The next journey was plain and arrived at the fairy city. Anyi met the rest of the archaeological team, all of whom were students led by Professor Chen, Ma Bin with a simple appearance, Qin Xueming with a tall figure, Wu Meng with a strong figure, and a female student Ye Yixin.

In addition to An Yi and others, a total of eight people arrived in Xinjiang. On the way, An Yi knew that Wu Meng was actually a retired special forces soldier with rich experience in survival in the wild. I wonder how they pulled him in.

What surprised An Yi the most was that they actually prepared guns in their equipment, which made An Yi have deeper doubts about Chen Jie's identity: Where can ordinary people get guns? But he didn't say anything, and followed quietly behind the team, looking like "I'm a little transparent".

Seeing Wu Meng contacting a comrade-in-arms who was in the army before, and then through his friend, he found an old man who was in the livestock business as a guide.

The old man's name is "** Alamul", but no one calls his name anymore. People call him "Anliman", which means a living map in the desert.

Now is the best season to enter the desert. The wind and sand are small, the temperature is low, and the water consumed is only 1/4 of that in spring and summer. So the old man An Liman agreed very happily. He has his own camel caravan, so he doesn't have to hire camel caravan anymore.

Camels, known as desert boats, are not only an animal with carrying capacity, but also many skills left by ancient ancestors. They can avoid natural threats such as desert storms and quicksands, or they can carry weights under the scorching sun without eating or drinking. The wide and plump soles of feet have a large area of ​​focus and will not easily fall into the sand. The old and experienced camels will lead their owners to find water in the vast sand. At night, the alert camels can also act as sentinels, reminding their owners when wolves and other beasts attack in the dark.

After a few days of rest, the "Pure Yang Sword" returned to An Yi's hands again.

On the day of departure, the old man An Liman selected twenty camels, brought several large buckets of water, dozens of naan and other equipment and supplies, and brought a large amount of bean cakes and salt.

Qin Xueming was very curious and asked while helping him move things: "Old man, can we eat bean cakes and salt in the desert? Isn't this the more I eat, the more thirsty you become?"

The old man An Liman laughed: "Oh, you can eat this, but Hu Da thinks that should be left to the camel for food."

The conversation did not continue. After the supplies were loaded, everyone began to set off.

In An Yi's opinion, this team of nine people is not so much an archaeological team, but rather an ancient camel team. The amount of food carried is enough to last less than a month, and the water is enough to be used for more than ten days. In several oasis and underground rivers halfway, you can also replenish food water. In addition, there are several large leather pocket yogurt soup. When you can't stand it, you can quench your thirst by taking a sip and quench your thirst. In addition, the various equipment of the expedition team make the weight of each camel. When you are walking, the personnel can only walk halfway with their legs and ride the camel halfway.

Naturally, I am not afraid of walking comfortably. It seems very easy to walk while practicing. However, he has prepared a lot of water and food in the space, and it is almost filled. You should know that since the break through the Qi training period, the space of the Tianshu has doubled, reaching twenty-four meters. Even as his cultivation is still growing slowly, there is so much food that he has been eating alone for a year and a half, which is enough to see that he is really hungry in the previous world, but there is no time to flow in this Tianshu space, and he is not afraid of the food being expired and deteriorated.

Walking along the way, An Yi and others' first route was to start southwest from Bosten Lake and walk west along the Peacock River until they found the ancient river channel to the south. Bosten can be translated as standing. The origin of this name is because there are three mountains in the middle of the lake standing in the lake. In ancient times, this lake was also called the sea of ​​fish, and it is the largest inland freshwater torrent lake in China. The Peacock River originated from here and flowed to the depths of Taklamakan. When An Yi passed by the lake, looking around, the vast and far-reaching blue lake water is dazzling, and inadvertently, it creates an illusion that it seems to have reached the end of the world.

Two days after leaving, Xu Hui and several other students were in high spirits. They were all very young. This was the first time in their lives that they entered the desert. They thought it was both fresh and fun. Sometimes they learned the whistle of the old man An Liman commanding the camel, and sometimes they chased each other and sang.

Although An Yi was the first time he came to the desert, he had good qi cultivation skills, so he was not so disobedient. However, he was also looking around and enjoying the scenery of the desert.

According to the words of Old Man An Liman, this section of the Peacock River was not considered a desert at all. This ancient river channel of the Peacock River existed before the river was diverted. The riverbeds in some areas were not completely dried up, and the sand was also shallow. There were scattered small lakes and seas everywhere. Occasionally, a small group of red-billed gulls and red-billed ducks swimming on the water surface. Along the bend of the Peacock River, there were small oasis with sand dates, poplar euphrats and some shrubs growing.

