Daomu Biji

In the early morning of the next day, the convoy set off again.

Leaving this small village called Lancuo, and deeper into the Gobi, there is an uninhabited area with nothing on the map, that is to say, there is no basic road that was rolled by the car, under the wheels, for decades The land, road conditions, or even worse conditions that no one has even reached for hundreds of years, so-called off-road vehicles, are also trembling on such roads, because you do n’t know if there will be stones or deep under the sand and dust of the Gobi pit.And the main Dolma had to rely on wind-eroded rocks and river valleys to find the sign of the forward, which forced the convoy to approach the steep slopes near those rocks.

The scorching sun and extreme turbulence, the people who were very interested at the beginning were crushed almost immediately, one after another basked in the sun, and at first there were some people racing, and later they all lined up obediently.

In the so-called exploration and geological exploration activities, the activities in the desert Gobi are completely different from the jungle or ocean exploration. There are a lot of available resources in the ocean and jungle, that is, as long as you have the skills to survive, You can survive for a long time in these two places.But the Gobi Desert is quite the opposite. Here, there is only sand. Even if you have three heads and six arms, you can't find anything in the desert that can sustain life on your own. This is what almost all Gobi Deserts are called " Cause of death.And Anin, they are the first time to enter this kind of place, lack of experience, this setback is foreseeable.

I was also dazed by the sun, watching the yellow dust billowing outside, had already retreated, but yesterday the message from Lord Dolma to me and the oil bottle made me force myself to make up my mind.Thinking of what happened last night, I felt another unspeakable pressure.

It is among you.

Who is it?

In Wen Jin's notes, he mentioned many times that he has been evading the search for "it" for the past 20 years. What is it?What makes me care is, why use "it" instead of "he"?Is this "it" among us, not human?Really uncomfortable speculation.

When we first entered the no-man's route, we followed a dry river.The Qaidam Basin was originally a place for rivers to gather. Most of the rivers originated from the snow peaks of Tanggula and Kunlun, but in the past ten years climate change, many large rivers have turned underground, let alone small river channels, we are at the bottom of the river bed After driving, it was found that there are half-height wormwood everywhere. It is estimated that no water has passed through for two or three years. In a few years, this river will also disappear.

After waiting for three days to reach the end of the river channel, the Gobi will become a desert, but the desert in the Qaidam Basin is not large. They are like spots one by one, dotted in the center of the basin, and the general herders will not enter the desert, because inside The devil lives, and there is no pasture for cattle and sheep.Lord Dolma said that bypassing the desert was the salt mountain pass where she and Wen Jin's team were separated. There was a large strange stone there, just like a huge city gate, so it was easy to find.Further in, it is the place where deserts, seas, and salt marshes meet. These things devour each other. The landscape changes every day, and the most experienced guides dare not go in.

However, Anin brought GPS with them, and they did not worry about it, although Tashi kept reminding them that the machine would break.Especially in the Gobi with a temperature difference of more than 50 degrees between day and night.

After driving along the river for two days, there was a strong wind. If it is in the desert, this wind is definitely a murderous trade wind. Fortunately, on the Gobi, it can only raise a large mass of yellow sand between our car and the car. The distance had to be increased by more than one hundred meters, the visibility was almost zero, the speed of the car was slow to the minimum standard, and after driving for half a day under the wind, the car and the driver reached the limit at the same time, nothing could be seen, and nothing could be heard. , The radio can't be contacted, it can't be turned on anymore.

The Caucasus didn't give up, but afterwards, we couldn't know if the car was moving or where it was going. He had to stop and turned to the side to face the wind to prevent sand and dust from entering the engine, waiting for the wind to pass.

The car was almost shaken by the wind, the windows were rattling with sand, and we didn't know the situation of other cars. This feeling is really frightening.I looked out of the window, it was surging black, you can know that there is thick sand outside, not dark, but there is no way.

After waiting for more than ten minutes in the car, the wind suddenly increased again, and I felt the whole car vibrated and seemed to be flying.

The Caucasian showed a look of fear. He looked at me and said, "Have you ever encountered this kind of thing before?"

I said in my heart how it might be. Seeing his panic, I comforted him and said that the weight of Land Rover can definitely protect us, but just after I finished speaking, there was a loud bang, and something seemed to hit Land Rover. Our The car took a shock and the sirens rang.

I thought there was a car in the back that could not see the road hitting us, so I put my eyes on the window, and the Caucasians also came to see it.

The black outside is thicker than before, but because the sand is solid, it will leave an outline when it is scratched. If there is a car, you may also be able to see the headlights of the car.

