MTL - Hello 1983-Chapter 1079 There's something down there!

  There is something under Chapter 1079!

  It is amazing to see the same kind in this deserted desert.

   It's just that the few people Liu Qingshan saw looked a little miserable.

  They hid under a half-collapsed ancient tower, avoiding the hot sun.

   They were all unkempt, lying there, looking like dead people.

  Hearing the movement, one of them took a long time to raise his head and looked towards Liu Qingshan and the others. A hoarse voice came intermittently: "Save... water, water."

  Enthusiastic, Li Tieniu took out the mineral water bottle from his pocket, unscrewed the cap, brought it to the man's mouth, and poured it gently into his mouth.

   And Liu Qingshan looked at this group of people carefully, and saw that among them, there was also a white-haired old man who seemed to be in a coma.

   There was a woman lying beside the old man. Looking at it like that, she was also delirious.

  Liu Qingshan is basically sure that this group of people is not dangerous, and they are not the kind of robbers who come here to make a fortune.

  So he greeted Li Tie: "Go and get Liu Zi, and save people first."

   Then he also took out the water bottle and gave these people water one by one.

  The amount does not need to be too much, take two small sips for each person first. People who are severely dehydrated should not replenish water too quickly, and have to take it slowly.

  Xiao Liuzi soon arrived on a camel, first took out the pills for clearing away the plague and relieving summer heat, stuffed a pill into these people's mouths, and then felt their pulses one by one.

   Not long after, the young man who first called for help was able to sit up. Although his voice was still hoarse, he was able to speak:

   "Thank you, thank you."

  Liu Qingshan waved his hand: "Who are you all?"

   "We are from the Archeology Department of Lanzhou University, and we came here to investigate with our teacher, Professor Xia." The young man told the story intermittently.

  Basically the same as Liu Qingshan's judgment, this is an archaeological team composed of college students and professors.

  Come to the Heishui City ruins, of course, to study the Xixia culture.

  They also hired a camel team. After two days of inspection here, the leader of the camel team said that sandstorms are frequent this season and asked to evacuate.

   After all, Professor Xia refused to do it. As a result, conflicts arose between the two parties.

  The people in the camel team simply left half of the camels and supplies, and then chose to leave.

  Professor Xia is also stubborn, so he chose to stay and investigate.

   As a result, these laymen, no one managed the camel caravan, and those camels ran away.

  The saddest thing is that food and drink are also taken away by camels, so it has become like this.

   Fortunately, I met Liu Qingshan and his group, otherwise, there might be a few more corpses in the sand sea.

  Little Six over there has also been diagnosed and treated, she clapped her little hands: "It's nothing serious, it's just caused by lack of water and hunger."

   While talking, the group of people all woke up after taking pills and drinking water.

  Professor Xia struggled to sit up and nodded to Liu Qingshan: "Thank you for your help, where did you come to investigate?"

   At this time, the large troops behind also caught up.

   "Old Xia, is that you?" Mr. Lu rushed over and squatted in front of that Professor Xia.

   "Old Lu, it's you guys, that's great." Professor Xia hugged Mr. Lu's arm, his eyes were a little moist with excitement.

  But the tears did not flow out in the end, probably because the body is really dehydrated.

  Liu Qingshan is also completely relieved this time: it will be easy if he is an acquaintance.

  So I settled down here, soaked some pancakes in water, and after softening, I gave these people more than half a bowl, and added some water one after another, and they were basically able to stand up for a walk.

  After the catastrophe, Professor Xia also expressed his gratitude to Liu Qingshan and others again. His thin face was also full of self-blame: "This time I blame me for being too stubborn, and I almost hurt these students."

  Liu Qingshan really admires this old man. This kind of persistent spirit of exploration is what a scientist needs most.

  After a night of rest and breakfast the next day, Professor Xia and his students recovered almost.

  So the soldiers joined together and went to Heishui City not far away for an investigation.

  Thousands of years of wind and sand, the entire city has basically been swallowed up by the desert, only some relatively tall buildings still have some traces.

   Entering the city, you can still see some traces of excavation.

   But according to Professor Xia: He came here before, and led people to carry out excavations in the city, but apart from ruins, nothing of value was found.

  I don’t know how many times I have been sieved here, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has dug three feet into the ground.

   "The worst thing is that Kozlov!"

  Professor Xia slammed the crutch in his hand, and sank deep into the sand, "That guy looted all the pagodas outside the city, but he couldn't take them away, and buried them underground."

   "So that if we want to study Xixia culture, we have to go to Maozi to see their faces!"

  Professor’s granddaughter is Xia Fang. She held onto Grandpa’s arm: “It would be great if we could find those buried cultural relics. It is said that Kozlov only took a small part away.”

  Everyone looked around, there was a vast sea of ​​sand, where could they find it?

  In the desert, the wind blows and the sand moves, and the topography will change completely within a few years. Therefore, it is really difficult to find the cultural relics that Kozlov buried.

   Fortunately, Liu Qingshan has Liu Shiquan as a guide, after all, he discovered some clues unintentionally back then.

