In the early morning in the desert, the sun rises through the clouds with a touch of red, and the earth at this moment seems so elegant and quiet; Although there is no rendering of birds and flowers, no ink and blue colors, and even a place that can be called a landscape, it leaves an impression that is just as rough as that, but it can attract the footsteps of countless explorers, coming and going.

Yao Chunsheng got up early in the morning, he didn't alarm anyone, first ran around the camp a few laps silently, and then stretched out his arms and bent over, doing radio gymnastics, and moving his muscles.

After the morning exercise, he took out the alcohol stove, small pot, kettle, and eggs from the car, put them on the sand and lit them with a lighter, and began to cook the simplest and most delicious breakfast.

"Come! Qin Kexin! Hurry up and have breakfast, both of you! Yao Chunsheng has always been unceremonious to his male subordinates, he shouted a few times at the top of his voice, and when he turned around, he walked to Luo Fang's sleeping bag again, and immediately called softly: "Xiaofang, I've prepared breakfast, get up and eat something together!" ”

It didn't take long for Xu Lai and Qin Kexin to get dressed and get out of their sleeping bags, Qin Kexin opened his eyes and asked, "Captain Yao, what did you make delicious?" Yao Chunsheng rolled his eyelids, said with a stiff face: "Bread, egg drop soup!" ”

Qin Kexin smiled again and asked, "Are there any pickles?" This appetizer is indispensable for my morning at home. ”

I only heard Yao Chunsheng scolding: "Little rabbit cub, this is a desert area, isn't it in your house, and you dare to eat that thing, aren't you afraid of salting to death?" ”

Xu Lai, who had been silent, pulled Qin Kexin's arm and said, "Xiao Qin, it's better to eat less salty things, the desert consumes the most water, just eat some light food." ”

The three men sat on the sand and began to enjoy the food, seeing that the meal was almost finished, but still did not see Luo Fang come out of the sleeping bag. Yao Chunsheng couldn't sit still a little, so he pouted at Qin Kexin and said, "Qin Kexin, you go and call Assistant Luo again, why hasn't there been any movement for so long!" ”

Qin Kexin had no choice but to get up, came to Luo Fang's resting place, and shouted, "Sister Luo! Sister Luo! Wake up and have breakfast! Sister Luo, if you don't say anything, I'm going to open your sleeping bag! ”

shouted more than a dozen times in a row, but still didn't see the slightest response inside, he felt that something was not right, so he turned back to Yao Chunsheng and said: "Captain Yao, I have shouted so many times, and I still haven't woken up Assistant Luo, she can't have something wrong, right?" ”

When Yao Chunsheng heard this, he didn't have the heart to eat any more, he hurriedly stood up and walked quickly to the outside of Luo Fang's sleeping bag. "Open her sleeping bag and see what's going on!" Xu Lai hesitated for a moment, looked at Yao Chunsheng and asked, "This-can I do it?" ”

"Why not? I am your leader, I now order you to do this, I will not let you take any responsibility, hurry up! ”

The leaders have already spoken, how can the subordinates not listen? Qin Kexin stepped forward boldly with confidence, opened the lock of the sleeping bag with his hand, and then, he poked his head in, "Wow wow" and shouted: "Yao-Captain Yao, it's not good, it's not good!" ”

Yao Chunsheng was frightened, he thought that something had happened to Luo Fang, so he hurriedly came to him and stretched out his hand to separate left and right, and looked inside, however, the sleeping bag was empty, and Luo Fang didn't know where he went. "What the hell are you calling? But it scared my soul away, what about this assistant Luo? ”

Xu Lai also squeezed in front of him to take a look, and muttered in a low voice: "Hey, what a strange thing, why is Assistant Luo missing?" ”

Qin Kexin muttered, "I doubt that some beast took advantage of the night to come here and take Assistant Luo away, right?" ”

This kid really didn't talk brainily, and Yao Chunsheng was so angry that the roots of his teeth itched, and he couldn't help but get angry and said: "It's just, why didn't the beast take you away?" Until you get conclusive evidence, I hope you don't run the train with your mouth full of nonsense! ”

Yao Chunsheng thought about it carefully, he slept very early last night, woke up once in the middle of the night, and didn't hear any unusual movements, if there were really beasts in this camp, it would never be possible to only attack Luo Fang and let the others go.

"Xu Lai, let's analyze what kind of situation this should be?"

