The monk persevered for half a year, and seeing that he could no longer hold on, he struggled to crawl to the tomb, not wanting his rotten body to defile the blessed land of his master.
He Hongchi sighed softly, "All this is the evil done by the Japanese pirates."
Wenwen and Yuxunting felt very heavy-hearted, as this period of history is the pain of the Chinese people.
The mechanism of our ancestors can intercept ordinary tomb robbers, but it cannot stop the bombs of Japanese pirates.
"The entrance to the tomb is where we came in. Cancan's master discovered it a long time ago. The venomous snake was a trap he added later. The venomous snake is called a (cockscomb snake). When it attacks, there is a small crown on its head, and it makes a (clucking) sound before it attacks."
Wenwen suddenly realized, "No wonder the venomous snake is afraid of Cancan."
She stroked the scorched hair on the monkey's head sadly. "From a three-meter-tall ape to the miniature monkey it is now, what kind of pain must Cancan have endured?"
He Hongchi put the notebook in his arms and said, "The hallucinogen in the cave was prepared by the monks using the powder left by the Japanese invaders. As for why Cancan can detoxify the hallucinogen, it is not written here."
Wenwen was worried, "Master, if the higher-ups knew everything about Cancan, would they investigate her?"
"We just treat Cancan as an ordinary little monkey. We can't let anyone know about this." He Hongchi told them.
Wenwen wished that, she didn't want Cancan to be studied as a monster.
He Hongchi continued, "The words carved on the walls of the secret room were carved by the monk using symbols that only Taoists can understand. He held on to the hope that his fellow disciples could find the secret room."
Yu Xunting looked at the two of them and said, "Now that the truth is out, should we go out now or wait until daybreak?"
Wenwen raised her wrist to check the time, but the watch glass and the minute and second hands were all gone. "Well, now I'm blind. My watch is burnt out."
He Hongchi pondered for a moment and said, "Let's leave here first. It should be almost dawn when we get back to the valley."
So a few of them slowly groped their way out, and when they came out of the cave, they were almost blinded by the bright sun.
Wenwen took a deep breath and said, "I finally see the light of day again. It feels so good to be alive. Last night was so exciting that I almost thought I was going to die."
He Hongchi quipped, "If we're buried down there, we're lucky. They've built such a big tomb for us."
Wenwen saw Yuxunting put a wooden stick under the big rock, trying to move the rock back to its original position to cover the cave entrance.
"You guys keep busy here, I'll go to the hot spring to wash first." After saying that, she ran away.
Yu Xunting was busy with his work and asked, "Doctor He, will you report what happened here when you get back?"
"Report it. We can't hide the matter involving the Japanese pirates. It's a pity to ruin the beautiful scenery of this valley." He looked around and was afraid that he would never see such a beautiful scenery again.
"There are poisonous snakes entering from here. I think it would be more convenient to reopen the place that was blown open by the Japanese pirates." Yu Xunting's eyes flashed slightly.
He Hongchi clapped his hands upon hearing this, "Right! This way the valley won't be exposed."
Yu Xunting shook his head, "You forgot that there is a passage below to climb out. It is impossible not to be exposed. You can report truthfully. There are poisonous snakes here. It is not safe."
He Hongchi thought, "The monk left behind a recipe for the antidote to the venom of the cockscomb snake. Should I hand it in? Or should I wait and see?"
"We'll talk about it later. Try not to let anyone come this way."
Wenwen came over after washing up. "Are you not ready yet? You guys go wash up, I'll cook. Eat well and go home early."
After staying here for a few days, she really missed her bed at home.
Yu Xunting told her about his plan, and Wenwen agreed. "I'll call the secretary-general when I get home and ask him to tell them not to use the passage here. There are too many poisonous snakes."
After filling their stomachs, they rushed home eagerly.
Before entering the house, Wenwen called the secretary general to explain what was happening here.
The secretary general heard the whole story and knew the seriousness of it. "I will report it to the old man immediately. Please don't leave." After that, he hung up the phone.
After a long while, the phone rang and Wenwen picked up. "The higher-ups have decided to have the General Pharmaceutical Institute assist with this matter. Wenwu Jing City will send a vehicle to return it to the Cultural Relics Bureau. As for the medicinal powder, they will send an expert in this field."
"Is the medicinal powder also being shipped back to Beijing? I see there's quite a bit in there." Wenwen asked.
"Nothing left behind by the Japanese invaders is good when it is transported back to Beijing. What the old man meant is that the Pharmaceutical General Hospital is a place where life-saving drugs are developed, and he is afraid that this thing will become a disaster." If you are not careful, it will cause bacterial infection.
Wenwen understood, "I will send someone to help handle this matter and ensure that the venomous snakes don't harm the experts."
In fact, this is the best way. You can participate without having to worry about anything. You just need to transport everything back to Beijing.
A question occurred to her, "Teacher, should we do this in a big way? Or should we hide it from the Japanese spies?"
The Secretary-General pondered for a moment and said, "Do it with great fanfare to divert the spies' attention. Only then will your side be safe."
Wenwen knew what she was doing. "Okay, I know what to do."
After the two of them finalized the plan, the secretary general hung up the phone and left the matter to be arranged.
Wenwen stepped into the house and was kissed by Chen Yuelian for a while. "Mrs. Ding called yesterday and asked you to come back and answer her call."
"Did you say anything?"
Chen Yuelian shook her head. "No, we chatted for quite a while."
"It's getting late today. I'll call her tomorrow."
Wenwen went to discuss things with Yuxunting. She repeated what the secretary general had said, "Cousin, please take someone to arrange this matter. As long as the contents of the tomb are emptied, the valley won't be discovered."
Yu Xunting felt that this was the best solution. "Okay, I'll make the arrangements tomorrow. You still have to pay attention to your safety and don't leave Song Zhiqing's sight."
Although this method can attract the attention of spies, who knows what their purpose is?
Early the next morning!
Several cars stopped in front of the Wen family's house, and many people got out of the cars.
The speed is so fast that it proves how much importance the higher-ups attach to it.
Wenwen looked at the crowd of people in front of her. She didn't recognize any of them, but that didn't stop others from recognizing her.
Several people who looked like old scholars came up to her and said, "Hello, Comrade Xiaowen! Heroes emerge from youth, and the young are truly formidable."
Wenwen said modestly, "No, no, I need to learn more from my predecessors."
The person in charge of this incident said to He Hongchi, "President He, the higher-ups are taking this matter very seriously. We rushed here overnight and will transport the items back to Beijing as quickly as possible."
"Comrade Yu knows the situation in the tomb clearly. He is responsible for this matter and will take you to the tomb." He Hongchi introduced Yu Xunting.
Yu Xunting saluted them and said, "Comrades, I am responsible for the tomb. Should we go into the mountains now or rest for a while?"
"No need to rest, we brought dry food, let's set off immediately."
Yu Xunting nodded, "Okay, let's go now."
"Wait a minute, one of them called out to Yu Xunting."
