Chapter 224: Snake Marsh Ghost City (Part 2) The First Rain

At that moment, I was vaguely thinking that I was going to die, and I had already accepted my destiny in my heart. I said death was like this, and that was not bad.

I was so confused, I did n’t know how long this blurred state lasted. Slowly, I felt as if something was tapping my face. This feeling was very far away, but it was clear little by little. stand up.

Then consciousness began to recover, and I gradually regained consciousness.At first it was only a faint feeling that the body was back, and then when the consciousness began to sober, I gradually felt the surroundings.

The first thing I felt was cold, very cold, walking all the way in the Devil City, the mental depression and the low clouds made people very bored, and the coolness around them was particularly comfortable, as if immersed in a bathtub with ice water .

Then I found that the feeling of chapped lips was gone, the lips were cool, as if a cold thing was drilling into my mouth.I took a lick, took another lick, took another lick, and found that it turned out to be water!

Is someone saving me!I was mad and happy in my heart. At this point my body had reacted. I sucked desperately and moved my lips with my greatest strength. Little by little, I felt a cold start to enter my internal organs.

After drinking the water, I fell asleep again. At the moment I lost consciousness, I seemed to hear a few familiar voices talking. I couldn't hear clearly, and I didn't have the strength to pay attention. I instantly lost consciousness again.

Waking up again, I felt like I had slept for a long time, all kinds of consciousness came back together, hearing, touch, my strength began to recover, the consciousness became more and more sober, and finally I opened my eyes.

The first thing that caught my eye was a big, rough face, very familiar, and smirked at me.

When I saw this face, I immediately felt something was wrong, and I couldn't figure out why I felt this way.Who is this?I closed my eyes and thought for a while, searching the faces of the Tibetan drivers. Is that the one who opened 876?No.The one who drives the waterwheel?Nor is it.

After thinking about it, I couldn't figure out who this person was in the team, and then I was a sensation, and immediately realized why, right, this is not the person in the team, this is ... eh?Isn't this face Fat Wang?

My head tightened, huh?Fat Wang?How could he appear here?impossible?He has returned to Beijing.

Am I dreaming?Illusion?

Opening his eyes again, it was still the familiar fat face, and the full face of Hawthorn, who was a little older than when he was in Beijing, just stared at me so closer.

I closed my eyes again, and it didn't feel normal, right or wrong, it couldn't be Wang Fatzi, even if I dreamed, I wouldn't dream of him.

I gritted my teeth hard and opened my eyes for the third time. At this time, my brain was already very clear. At first glance, it was indeed Wang Fatzi. He lit a cigarette and turned his head to say something behind him.My ears are still unclear, and I can't hear what he is talking about. Then, I saw another person leaning over his head and was very familiar. It turned out to be Pan Zi.

What's wrong, I frowned, and said, "Did I not enter the Gobi at all, or was it in Hangzhou?"Is everything before me a dream?

A lot of memories came up when we recalled the events we encountered. We were hit by sandstorms, cars broke down, people were missing, shipwrecks embedded in the mound ... everything was very real, and it was absolutely impossible to dream.

At this time, my ears were restored to hearing, and I heard Pan Zi say: "Little Three, how are you feeling?"

I bowed hard on my back and wanted to sit up. Pan Zi came up to help me.I sat up and took a breath, and saw the surroundings. It seemed like a cave with a campfire in it. I saw several sleeping bags and equipment thrown around. It was dark outside. It was clearly night.

At the same time, I saw the stuffy oil bottle sitting on the edge of the campfire, cooking something, while Aning was lying in a sleeping bag on the other side, and had not yet awakened.

I gradually realized that I was not dreaming."What's going on?" I massaged my temples and asked Pan Zi, "Why are you here, am I dreaming? Am I dead?"

"It's not dead, it's almost dead." The fat man said on the edge. "If it weren't for your fat man and my sharp eyes, I wouldn't be able to see this thing, then you are already stinking."

I watched the fat man playing with a few coins, and I knew it was the sign of Aning, but I still couldn't figure it out.

"Then why are you here?" I wondered.

"We have been following your team." Pan Zidao pointed to the dull oil bottle. "You don't know. In fact, after you entered the Gobi, the team of the third grandfather followed immediately. Every one of you camp, this little brother If you leave a mark to guide us, we will keep the gap with you one stop, always behind. "

"What?" I didn't understand Pan Zi at first, "Mark? Behind us ... he ..."

