The Scratch System of Adventures of the Heavens

The blizzard stopped, and Beichen and his archaeological team were sent to the station by troops, going round and round along the way, reversing and reversing.

Finally, two days later, Beichen came to the nearest town in Taklamakan in a military vehicle, which was also the city where An Liman, the living map of the desert, was located.

Coincidentally, this old man was caught in the prison before Beichen and the others arrived, and he still couldn't escape the prison!
It took Hu Bayi and Professor Chen a lot of time to get this guy out of the trap, but this guy is like an old man, ignoring Professor Chen's kindness at all, just feeding him camel.

Seeing this, Beichen said, "Old man, in a word, can you get in? If you don't, I guarantee you won't be able to see your camel tomorrow."

When An Liman heard Beichen's words, he immediately said in a hurry: "Hey, young man, don't be so irritable. Why do you say that if I don't go, I won't see my camel? I don't like to hear you say that, you know ?"

Seeing this, Beichen said: "Believe it or not, anyway, if you don't make a decision this afternoon, I can't guarantee what will happen to your camel tomorrow. You can bet, I won't lose anyway."

When An Liman heard that Beichen's words didn't seem like a joke, he didn't dare to bet whether Beichen would dare to do such a thing, so his tone relaxed, and said: "Mr. Chen, you are a scholar, you can't use violence. Solve the problem, right? It’s not that I don’t want to take you in, but that entering the desert now is death, you know? It’s the wind season, after the wind season is over, you can enter whenever you want, okay?”

Chen Jiuren heard the words and said guiltily: "Mr. An Liman, I don't want to, but our archaeological work can only be carried out during the windy season, otherwise we won't be able to find a place."

Seeing that An Liman couldn't move, he was still bored for a while to feed his camels. After a long time, under Beichen's gaze, An Liman said: "It's not impossible to take you in now, but you can't keep your ugly words." In the front, if there is a storm after entering, I will not care about you, and..."

An Liman made a gesture asking for money, and said: "You haven't given me the money yet. Take ten thousand steps back and say, I don't need money, but my camel can't do it. If you don't have money, you can't buy things. You can't buy things. My camels can’t get enough to eat, and if they don’t get enough to eat, they can’t enter the desert, you know what I mean?”

At this point, Yang Xueli finally understood what he meant, and then said: "Okay, Mr. An Liman. How about this, I will buy all your camels at double the price. We will also prepare enough supplies for you. , I will give you the money as usual, and these camels are also yours, what do you think?"

An Liman heard such a good thing, so he turned to look at Yang Xueli, and said: "Give me the money when you come back, the camel is still mine?"

"Yes, it's all yours." Yang Xueli affirmed.

An Liman glanced at Beichen first, and then said: "Well, although God will blame us for entering the desert now, but... God will turn a blind eye sometimes..."

"Okay, let's go tomorrow, and we will prepare supplies tonight." Seeing that An Liman finally agreed to go to the desert, Yang Xueli decisively arranged everything.

Chen Jiuren finally breathed a sigh of relief, and followed Professor Hao back to the guest house to rest. The young people were responsible for the supplies, and they were not needed.

That night, Beichen took Xiao Zhao to visit this desert town. The town is not big, but it still has everything that should be there. The whole set of anti-wind and sand equipment, but Beichen doesn't like this kind of thing, just put on a windbreaker casually, just like the little brother in "Tomb Raider Notes", it's pretty good, and it's not enough to add a mask, so many things what?

But Xiao Zhao was not unhappy, and instead asked Beichen to help her choose clothes for going into the desert. Although the market was huge, there were very few styles of clothes. Apart from the basic sand-proof windbreaker, there were only leather clothes, but Xiao Zhao is just a clothes rack, and she looks heroic in a set of leather jacket and leather pants. With a cowboy hat, it's perfect!
Beichen is free here, but the students who followed are suffering. The sacks of bean cakes and fodder are enough for them to move overnight. They also need to be equipped with enough drinking water, dry food, archaeological equipment, etc. Wait, they've had a busy night.

The next day, Beichen and Xiaozhao appeared at the meeting point in good spirits. Apart from a few old men, even Hu Bayi and Yang Xueli had dark circles under their eyes, obviously they had been busy all night.

When setting off, the fat man showed off the gun he borrowed from the bureau in front of An Liman. The meaning was very clear, that is, if you dare to run away, he will shoot!
An Li looked helpless, and then led the team on a camel.

