Chapter 7 Peacock River!
Faye Wong told everyone that it was hot during the day, so everyone would take a break and set out at night.
At this time, a team of camels slowly came to everyone. On the big camel was an old man about 50 years old.
When the old man saw everyone, he jumped off the camel's back and ran to everyone and said, "Are you going to the Taklama Desert for archaeology?"
Wang Feifei nodded and asked, "Are you?"
At this time, the first aid team took the lead and walked straight to everyone and quickly talked to Wang Feifei in French. Mr. Liu didn't understand at all.
After the man finished speaking, Faye Wong nodded and said to everyone, "At this time, everyone's guide into the desert. The golden ancient city is in the hinterland of the Taklama Desert. It is relatively far away without a camel team. This old man has led several expeditions into the Taklamakan Desert, and he has a great chance of winning."
After listening to this, the old man said with a smile, "Well, yeah, Taklama is translated into Mandarin, there is no entry and no exit. Without a good guide, you can get in and out. Although Liu Da Shao is a little old, Liu Da Shao is very comfortable."
As soon as he finished speaking, he briefly introduced himself. The old man's name was Karama. Liu Dashao didn't understand the language and culture of Xinjiang, and he didn't know what the name meant, but it sounded like Taklama's, and he felt that the old man was reliable from the bottom of his heart.
Karama has lived on the border of the Taklama Desert since he was a child. He knows this desert very well and has led countless expeditions in and out. It seems that this old man Kramar does not need a little money to move.
Time passed quickly. In a blink of an eye, it was night, and the temperature also dropped. Because the temperature difference in the desert was relatively large, I wore a short fight during the day, and I had to wrap myself in a cotton-padded robe at night.
Everyone ate something and brought the necessary items. One person rode a camel. The old man Karama rode a big camel and shouted, and the camel team headed for the Taklamakan Desert.
Under the starry sky, this camel team is driving slowly in the desert. Tonight's moon is very bright. The ancient building with only the roof buried in the desert is obliquely inserted in the sand. The dry poplar trees lie calmly on the yellow sand. Against the background of the stars, it looks particularly beautiful.
From time to time, an unnamed animal appeared on the dead branches of the poplar tree. As soon as Karama shouted, it spread around, and the passing place was depicted like a navigation map in the desert.
The sand dunes are like small pyramids, located in the desert. A breeze blows by, and the rolling yellow sand seems to be guided by something, rushing in one direction in an orderly manner.
Because the Golden Old City is located in the hinterland of the Taklama Desert, it can theoretically reach its destination whether it is forward, left or right.
However, for the sake of safety, everyone chose to go west, that is, to go around the Golden Ancient City along the Peacock River. Although it is time-consuming to walk in this way, it is not so easy to get lost with the guidance of the Peacock River. Of course, this is Karama's attention.
In a sense, the Peacock River is the origin of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions. In other words, it is difficult for a kingdom to exist without the Peacock River in the Taklamakan Desert.
From various archaeological documents, it can be seen that the main reason for the destruction of the once glorious ancient country is the lack of water resources.
It's midnight now, and the temperature is very low. There is already a thick layer of ice on the Peacock River, and there are countless dead poplar trees on the river. Seeing this situation, you can think about the scenery of the Peacock River in the past.
The desert at night is very beautiful, which makes people feel like they are in a fantasy. Even the old man Kramar who ate in the Taklamakan desert sighed, raised his whip and sang Xinjiang folk songs while waving.
Listening to Karama sing, Fan Debiao also sings a lot. He learns from the old man Karama's tune and hums. He wants to sing but can't speak the language of Xinjiang.
Looking at other people, I was so happy that I was crazy. I sat on the camel and screamed, playing with Faye Wong as the core character. Looking at Faye Wong's smile in the moonlight was quite pure, it was just two people in the meeting.
From time to time, I passed a small sand dune, and two small insects stringed on it. The traces drawn by it were very beautiful. Several people took out their digital cameras and shone on them. The flash made Liu Dashao a little dazzled.
Liu Dashao slapped the camel next to Fan Debiao and Old Karama, and the three of them drove side by side.
Liu Dashao said to the old man Kramar, "The scenery of the Taklamakan Desert is really beautiful. I've never been here before, I thought it was a piece of yellow sand, dead-dead, but I didn't expect to see so much now."
The old man Krarma said, "The beauty of this desert is certain. These are the visual feast given to everyone by Mr. Hu Da, but this is not the Taklama Desert. The real Taklama hasn't entered yet. There is no water in the Peacock River in Taklama."
Hearing the old man Kramer say that there was no water in Taklama, Mr. Liu was a little worried about everyone's water source, so he quickly asked whether there was enough water in Karama.
Old man Karama said, "You must have enough water. Don't worry, little comrade. Even if there is an accident and there is no water, my camel team and I have been in this desert for so many years, and we can find the dark river if necessary."
Karama said that it was the same thing. Many ancient countries were buried in the ground by sand, and the rivers of those ancient countries naturally slept under the sand, thus forming an underground river.
This camel is a necessary tool to find the dark river. Coupled with the old man Kram's decades of experience, the water problem should not be big.
Everyone drove in the desert until after one o'clock in the evening. Wang Feifei and the others were happy all night and were tired. They lay on the camel's back and fell asleep. Liu Dashao originally asked Fan Debiao and himself to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the desert, but Fan Debiao seemed to be a realist and did not appreciate it. He said to him that people should follow the rules of nature. Lv, when it comes to bed at night, he sleeps on the camel front, and sleeps when he falls asleep. Maybe he is dreaming of a flower girl.
This group of camels are used to this road, so they don't need Karama to know where to go. At this time, Karama closed her eyes and didn't know whether she was closing her eyes or falling asleep.
Liu Dashao saw that he was quite stylish and learned to do it, but when he closed his eyes for less than a minute, he lay on the camel quilt and fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept. The camel team suddenly stopped, and Liu Dashao almost fell off the camel's back in a hurry.
Fan Debiao's back, just heard a "Oh", he fell down from the camel and cursed his mother in pain.
At this time, Wang Feifei and others also woke up. When they saw Fan Debiao's bird appearance, they couldn't help laughing.
