From the look on Chen Ze's face, he seemed to have discovered something.
"There were so many people just now that I didn't dare to take it out. Look, sir!" As he said that, he took out a cowhide book from his arms.
Grandpa looked at the people in the distance and took it. Mr. Li also changed his posture and used his body to block Chu Yuxuan who was looking this way.
"Notebook? Where did it come from?"
"I took it from a German soldier. When I dug him up, this book was in his hand."
Mr. Li took a look at the notebook. The outer cover of the notebook was dark red, with several loops of cowhide rope wrapped around it, and a metal tag hung at the end of the rope.
"This is..." Looking at the two lightning bolts on the tag, Mr. Li almost exclaimed. "Hitler's SS?"
The strap was untied, and there was a carved ship's rudder printed on the front of the notebook.
The three of them took a look around, and after confirming that no one was paying attention, Grandpa opened his notebook, frowned, and then looked at Mr. Li.
"It's in German." Mr. Li took the notebook, flipped through a few pages, and shook his head helplessly. "I don't understand this thing, but..."
He pointed to a string of letters on the front page.
"This should be the name of the owner of the notebook."
Mr. Li turned back a few more pages, and there were many maps drawn on them.
"This map looks familiar." Chen Ze whispered.
Grandpa took the notebook and read it carefully for a while, "This thing is unusual. Judging from these maps, the routes of this group of people are very similar to ours. "
Grandpa glanced around and said, "Huo Yuanshan is lying. The map in his hand is definitely not what he said."
"It's a pity that I can't understand the German alphabet, otherwise..."
At that time, Mr. Li and his grandfather did not know the contents of the notebook. It was not until his grandfather returned to the ancient city and found someone to translate it that they discovered that the notebook actually contained a shocking secret of Nazi Germany.
"By the way, there's this!" Chen Ze said, taking out two small metal round tubes from his pocket.
After unscrewing it, the three of them were a little surprised.
"Film?" Grandpa and Mr. Li looked at each other. "There must be something recorded here, but it's a pity that we can't see it now!"
"What are you doing?" At this moment, Chu Yuxuan came over.
Grandpa asked Mr. Li to put away his notebook and film, and looked at Chu Yuxuan calmly, "What are you doing here?"
"Thank you for saving me." Chu Yuxuan said, "I don't like to owe others. If you save my life, I will pay you back in the future."
"Hypocritically." Chen Ze muttered to the side, but his grandfather glared back.
"It's nothing." Grandpa glanced at Chu Yuxuan, stood up and walked to the entrance of the cave.
"Alliance Leader Chen is young and promising, which is a blessing for the Spirit Alliance." Chu Yuxuan smiled in an unpredictable way.
Grandpa didn't answer, he just walked away into the distance.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
"Jinjue! Telescope!"
Grandpa looked nervous and took the telescope handed to him by Mr. Li.
"There's something!"
Hearing this, Mr. Li also raised the telescope, and his expression suddenly changed.
I saw a few dim stars twinkling in the darkness in the cold wind.
Mr. Li knew that it was not a star.
"Someone! Has already walked in front of us!" Chu Yuxuan also saw those lights.
Everyone was startled, and their first reaction was to look at Huo Yuanshan standing aside.
"Impossible, how could there be someone else?"
There was a rare trace of surprise on Huo Yuanshan's face. He snatched the telescope from his hand and glanced into the distance. "The storm affected the vision and the true face of the group of people could not be seen clearly."
"Then what should we do? Are we just going to watch those people get ahead of us?" Hong Laojiu asked.
Huo Yuanshan looked gloomy, and finally waved his hand: "No, follow us, we can't let those people get there first!"
At this time, the storm was still continuing, and everyone had no choice but to pack up their equipment in a hurry and set off again against the cold wind.
Fortunately, the wind force had decreased a lot at this time. Everyone had just had a good meal and had enough energy. Even if the snow stubble hurt their faces, no one fell behind.
Soon, everyone was chasing behind those people, and they could even identify the figures in the darkness with their naked eyes.
The wind and snow were raging, and when I looked over from a distance, I suddenly discovered that there was a long queue in front of me.
At this time, behind the small group of German troops, everyone could only see them advancing in the cold wind against the blizzard. The bright light came from the old-fashioned flashlights in their hands.
Looking from a distance, it looks like a dim lantern dragon swaying in the wind and snow.
There were about a dozen people in the team, and they were a little scattered, but everyone was wearing military uniforms, and the eye-catching Nazi symbols on them left no one suspicious.
"A German?"
"How is this possible? It has been more than ten years since the Nazis surrendered. How come there are still troops here? Is it possible that they haven't given up yet?"
Everyone was stunned.
At that time, World War II had just ended a few years ago, so it was not impossible to say that there were indeed Nazi party activities.
"No, that's not right." Grandpa put down the telescope, with an uneasy look on his face, "Take a closer look at those people!"
