This is the first time I've seen this before.

"This must be a tomb chamber..." Zhang guessed.

"It shouldn't be a tomb."

Professor Sun walked half a circle around the edge of the open space.

I stopped directly in front of the old locust tree, looked up at the withered old tree, and

“The tomb chamber will not be made into a standard circle.”

In ancient architecture, the circle has a specific meaning.

Altar, observatory, sealing array.

Considering the situation at the ruins, I think the third possibility is the most likely, although other possibilities cannot be ruled out.

"So what do we do now?" Engineer Zhang asked.

Professor Sun took a notebook out of his briefcase.

I turned to the page with the sketches and wrote a few words on it.

He tore it off and handed it to the woman behind him.

"Sent back to the province, recommending that the emergency plan for major archaeological sites be activated immediately."

The site's classification should be raised to at least level one.

The core area is now under lockdown, with a radius of 500 meters centered on this old locust tree.

"In addition, the environmental monitoring station was notified to monitor the geomagnetic changes and air ionization in this area 24 hours a day, starting tonight."

No one may dig into it before figuring out exactly what it is synchronizing.

……

Bai Sheng was on his own sofa.

My mind raced, trying to figure out what to do next.

Following the process Professor Sun described,

The provincial government will hold another meeting to discuss the allocation of equipment and the organization of manpower, which will take at least several days.

These next few days are the window of opportunity!

He wanted to get there before the blockade was set up.

Let's get to that underground circular space first and see what's inside!

The question is, how do we get down?

Bai Sheng thought for a moment.

Man-made at a depth of twelve meters underground.

According to Professor Sun,

And that old locust tree was located directly above the center of the circle.

This is no coincidence!

Bai Sheng guessed,

This tree may be part of a seal, or a marker of an entrance.

He decided to first have his clone thoroughly explore the ground around the old locust tree!

He manipulated his clone to slide down the pine tree.

Waiting for Professor Sun's convoy to leave.

Chapter 60 The Death of the Doppelganger

Bai Sheng didn't have to wait long.

The main force withdrew very quickly.

Before leaving, Professor Sun designated two young staff members to stay behind.

One man and one woman

The man was the young man with glasses who had carried the recorder earlier, and the woman was the technician who helped Professor Sun operate the tablet.

The two people were positioned next to the outermost perimeter of the security line.

The clearing away from the old locust tree is separated by an entire grove of trees.

after all,

Professor Sun's original words were, "Monitoring data should not be placed near the core area."

The two were quite obedient.

Two folding chairs were set up by the side of the quarry road.

Connect the monitoring terminal of the ground-penetrating radar.

Staring blankly at the waveform on the screen.

Bai Sheng waited in the pine canopy for almost half an hour.

It was confirmed that Professor Sun's convoy would not turn back.

Let's get started!

Bai Shengrang's clone emerged from the bushes.

They reached a point about fifty paces west of the open space.

He bent down and picked up a piece of gravel about the size of a fist.

Throw it with all your might in a southeast direction.

The pebbles bounced twice among the tree canopy before landing in a patch of bushes some distance away.

It made a loud, rattling sound.

It stood out conspicuously in the quiet woods.

The young man with glasses immediately stood up.

I looked in the direction from which the sound came.

What was that sound?

"I don't know, it might be a wild boar! There are quite a few wild boars in these mountains."

The woman also got up and took two steps in that direction.

Bai Sheng then had his clone throw out a second piece of gravel, this time farther away, making the sound even louder.

"Something's not right, I'll go check it out." The young man picked up a flashlight from beside the folding chair, and also took the handheld terminal of the ground-penetrating radar.

"You stay here and keep watch, I'll be right back after I make a round."

He walked along the quarry road in the direction of the sound of breaking stones.

The beam of the flashlight swayed back and forth among the trees.

They quickly disappeared into the depths of the forest.

The woman was left alone in the same spot.

He crossed his legs, seemingly not very nervous.

Bai Sheng thought for a moment.

The decision was not to harm her.

There's no need for that; one person can't cause any trouble.

He had his clone go around her.

We crept in from the east side of the open space and returned to the old locust tree.

The withered old locust tree remained bare.

Bai Shengrang's clone stepped back a few paces and re-examined the old locust tree.

After studying it for a long time,

Ok…

It's really baffling!

To be honest, I spent a lot of time watching it, but it was all for nothing.

Professor Sun and the others haven't figured out anything, so how could he possibly do it?

Bai Sheng rubbed his temples.

……wrong!

There must be something I've missed.
