A book that should never have been written
"Some graves are not meant to be dug."
"Some doors, once you hear their sound, you can never escape."
Thirty years ago, an archaeological team code-named "K-7" disappeared in a snowstorm in Kunlun, and no one survived.
The only clue left was a piece of broken jade and a crazy sentence sent by team leader Shen Nanshan to his unborn son:
"Don't let Xinghe come to me."
Thirty years later, his son Shen Xinghe discovered a body beside a glacier crevice in the uninhabited land of Hoh Xil——
Kneeling, clawing away the frozen soil with his hands, he carried a rusty bronze bell on his back.
The pattern on the bell was exactly the same as the hand-drawn drawing in his father's notes.
What's even more weird is that this corpse was wearing a geological team uniform from 1987, and the temperature measurement showed that the time of death was only three days...
But that piece of clothing had been sealed in ice for at least thirty years.
As half of the jade was sent to the laboratory, the instruments collectively failed, and a line of words appeared under the microscope——
That is Shen Xinghe's own handwriting, written in the future:
"Don't fight it all."
Only then did he realize:
My father did not die in an avalanche.
That scientific expedition team never really left.
And "Kunlun Ruins" is not an ancient tomb at all——
It is the lungs of the earth, the folds of time, a door that has been suppressed for thousands of years by Jiuding.
And that copper bell never rings on its own initiative...
Unless, someone has become a "bell listener".
When the Big Dipper lamp is lit, the upside-down city emerges under the ice abyss.
Shen Xinghe finally understood:
They thought they were looking for the truth,
Actually——
The truth has been waiting for their return.
