After everyone got off the train, they arrived at the desert.
This was a desolate place, and it was still sand after removing the sand.
It was hard to imagine that thousands of years ago, there was a very grand country here that flourished.
When the group arrived, the local leaders came out one after another when they heard the news. They were all enthusiastic as if they had relatives at home.
"Aiyo, you're finally here. I heard that our foreign friends are coming. It's such an honor. We have to treat you well this time.”
These village officials were very enthusiastic and shook hands with everyone.
"Foreign friends?" Hu Ba laughed.”
Fatty Wang signaled Su Mu and Xue Li Yang with his eyes and said softly,
"Look at that woman. She looks like a foreigner.”
"We're just an archaeological team. It's a thankless task.”
When Hu Ba heard the hidden meaning in Fatty's words, he felt sour.
"Fatty, don't worry. Identity doesn't mean anything. I'm proud that I'm Chinese.”
The leader was the village chief. He led everyone to a guest house.
Su Mu took two steps back and whispered,"We're also Chinese. Don't worry, we can't mix up our nationality.”
Hu Bayi and Fatty were slightly stunned. They did not expect this guy to be able to hear them.
His hearing was extraordinary!
After everyone arrived at the guest house, Professor Chen started chatting with the village chief.
"By the way, Village Chief, have you seen my father come?”
Xue Li Yang took out a photo of her father and showed it to the village chief.
The village chief stared at the photo and quickly said,"Yes, I remember very clearly that he was here.”
Hearing the village chief's confirmation, Xue Li Yang was very excited.
Now that he was looking for his father, he finally had a frown on his face.
"What happened after that? Which direction did they go?”
"Hey!"
The village chief suddenly sighed and said helplessly,
"The last archeological team didn't listen to me. I told them not to go during the windy season, but they insisted on going. What can I do?”
"Is what you said true?" Xue Li Yang widened her eyes in disbelief.
"It's true! How can I lie to you!" Village Chief confirmed again.
Xue Li Yang finally believed him.
In the desert, if one rushed in during the windy season, it would definitely be a narrow escape!
Thinking of this, Xue Li Yang's expression suddenly became a little disappointed.
Fortunately, Su Mu held her hand and comforted her.
Professor Chen and the others didn't know what to say.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Hu Bayi quickly said,"
"By the way, village chief, can we trouble you to help us find a more experienced guide? We need this guide to lead us in archaeological work.”
The village chief hesitated for a moment and said,"
"Alright, you're an archeological team, and there are foreign friends among you. I'll find you a very good guide.”
After that, the village chief brought his men to a house.
Su Mu and Xue Li Yang looked at this barren village and felt a little emotional.
Xue Li Yang was born into a noble family and had never seen such a poor place.
"The people here seem to have a hard time living. What do they usually do?”
Xue Li Yang asked.
"When I have nothing to do, I should count the sand grains.”Fatty suddenly interrupted.
Su Mu and Xue Li Yang could not help but laugh.
"The person I want to take you to is called An Liman, nicknamed the Living Map of the Desert.”
"This person is especially godly. He has a good camel. In our village, even the children know that there are three things to bring into the desert: water, camels, and Anliman.”
"An Liman?" Fatty asked. That powerful?"
The village chief nodded and said with emotion,
"This An Liman came to the border at that time. Later, he encountered a sandstorm in the desert. Fortunately, the camel in the desert saved him. From then on, An Liman treated the camel as his life.”
"No wonder, this is what it means to have telepathy with a camel.”Hu Bayi teased.
"Yeah, I know. However..."
Village Chief suddenly looked troubled, and his tone was even more hesitant.
"Looking at your expression, it seems that this person is a little difficult to invite, right?”
Professor Chen was smart and immediately saw the expression on the village chief's face.
"Yes, I am."
" The last time the expedition team came, we wanted to invite An Liman," the village chief said with some difficulty." But he wasn't there at that time, so there was no other way."”
"Even if he is, I don't think he can be invited. This An Liman's personality is very difficult to get along with.”
Xue Li Yang started to worry again when she heard about her father.
Soon, the village chief brought his men to a house. They basically entered without knocking.
Moreover, this family did not lock the door.
It seemed that this small village was the legendary place where the doors were not closed at night.
At this moment, An Liman was still a middle-aged bachelor.
He was wearing the sackcloth that people in the desert often wore. He didn't wash it and looked a little dirty.
Moreover, he looked a little mysterious. He was holding some antiques and mumbling something.
Everyone looked at him and looked at each other.
This guy didn't look like the kind of person who controlled the desert.
