Chapter 1085: The Unlucky Trio
Hao Ren and Meng Yunxi went all the way to the west. At this time, it was already half past seven in the evening, but Lop Nur was located in the westernmost part of the Huaxia Kingdom, and it was not dark until about eleven o'clock in the evening.
The sunlight stretched their shadows very long, and the two walked west while chatting.
"Team leader, tell me all about your coming here this time, I want to know what happened to you in the past few days?" Hao Ren said to Meng Yunxi.
Meng Yunxi nodded: "Okay." Two days ago, I was chatting with Lao Tan and Lao Han in the office of the Mystery Bureau, when I suddenly received a call for help from the Northwest Military Region, saying that a group of college students had gone missing after entering Lop Nur ten days ago, and that the military region had sent soldiers and local police, and the two sides had formed a search and rescue team to enter Lop Nur, and as a result, the search and rescue team had also lost contact with the rear. The planes sent by the Northwest Military Region did not find the footprints of the college students and search and rescue team members, so they had to ask our mysterious bureau for help.
The afternoon before yesterday, Lao Tan and Lao Han and I came here by military plane to search and rescue. After the military plane took us into Lop Nur, it flew back. The three of us were there to slowly search for traces of the missing person.
At that time, it was a little late now, and Lao Han found some messy footprints. The footprints were already blurry, presumably someone had passed there before. However, because of the cover of the wind and sand, those footprints can no longer be seen from the shoes. Fortunately, none of this matters.
So, we followed the footprints and chased forward. After chasing for dozens of kilometers, there was a small hill about fifty meters high in front of it. Directly south of Xiaogang is a small, low-lying basin. Those footprints suddenly disappeared when they entered the basin.
I, Lao Tan, and Lao Han also followed into the basin until we walked to the place where the footprints disappeared. We were wondering what was going on with these footprints, when suddenly our feet were empty, and all three of us had fallen.
At that time, it was pitch black before our eyes. Luckily, we all had lighters and flashlights with us, so we took them out to light them up. Only then did we know that we had fallen into an ancient tomb. However, the tomb is empty!"
Hao Ren pondered for a while and said, "I have read historical materials and remember that there are ruins of the ancient kingdom of Loulan in this Lop Nur. It has been more than a thousand years since the ancient kingdom of Loulan disappeared, and in the past thousand years, there have been so many tomb robbers who have patronized it, and they must have stripped everything inside!"
Meng Yunxi's knowledge of history is not as good as Hao Ren's, and when it comes to this, he can only nod. Then he continued, "We found some lizard eggs and shed skin in the burial chamber, so we thought it might have become a lizard's nest." The lizards were big and their eggs weren't small, and we guessed that the lizards there wouldn't be too small to attack humans, so we decided to get out of the tomb as soon as possible. By the way, we also found some human shoes there!"
"Shoes, where did they come from?" Hao Ren asked.
"Then who can tell? It may be that the lizard ate the person and took it off the corpse to play!" Speaking of this, Meng Yunxi began to talk about his experience with Tan Ming and Han Bing, "The upper cover of the tomb is actually a trap, he uses the principle of seesaw, as long as the weight on both sides is different, it must be the heavier side that falls into the tomb first." The side that is equal to the weight is empty, and the side that was light is heavy again, and it will fall into the tomb. Knowing this principle, we can easily come out.
When we came out, Lao Tan took two lizard eggs and put them in two broken shoes, saying that they were taken back to someone for testing or hatching. ”
Hao Ren smiled: "Lao Tan's idea also has his truth, but this is likely to cause trouble!"
Meng Yunxi slapped his thigh: "Brother, you are smart, you are right in your guess! Not long after the three of us left, we heard the sound of rustling behind us. But by then it was almost dark, and we couldn't see anything when we looked back, thinking it was just the wind.
Suddenly, Lao Tan, who was walking at the back, let out an exclamation. Han Bing and I looked back, but it turned out to be a lizard bigger than us wrapped its tongue around his waist and dragged it into his mouth. If you drag it in your mouth and be bitten by it, it's not fun!
Old Tan hurriedly threw away the two shoes in his hand, and then slapped at the lizard. His 'Thunderbolt' kung fu was very domineering, and he immediately burned the lizard.
However, it was not only one lizard that besieged us, there were hundreds of lizards of the same size, and there was even a lizard king who was up to five meters in size.
Although we are martial artists, we actually carry mobile phones with us. But the scales of the lizards are so hard that one or two shots can't kill them at all. After one shot of bullets, it can't kill a few lizards, and it is not as effective as Lao Tan's 'Thunderbolt Fire' and Lao Han's 'Xuanbing True Qi'.
The three of us fought hard with the lizards with our own true qi, and finally killed dozens of lizards, we were already tired and panting, but those lizards did not retreat, and even became more and more fierce. We had no choice but to flee into the distance with light skills. ”
Hao Ren asked, "Why don't you ask the barracks for help?"
Meng Yunxi smiled bitterly: "You must know that it was completely dark at that time, which added a lot of difficulty to the rescue. Moreover, with the combat power of those lizards, unless it is us innate martial artists, no matter how strong the special forces are, they are not their opponents. It will only increase casualties. Besides, we are members of the Mystery Bureau, if we are in a little danger, we will ask the army for help, isn't it too embarrassing!"
Hao Ren smiled: "When is it, you still care about your face!"
Meng Yunxi continued: "We decided to lurk first and make plans tomorrow morning. We hide ourselves in a mess of rocks, holding our breath, thinking we can escape the lizard's tracking. However, they have a very keen sense of smell and find us without much difficulty. So, we had no choice but to continue to escape. In the process of escaping, all three of us lost everything we were carrying, including the compass. ”
Hao Ren frowned slightly: "That's bad! Without a compass, you can't find your way in the desert, only go around in circles!"
Meng Yunxi said: "Yes! If we can have a compass, with the light skills we have practiced for many years, as long as we are willing to consume our true qi, we can run to the barracks." Now, as you say, it's all about going around in circles.
We knew we couldn't get out, so we had to run away for a while and sit down to rest. In this way, I finally stayed up until dawn. But after daybreak, the lizards were even more ferocious, and we fled far before we had the opportunity to call the director for help. Good thing you're in the director's office too!"
