“The place where the Pisces jade pendant is produced is not necessarily the mausoleum of the Queen Mother of the West.
Furthermore, if the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West is completely exposed, it will not be our turn to explore it now. "
The possibility mentioned by Jiang Yingxue is also very serious. If the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West had been known to everyone, I am afraid that it would have been visited by various tomb robbers, and the remaining items would have been emptied by rescue excavation.
It can be said that except for a few tomb bricks, nothing can be left at the site.
Relevant items will also become popular in the black market. Who knows if they are spread to overseas museums, or even if they are rescued and excavated, they will become national treasures.
These things are difficult for relevant research experts to access, let alone idlers like them.
It is no exaggeration to say that if the place where the Pisces Jade Pendant was produced was really the mausoleum of the Queen Mother of the West, the possible results they had worked so hard to deduce would have turned into nothing.
The expectation was fulfilled, money and time were spent, but the result was such a flower in the water, the moon in the mirror.
"It seems I should emphasize that it is possible.
If the Queen Mother of the West is just the result of a certain person being deified, then she and the tombs of her descendants will inevitably form a complete tomb group.
A treasure that can replicate people, or even represent the authority of the Queen Mother of the West, is likely to be taken into the tomb by the last Queen Mother of the West.
Precisely because of its attribute of setting the sun on the west mountain, the location and size of its mausoleums will be much different. "
As he emphasizes throughout, it's all based on guesswork.
It's not worth putting too much emotion into what's wrong, right or wrong.
After Bai Ning said this, Jiang Yingxue also felt that she was a little too sentimental. Perhaps it was because Bai Ning's reasoning was too real and her past record was very good, so she subconsciously regarded it as an important reference standard. .
"So, where are you going to start?"
Jiang Yingxue returned to asking coldly, as if asking how a large sum of money should be wasted.
“Let’s start from the direction of Lop Nur close to the Altyn Mountains.
If it was really classified as a remnant of the Kunlun Mountains in ancient times, a last queen would definitely have her tomb as close to it as possible.
Kunlun is a sacred mountain, not to mention that the Queen Mother of the West is a cave-dwelling clan. "
Just as Jiang Yingxue believed, every step Bai Ning made was well-founded and full of fascinating logic.
After replenishing a large amount of fresh water and gasoline resources, the convoy advanced directly into the depths of Lop Nur.
The long smoke and dust stirred up by the motorcade also never attracted anyone's attention, but they were just a group of restless young people who liked to spend their youth in the desert.
As the saying goes, when you are full and full, you have nothing to do.
The convoy was huge. In order to prevent tire blowouts, the difficult gravel road made the team advance very slowly. When the sun set, they only advanced less than 70 kilometers.
At a speed of more than ten kilometers per hour, it can be said that this group of luxury cars is moving at a snail's pace.
This is determined by the harsh geographical environment of Lop Nur. If you want to keep the tires stable for a long time, this is the only way. No one dares to complain about such speed, they can only get off the car and do what they should do.
The desert is lonely and straight, and the desolate desert may lack the color of life, but it certainly does not lack the red sunset glow that fills the sky.
After a bumpy day, everyone was very tired, and many employees who had done a lot of physical work fell asleep one after another.
There was still a blazing bonfire in the camp, and the core members of the team were not qualified to go to bed early.
It seems that the emptiness of the desert wilderness has infected everyone here, silence is the only tone, and even the occasional bonfire seems boring and boring.
It didn't matter to Liu Cheng who was sitting silently around the campfire and struggling to make midnight snacks. He was eating silently and sleeping silently, which was really good.
The night is getting deeper and deeper, the lonely moon is gradually hanging in the middle, and it is time to go to bed after eating and drinking.
Liu Cheng stretched out and stood up, but was blinded by a bright light that penetrated through the cracks in the tent.
"who is it?"
Liu Cheng, who was stressed out, complained, "If you are the bread and butter parent, forget it. If you are also a laborer, then you must apologize, a big apology."
"sorry for disturbance.
I heard snoring everywhere in the camp. I thought everyone had already rested, so I didn't dare to say anything.
My motorcade broke down a few kilometers away. I went out on foot to ask for help. When I saw the light of your campfire, I came closer and asked for your help.
Don't worry, everyone, I am the tour guide here, and all of my old acquaintances in this town are here. "
The visitor seemed to be extremely hungry, so he came up and ate a few mouthfuls of Liu Cheng's leftovers, and drank a few more sips of half a bottle of mineral water before he could explain.
Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he did look like a tour guide, but there were many holes in his clothes and he was dirty all over. He didn't look like he had just traveled a few kilometers, but rather like a refugee from somewhere.
