Precious memories can't help but make Laura's eyes gradually turn red...
At this moment, Laura's fingers happened to touch a bump on the wall of the stele.
When she raised her head and looked at the stele wall suspiciously, she realized that her father's name "Richard" was a bit strange, and the "R" letter was obviously slightly protruding than other letters!
Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, Laura put her finger on the letter "R" without hesitation and pressed down!
Click!
Accompanied by the sudden sound of gears turning, the ground of the stele wall slowly sank a few centimeters downward.
Immediately afterwards, on the wall of the stele, a hidden secret door popped out!
Seeing everything that happened in front of her eyes, Laura opened her mouth slightly, her expression full of surprise and doubt.
She never thought that the most inconspicuous family cemetery in the entire manor actually hides such a secret mechanism.
Perhaps, it is precisely because of its inconspicuousness that the people who built it chose to build mechanisms here...
Judging from the location and opening method of the mechanism, this mechanism should be built by his father.
That is to say, behind this secret door lies the father's secret.
Thinking of this, Laura frowned, opened the secret door without hesitation, and planned to go in to find out.
Through the sunlight coming from the door, Laura can vaguely see that this is a room with a lot of space.
Following the stairs, Laura saw the switch on the wall and pressed it casually.
With a "snap", the light tubes turned on one after another, and the bright light instantly illuminated the entire secret room!
What catches the eye is a space similar to a studio.
Whether it's on the table, on the wall, or on the floor, there are ancient objects of various civilizations everywhere, statues, ancient paintings, antiques, everything that one expects to find.
After a cursory scan, Laura was surprised to find that all the valuable antiques were stored in this secret room!
Although I know that my father is not at home all year round, he often goes out to explore archaeology.However, Laura never imagined that he secretly hid so many treasures.
"Father, is this your secret base..."
Whispering, Laura looked around, and her eyes finally stopped at the work space against the wall.
On the desktop of a desk, there is a square cardboard box.
Judging from the thick layer of dust on the cover of the cardboard box, no one has been in this room for a long time...
With a "huh", the dust on the box was blown away, and Laura, who was frowning, opened the carton casually.
Looking inside the cardboard box, Laura noticed the portable tape recorder placed on various materials at first sight.
The moment she saw the tape recorder, Laura's brown eyes couldn't help flashing a touch of nostalgia.
She still remembers that when her father was working in the study, he would often hold this tape recorder and record everything he found.
Moreover, he specifically asked Laura not to mess with his tape recorder.
The curious little Laura, of course, would not be obedient. Instead, she secretly recorded her own voice in the tape recorder when her father was not at home.
The father was not angry when he discovered his daughter's behavior. Instead, he used the tape recorder as a tool for whispering to his daughter. From time to time, he recorded what he wanted to say to his daughter on the tape of the tape recorder.
It can be said that this tape recorder carries many fond memories of Laura and her father.
Thinking of this, the corners of Laura's mouth twitched slightly, then she picked up the tape recorder, clicked, and pressed the play button!
3 Chapter Thirty: The Mystery of Eternal Life, the Tomb of the Prophet
The tape in the tape recorder began to rotate slowly.
Inside the tape recorder, there was a rustling sound first, as if a machine that hadn't been running for a long time was reading a tape.
A few seconds later, a male voice that Laura will never forget, sounded from the recorder:
"Life is like a relentless river, everything is fleeting."
"We grow old, decay, and die, but what do we leave behind?"
"A pile of bones? Or dust?"
"What about the soul? Will it remain in the world after the body returns to dust?"
"I believe it will."
After confirming that the owner of the voice was her father, Laura focused on two things. While listening to the contents of the tape, she rummaged through the box and took out all the relevant information, photos, maps, and dedications. ...
"There is a truth at the heart of many myths and stories, and it's not scientific truth, but something deeper..."
"Some kind of key that can solve the mystery of eternal life!"
"I may have found the next clue, but I'm not the only one looking..."
Having said that, the voice in the tape recorder paused, and seemed to organize the language in the brain a little, before continuing:
"They're following me, watching my every move. Now I know they're the Holy Trinity, a very murderous ancient sect plotting to control the future of mankind..."
"For the sake of the family I love most, I must act with caution, and if anything happened to Laura or Anna, I will never forgive myself..."
Having said that, Laura's father's voice came to an abrupt end.In the tape recorder, only the noise of "rustling" remains...
Laura didn't turn off the tape recorder immediately, but pricked up her ears with an expectant expression, as if she was waiting for something.
However, the cruel facts disappointed her.
His father would always record what he wanted to say to her at the end of the tape.But this time, no...
With a "click", Laura who turned off the tape recorder casually said with a serious expression:
"The mystery of eternal life? The Holy Trinity? Father, what trouble did you get yourself into..."
Laura, who was aroused by her father's curiosity, sat down on the office chair and planned to start searching from her father's work space.
Opening the drawer on the right, Laura found a stack of fake passports, different countries, different names, the only thing in common was her father's ID photo.
Due to the secrecy of exploration and archaeology, Laura was not too surprised.
After searching the drawers on both sides, Laura found a small box full of audio tapes in the left drawer.
Each tape was marked with a name and number with a marker pen, Prophet 2, Prophet 3, Prophet 3, and so on...