   What is certain is that the place of burial must be outside the city.

   There must be no specific coordinates. After wandering around for a long time, Liu Shiquan determined a rough search range with a tall tower in the distance as a reference.

  Looking at the tens of meters of sand dunes and the endless yellow sand, a sense of powerlessness came to my heart.

   "Where do I start digging?"

  Li Tieniu was carrying a big shovel, feeling a little helpless.

  Even if he is extremely powerful, he is still a little discouraged in the face of Sand Mountain.

  Liu Qingshan was also a little helpless. The gap between this place and his imagination was a bit big. He thought that if he dug inch by inch, he could find it no matter what.

   Now it seems that the idea is a bit too naive, unless you have the ability to turn the desert upside down.

  Liu Qingshan finally knew why Kozlov could not find the cultural relics he had buried when he returned for the third time.

  But it’s all here, if you don’t try it, you’re really unwilling.

  So Liu Qingshan spat twice into the palm of his hand, and waved the shovel in his hand.

  A puff of yellow sand is flying, but for the entire dune, it is only equivalent to a grain of sand by the sea.

  As the sun rose, the temperature also rose rapidly. Everyone was sweating profusely, and the water in their bodies was also rapidly consumed.

   "It can't go on like this, let's work while it's cool in the morning and evening."

   Liu Shiquan suggested that if this continues, the water they brought will not last for a few days.

  Liu Qingshan could only shove the shovel into the sand: "It's quite a fool, it seems it's really not easy!"

  As a result, the shovel suddenly made a clanging sound, and the feeling in the hand was obviously different from digging sand.

   "There's something down there!" Liu Qingshan roared excitedly.

  The people around were also pleasantly surprised, and they worked together to clean up the yellow sand on the surface.

   Gradually, something buried in the sand was revealed. Professor Xia and the others went up to check it out, and they were disappointed immediately. It was just an ordinary brick and stone.

   Xixia believes in Buddhism, so there are many pagodas outside the city. Such bricks and stones are obviously used to build pagodas.

  Liu Qingshan was also disappointed, he waved his hand: "Let's rest first."

  In the face of nature, manpower sometimes appears so insignificant.

  Everyone hid under a pagoda and survived the hottest time of noon.

   "Brother, my camel is a bit disobedient." The little six came up to Liu Qingshan.

  Liu Qingshan lay flat on the ground, closed his eyes, reached out and groped for Xiao Liuzi's head, and rubbed it with his hands:

   "Why is it disobedient, isn't it very close to you?"

   "It must be upset, I can feel it." Little Six muttered.

   "Little genius doctor, you are really good. You know the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of animals." Xia Fang teased Little Six.

  Although everyone is convinced of Xiaoliuzi's medical skills, it is normal to be a little naive considering that she is still a child after all.

  Liu Qingshan sat up abruptly: "Sixth son, tell me, what's going on?"

  Xiao Liuzi dragged Liu Qingshan to the resting place of the camel team.

  The dozen or so camels were all lying on the sand, chewing cud leisurely in their mouths.

  Only one of them was standing, occasionally digging a few times in the sand with its hooves.

  Seeing Little Six coming, the big camel turned its big lips and made a purring sound.

  Liu Qingshan blinked his eyes twice, and asked the uncle in charge of the camel caravan, "Will there be any situation, such as a sandstorm or something?"

The old man with a vicissitudes of life also nodded solemnly: "This camel has been around for many years. It is old and slippery, and the rabbit is hard to catch when it is old. Maybe it really feels dangerous, why don't we retreat first? "

  Another uncle shook his head: "It will take at least three days to go out. If there is a sandstorm on the way, it will be even more dangerous. Fortunately, there is some shelter here."

  Liu Qingshan also had to be cautious: "Uncle, let's be careful, no matter what, you must manage the camel caravan well."

  The two uncles nodded worriedly, then looked up at the sky.

   Liu Qingshan's senses are sharp, and he seems to feel that there is a little more restlessness in the air.

  Wait until the afternoon, the camels in the camel team all showed unsteady emotions.

  The sky in the northwest also seems to be a little different, the sun has become a little blurred.

   "Sandstorm, sandstorm is coming!" Liu Shiquan also panicked.

  The entire expedition team immediately became tense.

   "Everyone, get ready!" Liu Qingshan also realized the seriousness of the problem, and organized everyone to take action according to the plan.

  All the materials on the camel were unloaded.

  Everyone put on thick clothes and huddled under a large canvas.

  Li Tieniu and others beside him directly wrapped the edge of the canvas around their bodies to fix it in this way.

  Seeing that Little Six was still going out, Liu Qingshan dragged her back. The sound of howling wind and the sound of sand hitting the canvas could already be heard outside. Just like Little Six, if you go out, you have to be swept away by the strong wind.

   "Brother, I want to go and see the camels, are they not in danger?" Xiao Liuzi said.

  Liu Qingshan held her tightly in his arms: "Don't worry, in the desert, camels know how to protect themselves better than us."

  Their voices were gradually suppressed by the sound of the huge wind and sand.

  A mighty sandstorm swept over with an unstoppable force.
