The whole empire is watching my live broadcast of Tomb Raiding [Interstellar]

A red desert predator flitted across the rolling yellow sand like a ferocious beast rushing forward. It was more than two meters high and weighed fifteen tons. The crawler tires left two deep marks on the sand.

The sand curtain is boundless and unpredictable, like a face that is good at camouflage. One second it was smooth and flawless, but the next moment it was wrinkled and vicissitudes for no reason.

Sitting on the co-pilot, Du Leding looked out the window, saw the former desert in the sand and rain blown up by the blue wind, and the hoarse voice of Crazy Lin was still echoing in his ears.

Glass clock, thick amber, small trough wine dripping pearl red.Ever since he set off for the Great Belly Mountain, he never heard this ethereal song when he dreamed back in the middle of the night.He suspected that he might have suffered from "rebirth sequelae" before, and he would uncontrollably replay some things he experienced in his previous life in his head.

But after thinking about it carefully, he heard the singing voice after rebirth, which was very different from that of Crazy Lin. There was no rustling noise in his throat. .

Just like the desert in front of him, the surface is no different from the place he went to before his death in his previous life, the same lifelessness, the same desolation and loneliness.

But what is covered under the mad sand is completely different.In Qixin Town in the northwest, there are ancient tombs buried one on top of the other, and there may be several cultural layers. An inexperienced thief may find a few treasures if he digs it casually.

Under the Tekapo Desert, there is only one mausoleum, which still does not belong to this planet.I don't know what kind of resting place the ancient tomb of another dimension they are about to find this time is.

"Not far ahead is the warning area, where the military experiment I mentioned before is there." Su Teng said softly.

Du Leding stared indifferently at the dry desert outside the car window, but from the reflection of the window glass, he saw the outline of Su Teng's side face.Sometimes he couldn't help but wonder what kind of bad experience Su Teng had in the past, so that he had to rely on someone imagined in his mind to survive.

And what does that person look like? Is it based on the image formed by someone close to Su Teng, or is it completely imagined?

How similar is that person to him?

Sometimes he would have an urge to ask Su Teng these questions, but he suppressed it several times.There was an inexplicable panic in his heart, afraid that before he got the answer, he would see another person in Su Teng's eyes.

His emotional experience was blank, and only his right hand loved him for so many years.Encountered such a complicated and difficult problem suddenly, he was at a loss and could only pretend to be stupid.

What's wrong with me, what the hell is I struggling with? - Du Le Ding thought scratching his heart.

"Are there any protective measures in the warning area, how do we get in?" Shi Qianjin, who was sitting in the back seat, asked.

When Su Teng said that there were four people on this journey, Du Leding never thought that the fourth person would be a daughter of time.He seemed to have a bad relationship with Su Teng, and when he showed up, he was covered in thorns, and asked bitterly, "Are the two of you going out together wherever you go now?"

Su Teng was as cold as ice, and had no intention of answering.Du Leding couldn't help but grinned and fought back: "It's better than some people alone."

Since then, Shi Qianjin has not spoken all the way, and Charlie always feels uncomfortable sitting next to him, as if he will be poked by the thorns on his body if he gets closer.

Su Teng replied lightly: "The precautionary measures are only symbolic."

There are few people around here, and it is three or four hours away from the nearest town.The so-called security zone is just blocked by simple barbed wire. Unless it is the day of the military experiment, no one will control it at all.

Ten minutes later, several people saw the thin and fragile barbed wire. Su Teng drove to the door, stopped the car and jumped off.The iron mesh door was uselessly concealed. He walked closer and saw some inexplicable things hanging between the intertwined wires like fishing nets.

Su Teng took a closer look, and it seemed to be some animal hair and bird feathers, with dried purple-black blood stains on them. It looked like some extremely stupid creatures past the barbed wire for no reason, and were stabbed by sharp stabs. Even a layer of fur was scraped off.

Su Teng opened the iron mesh door, returned to the car and drove in.Not long after, Du Leding woke up from his drowsiness, and the unchanging scene outside the window, as if replayed by the camera, suddenly changed strangely.

He squeezed his eyes and said in disbelief, "Is there something wrong with my eyes, or something wrong with this desert?"

The area that was originally yellow and clear began to be stained with a layer of green in this area.And it's not a refreshing grass green, but rather like the white hair green that grows on spoiled food, exuding a smell of corruption.

Su Teng said: "When I came here to watch the military exercise, I heard someone talk about it. Many years ago, the military buried a biochemical weapon with trace radiation in the sand in this area. The military withdrew after the emitted pollution could not spread on a large scale. But when they checked again a few months later, they found that the sand in the area within one kilometer of the burial site had turned green."

After repeated inspections, it was confirmed that there was no abnormality, and there were no problems in the towns in the desert, and finally the matter was over.

So far, nothing has happened other than this small patch of sand turning green.

The anomalous range of the quantum field is very close to this area. After arriving, the four of them jumped out of the car and began to prepare.

