The man who possesses mysterious powers and can create miracles has always been in his network of contacts, and he has even met him many times. He is his big brother.

I never thought about helping Emma cure her illness.

Damn it.

Emma suffered for several more years.

Maybe this is what it means to be in the dark.

After finishing a cigarette, Su Mu urged Hu Bayi to go to rest.

He himself didn't care.

Twenty minutes of meditation is no different from a day and night of deep sleep.

Early the next morning.

Ye Shuxin and Shirley Yang came out of the tent together.

The food standard of the company's breakfast has also been greatly improved due to the arrival of Professor Chen.

There are not only delicious and filling staple foods, but also meaty appetizers.

Everyone talked enthusiastically about their sleep last night and marveled at the magical scenery of the glacier and snow.

They are just a bunch of young people who have never seen the world.

Although the Kunlun Mountain base is at the foot of the mountain, its actual altitude is about 3,600 to 3,700 meters.

Most people don’t actually sleep well.

In an oxygen-deficient environment, the stronger you are, the more uncomfortable you will feel.

This may be the reason why Professor Chen and Ye Shuxin can sleep well.

Su Mu looked around and observed everyone's expressions. Even Shirley Yang was not as energetic as yesterday, let alone Chu Jian and Satipeng.

They played the role of newcomers at the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and pretended not to be very familiar with Su Mu along the way.

We all enjoyed it and found it very interesting.

Several people have experienced many life and death moments, and their comradeship is very deep.

Of course, they also knew a lot about Captain Su's romantic affairs.

As a result, even after they got married until now, he has never taken the initiative to invite Sumu to his home, and has not even revealed his wife's information.

"Professor Chen, Miss Yang, let me introduce you."

The company leader brought three people to the members of the scientific expedition team.

Everyone had changed into warm clothes and were now checking their equipment and supplies before departure.

When they heard the sound, they put down their work and looked over.

"This is Ga Wa, the big guy, the sharpshooter of our company."

"This is Xiao Liu, the engineering communications soldier."

Perhaps due to some confidentiality issues, the names of the three soldiers provided by the company were very vague.

Especially the two sharpshooters, whose nicknames and pet names are obvious from the moment they are heard.

Shirley Yang wanted to ask.

Su Mu stopped her.

"Kunlun Mountain is the ancestral mountain of the Flower Clan. It is normal for this place to be somewhat mysterious. The troops stationed here have a high level of confidentiality. The name is just a code name. There is no need to delve into it."

Su Mu didn't say a few words, but his meaning was very clear.

Shirley Yang pursed her lips a few times, then turned and left.

It's nothing more than that she is a beautiful Chinese. Although she is an overseas Chinese, it is impossible to tell whether her heart is striped or red.

If Shirley Yang insisted on digging deeper, there was even the possibility of ending up in the eastern foothills of the Kunlun Glacier.

What if it’s a foreign spy coming here to get secrets?

Perhaps Shirley Yang had guessed this possibility, so she turned away indignantly.

Being treated differently, Shirley Yang was naturally not in a good mood.

"lets go."

Professor Chen's apprentice Hao Aiguo took the lead and walked out first.

He is very positive.

I don’t know how long that fragile body can hold on.

Su Mu looked into the distance.

The majestic figure of the glacier seems to be right in front of us, but it is true that you have to run till your death to see the mountain.

Some of their group are still leaving.

"Lao Hu, you lead the way. You are the only one familiar with this place. I will take care of them from behind."

Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi have always worked in perfect harmony with each other, and they are indeed childhood friends who grew up playing mischief together.

According to Su Mu's understanding, even if they formed a group to work in the future, Hu Bayi would be responsible for dividing the gold and determining the location of the burial site, while Wang Kaixuan would be responsible for the output of force.

One has a good brain, one has strong limbs, and Shirley Yang is agile, filling the gaps and building bridges for the trio.

Su Mu watched this scene with anticipation in his heart, so he didn't show up and followed Ye Shuxin.

The little girl's physical fitness is still a little lacking, and she will probably get tired after walking for a while.

He took care of it by the way.

It is not ruled out that you hold the child for a while and then carry him on your back for another while.
