Chapter 341: The Ancient City of the Western Night

Ghost Blowing Lantern World, Taklama Desert.

Everyone also accepted Lin Chen's statement, and sighed at Lin Chen's carefulness, after all, if it weren't for the careful people, where would they see the desert marching ants in the corner.

If you weren't careful, you'd think of that bare skeleton.

After driving for half a day, the scenery in the desert is still the most beautiful during the day, and there is a piece of gold everywhere, which is much more interesting than at night.

It didn't take long for the sand dunes beneath everyone's feet to rise and fall like never before.

And the density was something they hadn't encountered before, even the ruins of the ancient city where they had avoided the black sandstorm didn't have so much undulating density.

Just when everyone was amazed, An Liman said: "These are ancient cities that have been swallowed by wind and sand." ”

He shouted at his camel to the top of the largest hill, then pointed to the south and said, "That is our transit station this time--- the ancient city of the West Night." “

If you look at it with the naked eye, you can only see a small black dot in the south, but if you look through the binoculars, you will see that it is actually an oasis.

The ruins of the West Night City are quite well preserved, and the age of this city is relatively late, until the end of the Tang Dynasty, when it was destroyed in the war and abandoned to this day. At the beginning of the 19th century, German explorers discovered the site and looted most of the artefacts such as frescoes and statues.

Only this empty city is left in the desert, the oldest ancient channel of the Peacock River, and it ends here. Since the city has been passed through underground water veins throughout the year from ancient times to the present, it has become an important supply point for travelers in the desert.

After deciding on the place, An Liman shouted his camel down the Dasha Mountain, and then slowly set off towards the oasis.

When the archaeological team came to the most precious place in the desert--- the oasis. That is, when the ruins of the ancient city of the West Night were already a few hours later.

The walls of the ancient city of Xiye are made of black stones, and some places have collapsed and weathered, and the damage is very serious, only the main city is quite strong, and the glorious atmosphere of the year can still be seen. Some oil well workers, expedition teams, and geological exploration teams pass by here, and they all stay in the main city, blocking the door with stones, so they don't have to worry about the attack of wolves.

After unloading the heavy baggage of the camel, Anliman took out salt and bean cake and fed it to the big camel.

After carefully inspecting the many camels, An Liman found Lin Chen and Hu Bayi and said: "The ancient city of the West Night is a transit station, and it will be difficult to turn back if you go in again." And my camels were frightened, and they were carrying a lot of supplies, and they had to get their feet strong before they could set off, so you see if we should rest here for a few more days. “

Hu Bayi agreed with An Liman's statement, but Lin Chen didn't agree with it, it was too uncomfortable to feel like life and death without the strength of being controlled by the desert, so it was better to set off towards the Exquisite Ancient City after resting.

But Lin Chen didn't force a refusal, after all, there was still a place of sacrifice in this Western Night Ancient City, and it would be difficult to say if the Godhead fragment was in it at that time.

At this time, it is the wind season, so there are few other people in the desert, after all, the only guide who dares to enter the desert in the wind season seems to be An Liman.

They found a spacious room in the middle of the city, and they set up tents in it, after all, they had to rest here for a few days.

If you don't set up a tent, the wind will still be very cold at night, after all, the night in the desert is not clear, sometimes the temperature is suitable, sometimes it is colder than the winter in many places.

The matter of setting up the tent was left to the fat man and Hu Bayi.

Lin Chen and An Liman found the ancient well in the city, it is said that for thousands of years, this well has not dried up, An Liman said that this is a miracle of Hu Da, Lin Chen is noncommittal about it. A bucket of well water was hit with a leather bucket, the well was very deep, and it took dozens of meters of long rope to hear the sound of falling water, and after taking it out, Lin Chen took a sip first, it was cold and cold, and it was heartwarming, and it could be said that it was more than the frozen watermelon I ate before.

After drinking the water, Lin Chen looked down, and it was pitch black at the bottom, and he couldn't see the bottom of the well at all.

I don't know if there will be anything the system wants down there.

Carrying water back to the camp, everyone sat around the campfire to rest.

Although I had a good night's sleep last night, it was still very exciting to encounter the rapid march of desert marching ants today.

A large pot of water was boiled, and the people took out their basins.

After driving in the desert for such a long time, Lin Chen didn't feel anything.

But these pampered old men and young people of the archaeological team are different.

What about the old man? Physical resistance is not good, what about young people? I can't endure hardship, and I'm used to being pampered.

Hu Bayi forced everyone to burn their feet, and then took out needles and asked them to pick out all the blisters on their feet.

Considering the situation in the desert, Lin Chen and the others prepared a large amount of Yunnan Baiyao when they set off.

After the blisters on the feet are picked up and cleaned, sprinkle a little Yunnan Baiyao, and it will be fine in a day or two.

Because of last night's rest, everyone is not very tired.

I couldn't find anything to do, so I chatted around the campfire.

What about the fat man, he has been boasting about the abundance of materials in the Northeast, or something.

The time for small talk always passes quickly, and before you know it, the time has come to night.

Because the fat man bragged too much, Shirley Yang couldn't listen to it and objected.

As soon as Hu Ba saw that the situation was wrong, he pulled the fat man and Lin Chen and ran outside to smoke.

The bright moon in the sky is picturesque, the stars are like brocade, and the earth is illuminated with silver light, Hu Bayi lit a cigarette for the fat man and persuaded him to let Shirley Yang a little more.

The fat man pretended to say that of course he couldn't see her in general, they Americans were not sensible, but Chinese could not be ignorant, not to mention that Shirley Yang was still a woman, let alone could not do anything with her.

Lin Chen smiled, didn't speak, didn't take Hu Bayi's cigarette, just quietly lay on the fine sand and looked at the sky.

At this time, Hu Bayi: "Lin Chen, what kind of dragon hunting trick of yours, I've heard of it, you try it now and see if you can find the tomb." ”

Lin Chen shook his head and said: "Let's not talk about the fact that there is no mountain water method in this desert, let's just say this dragon search formula, I only know the formula, the first time I said it to fool Shirley Yang, the ancestors were lost, and the dragon search recipe has long been lost." “

(Hu Bayi will find the dragon trick, but that's later, the exquisite ancient city here will be the Tianxing feng shui technique, so you don't have to care about the dragon trick.) )

"Hahaha, I'll just fucking say, how can you know what kind of dragon hunting trick at such a young age, it turns out to be half a pot of water."

The fat man kept laughing on the side, originally he thought that he wouldn't be able to look at the tomb in the team, but he didn't expect that now Lin Chen's dragon search trick was fooling.

Lin Chen just smiled and didn't care.

Hu Bayi also learned from Lin Chen to lie on the fine sand and spit out smoke rings at the sky.

At this time, Hu Bayi seemed to have discovered something, looked at the sky in a daze, and even forgot to smoke the cigarette in his hand.

As if thinking of something, Hu Bayi hurriedly got up and ran towards the house.

The fat man said with a confused face: "What is crazy about this old Hu?" Why did you run away all of a sudden? ”

Lin Chen shook his head, "Whatever, most of the time he went to bully Shirley Yang." ”

As soon as he heard this, the fat man's interest came.

He turned over and looked at Lin Chen with his chin and said, "Alas, did you say that Lao Hu has taken a fancy to that American girl, and he follows people all day long." “

Lin Chen nodded seriously, and then said: "I think this is probably the case, if you get Shirley Yang in your hands, it won't be a double harvest of people and money at that time." ”

"Alas, it's still an old nonsense, why didn't I think of this stubble, this American girl looks good."

The fat man's face was regretful, as if he would have started if it wasn't for Hu Ba's move.