He just entered the desert, and An Liman would stop to feed his camels whenever he walked for a certain distance. No matter what others were like, he really cared for his camels, what a human and animal... Humph!
After only one day of walking, everyone was tired of the scenery in the desert. The desert was the same as the snowy area, but with a different color tone. After crossing a sand dune again, An Liman stopped again.

Fatty saw this for a while, and turned to Hu Bayao: "This An Liman did it on purpose, can he do it?"

Hu Bayi grabbed the fat man, and said: "This An Liman is really something, you just sleep on the camel along the way, but I have observed him, the ruins along the way and Populus euphratica Trees and even a Haloxylon plant can’t escape his eyes, these inconspicuous things are connected into a line, that’s the route! It seems that his reputation as a live map of the desert is really not for nothing.”

Bei Chen didn't know if the old man was really that amazing, let's just say he was.

This trip started from Bosten Lake and walked southward along the ancient channel of the Kongque River. It took only one day to walk, and it was not even considered a real desert, because Beichen could feel the water vapor under the desert. The desert, which has no water vapor at all...

The next day, everyone stopped at a place called Mount of the Holy Sepulchre to take a rest. Yang Xueli took pictures everywhere like a person who had never seen the world. Of course, this may be related to her occupation, she is still a country What about the reporter for Geographic Magazine?

And here, Beichen also noticed that this group of students are really not afraid of death. They have all entered the desert, they have to wash their hands after eating, and they need to use water for everything, especially that Xiaoye, who uses the most serious water, and just left. In two days, the real desert has not yet arrived, and most of the water has been consumed.

An Liman looked at the behavior of these students and did not stop them, or he was powerless to stop them. In his thinking, as long as there was no water, they would retreat.

However, Hu Bayi walked over and asked: "Master, this is the situation. I didn't expect these students to waste water so much. You are familiar with the desert, so you must know where there is water, right?"

An Liman shrugged, and said: "I know, there is a bend in the river ahead, where you can replenish water, but this is also the last water replenishment point. I also know why you went to Jingjue Ancient City. It is said that there is There are countless gold and silver treasures, but no one has ever really found them. Do you think we walked in the real desert before? Let me tell you, the real desert has no supply points at all, just at the rate of consumption like you , You are going to be trapped in the black desert before you find the ancient city of Jingjue. Listen to the old man’s advice and go back.”

Chen Jiuren heard the words and said: "Brother, you can't say that. We didn't go to the ancient city of Jingjue for gold and silver treasures. We went for the hope that the lost country could see the light of day again. Now we are also aware of the problem of consumption. , and then we will try to reduce unnecessary waste.”

Seeing that he couldn't persuade the archaeological team, An Liman shook his head, leaned on the camel, closed his eyes and rested.

Seeing this, Yang Xueli said, "Master Beichen, what do you think?"

"What do I think? Let me look at the hammer. With your consumption rate, it is exactly the same as what An Liman said, let alone in any special circumstances. I, Kara, you take These students came to take them to death."

Bei Chen is merciless when he hits people, especially those students who are really naive and not afraid of death. It can be said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

The students were so ashamed by what Beichen said, they didn't dare to speak in the end, and leaned against the camel to rest sullenly.

After resting enough, An Liman looked at Hu Bayi and sighed, and then led the team to the next water supply point, which was also the dividing line into the Black Desert.

In the evening, the archaeological team who made up the water formed a circle and apologized to each other. The sincerity of their attitude almost moved Beichen, but Beichen still gave them a blank look, apologizing as soon as he apologized, but you did it with practical actions, don’t think Beichen didn't see that you were still wasting water, but you were more restrained than before.

The next day, An Liman looked at the Haloxylon grass behind him, and said, "Friends, welcome to hell! Next, it depends on God's will..."

However, God's Will didn't seem to be on the side of the archaeological team. Just after entering the black desert, there was a breeze in the distance, and the sky darkened. There was even a blood-red "sunset glow" in the distance!
Just kidding, that's not a sunset glow, but a sign of the coming of a black sandstorm, because it's not long before dawn at this time!

Seeing this, An Liman frowned. Those students who didn't know why saw such a magnificent "sunset glow", danced with excitement, and even took out their cameras to take pictures.

Seeing this, Bei Chen said, "Old man, lead the way, this black sandstorm is coming!"

An Liman nodded, and then took the lead to move in one direction at a high speed. Beichen and Xiao Zhao immediately followed. Hu Bayi knew that the situation was urgent, so he quickly organized the students to follow. Only then did these students realize the seriousness of the matter .
