Chapter 479: Approaching the Truth

Everyone threw the body of the man in the robe out of the car, but they felt more or less unbearable, Liang Yien stood next to him and mourned for thirty seconds.

Xu Jiuyan looked at Guan Zheng with a little complaint: "He didn't do anything hurtful, how could he end up like this?" ”

Guan Zheng said: "He didn't kill people and set fires, but don't forget, which of the things they did didn't harm the interests of the country?" ”

Guan Zheng clapped his hands and said, "Okay, everyone come over and have a small meeting." ”

Just a few people, and they all had a meeting around the two cars. Guan Zheng first solemnly introduced Peng Jiadi to everyone: "Everyone, this is the famous Professor Peng Jiadi, a famous archaeologist. ”

Peng Jiadi nodded slightly and said, "After waiting for ten years, I finally waited for you here." ”

Guan Zheng explained: "Professor Peng Jiadi is unwilling to betray the interests of the country, so he pretends to be crazy and stupid, in fact, he knows what he thinks in his heart. ”

Only then did everyone understand, Peng Jia nodded, and said: "A lot of big things have happened in the past ten years, I am thinking and speculating every day, and I am thinking hard every day, but I am fortunate to meet you people." ”

Xu Jiuyan asked, "Then you must know a lot of information." ”

Peng Jia waved his hand and said, "Not necessarily, the information I know is limited, and I don't know what's going on outside, so I can't guess all of it." But there are a few things I can be sure of.

First of all, the people who kidnapped me, there was not just one person who kidnapped me, but an organization, and they came to me for the purpose of mining and excavating artifacts, and they didn't clearly state what they were looking for, so I can be sure that they see artifacts as a source of income. As the so-called crime also requires capital, you know this better than me.

The second place is the place, I don't know how I got in, but I can get a rough idea of how we're going to get out. The underground river here leads to the outside, but the exact situation is not very clear. And there's another problem, which is our car, which is a necessity, but we have no way to get it to take us out without destroying the buildings here. ”

Guan Nuo was also very embarrassed: "Actually, it's really difficult, the buildings here are all connected to each other, once we destroy some of them, it is very likely that all of them will collapse, and none of us will be able to get out." And if we don't have a car, we can't get in touch, we can't carry a lot of necessities, and we can't guarantee that we can get out of here. ”

Lao You touched his chin and said, "This is really a problem, Master Zheng, what do you think?" ”

Guan Zheng opened his mouth and said: "Then take a gamble!" ”

"How to bet?" Everyone looked at Guan Zheng.

Guan Zheng said: "Drive out." The Yadan landform is all rocks after wind erosion, and our Rolmi area is not completely desertified, it has a certain bearing capacity, our car is also, this off-road vehicle is designed with aerospace materials, we might as well fight, try to see how far we can go, can't go out and say we can't go out, we will admit it. ”

Peng Jiadi took the lead in raising his hand and said: "I agree, since we have no way out, let's fight, and this is the best way for us now." ”

Peng Jiadi looked at the map for a while and said, "Just follow the direction, to the west, you can see the ruins of the ancient city, and we will look at the road after that." ”

Everyone got into the car and headed west. The car drove nimbly, nimbly through narrow crevices in the rocks, and the shell of the car was already scratched, but fortunately it still worked.

And the most surprising thing is the style of this Lingtian Ancient City. More than a dozen of the walls around Lingtian Ancient City have collapsed, leaving only intermittent walls standing alone.

Peng Jia got out of the car and said, "This is Lingtian Ancient City, the urban area is square, with an area of about 120,000 square meters. The panorama of the ruins of the sky is ancient and dignified, and the dilapidated architectural relics in the city are lifeless, which is particularly desolate and tragic. The ancient city of Loulan is an irregular square city, the east city wall is 333.5 meters, the south city wall is 329 meters, the west and north two walls are 237 meters, due to strong wind erosion and most of the buildings in the city are mostly broken, but the three official treasury rooms in the city are strong because of the thick wall, and they are well preserved so far.

Although the stupa in the city has been eroded by the wind, it is still 10.4 meters above the ground, which has become a symbol of looking for the ancient city from a distance. Although it has been stolen many times by foreign expeditions, some broken ancient coins and ancient decorative items can still be found on the ground, and black and red sand-filled pottery shards abound. The heavy house timber is upside down, and there are dead poplars and red willows growing next to the ancient canal, and the ancient city of Lingtian is still well preserved by the wind. This is due to the fact that the Yadan landform within a radius of 100 miles of Tiangu City made it difficult for vehicles to travel, which caused the passage to be cut off in history, and it was difficult for human footprints to reach here, and it was not damaged by nearby farmers and herdsmen. Therefore, the expedition team that could reach the ancient city was also on camel or foot, and the follow-up personnel rented expensive desert vehicles to reach the vicinity of the Lingtian City North Pagoda along the river we walked. ”

"It turns out that Lingtian Ancient City has always existed!" Guan Nuo was also surprised: "Didn't you say that the ancient city disappeared mysteriously?" ”

Peng Jiadi said: "Do you want to say that it is haunted? The culture of the ancient city has indeed been lost, but it has always been there, and we have found this, and we have also recovered the Lingtian culture. ”

Guan Zheng asked Peng Jiadi: "When did you find this place?" ”

Peng Jiadi recalled: "Ten years ago. Ten years ago, when I disappeared, I entered here, and I was as surprised and happy as you are, and I was about to return to call someone, when I was caught by the group on the way. ”

Guan Zheng asked, "Then didn't you tell them the news?" ”

Peng Jia nodded and said, "I think that's what they're looking for in secret." Although they ostensibly bought and sold cultural relics, they kept me, which shows that I am valuable to them, and I dare say that I am the only one in the world who can find this ancient city. ”

"Then does this explain the disappearance of the Heavenly Ancient Kingdom?" Guan Nuo asked curiously.

Peng Jia said: "It should be caused by wandering." Refers to lakes that have been displaced many times in a historical period. Lake Rolmi is a typical migratory lake. Lake Rolmi is an estuary lake of the Peacock River and the Tarim River. Over the past 2,000 years, the lower reaches of the Tarim River have been significantly diverted three times, and Rommy has moved three times, and a dam has been built in Yuli County to cut off the flow of the Tarim River, with only the water of the Peacock River flowing into Lop Nur, and the Tarim River flowing into Lake Taitma in the south of Rolmi. In this way, the position of the two lakes is relatively stable. ”