Pan Zidao: "This is Sanye's strategy. This younger brother and the black blind are all arranged by Sanye and the foreigner in order to be mixed in the team. Because Sanye said that this is the point and wanted to understand Jude's test. The real purpose is no longer possible. He can only use this method, just like Judeka ’s practice, to get inside to understand the situation. I did n’t expect you to mix in. I knew you would get it if you asked him directly. ”

I ’m still a little confused. It took me a long time to understand Pan Zi ’s words: "Wait, wait, what, my third uncle? Are you saying that all of my three uncles are planned? Then ... you?"

"We were ready in Golmud, and our people in Dunhuang have been preparing for almost half a month. As soon as your team set off, we set off afterwards. At that time, this little brother left a message to tell us that you were in the team The third grandfather was also taken aback. You are true, little third grandpa. Did n’t the third grandpa tell you not to stop this muddy water? Why are you still here? "

I took a hard breath and suddenly felt powerless. I said, I said I really did n’t expect this time, then ... that black glasses came all the way to take care of me ... it seemed to be my uncle ’s face ...

Pan Zi continued: "You are inside, the third man has to worry about your safety, so let the black blinds point you. This time the rehearsal is very big, Jude Kao still makes a difference, thinking this time to get rid of the third man Well, I did n’t expect that we had planned for a long time. "

"What about my third uncle?" I looked around, not seeing the third uncle's shadow.

"Sanye is behind us and has a little difference. This time we have a lot of people. It's hard to keep track. Wang Wangzi and I are pioneers. We open the way in front and follow you all the way. Then we leave a mark to Sanye along the way. , I just did n’t expect you to have an accident when you get here. "

At this time, my thinking became clear, and I remembered it at once. When I had a long conversation with the stagnant oil bottle that night, he said that he was on my side, so I do n’t have to worry about it.This turned out to be the plan of the third uncle.

This, I really didn't think about this layer. It seems that the old fox is really an old fox, and fighting with the three uncles, I am really not qualified.

"Fortunately, your life is big, we have been following you, or you are already dried." The fat man on the edge said, "I want to do this line only because of your physique. I think you should really be upset if you go back." Small business. "

I asked Pan Zi: "Why is he here too?"

Pan Zi said that Changsha's guys and experts have all gone to other people's homes. Now Sanye has brought a batch of newcomers, and the experience is not enough, so he was invited to support the scene, which is also the old price.

The fat man said: "Why? Are you still looking down on me? Tell you, you came back from Lao Tzu."

I quickly waved my hand, and my heart suddenly settled down. In the end, the uncle's people were like family members, and they were my own people. I didn't have to be vigilant in everything.And I'm used to working with these people, knowing their skills, the happiest thing is that the oil bottle is really on our side, then everything is fine.

Just now a fat man was feeding me water. I gradually recovered my strength and took a few sips by myself. They would not let me drink more, saying that they would slowly replenish water.

I watched Anin not responding, and I didn't know what happened, so I asked Pan Zi if she had any problems.

Pan Zidao said: "You can rest assured that your physical fitness is better than yours. You have woke up once and now you have eaten something and fell asleep. This is not a desert. You are just dehydrated and comatose. You are not sunburned. Just sleep more. "

Pan Zi teased me, probably because I saw that I and Aning were both in disorganized clothes, and I didn't have the strength to refute him, so I ignored it.Although the body is a little weak at this time, the human spirit is already quite good. I got up and ate something and asked what hole it was and how they found us at the time.

Pan Zi told me that it was still in Devil City, and it was in a cave in a rock mountain, which was discovered by a fat man.After something happened at that time, Zhaxi escaped to the place where the car broke down. After we waited a long time and did not come out, Zhaxi thought that neither Ning nor I would look at the Arabian rock pile. Now we do n’t know that we were killed. Still lost.

The dull oil bottle immediately signaled them with a mirror, they caught up, and the black glasses left behind to take care of the rest, and the dull oil bottle took Pan Zi in to find us.

I asked how they found us in such a large place. Pan Zi said that this place is a bit evil. The order of these stone mountains seems to be designed. They just follow the feeling. In fact, the route is exactly the same as ours. When we reached the mark of Aning, we found us all the way and fell on the sand.

Speaking of this, I felt terrified, and nodded busy: "Indeed, this place on the dog day, it seems that I can't get to where I can go, but I don't go back and don't know what's going on." I felt nervous and said Now we are still in the devil city, can't we still go out?

"We're not as stupid as you guys, we keep marks all the way, you can rest assured." Pan Zidao.

The fat man also said: "The marks Lao Zi made are all such big stones that can be seen from a kilometer away, and the reason why he can't go out can be seen by Lao Zi."

"Oh." I relieved and asked, "Why is that?"

