Thinking of Lop Nur reminded him of the Pengamu incident.

On May 8, 1980, with the approval of the government, a team called the "Chinese Lop Nur Expedition" led by the famous scientist Peng Jiamu set out to Lop Nur in an attempt to cross the 450-kilometer-long Lop Nur Lake Basin.

From May 8 to June 17, they collected many biological soil samples and mineral fossils, and collected a lot of valuable first-hand reliable information.

On June 16, the expedition team was forced to stop due to severe water and gasoline shortages.

After discussion, the expedition team decided to send a telegram to the nearest place to request the troops to rescue.

During this period, the captain Peng Jiamu had an argument with other members of the expedition team, and he did not want to ask for rescue, because the expedition team had limited funds, and it would cost at least 7,000 yuan for the army to send oil and water once. But in the end, Pengamu compromised.

At 9 a.m. on 17 June, the team received a call back from the troops, who agreed to the request and asked for camp coordinates.

At 1 p.m. on June 17, the expedition team found Pengamu missing.

It was found by the driver Wang Wanxuan when he went to the car to pick up his clothes, and he saw a note in an atlas with only one line of words written on it:

I went east to find a well.

Peng 17/6, 10:30

Since then, from 1980 to the present, the Chinese Academy of Sciences has sent four expeditions to search for Peng Jiamu, with thousands of participants, but the scientist has never been found.

Peng Jiamu's unexpected disappearance has become a very mysterious event in modern China.

This incident seems very simple, it is nothing more than a scientific expedition mission, the captain did not listen to the dissuasion and left the team alone to find water, and as a result, he disappeared in the desert.

However, there are countless missing people in China every year, and there are not no expeditions, so why is Pengamu so much attention?

First of all, let's get to know the Pengamuqi people.

Peng Jiamu, born in 1925, is a native of Guangzhou. After graduating from Nanjing Central University, he taught at the College of Agriculture of Peking University, specializing in agricultural chemistry.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he joined the Shanghai Institute of Biochemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences as a researcher, and was later elected as a deputy to the National People's Congress in Shanghai.

A year before the incident, he began to serve as vice president of the Xinjiang Academy of Sciences. He has conducted 15 scientific expeditions in Xinjiang and entered Lop Nur 3 times.

Why did he disappear?

Could he have found some visitors from outside the sky, or spotted meteors or something like that, that attracted him there?

Kowloon thinks it's entirely possible, there are always many mysterious events that are completely unexplained, and that deceased friend encountered the dzi in Lop Nur, which is incredible in itself, and it stands to reason that the dzi is easier to encounter in Tibet.

Therefore, Kowloon also wants to try his luck, and go there on some hot days, although it is dangerous, but often chance and danger coexist, and it is not worth the life to take risks while you are young.

Therefore, the two of them packed up and came all the way to Lop Nur.

As soon as you hear the name, you should be able to guess that Lop Nur is a lake, and it was once the second largest inland lake in China.

However, in the mid-to-late 20th century, due to the decrease in the flow of the Tarim River into the lake, Lop Nur became seriously desertified and dried up rapidly, and by the end of the 70s it had completely dried up.

It was once an oasis of life with herds of cattle and horses, green forests, and clear rivers.

Now it has become an endless Gobi desert, without a single grass, not a single stream, and the summer temperature is as high as 71 ° C.

There is not a single bird in the sky, and no bird dares to cross it.

Lop Nur itself is mysterious, a Bermuda Triangle-like existence, why?

First of all, where exactly is Lop Nur? Everyone will laugh when they see this question, nonsense, isn't it in Xinjiang, and to be more precise, in the southeast of Xinjiang.

But what about the exact location? Who can give a latitude and longitude? After years of research, Chinese and foreign scientists and explorers do not dare to draw conclusions lightly.

Because they found that the lake was moving before it dried up!

It is constantly moving between 39°-40° north latitude and 40°-41°, although there is only a difference of one or two degrees, but the lake is sometimes southerly, sometimes northerly, and it keeps swinging, but it is true!

The swing of Lop Nur has caused numerous debates, and many scientists have given their own opinions. Among them, Sven Hedin himself put forward a speculation after his expedition to Lop Nur.

He believes that Lop Nur exists in the north and south lake areas, and the water of the river carrying a large amount of sediment into the lake will cause the lake to tilt into the other side if it raises the bottom of one side of the lake.

However, when the raised bottom of the lake is exposed, it decreases again due to wind erosion.

However, due to the lack of reliable evidence, the mystery of the Lop Nur movement remains unsolved.

Second, the shape of Lop Nur is a human ear?

In July 1972, NASA launched the Earth Resources Satellite to take a photo of Lop Nur, Lop Nur resembles one of the human ears, and what is terrifying is that this ear is similar not only to the outline, but also to the details.

There are not only ear wheels, ear holes, but even earlobes.

Open the Google Earth map software, search for Lop Nur, and actually see a "big ear"!

The weird horror of Lop Nur's big ears can be said to be unique in the world.

This is also one of the reasons why Lao Mei is particularly concerned about this place.

If Lop Nur is only a natural effect, then what about being like a human ear?

The explanation of domestic scientists is that the measured area of "Big Ears" is 5,350 square kilometers. The shape of the big ears in the photo is actually the different color outlines of the lakeside salt crust accumulated by Lop Nur in different stagnant water periods, refracted in the sunlight.

The chloride-dominated salts in the salt crust are highly concentrated and produce crystalline substances with strong spectral reflection, and the lighter tone of the trunnion lines is shown on the satellite photographs.

To sum up, it is not necessarily a person who can move a person's ears, but it may also be Lop Nur.

Thirdly, the city disappeared out of thin air?

Or the aforementioned Sven Heding, a Swede who began his expedition to Xinjiang, China, in the early 20th century.

When I first explored Lop Nur, I had no experience, and I brought all the dry food equipment and everything, but I didn't bring water, and I almost died of thirst.

However, he learned from the hard work and invented the idea of carrying ice into Lop Nur in winter.

March 28, 1900 was a memorable day, when Hewen and his party were on their way to the Lop Nur Desert when a local Uyghur farmer he hired was on a search for a lost axe when he was suddenly confronted with a sandstorm.

As a result, he accidentally discovered an ancient city buried under the sand, and Hewen burst into tears, he finally stopped doing useless work in China - the Loulan civilization that disappeared for no reason finally reappeared.

According to historical records, until the Tang Dynasty, Loulan was still a very prosperous country.

Why did it suddenly disappear out of thin air?

This is also Lop Nur's most famous mystery through the ages.

Some people will say that the previous one is just that, but this one has something to do with my country's great scientists?

Don't worry, please note that the time when Hewen discovered the Loulan civilization was 1900.
