"Hehe, you two brothers should take more care of you from now on!" Chen Xiao said with a smile.
Afterwards, Chen Xiao and Ma San kept chatting, but they were silent all the time. Although Chen Xiao had just come to the rescue, this could not make him completely relax his vigilance. As a senior tomb robber, he knew deeply
How important is vigilance to yourself? If there is any slightest sign of trouble, you will immediately get out of the way.
However, after more than ten hours passed, Fangcai quickly relaxed his vigilance towards Chen Xiao and slowly integrated Chen Xiao into his circle.
When we arrived in Lanzhou, it was already early the next morning.
Half of the people had dropped off one after another along the way, and only about ten people were left when they arrived at the destination. Ma San smiled and said: "Brother Chen, let's find a hotel for the night, we have to continue our journey tomorrow!"
"
"Okay!" Chen Xiao nodded immediately.
It was very cold in the early morning in Lanzhou, and there was still unmelted ice and snow on the road. Suddenly arriving in the cold northwest, Chen Xiao felt a little nostalgic for the warm Dazhou. And Tang Yan, I don’t know where this girl is now, I don’t know
Is she still looking for herself? In such a cold weather, I really hope this girl gives up searching.
The three of them found a hotel and stayed in it. It was a three-person room with three simple beds. Just now they fell asleep with Ma San. Chen Xiao washed up a little and then lay down on the bed with his clothes on and covered with quilts.
.There is heating in the small hotel, so you can feel warm while sleeping, although the price is a bit more expensive.
I slept until noon of the next day.
Ma Sanhe just went to buy some thick military coats. Just now he handed one to Chen Xiao and said, "Brother Chen, I gave you one by the way. Otherwise, people in the northwest can really freeze to death!"
"Thank you..." Chen Xiao nodded, he didn't expect to bring one for himself just now.
A few people packed up and immediately went out to take the bus.
…
Lanzhou Railway Station.
"Sister Mingxue, there is good news!" After Tang Yan made a call at a public phone booth, she immediately laughed in surprise. Mingxue's face turned red from the cold, and she covered her mouth with her hands and blew on the heater.
He asked curiously: "What's wrong? What makes you so happy?"
"I just called my mother and she said there is news about Chen Xiao!" Tang Yan said excitedly.
"Chen Xiao? Ah! Where is Chen Xiao?" Ming Xue asked hurriedly.
"I didn't say it. I just said that Chen Xiao went back to Dazhou and vaguely heard that he was going to Dunhuang!" Tang Yan said excitedly.
"So Chen Xiao has left Xiangxi." Ming Xue was stunned and said: "He should have gone to the northwest as mentioned by Saint Chang Tian. Dunhuang is an ancient city, and there should be many secrets. In this case
, let’s go too!”
"Well, let's just take the train there!" Tang Yan said excitedly.
"Yeah!" Ming Xue nodded immediately.
The two of them hurriedly bought tickets for the soft sleeper, while Chen Xiao, Ma San, and the other three had already boarded the bus to Dunhuang.
Dunhuang is a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Jiuquan City. It is a national historical and cultural city in China. Dun means big; Huang means Sheng. Dunhuang is located on the Silk Road, an important transportation route from ancient China to the Western Regions, Central Asia and Europe.
, once had prosperous commercial activities. It is famous for the "Dunhuang Grottoes" and "Dunhuang Murals". It is the location of the world heritage Mogao Grottoes and the Yumen Pass and Yang Pass on the border of the Han Great Wall.
Therefore, this is the starting point for exploring the decline of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. From here all the way to the west, the once prosperous Austro-Hungarian Empire, from Europe in the west to Dunhuang in the east, is almost included in its territory. Now, the Austro-Hungarian Empire is
It has long since become a piece of history and a myth that no longer exists.
After more than ten hours of running, all the way to the northwest, the weather was even colder, approaching sub-zero temperatures. Chen Xiao looked at the desolate desert around him in the car. Suddenly, he felt that his heart was open and his heart was throbbing.
, the red lotus in his body actually slowly moved his body. Could it be that his level was about to improve? Before Chen Xiao could react, the red lotus disappeared instantly.
Every time Honglian appears automatically is because Chen Xiao has new insights, and the possibility of promotion often arises at this time. However, why did Honglian appear inexplicably this time? Chen Xiao was a little curious.
After arriving at the destination, I just got a dilapidated Mitsubishi off-road vehicle.
"Brother Chen, what's next is our real adventure!" Ma San chuckled and said, "Let's do it together. If we make money later, the three of us will share it together. You will definitely not lose your share!"
"Actually, I've had this intention for a long time!" Chen Xiao smiled. Of course, he was not doing it for money, but to be able to discover some clues about the past from some ancient tombs in Dunhuang. What is archeology? That's to find out.