However, I could n’t see any car lights outside. I was wondering. The Caucasians suddenly yelled, grabbed me and looked back. When I turned my head, I saw the dust outside the window on the other side of us. Knowing when, a strange shadow appeared.

The black shadow outside the car window is blurry, but it is obviously close to the car window, and it seems to be a figure, but under such a gust of wind, how can someone walk outside, is this not death?

We did n’t have time to be surprised, the shadow moved. He seemed to be groping the car window, trying to find a way to open it, but Land Rover ’s tightness was excellent. He did n’t find a gap after touching it for a long time, and then we saw a picture His face stuck to the car window.The lights in the car illuminated his goggles.

I found out at once that it was the kind of goggles equipped by Aning. They were relieved immediately, and he said who was the bastard, what did he do when he got off the bus with such a strong wind?Did he hit our car just now?

The people outside the window also saw us in the car and started knocking on the window and pointing at the door. It seemed to be anxious to ask us to go down. I looked at the weather outside and said that I wouldn't do it!

Before thinking about it, suddenly a shadow of a person with goggles appeared on the other side of the car window. The man was striking the light and knocking on the car window, both sides hurriedly.

I felt bad, and something seemed to be wrong. Maybe they wanted to ask us to go down to help, so they also found the cloak and goggles to wear. The Caucasian took out two miner's lamps, twisted them and handed them to me.

The two of us took a deep breath and vigorously opened the door, and a burst of sand and dust rushed in.Although I was ready, I was blown back into the car with my head and pressed the door against the door without closing the door. The second time I ran out of breast-feeding strength and lowered my head before drilling out and being outside 'S support dragged out.The Caucasian who got off the train on the other side was immediately scratched to the ground, and his screams blew to a dozen meters away.All around was the sound of wind blowing the eardrum and the friction of dust in the wind. This sound was not very loud, but it overshadowed all other sounds, including our breathing.

As soon as my foot fell on the outside Gobi, I felt something was wrong. How did the ground rise?I bowed hard to avoid being blown down by the wind. I used a miner's lamp to illuminate my car. At first glance, I was dumbfounded. I fucked. The car's wheels were half gone. Part of it has not reached the sand under the river bed, and the car is still sinking slowly. It seems to be a quicksand bed.No wonder the car won't work anymore.

Without a car, we are done.I panicked and hurried up to pick up the car, but when I stepped on the edge of the car, there was a force pulling my foot down, like a vortex in the water, I quickly jumped back.At this time, the person who knocked on our window just a moment ago pulled me, and made a difficult gesture for me, saying that the car was no longer possible. We left here, or we would fall.

He was tightly wrapped and his mouth was wrapped in a cloak. I knew he was talking at the same time, but I could n’t hear anything. I did n’t know who he was, but what he gestured was true.So I nodded and asked him where to go with a gesture, he pointed to our rear car cover, let me take things, and then made a move forward with both hands together.

This is a sign language for diving, which means to search. It seems that if many people in the car do not get off, they must not know that the car has entered the quicksand bed. We must inform them all the way, otherwise these Land Rover will become their value one. More than one million iron coffins.

I nodded at the man, made an OK gesture, and opened the back of the car to take out my equipment, almost bowed, and completed this simple thing like a hunchback.At this point, my ears had been numb, there seemed to be no sound around, there was silence, it was a bit like watching a silent film, a three-dimensional silent film.

When I closed the car cover, I saw that the back cover of our car was sunken, and it seemed to have been wiped off by a behemoth. I remembered the vibrations in the car, and I took photos with the miner's lamp around, but I couldn't see anything. Only the shadow of the Caucasian urging me to go.

I calmed down and said that maybe it was a scraped stone, so I curled up with the shadows and walked back.

I walked more than 80 meters, and I feel that more than 80 meters, maybe far more than that, we saw the headlights of the next car.The car had tilted its head, we went up, jumped on the head, and found that the people inside had run out.We found them more than a dozen meters behind the car. A man had his goggles off. His eyes were full of sand and screamed in pain. We formed a wind wall and wrapped his eyes with a towel.

We helped him up, and continued to move forward, and soon stopped a car, three guys in the car were playing cards, we jumped on the roof for a long time, they did not respond, and finally I broke their glass with stones At this time, half of the car was already under the river bed.

After dragging them out, the wind was so strong that even the stones on the ground were blown up, and bullet-like hard blocks swept in front of our eyes from time to time, and they were finished with a hit.One person had his goggles hit by a flying stone, and his nose was full of blood. Some people made a gesture saying no, and it would be dangerous to walk again. We had to temporarily stop searching and lay down to avoid this burst of stones.