Su Teng opened the trunk of the car, took out a small box, and took out a spherical metal object from it.After he pressed the switch on it, he dropped it on the ground.

A few slender "legs" popped out of the metal ball, and after turning around on the ground, it turned into a mechanical insect like a Transformer.

This thing looks a bit like a giant spider, about the height of a person's calf.Su Teng set up the program with the computer, and the mechanical spider began to dig in the sand, and got down after a while.

It was very windy and extremely dry, and Charlie couldn't take it anymore after staying for a while, shaking the sand that had blown into his hair, and got into the car again.

Du Leding stepped on the pedal outside the car door and looked into the distance, and could vaguely see the outlines of some mountain ridges.The air at the horizon was distorted and deformed under the scorching sun, and there were vague figures floating among them. Against the backdrop of the dark mountains, it looked like a group of people were walking towards this side.

When Shi Qianjin walked to Du Leding's side, she seemed to be looking into the distance, but she was actually looking at Su Teng.

Du Le Ding Fu thought deeply about why Shi Qianjin was full of hostility towards him, and couldn't help but shook his head and smiled.

"What are you laughing at?" Shi Qianjin's eyes slanted, and a sharp and menacing gaze appeared from the corner of her eyes.

"Entertain yourself." Du Leding waved his hand, "By the way, why did you join the investigation this time, and the research project is finished?"

He didn't know what Shi Qianjin's personal research project was about, but the two of them stood like this, and the air between them was drier than the desert climate, which was very uncomfortable.

Shi Qianjin didn't know what to think of, and there was a slight smile on her lips: "It's still in progress, but it should be soon."

Du Leding stared at the dead fish eyes: "Oh, then you are very fat."

"What about you?" Shi Qianjin looked Du Leding up and down, her eyes were like a scanner, as if she could see through a person with just a few glances, "Why do you keep following Su Teng?"

Du Leding laughed and said, "What do you mean by following Su Teng all the time? It's like I'm following a moron."

Shi Qianjin curled her lips: "You are neither a member of our archaeological team nor a student of our school, so what exactly do you do?"

Before Du Leding could answer, Su Teng came over and said, "It's not that he followed me, it's that I want to follow him."

After finishing speaking, Shi Qianjin didn't even look at it, and went around to the back of the car.

Du Leding raised his eyebrows at Shi Qianjin owed and proudly, got into the car, and suddenly felt that this piece of yellow sand looked a little cute.

Charlie stood on the back seat, drank half a bottle of water, and sighed happily: "How do those people who live in the desert endure this kind of dryness? My hair is all curled up."

"I'm used to living here all the time." Du Leding looked at Su Teng who was talking to Shi Qianjin from the rearview mirror, and said absent-mindedly.

As if feeling Duleding's gaze, Su Teng suddenly looked over and smiled at him.

Du Le Ding frowned, thinking what a joke, what's so funny, uncle is very sad now, you know.

He turned his eyes away annoyed, and at this moment, he saw something floating behind Su Teng and Shi Qianjin from the corner of his eye.

He immediately opened the car door and looked back. There was nothing unusual there, not even a bird in the desert. The scene just now seemed like he had seen it wrong, and it had no sense of reality.

He froze for a while, then closed the car door and sat back.Soon those two people also got into the car, and turned on the computer to watch the video transmitted by the mechanical spider.

The mechanical spider's excavation speed was very fast. At this time, it had reached a depth of 200 meters underground, and it was still continuing. Since there were unweathered stones at about 300 meters underground, the speed of the mechanical spider gradually slowed down.

The screen was pitch black, and several people stared at it for a while, feeling very bored.Just when someone was about to fall asleep, the ever-increasing number on the scale stopped and got stuck at a position of about 500 meters.

Su Teng turned on the night vision device in the spider's eyes, and controlled the mechanical spider to dig left and right through the computer, but it seemed to have landed on a thick concrete floor and could not continue down.

Du Leding suspected that he had dug into the underground palace, but he couldn't see anything on the green screen.After a while, the mechanical spider seemed to find a way, and got into a very narrow gap.

As the mechanical spider moved forward, the gap became wider and wider. Shi Qianjin pointed at the shaking silhouette on the screen from behind and said, "It looks like a pipe."

Du Leding nodded: "It may be the drainage channel."

The original environment of the underground palace may have groundwater passing through, and the rainwater seeping into the ground will also cause erosion to the mausoleum, so drainage channels are often designed when constructing the underground palace.However, it generally only exists in relatively large tombs. If this is really a drainage channel, it means that the scale of the tombs below should not be small.

A "professional" excitement surged in Du Leding's heart. Since he was reborn, he went down to two tombs in a row. He hasn't seen anything valuable yet. Maybe he can get some rare things this time.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glanced at the archaeologist beside him, and found that Su Teng was looking at him with a half-smile.

Su Teng seemed to know what Du Leding was thinking, and silently mouthed at him: confiscated.

Du Leding made a grimace, and responded with a mouth shape: Don't think about it!

