After listening to An Liman's complete set of analysis, I also had a general understanding of the local humanities and customs, and then touched my chin and muttered, "The eye of the witch that the second uncle is looking for should be hidden in the sand sea of the devil's nest, so that there will inevitably be a conflict between them and Zoroastrianism, maybe through Zoroastrianism, you can track down the information about my second uncle." ”

An Liman nodded and said, "Your idea is not wrong, but Zoroastrianism is an extremely mysterious group of people, they do not have a fixed gathering point, but are divided into many forces, following the migration of the wind and sand, wandering around in the desert, it is not easy to find these people!"

Feng Li stretched his waist and said, "Will there be Zoroastrian whereabouts in the Gobi Desert?"

An Liman's eyes were a little uncertain, and he shook his head and said that he didn't know, so he could only go over there to take a look first.

After speaking, he handed us a kettle, and took out a lot of local food to entertain us, so that we could rest in our own homes first, and then we would officially set off for the Gobi early tomorrow morning.

The desert climate is harsh, the temperature difference is huge, the three of us are used to living in the south, and suddenly faced so many changes in the climate, and we are still a little uncomfortable for a while, as for the color scales and devouring god Gu, not to mention, these two little things have not shown their faces once since they got off the plane.

Finally, the next day, the team officially set off.

An Liman's car was full of all kinds of food and water in our rented car, including gasoline, and several large boxes were prepared, which made the already not very wide carriage extremely crowded, Feng Li couldn't help but complain, and asked him why he prepared so many supplies?

An Liman smiled and said, "Don't feel troublesome, when you enter the Gobi Desert, anything can happen, in case you are trapped in the wind and sand, these things can save your life." ”

Located on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, known as the "Sea of Death Sand", it is also a holy place for domestic travelers to explore.

After several hours of traveling, we finally arrived at Tucha Gobi, where Anliman parked his car behind a bunch of small sand dunes and organized us to pitch our tents.

According to him, the wind and sand in the Gobi Desert at night will be very strong, and if you can't set up your tent before sunset, you may wake up the next day and find yourself buried in the sand.

Fortunately, Anliman had plenty of experience, and thanks to his meticulous guidance, we set up a fire that night, ate two cans of canned beef, and then sat down around the fire to discuss the next step.

An Liman pointed to the piles of sand dunes in front of him and said, "This is the outer edge of the Tucha Gobi, there are usually many passing tourists or caravans passing by, the only thing we can do now is to wait, waiting for the caravans in the Gobi Desert to pass by, and ask them if there are any living people nearby." ”

Chen Xuanyi and I were both a little anxious, saying that this is not waiting for the rabbit, and we will not be able to investigate until the Year of the Monkey?

An Liman will spread his hands and say Everyone, this is not a country after all, the desert climate is so dangerous, and the communication equipment is useless, so you can only choose this stupid way to find people, if you have a better idea, you might as well take the initiative.

We were speechless for a moment, and continued to chat for a few minutes, when An Liman took out a crescent-shaped knife from his bosom, the scabbard was inlaid with several rubies, and it was very dazzling in the moonlight.

Seeing that we were all observing this knife, An Liman explained with a smile, "This knife is a treasure I found from a pile of ruins in Dawan Kingdom, and it has been following me for more than ten years. ”

Feng Li was puzzled, saying that the desert was so empty, if there was really an enemy, it could be discovered with the naked eye, so why be so cautious?

An Liman shook his head and said, "You only know one thing, but you don't know the other, the Gobi Shoal seems to be calm, but in fact there are dangers everywhere, have you ever heard of the nuclear test in Lop Nur? It is said that the Scientology carried out a nuclear test explosion in Lop Nur, which once blew open the 'Gate of Hell' and released thousands of man-eating monitor lizards, and these dog-skinned yellow monitor lizards are said to be the guardians of the gates of hell, which is a great security hazard for us. ”

In addition, scorpions, poisonous snakes, and all kinds of small reptiles in the desert are also objects that have to be guarded against.

I was fascinated by what I heard, and took the initiative to ask, "There is a legend about the 'Gate of Hell', I have heard about it on the Internet, but I have never thought about it, is there really another netherworld under Lop Nur?"

Talking about this topic, An Liman seemed secretive, and continued to shake his head, "No one can say for sure what I haven't experienced personally, in short, everything needs to be careful." ”

Almost as soon as An Liman's words fell, Chen Xuanyi, who had been observing the surrounding environment, jumped up, pointed to a sand dune a few hundred meters away, and said, "Look over there, it seems that something is lying there." ”

Feng Li was the first to get up and say what the hell? Could it really be such a coincidence, just after talking about the gate of hell, a dog-skinned yellow monitor lizard appeared?

An Liman and I also looked at it, but instead of seeing the legendary man-eating monitor lizard, we found a black shadow similar to a livestock, lying quietly under the sand dune, motionless.

"It's camels!" said Anliman, shaking his beard, "and the most reliable means of transportation in the desert is not the car, but these camels with excellent endurance, although they do not move fast enough, but they are used to travel steadily, so there are often caravans riding camels through the desert." ”

"Then let's go up and have a look!" Feng Li kicked on the sand, his body flashed, and he quickly glided along the sand dune, the posture was like surfing on the seaside, splashing countless yellow waves, quite chic.

Two minutes later, Feng Li came to the place where Chen Xuanyi found something abnormal, turned around and shouted at us, "Sure enough, there is a camel carcass, come quickly!"

"Let's go too!" Hearing Feng Li's greeting, we didn't stay any longer, and immediately ran in that direction, and sure enough, under a sand dune, we found the carcass of a camel that had almost been dried into jerky, An Liman squatted down to check, and only after a long time did he get up and say,

"This camel must have died a week ago. ”

As to why he judged this way, Anlimon explained that the temperature in the desert is too high, and any animal carcass, once thirsty to death in the desert, will be evaporated from the water in the body in a very short time, and then become this kind of "dried corpse", he has lived in the desert for decades, and only needs to look at it to distinguish.
