Chapter 406: Black and White Impermanence

Kuroko's frankness did not pretend to be fake, and Captain Yu glared at him and said, "Are you starving to death and reincarnated? "Hehe, that's a good point, if you eat more and don't get sick, you will eat well, and if you eat too much, you will die. "Hahaha......" everyone in the carriage laughed.

Liu Xiaoqiang's ancestral home is from Shandong, and the traditional pancakes made by his mother are very delicious, smeared with elaborate sauces with a unique flavor, Captain Yu took a bite and praised it, looked at Liu Xiaoqiang and said: "I said buddy, what are you doing this time? "Ah? I, who do I ask? In order to cover up my father-son relationship, I always hide far away, afraid that others will see that it is not good to be tired, how can I have the time to inquire? Hey, I saw you and Staff Officer Yang muttering to each other, didn't you hear anything?" "And, don't mention it? Staff Officer Yang is also a tight-lipped person, with a strong sense of principle, and he won't say anything when I ask him, the face of the fellow countryman is useless. "Ah, did you turn him back? Don't even recognize the relationship with your fellow countrymen? You, did you say it earlier? Look at me beating out his baby's?" said Kuroko nonchalantly.

Captain Yu glared at him and said, "Are you disgusting? You still talk about while eating miles? You just beat his out, and he doesn't say you know?"

"Hehe, you still talk about me, aren't you the same?" said Kuroko with a smile.

He shook his head and said, "Let your baby take me to the ditch." Hey, Liu Xiaoqiang, do you know all these big leaders? Which departments are they in power? Let's analyze and analyze them. "Uh-huh, most people know, the Armament Department has the most people in the Operations Department, and there are few people in the Political Department and the Logistics Department?" "Well, that's it, about the same as I estimated?" "Oh, shhh Although Staff Officer Yang didn't say it, did I say that he came down to inspect the combat troops? He did not deny it outright, but said nervously, didn't he say it? Isn't this the place where there are no three hundred taels of silver, and the thieves don't recruit themselves? Haha, we have hope?" "Ahh

When Captain Yu heard this, he groaned a little and said: "Well, it's hard to say? However, the brothers' performance tonight is too good? At least let the big chiefs know that our strength is not good, that is, our combat strength? Isn't it a fist embroidered leg, can it be of great use? Will it take us into account and give us a chance to know? Well, Han Lao Liu, after going back the day after tomorrow, give Master Du some more rewards, so that he can teach us all the mastery without reservation, and our kung fu can be improved to a higher level." "Ahh

Captain Yu finished eating the pancakes in his hand, drank a sip of water and glared at him and said: "Hmph, old wealth fan, greed and hatred are the nature of human beings, you and I can't get rid of vulgarity, there is no shortage of seven emotions and six desires, is it really six unclear? is because there is no material foundation, where does it come from without worrying about food and clothing? But we must know how to predict the situation and plan early, and those who know the times are Junjie, once they go to the battlefield, they are lightly armed, and now these things have become things outside the body, superfluous burdens, aren't we know?" Instead of beating your chest at that time, it is better to come in handy now. "It's easy to be generous, it's easy to be a loser, if you can't go to the battlefield if you make a mistake in prediction?" "Haha, as long as you live, there are ways, you don't have confidence in me? "Well, look at this poplar forest, there are delicious foods, I don't even know what?" "Ah, why can't I see it?" "Why don't you do it?" Han Lao Liu said in astonishment.

Captain Yu said solemnly: "You have to follow the way of heaven and follow the laws of nature in everything you do, and the seasons are not forgiving, do you understand? Now is not the hunting season, if you kill your mother, the children will starve to death, will you create evil? Well, when it snows in winter, the animals here will become lice on bald heads and have nowhere to hide, so it's still safe to pull back a few cars. "Ahh "How much—how much? How many, how many tons, hundreds of tons of meat? I, my mother, I'm scared to death, why can't I see it?" Han Lao Liu said incredulously.

