Chapter 72
As the sun set and dusk, the men and horses gradually returned to the camp, but Professor Chen and his two young men were nowhere to be seen, and even Ah Bin, who was sent by Uncle Zhong to follow them, was nowhere to be seen. Lan Zui and Uncle Zhong waited left and right, until the blizzard returned at night, and there was still no news from them.
Gegen Gaole has no mobile phone signal, Lan Zui and Uncle Zhong took turns fiddling with the walkie-talkie, once they were connected, but there was a murmur of electric current, and the intermittent words could not be heard clearly. Lan drunk fed for a long time and did not get better, and after a while, the signal was directly cut off, and even the noise did not appear again.
Lan drunk anxiously paced in the house, she had arranged for the remaining four guys to drive two cars to find people in the surrounding area as early as the night, and Yu Chen also sent two guys to help in one car. But back and forth a few times, the three cars in the walkie-talkie all replied that there was no figure, plus the snow is getting heavier and heavier, the vision is not clear, and then the snow is so useless that the wipers are useless, and the goose feather snow is wrapped in a ball and flutters on the windshield, and even the car can't move, and the people who go out have no choice but to throw the car in the local area, abandon the car and walk back to the camp on foot.
Lan Zui gritted his teeth and listened to the report of the watermelon, he was the last batch to come back. Like the last two groups of people who went out to look for it, the watermelon found nothing, and Lan drunk and irritably waved his hand to tell him to go to eat and rest, and his eyebrows were tied into a dead knot.
"Sister Lan, maybe it's because the snow is too big for Abin to come back for a while, so he found a place to avoid the snow. You don't know, if it weren't for me and Ah Guang wearing goggles, we wouldn't have been able to find our way back. Watermelon tried in vain to comfort Lan Zui.
"Something must have happened."
The snow only began to fall heavily at night, and although it drifted a little at dusk, it was not yet enough to affect the line of sight. Ah Bin is the most effective partner of the Lan family, after experiencing that wolf attack, he is very aware of the crisis on the grassland after nightfall, even if there is a mistake in tracking Old Man Chen, he will definitely contact Lan Zui or Uncle Zhong as soon as possible. The sudden severance of contact is mostly a possibility - Abin was discovered by the surname Chen.
"Lan drunk, it's useless to be anxious now. You've seen the weather, you can't even raise a bonfire, and if you want to find it, you'll have to wait until tomorrow when the snow is light. Yu Chen also persuaded beside him.
Lan Zui glanced at him lightly and did not speak. After this earthen house problem was discovered by her and Uncle Zhong, she didn't want to touch it at all. Yu Chen's words of comfort were not unreasonable, but she had to think about whether Yu Chen had other ideas. Not to mention, there will definitely be a fire in the house tonight, what will be the consequences for them to stay one more night?
And in such a bad blizzard, Abin stayed outside all night, but he was afraid that it would be more auspicious.
"Today we went out in five groups and can be sure that the direction of travel is this, this and this." Lan Zui re-laid the sand table in the corner of the house on the ground, and gestured on the sand table with his fingers, "You haven't met Old Man Chen in these three directions, so these three directions are excluded." The range of the three cars tonight is probably in this area, this area and this area. Lan Zui continued to draw a few circles on the sand table to draw a few circles around the area that he had searched today, and said: "Your line of sight was not bad at the beginning of the search, and for the time being, we will not consider the factors that you missed during your search, and we assume that Old Man Chen and they are not in these circles." They didn't drive when they went out today, and the food and water belts were in normal use, and they didn't bring warm clothes and extra equipment, so when they went out, they probably didn't plan to go out for too long. The period from going out in the morning to coming back in the evening, counting the back and forth, then the area of their activity should be in this circle. Lan Zui drew a large circle on the sand table again, "Cross out the known directions and the area you searched just now, about this one is the ...... that you haven't searched!" ”
"Wait!" Uncle Zhong pressed the sand table, his eyes widened: "Why haven't you searched this piece?" ”
"The places we didn't go to were relatively steep sand dunes, and we tried to go up as much as we could if we could drive up a little slower." Watermelon thought that Uncle Zhong was blaming them for the unfavorable search, and said in an aggrieved tone.
"Yu Chen, you already knew, didn't you?" Uncle Zhong ignored the watermelon and looked at Yu Chen coldly.
Desertified steppes are not a large plain with no end and no end and no flatness, and there are still many gently undulating hills. The sand table given by Old Man Chen is not a fine standard map sand table, but a rough representation of the nearby terrain of Gegen Gaole, and the gentle hill is only replaced by small dots, and it is like a handful of sesame seeds sprinkled on the entire sand table, and there is nothing to see if it is sparse and dense. But when Lan Zui circled the area that had not yet been searched in order to find Ah Bin, he saw a clue.
The area that was not searched was distributed in a linear pattern, the first line was almost at right angles to the second line, and the third line was folded back, forming a very familiar line, which was exactly the same as the shape formed by the four stars of the Big Dipper, Tianxuan, Tianji and Tianquan, and the earth house was located in the center of the spoon head.
"Uncle Zhong, one thing is one thing, does it have anything to do with whether they disappeared or not?" Yu Chen was calm and asked rhetorically.
Uncle Zhong frowned, indeed, Yu Chen only said to bring them, and he was not obliged to tell them other things.
"The burial chamber is in the Heavenly Pivot?" Uncle Zhong put it another way and went straight to the point.
"I don't know." Before Uncle Zhong became angry, Yu Chen continued, "I, like you, am coming to Gegen Gaole for the first time. It snowed last night, and I went to look for a day today, but I didn't find the hole my dad did. However, I did find a few traces of him, and the direction was indeed going that way. ”
"Mu Ye can find out that the person surnamed Chen has been here for eight days and has touched the surroundings, and I'm afraid he has also found it." Lan Zui said coldly: "Maybe the one surnamed Chen has already found the thief hole that Mu Ye beat first, but he may not have gone down yet." As soon as we came, he was afraid that things would be divided, so he simply took advantage of the fact that we hadn't found a place yet, and struck first. Ah Bin may have followed them to discover their intentions, revealed his whereabouts again, and was restrained by them. ”
"If they are determined to do it, even if they don't want these few people in his team, they won't even bring food and water. I saw that most of their equipment was in tents. Bai Suhe suddenly retorted.
Lan Zui was silent, Bai Suhe was indeed right.
"I'm inclined to have an accident. It is possible that the surname Chen was the first to discover the thief hole that Mu Ye had hit, and it was even possible that he would go to the thief cave first to do something, and planned to solve us in the thief cave when we went down. After all, there were many people on the ground, and he couldn't fight, so he wanted to use a yin trick, but when he went down, there was an accident. ”
Bai Suhe eloquently expressed her speculation, and when Lan Zui heard it, she felt that what she said was more reasonable.
But if so, there can be no further delay. Who knows what happened and what will happen the next night.
Even if Lan Zui didn't take Professor Chen and his two young men to heart, Ah Bin's life was very heavy in her heart.
"Pack up your things, we'll go over now. Bring all the guys who went down to the ground. After hesitating for a moment, Lan Zui immediately said, "Yu Chen, do you mean to come with us now, or wait for the snow to stop before you go by yourself?" ”
"Master Lan, you have put everything here, what else can I say?" Yu Chen smiled bitterly: "Of course it's together, let's go." ”
The author has something to say: Thank you for the mines, the beckoning cat, and the 13506484, Momoda-3-
I received a call on Sunday night to have a meeting the next day to prepare materials or something, and I was also drunk.
