The Lonely Lamp in the Desert Chapter 39 Map
What was removed from the stone was a scroll of animal skins tied with thin threads, which I tore from the scroll and slowly unfolded it and laid it on the stone table beside it. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The scroll could be half a meter long and twenty or thirty centimeters wide when unfolded, and it may have been placed so far ago that the skin scroll had yellowed, and in some places it had even been broken, and it should have been a very ancient object on the whole.
Several people gathered around the table, all wanting to take the first step to see what the mystery was on it, although the animal skin scroll had been yellowed, but the picture depicted on it was still quite clear, and it had not lost its true color because of its age.
Look at the animal skin scroll should be drawn on a map, the lower right corner of the map is drawn a slender pitch black, should be where we are now, from the pile of rubble, there is a winding line, the thin line bends directly to the upper left corner of the map to a place with a mountain pattern before stopping.
Just now, when I was outside, I visually measured the length of the pile of rubble, it should not be less than three or five hundred meters, and the pile of rubble of three or five hundred meters is only three or five centimeters on the map, and from the pile of rubble on the map to the peak in the upper left corner, it is more than half a meter long. Except for the rocks and peaks and the pattern of the thin lines, all the other large areas on the map are vacant, and even the coordinates of east, west, north and south are not marked, in other words, it is not impossible for us to go in the opposite direction if we really follow the direction of the map.
It seems that there is nothing worth remembering in this rocky cave, the treasure is definitely gone, and we have also walked through most of the positions in the cave, and now the most urgent thing should be to leave the cave quickly, go out to replenish the water, and then make further plans.
We had already walked the way we came, and there was no danger in the slightest, and of course there was no problem in going back this way, because we knew that there would be no danger along the way, and the speed when we went back was much faster, and it only took us about a third of the time we came in to crawl out of the hole that looked like a tiger's mouth.
All the camels rested honestly next to the pile of rocks, and the puppies in the basket did not bark because they had not seen their owners for most of the day, and a few of us took out some water from the tank to replenish the water lost by the body, and "Whitebeard" beckoned us to hurry up and get on the camels, and walk a few more steps before the hottest time of the day.
Riding on the camel, I slowly opened the scroll of animal skin that I had just brought out of the cave from my waist, and wanted to take advantage of the sunlight to study the drawings on it carefully, I am afraid that the cave is too dim, and there are some subtle places that we have not noticed, and maybe now that the light is sufficient, we can also find some secrets that have not been discovered before.
The map under the sun is indeed clearer, but it is still a few simple pictures, and there are no more clues because of the abundant light.
During this time of looking at the map, my camel had unconsciously walked to the front of the caravan, and went hand in hand with the "white-bearded" camel. I pointed to the mountain markers on the map: "Old man, can you tell which direction this mountain is?" ”
"Whitebeard" squinted at the place of my finger and waved his hand: "I can't find it, this big desert is full of yellow sand, as far as the eye can see, if it is so close, there will be mountains, don't we have seen it long ago on camels!" And the stone tablet in the cave is not written, the treasure is to be left to the destined people, we can't see the mountain, it means that we are not destined people! "Whitebeard" said to me in a slightly joking tone, took out a cigarette gun from his pocket, and took two mouthfuls: "Don't worry about the treasures in the desert, forget the story of the gold rush team I told you before?" Greedy for the treasures in the desert at will will be punished by heaven and provoke black sandstorms, don't think that no one knows what we do, the gods will see it clearly! Whitebeard pointed to the sky, meaning that there might be gods snooping on us now.
"Whitebeard" told me this, I also think it makes sense, maybe we are indeed not destined to be Prince McSeey, so we are destined not to see the treasure he left behind, and the story of the gold rush team is too scary, I don't want to cause a black sandstorm because of my greed, and then put my life on this barren place where birds don't, and I'm afraid it's impossible to return to the roots in this life.
Besides, the most important thing now is to help Lu Yubo find the desert magic lamp before the water source is exhausted, help him realize his wish, and then I can also get the 100,000 yuan salary that belongs to me, leave this barren land, and return to my hometown for a few days.
Also, I still have this animal skin scroll in my hand, it seems that it is very old, even if all the possible mistakes are counted, when the time comes, take this thing back and let the old grandson help me change it, thinking that it must be much more expensive than the samurai dagger that I collected from the grassland last time.
The amount of water in the desert was far greater than I expected, and after collecting the hides, I glanced at the water tanks carried by the camels behind me, the boxes of water had only been a day, and we were almost half exhausted before I knew it, and now we had nothing to find the magic lamp, and if we could not find the magic lamp, we would really have to return because of the water.
After communicating with Lu Yubo for so many days, I think he is really good, even if it is not for the extra 80,000 yuan, I want to do my best to help him find the magic lamp, although I am an old bachelor, but I heard him say that night about his emotional experience, but it really moved me, I don't want to be so serious for love people in the end but not get serious love.
Mazi saw that I had been chatting with "Whitebeard" in front of me for most of the day and hadn't returned, and urged his camel to walk a few steps quickly to catch up with me: "Old Xu, aren't you going to look for what the place on the map is where the peak is drawn?" I'm so curious, like a fucking cat's paws! ”
"Forget it, let's just assume that this didn't happen, we're here to find the magic lamp this time, not to hunt for treasures, you still have to bother for your 100,000 yuan!" I squeezed my eyes and spoke to him, to be honest, which inverted bucket can't say that he is not curious about the ancient treasures, it is impossible, in fact, I also want to find this mountain peak in my heart to take a good look, but I hear the meaning of "Whitebeard" is now uncertain about the location of the mountain, but even if he knows the specific location, I am afraid he will not be willing to take us there.
When Mazi saw my eyes, he also understood, and squeezed his eyes at me: "Also, let's fuck find the magic lamp!" ”
