Siheyuan: Starting with Damo Neighbors

"The sun is too poisonous now, let's rest for a while. You drink some water, and we will leave when you have rested." Old Hu said.

"Oh, don't worry about me, I can hold on, I can go when I have to, ah." Professor Chen is not convinced at all.

In other words, in order to find the ancient city of Jingjue, he may even sacrifice his own life.

"According to your many years of experience, do foreigners come to us to rob tombs?" Lao Hu asked curiously.

"A lot, a lot."

"Especially in the past, the situation in our government was unstable, and there were many years of wars and strife. Many tomb robbers from imperialist countries took advantage of the situation."

"Let's just talk about the Western Regions. Because the natural conditions here are harsh and there are few people. This has become a paradise for those tomb robbers."

"The ancient tombs and relics in Xijiang were looted on the largest scale before World War II."

"Loulan in the east of the Taklamakan, Niya in the south, and Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang. Many cultural relics have been looted."

"Many relics have been devastated." Professor Chen said with a distressed face.

Those are treasures left by the ancestors to the people.

All were stolen by those shameless foreigners.

"The owner of Miss Yang's notebook also came from Yingguo to Xijiang at that time, right?" Lao Hu looked at Xueli Yang who was flipping through the notebook.

"Little Hu! Let me tell you this. At that time, all foreigners said they were explorers!"

"But in fact, they all came here for our cultural relics! You think, the journey is so far away, the traffic is so inconvenient, and you are risking your life, what are you doing here?"

"Then what are those people who support them behind the scenes?" Professor Hao said angrily.

Professor Chen patted his student.

"The situation you mentioned does exist, but there are still real explorers." Professor Chen said.

Although, explorers are mostly for profit.

But you can't overturn a boat of people with one shot, there are still pure people.

After speaking, Professor Chen looked at Lao Hu.

"Little Hu, I have been engaged in archaeology for half my life, and I have also spent half my life fighting against tomb robbers."

"Although I am not fighting them face to face, I am fighting against them every day."

"This archaeology and tomb robbery are like a battlefield without gunpowder smoke. We excavate, research, and protect, while they steal, destroy, and resell."

"To them, we hate them!" Professor Chen said with hatred.

It can be seen that he really hates tomb robbers.

"It doesn't sound different to me." The fat man who was sitting back to back with Lao Hu muttered.

Fortunately, the sound was not loud, and the archaeological team did not hear it.

Wang Xuewen raised his foot and kicked the fat man...  

Why are you so open-mouthed?

After being kicked by Wang Xuewen, the fat man shut up.

In fact, Fatty also knew that he shouldn't have said what he just said.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to just whisper.

But when Professor Chen kept talking about tomb robbers, Fatty was upset.

After all, they are also considered tomb robbers.

Everyone rested for an hour or so, then packed up their things and started on the road again.

On the way, Wang Xuewen glanced at his watch.

Find out that the time of the watch has stopped!

Immediately raised eyebrows.

Although the watch is precise, it is not so easy to break.

And he remembered that Mount Zagrama was a magnetic mountain!

If the magnetic field is too strong, it will interfere with nearby magnetic fields.

Precision instruments such as watches will also be affected.

Wang Xuewen immediately took out the compass.

Sure enough, I saw that the pointer of the compass kept spinning and couldn't stop at all.

This is a typical manifestation of magnetic field interference.

The magnetic field here is so disordered, that is to say, Mount Zagrama is very close!

The archaeological team continued to move forward.

Wang Xuewen glanced into the distance from time to time, for fear of missing Mount Zagrama.

I walked for a long time.

"Stop!!" Lao Hu suddenly stopped the team.

Seeing the team stop, Wang Xuewen glanced around again.

"Huh?" 4.3

Wang Xuewen suddenly saw a black 'long dragon' lying on the ground in the extreme distance in front of them along the ground.

There is a gap in the middle!

Wang Xuewen's eyes lit up, it must be Mount Zagrama! !

He immediately got off the camel and walked towards the front of the team.

Others followed.

"What's wrong?" Wang Xuewen asked.

"I took a look just now. We have now gone out of the coverage of the Zidu Dark River. I can't find any trace of the Dark River at all." An Liman looked at the crowd and said.

"Then when will we finally find it?" the fat man asked hastily.

"Half a day ago, don't go any further, go any further, I really can't find my way back!!" An Liman persuaded.

"Haven't we already found Mount Zagrama?" Wang Xuewen raised his finger in the direction of Mount Zagrama.

468、The Camel Was Scared (Please Subscribe!)

"Mount Zagrama? Where?"

"Where is the mountain?"

Others looked in the direction Wang Xuewen pointed, but they didn't see any mountains.

There is a piece of yellow sand everywhere.

Shirley Yang and Lao Hu took out the binoculars.

"Look with a telescope!" Wang Xuewen said.

"Hey! Hey!" The others took out the binoculars.

Everyone looked into the distance, and sure enough, they saw a mountain range stretching across the desert in the very far horizon.

In the middle of the mountains, there is still a small gap.

Shirley Yang put down the binoculars, and quickly took out the notebook from her backpack.

She kept turning the pages, and quickly turned to the place she was looking for.

"In the depths of the desert, there is no trace of the Zidu dark river. In this sea of ​​death where not a single blade of grass grows, two huge black magnetic mountains stand facing each other in the afterglow of the setting sun."

"Like two ancient warriors in black armor, silent guardians of ancient secrets."

"Through the valley like a gate, a legendary city appeared in front of you!!" Xueli Yang looked at everyone excitedly after reading this sentence. 26

"Wait, what mountain were you talking about just now?" The fat man was afraid that he didn't hear clearly just now.

"Cishan!" Shirley Yang said immediately.

"Cishan?" Lao Hu was also puzzled.

"That's why my watch malfunctioned because it was affected by the magnetic field of the magnetic mountain." Wang Xuewen said.

"What's wrong with the watch??" The fat man and Lao Hu hurriedly raised their hands to look at their watches.

"My watch has stopped!!" the fat man said in shock.

"Mine stopped too!"

"mine too!"

"I'm not leaving either!" The rest of the archaeological team also said.

"Not only the watch, but also my compass. Since half a day ago, it has been spinning around and can't point to a clear direction!"

"At first I thought it was a coincidence, but I didn't expect it was really because of Cishan!!" Shirley Yang was so excited.

"If there are such two big mountains around, then the Zidu Underground River is likely to be intercepted by the Cishan Mountain underground. Therefore, it is normal that we can't find any trace of the Underground River on the ground!" Fatty's mind suddenly changed. I'm enlightened.

"Fatty! Well said!" Shirley Yang looked at Fatty with certainty.

"What did you call me?" The fat man didn't react for a while.

During this journey, Shirley Yang always called him Mr. Wang Kaixuan.

"It's not important." Old Hu interrupted Fatty's question.

"The black mountain range is exactly as described in the notebook. It is almost exactly the same as the photo!"

"It is basically certain that it is Mount Zagrama recorded in the notebook!!"

"Finding Mount Zagrama means we have found the ancient city of Jingjue!!"

"As long as we pass through that valley, we will reach the ancient city of Jingjue in no time!!" Shirley Yang said, pointing to the mountains in the distance.