Captain Yu smiled and said: "Hehe, this is called not in his position and not in his politics, you baby only know that you have a fluttering mouth, if you want this to that? complain about the heavens and people, don't consider where things come from? I have to pay attention everywhere, worry about everything, everywhere I go, I have to watch and listen to all directions, and find the resources that are used for me, do you say that I am tired of living?" "Hehe, who made you the head of the family? Don't complain about the government. Money is not a good thing, everyone is fishing, the high places are not cold, everyone is going to the high places, the red face is in trouble, everyone is squeezing their heads and begging, this is life, sleeping, what are you worried about?" Han Lao Liu yawned and got out of the car, and the others also got out of the car to sleep.

Lying on the soft sand, looking at the starry sky and the stars shifting, the sun and the moon are eternal, endless thoughts come to my heart, eager to go to the battlefield, once the dream comes true, I don't know what to do?

The next day, the same training remained the same, the difference was that Captain Yu asked Heizi to lead the team out and left Liu Xiaoqiang behind, but he had doubts in his heart. Young people are curious, very interested in the unknown, and want to go when they think of it. When a person looks back on the past, the most regrettable thing is that he once wanted to do it but didn't do it, he was afraid of worrying about too many things, how to think about it is a problem, it is a risk, he is full of ambition but he does not dare to act, he missed the opportunity that he will never have in his life, how can he have no regrets?

After lunch, five or six daring soldiers, armed with shovels and pickaxes, once again entered the dangerous and unpredictable red sandstone expedition to see what was going on. After the baptism of sandstorms, the cave of the red sandstone has changed, collapsed several holes, Captain Yu climbed on the top of the red sandstone, and looked at the red sandstone that is more than 1,000 meters long and more than 300 meters wide, but there are no translucent holes, only sparse plants, which will not survive in the sun and die, waiting for the rain to save their lives, when will it rain and be far away?

The red sandstone is a little unusual, unconventional, and abruptly isolated, as if it came from somewhere, and some of it shouldn't be felt for no reason? No matter how you look at it, I can't figure it out? The sand around is white, why is the red sandstone red? It can't be a meteorite flying from the universe, right? Or is it some other foreign substance? He is not a geologist, he regrets the lack of knowledge at the moment, and he hates the lack of knowledge when it comes, and stomps his feet on the red sandstone.

Not only is Cher not interested in entering the hole, but she is also a little resistant, perhaps because she did not show a satisfactory move last time, and she is a little worried at the moment. Captain Yu didn't care what it thought, so he asked Han Lao Liu and a few people to pick up some firewood, and went into the hall where he stopped that day to set up a bonfire, plus the sunlight shining in several holes, and the black rumbling hall was unobstructed.

The collapse in the cave is very serious, the collapsed red sandstone fell into powder, the more it collapsed, the higher it accumulated, so that the strong sandstorm blew away, leaving the pimples naturally weathered, and against time, it could only get smaller and smaller until it disappeared.

The height of the cave is more than ten meters high, and the light of the fire rushes up, knocking down the loose sand and dripping down, "Bang Lala" as if it was raining. Several people clinged to the cave wall to see the place where the artificial excavation was made, it was like a roadway leading to the inside, the signs of artificial excavation were obvious, the potholes and corners were distinct, very regular, and it was undoubtedly done by manpower.

The bold Liu Xiaoqiang held a torch and walked forward along the laneway, the roadway was uneven, and the collapsed red sandstone almost filled the roadway, leaving people with no room to stand up, so they could only move with their heads bowed. There are some places where you have to climb to get through, and compared to Cher who is crawling, it seems to be easy to walk, and you will enter another cave by jumping up.

Unknown expeditions are extremely dangerous, and the danger comes from the unknown. Captain Yu observed the reliability of the roadway along the way, and in case a major landslide blocked the roadway, there was no return. If it is an ancient tomb, it must be a prominent person, there must be an anti-tomb robbery mechanism, bows and arrows, fireworks, poisonous gas, jack gates, quicksand stones, the book is all described like this, I don't know if it is true or not? I have not robbed the tomb, I can only imagine it, and naturally believe it is true.

Entering the door of this cave, it seems that there was once a door, which has collapsed in a long time, and there is more than a foot of floating soil in the cave, which is soft and soft when stepped on, and the dust is disturbed and floats, choking people to sneeze again and again. Captain Yu asked everyone to raise their feet and handle it gently, so as not to hold on to it and return in vain.

The four walls of this cave are still in shape, empty and nothing, there seems to be a painting on one wall, and when you look at it with a torch, you can only see mottled marks, and the patterns are not shaped, and you can't make out what you want.