Pan Zi said, we did n’t know at the beginning, he was still fat, he did see it. I tell you the truth, we are not staying in the original Devil City now, here is at least One hundred and fifty kilometers.This is a huge Yadan landform group consisting of dozens of small devil cities, with the Gobi in the middle, and all the devil cities are connected by a group of rocks and mountains, connected end to end, forming a huge devil city chain.You just follow this chain, that is 3,600 square kilometers, can you walk?

I shook my head: "Impossible, how could it be so coincident? I just walked in any direction, and there was no deviation at all?"

The fat man said: "You're stupid and you don't admit it. Which direction do you follow? It was designed by someone else. That's because there are many stones in the devil city. The placement of these stones is very particular, often around. Crossing a rocky mountain, there are many stones on one side and few stones on one side, but because the stones are messy and disorderly, you can instantly determine which side is good and which side is difficult to walk. It feels almost the same, but subconsciously, you can distinguish the few stones Direction, and conditioned reflexively choose that direction, as a result you have been walking in the direction that others have designed for you in this devil city. Moreover, almost every intersection is the case, even if there is an intersection, the judgment is wrong. There are still countless opportunities to be corrected. This trick is very common in ancient times, and it was named by a very simple working people, called Qimen Dunjia. "As he said, he looked at the dull oil bottle," Little brother I said Is that correct? "

The dull oil bottle looked up at us, ignored him, looked at the fire, and seemed to be worried.

I laughed and said, "When did you understand Qimen Dunjia?"

The fat man said that you don't know many things, and the expression is quite proud.In my heart, I guess this guy is learning and selling again. After taking back the topic, he asked the fat man: "Then you mean, in this Devil City, someone used these broken stones and put a blind eye?"

The fat man nodded: "That's the case, but it's not a deep formation. If you encounter a lack of attention, or if you have a very careful observation, you can definitely find it. Look at these stones here for a long time. The Queen Mother of the West should be a master of skill, these stones are used for defense. "

Speaking of this, Aning's voice came from a sleeping bag. She said softly: "You are not right, the Queen Mother is simply the creator of Qimen Dunjia. At that time, the Yellow Emperor received the God-given God Book from the Queen Mother, Talking about Qimen Dunjia, she is an ancestor. "

It turned out that the woman didn't sleep, we were all taken aback, and I immediately thought of the legend of the Nine Heavens mysterious girl, and I was horrified.This is indeed the case. Legends and some historical records at that time all said that the Yellow Emperor unified the Central Plains at that time with the help of the Western Queen Motherland.

Think about the old boat again, and I said that there must be a shallow lake in those days. These rocks are exposed on the water, and the underwater rocks will strand the boat. Then in the water, the boatman will choose a place with fewer reefs to travel, and it is easier to get lost. It may be the reason why the Western Queen Motherland has not been discovered for so many years.

Thinking of this, I suddenly jumped my eyes and said to Pan Zi: "You mean the devil city here is a ring?"

Pan Zi nodded, and I asked, "How do you know?"

Pan Zi shook his head: "This is what our guide said. What's wrong?"

I drew a circle in the sand with excitement: "You don't know, I have read Wen Jin's notes. She said that the Queen Mother of the West is under the protection of the invisible wall. Others can't see this wall, but if you encounter it, you must Will look back. Here, thousands of years ago, it should be all water, that is to say, there is a water belt, like a moat, forming a circle. If we assume that this protection belt is that others cannot enter, cover it The “invisible wall” of the Western Queen Mother City for so many years, then the Western Queen Mother State should be within this circle, that is, in the middle of this devil city circle. ”

After I finished speaking, everyone looked at me indifferently, as if watching a fool.

I was seen inexplicably, and said: "Am I wrong?"

Pan Zi patted me on the shoulder and said: "Little Three, you said, we don't have to read Wen Jin's notes, we all guessed it, but, if the situation is really that simple, then the ancient city of Queen West has long been discovered. Here is The Qaidam Basin is not the Taklamakan. Although it is inaccessible, it has undergone countless geological surveys. Therefore, if the ghost town is here, the situation must be very special. It is likely that the whole is buried under the Gobi, or In a situation that is difficult for others to find. You think you can see it there, it is silly and naive. "

When I think about it, I ask them, what are their plans?

Pan Zi said that they had planned to follow Aning's team. When they arrived at Tamutuo, they said that now there was such a big accident.However, according to Dharma's claim, on the west side of this devil city, following the ancient river bed for another two days was the rock mountain pass where she and Wenjin's team were separated.He was going to rest there after we recovered, waiting for the team of the third uncle.After that, I planned to go down the river to go downstream, because the ancient city must be near the river, and the team must have walked the same way. We can also try our luck in this way.