There are more than a dozen tapes, but only the first tape of "Prophet 1" is missing.
At this moment, Laura suddenly looked at the tape recorder on the desktop as if thinking of something.
When she turned on the tape recorder, she found the tape marked "Prophet 1".
After taking out the tape and putting it back in the box, Laura saw the side of the carton, and there was a sticky note that said "Tomb of the Prophet".
"The Tomb of the Prophet?"
This strange and mysterious name became the only clue for Laura to continue to dig.
While playing the audio tapes in the box in order, she carefully checked the various research materials in the carton...
"It is rumored that the Prophet possesses an artifact called the Holy Source, which can bring him back to life..."
"The Holy Trinity Sect has been persistently hunting down the Prophet and his followers. Finally, they caught up with them in the hidden oasis..."
"In the Prophet's Tomb, the Holy Trinity and the disciples of the Prophet fought a final battle..."
Immersed in her father's magnetic voice, Laura's strong curiosity about mysterious things made Laura forget the time, staying in this secret room for most of the day!
When her stomach growled continuously, Laura suddenly realized that she had been in this secret room for too long.
After stretching and twisting her sore neck, Laura stood up and moved her body.
Looking at all kinds of objects densely placed in the secret room, Laura frowned and said to herself:
"It's not bad here, but it's too far from the refrigerator..."
. . .
The following week, Laura had a very fulfilling life.
She transferred the relevant materials of the "Tomb of the Prophet" to her father's study one after another, so that it would be more convenient for herself, and she would not be too addicted and forget to fill her stomach.
After a lot of information and in-depth research, Laura has roughly grasped the story of "The Prophet":
A prophet with no name and no origin came to Constantinople, the capital of Byzantium in the tenth century, and preached in Constantine Square.
The Western Church headed by the Holy Trinity was afraid of the mysterious power it displayed, so they tried to kill the prophet.
However, when the disciples of the Prophet took the body of the Prophet to an oasis to build a tomb for him, the Prophet suddenly came back to life!
Knowing that the Prophet was still alive, the Holy Trinity sent knights to fight the final decisive battle with the Prophet's believers at the Prophet's Tomb.
In the decisive battle, the artifact "Holy Source" that can endow human beings with immortality is missing...
And Laura's father, after a lot of research, believes that the "sacred source" is still preserved in the tomb of the prophet.
As long as you get it, you can unlock the secret of immortality and change everything!
The more she researched her father, the more Laura felt that her father was only one step away from the "Tomb of the Prophet".
Having experienced everything that happened on Yamatai, Laura knows very well that there are mysterious forces in this world that cannot be explained by science.
Although these mysterious powers are dangerous, they make people flock to them.
If the legend of Yamatai is true, then this legend about the prophet is very likely to be true too!
Cross the boundary between life and death to unlock the secret of immortality...
Thinking of these fascinating mysterious stories, and the Crawford family's adventure genes engraved in Laura's bones, she is ready to move, and she can't wait to unravel the truth of these stories by herself.
Whether it is to satisfy her own curiosity or to complete her father's unfinished business, Laura made up her mind to find this "sacred source"!
It is precisely because of the prophet's story that Laura suddenly found that she finally found what she wanted to do, that is:
Go to unknown lands for exploration and adventure!
Look for those legends that ordinary people can't understand and science can't explain, and the truth behind them!
Chapter 331 A Dark Rainy Night, Anna Visits
clap la la...
Under the dark night, the misty drizzle shrouded the deserted streets.
After working hard all day in the manor, Laura just wanted to take advantage of the night and come out to get some fresh air and eat something to fill her stomach.
However, there are unforeseen circumstances.
Just as she enjoyed her coffee and donuts and was about to go home, it started to rain suddenly.
Perhaps it was because her mind was full of things about the tomb of the prophet, so that when Laura went out, she forgot the first rule of going out in London and always remember to bring an umbrella!
In desperation, Laura had no choice but to cover the hood of the lined coat, put her hands in the pockets of the leather jacket, let the raindrops fall on her body, and walked slowly towards the manor.
The street was very quiet. Amid the "rustle" of the rain, Laura could even hear the sound of her Martin boots stepping on the wet ground.
clack... clack...
Walking straight along the sidewalk, Laura seemed to feel some abnormal noise, her brows frowned, her feet suddenly stopped, and she turned her head abruptly!
Behind her, except for the dim street lights and a few cars parked on the side of the road, there was no one.
Seeing this, hidden under the hood, her tightly furrowed eyebrows couldn't help but relax a little.
Ever since the paparazzi who had been watching her all the time had withdrawn from the manor, they had been replaced by a force of unknown origin.
Counting this time, Laura has felt several times that someone seems to be following her when she goes out.
However, the opponent's tracking skills seemed to be very good, and no flaws were revealed.Moreover, apart from hanging far behind her, he did not make any other more threatening moves.
Unable to confront the other party head-on, Laura could only increase her vigilance and reduce the frequency of leaving the manor.
Thinking of this, Laura couldn't help speeding up her pace...
. . .
When she returned to the dark manor, she saw a faint light shining in the room on the second floor on the east side of the mansion from a distance.
Seeing this, Laura frowned, as if realizing something.
The shining room is Laura's father's study and her current studio.
