Chapter 396: The Eve 2 (I)

Wang Xingguo was really tired, although the noisy engine kept reminding him that he couldn't fall asleep, but Wang Xingguo's eyelids still closed together without obeying the command, Wang Xingguo's head fell on the steering wheel several times, and Wang Xingguo, who woke up, pinched his thigh hard to sober himself up, but this was only an expedient measure.

The sound of the engine can be transmitted to 10 kilometers or more in the desert, in order not to alarm Dick, Wang Xingguo planned to abandon the vehicle when the wild goose fell 15 kilometers away from the mountain, and turned to walk, but walking in the open desert during the day, unless Dick's people were blind, they would not see themselves, so Wang Xingguo had to hurry up and plan to arrive in the second half of the night, using the cover of night to get close to Dick.

If everything goes well, Wang Xingguo will sneak into Dick's camp in the second half of the night, find Xia Ruobing, and think about how to leave - destroy other vehicles, leave only one car, use this car to cross the desert, and then call the police, Dick's team still has enough supplies, there will be no problem to support it for a week, and a week is enough time for the police to arrive here and arrest them all!

The tractor's headlights have long been broken, but fortunately, the moon in the desert is very round, Wang Xingguo takes out the compass every once in a while, and confirms his direction in the bumpy cab, and at the same time observes the position of the North Star, uses the North Star to correct the deviation of the compass, the desert temperature drops below 0 °, and the oven-like cab becomes an ice cellar during the day, Wang Xingguo closes all the windows to no avail, and after a while, the windows are foggy, affecting the sight of the driver, and he has no choice but to open a little window, under the stimulation of the cold wind, With the starlight running wildly across the desert, the giant constellation Orion dominates most of the sky, taking everything in the desert under his command.

......The car seemed to have hit something, and Wang Xingguo opened his eyes.

He didn't know when he fell asleep, his hands were still on the steering wheel, but the car slowly shifted its course, turned to the right, and the front wheels of the car sank into the desert, and then the whole car sank in, and the engine was still roaring in vain, but the wheels were spinning in the sand.

Wang Xingguo shook his head to sober himself up, only to find out that there was a big trouble - the car was stuck in the quicksand and couldn't move! Quicksand could bear such a large weight, Wang Xingguo felt that the car was slowly sinking.

When I opened the cab door, I saw that the fine sand next to the car was slowly leaking deeper into the place, the quicksand is a trap in the desert, these sand looks no different from other places, but under the cover of the sand is a pit that I don't know how deep, once I fall into the quicksand, there is only a dead end when no one helps.

Wang Xingguo climbed from the cab to the cargo hopper, he had to rescue some supplies, but just now, the bucket in the cargo bucket fell into the quicksand, and Wang Xingguo saw it slowly sink down.

"!" Wang Xingguo looked at the supplies in the hopper, the most precious water was gone, but the two barrels of oil were still intact, he quickly picked up some things that could be used, threw the oil drum into the quicksand, and used it to jump to the solid ground while the oil barrel had not yet sunk.

The front of the car sank into the sand, and after a while, the air intake was blocked, and the noisy engine finally quieted, Wang Xingguo watched the tractor being swallowed up by quicksand little by little, and his ears were still a little buzzing after being noisy by the engine for a day, but when the surroundings were silent, Wang Xingguo was a little unaccustomed.

At the moment, he had to open his legs, Wang Xingguo checked the direction, it was not that there was no good news, at least this noisy machine had walked more than half of the distance for himself, but the bad news was that the remaining water in Wang Xingguo's kettle was already below the warning line.

There can be no food in the desert, but the situation is very bad if there is no water, the bucket of water in the bucket is dedicated to the desert, Wang Xingguo in order to hurry, thinking that there is enough water to replenish at any time, are to drink the water in the kettle nearby, now there is about 300 ml of water left in the kettle, if you want to cross the desert during the day, this water is far from enough.

Wang Xingguo didn't have a watch, he looked at the direction of Orion in the sky, and estimated that it was 4 o'clock in the morning, and there were still 5 hours before the sun rose......

Wang Xingguo shook the kettle, he felt that if he hurried now, before the sun was too hot to scorch him, he could rush to the Yanluo Mountain, go around the back of the Yanluo Mountain, and then find supplies for himself in Dick's camp......

For infiltration, Wang Xingguo is still very confident in himself, although there are some small modifications to the plan, Wang Xingguo weighed it and felt that it could still be achieved.

But Wang Xingguo forgot that he was making plans for himself more subjectively at this time, and he was worried that Xia Ruobing's mentality would affect his thinking, but the desert would not change because of anyone's will, and ignoring any detail would make people pay a heavy price......

