His name is Xie Jun, and he is very famous in the circle of antiques, and he has quite high attainments in map.

I've saved his life, and there's a feeling of gratitude. Xie Jun will definitely help me.

Thinking of this, I quickly took out my mobile phone and called him. He warmly exchanged greetings with me. After I explained the situation, Xie Jun readily agreed, without asking for more.

This is the cleverness of his life.

"Little brother, who can I call?"

I didn't care about Pockmarked Li. Instead, I took some pictures and sent them to Xie Jun.

"Don't worry, we'll see the result later."

I looked at Pockmarked Li and said that the waiting time was very long. Pockmarked Li couldn't sit down anymore. He kept pacing back and forth, making my eyes faint.

"Little brother, I seem to be a little out of control!" Said Pockmarked Li.

The matter of robbing the tomb was put forward by Pockmarked Li. He said it as if I could control it.

Finally, Xie Jun called.

"Boss Zhang, this should be a map of the Han Dynasty, but many things have become blurred after years of baptism."

Xie Jun gasped for breath, but Pockmarked Li was in a hurry.

"You mean the point!"

Pockmarked Li broke his tongue when one of them couldn't help it. I drew back at his neck and apologized to Xie Jun.

Xie Jun heard Li Mazi's words and was slightly shocked. Then he smiled to express his understanding and slowly opened his mouth: "the map should be marked with ancient Loulan, but Loulan rarely has such a large lake, so I guess the ancient tomb should be located in Lop Nur."

Lop Nur?

I and Pockmarked Li looked at each other. They couldn't believe that what Xie Jun said was true or false.

"Are you sure?" I asked.

"Boss Zhang, what is drawn on the map is not blank but yellow sand. There is a small totem beside it. Although it is incomplete, it can also be seen that this is the landmark totem of Loulan ancient country dry land fish. Although Loulan belongs to the thirty-six countries of the western regions, its territory is not broad, and there are only a few lakes. The lake on this map is in the shape of a human ear, just like Lop Nur... "

After hanging up, I looked at Pockmarked Li again.

"What do you mean, little brother?" Said Pockmarked Li with a sly smile.

"Nonsense!"

What's the point? Since you have a place, let's move!

Lop Nur, also known as the sea of death, is located in the southeast of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, just like the human ear.

In ancient times, Lop Nur was the most beautiful landscape on the Silk Road, and there was a prosperous ancient land of Loulan. Merchants from the western regions would stop to drink water and stay. But I don't know why. In a short night, Loulan ancient country sank into the yellow sand in full view of the public, and Lop Nur became dry and a no man's land.

Since then, the legends of terror have spread in Lop Nur.

For example, there are dry land fish that eat people. They will eat the passers-by as empty ladles and spit out the bones like watermelon seeds.

For example, there are big gold treasures of Loulan ancient country. I don't know how many tomb robbers died on the way of treasure hunting.

Another example is why Pengjiamu disappeared. He found the big secret in Lop Nur.

Xuanzang, a great monk of the Tang Dynasty, traveled to the west to learn scriptures. When he passed by, he also wrote, "there are many evil spirits in the Shahe River. If you encounter them, you will die."

When Li Mazi and I learned that the ancient tomb of the Han Dynasty was in Lop Nur, they were naturally itchy and ignored the legend of Lop Nur. They immediately began to pack and prepare to go to Lop Nur.

Although it's mysterious and weird, it doesn't affect human's heart of exploration, so the periphery of Lop Nur has now become a scenic spot. Li Ma and I decided to go to Lop Nur first. If it's true, we can find a way to deliver some equipment.

Then my trip to Lop Nur with Pockmarked Li set out like this. For the sake of safety, we didn't report the tour group, but chose to go alone.

After landing at the airport in Xinjiang, we transferred to bus to Lop Nur.

Xinjiang has always had a mysterious color in my eyes. This land once gave birth to the world-famous thirty-six countries in the western regions. I thought that there would definitely be an unusual experience this time!

When I was halfway there, the words of two local people attracted my attention.

They were very excited as if something big had happened.

I immediately put my ear to him and asked, "what are you talking about, fellow townsman?"

As soon as the two locals saw my strange face, they immediately showed their vigilance.

I feel speechless for a while. I'm so upright that I won't be regarded as a bad man, will I? Now he explained: "I'm here to visit Lop Nur. I love this land since I was a child. I finally have the chance to come here. I hope that two old brothers can point out where I can have fun."

At this point, I took a box of cigarettes out of my pocket and handed them.

Two people saw that I was sincere and looked at the smoke carefully. One of the old uncles said, "Lop Nur is a mysterious place. You are looking for the right place to play here."Nonsense, of course, I know that Lop Nur is mysterious. I also know that Lop Nur has an ancient tomb of the Han Dynasty!

"We were just talking about a big news story. Lop Nur has water again."

I was stunned as soon as he said it. Lop Nur has been dry for many years, how can it suddenly have water?

The eldest uncle saw my face shocked and said proudly, "don't believe me, my family lives beside Lop Nur. I saw the water in Lop Nur with my own eyes. The water in Lop Nur is crystal clear and there are fish. It must be Lord ALA's spirit."

People in Xinjiang believe in Allah, just like many people in mainland China believe in Taoism and Buddhism. Allah is similar to Sakyamuni in Buddhism, and is the supreme god of the region.

However, there was a doubt in my heart.

How could Lop Nur have water and fish for no reason? Is it Allah's revelation?

But I don't believe that Allah is real. If something goes wrong, there will be demons. It seems that Lop Nur has not only treasures of the Han Dynasty, but also other things!

I continued to talk with the two people. Through in-depth conversation, I learned that they were father and son. The old one was Ali mu, and the young one was Da mo. their family lived near Lop Nur.

They are the indigenous people here. Their ancestors have lived here for thousands of years. Their family witnessed the most prosperous period of Lop Nur and witnessed the drying up of Lop Nur.

Now, the family has witnessed another miracle. Is this a blessing or a curse?

I talked with them all the way, and finally I was familiar with them. They warmly invited me to their home.

This is my chance. The aborigines must know a lot about Lop Nur. Even I can follow these aborigines to explore Lop Nur. Why not?

As I was getting out of the car, I would shake Pockmarked Li in my sleep and tell him what ARIM and his son said.

"Little brother, do you think what they said is true?"

Pockmarked Li was shocked, but soon became suspicious.

"It's true or not. We'll know if we go!" I said.