Han Lao Liu said nervously: "I, I, I, I said comrades? This and this, is this and this a long time ago for the tomb robbers to steal it? How can there be nothing? Otherwise, why are you digging this cave?"

"Who knows what this cave is for? If it's an ancient tomb, there should be remains, right? There aren't even a single bone slag, so there's no way a tomb robber can steal all the remains? Maybe it's a place to live. Liu Xiaoqiang speculated.

When Captain Yu heard this, he said: "Well, the climate in this area is dry, and it is easy to form mummies, maybe the tomb robbers have stolen the remains." "Oh, what's a mummy?" "Mummies are dried corpses, intact for thousands of years, priceless, and of great archaeological value, and tomb robbers can't let them go. Captain Yu analyzed it by hearsay.

There are no other caves in this cave, a few people have inspected it, and they feel that there is nothing to be a little disappointed, this place can not stay for a long time, the forest monster is a little scared, it is better to leave, the behavior of asking for trouble is unreliable, in case something happens, it will not end well.

"Hoo ......" Xue'er suddenly made a threatening sound, and everyone looked back to see that its mane was upside down, its tail was on stilts, and it looked like it was facing a great enemy, everyone became nervous, and Han Lao Liu was so frightened that he was holding a submachine gun, still trembling all over.

Xue'er was in another place, threatening at the bare wall, Captain Yu took out a pistol bullet and loaded it, and came to Xue'er vigilantly, Xue'er looked at him with a fierce face, grinned at him, and then threatened at the wall, as if to say that there was something inside? He looked at the bare wall and there was nothing, raised his foot, and kicked on the wall, feeling a little hollow, he looked back at the surrounding situation worriedly, afraid that the secret mechanism described in the book was real, and it would be a big loss.

Liu Xiaoqiang, who was fearless and fearless, looked at his suspicious behavior and said, "Captain, what are you looking at? It's just such a big hole? What can it be?" "Don't act recklessly, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, it's better to keep an eye on it." Mmmm, there doesn't seem to be anything in this place, why is Cher so powerful? Its sense of smell is much more useful than we can use, is it that there is something in it?" "Huh...... If we find a monument like the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shi Huang, we will be developed? Give me a pickaxe and find out in a few clicks. The hard red sandstone is not easy to plan, but the pickaxe is as hard as iron, and sparks are flying.

Liu Xiaoqiang rounded his shoulders, made a lot of effort to eat, and made great achievements after a few shaves, "Bang Lala" collapsed for a while, revealing a big hole, and the black rumbling inside couldn't see the situation clearly, he stuffed the torch in, and the torch was immediately darkened and was about to be extinguished, indicating that there was a lack of oxygen inside, and the shadow was full of surprise, and said in surprise: "There is something, there is something, it seems to be an altar and jar, and there are calligraphy and painting ......."

As soon as he heard that there was something, everyone came to the spirit, Han Lao Liu couldn't wait to stuff his head into it, and was pulled out by Captain Yu and said: "Don't kill you? What if there is a secret channel mechanism in it, what if you scrap your head? As a soldier, you don't know how to take precautions?" "Ahhh We don't know anything, we don't know anything about the feng shui of the tomb, and we don't know the dangers that exist? Driven by curiosity, we rush in in a daze, what's the mistake that can't be made?" "Well, what, you mean that's it?" "Well, you just don't forget it? You have to take your time to see what is going on? "Ah, no, no, won't it?" Han Lao Liu realized the danger, subconsciously raised his hand, touched his neck, and his head was still there, and he was scared in his heart.

Captain Yu is still confident and sophisticated, he scattered a few people to be on guard, even if there is danger, there is still a care for each other, and it will not be a nest. He looked at the flame of the torch and saw that it was a little dark red, indicating that the air here was not circulating, so many people exhaled, and it would not last long, and he had to hurry.

Holding a torch to check the structure of the cliff, the place of collapse is different from the cliff, as if it was built up separately, but you can't see the gaps in the bricking, can it be said that the age has been integrated for a long time? The firelight reflected in the hole is leisurely, like a floating ghost, the dusty altars and jars are arranged in an orderly manner, and the books and paintings are stacked neatly, like a treasure trove, or a museum, indicating that no tomb robbers have patronized, otherwise how can they be arranged in an orderly manner and stacked neatly? Is this a sealed treasure trove? If it weren't for Cher's keen sense of smell, humans wouldn't be able to find out.

