In the desert of the northwest, it is now sunset, and there are a few cars parked near a dead poplar forest, these cars are not good cars, but they are the most suitable pickup trucks on the edge of the desert, and there are several camps not far from the front of the camps, and in front of the camps, a bonfire has just been raised.

"Xiao Wan! Xiao Wan! It's time to eat! ”

Wu Jun shouted a few times at the sand dunes not far away, and soon Wan Yi's figure appeared from the other side of the sand dunes. Compared with the same year ago, the current Wan Yi has completely lost the appearance of the white-faced scholar of the year, his skin has long been tanned, and the clothes and pants that have been a little white, plus the hair and beard that have not been taken care of for a long time, look almost the same as Lin Jianxue at the beginning.

For more than a year, Wan Yi has been working with Lin Jianxue's exploration team, in fact, he has already completed the internship and obtained a master's degree, according to the school's arrangement, Wan Yi can return to school, whether it is to stay in school as a teacher or go to the Geological Bureau to work in the office It is a breeze for him.

But Wan Yi rejected these arrangements and took the initiative to stay, which greatly puzzled the school leaders. For this reason, the professor of the school specially talked to him, but Wan Yi did not listen to persuasion, and finally gave up a comfortable and decent job that he could have gotten, and continued to do this kind of geological exploration work full of wind and rain, sun and sand.

Now Wan Yi is already a formal member of Lin Jianxue's geological exploration team, over the past year, he has followed the geological exploration team to almost all the nearby areas, working in the desert as many as 6 times, and has won the recognition of Lin Jianxue and other team members with his excellent work attitude and enthusiasm.

Today is the seventh time that Wan Yi has followed the team on a desert expedition, and the area they investigated is not too far from the place where he first went with the team. A little more than a year ago, about 100 kilometers to the north, Lin Jianxue's exploration team discovered a 212 military jeep that had been abandoned for more than 30 years. There was also the body of a soldier who had died in an accident.

At the beginning, after discovering the situation, Lin Jianxue quickly reported to his superiors through the guò radio, and a professional rescue team came to take over the next afternoon, and then for various reasons, Lin Jianxue's exploration team did not stay there for too long, according to the arrangement of the superiors. The scene and the relics found were handed over to the rescue team, and then they returned to the supply depot as planned.

What happened to the corpse of the soldier and the military 212 jeep, they inquired afterwards, but in the end there was no definite news. According to the reply from the superiors, it was only said that they were missing in the course of the army's mission many years ago, but what the specific situation was, because the body and the vehicle belonged to the troops, so the matter was eventually taken over by the troops, and they did not know the result.

It's been a long time. Lin Jianxue, including Wu Jun and others, has long forgotten about this matter, as a member of the geological exploration team, he has been working in the field all year round, especially in a harsh environment like the desert, although this kind of thing is rare, but it is not uncommon. Many years ago, Lin Jianxue encountered the dried corpses of travelers in the desert. The longest of these dried corpses is about 100 years, and the shortest is a few decades. In the desert, any danger can be preserved. Disappearances and accidents are very common, and Lin Jianxue is not surprised, not to mention that every time he reports to his superiors according to the procedure, but there are very few real results.

But Lin Jianxue didn't know that Wan Yi had always had a secret in his heart that he didn't tell them. Plus, sneaking in his closet pocket. Hiding a book with a torn cover, this book was found in the desert when he met the jeep and the dried corpse, and when the rescue team arrived, Wan Yi did not hand it in, but quietly left it.

Wan Yi did this for a reason. The reason is very simple, because there is a signature on the colophon of this book, and this signature is Wan Changchun.

No one knows that Wan Yi is actually the grandson of Professor Wan Changchun, Professor Wan Changchun has two daughters and a son, and his only son Wan Lin is Wan Yi's father. At that time, when Professor Wan Changchun disappeared, Wan Lin was still very young and was in high school, unlike Professor Wan Changchun, Wan Lin did not take the road of scientific research and teaching, he did not continue to go to school after graduating from high school, but devoted himself to the business world and became a businessman.