Wang Xingguo just ignored a detail, the speed of advance in the desert will be reduced, he thinks that it is now less than 30 kilometers away from the wild goose falling mountain, if he travels at a speed of 5 kilometers per hour, counting the rest and other time, he can go around the mountain before noon tomorrow, and then he can see Dick's camp, but he is wrong......

When Dick and Xia Ruobing climbed to the highest point of the wild goose falling mountain, they were a little puzzled, Xia Ruobing took the historian's record and looked in the direction of the sun, but did not speak for a long time.

"Is this reliable?" Dick asked suspiciously, from which aspect of this mountain, there are no artificial traces, perhaps as Xia Ruobing said, the erosion of wind and sand in 2000, artificial traces have long disappeared.

"Take the mountain as the yang, and the moon as the yin! I'm looking for directions......" Xia Ruobing glanced at Dick.

Dick didn't know this, his eyes rolled: "Xia Ruobing, you won't be dragging time, right?" ”

"That's why I say you're an idiot!" Xia Ruobing said, "The people of Loulan are positioned by constellations, not simply southeast, northwest, and ......."

Dick had no interest in learning ancient culture at all, and he shrugged his shoulders: "Anyway, if I haven't found the entrance before tomorrow, I'll use explosives...... I can always blow up something. ”

According to the description of the historian, the tomb was very magnificent when it was built, and later when the king of Loulan migrated, in order to avoid the Huns from finding it, many traces outside the tomb were destroyed. The wind and sand in 2000 buried most of the wild goose falling down the mountain, and now the highest place is less than 100 meters from the ground, the main entrance of the royal tomb is estimated to have been buried by tens of thousands of tons of yellow sand at this time, but at that time when the construction was carried out, the characteristics of the mountain were used at a high place, leaving several pores, Xia Ruobing ran to the high place, just to find these pores.

Xia Ruobing took the record and looked left and right, and walked down the mountain line.

"Hey! I'm talking to you! Dick saw that Xia Ruobing didn't care about himself at all, and felt that his self-esteem was very hurt.

"How do I think she's the boss?" Dick muttered.

"I think you'd better listen to her." Chen Badai on the side said.

"This is it...... Dig it! Xia Ruobing walked along the mountain line to a low place, which was hidden by yellow sand, but it didn't look different from other places.

"This is it?!" Dick looked left and right, skeptical.

"The entrance to the royal tomb is below." Xia Ruobing pointed to the bottom of the mountain.

"And what are we doing here?" Dick was a little annoyed, Xia Ruobing was teasing herself!

"Do you want to dig up tens of thousands of tons of yellow sand below?" Xia Ruobing smiled, "I don't object either. ”

"But here?" Dick couldn't make the connection between the stones, the sand, and the entrance in front of him.

"Dick, you really should read more books, this is called a blowhole, you have to leave ...... when every royal tomb is built" Xia Ruobing said sarcastically, and then didn't care so much, and walked straight down the mountain: "Notify me when you dig it, don't use explosives, dig with your bare hands!" ”

“SO?!” Dick's eyes widened, Xia Ruobing said something serious, not like he was lying to himself.

“SO?!” The bearded man glared at Dick as well.

"Dig! Do you want me to do it?! Dick yelled at the bearded, "Didn't you hear her say you can't use explosives!" ”

The bearded man has always used explosives to solve hard things, and although the weathered rock is not very hard, it is not easy to dig by hand, and the bearded man obscurively directs his men to wield a shovel to clean up the floating sand.

The dry floating sand is like water, and as soon as you throw a shovel up, you slide back down the edge with a half-shovel, and the bearded man has been digging for hours of sand before he has cleared the sand here.

"I think this is teasing me!" The beard was covered with yellow sand, and even his beard was sticky a lot, and he panted as he looked at the sand pit, which had been dug three meters deep, but still had not seen the bottom......

Dick was also a little puzzled, but it really felt like a blowhole, which had been blocked by 2,000 years of wind and sand, and perhaps he had to dig deeper to see it properly. He stood up and looked at Xia Ruobing under the awning under the mountain, Xia Ruobing was sitting in his chair, his slender feet were on the table with a big grin, wearing sunglasses, and drinking a drink comfortably.

"Hey! She's actually drinking my juice?! Dick exclaimed.

Xia Ruobing glanced towards the mountain, and defiantly took out an ice bucket from an incubator.

"That's my ice!" Dick yelled, "I'm going to have to strangle this ruined!" ”

"You strangled her, who gave you the secret passage and mechanism to crack the royal tomb?" Chen Badai asked.

"If you don't have those things! I'm really going to strangle her! Chen Badai's reminder made Dick mumble stupidly.

Xia Ruobing sat on his feet to enjoy the only little shade in the desert, the group of old men on the mountain sweated like rain, and the floating sand struggled, digging sand in the desert sun is not an easy job, people take turns, basically stay in the sand pit for less than 10 minutes before the heat can't stand it, climb out and replace the next one......
