"Good guy, it turned out to be phantom poison grass powder..." Chen Tao felt his head grow bigger for a while.

Although this phantom poisonous grass does not hurt people, its hallucinogenic effect is extremely powerful.

Chen Tao swallowed. Fortunately, he was well prepared this time.

The antidote was applied to the respiratory layer of the gas mask, but these poisonous powders had no effect on him.

"The combination of hallucinogens and illusion mechanisms means that if you really get caught, you'll have no choice but to spin in circles."

Thinking of what happened last time, Chen Tao couldn't help but tremble.

He didn't want to do it again.

The stairs are made of old cypress wood and are very strong.

Chen Tao held up a flashlight and climbed up carefully.

Grandpa's house faces north and south. There are ventilation windows on the east and west sides of the attic. It's not large, but it's exceptionally cool.

In the past, when the summer was sweltering, Chen Tao loved sleeping in this attic and listening to his grandfather tell him some bizarre stories.

Today, the old wooden bed is still there, but it is filled with all kinds of debris.

Chen Tao moved around for a while before digging out the old wooden box he remembered.

Xu Shi was big and heavy and was pressed at the bottom.

The box is locked.

Chen Tao took a look and saw that it was a shrimp-tail copper coin combination lock from the mid-Qing Dynasty.

There are seven rings on the lock, and four star charts are engraved on each ring.

Corresponding to the twenty-eight constellations in the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest.

This lock is useless without a key. You have to decipher the star map on it to open it.

Chen Tao tried to turn it, but the lock ring didn't move at all as if it was stuck.

Chen Tao took out the old copper key given to him by his grandfather.

A series of star charts are engraved on it.

"Sure enough, you still need a key..." Chen Tao inserted it tentatively.

Follow the instructions on the key and turn the lock ring.

Click!

When turning to the last lock ring, there was a crisp sound inside the lock.

Chen Tao felt happy and hurriedly turned the key.

There was a muffled sound, and a burst of dust and smoke bounced from the gap in the box in the flashlight light.

Licking his lips excitedly, Chen Tao opened the long-lost wooden box.

Even though he was wearing a gas mask, he could still detect a faint scent of sandalwood, mixed with the unique smell of old objects.

The box is basically filled with books and other items, as well as some gadgets that the young grandpa played with when he was still alive.

Things were packed neatly, but Chen Tao was not sure that the notebook was in it.

After all, so many years have passed, and it’s hard to tell whether the thing is there or not.

After rummaging through the box for a long time, Chen Tao became a little disappointed.

The thing is not here.

"It would be difficult if we weren't here..."

Apart from Grandpa, there are only two people who know this notebook.

Chen Tao had asked before that Mr. Li didn't know where grandpa put his notebook.

As for Chen Ze, he died in an ancient tomb many years ago, and Chen Tao didn't even know what he looked like.

"Is the clue just cut off..." Chen Tao looked at the debris at the bottom of the box in a daze.

When Chen Tao saw that notebook, his grandfather was reading it in the attic.

It's on the desk next to the wooden bed.

He grabbed the notebook and asked his grandfather to tell him a story.

Isn't that notebook here...

"wrong......"

Scanning the bottom of the box, Chen Tao found a clue.

Although the wooden box is bulky, the template board of the box is not very thick. On the contrary, the bottom of the box looks a bit weird no matter how you look at it.

It even makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

The distance between the bottom of the box and the ground is obviously much greater than the thickness of the board.

There is a gap between the two.

Yes, the bottom of this box is a bit thick.

Is it possible...

Chen Tao took out everything from the bottom of the box.

He reached out and knocked, and there was a heavy muffled sound from the bottom of the box.

It's not like it's hollow.

But Chen Tao did not give up.

With Grandpa's personality, even if a secret grid was made, it would be impossible to find out in such a simple way.

There is a way to deal with this dense grid that you may want to try.

Chen Tao walked around and scraped a lot of dust and powder from the surrounding objects.

Then pour all the dust on the bottom of the box, and then start rubbing it on the inner wall and bottom of the wooden box with your hands.

It is difficult to make a wooden box fit perfectly.

The particles of this deposited dust are extremely fine.

This box can be considered to be a decades-old object. No matter how meticulous the carpentry is, it cannot be perfect.

