The next day, in the morning, I took the plane to Hotan Airport, arrived at Hotan Airport at 1 pm, and checked into the hotel and opened an hourly room.

I haven't signed in today. I took out my phone and opened the APP. I can check in today. Click to check in. A box pops up. If you sign in successfully, you will get a reward. A bottle of Pepsi 2L large bottle of Coke. It has been stored in the inventory. Please withdraw it yourself.

It is not extracted now. It is extracted when there is extremely water shortage in the desert.

When you go to the desert, you cannot drive into the desert because the wheels are prone to sink into soft sand. The sand is flowing. The more you want the car to drive out of the sand pit, the deeper the tires are. Zhou Yang can only hike into the desert. The backpack space is limited and the load is limited, so he can't carry too much water. In the desert, due to the heat, the body will lose a lot of water. If you don't replenish water, you will soon face a bad situation, dehydration and death.

Therefore, 2L Coke is found in the inventory and does not need to be carried on. It is extracted when there is extreme water shortage. Coke not only replenishes moisture, but also replenishes sugar, which is energy.

I slept for three hours and kept my energy strong. At 5 pm, I checked out and bought a 2-hand motorcycle. I spent 1,200 yuan, filled up the fuel, and started to set off. In 10 minutes, I drove onto Provincial Highway S210 for about 15 minutes, and drove onto National Highway G580 at the desert observation deck.

National Highway G580 crosses the Tarim Basin along the Hotan River and is a highway in the desert.

The motorcycle drove all the way. After 2 hours, he stopped the motorcycle, took out his mobile phone, opened the APP, inventory, and clicked to view the treasure map. The motorcycle continued to drive for about 10 kilometers, then drove off the road and into the vast desert. The motorcycle rushed in the desert and quickly couldn't drive. The sand was too soft.

I discarded the motorcycle and looked at the time. It was still dawn at 9 pm and Xingjiang at 9 pm. However, the sun was about to set. Zhou Yang tightened his backpack and set out towards the location of the treasure map. At about 9:30, the sun set and it was dark. I continued to move forward. After walking for more than 2 hours, there were moonlight and starlight in the night sky, illuminating the desert.

Walking around the stars and the moon, hiking at night.

I looked at my phone and it was almost 12 o'clock and I could sign in again soon.

After more than ten minutes, after 12 o'clock, I took out my phone and opened the APP. I can sign in today. Click to sign in, and a box pops up. The sign in is successful and I will get the sign in reward. Qinglan 2L large bottle of water.

Signed in water again.

Zhou Yang rested on a sand dune, drank some water, and ate some jerky. After resting for a while, he continued to move.

In the morning, I walked 70 kilometers in the desert.

The average walking 7.3 kilometers per hour is 7.3 kilometers per hour. In the morning, the sun is not strong, so it is easy to rush. Until 10 am, I found that there were a few wind-invading rocks ahead. I speeded up and reached the wind-invading rocks and gained shade under the wind-invading rocks. At this time, the sun was exposed to the sun.

Zhou Yang slept in the shade until the evening, woke up, regained his energy, replenished his moisture, ate some peanuts, chocolate, beef jerky, and started to set off.

When I walked to 11:30 pm, I found a small mound of earth in front of me with the moonlight and starlight. When I walked in, I saw a mummy corpse. Looking at the costume, I was a Western explorer from the early to the middle of the 20th century.

As mentioned earlier, there is a line above the basin and a line below. These two lines are the channels for the exchange between the East and the West in ancient times, as well as the Silk Road on the Land.

On the Silk Road, in addition to exporting a large amount of silk, China also exports iron, nickel, precious metals, lacquerware, etc., as well as China's cash crops apricots, peaches and sugarcane. The items imported from the West through the Silk Road are also very rich, including wool fabrics, glass, gems, spices, etc., and especially blood horses imported from Dayuan. Crops and economic plants in Central Asia, such as grapes, alfalfa, were also transmitted to China through the Silk Road.

Caravans frequently traveled.

When the caravan passes through the desert, it is not smooth sailing. Either encounters a black storm in the desert, encounters a sand bandit, or dies of thirst in the desert, or otherwise, many people have died from ancient times to the present. The dead people are soon dried by the hot sun and become mummies, which will not corrupt. Mummies can be preserved for thousands or even thousands of years.

In addition, there are few wild animals in the sand sea and will not destroy corpses. Therefore, in this desert, there are more mummies like cow dung on the grassland.

The wind blows out a mummy from thousands of years ago from the sand, don't make a fuss.

Faxian records in "Records of the Buddha's Kingdom" that there are many hot winds and evil ghosts in the sand river. When they encounter them, they all die, and there are no ones who have all. There are no birds above and no beasts below. They look everywhere and look at them. If they want to cross, they will not know why. Only the dead bones are used as marks.

Zhou Yang used the hand guard in his hand, a dry poplar wood to turn the mummy over, and searched in his pocket with his hand guard, and found a notebook, a compass, and a pistol. This pistol model, the Austro-Hungarian Empire Ross-Styre M1907 pistol, with a diameter of 8mm, weighing 1.03kg, a magazine capacity of 10 rounds, and an effective range of 30 meters.

Zhou Yang sat on the sand dune next to him to rest, drank some water, and ate some jerky beef. He took out his notebook to read.

The text on the notebook is in English, and Zhou Yang reads the contents of the notebook.

The man's name is Carl Klein, an Englishman, an explorer. In 1939, he crossed the Pamir Plateau from India and entered the Xingjiang land of China for an adventure.

To put it bluntly, the so-called adventure is to steal cultural relics from Xingjiang.

In the Han and Tang Dynasties, civilization in the Western Regions was extremely prosperous.

Due to its special geographical, climatic conditions and cultural environment, this place is one of the best preserved areas in my country and even the world.

As early as the late 19th and early 20th centuries, explorers from all over the world flocked to Xingjiang, digging archaeological excavations, and stolen ancient cultural relics in a crazily manner.

Starting from the discovery of the ancient city of Loulan in the Rob Desert in 1900, before the founding of New China, Xingjiang's "archaeological" activities were basically monopolized by a group of foreign explorers. During this period, the most cultural relics were stolen, including Swedish Swedish, Stein of the United Kingdom, Pelchhe of France, Glenwiddle and Lekirk of Germany, Clermonds and Oldenburg of Russia, and Oguri's Oguri Expedition Team of Japan. This is the tragedy of cultural relics in the Western Regions.
