After more than a hundred years of excavation, almost all of the 1,400 Xixia noble tombs were hollowed out.
Because the tombs were very dense and buried layer upon layer, tomb thieves opened up each tomb chamber, and the robber holes were spread in all directions.
Bones can be seen in several tombs, some of which are tomb owners and some of which are tomb robbers.
Some tomb robbers killed each other because of their wealth, and there were also some who were guilty of thieves and frightened themselves to death.
At the corner of a tomb passage, there were two tomb robbers who had been dead for decades.
Next to them was a mummy wearing a red robe, carrying a sword and a divine arm bow.
Perhaps the two tomb robbers were tricked by other tomb robbers when they used ropes to pull the mummy out of the coffin and take out the visible objects.
The fat man picked up the long sword and illuminated it with a torch.
The sword was covered in rust, but its sharpness remained intact.
Da Jinya said: "The swords buried with Xixia tombs are called Xia people's swords, and there are also divine arm bows.
Historical records say that a shot of three hundred steps can be used to drill holes.
The armor is made of cold forging, smooth and shiny, and the crossbow arrows are not strong."
"I said: "The tomb robbers in the past didn't want these things, but they are worth a few now, but I can't carry it anymore, I'm just carrying a can of dry food, and I'm almost exhausted."
Seeing the two tomb robbers each carrying a long package, the fat man thought there were hidden weapons, but he opened them and saw that they were two Russian-made weapons.
The 1891 Mosingana rifle is also called Shui Lianzhu among the people, describing it as a fast rifle.
In the past, a rapid-fire gun could be exchanged for four camels, which was already very valuable.
People who come to the desert to rob graves are worried that their guns will get into the sand, so they often wrap them in cloth, but without applying gun oil, one of the gun bolts can no longer be pulled.
The other rifle was still usable, but it only had five rounds of ammunition.
The fat man put the rifle on his back, dug around the dead man's body for a long time, and took out a pistol.
It was a homemade pistol commonly known as a "single shot".
It was made by civilian gunsmiths.
It was of average power and could only fire one round and reload one round.
It had a slow rate of fire and was very easy to misfire.
It used to be used in the Mongolian desert and the Loess Plateau.
This is a weapon commonly used by bandits.
I checked the barrel and hammer of the gun.
They were completely rusted and could not be used at all.
The divine arm bow next to the mummy, called the divine arm bow, was actually a crossbow arrow.
It had been well preserved over the past few hundred years.
I asked Xue Liyang to bring the Divine Arm Bow, just in case.
Xueli Yang said: "We have limited water and food, so we cannot stay here for too long.
If we still can't find water in the next two or three days, we must go south."
I said: "We have been delayed for a few days on the way.
Are you afraid that other tomb robbers will find the underground palace first?"
Xue Liyang said: "Moving Taoist Taoist ancestral sacred objects is important, but it is not worth anyone's life."
I agree with what Xue Liyang said.
There are more than 1,400 mural brick tombs.
It is really difficult to see them.
Everyone rested for a while, left the mural brick tombs, and walked west from Kanergou.
It was getting dark, the clouds were overcast, and the moon was dark.
Moving forward, we dug a sand ditch and spent the night on the spot.
Early the next morning, we continued on our way.
After walking for two days, I looked around and saw endless stretches of undulating sand dunes, long stretches of yellow sand, desolate and majestic, but I never found a river.
I didn't think even we could find it.

Everyone saw this situation. , have given up hope and are ready to go south out of the desert.
After trekking in the desert for two consecutive days, Fatty, Xueli Yang and I could barely manage it.
The big gold tooth was really bad.
He sat down on the sand dune and couldn't get up no matter how hard he was pulled.
He was so blinded by the sun that he couldn't stand it.
As for hallucinations and nonsense, he must have said that there are three suns in the sky.
Da Jinya's eyes were straightened, and he said desperately: "Fat Master, we are finished."
The fat man said: "You have to finish it yourself, I am the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning."
Da Jinya said: "God thinks that I, Da Jinya, can't die fast enough and let three suns bask in me?"
The fat man said: "What are you talking about?
There will be three suns in the sky."
He looked up, lowered his head and said, "I have to drink water too.
I am dry and thirsty.
There are stars in front of my eyes, and everything I see is double." son" Xueli Yang said to me: "If we don't turn around, the situation will be very dangerous.