Besides, the attic is cool and dry, and this box has been exposed to the cold and wind for so many years. No matter how good the materials are, there will always be some subtle changes.

Sure enough, as time went by, the two square hidden grids revealed some prototypes.

No wonder tapping didn't work, these two hidden compartments were really cleverly and obscurely designed, and they most likely avoided being easily discovered.

Chen Tao took out a dagger, which he specially used for self-defense.

The tip of the knife inserted into the gap and carefully pried open the cover of the hidden compartment.

"Sure enough!" Chen Tao almost shouted with excitement.

In the dark room, lying quietly was a thing wrapped in fine cloth.

Looking at the size, it is undoubtedly the same as a book.

Chen Tao took out the cloth bag and opened it. There was an old cowhide book inside.

The rudder with carved patterns on the front is exactly the same as what Mr. Li described.

In addition to this, there is another wallet.

Opening his wallet, Chen Tao saw the rusty Hitler SS military badge and a stack of yellowed black-and-white photos.

These photos…

Chen Tao remembered that when Chen Ze found this notebook, there were two bundles of film.

Chen Tao briefly looked through the notebook.

After all these years, the notebook paper feels almost crumbling to the touch.

It was in German, and Chen Tao didn't know a word of it.

but.

Unexpectedly, grandpa had already made annotations on it.

At the same time, he also noticed something.

This notebook has been manipulated.

When he turned to the second half of the notebook, he could clearly see that the paper materials and notes in this part were different from those in the front.

In contrast, this notebook actually contains different notes from four or five people at the same time.

There is a mix of German, English, and even Chinese.

Chen Tao recognized it, it was his grandfather's handwriting.

It was unlikely that it had been touched.

Chen Tao guessed that maybe his grandfather had sorted out the clues and put together all the information he could collect.

This was beyond Chen Tao's expectation.

But this saves a lot of trouble.

Chen Tao looked through it and gradually got some clues in his mind.

The contents of the note made his heart beat faster. If this note were made public, it would definitely cause an uproar.

This incident has great legendary and religious overtones.

No one thought that Nazi Germany at that time would hide such a huge conspiracy.

The owner of the original cowhide book is Hehir Alder, an officer in Hitler's SS.

At the same time, he is also one of the leaders of the Kunlun Mountain Special Operations Team.

It’s a long story.

In Europe, there has long been a legend about Atlantis, also known as Atlantis.

The ancient Greek philosopher Plato mentioned in his "Dialogues" written in 350 BC that 12,000 years ago, there was an amazing continent in the Atlantic Ocean far west of the Mediterranean Sea.

It is decorated with countless gold and silver and produces a gleaming metal - orichalcum.

It has a well-equipped port and ships, as well as objects capable of manned flight.

After a major earthquake, the continent sank to the bottom of the sea. Some Atlanteans fled by boat and finally settled in Tibet, China and India.

Later some of them became the ancestors of Aryans and Indians.

The Germanic people are the descendants of the Aryans.

Some Nazi experts believed that the Aryans had lost their ancestral divine powers only through union with mortals.

With the help of racial purification methods such as selective breeding, Aryan protoss troops with extraordinary abilities and invincibility can be created.

Therefore, they sent people to Tibet to find the remnants of their ancestors.

In 1938, with Hitler's approval, Himmler, a senior Nazi SS official, formed an expedition team to go deep into Tibet to search for evidence of the existence of the Atlanteans, the "ancestors of the German nation".

While conducting ethnographic data surveys on Tibetans, they learned from local people that there was a cave named Shambala.

It is said that there is an "Earth's Axis" hidden there that contains infinite energy. Whoever can find it will be protected by a biological field, become "invulnerable", and be able to control changes in time and events at will.

In August 1939, the expedition team returned to Germany and was warmly welcomed by Himmler. Himmler awarded Seifer the "SS Sword of Honor".

This Tibetan expedition was fully affirmed by the Nazi top brass.

At the end of December 1941, the German army on the Soviet battlefield suffered heavy losses.

In the winter of the same year, millions of German troops were again passive in the Battle of Stalingrad.

Hitler was going crazy.

He was almost crazy. On the one hand, he organized charlatans to find the Allied fleet through the ridiculous method of hanging hammers on the Atlantic map.

On the other hand, he thought of the "Earth's axis" in the far east...
