Chapter 45: Boosting Morale

I was shocked at first, Da Chun's mouth couldn't stop Amitabha, and the others didn't think there was anything, after all, they were all archaeological teams that had been dealing with dead people for a long time, although Tong Qin was not an archaeological team, he was originally a doctor, and he didn't feel anything about these things, but now he knows that there are no monsters here, and a hanging heart has fallen to the ground.

I don't know how many years these white bones have been buried underneath, there is no skin and flesh left, and they are extremely smooth by the fine yellow sand. We will have some doubts about this human bone to die here, the dead in the desert rarely decay, the ancient corpse of the ancient Loulan Kingdom found in the Xiaohe tomb group, without any special treatment, the corpse was simply put into a coffin, after thousands of years, only the water evaporated, but the corpse was very well preserved. But there is no skin and flesh on this white bone, there are only two possibilities, one is older than the Xiaohe tomb group in Xinjiang, and the other is that it was eaten up by the ant lion.

Da Chun thinks this is not strange, if it weren't for this phoenix egg, I'm afraid it would be impossible to find this place at all. Under normal circumstances, most of the people who come here to rest are the same as the situation we encountered, but not everyone who enters this desert will be as lucky as us, and when we meet Li Guohua, a wealthy Hong Kong businessman, even if we can't find this place, the large amount of water we carry will not be lost, and these Bai Sensen's human bones are estimated to have been lost before hiding in this ancient castle. After the wind and sand, he was trapped in this hellish place.

The antlion itself is a carnivorous insect, very small, the largest is only seven centimeters, when predating, it will set a funnel-shaped trap, like a large prey or food like a person, they will turn up the sand underneath, bury the food in the sand, and slowly gnaw on.

Generally speaking, the windy sand in this desert is a disaster for large animals, but it is a gift from God for this insect that lives in the dry sand all year round, not only people, but also a large number of animals will take refuge and die in the wind and sand. Often at this time, they are the most vulnerable, and a pack of antlions swarms up and it won't be long before a sand wolf is buried alive in the soil.

The fat man was not interested in any of these at first, but when he heard that there were still large animals in this place, he came to his senses, so he asked Dachun if there would be sand wolves, yellow sheep and the like in this place. Da Chun nodded noncommittally.

Tong Qin, who was holding Li Mei on the side, was frightened when he heard that there were wolves in this place. The fat man couldn't care about those, pulled Li Guohua's two subordinates, the second and third, put on goggles, covered his mouth, nose and ears with a turban, and turned out of the hole. After two cigarettes, the fat man came back, covered with sand, and sat on the ground: "This wind is blowing, if I don't pull the two of them lightly with my own weight, I'm afraid I can blow them away, but the old man is not wrong, there are really large animals in this place, then a few yellow sheep and wolves are hiding in a house, and when the wind is light, I will fight two, we haven't eaten fresh meat these days, this time the fat also makes you all open the meat, do you want to eat wolf meat or mutton?" ”

When Dachun heard this, he resolutely disagreed, and held the Buddha beads in his hand and kept Amitabha: "Amitabha.... No, no, God has the virtue of a good life, since the Buddha saved you, they can hide here, and it is the Buddha's grace that saved them, if you go to kill them, you are against the Buddha, and the Buddha will punish you at that time. ”

The fat man hurriedly stopped and said: "Come on, don't say it, I won't go, even the Buddha has moved out, why don't you go to heaven?" I have jerky and canned food here, right? I heard that you Buddhists can't eat meat, and you can't drink my liquor, so you should eat your dried fruits. After that, he took out the dried meat, canned food, and liquor from the bag and distributed them to everyone, Da Chun swallowed his saliva and pretended to be calm and rolled the Buddha beads in his hand.

I really didn't look down, so I handed over everything I ate and drank to Da Chun, and Da Chun couldn't stop chanting Amitabha Buddha in his mouth, and said that the Buddha would bless you. After running for most days in this desert, they are now trapped in the ancient castle full of carnivorous insects below, except for the fat man, Da Chun and the second and third children, the rest of the people have no appetite to eat.

What worries me the most is Li Mei, in Dachun's words, this should be her calamity, dysmenorrhea may be painful throughout the menstrual cycle, and if it is short, it may be fine for one or two strokes, the best way is to lie in bed and rest well, and then drink more hot brown sugar water. Where do we have this kind of condition now, not to mention hot brown sugar water, even hot water is a little difficult, the only hope is that she can carry it herself, Tong Qin's medical skills are really good, young Chinese and Western medicine proficient, no wonder Emma will choose her to join the archaeological team, we look at the simple acupressure after looking at Li Mei's expression and know that the pain has improved significantly, and after drinking two sips of water, the spirit is much better.

The fat man took the wine jug and handed it over: "Sister, drink some wine, it won't hurt for a while." ”

Tong Qin stopped him: "You're going to die, she can't drink....", followed by a stinking scolding, no wonder he doesn't have a daughter-in-law in his thirties, he doesn't know how to cherish women, and he still makes people drink when he comes on period, he has no culture and no common sense.

scolded the fat man for a moment, he didn't expect a sentence to attract this endless, and he wanted to say something to explain himself, and when he saw that Tong Qin was still counting himself endlessly, he quickly shut up and stopped talking.

Li Mei, who was already sober at this time, gently patted the back of Tong Qin's hand: "Brother Li, don't mind, Tong Qin is such a person, anyone who has a little problem will become her patient, whether you understand it or not, as long as she does a little bit of something that makes her feel that it is not good for the patient, she is like this." If it weren't for you and Brother Zou, the two of us would have been buried alive by the sandstorm by now. ”

The fat man scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "You want to thank you, or thank Lao Zou, he found out that you fell behind first." ”

I waved my hand: "Don't mind, you still want to thank Master Li, we can't take the money for nothing, we have to do something, you are like this, if it is too late to turn back now, it will be too late to go back when you get to Qucheng." ”

Li Mei shook her head with some difficulty: "Don't worry, I won't trouble everyone, I can go by myself when the wind and sand are over, and this kind of windy sand is not common in the desert, there is only such a time for many years, let us catch up, maybe something will be blown out waiting for us to excavate." ”

I just said to hear this, even if she really wanted to go back, it was a problem who to send her, Li Guohua pulled me aside and whispered to me: "Mr. Zou, first of all, I want to say sorry to you, I was worried about whether you can be the desert leader this time, but now it seems that you are the only one." We were hit by such a storm as soon as we entered the desert, and the morale of the team members was greatly damaged, but we have made a new discovery about this map, and at this time, I hope you can continue to persevere, boost the morale of the team, and cheer them up. ”

The old club has spoken, and it's not a problem to be difficult, isn't it just to boost morale, I think that when the enemy army was several times larger than me in Vietnam, the soldiers' taste was so low, didn't I come over too? However, the concept of the people I was facing at this time was completely different from the people and environment I was facing at that time, and I didn't know where to start: "This... Comrades, this atmosphere is a bit dull, the most taboo thing about our marching and fighting is low morale, the atmosphere is dull, I will tell you a story while you are resting. ”

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, it's a little inexplicable, when did our archaeological team fight with the marching army, and when did it go, who is still in the mood to listen to your story, more than a dozen pairs of eyes stared at me silently, and no one understood what was going on.

I thought to myself, this is the archaeological team, how did I take out the set of lectures for recruits in the army, but the story still has to be told, so I quickly changed my words: "Hmm... Although we are an archaeological team, the danger we face is no less than that of marching and fighting, so I will tell you a story about the time when we first marched and fought, how about it? ”

As soon as everyone heard that archaeological operations can be raised to a level with marching battles, they immediately became interested in the story I told next, and quickly gathered around me to listen to me while eating: "I'll tell you a story about the war in Vietnam, I believe that there are few people here who don't know, thinking that the Vietnamese monkeys kept harassing our borders, and the top leaders of our country warned again and again, and this group of monkeys jumped up and down on the border and ignored it." My unit was stationed at the border at that time, and when I heard the constant news of people surfing the Internet, I was holding back the fire in my belly, and the orders from above were like chicken blood, and the rain of bullets and bullets was unmoved, because our border with Vietnam was mostly mountains and forests, and my company received a task, that is, to seize a hilltop position within two hours, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the monkeys' equipment was mostly new weapons left by the Americans, which were much more advanced than the guys in our hands. It is also equipped with a large number of heavy firearms, and both sides know that this is a fortress, and if we take it, the road behind can be driven straight in, and if it cannot be attacked, there will be no behind. I think that we were also a heroic company during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, a company of sharp knives, we did not occupy the time, the right place, and even the equipment was inferior to them, the heroic and fearless spirit of the soldiers played a decisive role, we withstood the enemy's continuous artillery fire, a few soldiers who rushed to the front, taking advantage of the enemy's exchange of ammunition, holding explosives bags and rushing straight to the enemy's heavy firearms, to the brothers behind a bloody road....."
