The sun rose above the horizon, and the ten thousand rays of light shone on the endless Gobi Desert, paving a layer of golden light on this vast land.

Wang Youmu got up early, he was eating the breakfast that Adili had prepared for him, thinking of Liu Yusheng and Xiao He, who were still trapped in the sea, he felt as if his chest was blocked by something, and he didn't have a little appetite.

Adili's father went back to the village last night, and through talking with Adili, he also knew that there were no people in this area at all, everyone lived in the village, and Adili also built these small earthen houses so far away from the village for the sake of the family's camels and sheep.

Speaking of which, he Wang Youmu is really lucky, if it weren't for the sudden arrival of the sandstorm that day, which frightened a little camel of Adili's family and ran away, ordinary people rarely go to find the place where he fainted.

"Brother Wang, do you really want to go back?" asked Adili.

"I have to go back, and I'll be there as soon as I wait. Wang Youmu took a sip of milk tea and said.

"The day before yesterday, I guess it ...... such a big sandstorm," Adili said, looking at Youki.

"It's okay, there are two big boulders in the place where they are staying, and there is a water source, as long as you don't leave early, you should be able to carry the sandstorm. ”

"That's good, I'll prepare some dry food and water for you later, and you can ride my big male camel, that guy is amazing, you take it, and it can take you back." Adili said proudly.

"Thank you so much, when you come back, I want you to go to the county to deliver a letter. Wang Youmu said.

"No problem!" Adili readily agreed.

Wang Youmu took out his work card and five yuan from the pocket of his jacket, and then wrote down a phone number in the small work notebook he carried with him, tore off the piece of paper with the number, and handed it to Adili.

"When you send me to the place where I was found that day, you immediately go to the county and find a phone number and tell them that you have met the missing person of the geological survey team, and then ask them to call this phone number I gave you, and tell them that I am waiting for them in the village, and you must tell them that one of my comrades with me has been poisoned, and let them come with a doctor. Wang Youmu carefully arranged.

"My aunt is in W City, and I often go to the county to call my aunt, so you can rest assured. Adili patted his chest and said.

Soon after breakfast, Wang Youmu and Adili set off on a camel, they walked on the vast Gobi with the fire-like sun, walked for about three hours, Adili in front of him stopped, pointed ahead and said

"Brother Wang, that's where I saw you. ”

"Okay, then you go back, I already remember the way in, don't forget what I told you. ”

After Wang Youmu finished speaking, he drove the camel forward with a whip, and disappeared into the busy Gobi Desert after a while......

Liu Yusheng woke up, he felt that he had been in a coma for a long time, and it seemed that he had only been in a coma for a moment, and the scenes before the coma appeared in his mind one by one.

He felt that someone was feeding him water, which made his dry and itchy throat feel a lot more comfortable, and he wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn't lift them, so he woke up and fell asleep without knowing how long it had passed.

Finally he woke up again, he suddenly felt that his eyelids were not so heavy, he tried to open his eyes, the white wall, the light blue curtains, a few apples on a small wooden cabinet next to the bed, the sun shone in through the curtains, the air was filled with a strong smell of disinfectant water, there was a bed next to him, white pillows and quilts, neatly placed at the head of the bed, the whole room was quiet as if a needle had fallen and could be heard.

He seemed to think of something, he felt his legs, lifted them hard, tried to move his hands again, and felt that there was no problem, and the heart that was hanging just now was put down. At this time, someone pushed open the door of the ward, and Liu Yusheng saw a man in his thirties walk in.

The man had short hair, a square face, probably due to his long work in the field, his skin was dark and rough, his eyes were not big or small, which seemed to reflect a slight treacherous smell, and he was wearing a blue overalls, and the words "Northwest Oil" were printed on the left pocket of the clothes.

"Hehe, Section Chief Liu, you're awake, we're all worried about you!" said as he walked to Liu Yusheng's bedside.

