Three days later.
Everyone rested for three days to recharge their energy. After everyone had their fill in the morning, they officially set off for the desert with An Liman and the camels leading the way.
The desert was a unique feature of Xinjiang. If they were traveling or taking classic photos, it might be okay. However, when archaeological teams and tomb raiders entered the desert, they were either looking for ancient tombs in the Western Regions or ancient tombs. This was also why An Liman did not want to bring people in.
He had brought many people into the desert in the past, but in the end, other than An Liman himself, no one survived. The reason was also very intriguing.
In the past, he had led many grave robbers who had entered the desert in the name of travelers. However, they were either drowned by sandstorms or killed by poisonous snakes under the command of the demons. The fundamental reason why Annam was known as the living map of the desert was that he knew where to go and where not to go.
At the border between Xin Jiang and the desert, there was a black and white intersection. Everyone looked at the desert. It was an endless sandstorm and a cemetery that could not be seen.
"In a while, we will enter the desert. You have to follow closely. If you fall behind, there is a danger that you won't be able to return.”
He didn't know why An Liman, this old fellow, actually said such kind words. He didn't look like the cunning fox in the original novel at all.
Although the hint was heartwarming, Jiang Yuye knew that one might not be able to judge a person's heart by their appearance. Some people looked harmless on the surface, but they were actually poisonous snakes, evil incarnations that could trap you to death.
"Got it, big brother. You are more familiar with this desert, so we will definitely listen to your commands.”
Professor Chen's age was definitely second to none in the archeological team. To be able to be called 'old brother', An Liman was considered to have gained a lot of face.
Professor Hao and the group of archaeology students nodded in agreement like chickens pecking at rice.
They all followed Professor Chen's lead. Besides, An Liman was known as the living map of the desert. This kind of person was the most important person in this trip, so it was fine to suck up to him a little.
"Alright, you guys follow me for a while. We'll ride camels when we enter the no man's land.”
An Liman waved his hand. Three days was enough for them to prepare a lot of things. They had to prepare a large pancake that was very durable, an excessive amount of drinking water, and his own brewed horse milk wine.
He had lived for so many years and was like a fish in water in the desert. Other than being well-prepared, he knew the desert like the back of his hand.
"Hey, Old Hu, this guy isn't from Xinjiang. Why does he sound like he's talking about kebabs?”
An Liman led the camel into the desert while Fatty walked with Old Hu. He reached out to touch Old Hu and started talking.
Back when he was in the local police station in Xin Jiang, he had already found An Liman eyesore. This guy was clearly not a local, but he had the smell of kebabs. He did not know where he learned it from.
"Cut it out. Once we enter the desert, we will have to rely on him. If we can avoid offending this person, we should not. Otherwise, if he is really left in the desert, then the gains will not make up for the losses.”
On the other hand, Old Hu was calm. In fact, in the original novel, he was the only one who had a good attitude towards An Liman. Otherwise, this guy would have been beaten up by Fatty a long time ago.
The two of them chatted casually while Jiang Yuye and Xue Li Yang walked side by side behind them.
Xue Li Yang also let go of the burden in her heart and opened her heart. She smiled at Jiang Yuye and said,""We're about to enter the desert. If anything happens, we'll have to rely on you.”
"I'll definitely save those who need to be saved. If someone wants to die, I can't stop them.”Jiang Yuye sneered.
Many people in the archeological team were brainless. They only knew how to do archeology. They didn't know that there was only one life. If it was gone, it was really gone. If they didn't cherish it, they couldn't blame others.
