3628 The Cave of Books and Scriptures is unveiled
Nowadays, where there are basically Chinese businessmen, there will be Chinese intelligence networks. Those merchants and guys who are developing the market with the head of state, two-thirds of them are closely related to the CIA.
Wherever the Chinese business tentacles were expanded, Xiao Letian's eyeliner would also cover it. Fan Jin brought the Western Regions Development Bank's plan, and hundreds of millions of funds were invested in, so how could it be impossible to establish a spy network without supporting it?
Currently, Gansu, especially Guazhou area, there are hundreds of Chinese business companies and companies that come up with the supply team. It is hard to find a house in Guazhou City. Countless businesses rent private houses and signs to do business with the troops.
In just one short winter, they even restored the remote Mingshui Ancient Road in the Han Dynasty, a smuggling golden passage. It doesn’t matter when fighting in Xingxing Gorge. The brave caravans can smuggle goods from Mingshui Ancient Road, a dangerous place where the large corps cannot pass.
The tea, salt and daily necessities in the Central Plains were smuggled in batches, but the ones that were replaced were hoarded for several years and had no sales.
The more prosperous the economy, the greater the Chinese people's power, the more spies they have with dual identities, and the more they are in the water, the more they are in the left.
Especially when the left received the telegram from the rear, he immediately turned his head and went to find King Shangtai. He handed the telegram to King Shangtai and said, "Look, my prince... see what the head of state said!"
King Shangtai looked down and couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning, "So cruel!"
Click the newspaper and said a line of words: "Samuel is extremely dangerous. As long as it can create unexpected results and not cause diplomatic conflicts... then do it!"
Xiao Letian's attitude was the same as on the left, which made King Shangtai very puzzled, "How could this happen? Causing an accidental assassination? Why did the master become so cruel?"
"My prince, don't be kind to women. Since the head of state said that, it must make sense... hurry up and call the people from behind, let's think about it..."
That night, the left was paced back and forth on the sand, thinking about how to kill Samuel, but as he thought about his mind scattered again and the cowhide notebook, he still wanted to know how many secrets were recorded in it.
Although he hated Samuel during this period, he had to say that this British man was indeed an excellent explorer and archaeologist. He could see many cultural relics from the Middle East and Central Asia clearly at a glance.
Even some parts and lines on the Mogao Grottoes murals can be seen that this is influenced by European painting styles, and some are even in Central Asian and Indian styles.
Such capable people must have treasures that are very valuable. Maybe they record a mysterious ancient city or treasure.
Must be stolen and have a look!
On the left, they made up their minds to get closer to the camp where they lived in Britain. Samuel and the other sixteen set up five tents in total, and the camp was close to the river, so it was convenient to get water.
I looked at the pocket watch on the left. It was already 10:30 in the evening. There should be no one in the tent that loaded the goods, right?
But I never expected that as soon as I approached the camp, I met a familiar face of a British soldier. "Hi... Mr. Zuo hasn't slept yet?"
"Smoke one..." The British sentry on duty actually handed a cigarette to the left.
The left smiled embarrassedly and said, "I can't sleep, see if Mr. Samuel is still awake, and talk to him..."
"Oh, you came by unfortunately. Mr. Samuel just finished the medicine and was resting..."
"Okay, I'll come back tomorrow..." He turned his head and left with a cigarette in his mouth. He made up his mind halfway through the way!
"I can't bear to leave my children but can't trap the wolf, and I can't bear to leave my wife but can't catch the hooligan... I'll do it like that!"
After a night of nothing, the left began to plan secretly with his subordinates. As a result, when it was dawn at 6 o'clock in the morning, Samuel was awakened by the hoarse roar outside.
Dozens of Chinese civilians shouted something excitedly outside, but he couldn't understand these northwestern dialects, so he quickly put on his clothes and went out to ask.
The morning assistant ran towards him. He fell four or five times on the sand in just thirty meters away, and finally climbed in front of Samuel.
"Oh God! Oh God! Mr. Samuel, go and have a look... The Chinese have made great discoveries!"
"The Sutra Cave... They discovered a Sutra Cave... Inside are countless Buddhist scriptures, books, paintings... like mountains..."
Samuel felt like his heart was pinched by something. When his legs were weak, he sat on the sand. "What? The sutra cave... Could it be a library sealed in ancient times?"
"Yes, sir, there are too many like Xiaoshan. I have seen Chinese, Tubo, and ancient Western languages... My God, many of them are lost niche characters. Isn't this a dictionary?"
"With these words comparing each other, we can thoroughly explore the history of the entire Western Regions... Don't we fully understand what happened to those small countries..."
"Take me there...take me there..."
The history of this parallel world has completely changed Xiao Letian. Stein did not obtain any volume of Dunhuang Sutra, and the first person to see the Sutra Cave was Samuel, the discoverer of the source of the Nile River.
The discovery of the Sutra Cave attracted everyone. Almost everyone in the entire Mogao Grottoes area put down their work and ran to the Sutra Cave marked Cave 17 in the future.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the cave, I found that a small hole was exposed on the pile of sand that had just been cleared and a civilian was talking.
"I came here to clean the sand in the morning... The master said that if you pay for pieces, you will get ten cents of extra wages for a truck of sand..."
"Don't I think my son should get married? I'll work more night shifts... When the sky was just bright, I was tired and sweaty, and I was thinking of smoking a cigarette to relieve my fatigue..."
"I finished smoking the pipe pot and thought about shaking the wall, clear ashes... guess what? It's empty, this wall is empty..."
"I quickly called the masters to take a look... and ended up digging out such a hidden cave... My mother! It's full of books, many of which are made of bamboo pieces..."
"Let me see... Let me see..." Samuel made a desperate voice and crawled in like a sandy lizard.
Samuel, who rushed into the cave, gently spread a roll of silk like holding his own eyes, and what caught his eye was the paintings of the 100,000 Buddha Kingdoms!
The vast green waves of the seven treasure pond are decorated with carved railings and various lotus flowers bloom. The Buddha and Bodhisattva sit on the lotus with kind faces; the boys in the pond play. At the top of the treasure pond, the blue sky is clear, colorful clouds linger, the Buddha soars into the sky, dancing in the sky, and the sky falls. Below the treasure pond, the musicians play various instruments, the monks play treasure crowns and skirts, and the Hu dance in the Western Regions...
