Chapter 533: Cishan, the Dead
"Damn it, someone stole the donkey and we just pulled out the peg, but we didn't get to eat the meat and just got scolded." Wang Kaixuan spat on the ground and cursed angrily.
"Fatty, tomb robbing is not a legitimate business after all." Rosen said, "From ancient times to the present, tomb robbing is the most detestable thing. In ancient times, it was a capital crime. Although it sometimes makes money quickly, it is definitely not a long-term solution. When you make money, you'd better quit as soon as possible. It's a sin to destroy your virtue."
"Boss Luo, is there really such a thing as hidden virtue?" Wang Kaixuan said suspiciously.
"If you believe it, it's there. If you don't believe it, what's the point of asking it?" Rosen looked at him with a smile.
Wang Kaixuan wanted to say something, but when he thought of Rosen's miraculous methods, he felt that this matter was unpredictable and became confused.
He is greedy for money and now he is short of money, so naturally he wants to make all the money he can, but he has not yet lost his good karma and suffered retribution in the future.
This made Wang Kaixuan, who always claimed to be fearless, fall silent and wonder whether this job was really suitable for him.
Chen Jiuren and Hao Aiguo brought several students to carry out rescue excavations in the tomb. They were busy until the late night before they stopped. However, he did not rest but found Hu Bayi and the other two.
"Captain Xiao Hu, Mr. Luo, we have carefully observed and determined that the tomb was robbed within the past three to five days. It is definitely not a coincidence that the tomb robbers appeared here. Perhaps they also came for the Jingjue Ancient City."
Chen Jiuren looked at the three people and said, "So our idea is to set off as soon as possible. We must find the Jingjue Ancient City before those people do. Otherwise, if they find it, the Jingjue Ancient City will face another catastrophe. What do you think?"
"Brother Luo..." Hu Bayi looked at Rosen.
"You decide." Rosen said, "I have no problem with that."
"Then you guys take a rest. We'll set off in four hours."
After a busy day, everyone ate a quick meal and got on their camels again, continuing their journey in the night.
Rosen actually hoped to meet the group of foreign tomb robbers, so that he could treat them with good things with local characteristics, such as wind and sand.
However, it is not easy to meet another group of people in this vast sea of sand. It is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
At least the crows and ghost wolves released by Rosen were wandering around within dozens of miles, but no one, let alone humans, was seen, not even a single living creature.
Over the next ten days, the group continued to advance deeper into the black desert.
Because there was plenty of water and food, everyone was not as anxious as in the original plot.
Even Anliman didn't keep nagging all day long about how he might die this time or something like that.
While they were on the road that day, Shirley Yang suddenly handed her compass to Hu Bayi.
Hu Bayi looked down and saw that the pointer inside was spinning like a propeller, so he looked at Shirley Yang in surprise.
"It's been like this for a long time." Shirley Yang said.
"My watch was also speeding up and slowing down before, but now it has stopped." Hu Bayi waved his hand to let the team stop and rest for a while, while he found Rosen, showed him the abnormality of the compass and watch, and said, "What should we do now?"
"What does the notebook say?" Rosen asked instead of answering.
"It says that they also lost the trace of the Zidu Dark River in the depths of the Black Desert. In the boundless sea of death, two huge black magnetic mountains stood facing each other in the setting sun..."
Before she could finish, Rosen said, "That's right. The magnetic field around the magnetic mountain must be disordered. It's normal for this to happen."
"But if that's the case, how can we find the ancient city of Jingjue?" Shirley Yang said distressedly: "Without a compass, how can we identify the direction?"
"Yours doesn't work, but it doesn't mean mine won't work." Rosen said as he took out the M44 compass that would never get lost. Thinking of the Ancient City of Jingjue, he saw the needle move to the side.
Shirley Yang and Hu Bayi were really surprised to see that his compass was still so stable.
But considering Rosen's various miraculous methods, it is not surprising that he has several extraordinary items that are beyond the ordinary.
"Follow me." Rosen patted the bucktooth camel and immediately walked to the front to take over Anliman's job of leading the way.
Anliman had to rely on some geographical landmarks along the way to lead the way, such as poplar trees, traces of ancient tombs, and mountains, so the route inevitably became tortuous.
But Rosen didn't need all these. He had a small map that he could consult at any time, and a compass that would never get lost pointed him in the exact direction. It was like finding a direct route in the fog, so he led everyone straight towards the direction of the Jingjue Ancient City.
They walked until the late night when Rosen and others arrived at the valley between the two magnetic mountains.
The bucktoothed camel running in front suddenly stopped.
The other camels also stopped, staying uneasily in the distance and refusing to move forward.
"Captain Hu, Master Luo, it's God who is not letting us go forward. Let's retreat quickly." An Liman was shocked and urged. (Note)
"We have finally come here, how can we go back?" Hu Bayi said dissatisfiedly.
"They won't move forward. What can I do?" Anliman pointed at the restless herd of camels.
"Something must have scared the camel ahead." Shirley Yang looked ahead, took out a cold firework for lighting and handed it to Hu Bayi, saying, "Let's take a closer look first."
"That thing doesn't work." Rosen said, and stretched out his hand to shoot a flare into the air.
This thing was something he had seized from the U.S. military in the world of Changjin Lake. He had hardly used it since then. Who would have thought that it would be used in a place like this.
The flares flew into the air and immediately burst into bright light, illuminating the surroundings as bright as day.
Then everyone saw a man wearing a hat sitting next to a rock in front of them.
He was motionless, and it was unclear whether he was asleep or dead.
However, it seems unlikely that it was because of him that the camels were scared and dared not move forward.
"Let's go and take a look." Rosen said and walked straight over.
Wang Kaixuan followed with a gun in hand.
Hu Bayi also handed the M1911 that Rosen had given him on the Kunlun Glacier to Shirley Yang, but he himself quickly followed with an engineer shovel.
"Dead." Rosen used a javelin to pry open the corpse's hat and veil, revealing a blue face.
"Why is this happening?" Hu Bayi asked in surprise.
"It looks like he was poisoned." Rosen said.
"There are still corpses here." Shirley Yang said standing nearby.
Then everyone saw not only several other bodies, but also AKs thrown on the ground and scattered explosives.
It can be seen that they are most likely the people who used explosives to blow up the tomb chamber and enter to rob the tomb, but no one knows how they were poisoned and died here.
Hu Bayi used an engineering shovel to lift up their headscarves and found that their faces were also blue, which made him feel a little creepy.
"This is too weird. We have to leave quickly." Hu Bayi said.
Note: The plot is definitely different from the original novel. I am afraid of crossing the line. I don't dare to take risks here, so I just wrote it like this. If you want to see the original Dad, I suggest you read the original novel.
