Chapter 21 Getting Out of Trouble
Chu Tianci felt that it was not a long time to leave the circle surrounded by camels, and then Tian Jialiang took himself and Professor Gu into a very low space, at first, Chu Tianci did not perceive what kind of existence this space was, but when someone sealed the entrance, Chu Tianci was finally able to check the surrounding situation.
It turns out that this space is a temporary space at this moment, and the main material is the same black leather curtain as before, but it is different from the previous kind of directly built on the top of everyone's heads, this time these curtains are laid on the ground, and then some heavier objects are used to fix the corners of the curtain, and then they begin to dig on the curtain, until a space that can accommodate several people is excavated.
The area occupied by this curtain is not particularly large, if it is too big, it will definitely not be able to withstand the ravages of those winds, so the space hidden under the curtain is not particularly large, at this moment in this space, there were originally four people, but after Chu Tianci and Professor Gu entered, Chu Tianci felt that the other two left here, and then the entrance was buried, so that Chu Tianci and Professor Gu were completely hidden under this curtain.
Chu Tianci believes that at this moment, on the curtain, it has long been buried by those deserts, if it weren't for himself and Professor Gu taking the initiative to go out, it is likely that no one else will be able to find the location of this refuge space at this moment, but for Tian Jialiang, Chu Tianci still trusts him, since Tian Jialiang asked him to stay, then he can wait here slowly, before the sandstorm completely passes, or before the air in this space is completely used up, he and Professor Gu will definitely not take the initiative to go out。
At the beginning, there was still a trace of light around, and at the same time, the air in this space was not so stuffy, but as time went by, Chu Tianci found that his breathing gradually became heavier, Chu Tianci understood that this was because this space had been completely buried, and naturally it was completely disconnected from the outside world, so the oxygen in the air began to be consumed rapidly, and Chu Tianci and Professor Gu would naturally gradually become dull.
During this time, Chu Tianci didn't know how much time had passed, but it was certain that he couldn't continue to wait, because Chu Tianci found that Professor Gu's consciousness seemed to be a little blurred, so he had to dig the exit again, and he couldn't let himself and Professor Gu be suffocated under this underground, and Chu Tianci felt that time had passed for a long time, so presumably the sandstorm should have completely passed, so Chu Tianci decided to reopen the exit.
At the location of the exit, it was originally blocked by a package, and it was precisely because of the blocking of this package that the sand did not completely block this space, so after Chu Tianci removed the package little by little, he dug the sand into the space little by little, and at the same time of excavation, Chu Tianci also kept pulling Professor Gu to move outward, using this method of exchanging space to move upwards bit by bit.
When he entered this space before, Chu Tianci didn't feel so deep, but when he left this time, he found that the sand above his head was much thicker than he expected, Chu Tianci understood that all of these sands were the masterpieces of this sandstorm, but this moment was not the time to sigh, for the safety of his own life and Professor Gu's life, he had to dig out hard.
Digging in the sand is a very painful thing, when the bodies of the two people completely moved out of the space under the curtain, the surrounding sand began to collapse constantly, and soon, the space that originally existed around was completely submerged by these quicksands, the two of them were as if they were completely buried by the sand, and they were also glad that the surrounding sand was not so solid, so even if they were buried, the two of them could still insist on digging upward, but Chu Tianci and Professor Gu both understood that the two could not hold on for too long, and it was already very difficult to hold on to the sand for a minute。
Just when Chu Tianci felt that he was about to die of shock in the sand, Chu Tianci suddenly felt that his arm was loosened, and then the whole arm was completely detached from the sand, and after a hard support on the surface of the desert, Chu Tianci's body completely broke free from the sand, and the next thing was much easier, after a few quick gasps, Chu Tianci exerted himself again, and he was completely freed.
Of course, now is still not the time for Chu Tianci to relax, after he successfully broke away, Chu Tianci began to quickly dig up to Professor Gu's location, and it was also before Professor Gu went into shock, he finally excavated Professor Gu, and after doing all this, Chu Tianci finally completely relaxed and lay on the desert.
