Chapter 183: Arrival
In fact, the middle-aged man showed everyone the travel plan before, which is still relatively rough. Due to the rush of time, they only planned the whole time, and did not take into account the need for everyone to rest.
After more than 20 hours of travel, the whole journey is endless, and the young people may be able to lean on the bus and take a nap for a while, while the old professors' bodies and bones are shaken and painful.
Moreover, the staff did not fully prepare for problems such as eating and excretion, which also caused every time they went to the service area, there were professors who asked to go down and rest for a while.
The journey of 1,580 kilometers took two days before everyone arrived.
When the group came to the Badain Jaran Desert, it was already seven o'clock in the night. After a night's rest in the place prepared by the staff, the old professors were relieved.
Before entering the desert, all of them underwent a medical examination. There is no way, their target this time is no man's land that has never been involved in human beings, these old professors are all top talents in the industry, and if anyone has a problem, they can't afford it.
When Professor Liu was checked, the staff found that the old professor's blood pressure was a little high, and everyone suggested that the old professor rest in the workstation on the edge of the desert for a few days, and then go there after the situation improved.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm okay." Professor Liu waved his hand again and again and said, "My body is hard and strong, and there are blood pressure medications, it doesn't matter." ”
"This ......" The young doctor in charge of the physical examination looked at his boss next to him, and when the other party saw this, he also stepped forward to persuade him.
It's a pity that the old professor is determined to follow the army, and no matter how much they persuade him, he refuses to agree.
After some communication to no avail, the staff had no choice but to give up.
Professor Liu was diagnosed with hypertension more than ten years ago, and he has always relied on medication to control it, and everyone knows this matter relatively well, so in the process of personnel arrangement, the organizer specially arranged two medical staff to follow the old professor, just in case.
At the end of the physical examination, except for the old professor, there was not much problem with the others, and everyone boarded the off-road vehicle that had been prepared for a long time, and rushed into the vast desert with a roar. Jiang Huo sat in the passenger seat of the first car, his right hand on his cheek, and turned his head to look at the red sun that had just risen in the sky.
The sun rises in the east, the yellow sand is thousands of miles, and the desert is full of unknowns and dangers.
Sometimes, more people doesn't mean more power.
"Xiao Jiang? What's wrong? Isn't it a little uncomfortable? Sitting behind the co-pilot seat was Professor Liu, who had felt that something was wrong with Jiang Huo since he got into the car that day and was on the road, so he was silent and silent.
Jiang Huo heard Professor Liu's inquiry, and she turned her head with a bright smile on her face.
"Nothing, I just think, it's a little weird."
Professor Liu smiled dumbly, he didn't expect that Jiang Huo was still thinking about the issues discussed that night. However, he liked Jiang Huo's attitude, so he waved his hand and didn't disturb Jiang Huo's thoughts.
The car shifted northwest of the main road, following a slightly narrower fork in the road, unabated, constantly bumped by the potholes on the road. Looking out of the car window, the road is lined with low desert shrubs, mostly covered with yellow sand, and the original green of the leaves is barely visible.
Viewed from above, dozens of off-road vehicles are connected in a twisted long line, like earthworms, wriggling non-stop. After about six hours of driving, the drivers in charge of driving finally stopped.
Because there is no road ahead, everyone needs to get out of the car and walk for about two hours to reach the destination of this archaeological excavation.
Tent camps in the middle of the desert.
Jiang Huo jumped out of the car first, opened the rear door, stretched out his arm, and supported Professor Liu. It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and the winter sun was not scorching or dazzling, and it barely felt much on the body.
Looking at the yellow sand in front of her, Jiang Huo's brows frowned, her willow eyebrows furrowed, and she found that the aura here seemed to be much richer than the mass graves she had encountered before.
Following behind the guide, a team of more than 150 people marched towards the target location. If calculated according to the scientific research team, there are indeed not many of these people, but with environmental factors, there are more of these people.
After two hours of walking, a large camp tent suddenly appeared in Jiang Huo's sight, hundreds of tents formed a huge circle, and many men in camouflage uniforms walked around the camp and kept walking around there.
After they saw Jiang Huo's group, the men and horses in charge of patrolling around the camp immediately came out to answer, and after checking their identity information, they waved their hands and everyone helped drag the luggage.
"It's time to go." Professor Liu stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, his chest couldn't stop rising and falling, and the whole person looked very tired.
The same is true for the other professors, the two-hour journey is not a problem for them at all, but in the desert, one foot is deep and the other is shallow, and it is much more laborious than usual to walk.
About a kilometer northwest of the tent, there was an earthy yellow building, about ten meters high, and everyone saw it, and their faces suddenly showed a look of surprise.
The appearance of such a building in the middle of a desert is a very strange thing in itself.
"Is that what we're looking for?"
Professor Liu narrowed his eyes, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were huddled together.
Walking into the camp, the staff here had already allocated tents according to the personnel list, Jiang Huo lived next door to Professor Liu, she first sent the old professor back to the tent to rest, and then carried her luggage and got into the tent next to her. Living with Jiang Huo are Wu Tiantian and Qian Xingxing, two sisters. When Jiang Huo got into the tent, the two of them were tidying up their things.
"Jiang Huo, are you here? We will be roommates for the rest of the day, and if there is any difficulty in the future, we will have to help each other. Wu Tiantian, a short-haired girl, has a relatively straightforward personality, and when she saw Jiang Huo coming in, she took the initiative to say hello.
Qian Xingxing also smiled and greeted Jiang Huo in a friendly manner.
Jiang Huo was surprised for a moment, then a soft smile appeared on his face, and he nodded in response.
Since they got in the car and talked that day, the three of them have not had anything to do with each other, and now that the other party has taken the initiative to show goodwill, Jiang Huo will not look at people through the crack in the door like a fool.
In the process of sorting out the items, Jiang Huo found that the two girls carried a lot of things, in addition to electronic devices such as mobile phones and computers, they also brought a lot of relevant information.
On top of that, both men were carrying a large bag of skincare products. [.]
