Tomb Raider: I Can Hear Antiques Talk

Chapter 139 I've Seen You Big
Xiao Ran looked at An Liman who was discussing the route with Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang, and his heart was full of disbelief.Unexpectedly, the fragment of Faqiu seal that I always thought was in the ancient city of Jingjue was actually on An Liman's body.

He tried his best to recall everything that happened on the road. When he was running away in the sandstorm for the first time, the needle pointed to the front of the team. It turned out that he was actually pointing at An Liman.

When he was in the ancient city of Xiye, he thought that Yakuro was referring to the soul-locking orb buried in the holy well, but at that time, Yakuro was actually referring to An Liman who fed the camels alone.

Also, in front of the Kunlun Shenmu, the pointer of Yajiu Kuo seemed to be out of order, because at that time, the fragment in the western Xinjiang was already on him.

So, thinking about it this way, those Guanshan Taibao who destroyed Faqiu's seal are indeed unlikely to travel thousands of miles and risk their lives to put the fragments in Queen Jingjue's palace.But how did An Liman get this fragment?

He got up and wanted to ask, but he was stopped by his second uncle: "Xiao Ran, there are a lot of people here, so it's better not to let so many people know about it. I've already asked, wait a minute I... ..."

Having said that, the second uncle coughed violently.Xiao Ran hurriedly gave him a pat on the chest, since the second uncle already knew the specific situation, there was really no need for him to mention the issue of Qiu Yin in front of so many people.

After all, the second uncle hadn't fully recovered yet, and he talked too much, so tired that he fell asleep.Xiao Ran helped him cover the light, then walked towards Hu Bayi and the others.

An Liman was writing and drawing on the ground, when he saw Xiao Ran, he avoided his eyes unnaturally, pointed to a point and said: "Here, it is the place where we are protected by Hu Da now..."

According to his introduction, going south now is the Niya Oasis, which is very far away, and the road is full of deserts.To the east is Lop Nur, and across the desert is the endless Gobi, basically a dead end.Going north is the way you came here. In theory, you can reach the ancient city of Xiye, but if you want to return to the hinterland of the desert, you are basically close to death.

The death rate in these three directions is more than %, and now the only thing left is to go west, which is the direction of the Tarim River. If you travel at the fastest speed, it will take ten days to reach the confluence of the Tarim River, the Yarkant River, and the Hotan River.Go there to add some water, continue westward for six or seven days, and you will reach AKS. There are army garrisons and oil fields nearby, so survival will not be difficult.

"But the water and dry food left now, based on the minimum consumption of eleven of us, can last for about five days."

Hu Bayi looked at Xiao Ran, and briefly introduced to him the situation of the supplies checked by several people just now.

Xiao Ran made a calculation in his mind, now there are eleven people, but if Hao Aiguo, Chu Jian, Sa Dipeng and Ye Yixin died in the Jingjue Ruins, and he and the second uncle were removed, the remaining few people would be enough to support another ten more than days.

But there are no assumptions in history, and there are not so many ifs in the past.If it weren't for him, these people wouldn't have brought enough water when they passed by Xiye Ancient City, so as to prevent Ye Yixin or more people from suffering from dehydration, and they wouldn't have retreated from the adventure of Jingjue Ancient City. appears here.

What needs to be more worried now is how to find sufficient water sources so that so many people can reach AKS smoothly.For the current plan, we can only pray for a miracle.

Xiao Ran said to An Liman: "Master An, if you stop begging Hu Da, maybe God will send an envoy to pick us up again when he is happy."

An Liman glanced at him cautiously, and muttered in his mouth: "God is God, Hu Da is Hu Da..."

Still, he pulled the ragged blanket over and laid it on the ground, and again he turned his palms up in prayer.

God is God, and Hu Da is Hu Da. An Liman has also mentioned this point of view before.Xiao Ran couldn't help being curious, did this An Liman believe in more than one religion in order to enter the desert safely?

An Liman prayed with words, but no one could understand what he was saying.A full hour passed, An Liman's mouth was peeling, but there was still nothing nearby.

Xiao Ran couldn't bear it and lay down under the temporary sunscreen, looking at the blue sky, his mind slowly emptied.

"Look what that is! A white camel!"

Ye Yixin shouted chirpingly, everyone was attracted by her voice, and quickly got up to follow the direction she pointed.I saw the huge white camel walking slowly towards them, stopped halfway on the sand, blinked, then turned back and walked west.

An Liman opened his eyes and said excitedly: "Hu Da's emissary! The ancient curse is gone! Hu Da has taken back this desert again!"

Everyone cheered, hurriedly helped the old and the weak to ride on the camel, and walked behind the white camel.

"Old Hu, last time this old slippery man said that meeting a white camel would bring good luck. How many times have we almost left it on the road. Now we are following this white camel again, saying that the curse is gone. Hu Da took back the desert. It's reliable. Isn't it reliable?" The fat man asked.

Hu Bayi said: "It's better to believe what is there than to believe what is not. Use your brain and stomach, can you have any good ideas?"

The fat man scratched his head: "Forget it, these two places are empty now, let's go."

The white camel was like an old man walking downstairs of his house, walking at a leisurely pace until three or four hours later, when he bypassed a Changsha beam, a puddle of water appeared in front of everyone.

Everyone couldn't help cheering, but the white camel seemed to be frightened suddenly, and it started to trot at a faster speed, and disappeared all the way across the sand dunes.

The fat man untied his camel's connecting rope, and shouted: "I'll go and see!"

He urged the camel up the sand dune, put his hand in front of his forehead and looked around, looked around for a long time, and then came back resentfully.

"It's amazing, I can't even see a camel's hoofprint..."

An Liman first took the camels to drink water in the puddle, the water looked a bit cloudy, Xiao Ran dipped his hand into a drop and tasted it, the taste was strange, there was some sour and salty in the slightly bitter a feeling of.

"There are too many inorganic salts in this water, it is not suitable for human consumption, wait a minute..."

Shirley Yang put the water into the filter and filtered it, and then added some disinfectant tablets before distributing it to everyone.

An Liman still emphasized that this is a miracle bestowed by Hu Da, and it is proof that the curse has disappeared. There was no water exposed on the surface of this desert before.

All kinds of strange things happened along the way, and together with An Liman's supernatural talk, the young students seemed to really believe in Hu Da's miracle.

Seeing this, Hu Bayi quickly took up the task of the political commissar: "Let me tell you, this puddle is the direct flow of the Zidu dark river, because yesterday the sandstorm moved the desert and made the water near the ground seep. Come out partly. You are all college students, the future pillars of the country, you have to believe in science and the party, stand firm and have a strong fighting spirit, and you can't do that, idealism!"

Hao Aiguo took the opportunity to pull a few students aside, and began to criticize seriously.

Seeing that everyone dispersed one after another, Xiao Ran said to An Liman, "Mr. An, you said that there was no surface water here before. It seems that you have been here before."

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, An Liman said, "I've been here, I've seen you before..."

"what?"

Xiao Ran was a little confused, this An Liman was speaking Japanese?Or had An Liman seen him in the desert before?Could it be something before he crossed over?

Seeing his puzzled face, An Liman pondered for a while and said, "Big Daddy, that's your father..."

Hearing what An Liman said, Xiao Ran's eyes widened in shock, and he was completely speechless.
