Chapter Twenty-Five: The First Meeting

Qiao Benliang carefully looked at the woman opposite, and saw that she was about thirty years old, with a slender figure, a well-proportioned body, a delicate little face, white and red, and a pair of bright eyes, which looked as bright as the autumn moon, as pretty as a peach in three springs, and as pure as a chrysanthemum in nine autumns.

She tied her long hair into a ponytail with a leather band, looking very neat and neat, wearing a beige trench coat on her upper body, a pair of sky blue jeans on her lower body, and a pair of high-top hiking boots on her feet. ”

As soon as the beauty spoke, these rude men immediately stopped making noise, and Qiao Benliang was conquered by her elegant temperament at first sight, and his heart suddenly accelerated and jumped a few times, and an inexplicable excitement emerged.

"We are the staff of the Beijing Institute of Paleontology, and we came to the ancient city of Loulan this time for a field trip, maybe our way of speaking is a little too extreme, I hope you can take care of it more, okay?"

When Qiao Benliang heard this, he really had someone from the background, so he quickly took over the conversation and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's all a small misunderstanding." May I ask this eldest sister, you should be their leader, right? Speaking too well! ”

Luo Fang shook his head, pointed at Yao Chunsheng and said, "I'm not a leader, this is our team leader-Professor Yao!" ”

saw that Yao Chunsheng just rolled his eyelids, his face was still very ugly, and he snorted coldly: "Now you know our true identity, right?" Can you tell me why the four of you are here? ”

As an official, they all like to put on an official stand in front of people and play an official prestige, Qiao Benliang's father is such a person, he has long been accustomed to it, so he still has a smile on his face: "Oh, it turned out to be Professor Yao, I'm really embarrassed, our people spoke out of proportion just now, please forgive me!" A few of us are amateur adventurers who plan to come here for a few days and leave. ”

"Then how can your people think of us as bad people? Could it be that some tomb robbers have come to this place? ”

"No, no! We only came here yesterday, and we didn't see any grave robbers, they were all thereβ€”just speculation. ”

The flying fox walked up to Qiao Benliang and whispered: "Brother, let's hurry back to the camp, let's try not to provoke these masters!" ”

Qiao Benliang nodded, he also understood in his heart that the other party was a person from an organ unit, one was a citizen and the other was an official, and there was no common language at all: "Okay, let's go!" He waved his hand at Lunengda and Chen Jie and motioned for the two of them to go back.

Just as he turned around and was about to leave, he was stopped by Luo Fang: "Excuse me, where are you camping?" ”

Qiao Benliang turned around, smiled at Luo Fang, and replied, "We are in the depression in the southwest, we must pay attention to safety here at night!" Let's go, bye-bye! ”

After the four men walked away, Yao Chunsheng whispered: "They are all idle wanderers, all of them are lively bears!" ”

Luo Fang said with a smile: "Professor Yao, people come here for exploration, not for leisure and entertainment. ”

Yao Chunsheng snorted lightly: "Hmph! Bullshit Adventure! Xiaofang, don't believe them, there is no gold mine at home, what do you take out to explore? Transportation, equipment, drinking water, food, which one doesn't need money? Without strong financial support, who would dare to go into the desert and take such a risk? ”

This seems to be quite reasonable, when you go out to travel, the first condition to be met is - that is, you have to have money and time, a poor worker, what do you let him (she) take to play outside in a chic and free way? Although the meaning and starting point of adventure and travel are different, I am afraid that if you don't have money, you won't even be able to leave your home.

Luo Fang also had to admit this, for example, this time the institute sent a mission to the desert, the car was provided by the unit, the instruments and equipment were provided by the unit, and the food and drinking water were provided by the unit.

In the evening, after Qiao Benliang and the four of them had eaten and drunk enough, they began to discuss the matter of going to the Peacock Castle.

Because the two places where monsters were found before were near the Peacock Castle, only by taking advantage of the night to wait in that area will there be a greater harvest. Qiao Benliang said: "This time we have to drive a car, I mean this, firstly, the speed of driving will not delay time, and secondly, we can withstand the wind chill in the middle of the night." ”

"Then you're not afraid that the monster will spit out a mouthful of fire and burn you with a car?" Chen Jie was smiling and gesturing on the side.

Qiao Benliang rolled his eyes angrily, kicked his ass with his foot, and scolded: "Bah, you are a dead fatty, you just say some unlucky bullshit, you let the monster eat it!" ”

Lunengda also agreed with driving: "Brother Qiao is right, if you walk over, it is indeed a bit laborious, it will take at least more than an hour from the camp to the Peacock Castle, which is very physically exhausting. ”

However, the flying fox Sun Houzi had an idea, he said: "I don't advocate driving there, because what? The target is too big to drive, and it's easy for monsters to notice wow! ”

Qiao Benliang smiled and said, "Brother Sun, have you found a problem?" ”

Sun Houzi asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Qiao Benliang said: "Actually, according to my observation, this monster's eyesight is not very good, or it can't see things clearly at all, it mainly uses sound and breath to determine the direction of objects. ”

"Smell the sound? I don't understand what you mean, brother, can you please explain it again? Sun Hou Zicai was a shallow learner and didn't understand what he said.

"Well, in layman's terms, this monster relies solely on its sense of hearing and smell to determine if there is anything alive in front of it. There is also a more important point that the eyes of this monster are very afraid of light, perhaps because the world it lives in is fundamentally different from our environment, so it is a little unsuitable for the light exposure. ”

"Alright then, according to your wishes, let's drive the car!"

The four of them finally agreed, grabbed the required items, and stepped out of the tent to get ready to go. At this time, Chen Jie said: "Three brothers, wait for a while, I'm going to go for a while, haha." ”

Qiao Benliang scolded: "You are a dead fatty, you have a lot of and urine, hurry up, or we will leave you alone in the camp." ”

Chen Jie clasped his hands together, grinned and said, "Please, please, Brother Liang!" Don't leave me here alone! He threw off his stride and hurried toward the other side of the dune.

It didn't take long to hear Chen Jie running over screaming, shouting, "There are ghosts!" There's a ghost there! ......" Qiao Benliang stepped forward and grabbed the fat man and asked, "Little Fatty, hurry up and say, what did you see?" ”

Chen Jie's face turned blue with fright, and his voice trembled a little when he spoke: "Iβ€”I'm behind the sand duneβ€”and I saw a dark shadow fluttering back and forth, oops, mom, butβ€”it's scared me to death!" ”

Lunengda smiled: "Little fat brother, are you dazzled?" Don't scare yourself with your own chatter! ”

Chen Jie repeatedly insisted on his statement: "Really! Yes – it's true! I can't be mistaken, there's a- something floating up and down this way! ”

The flying fox Sun Houzi pulled out the soft sword from his waist and shouted: "I'm afraid of a bird's egg!" If a goblin does come, my sword will make it go! ”

As soon as the words landed, a woman's voice suddenly came: "What are you doing here?" Looks like you're going to go out? ”

Everyone was stunned, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then looked for prestige, and saw a woman walking towards the camp with light steps, Qiao Benliang hurriedly turned on the flashlight, and then he could see clearly, it turned out to be the beautiful woman he met during the day.
