"I'm sorry, Director Hao, we took it for granted." Professor Chen apologized. They also knew that this request was a bit abrupt.
"Professor Chen, I also understand your hatred of tomb robbers, but my premise is to ensure your safety. I am considering other things. I hope you understand." Hao Shuai explained.
"I'm afraid that that group of people will find Jingjue Ancient City before me, and the damage will be great." Professor Chen worried.
"Professor Chen, don't worry. If the ancient city of Jingjue was so easy to find, it wouldn't have been rumored for so many years." Hao Shuai knew what would happen if the group of tomb robbers were wiped out.
"I hope so!"
"Your task now is to have a good rest. Don't lie down before we reach Jingjue Ancient City. Then everything will be in vain."
"Yes~yes~, listen to me, patriot, let's go back and rest!"
…
After a day's rest, the group once again embarked on a journey to find the ancient city of Jingjue.
In the following ten days, the archaeological team went deeper and deeper into the black desert, and finally lost all traces of the Zidu Anhe River. Old man An Liman's eyes turned red, and he shook his hands for the last time. There was nothing he could do. It seemed that Hu Da only allowed us to go this far.
At this time, everyone was already exhausted, and the food and water they brought out were not enough. That is to say, Hao Shuai brought out food and water from time to time, eliminating the worries about materials, otherwise Hu Ba would take the people back home early in the morning. .
Everyone was curious about Hao Shuai's ability to bring out all kinds of supplies, but their mental and physical exhaustion made them no longer in the mood to explore Hao Shuai's secrets.
Looking at the exhausted and demoralized group of people, Hao Shuai comforted him: "Everyone, if you persist, we will be there soon."
Hao Shuai's words made everyone look at him with hope. Shirley Yang even drove the camel to Hao Shuai and asked: "Taoist Master, did you see something?"
Look, look!
Nothing but sand here is sand, what can I see!
Hao Shuai silently cursed in his heart, but he still explained: "I sensed changes in the nearby magnetic field."
"Magnetic field?" Shirley Yang asked doubtfully.
"Yes, think about what was recorded in the British explorer's notebook." Hao Shuai prompted.
After listening to Hao Shuai's words, Shirley Yang quickly took out the notebook in her bag and read the records about the ancient city of Jingjue: In this sea of death where no grass grows, two huge black magnetic mountains stand facing each other against the afterglow of the setting sun. Like two ancient warriors wearing black armor, silently guarding ancient secrets, passing through the gate-like valley, a legendary city appears in front of you.
"Black magnetic mountains? Taoist priest, are you saying that my proximity to those two magnetic mountains caused changes in the magnetic field?!" Shirley Yang said excitedly.
Hao Shuai nodded and looked at Shirley Yang like a coward.
"My mechanical watch has either stopped or gone fast and slow in the past two days. I thought the cheap watch was of poor quality and broke in the desert. Could it be that we are near those two magnetic mountains?" Hu Bayi He suddenly said while holding his watch.
Hu Bayi reminded others, and the members of the archaeological team took out their watches one after another. They saw that the situation was the same as Hu Bayi's, and knew that they had encountered strong geomagnetic interference, which made them even more convinced of Hao Shuai's words.
The morale of the team suddenly rose again.
But when they picked up the telescope and looked, they found nothing. In the distance, except for the endless desert, there was still desert.
Something else, it seems, doesn't exist.
"We'd better rest first and use Tianxing Feng Shui to locate the direction at night before setting off." Hu Bayi suggested.
"If you don't need to decide on a location, just go this way." Hao Shuai objected directly and pointed in a direction.
The only reason why this was so certain was because Hao Shuai sensed that the magnetic field was the most chaotic there.
Out of trust in Hao Shuai, the group continued walking for another half day.
The desert was extremely empty, thousands of miles away, and soon with Hao Shuai's eyesight, he could only feel that there was a faint black line at the end of the world!
"Look, we can finally see Cishan." Hao Shuai pointed forward and said loudly.
Professor Chen hurriedly took the telescope handed over by Hao Aiguo, adjusted the focus, and saw a black mountain range, like a static black dragon in the thousands of miles of yellow sand. The mountain range was cut off from it, and there was a mountain pass in the middle. These features were all consistent with what was recorded in the notes of the British explorer. consistent.
"It's really Zagrama Mountain, we've finally arrived!" Professor Chen said in surprise.
Everyone was refreshed and extremely excited. After a long journey and hardships, they finally found the gate of the ancient country of Jingjue!
After traveling for a long time, everyone was already a little tired. In addition, noon was the hottest time of the day, so it was not suitable to rush. But now that Zagrama Mountain was in sight, everyone ignored the heat and continued to move forward. .
As the saying goes, if you look up the mountain, you'll run to death. After looking in the right direction, the group of people didn't arrive at the mountain pass until late at night.
At this time, the moonlight is like water, and the desert is like a silent sea. In this ocean of sand, the Zagrama Mountains are undulating and covered with black stones. The closer you look, the more eye-catching you see.
It is more appropriate to say that it is a mountain. It is better to say that it is two oversized black stones. The diameter of these two huge stones is tens of kilometers. Only a shallow backbone is exposed in the sea of sand. The larger part is buried underground, maybe in the sea. Below, the two boulders themselves are connected as one, and the pass may be nothing more than a crack in the boulder.
This black stone contains magnets. Although the average content is not high, it is enough to affect the precision instruments used to determine the orientation. Even the metal objects on the camel's back are gradually becoming heavier.
The moonlight reflected nothing at all on the black stones. It was dark and midwinter inside the mountain pass, and everyone got off the camels and walked.
Hao Shuai and An Liman were in the front, and after Hu Bayi broke off, Shirley Yang and Fatty Wang were in the middle to provide support. The team formed a single column and slowly entered the valley.
This mountain was regarded as a sacred mountain by ancient people. It is said that two sages are buried there. This is mostly a myth. But from the perspective of Feng Shui, this place can really be regarded as occupying the entire situation, swallowing up everything. The black mountains are two black dragons guarding the place.
It is a lie that the ancestors can be buried on the mountain. If there is indeed the mausoleum of the exquisite queen behind the mountain, it would not be unexpected at all.
Just as everyone was preparing to enter Zagrama Mountain, the camels who were sitting down suddenly neighed and refused to move forward. Upon seeing this, An Liman said: "My camels have never looked like this. It's God who doesn't let us." You're moving forward, go back quickly."
"There should be something in front that scares the camel. Throw a firework over there to have a look." Hao Shuai ignored An Liman's nonsense and said directly to Shirley Yang.
After hearing this, Shirley Yang took out a cold pyrotechnic from her backpack, polished it and threw it forward. The fiery red light illuminated a small section of the valley in front.
There were dark rocks on both sides, and the ground was covered with thick yellow sand. Not far in front of Leng Yanhuo, there was a person sitting. He was wearing a white robe, a sand-proof turban on his head, and a With a rucksack, motionless.
"It seems to be a person?" Fatty Wang said.
"Bullshit, that's just a person." Hao Shuai looked down on Fatty Wang.
