To go back, of course, I chose to go back.

Almost without thinking, I spoke my thoughts to Old Man Drogo.

And Qin Yue did not veto it.

There were eight camels behind the old man, and when we got on them, Drogo whipped himself and set off.

In the dark night, eight camels walked alone in the desert.

When it was almost dawn, I finally saw the Great Gobi Desert in front of me.

It was still early in the morning back to Stampede, and instead of following Drogo back to his ranch, we booked a hotel in Stampede.

After entering the hotel, Qin Yue had only one order for us, and that order was to have a good rest.

We rested for five days in a row, during which old man Drogo came to visit us three times.

During these three times, Old Man Drogo has been talking to us about the sand sea.

After eating a not sumptuous dinner, Qin Yue stopped us who were about to go back to the room to rest.

I know that Qin Yue has something to say to us, and we also have a lot of things to say to Qin Yue at this moment.

Why did you choose to say it today, it is because Old Man Drogo has gone to Malaysiatown.

Entering Qin Yue's room, after a short silence, Qin Yue opened his mouth and said to us: "I don't think we can go back for the time being, at least not until we find out what happened to us." ”

After Qin Yue finished saying this to us, he looked at Hesheridina: "Tell me about your discovery." ”

Found?

Hearing Qin Yue's words, I also looked at Hesheridina in surprise.

"During these five days, the old man Drogo rode his camel into the desert every night, and I just followed him to the Great Gobi and didn't follow him anymore, so I don't know the purpose of this old man entering the desert. ”

When I heard Hesheridina's words, I was completely stunned.

Into the desert every night?

"The time is fixed, the route is not clear, the old man Drogo will enter the desert every night at twenty-two o'clock, not a second, and he will return from the desert at the same time as a minute, three o'clock in the morning. ”

Hesheridina's voice fell, and a look of shock appeared on each of our faces.

"It seems that this old man must be hiding some secret in him. Gou Tang made a final summary of Hesheri Dinah's words.

"Three doubts!" Qin Yue stretched out his finger to look at us and continued.

"The first suspicion, Yuan Ya and Qin Ya. ”

"The second suspicion is the whereabouts of the two of them. ”

"The third suspicion is the timing of Drogo's appearance. ”

"I don't think Drogo found us because he saw the glow of our flashlight, he must have known our whereabouts before he showed up when we needed help the most, and although I don't know Drogo's intentions yet, I believe that as long as we stay here, his intentions will be revealed sooner or later. ”

Now that the conversation has been opened, this is the first time in five days that we have had this kind of communication.

I also raised the questions in my mind.

My doubts are nothing more than what Old Man Drogo said to us that night and the tattoo of the Quartet Key on our arms.

According to Drogo, Yuan Ya and Qin Ya appeared thirty years ago, and took him to curse the sands.

This is originally a suspicious point, regardless of whether the past thirty years are true or not, let's just say that this cursed sand group, but I remember clearly that this cursed sand group was found by us, and at that time, Yuan Ya and Qin Ya were helpless at all.

And the day before yesterday, I also mentioned the sight of the sun in the desert, and when Drogo heard me say this, both his eyes and his expression at the time, told me that he did not know the so-called poor sight zone.

The cursed sands are located in the Cursed Desert, and Drogo must enter the Cursed Sands to go to this place, and Drogo said at that time that he did enter the Cursed Desert on a raft.

Since Drogo didn't find that blind spot in the Cursed Desert, how did he end into the Cursed Sands?

According to his description, our route into the Cursed Desert is the same, and since it is the same, there is no doubt that the difficulty of finding the Cursed Sands must also be the same.

Drogo is lying!

What I can't understand the most at the moment is not Drogo's lying, but the tattoo of the Quartet Key on our arms, under what circumstances it was engraved on the arms of the five of us, and the five of us were unaware.

This man approached me when I first stood on the Great Gobi and pitched his camels to me, and I think he was already approaching me knowingly.

"What I can't understand the most right now is the quad key tattoo on our arm. ”

I want you to say the most incomprehensible thing to me.

"It's true that it's hard to explain. Hearing the question I raised, Gu Yicheng also shook his head.

"If the tattoo was actually carved on our arm without us even knowing it, it would be too weird. ”

At this point, each of us fell into deep thought.

When was it? I racked my brain, but I still didn't find anything.

"Leaving that aside, since Drogo is lying, then what he said to us that night must be a lie. And I suspect that this Drogo must know Yuan Ya and Qin Ya, otherwise he would not have been able to say the names of the two of them accurately, but there is one thing I don't understand, why is he telling us this lie? Is he trying to scare us? Or is he deliberately creating mystery for Yuan Ya and Qin Ya. ”

"That's not the most incomprehensible, what is really incomprehensible is Drogo's motives, why he saved us, and why he entered the desert on time every night for five days. ”

I listened to the discussion between Gou Tang and Hesheridina, but the more I listened, the more confused I became.

The quadrangular key tattoo on our arm is not blue, but green, and this green color is a bit like patina.

"These days, I've been working on this sudden extra quad key tattoo on my arm, and I'm not sure about the rest, but one thing I do know for sure is that this tattoo is not artificially carved on our arm, but grows like a seed on our arm. ”

"Grow?"

After Qin Yue said this sentence to us, each of us showed a look of surprise and even surprise.

"Well, I can be sure I didn't have such a tattoo on my arm before entering the Cursed Sands, nor did we have any tattoos on my arms when we faced that sudden wind ant event. ”

"The timing of this tattoo should have appeared on our arms after we entered the sea of cursed sands, or during the time we returned. ”

"And I'm more inclined to the former, more inclined to curses!"

"Curse?" Hearing Qin Yue's words, I also looked at her with a shocked expression.

"Well, the curse, the curse of the stone hall, now we can define a new name for that stone hall, the square stone hall, and the map and key we got in the square stone hall are the keys to unlock the curse on us,"

"I don't know how dangerous this curse will do us, but we should uncover the truth about this map and let this stone key and map fulfill its final mission. ”

"Yueyue is right, I agree. ”

At the same time as Qin Yue's voice fell, Gou Tang was the first to agree to Qin Yue's proposal.

Naturally, I don't have to say it, and Gu Yicheng and Hesheridina don't have any reason to refuse.

Qin Yue took out the animal skin again and spread it out on the table.

At this moment, each of us is staring at the dense lines in this animal skin.

"These lines should represent mountains or rivers or something, and we can think of it as a simplified painting, so it should be easier to understand. ”

As the saying goes, three stinkers beat Zhuge Liang, and the five of us are much wiser than those three stooges.

Under our gaze, under Qin Yue's depiction on a blank piece of paper again, after a series of recombinations such as comparison, reference, elimination, reorganization, and overthrow.

A sketchy map unfolded in front of us at this moment.