Understand what happened in history. Chen Xiao came to Dunhuang, firstly, to avoid being hunted by the Sky Dog, and secondly, to explore the secret of the demise of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
"Okay, let's go!" Ma San nodded.
The three of them put on green military coats and drove a dilapidated but sturdy Mitsubishi off-road vehicle towards the desert. Ma San and Cai seemed to have already had a plan, but Chen Xiao didn't know about it. It can be seen from this that the two of them
Still somewhat cautious towards Chen Xiao.
The car drove into the desert. There were large and small stones scattered on the ground. The car was very bumpy. If it were not an off-road vehicle with a high terrain like Mitsubishi, it would really get stuck in such a desert. The passability of the off-road vehicle
This is his advantage. Chen Xiao held a cigarette in his mouth and looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window. The desert is endless. In this barren land, a few birds flying occasionally can be regarded as the only life in this desert.
After walking for a few hours, Ma San finally began to tell Chen Xiao the truth: "Brother Chen, to tell you the truth, we do have a big plan this time. The last time we came here to visit, we found a large tomb.
And judging from the situation, it seems to be the tomb of a person from the Western Regions, probably with a history of thousands of years. Hehe..."
"Then how did you know there was a treasure inside?" Chen Xiao asked curiously.
"Well..." Ma San grinned and said, "We got some of this from inside last time."
Chen Xiao was stunned. It turned out to be a golden gold coin with a Westerner's face on it. The handwriting was a little blurry and it was not clear which country's language it was. Chen Xiao touched it and said: "This is a gold coin.
?”
"That's right!" Ma San nodded and said: "From my professional perspective, this should be the tomb of a certain nobleman in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which was prosperous at that time. I did an appraisal and someone bought my gold coin for 100,000 yuan.
, I didn’t sell it. Hey, you think, there must be a lot of these things in this tomb. We will be rich by then!"
When Chen Xiao heard this, he became even more interested. He did not expect that this time he came out so smoothly. Not only did he not encounter the pursuit of the heavenly dog, but he also happened to encounter the tomb of a noble. This made Chen Xiao a little bit secretive.
Hi. It seems that I have found the right time to go out this time.
Along the way, the car ran wildly. The cold wind blew over the desert, and the unmelted snow made the temperature of the entire desert drop to an extreme. After a while, it snowed again on the desert. When the wind blew, snow covered the sky.
, can’t even see the way forward clearly.
Just now he complained: "Fuck, it's snowing so heavily, and it was still sunny just now!"
"The weather in the desert is changeable." Ma San smiled and said, "Brother, drive slowly, we are not in a hurry."
The car slowed down.
After Tang Yan, Ming Xue and others got off the train, they searched for traces of Chen Xiao in Dunhuang City like headless flies. Ming Xue frowned and said: "Yan'er, we can't search like this, we have to search with a purpose.
!”
"Then...how should we find it?" Tang Yan asked curiously.
"You and I will act separately!" Ming Xue said hurriedly: "You go to the front desk of each hotel and ask, I will ask in the store on the street. Chen Xiao will either stay in the hotel or leave, these are the only two possibilities!
"
"Okay!" Tang Yan nodded immediately.
Soon, Mingxue asked for Chen Xiao’s information from a car rental agency and learned that Chen Xiao and two other people rented a car and went to the desert. Mingxue was stunned: “It’s strange, Chen Xiao went to the desert.
What are you doing? Could it be?"
Thinking of this, Ming Xue immediately contacted Tang Yan. The two of them hurriedly rented a car and headed straight towards the desert without any preparation. It was snowing in the desert at this time, and it was basically snowing when they entered.
They couldn't even see the road clearly, but the two of them were eager to find Chen Xiao, so they rushed into the desert desperately.
And just after the two of them rushed into the desert, a figure quietly appeared at the car dealership where they had just rented a car. This person was none other than Tiangu. After the last operation that sent several third-level disciples failed, Tiangu realized that
I'm afraid Chen Xiao's strength may be somewhat different.
Promotion, so he decided to go out personally again. In order to find the whereabouts of Chen Xiao, he simply stared at these two women. These two women were Chen Xiao's favorite women. He believed that as long as he followed them, he would be able to
Find traces of Chen Xiao.
So, a group of people with different agendas entered this desolate desert. The wealth contained in this desert attracted many people to come here. However, how many people were buried in this desert.
During the Silk Road, how many caravans' wealth was buried along it, and how many unknown and strange things happened. Some people say that there may be countless demons hidden in this desolate desert; others say that this area
The boundless desert must be a place cursed by God. It is like the Bermuda Triangle in the United States. How many bizarre things have happened in the past? And no one can explain it clearly, and no one can tell it clearly.
There was heavy snow in the sky and the boundless desert. The speed of the off-road vehicle was getting slower and slower, and the road ahead could not be seen clearly.