I said to Pan Zi: "But the ancient river channel has basically been mixed with the Gobi at this stage, and it is not clear at all."

"Don't worry about that," the fat man said, pointing to the dark outside.

We were at the bottom of the cave, didn't know what he meant, and we went out. As soon as we reached the entrance of the cave, there was a cold and damp breath, and then I heard a very familiar voice.

It was dark outside, and I couldn't see exactly what the situation was, but I was very familiar with this situation, but in a flash I couldn't believe what I thought.

When I walked out of the hole, and my face was hit by water droplets, I reacted, and said, I fucking, it was raining outside.

But how is this possible?This is the Gobi Desert. It may rain only one year, and it is definitely not this season.

I walked back and said, "What the hell is going on, why is it raining?"

Pan Zidao said: "Little Third Master, you have to thank this rain, otherwise you will not be able to wait for us to come over and become salted fish. When we found you, the rain has started to rain, and now it's all water outside, walking and walking Do n’t go out, or we ’ll go out with you on your back, and it ’s uncomfortable to stay here. After this rain, the old river channel will definitely be full of water. Go downstream, even if the river channel is invisible to us, but the water can know, so you Do not worry."

At this time, I thought of what I decided to say, Dolma and me: Time is coming, and if you miss it, you can only wait another five years. Does it mean this rain?

The more I think the more unreliable, but there is nothing wrong with looking at the dull oil bottle. I should be relieved.

After that, I went to rest. This time I didn't sleep well. When I woke up the next day, I thought I was dreaming again.

In this cave, we rested for two days, and both Anin and I recovered.Aning was familiar with the fat man. In the end, it was Pan Zi who rescued her, and she didn't say anything, but she became very cold to me all at once. Maybe she thought I was also arranged by the third uncle and lied to her.

I don't care too, I almost said that I just hung up, and I still accounted for it.On the third day we set off. Following the mark, we walked to the ankles for two days in the rain. We walked back to the outside and joined the black glasses.The people outside were already desperate and couldn't believe their eyes when they saw us coming out safely.

Pan Zi took a rest day outside, and he suggested that I stay here, wait for the third uncle to arrive, and then decide whether to come in.

However, at this time, I felt that I had no face to see the third uncle, and I decided that the message from Zhuoma to me made me determined to find Wenjin. After all, we did n’t have much time and insisted to fight with Pan Zi. pioneer.

On the one hand, Aning also arranged his own team. Most people wanted to go back. The Caucasians were in a very bad situation. The team doctor said that when the team of the third uncle arrived, he had to go back immediately after borrowing the car.Aning arranged it and told Pan Zi that she was going to join us as well. Her team also took the lead.

There is no problem with Aning's joining, and Pan Zi is no match for me. Besides, we have cars on this road, and it is not a dangerous road, so I agreed.I just happened to be a car with Fat Man, Pan Zi, Stuffed Oil Bottle, Aning, and Black Glasses waiting for my third uncle here.

In the next two days, we walked along the river bed where the water level gradually rose, and went deeper and deeper in the Gobi.Because of the erosion of rain, a lot of tributaries appeared in the river bed. We went to find them one by one. However, no matter how we looked, we did not see the rock mountain.My telescopes are all cracked, and finally I wonder if the mountain has turned into a turbulent sea.

The rain stopped before we set off. We finally rested by the river bed. The tires of the car were very badly worn. Later, one of them was broken. We can only drive for a while and then pump up, and then continue to drive, miserable.

The fat man said: "Will the old lady be bullshit, there is no such mountain at all? Or that is not a mountain at all? Maybe it is a mound, which has been blown away by the wind for more than ten years?"

I do n’t think it ’s true that Dolma looks like a liar, maybe the direction of this ancient river has changed.

"What should I do? If we go on again, the gasoline will be gone. It's enough to go back."

"The place where the river water can converge is the lowest place in the entire plain. There should be a lake. Should we find that lake first? Then start looking for traces of the river channel from the lake, so as to at least reduce the scope."

It was the only way to think about it. When we continued to drive, as we drove up a slope, Pan Zi yelled and braked.

We all ran into the seat cushions in front of us. The fat man scolded, but he didn't finish scolding. Several people were stunned.

The other side of the slope turned out to be a cliff. Our car head had already rushed out, and the two tires had been emptied.

We ran into the car in fear and walked to the edge of the cliff and found a huge basin in front of us, smoky and a huge oasis sunken in the Gobi!(To be continued, if you want to know the future, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
