Chapter 40: Night Attack

The two cars continued to speed forward, Zhang Xiaofan took out the map, if his calculation was correct, there was the entrance to the tomb they were looking for near the ancient channel of the Peacock River in front of them. Pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info ancient Loulan in the Han Dynasty is the power of the 36 countries of the Western Regions, it connects Dunhuang to the east, northwest to Yuli, the British Stein has been here many times to dig and steal, Zhang Xiaofan in the early years had participated in the investigation and excavation of the ancient country of Loulan, at that time was very intentional to save the record, he believed that since there are a large number of civilian tombs in the Kum River, then the tomb of the king of Loulan must exist, it will only be more brilliant. This ancient country is located in the corridor of China and the West, which is like a throat, and has a history of more than 800 years, why did it disappear mysteriously? Even the subsequent history books are no longer recorded, and the king's tomb has not been found to this day? It proves that this tomb must be very hidden! Over the years, he has consulted a large number of historical materials, studied local culture and legends, and pursued the clues of the king's tomb in Loulan, relentlessly pursued and studied day and night, and finally found some eyebrows by him at the beginning of this year.

"If this discovery is true," he muttered as he looked at the map.

"Then we can thank you, and we're all going to make a fortune!" Lao Wang picked up Zhang Xiaofan's words and said with a smile, thinking that this Zhang Gong was really a capable person as the big boss said, and the tomb he was referring to had never been empty.

Zhang Xiaofan looked up at Lao Wang and smiled, then lowered his head and calculated to make a marker.

At sunset, they finally arrived at the destination with layers of wooden piles on the periphery, Lao Wang stopped the car according to Zhang Xiaofan's instructions, came down to look at the group of strange wooden buildings like the sun, couldn't help touching his head, and couldn't help leaning towards Zhang Xiaofan: "Zhang Gong, why do I think that these seven layers of large and small wooden piles seem to be surrounded by a sun?" "This place is indeed called the Sun Tomb!" Zhang Xiaofan replied. "Hey, I'm really right!" Lao Wang muttered incredulously, and saw Zhang Xiaofan flash into the stake.

The setting sun still has a lingering glow, but the temperature in Lop Nur has dropped sharply. Lao Wang watched Zhang Xiaofan frequently enter and exit several tombs with the notes in his hand, and groped repeatedly on the stake, as if he was verifying what he was seeking, and suddenly, he looked up at the sky and walked out of it.

"Lao Wang, I calculated the location of the tomb entrance and the best time to enter the tomb, you let the brothers camp nearby first, we will rest here today, and go to the tomb tomorrow."

"Okay!" Lao Wang hurriedly responded, this time when he went out, the big boss had told him, and let him listen to Zhang Xiaofan on and off the tomb.

"By the way, there is a big temperature difference in the desert, you ask the brothers to pay attention to keeping warm!" Saying that, Zhang Xiaofan flashed into one of the tombs again.

"Hey, just talking, people, cough cough, this senior intellectual is just different, really dedicated." Lao Wang said and walked over to the car, "Brothers, they have all come down and set up camp, let's sleep here for one night tonight, and we are all rested!" Tomorrow when he is ugly, he will go to the grave. Kaizi, Lao Zhou, you immediately build a fire and boil water to prepare dinner, Cai Tou, Anzi, Da Niu, Lao Xu, the four of you set up tents, by the way, the temperature difference in the desert is large, give each person a cold-proof cotton coat. Gangzi and I are in charge of guarding, and we are still two people in the old rules, working in shifts of three hours. Lao Wang arranged it after a while.

After a while, it was completely dark, and Zhang Xiaofan also walked out of the tomb and went into the tent. The sound of hot water and the smell of roasting naan came from the tent in the desolate desert, and I saw that the tent that opened the tent door was stacked with stones in the middle of a large circle of fully burning charcoal, and a wooden frame was built with wooden stakes from local materials, and a large iron pot was spitting hot air with an iron hook, and the naan was placed on the hot stones and roasted... Everyone sat in a circle, eating cakes and drinking hot tea. With food and warmth in the tents, people relaxed... The charcoal in the fire had burned out, but the stones were still hot with temperature, Zhang Xiaofan was also full of fatigue, took the cold-proof cotton clothes given by Lao Wang and put them on his body, and took a big wool blanket to wrap himself up and get into the sleeping bag.

Lao Wang and Gangzi looked at each other and nodded, walked out, put down the tent door, and stood on the first shift as usual. Lao Wang was carrying a solar lantern while staring vigilantly at the night, patrolling around the tent, he felt that there were ghosts and shadows all around, he looked at Gangzi's young and fearless face, and thought to himself that he was like this when he was young, right? Now after all, the years are unforgiving, perhaps, after doing this vote, it is really time to retire!

Three hours said very slowly, but it passed quickly, the time passed after a while, Lao Xu and Da Niu came to take over the second shift, Lao Wang and Lao Xu tacitly nodded, and wanted to hand over the lamp in their hands, but saw the light shining in the tent, the ground suddenly rose and fell slightly, not good! He said in his heart, and hurriedly shouted: "Everyone, don't sleep!" Get up! ”
