Within a few days of the expedition's departure, the expedition team had a series of accidents, not only encountered a major storm that had not been encountered in a century, but even almost lost its way on several occasions. On the evening of the 16th, after a series of difficulties, they finally arrived at Kumu Kuduk on the south bank of Lop Nur.

But at this time, their supplies were seriously insufficient, not only lack of oil, water, and food, but the team members were even more exhausted. At this critical juncture, Dean Huang discovered that there were two wild camels, one large and one small, not far from their station.

In order to ensure the safety of the members of the scientific expedition team, Dean Huang personally shot a small camel. The female camel who lost her child refused to leave for a long time, and kept wandering back and forth in the station of the scientific expedition team, screaming sadly, and the members of the scientific expedition team who listened were all terrified.

And that was the night when something unfortunate happened......

Two of the members of the expedition who had been exposed to some plant samples were suddenly infected with the virus, and the virus they were infected with was a mutation of the previous virus, and the symptoms were even more terrifying......

The two infected team members were first covered with red envelopes, which was unbearable, and they kept clawing with their hands, and after a while, there was almost no intact skin on their bodies.

In order to prevent the other team members from becoming infected again, Dean Huang decided to isolate the two first, but because the scientific expedition team did not have any anti-infection specific drugs in their hands, the two team members died in the second half of the night.

This caused a lot of panic in the entire expedition team, and everyone was afraid that they could be infected with the virus at any time.

However, the sacrifice of the two team members allowed Dean Huang to successfully find the plants parasitic with the virus in the last few plant samples they came into contact with.

But at this time, he found out that there were spies in the scientific expedition team, although along the way he found that there were people in the team who made marks along the way, but at that time he thought that this was just a personal effort to prevent getting lost.

However, after the two team members died of the virus, Dean Huang found that some of his personal belongings were often turned over, especially some manuscripts about the parasitic plants of the virus.

Although the rest of the team members are all friends and colleagues he is familiar with, in that atmosphere, except for himself, he really can't rule out the suspicion of anyone. Although Dean Huang had already sent a distress telegram to his superiors at that time, during the time before waiting for the arrival of rescuers, it was very likely that the virus samples in his hands would be snatched away by the agents hidden in the scientific expedition team.

As soon as his proposal was put forward, almost all of them opposed it, because the superior had already called back and said that a helicopter was being sent to the station to deliver water.

However, in order to protect the plant samples in his hands, Dean Huang still took a little dry food and water and walked to the depths of the desert while everyone did not find it...... At that time, he was still confident that he could survive in the desert for a day, and the direction he was walking at that time was a straight line, so he should not get lost.

Dean Huang deliberately wrote the direction of his search for water in the wrong direction on the note he left before leaving, he wanted to stay in the desert for the night, and when the rescuers arrived the next day, he would immediately return.

However, Dean Huang misestimated his ability to find direction in the desert, and he began to lose his way when he walked about 5 kilometers or so. The water and dry food on his body have also been eaten, coupled with the heavy workload in the past few days, he has never had a good rest, and due to the lack of physical strength and severe lack of water, Dean Huang finally fainted in the desert......

When he woke up, the desert had changed, and a super storm was blowing around him, and he knew that if he couldn't find a shelter from the wind at this time, he would probably die in this sea of death.

Just when Dean Huang was staggered by the wind, a black ancient city suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and his instinct to survive made him push open the gate of the ancient city......

Dean Huang has only talked about this and will not go any further, and all of us were also frightened by the YN-12 virus he said. If Zhao Qiang and Liu Ziping were really infected with this virus, then with the current conditions, they were afraid that they would not be able to go back alive!

The black storm outside was still strong, and the wind roared outside with a heavy resentment. Ye Zhiqiu is still very conscientious as a doctor, although Dean Huang has said that it may be infectious, but she still wears gloves and masks to take care of Zhao Qiang and Liu Ziping.

Seeing her walk back with an ugly face, I hurriedly asked, "How are the two of them?"

Ye Zhiqiu shook his head, "The ulcers on my body are still expanding, if I don't think of some way, I'm afraid it will ...... soon."

"Didn't you come out with any medicine this time?" I said.

Ye Zhiqiu opened her backpack and looked for it for a long time, and then said to me helplessly: "I brought some antibiotics, but they were all in the car, and I only have some first-aid hemostatic drugs on my body now, which have no effect on them at all." ”

yes, I just remembered that most of our supplies were left in the car, and if we can find the car now, maybe the two of them can still be saved......

Thinking of this, I walked to the door of the temple, looked out through the crack in the door, and looked out to see when the storm would stop, but I found a strange thing, although it was very windy outside, but I didn't see any sand and dust on the ground.

I told Uncle Li about the situation, and he also came over to check, then pinched his fingers and calculated, and said, "This ancient city is so strange, maybe it has something to do with this black storm." ”

After hearing this, I turned to Ding Yi and said, "You and I go to the city gate to have a look, maybe our car will appear with this black storm?"

Ding Yi didn't say a word, picked up his backpack and walked out of the temple with me.

The outside is really the same as I thought, although there is wind and sand around, but not a single sand in the air does not land, or it disappears when it lands like the ginseng fruit in Journey to the West!

Ding Yi and I walked for a long time against the strong wind to see the city gate, I didn't have much to eat, and the wind blew at an unknown level, and my whole body was about to collapse from exhaustion. But Ding Yi didn't seem to have anything to do, and he dragged me all the way to the city gate.

The two of us pushed open the city gate together, and were immediately stunned by the sight before us, only to see that the visibility outside the city was less than 10 meters.

"We have to go out and have a look!" because the wind was so strong that I could only shout loudly into Ding Yi's ear.

Ding nodded after hearing this, and said to me in the same loud voice: "Be careful when you go out later, don't let the wind blow you away!" After he finished speaking, he took off a scarf from his body and tied the hands of the two of us together.

I thought it was funny, so I said to him aloud, "Isn't it?"

But this time he didn't answer me, just dragged me out of the city.