Several people took out the hard stuff from the equipment. I took out a stainless steel lunch box and put it in my face. The Caucasian took out his "Bible", but before it was set, the wind rolled up the pages. All of Zizi's paper was shredded into rolls of paper, and there was only one piece of black cover left in his hand.

I laughed at him and shouted, "You must be pirated!" Before I finished, a stone hit my lunch box and Mars was splashing.The lunch box was already under the force of the wind, and I couldn't grasp it at once, and it was wiped out with a whirl, and disappeared.

I was scared to death. If it hit my head, it would be bloody, and I could only hold my head tightly and close to the ground.

At this time, suddenly all around, a hot flashing thing flew past our side, we were all startled, and I said, fuck, what is so fast.Before I could react, three bright lights flashed in front of me, flying towards us and passing by us.Then I smelled a familiar smell, that is the smell of high temperature burning of magnesium, and I immediately knew what the flash was-that was a signal flare wrapped in the wind.

I couldn't help but be furious, and I said which king is the bastard and which pig is putting the signal flare at the upper wind in this weather. I am afraid that the wind won't die. Do we want to burn us?Thousands of high-temperature fireballs with a speed of more than 160 kilometers per hour, I am afraid that they will be killed.

But when I thought about it, I knew it was wrong. This group of people is well-trained. How could it be messy?In the expedition, launching a signal bomb is a communication method that is only used in an emergency, because its propagation range is too wide, and the ammunition consumption is large, generally only when it encounters a huge danger, or when the communication object is too far Will be used.Now under such harsh conditions, they even used signal flares. That should be what happened.

I glanced at the people around me, and they all had the same thoughts as me, and I made a gesture to make the three uninjured people stand up, and we have to go there to see.If they need help, or someone is injured, there will be no helpers.

This is not a job to do, or a personal heroism. I was hit by a rock as soon as I stood up. We all took the bag back to the front as a shield, adjusted the compass, and walked in the direction of the flare. go with.At the same time, beware of the sudden appearance of signal flare.

After walking for a while, we did n’t know if we were going in a wrong direction, but we saw three cars surrounded by more than a hundred meters away, but there was no one in the center of the car and we had left.We searched around the car and found no people, but the equipment in the car was not taken away.

The car was sinking. We opened the back cover of the car and said that at least we should rescue the thing. Just when we wanted to climb into the car, a signal flickered and flew away from us far away.At this flash, we found that the place where the flare was fired became on our left, not far from us.It seems that our direction is indeed wrong.Or the person launching is moving.

We carried our equipment, although it was very tired, but the wind did not easily blow us, and we were able to stabilize our pace and walk to the place where the flare was launched.Walking, walking, we were suddenly surprised to see that the silhouette of a giant appeared in the rolling sand in front.

In the gusty wind, we bowed our bodies, helped each other through the sand and fog, looked at the huge silhouette, were all very surprised, and suddenly forgot whether we should move on.

The Caucasian on the side gestured and asked me what it was.This guy has a habitual thinking, that is, he is now in China, then I am Chinese, and I should ask me if I encounter anything in China.

I shook my head to stop him from being stupid, and I didn't have a heart in my heart.

Generally speaking, there is no doubt that if it is not a middle-aged Altman less than two hundred meters in front of us, it should be a huge mountain rock, which anyone can immediately think of, but We were here on the way to Pingchuan, and we did not see such a tall mountain.

Where did this mountain rock come from?Could it be that we are collectively distracted and have n’t seen it?I said in my heart that I knew it was impossible. First of all, the most important thing is that we are looking for this kind of rock all the way, because we need a cool place to rest. The shady side of this rock is a must-have place for any expedition.On the Gobi, there are not many such isolated rocks, so we will pay attention if there are any.

But now we can't control so much. Such a big mountain rock is a good place to shelter from the wind. Those signal flares may inform us that we have found a place to shelter from the wind.

I began to take the lead to run to the mountain rock, and soon I obviously felt that the closer to the rock, the smaller the wind, and the more energy I needed. The light of the miner's lamp is flashing.

I was ecstatic, rushing towards the light, facing the gust of wind, rushing deep and shallow.However, after running for a long time, the light did not seem to be approaching me at all. The fuck was so far away. I was thinking that while I was exhausted, I slowed down, greeted the people on the side, etc., I felt something was wrong.

But when I looked back, I couldn't help being dumbfounded. There were people around me. There was only rolling sand and endless darkness.(To be continued, if you want to know the future, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