After crossing this bend, even if you really enter the desert, the Peacock River diverts its route to the southeast, towards the other side of Loulan, Lop Nur, and Danya. We are heading southwest and entering the "Black Desert". Old man Anliman said that the Black Desert was produced by Hu Da (Allah, Allah) punishing the greedy pagans. Countless cities and treasures are buried in the desert, but no one can bring them out from the Black Desert. Even if you only take one gold coin, you will lose your path in the Black Desert and be buried in it by the wind and sand. You will never think of it again.

This is a large liquid desert. The wind blows the sand dunes, and the landforms are different every day without any characteristics. The ancient river channel has long disappeared. Thanks to An Liman, the castles, houses, towers that were buried by the yellow sand and only exposed half of the roof are blown into tilt by the strong wind and are at an angle of 30 degrees to the ground. Several small saxacums in the desert (plant names) cannot escape the eyes of the old man An Liman. These things are connected and they are formed into a line. It tells people that the ancient river channel of the Peacock River once passed by here. At the end of this disappeared ancient river channel is the legendary Jingjue Ancient City abandoned by Hu Da.

What impressed people the most in the desert are those thousand-year-old poplars. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, who would have believed that there were trees in the desert. Each tree was towards a vigorous flying dragon, and all the branches stretched crookedly to the east, as if this dragon was running in the desert. In such a harsh environment, it had been alive for thousands of years and had already died. The trunk was blown by the wind and sand and almost flattened to the ground, but it still did not fall.

At night, everyone buried the carbon in the sand, and people slept on the sand. It was still cold when they just lay down. When they woke up in the morning, there were frost on their eyebrows, but their backs were covered with sweat.

The first ray of sunshine in the morning rose from the horizon in the east, reflecting the clouds in the horizon red. The sand dunes in the desert were shrouded in a layer of rays of rays. The dry poplar and rippling yellow sand were reflected in golden red, and the thick colors formed a magnificent picture between the sky and the earth.

Not long after walking, it started to snow in the sky. The snowflakes were very big and fell on the golden sand. Before they could melt, they were covered with another layer. Slowly, a white quilt was covered with a white quilt. Under the sun, some places began to melt. From a distance, there were occasionally a few spots of yellow sand dunes exposed in the vast white area, golden sand, white snow blankets and the blue sky shining together.

Everyone was so excited when they saw this kind of scenery. Ye Yixin, the student, exclaimed: "The desert is so beautiful, extremely quiet, it is completely another world, without any disputes or falsehood, so that people can let go of all their guards and return to the most natural and relaxed state. Oh my God, you see that it is a double rainbow!" She screamed in surprise, took out her camera, pressed the shutter, hoping to keep this beautiful scenery.

An Yi looked along his eyes and saw two rainbows hanging high in the sky, beautiful, and even he felt a little intoxicated.

At this moment, An Yi suddenly noticed that the old man An Liman stared at the Chaoyang in the east and was in a daze. A hint of uneasiness appeared on his face. An Yi walked over and asked, "Old man, what's wrong? Is the sky going to change?" Chaoxia did not go out, and the sunset traveled thousands of miles. I believe every Chinese knows that the fiery clouds in the morning are not easy to take a look.

The old man An Liman nodded and said after a while: "Yes, the clouds in the sky are bleeding. Hu Da, maybe he is angry. The desert is about to blow the wind again."

An Yi smiled and said, "This old Hu family has a bad temper and gets angry at all times."

The old man An Liman was so angry that his goatee blew up: "Why is Hu Da's surname Hu? You said that Hu Da is going to be angry. Tonight, there will be a big wind in the black desert. We can't delay, so we can move forward quickly."

This is the sixth day of the archaeological team's departure and the fourth day of entering the Black Desert. In front of them are the ruins of Xiye Ancient City. According to An Liman Lao Khan, the storm will be very big this time and it will not be stopped even if a sand wall is built. If they do not arrive at the ruins of Xiye City, they will be buried alive in the desert.

It is still half a day away from the ruins of Xiye Ancient City, but I am afraid that if something happens on the road, it will be really troublesome.

An Yi jumped on the camel's back and wanted to greet everyone to leave quickly, but saw the old man An Liman slowly coming down from the camel, taking out a blanket, spread it slowly on the yellow sand, kneeling on it, closing his eyes slightly, looking pious, opening his hands to the sky, then covering his face, and chanting loudly: "Alahu."

This is his prayer to Allah, and he must do his homework every morning.

Seeing that he was so calm, An Yi thought that it was not too serious that he said a big storm would happen at night. He thought that it was not the wind season now, so there shouldn't be too big storm. So he relaxed and went to watch the beautiful scenery of the desert with the rest.
