Chapter 133: Can you be a human being?
"Old Hei, I'll give you a task."
Withdrawing his gaze towards the underground lake, Chen Ziyan looked at the boundless darkness for a while and then suddenly said these words .
This made the black glasses next to him subconsciously think of something clever, and asked tentatively: "Master Chen, can I refuse?"
"Of course, it's all voluntary." Chen Ziyan was very natural said.
When Black Glasses heard this, he murmured even more in his heart. He was 100% sure that Chen Ziyan was definitely holding back his bad intentions.
"How about Mr. Chen, please tell me in detail, and I'll think about it." After thinking about it, Black Glasses thought it would be better to ask clearly first.
Chen Ziyan looked at him and smiled and said: "You have always been here, and you know that there is a high possibility that this waterway can be walked, so..."
"So..." Black Glasses hesitated After a moment, he expressed his guess: "So, I'm going back home now?"
He thought that Chen Ziyan wanted to expel him after his role was replaced.
"What are you thinking!" Chen Ziyan glanced at this guy, how could he let this guy go so easily.
Looking at the black glasses, he didn’t realize what he wanted to express. Chen Ziyan simply told the truth: “Actually, it’s nothing. It’s just that 80% of the waterway goes downstream, and it’s difficult to walk when you come back, so I thought Let you take the camel team overland to save you from having to rely on the 11th Road to come back."
Just be a human being!
Black Glasses understood this time, and his eyes became resentful.
Emotions don’t want to go back against the flow of effort, so I want to go there with the camel caravan to make the return journey smoother.
This was a good plan for Chen Ziyan, but it was different for him. He simply bore all the risks of crossing the Black Desert by himself.
Of course, he is barely familiar with the road and is not afraid of the dangers, but it is lonely to be on the road alone.
But then he realized that although Chen Ziyan's behavior was a bit inappropriate, it still gave him great trust.
You must know that it is basically difficult to go upstream in a fast-flowing underground river, let alone such a long distance.
So the camel caravan is their retreat. If there is a problem on their side, it will be more difficult for them to leave.
Anyone who has experienced something like the Eleventh Road will know, especially in a place like the desert where one needs to maintain state of mind at all times, it is the last option when there is no other choice.
The reaction of the black glasses was naturally seen by Chen Ziyan, but he did not rush to ask for the answer, but said very understandingly: "Don't rush to answer me, you can think about it carefully. Think.”
It’s better to do this kind of thing voluntarily. If you force it, it can easily be self-defeating.
Of course, Chen Ziyan would not place all his hopes on Black Glasses, but he still had second-hand preparations.
Considering that the situation was getting more and more complicated, and that many people were waiting at the starting point, Chen Ziyan never thought about returning the same way.
In this regard, he had two plans. One was to let Black Glasses lead the camel team to join them, and then take the same road that Black Glasses left and leave the desert elsewhere.
The other plan is to just go with the flow. After finishing the business, go directly down the Ziduan River and enter the Tarim River, and then find a place to land. Black Glasses didn't know what Chen Ziyan was thinking. He was now thinking about whether he should agree to Chen Ziyan's request.
If he had a choice, of course he would also like to go directly to Jingjue Ancient City along the underground river in the cool underground, but now it seems that this ship has no place for him.
But if he leads the camel team alone to the ancient city of Jingjue by land, even though it feels like entrusting him with a heavy responsibility, Black Glasses is somewhat unwilling to do so.
At this moment, Shirley Yang came over and said to Chen Ziyan: "Mr. Chen, Uncle Chen's work has been finished, we can go back."
"Okay." Chen Ziyan agreed. After making a sound, he looked towards the sarcophagus.
Only when he saw this did he realize that Professor Chen and his group had put together the broken coffin lid at some point, and wrapped the lid and coffin tightly with tape. Look, It seemed that he wanted to preserve the body in the sarcophagus in this way.
Feeling Chen Ziyan's gaze, Professor Chen over there chuckled and explained: "This sarcophagus and the body of Prince Gumo inside are of extremely high value. Our current conditions are limited and we can only use Store it this way for the time being. When I get back, I will report it as soon as possible and ask the superiors to send someone to transport it back." "Then this matter will be troublesome, Professor." For this kind of confrontation. Chen Ziyan would never go against his own beneficial suggestions.
Regardless of who transports it back, as the first discoverer of this thing, he will gain the most benefits.
Of course, the premise is that the two corpses are still lifelike by then, but Chen Ziyan feels that this may not be a hope.
The fact that the body of Prince Gumo has been preserved to this day is probably due to the liquid in the coffin. The reason why there has been no change now is probably because the liquid in the body has not been completely lost.
But it will take at least about a month until the next batch of teams arrives. Even in this humid environment, I am afraid it will not be able to survive that long.
The most likely thing is that when the next batch of arrivals arrive, they will see two rotting corpses, or even two white bones.
But he didn't mean to remind him. Who can say for sure until that moment.
Now that Professor Chen and others have completed their work, everyone did not stay here any longer and began to go up the rope ladder to the stone chamber one by one.
After everyone arrived in the stone room, Chen Ziyan said to Wang Kaixuan: "Fat man, it's not convenient for you to carry things. Go up and find Lao Hu first."
This fat man's latest period I spent a lot of time hanging out with the big gold tooth, so I had a preliminary understanding of the value of antiques, so I knew that my backpack was now worth a lot of money, so I even walked awkwardly, for fear that I would not be able to sell it for a good price if I bumped into it.
Seeing his appearance, Chen Ziyan knew that it was useless to let him stay here, so he simply let the guy go back first, which would just in time allow Hu Bayi to understand the following situation.
"Okay, listen to Mr. Chen." Wang Kaixuan was eager to go back like this.
Anyway, there is no danger here, and he is not good at finding agencies. He might as well go back and take stock of the harvest from this trip, so as to know what kind of things in Prince Gumo's tomb can be sold.
Chen Ziyan had told them about this a long time ago. As a team under a private museum, the cultural relics they collected were divided into two types, one that could be sold, and the other that could not be sold. It can only be placed in a museum.
Wang Kaixuan didn't know how to distinguish this point. He just studied the prices of antiques. Hu Bayi did have a rough idea, so he wanted to let Hu Bayi distinguish between one and two.