For the sake of caution, Captain Yu stuffed the shovel in and shook it a few times, but there was no reaction, imagining whether he wanted to go in and have a look? Take a few convincing things and send them to the archaeological expert Teacher Li, so that she can come to archaeology and archaeology, maybe there will be major discoveries? Wouldn't he and his subordinates be sorry for the ancestors and ancestors who carefully protected these things?

If we are confused and ruined, and we are ashamed of our ancestors and conscience, can we still be said to be a cultured person? Since we have culture, we must protect our culture and be a cultured person with a conscience.

At this moment, I suddenly remembered that in a magazine, I saw that France fell in World War II, and a platoon of the German army rushed into the Louvre, the treasure house of the world, and the beast-like German army was about to loot and burn it, but the platoon commander was a literate commander, and said to his subordinates: Everything here is a symbol of the progress of all human civilization, and destroying the treasures here is a crime against all mankind, we don't want to be the scum of mankind, let people curse from generation to generation, we must protect it well, and prevent others from destroying it, so that we have today's Louvre, is it not as good as the German army like beasts......

The torch suddenly "crackled" and dimmed, and the vigilant Xue'er also stood upside down and became restless, and there was a sound of the cliff cracking, faintly reaching his ears, and he immediately realized that he should evacuate quickly, otherwise he would not be able to get out. With a wave of his hand, he ran with Xue'er, and everyone followed, crawling into the hall, followed by the sound of a rumbling collapse, which was terrifying.

This place can not stay for a long time, follow the way, quickly escape to the red sandstone outside, the electric welding like the sun pierced people can not open their eyes, after a while to adapt to the reluctance to open their eyes, all the holes in the red sandstone, dust is like smoke billowing straight up, I don't know where in the hole is a big collapse.

Several people were stunned, sitting on the sand beam, looking at each other with gray faces, Xue'er barked wildly at the hole, as if something was about to rush out? Captain Yu had a premonition that something was not good, and signaled to Liu Xiaoqiang to be vigilant, and Han Lao Liu aimed his submachine gun at the hole, ready to shoot.

The billowing dust endured and permeated the poplar forest, like a net that stretched continuously. At this moment, the wind is beautiful, there is no strong wind to disperse, and the thick dust, like a reluctance to leave the red sandstone, is reluctant to linger around the landscape, what is deliberately covering?

In the midst of everyone's vigilant gaze, in a hole in the distance, suddenly "swished" out of five or six living creatures the same color as the sand, looming in the dust, before the lightning and stone fire could be seen clearly, they disappeared into the poplar forest, Xue'er shot out like an arrow to conquer, Captain Yu shouted to stop.

I don't know what it is? When the catastrophe comes, they fly separately, since they have not offended themselves, why rush to destroy the ecological balance here? Look at Xue'er's demeanor is already peaceful, it means that there is nothing in the cave.

Liu Xiaoqiang took out a cigarette, took out one for him, lit it and said: "This red sandstone is located in the middle of nowhere, inaccessible, isn't it Genghis Khan's treasure house?" "Cut, no matter how remote it is, can it escape the attention of the treasure diggers of all dynasties? This is the mainland, not the plateau no man's land we have been to, some experts often visit here, and everything is gone in the caves that can be seen, which shows that there are not a few people who come here, and the valuable and worthless things have been taken away. "Oh, the cave we found? no one else can find it. "Well, what kind of sealed cave will not be discovered without a master with a keen sense of smell and a super-first-class like Xue'er. Just like the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, for thousands of years, people don't know that there is still a library cave? During the Republic of China, a royal Taoist priest occasionally discovered the book cave, which shocked the world, and explorers from all over the world came one after another, and the good things left by the ancestors with great effort were lost abroad, making people speechless and full of traitors. He said indignantly.

Han Lao Liu looked frustrated, and said regretfully: "We just found the baby, why didn't we have a chance to take a few things out to take a look?

"Hmph, our lives are good enough, if we don't run fast, we would have been crushed and become ancestors this time?" Liu Xiaoqiang said sarcastically.