“Looking at how hungry you are, you don’t look like you just walked a few kilometers.
Even if you're lost, it doesn't match your status as a tour guide. Why can't you even make up lies? "
Liu Cheng, who was stunned, felt angry and was the first to point out the loopholes in the visitor's words. He was extremely merciless.
"How can it be?
At first glance, you all are from the city. You have never experienced the pain of the sand sea. Walking for a few kilometers here may be fatal.
This is my ID card and tour guide certificate. If you don’t believe it, you can check it. "
Continuing to eat the food in his hand, Sima Tian handed out the two documents in his pocket. The target person was Liu Cheng, who was becoming suspicious.
This move was obviously provocative, but Liu Cheng, who was in high spirits, didn't care. He took it unceremoniously and looked at it carefully, as if he could really tell the authenticity of the two documents.
Bai Ning squinted at the farce between the two, and was a little confused about the sudden appearance of Sima Tian.
This place is only sixty or seventy kilometers away from Lop Nur Town. As a tour guide here, how could you get lost in such a close place?
Looking at the embarrassment on his body, it doesn't look like he came out alone to ask for help, but more like he was in embarrassment after being chased by something.
However, what danger could there be in pursuing a person with the status of a tour guide?
What's more, this man, who is a tour guide, deliberately deceives the foreign tourists who help him, as if he is guarding against some unpredictable risks.
"Boss, look, there seems to be no problem. The anti-counterfeiting signs are all there, and there is a chip in the ID card."
Liu Cheng seemed to realize that he could not judge the authenticity of the ID card, so he could only leave the mess in Bai Ning's hands by checking it.
It doesn't matter if he just eats and waits for death. Unexpectedly, he is quite good at taking the blame at the critical moment.
But Bai Ning just glanced at the name on the certificate and signaled Liu Cheng to return the things to Sima Tian.
For these things that have been prepared long ago, it is impossible to check without a household registration system. The people who apply for fake certificates are not because of poor skills, but because they cannot truly forge a person's household registration information.
“This little brother is still moral.
I won't bother you too much. If your schedule is not convenient, then please borrow your satellite phone.
I still have some friends in town. If they get the news, they will definitely send a car to pick me up. "
After taking back his belongings, Sima Tian very wisely put forward his request for help.
No one can refuse this kind of request, but for the phone bill of a few dollars, the food Sima Tian just ate cost more than this.
However, what Sima Tian didn't expect was that Bai Ning would enthusiastically introduce the names of the people sitting here to him.
Sima Tian was puzzled, and Liu Cheng was even slightly shocked. Is it necessary for a stranger who suddenly appeared to exchange numbers like this?
This set of operations seemed to interrupt some of Sima Tian's established rhythms, and the atmosphere in the venue fell into a brief silence, leaving only the beeping sound of the campfire.
It was a little too quiet, as if everyone was waiting for the continuation of Bai Ning's inexplicable behavior.
“We are here for a self-driving trip, where can we go without having fun?
If your fleet does encounter difficulties, we will be happy to help you.
This kind of helping others can be regarded as an excellent travel experience.
The so-called meaning of the journey is not to encounter all kinds of magnificent and inexplicable scenery and meet all kinds of interesting souls on the road.
Being able to meet the Sima tour guide by chance was a small blessing on our trip. "
Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, I got such a result.
Are you pretending to be a tourist and deliberately deceiving this fake tour guide?
Showing an inexplicable smile on the side, Jiang Yingxue looked at the inexplicable extension of the farce in the field, and she really couldn't understand the meaning of Bai Ning's move.
Even if Sima Tian is just a little thief who appeared out of thin air, is it a bit too much to adopt such a costly plan for him?
Furthermore, now that everyone is busy looking for the tomb of the last Queen Mother of the West, how can they have time to waste time with a dispensable little character?
Could it be that Bai Ning saw some important information from this fake tour guide?
However, from the moment of contact until now, Sima Tian only showed two documents, and it was difficult to tell whether they were genuine or not. What could Bai Ning be keenly aware of?
Behind Bai Ning's weird behavior, there is usually some inexplicable insight. Jiang Yingxue is currently unable to fit in with Bai Ning's brain circuit, and can only watch the changes from the sidelines.
"No.
I came here just to grab a meal and borrow a satellite phone.
As for asking you to help tow the truck or even take it back to town, wouldn't that be too much trouble for you? "
If there really was some secret behind Sima Tian, then he could have agreed without hesitation, and then attracted Bai Ning and his party to the preset ambush location.
But who would have expected that Sima Tian directly refused. It seems that the hidden secret may be greater than expected.
