The yellow sand in the sky blew into the darkness, and wherever the wind and sand went, swallowing everything.

The whole world has become like the end of the world.

The people hiding under the canvas were filled with their ears, only the roaring sound of wind and the sound of sand whipping the canvas.

The canvas was also piqued by the strong wind, shaking constantly, making a dull sound of huh.

Fortunately, Li Tieniu and the others pressed it, otherwise the canvas would have been scraped away long ago.

The person hiding below has no other way, so he can only endure it silently and endure the torture of wind and sand.

I guess most people are constantly praying in their hearts at this moment.

Once nature shows its power, it is really not something that humans can compete with.

I don’t know how long it took, nor did I know if it was dark or white outside. Finally, the whistling sound in my ears gradually faded away, but everyone’s minds still kept roaring.

"It seems that the wind and sand are getting smaller." Li Tieniu's loud voice suddenly rang, his voice a little dull.

Then a rolling voice came: "Oh my god, my whole body hurts. Liuzi, are there any pain pills?"

When did Li Tieniu take medicine? However, his body was hit by the canvas continuously by the wind and sand. He finally couldn't bear it.

The circle of people around them also untied the ropes on their bodies, making them even more uncomfortable.

Huh, the canvas was swept into the air by the strong wind, and the two people who had no time to untie the rope were taken away together.

Although the wind and sand outside subsided, it was still very strong.

The strong wind blew the sand and whipped it on its body, and everyone hurriedly turned their backs.

Although the sky outside was dim, it was still a little bright. Liu Qingshan looked at his watch and it was about 7:30, which should be in the morning.

A sandstorm lasted all night.

Liu Qingshan then hugged and started to name one by one. Fortunately, there were many of them.

The two uncles from the camel caravan also hugged and began to look for their camels.

After calling for a while, a group of camels finally stood up in a sand nest. They were shaking their bodies, covered with yellow sand, probably buried in the sand.

It seems that Liu Qingshan is right. Animals in the desert naturally have ways to resist wind and sand.

As the wind and sand became smaller and smaller, everyone finally dared to stand up and look around, feeling that the scenery they saw was very different from yesterday.

A strong wind and sand are enough to change the terrain of the desert.

I checked my diet again, but fortunately, I was concentrated under the canvas yesterday and did not suffer any losses. It was a blessing in disguise.

"Oh, I almost got buried in the desert. I'll go see the camel."

Xiao Liuzi was still thinking about camels and walked towards the camel caravan along the wind, and his small body was blown to the point of being tilted.

"Sixth son, come back first." Liu Qingshan was really worried about a strong wind that would blow her into the sky.

"Brother, come quickly, there are people under the sand over there!" Xiao Liuzi suddenly shouted.

Liu Qingshan was also shocked and hurriedly ran forward.

But then he remembered that he had just counted the number of people, and there were only a few.

The distance was very close, and he ran to it in a few steps. Xiao Liuzi squatted there, and had already pulled the sand with his little hands: "Brother, it seems to be withering."

Liu Qingshan also leaned over to check it out. It was indeed a withered statue. Judging from the facial contours, it should be a Buddha statue.

It wouldn't be a strong wind that blows out the treasure buried here, right?

Liu Qingshan was overjoyed and pulled around with his hands a few more times. Sure enough, he felt something very different from the sand.

"Professor Xia, Mr. Lu, you all come and take a look. There is something underneath!" Liu Qingshan shouted.

Everyone didn't care about the wind and sand that had not stopped yet, and they all ran over. There were many people and strong forces, and soon they discovered more and more cultural relics below.

There are Buddha statues, although buried in the yellow sand, but they are not damaged at all.

There are also prints that have been passed through thousands of years, but they are still colorful and the paintings are lifelike.

There are also rolls of ancient books, all of which are contained in sacks, and even the sacks are not decayed at all, let alone the waterproof oil paper inside.

More of them are some porcelain and pottery, as well as various daily necessities, which are dazzling.

"This must be the cultural relics buried by Kozlov back then!"

Mr. Lu said excitedly that in just one hour, they found hundreds of cultural relics, and many buried under them. On such a large scale, it would definitely not be bad.

Unexpectedly, they would be blessed in disguise when a strong wind broke out.

The location where the cultural relics were discovered was basically below the place where they were stationed. Even if they were excavated, they would not have been excavated, so they would definitely miss it.

It’s really a blessing to lose your horse.

"Everyone has the meal first, and after the meal, they have the strength to do it!" Liu Qingshan started to arrange things after being excited.

As the sun emerged, the wind and sand completely disappeared. Everyone didn't eat last night and were really hungry.

"Hahaha, eat, even though you have this spiritual food, you still have to eat it." Professor Xia smiled and finally it was worth the trip.

Others returned to their base to enjoy breakfast, but there was also an expert in Xixia literature, Professor Li, who sat there and refused to get up, and seemed to have not heard Liu Qingshan's greeting.

"Professor Li, it's time to eat!" Liu Qingshan shouted again, but saw that Professor Li was still motionless.

"Old Li, what did you find?" Professor Xia and others also surrounded him.

Professor Li was holding a volume of ancient books in his hand, reading them hungrily, and his whole body was completely immersed in the book.

Professor Xia stood behind Professor Li, looked at the ancient books in his hand, and then his thin body couldn't help but tremble because he saw that the words on the ancient books were actually written in Chinese and Western Xia languages.

This is equivalent to a dictionary. With this book, you can completely identify the Xixia text.

"Haha, a major discovery, Lao Li, Lao Lu, we have found the key to studying Xixia literature!" Professor Xia laughed to the sky.

The laughter finally made Professor Li wake up. He carefully closed the ancient book and saw that the cover was also written in two words.

The Chinese characters above are "The Pearl of the Palm of the Fan and Han Dynasty".

There is no doubt that this is equivalent to an ancient dictionary.

Several professors were excited for a while before they were called to have a meal. During the meal, the professor Li said excitedly:

"Most of the Western Xia literature is in Russia. Now, with this treasure in the palm, we can also write our own comparison dictionary without having to go there to see their faces."

Professor Xia also nodded repeatedly and bite the cake hard: "I think there must be many documents buried under it, and we must transport them to Lanzhou as soon as possible."

"Don't it be transported to the capital?" Professor Li and Mr. Lu were dissatisfied. This is a matter of principle and must be explained clearly.

Professor Xia still insisted: "We have a special Xixia Museum in this province, and it is so close to us."

Mr. Lu immediately retorted: "Old Xia, it would be wrong for you to say this. If we look at the current administrative divisions, this place is still in the territory of Inner Mongolia, it will not be yours."

Well, the old gentlemen didn't eat any food, so they made arguing first before talking.

Cough, Liu Qingshan coughed lightly: "Dear professors, I am the sponsor of this inspection. And according to the initial agreement, although the cultural relics found belong to the country, they must be displayed in my museum for exhibition."

The eyes of several professors projected towards him together, which made Liu Qingshan feel very stressed.

Professor Xia sighed and chose to give up.

It was Liu Qingshan and his team who saved them, otherwise their master and apprentice would have been...

Mr. Lu and Professor Li shook their heads helplessly, and Professor Li looked at Liu Qingshan solemnly:

"Mr. Liu, I have been to your museum. It's really good, but it seems that I can't display so many cultural relics, right?"

Liu Qingshan's mouth curled up slightly: "I'm going to build another separate museum next to the original museum. Don't worry, several professors will definitely not stop everyone from studying."

Well, that's all.

Everyone nodded together and then continued to eat.

Even so, their enthusiasm for discovery has not diminished at all.

These old scholars care about these cultural relics themselves, not who they belong to.

To put it in a sentence: they are precious legacy left by their ancestors.

Everyone worked hard all day, but the cultural relics buried under the sand were like a huge treasure house, which seemed to have no end.

When Liu Qingshan saw it, he quickly discussed with everyone: Should I ship out a batch first?

Several professors also agreed. Looking at this situation, there are still many below. It is a good idea to transport it out in batches.

So the team divided into two groups: one of them stayed and continued to excavate, and the other, under the leadership of Liu Qingshan, they first used camel cavalry to rush the cultural relics to the edge of the desert, and the small village where the car team stationed.

Then, I will return with the supplies.

"It is best to add some camels. Some of these withered images are stone-like and too heavy." Professor Xia also suggested.

Liu Qingshan also nodded and agreed that these cultural relics should be transported with extra caution, and it is indeed necessary to carry a large number of camels.

The main reason is that the car cannot be driven in, otherwise it will save much trouble.

Organize the camel caravan, just like those Buddha statues, one camel can carry at most two, one on one side.

And they have discovered hundreds of them.

Liu Qingshan led Li Tieniu and followed the camel caravan back, leaving Li Tie here to be responsible for the guard.

A week later, Liu Qingshan led the large army back, and the number of camels in the team had increased to fifty or sixty.

Even so, I went back and forth twice, and finally I finally transported this batch of cultural relics out completely.

It took two months in total, and winter was almost coming outside.

The expedition team finally evacuated Heishui City and returned to the world. From the desert to the small village stationed, everyone had a sense of being a different world.
Chapter completed!