At this moment, the sandstorm has long passed, and the sand dune area, which was originally slightly undulating, has now become a flat land, and in the entire desert, it seems that only himself and Professor Gu are left, which makes Chu Tianci a little worried, and he doesn't know what is happening to the others now.
After lying on the surface of the desert for a while, Chu Tianci got up again and dug under his body, after all, the materials that Tian Jialiang had prepared for himself and Professor Gu were still buried under the desert, and if he and Professor Gu wanted to survive in this desert, they would inevitably need to dig out those materials again.
Not long after Chu Tianci started digging, suddenly not far from Chu Tianci's excavation, an arm suddenly came out from under the desert, seeing this arm, Chu Tianci didn't know that someone had also dug out from the ground, so Chu Tianci didn't care about continuing to dig, and ran over directly, helping this person quickly get out of the sand, and after digging this person out, Chu Tianci found out that this person was Tian Jialiang who had saved himself and Professor Gu before.
After Tian Jialiang came out, he also didn't make any stops, next to his unearthed, he began to dig quickly, Chu Tianci also quickly helped, after the two of them dug a foot deep under the desert, they finally dug out another person from the sand, and this person turned out to be the guide Tu Fei.
With the appearance of Tian Jialiang and Tu Fei, the others began to cross out of the ground continuously, but in the end, after everyone came out, Chu Tianci found that Tian Jialiang did not save everyone, because there was still another tutor and two students missing at this moment, no need to ask too much, if they were not swallowed by the previous sandstorm, they would still be in the hands of the Yang family.
At this moment, everyone successfully broke away from the large army, which is luck and a misfortune, because when the sandstorm appeared, Tian Jialiang and others began to prepare non-stop, so at this moment, the living materials excavated by everyone from the desert are definitely enough for everyone to survive in this desert, and unfortunately, after breaking away from the large army, there are no camels in everyone's hands, so if you want to continue to move forward, you can only rely on your own legs, and you have to carry those living materials forward, so this is a disaster for everyone。
Fortunately, among the people, all the retired special forces are here, so for the living materials, most of them are carried by them, Chu Tianci and the others only need to carry a part of the living materials, because of this reason, everyone will not be unable to continue to move forward.
Looking at the crowd at this moment, Tu Fei first asked Professor Gu, "Professor Gu, what should we do now, should we continue to move forward, or do we choose to return to the oasis again?"
At this moment, Professor Gu is still still lost because of the loss of a few students, originally a very simple task, but he didn't expect to experience so many things, the other three followed those outlaws, Professor Gu couldn't be sure of their safety, after all, he had been by his side for many years, so there was still a very strong feeling between everyone, and now that this situation of not knowing life and death suddenly appeared, Professor Gu's mood was naturally not too good, but after Tu Fei asked, Professor Gu knew that the next actions of the entire team still needed to be decided by themselves, so they could only fight hard to plan the next trip。
"Tu Fei, do you know where we are now?"
Because of the previous sandstorm, in fact, Tu Fei at this moment can no longer specifically determine the specific location of everyone, but according to Tu Fei's own rough calculation, in fact, everyone will be closer to the center of the sand sea at the moment, if they continue to move towards the center of the sand sea, it is estimated that it will take more than a day to arrive, and as for the location of the ruins requested by Professor Gu, Tu Fei has no way to determine, after all, a ruins that have been completely buried under the desert, it is impossible for him to find its specific location, and the only hope now is the river he saw before, and hope still exists, so as to deduce the true location of the destination through that river.
After listening to Tu Fei's introduction of the general situation at the moment, Professor Gu finally decided that everyone continued to move towards the destination, after all, so many things had happened along the way, if they gave up at this time, then all the previous efforts would be in vain, not to mention anything else, even for the safety of the other two students and the tutor, Professor Gu felt that he could not give up halfway like this, so he asked Tu Fei to continue to lead everyone forward.
When Professor Gu and Tu Fei were discussing, Tian Jialiang had already taken out the living materials under the ground with everyone, and at this moment, he heard that he wanted to move on, so after everyone carried these materials on their bodies, they began to move towards the center of the sand sea.