"Thank you!" Liu Yusheng said as he tried to sit up on his own.

Seeing that Liu Yusheng was about to sit up, the man held his body down.

"Don't get up, don't get up, Section Chief Liu, you need to rest, let's just lie down like this, I'll just sit."

"Then what's so embarrassing, thank you for saving me! You're here?" Liu Yusheng still said and sat up straight against the head of the bed.

My name is Li Futian, and I am the captain of the 15th Survey Team of the Northwest Petroleum Bureau, and we have been exploring oil fields here. The man smiled.

"So where am I now?" asked Liu Yusheng.

"You are now in Peakwuzi Township, TKX County, Section Chief Liu, I really admire you, you are really good! Your scientific expedition team should enter Lop Nur from KEL City, you can enter from the west of Lop Nur and come out alive from the north, you are really much better at scientific research than us. Li Futian's tone was full of admiration.

"Ahh

"What? Section Chief Liu, aren't you the head of the pathfinder team, by the way, how are the rest of your comrades?" asked Li Futian.

"Woo woo woo, all dead! all dead!" Liu Yusheng said crying.

"Section Chief Liu, I'm sorry, it's good that people can come back alive, isn't it common for us to engage in field exploration. ”

Liu Yusheng calmed down his emotions and asked, "By the way, Captain Li, how do you know about our situation?"

"Your affairs are now in the whole system, it should be said that the geology and mining systems of the whole country are known, and your Captain Liu is now a celebrity!"

"What do you mean, how can it affect so much?" asked Liu Yusheng.

"Because almost none of the people who went in this time came out, and the people who came out said that when the most critical time was you, Section Chief Liu, regardless of the danger, carried forward the spirit and took the lead in forming a pathfinder team to find a way for everyone, and now you are already a martyr, can you not be a celebrity?"

"I'm a martyr, so I'm dead!" Liu Yusheng said in a low voice.

Maybe this question is too sensitive, or maybe it's something else, Liu Yusheng saw Li Futian stand up, walked to the door, stretched out his head and looked outside, then turned around and closed the door, walked back to Liu Yusheng's bedside, sat down and said in a low voice

"Section Chief Liu, you don't know, few of the people who went in came out alive, you and I both know that this is a ministry-level scientific survey task. There is no achievement, and so many people are missing, can you not be in a hurry?"

Seeing that Liu Yusheng was listening to what he said very seriously, Li Futian continued

"Therefore, after your disappearance, the ministry issued a notice asking all the survey and exploration teams around Lop Nur to search and rescue you with all their might, regardless of unit or department. ”

Liu Yusheng suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, and now he felt that the sentence "If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing after you", it is simply too right, so isn't the salt mine his "future blessing"?

"Captain Li, do you remember where you saved me?" asked Liu Yusheng.

"Remember, it's not far from one of our exploration team's field camps, why are you still planning to go back?"

"Yes, I have to go back We found the salt mine, and my teammates sacrificed all for this, so I have to go back, I can't let them die in vain!" Liu Yusheng said impassionedly.

"Salt mine, really?" Li Futian said a little excitedly.

For these people, although it is not a department, there are some things that everyone understands very well, and besides, this time such a big move, the purpose of the scientific survey team to enter Lop Nur is known to everyone.

"Captain Liu, look at your physical condition, why don't you tell me, I'll take someone in, and you can rest well in the hospital. ”

"No need, I can't give you the map direction, I made a mark all the way back, I can only find it if I go in person, we will leave tomorrow morning, Captain Li is fine, right?"

"No problem, I'll go down and arrange it later. Li Futian said.

Next, they talked about some details that needed to be paid attention to on the road, and Li Futian said that he would let Liu rest well for the rest of his life, and said goodbye and left.

Liu Yusheng lay on the bed, and his heart was full of excitement, after more than 1,800 days of eating and drinking in the northwest for five years, was it finally coming to an end......?
