Tomb Raider: I have a coffin-opening crit compensation!

Chapter 68 The fiery red morning glow is about to change!
Fang Ye looked at these polite students and nodded with a smile.

When everyone was present, they also held a brief meeting to discuss their early actions.

"Mr. Hu, we plan to start from Bosten Lake, look for the ancient Kongque River channel in the south, and then enter the deep desert through the ancient Kongque River channel, and go south along the Zidu Dark River to find the Jingjue Ancient City. What do you think?" Shirley Yang asked.

Because Hu Bayi is the only one who is good at Fengshui among the nine-member team, Hu Bayi will also be consulted for the route arrangement.

After hearing this, Hu Bayi thought for a while and said, "I don't think so. Taking a zigzag route in the desert requires a lot of time and a lot of materials. It is easy to get lost in the desert. I suggest that you find a local It might be better for someone to lead the way."

Hearing this, Shirley Yang and Professor Chen looked at each other and nodded.

After all, they are still academics, and many practical things are still not clear enough.

"Okay, then listen to Mr. Hu. Next, let's talk about the personnel arrangement." Professor Chen said, "We are a nine-man team, and Master Fang will be the captain, and Mr. Hu will be the vice-captain. Arrangements by the chief and deputy captains are not allowed to act without authorization."

Professor Chen looked at Chu Jian and the others and said that he was mainly worried that these students would be impulsive because of their youth.

The reason why Fang Ye was appointed as the captain was because he had inquired in Yanping these days and found that Fang Ye seemed to be quite capable.

I learned from Da Jinya that Fang Ye was not only the special advisor of Nanfeng Building, but even the members of the Gu family were rescued by Fang Ye.

Ever since, Fang Ye became the captain's first choice.

After hearing Professor Chen's words, everyone accepted the arrangement without any resistance.

Seeing that there was no problem, everyone discussed some details, and then the meeting was adjourned, and each went to rest.

After arriving at the place, Hu Bayi contacted a comrade-in-arms back then, Liu Gang.

With Liu Gang's help, they got to know an old man in the livestock business to be their guide.

No one can remember the real name of the old man. People only call him by his nickname, An Liman, which is the living map. It seems that this has become a symbol of him.

"No, it's the windy season now, and it's very dangerous to enter the desert, and it's easy to be blamed by Hu Da." Hearing the request of the crowd, An Liman quickly shook his head and refused.

Fang Ye asked Professor Chen to produce some proofs from their archaeological team, frightening An Liman with half-truths and half-false.

After An Liman smoked a couple of cigarettes in silence, he nodded helplessly in agreement, but asked Fang Ye and the others not to bring the car, saying that it was disrespectful to Hu Da.

Fang Ye and the others agreed to this point. After all, in the desert, a car is not as useful as a camel.

After reaching a consensus, An Liman took Fang Ye and the others to select more than 20 camels, which were filled with the supplies brought by Professor Chen and the others.

After finishing repairs, the group set off on camels, while An Liman led the camels and walked ahead, leading the way for everyone.

With their outfits, unsuspecting outsiders thought they were a camel caravan of merchants, slowly advancing in the desert.

Under the leadership of An Liman, they set out from Bosten Lake to the southwest, intending to walk west along the Kongque River until they found the ancient river channel heading south.

In the desert, the sky is full of yellow sand, which is boundless, and it seems that one can forget the edge of the world at a glance.

"Fatty Lord, can you really kill zombies with one blow?" Chu Jian asked excitedly.

A few of their students were surrounding the fat man, listening to the fat man bragging about going to the tomb. Those mysterious experiences of going to the tomb were obviously very appealing to the students.

"Of course, that white stiffness suddenly flew towards me, trying to sneak up on me, and those nails that hadn't been cut for hundreds of years stabbed straight at the center of my eyebrow." The fat man said happily.

"Wow! It's so dangerous, how did you turn defeat into victory?" Ye Yixin also asked curiously.

"Come on, Fatty, don't hold your breath." Chu Jian asked.

Fatty enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by stars very much, and after a bit of complacency, he continued to tell the story.

"At that time, I took out a sword full of cold light and pointed it at that white stiff!"

"As soon as the sword was out of its sheath, I saw that white stiff was blown away by an invisible energy, and the nails that hadn't been cut for hundreds of years were also turned into crumbs. With the sword in my hand, I strode towards white stiff and judged him This sinful life."

"Wow! Fat man!" Chu Jian and the others said excitedly after hearing this.

The fat man laughed until he couldn't see his eyes, and continued to blow the next story.

Hu Bayi and Fang Ye saw the bustling scene at Fatty's side, smiled at each other, and continued on their way on camels.

But Shirley Yang didn't know if it was because of the arrangement of the route, she rode a camel and followed Hu Bayi, asking all the time.

Professor Chen and Assistant Professor Hao had been talking about profound knowledge, but Fang Ye couldn't understand, so he could only ride a camel and look at the boundless scenery alone.

The place they are walking now is the ancient channel of the Kongque River. The riverbed below has not completely dried up, and there is not much wind and sand, so it is not really entering the desert.

There are scattered small lakes around, and some red-billed gulls can be seen swimming on them from time to time.

Everyone seemed to be on vacation, very comfortable.

It's a pity that after crossing this river, they really entered the desert. Under the leadership of An Liman, the people diverted to the southeast and headed towards Loulan and Lop Nur.

Further on, there is a large mobile desert, known as the Black Desert, which is said to have been created by Hu Dawei to punish the heretics.

But for Fang Ye and the others, they only care about whether they can get out of this fluid desert smoothly.

In this desert, the features of the landforms change day by day. If there is no familiar person to lead the way, they will even stay in the same place and keep spinning.

An Liman is worthy of being a living map. He memorizes all the features of the black desert. From the roof of the castle to the tower, the Populus euphratica and Haloxylon with sharp corners are all An Liman's reference points. .

These things have formed a map in An Liman's mind, connecting them into a way out.

As time passed, a group of people kept walking forward under the morning light, and the clouds in the sky gave off an orange glow, which looked like a Buddhist learner going west.

At noon, when the sun was scorching, Fang Ye and the others stopped on their way and rested on the spot.

They looked at the beautiful scenery around them and talked freely, and the group instantly became acquainted, as if they were good friends who talked about everything.

Even Fatty, who was upset at Assistant Professor Hao at first, hooked Assistant Professor Hao's shoulders at this moment, pointing to the thousand-year-old Populus euphratica not far away, and chatting eloquently.

Just when everyone was happy, An Liman looked at the fiery red morning glow in the sky, and a trace of solemnity appeared on his face.

"Hurry up when you are driving at night, it seems that the weather is going to change."
