I had an idea that the compass might be wrong in certain situations, so I followed the direction of the setting sun.

Moreover, I noticed my footprints, now the wind and sand are not big, the footprints can be preserved for a while, every time I walk, I look back at the footprints, if the footprints are upright, there are no crooked circles, then it proves that I am walking in a straight line.

Anything can fool me, but my own footprints never fool me.

I drank a little water and continued on my way. After I started walking around this time, the wind was lighter again, so that the footprints could be retained for a longer time.

I dropped my compass and stared at the direction of the sun setting, and every few dozen meters I walked looked back at the footprints I had left as I walked. A row of footprints can't be straight like a ruler, but the whole is still in a straight line, so that I have a bottom in my heart, as long as I keep walking like this, I will never go around a certain place in circles all the time.

I walked for about two hours from the time the sun went down, and the moon rose, and the moonlight and stars were intertwined, and the silvery white light sprinkled over the endless desert. I think it's about the same time, and I should stop and find a slightly more suitable place to get ready for camping.

In this kind of place, there is really no special camping site, you can only find sand dunes, stop on the more empty side of the sand of the dunes, and set up a tent. Because the sand side of the dunes is empty, it is generally leeward.

However, after walking so far, I didn't see the sand dunes, and I wondered if I should continue walking forward and try to set up the campsite in a more stable place, so that I could sleep better at night.

However, just as I was looking left and right for the sand dunes under the moonlight, I suddenly froze.

About twenty meters ahead, I saw the entrance to the clay pipe.

Hell yes, hell really!

I stumbled back and looked at my footprints as I came. In the moonlight, I could clearly see my own footprints behind me, as well as the footprints of camels, almost in a straight line.

What's going on? I'm walking in a straight line, but walking around, why did I go around to the entrance of the pottery pipe?

I felt a chill all over my body, as if I had fallen into an ice cellar for three or nine days. There are some things that you don't need to try all the time, and at this moment, I have a bad feeling that no matter how I go, I may be going around in circles here.

Three times before and after, I walked for more than two hours each time, and the speed was basically constant. This shows that I kept paying attention to the route I was walking and tried my best to avoid detours, but I still went around in circles for more than two hours.

I stood there and thought carefully about the previous three circles, but I didn't notice any flaws in the process.

Is it possible that there are no flaws, but they are going around in circles here?

I'm a little nervous, although there is still a lot of food now, but how long has it been? It's always going to be gone. And Xiao Mao told me that in this kind of area, there is absolutely no water to dig up, and there is no sand with moisture, how long can camels live without drinking water at all? If I give water to the camels, it's only enough for them to drink.

I'd rather have someone shoot than die here.

After thinking about it for a long time, I suddenly felt that if I let go of the camel and let it go on its own, and I followed behind, what would be the result?

I perked up and thought this should be the way to go.

I drove the first camel and let it go forward, then retreated to the end.

The three camels still maintained their usual posture and maintained their usual speed, walking forward in the desert where the moonlight was shining. I don't drive them away, I don't deliberately let them go in a certain direction, my purpose now is to ask for the phenomenon of going around in circles.

As I walked with the camels, I looked back at the footprints we had left behind. I can't be mistaken, although the camel is not driven, but the camel led by the camel will always go in one direction if it encounters unexpected circumstances or external interference. Therefore, the footprints behind him are still roughly in a straight line.

I kept looking at my watch and looking at the time it took to walk. The night wind fluctuated loud and small, and the whistling sound sounded like someone was crying, giving me goosebumps all over my body.

Time passed minute by minute, and after more than two hours, I began to get nervous, although I could see the straight footprints when I looked back, but with the experience of the first three times, I still couldn't let go.

Suddenly, I stopped again, and the camel was still slowly moving forward, but I could already see the entrance to the clay pipe more than twenty meters away.

At this moment, I was going crazy. The foreboding feeling in my heart before is getting heavier and heavier, is it that no matter what method I use, I can't get out of this circle?

I really can't tell what's going on, it's against common sense and what I know.