Captain Yu finished his cigarette, stuffed the cigarette butt into the sand and said: "Well, brothers, this is a secret discovered by a few of us, and a few of us have to keep our mouths shut, and we can't tell it? Let people with ulterior motives know, we will definitely destroy everything here, and we will become the initiators of the destruction of historical relics, the culprit of the state, and the crime is unforgivable?

Several people were silent for a while, and they all said that they kept secrets, and Captain Yu said with relief: "Very good, these things are worthless to us, because we don't have the ability and level, and we know the value contained in them? That's the end of today's events, we haven't seen anything, nothing has happened, and if we erase everything we see from our minds and force ourselves to forget, we won't get into trouble. Go back, thirsty, after tomorrow, the old peace of the world will be restored, maybe you will never come back again in this life. ”

Han Lao Liu knew that there were no demons and ghosts in the cave, and his suspicious mentality was appeased, and he said happily: "Captain, are you still right? Gods and ghosts are just legends, don't you know that they have scared me to death in the past few days?" "Hahaha...... The gods and ghosts have a meeting, and you and Kuroko should be notified of the two cow ghosts and snake gods......" "Ahh Han Lao Liu rolled over and hurriedly ran away.

Killing pigs and slaughtering sheep, Han Lao Liu is an expert, several people tied up the pig that was pulled back yesterday, and hung it on a poplar tree branch, Han Lao Liu, who is skillful, is a well-known butcher, with a knife in his hand, there are rules and regulations, three times five divided by two on the big unloading of eight pieces, after a while, it was stewed in the pot and the aroma is overflowing, the efficiency is amazing, the legend of Ku Ding to solve the cow is just so.

Captain Yu was eating cucumbers in his hands, beckoning to Liu Xiaoqiang, who was idle, and he ran over and said, "What's the matter, Captain?" "Drive in the car and take a walk, this poplar forest hasn't been seen yet, will there be any new discoveries?"

"Uh-okay. Liu Xiaoqiang ran over and drove Han Laoliu's car over, Han Laoliu ran over suspiciously, asking what he was doing? He also wanted to go out for a ride, his work was done, and he squeezed into the cab and set off.

The huge poplar forest, I don't know where to go, as long as the car can pass through, rambling everywhere without looking. After the sandstorm, the woods are no longer sheltered, the huge canopy is gone, the sparse leaves are scattered, hanging on the high branches and forming a climate, weak and listless, wilting and lingering.

The sun shines unrestrainedly on the sand, and the trees, where there was still some vegetation, are now bare and lifeless, and the newly born sand dunes and sand beams are barren and grassy, and the layers of irregular ripples, like solidified waves, stretch endlessly to the point where they cannot be seen.

The car is like a small boat, suddenly on the top of the waves, suddenly at the bottom of the valley, dodging the fallen dead trees and branches, a breeze of wind climbed up a large sand beam, it is incredible to look at it, there are many red sandstones, dotted among the trees, there are several huge red sandstones, the height exceeds the poplar trees, the transparent heat wave on the red sandstone rolls, it looks like it is burning from a distance.

When the car drove closely, it was no different from the red sandstone in front of it, and it was also a size full of holes, so I don't know what was hidden inside? Han Lao Liu looked a little nervous, took off the submachine gun on the gun mount, and prepared to face the battle.

Captain Yu glared angrily and said, "And, why are you nervous? I just said that I wasn't scared, why is it here again?" "Mmmm, I saw clearly in the red sandstone just now, there are no demons and monsters, it may not be the same here, is it the same? Hmph, or are you right, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years." "Cut, here and there are the same, they are all Yadan landforms, originally this place was connected, after the wind and rain separated, the hard part remained, forming the current strange shape, this is the magic of nature, breathtaking, nothing terrible?" "Hmph, you said it lightly? What if there is anything? There are regrets in the world, but there is no medicine for regrets? Let's go back? The brigade headquarters is about to come back. Han Lao Liu said fearfully.

