Chapter 339: Ancient City Ruins
Ghost Blowing Lantern World, Taklama Desert.
Because of the guidance of the white camel, Lin Chen and the others successfully found a place to hide from the black sandstorm.
No sooner had they entered the house than the Black Sandstorm struck.
If it weren't for the speed, it was likely to be buried directly by the black sandstorm.
The rumors of the black sandstorm are true, it is really dark, and the black sandstorm blows at noon, and the whole desert is pitch black, like a dark night.
There are some dead branches and wood in the house, which must have been made by pedestrians who had come here to take refuge in the past.
The corner of the wall was also covered with sand wormwood, which was a kind of hay, Lin Chen leaned out and plucked some casually, took out solid fuel, and lit a small fire to keep everyone warm.
The dark ancient house was illuminated by the firelight, Ye Yixin suddenly jumped up, hit the beam of the house with his head, and was almost knocked unconscious, countless fine sand fell on the beam, and the people below were not wearing goggles, so they were inevitably blinded.
It's not a joke that the fine sand falls into the eyes, and the fine sand in it is not one or two, but little by little.
Everyone was about to say something, when they heard Ye Yixin's trembling voice shouting, "There is a dead body lying in the corner of the wall on the right!" ”
"Dead bodies?" Hao Aiguo rubbed his eyes and asked, "You Xiaoye, what are you doing in a daze?" Are we archaeologists still afraid of dead bodies? ”
Ye Yixin's eyes also entered the sand, and he covered the top of his head that hit the roof beam and apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Hao, I'm ...... I just didn't expect there to be dead people in this house, and my mind was not fully prepared...... I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”
Lin Chen smiled, "It's okay, the first time you encounter this situation, you will always be a little emotional."
What made Lin Chen want to laugh was that Hu Bayi didn't know what to think, and actually spat on Shirley Yang's head.
However, Shirley Yang's eyes were also fascinated by the sand, so she didn't feel Hu Bayi's spit.
Lin Chen quietly walked behind Hu Bayi, and then said, "Ahem, old Hu, what are you doing?" How can you be like this, I didn't expect you to be such a person. ”
Lin Chen's sudden appearance and ridicule frightened Hu Bayi and hurriedly whispered: "Lao Lin, don't say that, she is our big financier, if you offend her, this trip will be in vain." “
"Hehe, Lao Hu, in fact, you call it fate, you see, you close your eyes, no one's head vomits, you just vomit on her head, this is simply fate."
Lin Chen felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said, it was not fate why he didn't spit on other people's heads, but on Shirley Yang's body.
And Shirley Yang's curse seems to have been unraveled when she went with Hu Bayi.
After teasing Hu Bayi or two, Lin Chen walked to the wall with a flashlight.
Sure enough, there were human bones. The climate in the desert is dry and abnormal, I can't tell how long I've been dead, only a pair of white bones remains, half of which is buried in the yellow sand, and most of them are still exposed.
Because he didn't have to worry about the problem of water, Lin Chen asked Hu Bayi to take out the kettle to wash everyone's eyes, anyway, there was no shortage of water.
With the washing of water, everyone was much more relaxed, and in a short time everyone opened their eyes.
Lin Chen said disapprerovingly: "Don't worry, it's just a human bone, I don't know how many years I've been dead, wait for us to eat something, rest for a while, dig a pit and bury him." ”
Captain Touching Gold still has a lot of respect for the bones of the deceased, and Lin Chen can't corrupt this rule, after all, he is now a member of Captain Touching Jin.
The members of the archaeological team, except for the old man An Liman, often deal with ancient corpses, and no one is afraid, but they are a little puzzled that this human bone died here. The dead in the desert rarely decayed, and most of them were dried into mummies by natural air, but this white bone had no skin and flesh on it, and it may have been eaten by the sand wolf.
But Lin Chen knew why, this place had been occupied by the legendary desert marching ants, and most of these pedestrians were eaten at night.
These were all small episodes, and after a day of hiding from the black sandstorm, although most of the time it was on the camels, everyone still felt very tired.
So after dealing with the fine sand in his eyes, Lin Chen climbed out of the broken house with Hu Bayi and the fat man.
After all, Lin Chen knew that this wind and sand had stopped for a while, and he would have to wait for a long time, so he couldn't let everyone sleep on the sand again.
As soon as he climbed out of the house, Lin Chen took out three gas masks from the storage ring that had been picked up in the Kwantung Army fortress and gave one to the fat man and Hu Bayi.
The black sand storm was raging, and the sky was full of wind and sand, even if you put on goggles and a scarf, you still have a lot of problems breathing.
After all, the wind and sand can be said to be pervasive, although the scarf can resist most of the wind and sand, but there is still a small part of the wind and sand will enter the human body's respiratory tract.
So wearing a gas mask is the best choice, anyway, it's a big deal to treat this gas mask as a disposable.
Lin Chen's gas mask last time was not lacking in these three.
The power of the black sandstorm, Lin Chen can be considered to have experienced it, now they are in the black sandstorm, because there is a broken wall to block it, so the power of the black sandstorm has decreased a lot, even so, if the weight is a little lighter, it will still be blown away.
Lin Chen didn't call Hu Bayi and the fat man out to get the sleeping bag in the past, it was enough to take the sleeping bag by himself, and he didn't need Hu Bayi and them at all.
He asked Hu Bayi and them to come to discuss something.
Putting on a gas mask, Lin Chen looked at Hu Bayi: "Old Hu, I think we already know about the matter of Captain Jin, after all, we are not archaeologists, and we know so much about the tomb, it is still very easy to guess our identity if you think about it carefully." ”
Captain Touching Jin is also a tomb robber no matter how he says it, and the people of the people, who are not archaeologists, still know so much about tombs, no matter how they think about it, they will think about tomb robbers.
Hu Bayi nodded, and then said: "I also think, after all, even if the Tianxing Feng Shui Technique is passed down by my ancestors, if I don't look at it, how can I know so much." ”
"So what should we do?"
The fat man was a little confused, and the words had come to this point, if it was because they were the captain of the gold school, it would be difficult to say that Shirley Yang would turn his face.
After all, archaeological teams generally hate tomb robbers the most.
Hu Bayi didn't know what to say, Lin Chen thought for a while and said: "It's okay, don't worry, I know a secret of Shirley Yang, so she will definitely not drive us away, because she needs us, without us, they can't move an inch in the desert, and they can't find a place at all." “
The three of them discussed waiting for Shirley Yang to ask them where they came from, and no matter how much he doubted it, he would just beat them to death and not admit it.
After the discussion, the three of them slowly touched the side of the camel, Lin Chen and they didn't know who belonged to the sleeping bag, anyway, they would take it back after a while and divide it.
Hu Bayi directly helped, took down all the things that should be taken on the camel, and handed them to Lin Chen.
After Lin Chen took it, he directly put all the sleeping bags, food, and fuel into his storage ring.
In this situation, walking in the desert with a bulky, lightweight object is not a wise choice.
Because the contact surface between a large object and the wind is large, but it is light, it is easy to be carried away by the wind.
If you hold it, there's a good chance that it will be blown away by the wind.
Back outside the hole in the broken house, Lin Chen took out the things and handed them to the fat man and Hu Bayi.
After taking the things into the broken house, the people claimed the sleeping bags one by one.
Then, except for Anliman, everyone sat around the fire and began to rest.
As for An Liman's words, Lin Chen didn't want to say it, you ran around all day, and now it's time to rest, you actually took out your blanket again and started praying.
You don't need to be a faithful disciple of God.
