After coming down from the Kunlun Snow Mountain.
After resting for a day, they hurriedly boarded the train to Xinjiang.
After a while, they finally arrived at a small town northwest of Bosten Lake and prepared to enter the desert from there.
Since Professor Chen had already arranged all the departments before they left, the mayor of the town rushed over not long after they arrived.
"Professor Chen, I've been looking forward to seeing you all.”
The mayor held Professor Chen's hands excitedly and continued,"Regarding your situation, the higher-ups have already told me about it. We will definitely cooperate fully with your archaeological operation this time.”
This kind of courtesy was really unavoidable.
After Professor Chen and the mayor had a conversation, they finally got back to the main topic.
"Comrade Mayor, we need a very experienced guide to enter the desert. I wonder if you've arranged it for us?" Professor Chen asked.”
"This…"
The mayor looked at Professor Chen awkwardly and said embarrassedly,""Professor Chen, this isn't easy to handle.”
As soon as he said this.
Everyone immediately rolled their eyes.
He had just said that he would cooperate fully. If the first thing was difficult, then how could he talk about the rest?
Professor Chen also saw the troubled look on his face and asked in confusion,"Comrade mayor, finding a guide should be a common thing, right? Why do you look so embarrassed?”
"Hey!"
Zhen sighed and shook his head helplessly. He explained,"You might not know this, but we call the place you are going to the Black Desert. Every year, there would be quite a number of exploration teams that would head to that place. However, after so many years, I have yet to see anyone come out alive.”
"The people here all say that the Black Desert will swallow people, so even if I want to arrange it for you, it's really difficult.”
Hearing this, everyone nodded in understanding.
They had more or less heard that the people of this western city had a kind of reverence for the desert, believing that there were many gods and things like that.
As for those who entered the desert to explore, they all thought that they had offended the gods, which was why they could not come out.
Fatty Wang, who was beside Qin Yu, tugged at Qin Yu's sleeve and asked with a puzzled expression,""Godfather Qin! This desert was a desert. What did it mean by swallowing people?”
Without waiting for Qin Yu to speak, Hu Bayi explained,""The danger in the desert is not small. If you're not careful, you might get lost. If you don't have enough water to support you, you'll soon be dried meat.”
" Not to mention the quicksand, sandstorms, poisonous snakes, and scorpions. You might lose your life at any time.”
"That's right!"
The mayor looked at Hu Bayi in surprise and praised,""This comrade is right. I think you must have passed through the desert in the past.”
Huba smiled and nodded.
He had experience in the desert when he was in the army.
However, they were moving in groups, and the desert they entered wasn't deep, so it wasn't that dangerous.
At this moment.
Qin Yu saw that it was getting late and wanted to solve the problem of the guide as soon as possible.
So he took a few steps forward and went straight to the point."Do you have someone called An Liman here? If you do, ask him to be your guide.”
An Liman?
Who was this person?
Everyone looked at Qin Yu with a puzzled expression, hoping to get an answer from him.
But the mayor was different.
He looked at Qin Yu in surprise and said in disbelief,"Has this little brother been here before? How did he know about An Liman?”
Qin Yu shook his head.
He quickly came up with an excuse and explained,"A friend who had been to the desert before introduced him. He said that he was a good guide and was said to be a living map of the desert.”
"Your friend is right!"
The mayor nodded with certainty and continued,""But this guy isn't a good person. This year, he brought several exploration teams in, but only he came out alone. We now suspect that he murdered the members of the exploration team and are now holding him in the police station!”
"Ah?"
"She's harming people. We can't have such a person!”
"That's right. We can't entrust everyone's safety to such a person.”
As soon as the mayor finished speaking, it immediately caused a huge reaction in the team. It seemed that most of the people in the archaeological team were somewhat resistant to this kind of person.
Facing the heated discussion, Qin Yu said coldly,"Don't think too much about it. This time, he's the guide.”
Qin Yu had never been to a desert before.
However, he had watched many television programs in his previous life and knew the dangers hidden in the desert.
Even if he had the system, he could not guarantee that he would be able to survive safely in the desert.
He knew about An Liman.
His understanding of the desert could be said to be as familiar as his own home. It was just that there was a little problem with his character.
This was a small problem.
Qin Yu had plenty of ways to teach him.
Professor Chen saw how insistent Qin Yu was, so he said,"Comrade Mayor, since Comrade Little Qin has made such a request, he must have his reasons. Then please help us meet this comrade An Liman.”
