Chapter 357: He is a mysterious man.

The moment the door was pushed open, Chen Hao knew that someone had come in, but he was too lazy to pay attention to it, so he simply closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

Hao Aiguo squeezed out a smile that was even worse than crying, and he woke Chen Hao up: "Captain, this is the case. We want to discuss the route with you. Please come with me..."

Chen Hao opened his eyes and looked at him. Without saying a word, he put on his clothes and followed Hao Aiguo to another private room.

Xueli and Professor Chen were looking at the map. When they saw Chen Hao coming, they quickly invited him to take their seats. Xueli also poured him a cup of tea himself.

Professor Chen smiled and said, "We will go to Xi'an tomorrow. We have to pick up my students and all the staff will be there. In addition, this is the route we have set to the desert before. Xiao Chen, you are the captain, see if there is any problem?"

Sydney also smiled and said, "Yes, Captain. Also, this is our equipment list. Please see if we need to add any equipment. Just say, I will call the people there to purchase immediately."

Chen Hao looked at the map and found that it was exactly the same as what they had made before, without any changes. He nodded and said there was no problem.

He took the equipment list of Sydney and looked at it. He found that it was fully equipped and there was nothing short of anything. It was just that the camel got the small town on the desert border and then went to buy it, and then he had to find a guide.

As for the black donkey hooves and glutinous rice, it is better not to bring them, so as not to make Professor Chen and others doubt their identity and motivation. There are fewer rice dumplings in the desert, so you just need to bring more drinking water.

"No problem, just follow this route. As for the camel and the guide, we will decide when we get to the place." Chen Hao said.

Professor Chen and others nodded. After everyone discussed other details, they went back to the carriage to rest.

A day later, everyone came to Xi'an Station and received several students from Professor Chen, two men and one woman, the ordinary-looking Sadimen, the big Chu Feng, and a girl Ye Yixin.

Now all the members of the archaeological team have gathered together, and the previous 5 people have a total of 9 people.

After arriving at the desert border, Hu Bayi contacted a comrade here and took them to find a local town with camels and desert guides.

The old man who rented camels was named "An Liman", which is his nickname, meaning the map of the desert. No one knows his real name anymore, but in short, everyone calls it that.

An Li was holding a dry tobacco pipe in his arms. When he heard that everyone was going to go deep into the desert, he shook his head constantly: "No, no, it's Fengshi now. When the Fengshi enters the desert, Hu Da will blame him!"

When Chen Hao saw the old man's style of speaking and doing things, he knew that he was an old man. He knew that such a person was hard or soft. He directly gave Professor Chen a wink and asked him to show the red-headed documents, so that An Liman knew that they were official personnel.

And scare him, if he doesn't cooperate, his donkey and camel will be confiscated and he will be forbidden from doing business in the future.

Sydney gave a double reward, not only bought 20 camels, but also promised to return the camels to him after he came back.

After soft and hard work, An Liman couldn't stand it anymore, so he nodded and agreed to take everyone into the depths of the desert.

After negotiating the deal, everyone quickly moved the equipment and supplies from Bosten Lake here, packed up the equipment, and set off today.

An Liman brought a lot of bean cakes and salt. The fat man asked, "Old man, are we eating these things along the way? Isn't this the more we eat, the thirsty?"

An Li smiled and said, "Oh, my Ulianjiang (strong friend). As for this, you can eat it if you want to eat it, but Hu Da believes that more of these things should be given to camels."

An Liman told everyone that it is the wind season of the desert now, and it is very dangerous to enter the desert at this time. The road ahead is easy to walk, and you can also move forward according to the ruins of the Peacock River, so you don’t have to worry about getting lost or encountering any danger.

But when we reach the depths of the desert, the Peacock River is completely buried by yellow sand, and there is no trace of it. At that time, it will encounter sandstorms. Whether it can come out alive depends on the arrangements of Hu Dahe.

Moreover, the food and water that their medium-sized camel fleet can sustain them to live in the desert for up to a month. If they don’t come out for a month, they may die of thirst.

Chen Hao understood that An Liman was not sensational, but the environment was so harsh. He had been to the desert and understood how dangerous it was. He could last for a few days without food, and he might not be able to hold on for two days without water.

In the afternoon, the camel caravan set out to the Taklamakan Desert. The first section of the road starts from the southwest of Lake Bosten and enters the Gobi in two hours.

The vast Gobi Desert style makes people linger. Everyone seems excited and thinks that the scenery of the desert is so beautiful. While driving camels to chase and fight each other, they learn the tone of the old man An Liman speaking, which feels very fun.

Hu Bayi and others also wanted to integrate into the atmosphere of the archaeological team, but as the captain and deputy captain of the team, they naturally had to maintain a serious and serious manner, try to straighten their backs and maintain their majestic and resolute figure...

According to An Liman, this section of the road is just the outskirts of the desert, and there are a few villages and a large number of wild animals around it, which is not considered a desert at all.

After walking southwest along the Peacock River for two days, even if you enter the real desert, the strong wind will not open your eyes, and sandstorms will cover the sky and the sun, and some will suffer.

After walking around the desert for a day, everyone found a place where many poplars grew around, camped and rested for a night.

After all, people and camels have limited energy. After walking for a day, they don’t have a rest. When they enter the depths of the desert, they will have no place to rest.

For dinner, I bought a barbecue Jiamo from a small town. After putting it in the pot and cooking it for a while, the aroma of meat and pasta came out. This is a special snack on the desert border.

Everyone was not used to eating this kind of thing, and they couldn't tell whether it was delicious or not. After eating one, they felt full and then went back to the camp to rest.

No words all night.

The next morning at 7:00, Chen Hao got up and woke everyone up. After eating noodles, he hurriedly set off for a journey.

In order to distinguish the direction of the Peacock River and guide everyone, Chen Hao drove the golden eagle to fly in the air, leading the way for the camel caravan below, which was much faster than before.