Although Xu Lai's personality is a bit wooden, and his reaction is half a beat slower than others, what Yao Chunsheng appreciates most is that he is steady and considers problems more comprehensively.

I saw Xu Lai frowning and pondering for a long time before he said slowly: "Captain Yao, in my personal judgment, there may be three reasons, the first is that Assistant Luo got up early, she likes to exercise, and it is very likely that she went running; Second, Assistant Luo is a woman after all, and when she gets up early in the morning to go to the convenience, she needs to go a little farther to find a more concealed bunker; The third kind is not easy to say! ”

Yao Chunsheng looked at him and asked puzzledly, "What do you mean?" Are you saying Assistant Luo is in danger? ”

Xu Lai first shook his head, and then nodded: "There is also this possibility!" However, according to my preliminary judgment, Assistant Luo should be in a safe state for the time being, and maybe she is in the hands of those few people right now! ”

"Huh? Xu Lai, why do I get more confused the more I listen to your words? Assistant Luo, in whose hands is she? Was she kidnapped? ”

"Professor Yao, have you forgotten the men we met yesterday? Assistant Luo should be in their camp right now! ”

"How is that possible? Assistant Luo, how did she get there? ”

"Professor Yao, it's not that you don't know Assistant Luo's character, in order to find out the truth, she can do anything!"

Luo Fang is a well-known beauty in the Institute of Biology, and she is also a rigorous and spicy female man, Yao Chunsheng certainly understands all this, so he will love Luo Fang in the depths of his heart.

Yao Chunsheng trembled his lips, looked at Xu Lai, and asked, "Xiao Xu, if that's the case, I really can't figure it out, why did she hide it from us and go elsewhere to find those people?" ”

Xu Lai thought for a moment and replied, "Professor Yao, I personally guess that maybe Assistant Luo thought that those people knew something about prehistoric creatures, so she took the initiative to approach them so that she could find out the news." If she were to tell you the truth, you wouldn't allow her to go! ”

"Alas! This woman is really unpredictable! Yao Chunsheng sighed and said to himself, and then he instructed Xu Lai and Qin Kexin: "You two hurry up and pack up your things, let's drive over there to find Assistant Luo!" ”

In a large tent in the southwest of the ancient city of Loulan, Qiao Benliang and the others were still asleep. Because of the tossing and turning for half the night last night, several people were tired and had a sore back, plus they were frightened by the monsters, and felt extremely tired, and after returning to the camp, the four of them didn't care about the difference between men and women, and got into the tent and huddled together and lay down to sleep.

When Qiao Benliang was sleeping soundly, he was awakened by a shrill car horn. He rolled over, rubbed his eyes, climbed to the entrance of the tent and pulled open a small slit, poked his head out to look out, only to see a grass-green buggy parked in the camp.

The car's horn began to honk again, making the eardrums buzz, Qiao Benliang was very angry, and he shouted: "Hey! Don't honk your horn here, it's noisy! ”

Yao Chunsheng lowered the car window, stared at Qiao Benliang with cold eyes, and said, "Hurry up and hand over Assistant Luo, otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind!" ”

When Qiao Benliang heard this, he reacted to what was going on, in this case, Luo Fang must not be allowed to appear, and he can't explain it to the other party at all, so he can only use the strategy of delaying the army and coax them away first.

He forced out a smile and said to Yao Chunsheng: "This friend, are you in the wrong place, we don't have any Assistant Luo here, please leave quickly, don't disturb us to rest, okay?" ”

Yao Chunsheng pointed his finger at him, and said in a vicious voice: "Good boy, don't give me a hard mouth and refuse to admit it, I can warn you, your behavior is a kidnapping of national scientific researchers, and the consequences are very serious. ”

Qiao Benliang expected that the other party could not be completely sure, and he was sure that Luo Fang was in his tent, maybe he was just planning to use coercion to trick him into bowing his head and compromising and handing over Luo Fang obediently. In this way, the facts are in front of him, and he can no longer escape the involvement.

"No, no, I'm afraid you'll call the police? You're really interesting, why did I come here to mess around with the water of your well, so why did I come here to mess around? ”

"Good, good! You're not letting people go, are you? Then blame me for being rude, Xu Lai, take out the satellite phone, call the police quickly, and say that there are robbers kidnapping scientific researchers! ”

As soon as Xu Lai picked up the satellite phone from the car, he heard a woman's voice shouting from inside the tent: "Slow! Professor Yao, I'm coming out! ”
