The girl of the An family nodded, "Every year six to seven, eight or three months, there is water in this small river."

After the group crossed the river, they soon came to a deep ditch.

Below is a place that looks like a cave.

A few people descended along the slope of the ditch, and Xiao Yao soon saw that there were several vertically downward cave entrances. Below the cave entrances were deep and shady ditches, and there was a faint sound of running water.

"The water in here is all meltwater drawn from below the snow-capped mountains. The karez in our side is very powerful, and the water flows continuously throughout the year."

The girl of the An family said proudly.

"So this is the Karez."

Su Ying sighed.

Living in the water-rich Nanyang region since childhood, Su Ying had a hard time understanding the feelings of the people of the Northwest towards water.

However, when the bottom of the Karez is winding and deep, with no head in sight, and no idea where the canal leads, Su Ying was deeply shocked.

"By the way, girl, who built the karez here and where does it lead?"

Su Ying asked.

The An family girl was stunned for a while, and she tilted her head to think for a long time, but did not answer.

"Well, is this really me? Anyway... the canal and karez here have existed for a long time, and no one knows where the canal leads to."

Su Ying nodded and did not ask any further questions.

In the moonlight, Xiao Yao saw some vague steps beside the shaft of the Karez.

These steps were obviously excavated a long time ago, and after many years of weathering, they have become somewhat blurred, and people can no longer walk.

But the excavation of these steps is somewhat unusual in itself.

"These... How are karez wells maintained at ordinary times, do I need to go down to repair the canals?"

Xiao Yao asked.

Sister An shook her head, "No, the karez here hasn't changed much for so many years, and it's all by mistake.

Xiao Yao nodded, then bent down again, reached out and touched the soil on the ground, and still smelled it under his nose.

Su Ying asked from the side, "How did you find anything?"

Xiao Yao shook his head, "Not yet, but the karez here is quite old, I see the soil on the steps here, at least it's something from before the Tang Dynasty."

Su Ying was slightly surprised after hearing this, "Isn't it possible that the karez here has been used smoothly for more than a thousand years before Tang Dynasty?"

Xiao Yao nodded, "I'm afraid that under this karez, this culvert that doesn't know where it leads and how long it is, must be hiding a lot of secrets."

"However, our main purpose this time is the tomb of King Hami. If we can return safely from the tomb of King Hami, we will see if we have time and opportunity to go down to see what it is."

Su Ying nodded after listening.

Afterwards, Xiao Yao also took Aman's An's sister and Su Ying to get up and go back.

Early the next morning, Xiao Yao bid farewell to the old couple of the An family and set off from Yahu Cave.

From this moment on, Xiao Yao and his party have truly entered the Gobi Desert and headed towards the Devil City.

327? Mirage Ghost House Phantom

This content was first published on m.99wanban.com After coming out of Yahu Cave, Zhang Batou and Oman didn't know what to do next.

Xiao Yao had to sit in front of the walking tractor.

A wooden board was placed on the fenders of the tractor wheels, and several layers of cotton cloth were also padded. Although it was tattered, it could still seat people, which was equivalent to the co-pilot of the tractor.

Xiao Yao carefully compared the surrounding topography according to the contents of Bergman's diary.

Over the decades, the surrounding topography has undergone some changes.

Fortunately, these changes are not too big, and many iconic locations can still be identified.

There are some black and white photos in Bergman's travel notes, especially in the early stage of the trip. It can be seen that Bergman is in good spirits and took a lot of photos.

Xiao Yao relied on the contents of the travel notes and photos to carefully search for the way.

This way it's going to be slower.

After walking and stopping for almost half a day, I finally saw some ups and downs in the vast Gobi Desert, and some taller rocky mountains began to appear.

There are also dry rivers and some pebbles and gravels that can be seen vaguely on the ground.

The sun was fierce at noon, and although it was already autumn, it was still in the [-]s on the Gobi Desert.

Xiao Yao saw that Uncle Ming in the car was so dizzy that he couldn't hold it anymore, so he had to let Oman drive the tractor to the shadows on the edge of a dirt mountain.

Several people got out of the car, and each of them drank water happily.

Driving all the way, his mouth was full of sand, that is to say, Su Ying had foresight, An Jia sister loosened Su Ying's gauze in advance and covered her face, so that her mouth was not full of sand.

Lunch is...simple grilled naan with jerky, and fruit and dates from Yahudong.

The sun at noon was too hot, the water in the water tank of the hand-held tractor opened a mile or two, and Xiao Yao simply decided to take a rest.