We should return to Dashazan as soon as possible, refill water at the jeep, and head to the desert road in the southwest."
I thought it was time to retreat, but when I looked up, I was surprised.
There was a thin, translucent cloud in the sky, with three suns in it, emitting a dazzling halo at the same time.
Legend has it that in ancient times, nine The sun rises at the same time, and the grass and trees are all withered.
This cannot be taken seriously.
Who doesn't know that "there are no two days in the sky" Xue Liyang said: "It was a sunray.
Due to the refraction of light and mist, three suns appeared in the sky at the same time."
I said, "I've never seen a sundog, but if the sun is dizzy and the wind blows, I'm afraid there will be a big sandstorm, so I have to find a place to hide."
The fat man looked around: "Everywhere you look is desert.
Is there any place to hide from the wind and sand?"
I said: "There is nothing nearby.
You can only avoid it by hiding in Kanergou.
Let's go quickly before the wind and sand arrive."
The sun-dog spectacle lasted for less than ten minutes.
The sun's halo shrank and the bright sun turned into an egg yolk, which was a precursor to the arrival of a strong sandstorm.
The Mu Us Desert is different from other major deserts.
It was rich in water and grass a thousand years ago.
Later, it was eroded by quicksand.
Several sand belts were connected into one.
The desert became larger and larger.
So far, the total area has exceeded 40,000 square kilometers.
There are fixed and semi-fixed edges.
Sandy land, as well as desert grassland landforms, have loose sand layers in deep depressions, which are affected by wind and form easily movable quicksand.
We are located in the windy sand belt, where moving sand dunes are densely packed.
When encountering a strong sandstorm, there is no place to hide.
We should not have found a broken jeep in Jingbian Fort in order to buy time, rashly entered the desert, and caught up with this There was a strong sandstorm and I fled to the Xixia noble tombs in Kanergou.
Although I could escape the wind and sand, under normal circumstances, it would take at least two full days, which is equivalent to walking south out of the desert.
In this case, it may not be possible.
The place has been buried by wind and sand Da Jinya lay down on his back and said, "Master Hu, I can't survive.
I'm thirsty and tired.
I really can't walk anymore."

I asked Da Jinya to get up quickly.
This is not the time to pretend to be dead.
When the wind and sand come, you will really be buried alive.
Da Jinya said: "I'm almost finished anyway.
If you ask me to go forward, I might as well let the wind and sand bury me."
The fat man said, "If you don't want to live anymore, I'll break this gold tooth off for you.
I'll miss you and take it out to play with from time to time."
Da Jinya was surprised: "Is it possible to leave a whole body for my brother?"
The fat man said: "I don't really want you.
When I get tired of playing with him, I will give it to your family and put it on a board as an offering."
As he spoke, he rolled up his arms and sleeves and came forward to break off his teeth.
Da Jinya knew that the fat man was really going to do it, so he said quickly: "Don't do it.
To tell you the truth, I really can't let go of Beijing's iced sweet-scented osmanthus and sour plum soup.
I used ice cubes to cool it down, making me feel cold and irritated."
Damn it, if you serve such a big bowl, no one will be able to drink it until they die.
Instead of being a mummy here, you have to go back."
The group had no choice but to turn around and walk back.
If they were lucky, they might be able to return to the Xixia noble tombs in Kanergou to escape the wind and sand.
After walking a few steps, the fat man stopped walking and stared straight up at the sky.
I said: "You don't shed tears even if you don't see the coffin.
You have to wait until a strong wind and sand blow to unbolt your legs and you can't walk quickly.
What are you looking at the sky for?"
The fat man pointed upward: "Did you see it?
What is that?"
I looked in the direction he pointed and saw a small black spot high in the sky, hanging motionless in the sky.
When Big Gold Tooth looked up, he also opened his mouth and couldn't close it.
UFOs caught up with the flying saucer craze in those years.
We had heard that UFOs were called UFOs, but we didn't expect to encounter them in the desert.
As early as In the 1960s and 1970s, there were many such situations.
At that time, they were not called UFOs, but were usually thought to be enemy reconnaissance aircraft.
Some ancient rock paintings in the desert actually depict such strange things.
In ancient times, it was called Xingcha, which is a raft used to cross the sea, and Xingcha is a ship in the sky.
That is not UFO:
