Chapter 41: Arriving at the Destination

Chu Tianci and the others were running forward quickly, they had been in this desert for two days, and the location of the ancient well was already close at hand, in these two days, Yang Jin finally gave up and continued to approach Chu Tianci and the others, but he did not give up and kept following behind everyone.

Now, in the hands of everyone, there are only the last two hostages left, and the previous hostages, there are only two people left who have died, maybe there are really too many deaths, so those who followed Yang Jin behind the Yang family, finally couldn't help it, after Tian Jialiang released the two hostages again, those who followed Yang Jin The people of the Yang family opened their mouths to ask for a favor for these two people, and Yang Jin also gave up persuading these two people to commit suicide after thinking about it, indeed, there were too many hostages who died before, although Yang Jin could also forcibly threaten the two to commit suicide directly, but it was inevitable that there would be dissatisfaction in the hearts of his subordinates, which would make his team no longer like a command, so Yang Jin had to give up and continue to ask them to commit suicide.

Because there were two wounded, and at the same time, he was unwilling to let Tian Jialiang continue to hurt the remaining two hostages, so Yang Jin could only take the initiative to slow down the speed of moving forward, so Chu Tianci and the others took this opportunity to start moving forward quickly, but unfortunately, without camels, the speed of relying on their legs was really very slow, and it took two days for Chu Tianci and others to finally come to this area.

The fresh water had been completely depleted in the process of moving forward, so after arriving at this relic area, everyone went straight to the location of the ancient well and tried to find a way to get some fresh water for everyone first.

To tell the truth, this ancient well is really deep-rooted, if it weren't for the strong will of Tian Jialiang and the others, I'm afraid they would really not be able to bring fresh water from this ancient well, and in order to be able to get fresh water in the next operation without accidents, after the first bucket of fresh water was raised, it was also handed over to a few retired special forces who carried water, after all, only when they recovered all their energy, they could better take care of others, if they relied on Professor Gu's students, they might not be able to lift this water from the ancient well.

After wasting an hour in the ancient well, everyone finally regained their energy, and at the same time, they filled all the water storage containers in their hands, and the next thing they had to do was to investigate the area to see where the target city was hidden.

This may be the only city in the central area of the sand sea that has not been completely submerged, not only this ancient well, but also some houses, there will also be more than half of the above ground, if it is an ordinary child entering it, they can even walk upright, and Chu Tianci and the others, because the characters are too high, so when they enter these houses, they can only walk half-squatting.

Because there are no clues now, Chu Tianci feels that everyone should settle down in this place first, and only Professor Gu, Chu Tianci, Tian Jialiang and Tu Fei know about this place being the ultimate goal of everyone, so if others asked, Chu Tianci only gave an excuse that he needed to find a way to get rid of Yang Jin, as for the rest, he didn't say more.

Everyone chose a room that looked relatively solid, and the space inside this room was large enough, and more importantly, if they wanted to enter this room, there was only one entrance, so if Yang Jin and the others wanted to get closer, they only needed to arrange a person to guard at the door, and they could ensure everyone's safety, after all, they had been running around for two days, and everyone should have a good rest, if they continued to insist, they were likely to have a state of mental breakdown.

After entering this house, Professor Gu arranged for everyone to rest first, but Professor Gu himself began to look around in this house, and now, even Chu Tianci wanted to know whether this was the final destination of everyone's trip, so he followed Professor Gu's side closely, and began to observe the surrounding walls and roofs, but there was no need to ask carefully, just seeing the disappointment on Professor Gu's face, Chu Tianci knew that the building here was not thousands of years ago, at most, it was only more than a hundred years, so just by looking at this one house, Professor Gu concluded, which has nothing to do with the ultimate goal of the people.