But soon, he was a little disappointed to find that the pipe was getting longer and wider, almost becoming a tunnel that could accommodate a train, but it still had no end.The mechanical spider moved forward tirelessly, and after about half an hour, the situation in the cave still remained unchanged.

Charlie had already fallen asleep in extreme boredom, with one paw pressed on his evenly rising and falling stomach, and he didn't know what he dreamed of.

Shi Qianjin couldn't sit still: "Could this be some kind of underground facility dug by the military?"

Su Teng shook his head: "It's hard to say, so far I can't see what this tunnel is for."

Duleding opened a can of drink, took two sips, and remembered something: "Many people used to dig holes in the desert to build underground houses, underground bars, and underground hotels. When the sandstorm hits, it is very difficult to stay below. Safe. Maybe this is a temporary shelter."

Shi Qianjin sighed and complained, "But this is too long!"

Duleding's patience was also disappearing bit by bit, wishing he could end this tedious exploration immediately and find out the truth buried under the yellow sand.

"There's someone there." Su Teng said suddenly.

Both Du Leding and Shi Qianjin were taken aback, and their distracted attention immediately focused on the screen, desperately looking for the figure, but the miserable green image was still a tunnel that didn't change, there was no one there!

Su Teng stretched out his hand, and the other two looked up. It turned out that a group of people came from the desert.

Du Leding glanced at Su Teng very disturbingly: "Hun'er was almost scared off by you."

Su Teng bent his eyes, reached out and touched Du Leding's head: "This way it won't fall off."

Du Leding was stunned, never expecting that he was patted and killed by a man who was several years younger than him. He didn't recover until Su Teng opened the door and got off the car. The soul who hadn't been scared just now Finally flew to cloud nine.

Shi Qianjin chuckled with unknown meaning, and also jumped out of the car.

The sound of opening and closing the car door twice woke up the snoring Charlie. He rubbed his eyes and asked, "How is it? Did you find anything?"

Du Leding pulled back the soul floating in the sky, scratched his face: "No."

Charlie asked blankly, "Why did they go?"

"A friend came from afar to pick up the guests." Du Leding opened the door and stood on the footboard. Four people ran over from a distance, three men and one woman. They were dressed as travelers and held a professional camera in their hands.

When they got close, one of the men waved at them and smiled warmly: "How are you guys?"

This enthusiasm was blown to the front of the car by the desert wind, and immediately died down in front of Su Teng's ice wall.

Su Teng asked calmly: "Who are you, why did you enter the warning zone?"

The few people looked at each other, thinking that they were being interrogated by the authorities, and immediately put away their smiles and opened their personal terminals in a serious manner, displaying their basic personal information on the holographic light screen: "We just want to go through the Tekapo Desert, travel through 54 towns, and take pictures along the way. .”

Su Teng frowned, ignoring their strange words and deeds, and the two sides fell into a deadlock.

Thinking of Su Teng being different in front of others and himself, Du Leding felt a sour melancholy, like the taste of sugar mixed with salt rolling in his heart, a layer of sweet and salty Sha.

He jumped out of the car and said with a smile to the man standing at the front: "We are here for investigation, not to collect tolls, so don't be so nervous."

Du Le Ding had an aura that could make people relax, and those people were relieved immediately, and started laughing and joking again. Although they were dressed in dust, they were full of energy.

Shi Qianjin leaned crookedly on the front of the car, and asked casually: "Then how many towns have you been to now?"

"Twelve!" said the round-faced girl.Her eyes are small, her eyelashes are thick, and she loves to smile. She can hardly see her eyes, and she looks very festive.

Ever since he entered the desert, Charlie felt bored. Now that there was something exciting to join in, how could he stay still? He immediately opened the car door and jumped down. Da Da Da ran to Du Le Ding's side, and instantly became friends with him.

He climbed onto Duleding's shoulder, looked at the four of them one by one, and asked cheerfully, "Where is your next stop?"

"Terry Town." The man interlocking fingers with the round-faced girl said, "Actually, we have an unkind request. I don't know where you are going, so why don't you give us a ride?"

Shi Qianjin replied straightforwardly: "It's not convenient, we're not going anywhere."

Disappointment suddenly appeared on the faces of those people.The round-faced girl was still a little unwilling: "We can pay for the gas."

"It's not that problem." Du Leding smiled, "We are going to investigate here, and we don't plan to leave for the time being."

The round-faced girl's smile gradually faded, and she frowned and said: "I advise you not to stay here too long. We left the last town and set off with a caravan. We parted ways when we were one kilometer away from the warning area. It always felt like something weird was following us after that."

What strange things will there be in the great desert?Along the way, Duledin and the others didn't see anything worth noting except for the green sand.

When Charlie asked curiously, the forgotten computer was left alone on the co-pilot, and the screen was still moving forward without any ups and downs like the last second and the last second.Suddenly, there was a change in the same shot, and at the end of the mechanical spider's green line of sight, a huge black shadow flashed across.
