Chapter Seventy-Six: An Liman
Several people returned to the ground together, and Professor Chen and the others hurriedly asked about their situation below. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Listening to them tell what happened, especially when Gawa and the big man carefully described the appearance of the "water monster", Professor Chen was shocked to tell them that it was an amphibian reptile species from ancient times, called the overlord salamander. This creature is very aggressive, and it should have been extinct long ago during the Ice Age!
After hearing that this terrifying prehistoric creature had been killed by Xia Yang, the people of the archaeological team and the soldiers were all so shocked that they couldn't speak.
Later, he learned that the nine-story demon building with important research value had been burned down by the Dapu ghost worm, and Professor Chen and Hao Aiguo were both choked and shouted that it was a pity.
And when they came up in front, the little warrior who stayed behind to keep in touch with the outside world had already informed them, not long ago, he received an alarm from the station under the mountain that there was about to be a very big snowstorm on the Kunlun Glacier, and they must evacuate as soon as possible.
While they were still talking, a cold wind had already blown, and the sky was gloomy, and a snowstorm could sweep in at any moment.
In such an environment, although those Dapu ghost insects and overlord salamanders were dead, they could no longer go down to investigate and study those ghost cave inscriptions and the items in the burial ditch, so they could only wait for the snowstorm to pass. Immediately, everyone began to pack up their things and quickly retreated down the mountain!
Halfway through, the blizzard arrived as scheduled. That terrible celestial phenomenon, even from a long distance, can be seen clearly, and it is terrifying!
Fortunately, they are no longer in the center of the blizzard, and the impact is not too great.
The blizzard lasted for a day and a night, and after the wind stopped and the snow stopped, the archaeological team came here again, only to find that the landform here had changed greatly, and the deep and long ice crevasse had disappeared and was buried in the vast sea of snow.
In desperation, they could only give up, return to the station at the foot of the mountain, and after a little rectification, they headed for the Xinjiang Desert again.
After this trip to Kunlun Glacier, Xia Yang has also become vigilant and cautious about rashly changing the plot!
Although this time under his warning and protection, all the people who entered the ice cave came out intact, without any attrition, unlike the original play, where there were dead and wounded. But it turns out that intervening in the plot is risky and extremely uncontrollable, and if you act recklessly because you know the plot well, it will only make the situation develop in an unpredictable direction.
Xia Yang had previously asked Shirley Yang to stop funding this archaeological team, and the few of them planned to go to the desert alone to find the exquisite ancient city. First, it can save the lives of this group of people and prevent them from dying in the desert. Second, after all, the four of them are not ordinary people, not to mention themselves, Hu Bayi, Wang Fatzi, and Shirley Yang are the veritable iron triangle, and they are the protagonists of this plane. It's just that if the four of them go, it can save a lot of time and trouble, and it can also greatly reduce all kinds of dangers.
Xia Yang is not the kind of person who is indifferent, and he will not ignore the lives of others, especially the elderly and students. It is a small matter to be a nanny for them, in case the protection is not good, and there is an accident in the desert, he is afraid that he will be uneasy. So, he really didn't want to be responsible for the lives of these people.
However, after careful consideration of the glacier, Xia Yang still dispelled this thought.
Not to mention that changing the plot will be extremely risky, and secondly, the cost of doing so is too high. He had to persuade Shirley Yang to agree, but also persuade the archaeological team to give up, not only that, but he might even have to convince Hu Bayi, it was too troublesome!
Moreover, although Xia Yang knows the general direction, and Hu Bayi also knows the feng shui of the stars, he wants to find the exquisite ancient city that has long disappeared in the sea of sand, and he doesn't want to read novels and TV. Without the archaeological knowledge of Professor Chen and others, they may not be able to find them alone.
Considering these problems, Xia Yang also abandoned this idea and only regarded the next line of work as a practice!
After arriving in Xinjiang, Hu Bayi proposed to find a person who was familiar with the desert as a guide, because the desert is not an ordinary place, and experience is often more reliable than professional.
His proposal was unanimously endorsed by others. Xia Yang then told everyone that he had heard that there was a strange person in Xinjiang who was very familiar with the desert, known as An Liman, which means a living map in the desert. As long as they find this person, their chances of finding the Exquisite Ancient City will be greatly increased.
With the help of the government department, they soon found this Anliman, who had just taken a group of foreigners into the desert and returned alone. Unable to tell the whereabouts of the foreigners, the local police had no choice but to temporarily detain him in order to prevent international disputes.
After presenting the documents and letters of introduction of the archaeological team, and learning that they were scientific researchers from Beijing, Hu Bayi and others were able to enter the detention center and meet An Liman, who is known as the living map of the desert.
The first time they saw An Liman, this person was praying in a Muslim way, and Wang Fatzi thought he was a Uyghur, but when they asked, they learned that he was also Han.
The guards proposed that he should make meritorious service and lead the archaeological team to the desert. It's just that An Li Manli ignored them, but Hu Bayi had an idea, saying why did those camels outside look wilting and shrugging their heads?
As soon as he heard the camel, An Li was anxious in his heart, and then he spoke. When he was young, he came to the Xinjiang branch, and once encountered a sandstorm in the desert, it was the camel that saved his life, and since then, the camel has become his life, and he has been raising camels until now, and even people have become Muslims.
The guards told An Liman that as long as he was willing to lead the archaeological team into the desert, he would return all the camels to him, and Hu Bayi and others successfully put him out of the detention center.
But after coming out, the archaeological team and others asked him to lead the way, but the old man kept shaking his head: "No, no, no, it's the wind season, enter the desert, God will blame it." ”
No matter how hard they tried, the old man refused to take them into the desert, saying that he would have to wait at least two months before the wind season was over.
But Shirley Yang waited two months, and according to the notebook, the ruins of the Exquisite Ancient City could only be found during the wind season. In a hurry, she had no choice but to tell An Liman that as long as he came to be the guide of the archaeological team, she would buy all his camels at double the price, and when she came back from the desert, these camels would still be his, and the money would be his.
Seeing that the old man was still hesitating, Wang Fatzi and Hu Bayi threatened him, saying that we are personnel sent by the state to work, and the local comrades must cooperate, and if An Liman does not give us a guide, we will find the police, send you back to the detention center, and confiscate all your camels.
Under the offensive of the big stick and carrots, An Liman had no choice but to agree, and made a request: "Don't drive the car, Hu Da doesn't like machines, camels have a lot of belts, Hu Da likes camels." ”
Huda, commonly known as "Allah", is the Allah of Islam and is considered the only true Lord who created the universe and nurtured the whole world.
On this issue, Hu Bayi agrees with him, in the desert, camels are much more reliable than cars.
An Liman selected twenty camels, and on the day of departure, he loaded their equipment and supplies on the camel's back, and brought a large amount of bean cakes and salt, and the fat man helped him carry things, and at the same time learned to speak to him, and asked: "Do you eat these along the way? Isn't that the more you eat, the more thirsty you become?"
An Liman smiled and said: "Oh, my little comrade, it's okay if you want to eat it, but my camel has nothing to eat, Hu Da thinks that these should be left for the camel to eat." ”
Finally, before leaving, the old man Anliman solemnly warned them again: "Now is the wind season, and it is also the most dangerous time in the desert, do you really want to send them to death? ”
Professor Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, we are doing scientific research, how can you say that you are sending you to death." ”
An Liman spread his hands: "Scientific research, I also hope that you can come back from research." "He has dealt with the desert all his life, and he knows very well how dangerous it is to enter the desert during the wind season, and he can't stop these people who insist on sending them to death.
Then, their group of ten people officially entered the desert.