Wan Lin was in business not long after the reform and opening up, and the business at that time was much better than now, as long as he had the ability and momentum, coupled with some connections, it was not difficult to make a fortune. Wan Lin has these factors, and after decades of ups and downs in the business sea, Wan Lin gradually became bigger and bigger from the initial self-employed person, and later became the boss of a large group company with assets of hundreds of millions.

Although he finally chose to go into business, in Wan Lin's heart, the kind of worship he had for his father when he was a child was indelible. It is also for this reason that Wan Yi grew up listening to his father Wan Lin tell him the story of his grandfather Wan Changchun, compared to his father Wan Lin, his grandfather Wan Changchun was unusually tall and profound in the heart of the young Wan Yi, and even directly affected Wan Yi's growth process, when he graduated from high school, Wan Yi did not follow his father's arrangement to study in business school, but chose geology, because he wanted to become a scientist like his grandfather Wan Changchun and make a career in scientific research.

A few years ago, Wan Lin and his wife disappeared mysteriously on a plane returning from Southeast Asia, and after several months of investigation, it was confirmed that the plane crashed into the sea, and their death left a huge inheritance to their only son, Wan Yi, including the well-run company. Wan Yi had two choices at this time, one option was to drop out of school to take over his father's company and become a businessman. The other option is to continue his studies and fulfill his dream of becoming a scientist like his grandfather Wan Changchun. In the end, Wan Yi chose the latter, he entrusted the company to the foundation and the manager, continued to stay in the school to complete his studies, and was admitted to graduate school with excellent grades.

Coming to Lin Jianxue's exploration team, Wan Yi was actually a little selfish. Because he knew that his grandfather Wan Changchun was missing in the northwest, he did not choose some famous universities with good conditions in the south when he was admitted to the university, but was admitted to the Northwest University of Geosciences.

When he was in college, Wan Yi had the intention to collect information about the disappearance of his grandfather Wan Changchun, but this information was very small, so little that it was only a few words. During the internship of graduate students, according to the internship arrangement of graduate students, Wan Yi did not have to directly join the exploration team for internship, and it was for this reason that he found Professor Gu to open the "back door", which allowed him to obtain this place.

Even Wan Yi himself didn't expect that when he first followed the exploration team into the desert to work, he could accidentally discover information about his grandfather. In the desert, it was Wan Yi who first found the jeep and the corpse, and then inadvertently dug up a book with his grandfather's name written on it in the desert.

"Could it be that Grandpa had the same accident as that corpse?" This thought has been lingering in Wan Yi's mind, but he has a fluke mentality, because according to the search of the rescue team later, the jeep corpse left at the scene did not find another body.

What's more, a book with Wan Changchun's name written on it does not mean that Wan Changchun must be swallowed by the desert, as long as Wan Changchun's body is not found, a miracle may exist. But Wan Yi himself knows in his heart that this possibility is very slim, so much time has passed, even if his grandfather hadn't suffered this kind of accident back then, then he might have been dead a long time ago.

With such a complicated idea, Wan Yi volunteered to stay in the exploration team, and he planned to continue to search for the whereabouts of his grandfather Wan Changchun in the desert with the convenience of working in the exploration team. But more than a year has passed, and there are still no new discoveries. Today, when he was camping, Wan Yi deliberately climbed the nearby sand dunes with binoculars to look around, also trying his luck.

But after searching for a long time, I found nothing around except desert or desert. Hearing Wu Jun's shout, Wan Yi cleaned up his mood and walked back from the sand dunes one foot deep and one foot shallow.

After walking a few steps, Wan Yi's gaze inadvertently swept in the direction of the east, and suddenly saw a dust and smoke rising from there, Wan Yi was stunned, and hurriedly picked up the telescope to look, and when he saw the things in the telescope clearly, the whole person was stunned all of a sudden, and stood motionless incredibly.
