Chapter 66: Flashed
We had just arrived at the door when we met Philos, who was tidying up the sheepfold, and it seemed that he had just returned from herding, or was feeding the sheep, and when he heard our voice, he looked back, and he covered his eyes as the flashlight shone on him, and we turned the flashlight off.

He recognized us at a glance, after all, it was only a day or two in between, and he had a lot of hay in his hand, and it seemed that he was tidying up the sheepfold, and when he saw him drop the hay in his hand, he greeted us with no lessening enthusiasm, and greeted him with a smile, and after closing the sheepfold, he came and invited us into the house to do it.
It's really a relief to meet such a good family when you go out, we are so hungry now, here Abu is the most uncompetitive, his stomach has begun to thunder, Abu doesn't feel embarrassed, he touched his belly a few times, and looked at us blankly.
As soon as he heard the sound of Abu's stomach growling, he smiled and said, "It seems that you are hungry, hurry up and go in, I will ask my daughter-in-law to cook you a few bowls of mutton to eat!" We gladly accepted each other, went into the room and sat down, and thanked each other.
"Thank you, Comrade Ross, we're a little hungry." My father laughed, took out the two shotguns from the compartment of his backpack, handed them to Ross, and continued to thank: "Thank you for the shotgun, this shotgun really came in handy, I went in and met the beast, and the bullets were all gone." ā
When he heard this, he happily replied: "Thank God that you can come out safe and sound, don't thank me." With that, he took the shotgun and put it back.
Of course, our backpacks are all put together, and the contents naturally can't be known to his family, and we don't know how to thank his family, the second uncle took out some of the cash we left behind from his pocket, handed it to Queros and said: "Uncle Queros, you must accept this money, otherwise I don't want to go." ā
When he looked at it, he smiled awkwardly: "You're polite, how can I take your money, I've always been hospitable, and I'm not bad for money, haha!" As he spoke, he pushed back the cash in the second uncle's hand, and the second uncle's repeated persuasion was useless, so he had to take it back.
The second uncle said with some embarrassment: "Uncle Rose is really a good person!" Unrewarded! ā
"Okay, you're welcome, they're all friends, come, eat meat!" At this time, the wife of Rose brought a few bowls of hot, fragrant mutton, and a lot of hot goat's milk, just to make us comfortable, and after eating, we casually set up a score with Rose.
At this time, the second uncle didn't know what he was thinking, and asked Uncle Qiuluo: "Comrade Qiuluo, I heard you say that you have been in Xinjiang for a while, right?" ā
"yes, what's wrong?" Ross asked, puzzled.
"That's the case, we like to be adventurous, I heard that there is some fun in that area of Lop Nur in Xinjiang, and I want to try it, especially the place in the ancient country of Loulan before!" The second uncle forcibly explained.
"Where are you going? I can't go! That place is too dangerous. He took a cup of goat's milk, drank it, and said, "Many people died in that place, and I heard that there were undead people in that place, and they ate people who passed by." ā
I thought to myself, it's not so exaggerated, that place used to be part of the Silk Road, if there were really cannibalistic undead, then how did this Silk Road end, so I asked: "Uncle Rose, that place is the land of the Silk Road after all, this person is dead, so how can this Silk Road come about?" ā
"Hey, young man, you don't know, the place you said about the ancient country of Loulan is on the edge of the Silk Road, I heard that there were many people buried in that place, and these people have become undead after death, although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I have heard a lot from the older generation, so we are all convinced." Ross replied.
"Do you know who those buried are? Why bury them! The second uncle asked again.
Rose sighed and said: "Comrade, I am really happy to live in this era, listening to the stories handed down by the older generation, those people were used by the king of Loulan to accompany the burial, I heard that there is a tomb of the king of the ancient kingdom of Loulan in that place, and I don't know which king it is, but it has been so many years, and the tomb does not know how deep it is buried in the ground, the story is so, I don't know if it is true!" ā
The second uncle was thoughtful, and glanced at us a few times before he came to Dao Xuanluo: "I see, then let's not go, it's too scary to hear you say." "Actually, we all know that according to the temper of Ross, we will definitely dissuade us, and we don't want him to know that we are fighting backwards, so in order to avoid this unnecessary trouble, there is nothing wrong with the second uncle going back like this.
"Let's get some rest, everybody! I think you're tired, too. "We had not been composing for a long time, and Ross persuaded us that it was getting late now, and that we should all rest on our own terms, and that we should go the next day.
It was almost noon when I got up the next day, and when I got up, I didn't see Rose, but when Rose's wife saw us get up, she hurried to give us something hot to eat, and I thought I wouldn't trouble her, but she was ready, and we couldn't refuse.
We didn't have time to say goodbye to Rose, so we had to say goodbye to Rose's wife, thank you and say goodbye, and tell her that we must thank Uncle Rose, we really can't get over this kind of hospitality, and they don't take any of our money, and we don't have too many polite words, so we pack up and leave after saying goodbye.
We found a carriage and arrived at a train station outside the ranch, where the sun was about to go down and we soon got on a train bound for Shanxi.
We were lucky, the places we bought were all connected, so we didn't worry about not being able to talk along the way, and the contents of this backpack had to be taken care of, so we didn't dare to sleep together, and the master took the halberd back and wrapped it in a black cloth, which looked like a ukulele and put it on his back like a shovel.
"Second uncle, do we have to go to Xinjiang?" I asked in a whisper.
"It seems that we have to go, but it's not an hour yet, let's go back and discuss with Mrs. Chen first, let's go to Xinjiang like this, we don't have any specific clues, how to find it!" The second uncle replied, and after speaking, he looked at the master and my father, and saw that they were all asleep, and said to me: "Rest first, and then discuss it when you go back." ā
I nodded, put the backpack under my feet, and squinted for a while, this squint fell asleep directly, got up halfway to go to the toilet, but I was too sleepy, I didn't know how long I slept when I lay down, and when I woke up, my father and they were already sitting there and posing the score, looking at the situation outside, we have entered Shanxi, and the time is probably the next morning.
After a long journey, I finally came back.
