King of Adventures in the Wild

Chapter 115 Investigate the news
Lin Fan and Lin Fan flew to Taklamah City on a passenger plane at 08:30, spent about five hours safely in the air, and arrived at the long-lost Hada International Airport at [-]:[-] pm.

This is a famous tourist city named after the Taklima Desert, which attracts thousands of domestic and foreign adventure enthusiasts every year.

Lin Fan was wearing a fashionable T-shirt with sunglasses, and looked like an urban white-collar worker, while Shi Lan was wearing a trendy blouse, with long hair and shawls. In addition to her good looks, she also attracted many people along the way. attention.

Fortunately, Lin Fan also gave her a pair of sunglasses beforehand, which well concealed her original appearance. Otherwise, with the current popularity of the two of them, I don't know how many fans would be chasing and intercepting them!

Just walking out of Hada International Airport, a strong exotic atmosphere came over us. The people here are good at singing and dancing, and the girls in Tashi are tall and fair-skinned. It is recognized internationally as a gathering place for beauties.

It was the first time for Shi Lan to come to such a far place, and she was immediately attracted by this unique style, staring at all kinds of delicious fruits, and of course Harbin’s characteristic kebabs. It directly made Shi Lan unable to move away!
A bearded old man fiddled with the mutton skewers while speaking in broken Chinese with a smile: "My mutton skewers are inherited from my ancestors. They taste great and are the most famous in Tajikistan!"

"This beautiful girl, do you want to try it? It doesn't taste good, and it doesn't cost money! I, Uncle Tatamu, keep my word!"

Lin Fan stepped forward and said with a smile, "Uncle Tatamu, give me fifty skewers."

"Okay, wait a minute, Uncle Tatamu will be grilling it soon." The bearded Uncle Tatamu happily put the strings of fresh mutton on the iron grill and started grilling.

"Not so much, we can't finish it." Shi Lan whispered in Lin Fan's ear.

"The place we are going to is not simple. It is very hidden on the edge of the Taklama Desert. It would be difficult for us to find it without the locals leading the way."

Lin Fan replied in a low voice, he knew that the Loulan Institute of Archaeology was not as famous as the Academy of Sciences, it could be said to be an extremely mysterious place, engaged in some very mysterious archaeological research work.

Even the locals rarely know of its existence.

"You mean to ask this Uncle Tatamu for information?" Shi Lan said quietly.

"Smart, look at this Uncle Tatamu's skin is exceptionally dark, his hands are rough, and there is a small amount of gravel in the cap on his head. I'm sure he often walks in the desert, so he should be a pure nomad." Lin Fan explained.

After a while, Uncle Tatamu packed fifty skewers of grilled lamb and handed them to Lin Fan with a smile: "Adaxi (friend), the delicious lamb skewers are ready, welcome to come again next time."

Lin Fan took the wrapped mutton skewers and said: "Uncle Tatamu, we are college students majoring in history, and we love the legend of Taklama very much. I would like to ask where is the most famous museum in Tata City. We Good to visit."

Uncle Tatamu took a serious look at Lin Fan, and then said: "Is that the most famous museum? Of course it is the Tashi National Museum. If you want to know the story of Loulan, that is the best place."

Then the uncle changed the subject, with a bit of disdain in his tone, "The people in the museum are very arrogant. They think they are the authority in Loulan archaeology, and often publish some so-called historical truths in newspapers, but even someone like me The old man knows it's a lie, they don't understand anything at all!"

When Lin Fan heard this, he felt something was going on, and asked quickly, "From what Uncle Tatamu said, is there anyone who knows Loulan's history better than them?"

"Of course, Uncle Tatum never lies, but they never believed me, and even drove me out as a liar." Uncle Tatum said angrily.

It can be heard that Tatamu once had an extraordinary experience, but he was regarded as a liar, so Lin Fan comforted him in a timely manner: "They are really too arrogant, but Uncle Tatamu, I believe in you and hope to I can hear your legendary experience."

Lin Fan's face was sincere, and Tatamu said happily: "Do you really want to hear about Uncle's experience?"

"Yes, I will always have the most sincere respect for the truth." Lin Fan said nonsense.

"Since you are willing to listen to my stories, uncle will tell you some bizarre experiences. It must have been more than 40 years ago. At that time, uncle was only 20 years old."

The general content of the story is that more than 40 years ago, an archaeologist organized five or six local people to enter the Taklima Desert, and young Tatamu was one of them.

