"Is there really a number of days in the dark?"

Meng Zitao shook his head secretly, he still didn't believe in this set in his heart, besides, it was obviously impossible to retreat now.

Meng Zitao and his entourage were all elites, and the small sandstorm did not have much impact on them, and when the sandstorm passed, everyone gathered together and continued to move forward.

After walking for more than an hour, the advance team returned to report that a body had been found not far ahead.

Meng Zitao and the others hurriedly went over and found that the body had been dehydrated, indicating that it had been dead for a certain time, but considering the desert environment, the time should not be long.

Judging from the wounds on the corpse, the man died from a smash gun, and one shot was fatal. This conclusion made everyone a little nervous.

In addition, Meng Zitao also found that in addition to clothes, this person did not even have luggage, and it was clearly taken away.

Meng Zitao said: "You go to the front and see if there are any other discoveries within a radius of 100 meters. ”

Several security guards went to investigate, and after a while, everyone brought back the news, and nothing was found.

Everyone was not disappointed, just after the sandstorm, even if there are traces, it will disappear.

After that, everyone continued to set off, because of the corpse, the team also became cautious, such an empty desert area, even if the other party only had a striflage in his hand, it was very threatening, not to mention that the other party might be a person who was looking for a spirit guard, and there was more than one snipering gun in his hand.

Because of the sandstorm, all traces were blown away, and everyone could only move forward as planned, however, they walked for another day, and still couldn't find a place related to "Heaven and Earth February".

This point somewhat made Meng Zitao a little anxious. Since the discovery of the body, it has been calm, but he feels that this is just the calm before the storm, and it is likely that the next moment, a fierce conflict will break out.

In the evening, the team camped behind a small sand dune, everyone set up tents, some people were in charge of the surrounding guards, some people were in charge of food, and the smoke curled up, and after a while, the smell of food gradually came.

"Team Meng, how long are we going to go like this?" The speaker was Professor Qi, one of the two professors, who specializes in archaeological history and also has research on the Exquisite Ancient Kingdom.

"Professor Qi, just like the answer I gave you before I left, now I don't have any definite answer for you. Meng Zitao said.

Professor Qi frowned slightly: "Are we going to go on like this?"

Meng Zitao nodded: "If we can't find clues, we really have to do this, and it's normal for this mission to fail." Hope you understand. ”

Professor Qi scratched his head, looking helpless, but he had also asked Meng Zitao before, but Meng Zitao did not show his tone at all. There was nothing he could do.

"Team Meng, if there is any news, please let me know. ”

"That's for sure. ”

After a few small talks with Mencius, Professor Qi offered to take his leave, and Mencius noticed that he came to the other professor and whispered a few words, shook his head and said nothing.

Not only them, after walking for so long, Meng Zitao couldn't find any useful clues, and he was also very irritable, but he couldn't help it, it was difficult for the Qiao woman to cook without rice, originally he was still thinking about whether he could find the person who was looking for Lingwei, but so far, except for the corpse, he had not encountered anything related to Xunlingwei.

At this time, the army came over and informed him that it was time for dinner.

"Dajun, what do you think 'Heaven and Earth February' means?" Mencius asked as he walked.

"Could it be the reflection of the moon and the water?" asked the army.

Meng Zitao said: "I have also thought about this, but in our current position, if we want to find a water source, we need to pass through the hinterland? ”

"There may be a hidden source of water," said the army, "and we have encountered this situation in the past. ”

"It's hard to find a place like this......"

As Meng Zitao was talking about this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, he sniffed the aroma of the food, and immediately warned him: "Everyone put down the food in their hands, don't eat it, if you have already eaten, go and spit it out!"

After speaking, he said to the army: "Quickly control the person in charge of the food today, and don't have accidents!"

Dajun nodded with a serious expression, and immediately did as Meng Zitao said.

Fortunately, Meng Zitao reminded in time, only a few people had already eaten dinner, and they also vomited out the food according to what Meng Zitao said, but despite this, they were still affected, saying that they were all groggy and wanted to sleep.

Meng Zitao examined them and found that the poison only played a hypnotic role, as long as they slept for a while.

On the other side, the army brought all the people in charge of the food, and they looked very nervous, and they all said that they had not poisoned them.

After interrogation, Meng Zitao did not find any evidence or motive for poisoning, so he asked the people who had contact with them if they had any strange actions, but they all said that they could not remember.

I didn't know what to ask, and everyone was so angry that they wanted to beat them up, but there was no choice but to expand the scope of the investigation.

Busy until more than nine o'clock in the evening, the army went to Mencius with the information: "These are all suspicious, but there is no conclusive evidence. ”

"No evidence is needed. Meng Zitao waved his hand: "You contact the above, change a group of people, and escort them all back for interrogation." ”

Meng Zitao's proposal was undoubtedly the safest and most efficient method, and the army immediately took out a satellite phone to get in touch with the department.

"Ahh

At this time, a frightened scream suddenly came from the camp, and Meng Zitao rushed out of the tent and ran to the place where the incident occurred, and found that it was Professor Qi who made the sound.

"Professor Qi, what's wrong?" Meng Zitao asked.

Professor Qi said with some trepidation: "I just saw the shadow of a person outside the tent, and he seems to be holding a knife in his hand. I was so scared that I screamed. ”

In the end, Professor Qi blushed and felt very embarrassed.

Professor Qiu next to him said: "When Lao Qi shouted, I also took a look, and there was indeed a shadow flashing from outside. ”

"Which way did you go?"

"That direction. ”

Meng Zitao looked in the direction that Professor Qiu was pointing, but saw a black shadow running briskly in the moonlight, his speed was very fast, and he ran down a sand dune in the blink of an eye, and he couldn't see where he had gone.

Meng Zitao led everyone to run towards the sand dune where the black shadow disappeared, when Meng Zitao chased to the sand dune, the scene in front of him made him feel surprised, there was not even a single footprint left on the sand, could it be that the person was a ghost?

Meng Zitao could be sure that the person just now was a living person, as for the lack of footprints, it must have been a special method, he walked down the sand dune, squatted down to check, and sure enough, he found some traces.

Next, he led people to chase after the traces, and when he ran about two kilometers or so, he suddenly made an exciting discovery, not far ahead, there was actually a waterhole, and that waterhole also had a unique feature, the overall shape was very much like a crescent moon.

Could it be that this waterhole is the so-called "February of Heaven and Earth"?

Meng Zitao went to check, this place is very similar to the crescent spring in the "Eight Views of Dunhuang", it is surrounded by reeds, poplars and other sandy weeds, forming an oasis in the desert.

And, like the Crescent Spring, the water here is not decreasing, and it is likely that it also comes to the groundwater. However, the water level of the crescent spring has dropped sharply and can only be replenished by artificial water, but this place is still very natural and gives people a sense of vitality.

Meng Zitao took a handful of water and tasted it, it was very refreshing and sweet, and it was packaged and sold in the market, which must be very popular.

All this is secondary, there is one key thing Meng Zitao can't understand, why did the black shadow come here, or did the black shadow not know, but the blind cat ran into a dead mouse?

Only the person who caught this will know.

The discovery of the "February of Heaven and Earth" is undoubtedly good news for Meng Zitao, and he is very likely to find the location of the "Land of Hope" according to the direction.

But the appearance of ghosts, including the fact that everyone was almost poisoned while eating, also attracted his attention, and there were many madmen in the Soul Guard, if he suddenly attacked, he might be spared, but the others could only rely on luck. 2k reading web
