Tomb Raiders: Beginning Qinglong Bloodline

Chapter 21 Chapter 21
As the fat man rushed forward, the rest of the team also accelerated. Soon, they had reached the depths of the black desert. Looking at the black sand beach in the distance, Professor Chen asked An Liman: "Brother, have you been to this black desert before?"

An Liman smiled wryly when he heard the words and said to him: "This is the hell of Huangsha, even the old man Hu Da doesn't want to come! As for me, I have never been here. If you didn't force me to come, I would just fight Death will not come."

Complaints are complaints, An Liman is called a living map in the desert by the local people, and it is by no means a vain name.Although it was the first time in his life that he entered this taboo black desert, with years of experience in the desert, he was able to find plants such as shuttleweed and Artemisia annua in those sand nests.

It was only by following the traces of these plants and his years of experience in the desert that he could lead the archaeological team forward.

Soon everyone arrived at the center of the Black Desert.

The convoluted wind and sand were already blowing head-on, and as the wind and sand blew up, everyone's eyes were fascinated. At the beginning, they could barely move forward, but gradually they couldn't see the road ahead. !
under these circumstances.

Everyone felt a little hopeless.

Finally, after half a day of searching, I finally found a place where I could rest temporarily.

Then everyone hid behind the sand dunes and ate the dry food in their hands. The fat man couldn't help complaining: "Fuck, this place is too weird! The wind and sand can't stop, my eyes are about to be blown out, If things go on like this, let alone looking for Jingjue Ancient City, I am afraid that all of us will die on the way.”

"Hahaha, junior, I have reminded you a long time ago that you are not allowed to enter such a place cursed by the gods. But why do you not want to believe me!? Are you okay now?"

"Unfortunately, even if you regret it, it's already too late. We have already arrived in the Black Desert, so we can only walk along the road ahead. Otherwise, we will get lost faster." An Liman still laughed as he said.

"Old man, don't gloat. Now everyone is a grasshopper tied to a rope. If we can't run away, you will be unlucky too. When will this wind and sand stop?" Fatty Wang asked.

"It seems that it won't stop for a while. This is a place abandoned by the heavens. Therefore, we can only go forward against the wind and sand." An Liman said helplessly while nibbling on dry food.

If possible, he really didn't want to come in this damn place.

While everyone was resting, suddenly, a scream came from a distance: "Ah, no, help..."

With this voice came out.

Everyone subconsciously looked at the source of the sound, but Ye Haochu rushed over immediately.

Soon, they came to the back of a hill.

I only saw a young man in the archaeological team at this moment, half of his body had already sunk into the quicksand.

And those quicksands are still rolling.

If you don't rescue him quickly, I'm afraid he will be swallowed by quicksand.

After seeing this situation, Professor Chen hurriedly said: "Hurry up and save people!"

Hearing Professor Chen's words, the fat man wanted to save someone, but was grabbed by Hu Bayi first.

"Old Hu, let me go first and let me save someone!"

"Idiot, there is a quicksand area in front of you. If you go there, let alone saving people, even you will fall into it. No one will be able to move you!" Hu Bayi looked at the front and frowned. Said slightly.

After all, it is not difficult to see from the situation of that young man.

The quicksand area in front is quite dangerous, if you go there hastily, not only will you not be able to save anyone, but you will even have to fall into it.

Just when Hu Bayi was thinking of a way.

Ye Haochu was already walking forward following the footsteps that the young man had stepped on, and soon came to the quicksand area. There were no footprints in front of him. Obviously, you can't step there. If you step on it, you will end up like him Therefore, Ye Haochu directly took out the rope from the backpack, then threw it in front of the young man, and said at the same time: "You have grasped the rope, don't let go, I will pull you up."

"it is good"

The young man saw Ye Haochu as if he saw a savior.

Then he grasped the rope firmly, and waited until the young man grasped the rope.

Ye Haochu pulled suddenly, and the young man who was still stuck in the mud was dragged out abruptly. After seeing him out of trouble, the fat man came forward and said, "Old Ye, you are too awesome!" I admire you so much for being able to pull people out so easily, that’s the quicksand area! Once you’re stuck in it, it’s extremely difficult to get out, your strength is really too great.”

"The front should not be a quicksand area. I didn't use much strength just now, and he was pulled out. And if he was trapped in the quicksand, we would have no time to save him. Even if we were lucky enough to pull him out, those quicksands would It will also suffocate people." Ye Haochu looked not far away and said.

"It's not quicksand? What is that? In the desert, people will sink, it seems to be only quicksand!" The fat man said in a daze.

"That's right, in the desert, only quicksand can trap people, but what if they don't sink, but fall?" Ye Haochu said lightly.

"Fell down? Lao Ye, you mean, the bottom is empty?" Hu Bayi said at this moment.

"I'm just guessing, how did you fall?" Ye Haochu asked the young man.

"Just now I wanted to go for convenience, but whoever thought it was, I just came here, and I just fell into it. By the way, when I just fell, I felt as if I stepped on something, like a stone." The young man quickly explained.

"Stones? How could there be stones in the desert?"

Hu Bayi said something strange.

You know, when he joined the army, he had been to the desert.

I have never heard of how there are stones in the desert?
"That's right, it's true that stones don't form in the desert, but there may not be any. Don't you forget the stone tomb on the notebook? If I'm not wrong, this should be the stone tomb we're looking for !” Ye Haochu said directly.

"What Lao Ye said makes sense! Why didn't I think of it? The stone tomb, haha, then why are we still standing there? Everyone, hurry up and dig!" Fatty suddenly became interested.

He has always been very positive about baby.

And everyone followed him to the place where the accident just happened.

Then the fat man went down with a shovel and dug the sand to the side, and then he saw gravel inside, and there were some black spots on the stones. After seeing these things, someone in the archaeological team asked curiously Said: "What is the black spot on it? I don't think I've seen it before."

"If I'm not mistaken, these black spots should be traces of explosive explosion." Hu Bayi looked at the stone and said immediately.

"Dynamite? How could there be explosives in the desert? In this way, aren't all the tombs there destroyed?" Speaking of which, the professor still feels a little regretful. You know, his favorite thing is Explore history.

And this kind of stone tomb is unheard of.If you can check it out, it might be very useful for historical research.

But whoever imagined it was just blown up.

"The tombs inside should not be damaged. Judging from the traces of explosives on these stones, those who detonated them should be very professional, so they only exploded the stones. As for the tombs inside, there should be no problem." Hu Bayi He opened his mouth and explained.

When it comes to explosives, he is very familiar with them.

After all, since he joined the army, he has been playing with this kind of thing every day.

"What! No damage? If that's the case, let's go down and have a look. The historical value of this kind of stone tomb is very precious. If it can be recorded, then our trip will be even more rewarding." Then Professor Chen Hastily opened his mouth to suggest.

And hear this.

Hu Bayi also nodded and said: "Since the professor wants to go down, then we can go down and have a look, but I think it's better not to have any hope, after all, even the entrance to the tomb has been blasted, so the things inside , there will certainly be nothing left."

"No matter what, I have to go down and have a look." Professor Chen nodded firmly.

I have to say that although this old man is rigid, he is really serious about historical research.

Then everyone started digging.Soon, the hole has been cleared out.

Immediately afterwards, everyone in the team walked towards the stone tomb.