Captain Yu raised his wrist and looked at his watch, time did not allow him to explore here, and looked at Han Lao Liu and said viciously: "Are you angry with me? Why are you running here? Death is a young man, don't you take a look at this place? I won't have a chance from now on, you know? It's full of regrets when I think about it?" "Tut-tut, what's the regret about this? Isn't it just the bare red sandstone? And the commonplace of poplar forests?" "What if, as you said, Genghis Khan's treasure trove?" "Ah, yes, is it possible? I, I, why can't I see it?" "Hahaha...... Let your baby's pig eyes see it, it's still called a treasure land? Mmmm, this area is the Xixia Kingdom in the Song and Yuan dynasties, Genghis Khan conquered Europe, but the Xixia Kingdom could not conquer, besieged the city for ten years, and finally after the city was broken, it was a slaughter of the city, leaving not a single inch of grass, the Xixia Kingdom seemed to disappear out of thin air, leaving almost no words, and it became the history of the broken dynasty, so that historians could choke their wrists?" Captain Yu said.

When Han Lao Liu heard this, he said: "What, me, me, what we saw just now? Maybe it's the historical data of the Western Xia Kingdom, isn't it just connected?" "Ahhh Han Lao Liu suddenly had an epiphany and didn't dare to continue.

Captain Yu raised his hand coldly, punched him and said, "Hmph, if you dare to talk nonsense, I will destroy you? "Remember, remember, don't you take an example, and say another word, I cut off my tongue myself, don't worry, don't worry?" Hehe, it's not for me to rest assured, you can rest assured yourself, we can't be together for the rest of our lives, we are scheming soldiers, we go straight and don't hide our personal interests, and it's not easy for others to say? Use all the resources and information that can be used, and use unscrupulous means to achieve your own goals, you will never show mercy, and this is the case with the sinister rivers and lakes. Captain Yu reminded.

Looking at the highest sand dune in front of him with his finger, Liu Xiaoqiang climbed the sand dune with a few feet of accelerator, and several people got out of the car and looked condescendingly, the dense red sandstone, like a chess piece, stood irregularly in the poplar forest, faintly felt like the ancient battlefield of the Jin Ge Iron Horse, containing endless killing opportunities, making people have a chilling feeling.

The sunset and the sunset, the remnant sun is like blood, and the red sandstone that is gradually darkening changes color in the sunset, looking hideous and terrifying. The noise of tired birds returning to their nests rose and fell with each other, and a large flock of chubby magpies skimmed overhead, landed on the red sandstone and disappeared, as if they had disappeared into thin air. The nocturnal animals flashed in their eyes, and Han Lao Liu, who was as timid as a mouse, didn't dare to stop when he saw it, and hurriedly pushed him into the car, urging Liu Xiaoqiang to leave quickly.

The car rushed down the sand dunes, a gust of wind came to the campsite, the sunspot who came back from training couldn't see the three of them, so he was a little helpless, Han Lao Liu got out of the car and was about to eat, he didn't guard against the sudden attack of the sunspot, he raised his foot coldly, kicked him in the ass, glared and said, "Why don't you cook well? Keep up with those two second goods? What is good with you?" What did you see today?"

"See, no, nothing, just nothing?" he almost slipped out of his mouth without accepting the lesson.

Heizi saw that he was spitting and spitting, and realized that there was fraud in it, so he wanted to ask further, Liu Xiaoqiang parked the car and walked over and said, "Master has worked hard, is it going well today?" "Hehe, that's it, the current recruits are already able to drive, even if the car breaks down, and they know what to do? "Oh-what didn't you do? This ...... There was also a piece of red sandstone in front of it, which was unprecedented in scale, and we went over to look at it, and we came back without any fart. "Oh, how do I think Han Lao Liu is a little uneasy? "He is afraid that the meat will not be stewed, and it will be troublesome if it comes out of the pot? Liu Xiaoqiang made up a story to deal with.

The honest sunspot was easy to dismiss, and Captain Yu walked over and said enthusiastically as if he hadn't seen him for many days: "Congratulations on coming back safely, how is the training level of the recruits?" "Cut, you haven't seen you for a day, so you don't know what the level of the recruits is? Are you trying to give my old man maggots? Can't see the old man, I'm old? I can't stand your toss, stay away from me. "Hehe, have you made progress? Do you know who I just met?" "Who? I, do I know?" "Besides, why don't you know me?" "Uh-I know? There's no one else here? Who else can I know?" "Do you know the impermanence of black ......and white?" "Ahh......h

"To be continued"

Lao Tie helps to become popular, likes and follows, collects, forwards, encourages encouragement, and merit is immeasurable.