The team was right in front, and with the dim nightlight and flashlight light reflected from the snow, everyone's attention was focused on the dozen Nazi soldiers.
In the telescope, Mr. Li's eyes swept across the face of one of them, and then he looked at Grandpa with a look of astonishment.
"That man, he...he is!"
Although the man's limbs were intact, Mr. Li still recognized him. It was the guy who was missing an arm and was holding a cross in his hand before he died.
The others were still watching, and gradually their expressions changed.
What started as caution and nervousness turned into horror and fear.
Those people not far away turned out to be the dozen Nazi Germans who died in the crack!
In the blizzard, those pale and familiar faces cast a layer of frost on the hearts of everyone present.
"What a fucking ghost!" Hong Laojiu's words were a little awkward.
"Infinite Heavenly Lord, if this is that group of people, what's going on with the corpse in the crack?" Peng Jinsheng took a gulp of water.
Mr. Li looked at the figures shaking in the darkness and began to wonder if it was his imagination. He touched his chest with his hand and couldn't help but tremble.
The notebook was in his arms, and they had indeed seen the bodies of the group of people in the crack just now.
But now, those people who should have died are right in front of him!
Thinking of the delicious meal not long ago, the warm feeling of fullness now made him feel nauseous.
As his mind kept thinking about the strange corpses, Mr. Li couldn't accept this fact for a while. He raised the telescope again to confirm whether he was dazzled, but the result made him doubt himself again.
The German devils who were originally in the snow have disappeared!
Surrounded by endless ice and snow, under everyone's eyes, those people disappeared one by one out of thin air!
"Gone! Where did they go?"
"Ghosts, they must be ghosts! We dug up their bodies and took their things. We must be the ghosts of these German devils following us!"
"I heard people say that when a person dies on a snowy mountain and no one collects the body, the soul cannot be reincarnated and will be trapped here forever and become a lonely ghost. As long as someone passes by, they will drag that person to stay and bury him with him."
There was some restlessness in the team.
Huo Yuanshan led people and rushed over, wanting to see what happened to those people just now, but when they arrived at the place where they disappeared, there was nothing.
Not even a single footprint was left in the wind and snow.
"Really disappeared?" Mr. Li was a little unbelievable, but the fact was right in front of him.
"The terrain here is open, and there is no place to hide. How could a dozen people just disappear?"
No one can explain what happened.
"That...that! Look at that!"
Just when everyone was confused, one of his subordinates stuttered and pointed in one direction.
Everyone looked around and their expressions changed drastically again.
I don’t know when a group of figures appeared again in the place where everyone had been hiding.
Looking at the dim lights and the dense crowd of figures, everyone froze for a moment.
"Is there anyone else?"
"They are coming, take cover first!"
Huo Yuanshan called on everyone to hurriedly escape. A group of people backed up behind a boulder slope and watched the group of people getting closer and closer.
"Damn it, it doesn't matter if you are a human or a ghost, I will destroy you, you stupid son of a bitch!"
Hong Laojiu cursed and raised his gun to shoot, but was held down by Chu Yuxuan.
"You can't shoot. Do you want to be buried in the snow again?"
The group of people was getting closer and closer, and this time, everyone could completely see their faces.
In the darkness, the dozen or so German soldiers seemed not to notice Mr. Li and the others, and walked towards the crowd step by step.
The snowy ground reflected the pale, devoid of any warmth in the faces, without any expression, and their expressions were dull, like walking corpses, without any trace of life.
"I'm afraid this trip is really full of ghosts!"
"Something is wrong." Mr. Li glanced around, "When we came here just now, there was no slope like this here."
"There is indeed something wrong. I remember just now, there was a hilltop there." Chu Yuxuan said.
"Could it be..."
At this time, everyone was shocked. They didn't know when their surroundings had changed. Everything around them was no longer what it was at the beginning.
"How is this possible? No matter how big the storm is, it can't blow away a mountain out of thin air!"
The storm was still going on. Huo Yuanshan asked his men to block the wind, took out the map from his arms and compared it for a long time, and then looked shocked.
"How could this happen? We are back again."
"What's the meaning?"
"We have been to this place before!" Huo Yuanshan looked around with some confusion.
After some identification, everyone was surprised to find that the location they were at was actually the same snow slope they had walked on before daytime.
"That's really it. Why are we back again?"
Everything in front of them was simply unbelievable. After everyone recognized it again unwillingly, they were already shocked and speechless.
Sure enough!
They had been walking all day and were already thousands of meters away from here, but why did they suddenly appear here?
"How the hell did you lead the way with the surname Huo?" Hong Laojiu scolded.
"There can't be a mistake in the route. There must be something wrong somewhere." Huo Yuanshan calmed down.
"Shopkeeper Huo, according to the map, where should we go next?" Mr. Li asked.
Huo Yuanshan looked at the map with a heavy look on his face.
"If the route is correct, a little further ahead is the crack where the body was found!"