I stayed for a long time before I stepped forward and grabbed the camel in the lead. I was looking for a place to camp, but now I don't even feel sleepy. There is only one thought that goes back and forth in my head: what if I can't get out all the time?

Human power is limited after all, even if I don't sleep all night, keep trying, keep walking, what will be the result in the end?

I feel that the end result is nothing more than some effort.

I sat on the ground and reached for a cigarette, but the hand holding the cigarette was trembling slightly. Some dangers may not kill oneself all at once, but the consequences of such dangers are more painful and serious than directly killing oneself.

I was really scared.

I smoked a cigarette and convinced myself to calm down first, because the more messy it was, the worse it would be. When I finished smoking a cigarette, I lit another one.

As I smoked my second cigarette, another thought occurred to me. People rely on their eyes to see and walk, and it is terrible to have no eyes, however, in some cases, the eyes can give people an illusion, which leads to misjudgment.

If I don't care about anything now, and I just lead the camel, blindfolded, and walk around, then the visual information that my eyes produce is completely non-existent. Walking like that, there is no fixed direction, and it may not go against the route you are taking. But now I don't care if the route is correct or not, I just want to get out of this ghost place that people keep going around in circles.

When this idea germinated in my heart and matured, I felt that I had found the crux of the problem this time. I don't care if there is anything boring, and I don't care if there are hidden mysteries along the way, anyway, I am blindfolded, my eyes are black, I don't look at anything, I don't think about anything.

I jumped up from the sand, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and stomped on it. I'm not a particularly stinky person, but at this point, I'd love to praise my wit.

I feel that, according to what I think, there is a 99.99% chance that I can break through the current shackles.

I immediately got ready, blindfolded, and pulled the camel around in circles. I turned at least thirty or forty times, and finally I was confused with a camel.

I stopped, and I felt like I had drunk high, and my brain was about to be thrown out of my skull. The intense feeling of vertigo lasted only a moment, and when I recovered, I walked away with the camel.

I don't care which direction I'm going, I'm confident, and I'm sure that by the time I open my eyes again, I'll be out of this hellish place that keeps people going around in circles.

I walked with confidence, just like walking on the field road in my hometown in the countryside, and my mood was much more relaxed than before.

However, the feeling of having a black eye is very, very bad, and it can make people feel gloomy. The eyes are the most important organ in the human body, and without them, they will suffer excruciatingly.

At this time, I couldn't tell why, but I suddenly thought of the blind man in the abyss of the Danmeng Basin. The blind man may not have been blind, but he slowly became blind because he had lived in the abyss of no sunlight for a long time.

How can one person's courage and tenacity reach such a degree?

Maybe it was at this moment that I felt that the blind man was actually a very remarkable person.

As I walked, I silently calculated the approximate time, and if I had a clear mind, I would have a good idea of time. I can estimate that this time it was probably an hour and a half away.

The feeling of being blindfolded all the time made me feel awkward beyond words, but I endured it. I had to verify that it worked.

With this in mind, I walked for almost an hour. When I estimated that the time was almost up, I stopped and reached for the clothes that were covering my eyes.

At this moment, I was a little nervous, but I was still very confident that the problem of going around in circles had been solved.

When my eyes were able to see my surroundings again, it was as if someone had punched me head-on, and Venus was flying in front of me.

Not only was Venus in front of me, but my nerves seemed to be out of order. The first three times I walked around, and when I finally stopped, I was always some distance away from the entrance of the pottery pipe, but this time I walked blindfolded for more than two hours, and I actually walked directly to the entrance of the pottery pipe.

I should even be glad that I stopped at the right time, if my brain was pumping and I dared to slow down for a minute, I might have lost my footing and fallen into the clay pipe without seeing anything.

When I looked at the entrance of the clay pipe in front of me, my heart sank to the soles of my feet. What I thought worked didn't work in the end.

However, I was puzzled and couldn't understand why no matter how I walked, even if I walked blindfolded, I ended up still going in circles.