The desert is a very dangerous place, and there are all kinds of horrible legends. No one dares to go deep into the core area of ​​the Taklama Desert, but the archaeologist is generous and keeps raising commissions. In the end, there are a few who are not afraid of death. The people followed into the great desert.

But in the desert, they encountered danger. Their camels were gnawed into bones by a group of terrifying ants. They ran away desperately, and finally got rid of those ants. When everyone thought they had escaped, something even more terrifying happened. up.

That night, they were resting under a pile of rocks. In the middle of the night, Tatamu was awakened by a sound of biting. He saw a huge lizard bite off the head of a team member. The scene was extremely terrifying .

They were very scared and ran away crazily, but unfortunately only the archaeologist and Tatamu escaped, and then they found a dilapidated city not far away. The archaeologist said that the name of the city seemed to be Loulan!
They inspected there for a whole few days, and finally had to leave because they had no food, but they encountered a sandstorm within a short distance. In that environment, it was almost impossible to leave alive.

In the end, the archaeologist gave Tatamu his kettle, and went to the depths of the desert alone. In the end, Tatum escaped from the desert by chance, but he never saw the archaeologist come back.

This is the end of the story. If someone else heard this story, they would definitely think it was made up, but Lin Fan had personally experienced those events, such as corpse-eating ants, man-eating lizards, and the dilapidated ancient city of Loulan. In the eyes.

"Uncle Tatamu, do you know the identity of that archaeologist?" Lin Fan asked immediately. If he guessed right, that archaeologist should be Wu Darong's twin brother!

"Of course I know, he is the most knowledgeable and talented person I have ever met, and he is also very kind. If it weren't for the water bottle he gave me, you wouldn't be here listening to uncle telling stories now."

Uncle Tatum paused and continued: "He came out of a very hidden research institute on the edge of the Taklama Desert. Few people knew about that place, and it was so heavily guarded that it was impossible for ordinary people to enter it. .”

"If the kettle in my hand hadn't caught their attention, they might not have known that place existed in this life!"

Speaking of which, Lin Fan has already confirmed that the archaeologist is 100% Wu Darong's twin brother, and this bearded uncle knows how to get to the Loulan Archaeological Institute, which has to be said to be very lucky.

"Uncle Tatamu, can you take us to that hidden research institute? I can pay the commission." Lin Fan said hurriedly.

"No, it's not working now, it's impossible for outsiders to go in, because the security there is too strict, even a fly can't fly in, so don't think so much, if you like Loulan archaeology, you can go to the museum to have a look , there is also a lot of useful information there."

Uncle Tatamu shook his head and advised Lin Fan not to think about being able to enter the Loulan Institute of Archeology.

"Uncle, listen to me, the archaeologist you're talking about is probably our elder, look at my old photos of him here!"

As Lin Fan spoke, he took out Wu Darong's photo and handed it to Uncle Tatamu. This photo was prepared before he came, and his purpose was to use it to enter the mysterious research institute.

After Tatamu took the photo, his reaction was very strong. It was obvious that he still remembered the appearance of Wu Darong's twin brother, which immediately brought back his memories.

"It's really him, is he really your elder?" Tatamu couldn't help asking.

"Yes, he is our elder. He has been missing for many years. The purpose of our coming here this time is to learn some truth!" Lin Fan was full of words, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that he is not lying.

But Tatum didn't think too much about it. Although he was hired to explore the desert at that time, the archaeologists saved his life at a critical moment, so he was always grateful.

"Since you are the descendants of that archaeologist, you may be able to go in, but uncle can't take you there, but don't worry, I will tell you the route!"

Speaking of which, Tatamu took out a yellowed map from his arms, with many place names scattered on it, "This is the map that uncle used to explore the desert back then. You see, this place is the location of the research institute." , isn't it very hidden!"

Lin Fan took the map and looked carefully. The location of the Loulan Archaeological Institute is located in a very barren place, surrounded by desert on all sides. No wonder it is difficult for people to find it.

Moreover, it is said that there are guard patrols in the surrounding hundreds of miles. Once outsiders step in, they will be warned and then driven out.

The two of them thanked Uncle Tatamu, then bought two camels in the market and headed to the mysterious Loulan Archaeological Institute. According to Lin Fan's initial estimate, it would take at least half a day to walk from Tashi to Loulan Archaeological Institute. time.

Fortunately, this is only the edge of the desert, and it was much easier for them to drive on camels.