Although the result was not particularly satisfactory, Chu Tianci still did not give up hope, after all, there are still a lot of houses here that have not been flooded, if there is still no gain after inspecting all the houses, then consider other possibilities, so at this moment Chu Tianci urged Professor Gu to take a break, although Professor Gu is the oldest, but in the past two days, Professor Gu has not been left behind, presumably, at this moment, Professor Gu's mental state should also reach the limit, and it is most important to recover everyone's mental strength as soon as possible。

Regarding the matter of guards, Chu Tianci no longer cares, Chu Tianci believes that Tian Jialiang will do all this, presumably when everyone is resting, these retired special forces will take turns to stand guard to ensure everyone's safety, after all, Yang Jin and others have been eyeing behind everyone, and at this moment there are two hostages who have been mixed in with everyone, for the safety of everyone, it is impossible to let everyone sleep.

When Chu Tianci woke up again, because of the sound of gunshots, he opened his eyes and looked in the direction where the gun came from, but found that Zhang Zihao was shooting outside the door at the door of the house, and at the same time as Chu Tianci woke up, Tian Jialiang and others also woke up immediately, and Tian Jialiang and others moved a little faster than Chu Tianci。

It was only at this time that Chu Tianci opened his mouth and asked Zhang Zihao, "Zihao, what's the matter?"

"Oh, it's not a big deal, it's just that Yang Jin sent two guys to sneak in by the night, so I fired two shots directly, which can be regarded as a little warning to them!"

After listening to Zhang Zihao's words, Chu Tianci found that it was already night at this moment, because there was only one entrance to this room, so after blocking this only entrance with a black curtain, it would have been very dark in this house, so Chu Tianci didn't realize that outside the house, it had already been completely darkened, you know, when he lay down, it was still in the morning, but he didn't want to sleep directly at night, and then looked at Professor Gu and a few people around him, but found that they were still asleep, obviously such a long sleep, still not able to make them completely recover。

After continuing to wait for more than two hours, Professor Gu and Tu Fei woke up one after another, and after everyone simply ate some compressed biscuits, they began to discuss the current situation, of course, about some secret things, the people who discussed were still only Professor Gu, Chu Tianci and Tu Fei, as for Tian Jialiang, because he was not interested in this, he directly withdrew from the discussion circle.

The reason why it will be discussed again is also because Professor Gu carefully inspected this house, and he can be very clear that this house is only more than a hundred years old, which is really a big gap from the place he is looking for, so Professor Gu guessed that it could be Tu Fei's calculation error, otherwise, why is there no clue here?

Tu Fei did not immediately deny Professor Gu's speculation, indeed as Professor Gu said, if he led the team to really find the destination, it should not be like this, even if the destination is a desert, it is more reliable than the place in front of him, because those cities have long been submerged by the sea of sand, so it is completely possible to find a desert, so Tu Fei began to calculate again according to some of the references he marked before, but the results obtained were the same as before, so Tu Fei could only shrug his shoulders and signal that this was his ultimate goal, otherwise, the ancient map itself was wrong。

The same result was obtained again, Professor Gu had no choice but to wait for dawn to check on other nearby buildings, if all the buildings were from more than a hundred years ago, then Professor Gu could conclude that this was not the final destination, of course, if he could find some houses that were old enough, maybe he could find some useful clues, but Professor Gu did not have much hope for this.

In fact, at this moment, Professor Gu himself already felt that this time his trip to the sand sea seemed to have failed, and the reason why he did not order to leave immediately was also to want to verify it one last time, and there was still a certain amount of food carried this time, and it was okay to leave before the food was completely consumed.

Of course, there is still a problem that needs to be solved if you want to investigate here, Yang Jin and the others have been following behind everyone, and now the other party may not be aware of anything, but when Professor Gu officially starts to investigate here, presumably Yang Jin will immediately think of something, then Yang Jin will definitely search all the buildings here immediately, if this is not the final destination, it is better to say, if there are really any relics that have been inherited for thousands of years here, it will really be a disaster, even if Professor Gu thinks that this may be very small, he is not willing to take such a risk, so when the real action starts at dawn, Professor Gu feels, Chu Tianci also needs to think of a way to look around without being suspected by Yang Jin.
