Chapter 21: Sand Digging (1)
"Little egg, what nonsense, why can't we go back? Aren't you scared kid? Hearing Zhao Aiguo's cold words, Han Dong pursed his lips and was quite disapproving.
"See for yourself, where are the footprints on the sand, and where are the directions to go back? I think we've been chasing the belly snake before, and we seem to be lost! Zhao Aiguo looked around and said dejectedly.
"Really? Don't worry, let's get out of this sandy basin first, and I'll take a good look. Han Dong put away his joking expression and strode out of the dark sand first.
Standing on a sand dune, he looked up at the desert around him, resting one hand on his brow, squinting his eyes to observe the sun, and then closing his eyes to cushion the strong dazzle of the sun's eyes.
"How's it going, have you found anything?" A few minutes later, Zhao Aiguo couldn't help it.
"Judging from our watch, we ran for about an hour; From the position of the sun, I can roughly tell that we should be southwest of the base camp. I think Professor Wang will definitely send someone out to look for us, as long as we go along the southwest direction, we will definitely be able to find the base camp" Han Dong pondered for a long time and affirmed.
"Han Dong, how did you know that we were in the southwest direction of the base camp? There is no triangulation in the sky. Zhao Aiguo was a little curious and skeptical about Han Dong's affirmation.
"You are still not convinced when you say that you are a little egg. When we first started chasing snakes, I had always been in the habit of the profession to observe the position of the sun, and now when I compare it with the sun overhead, I can roughly judge the direction of our camp. ”
"Awesome, I really can't find any other words to describe my admiration for you at the moment."
Zhao Aiguo gave Han Dong a thumbs up, and then looked down at his watch, which was a military watch specially picked up from the underground market, with direction and altitude displays.
"Let's go back to the southwest, Europe."
"It's not bad to have a little egg, and when you come to the desert archaeological expedition, you know how to make a military watch, and you have a bit of a brain." Han Dong also replied to Zhao Aiguo with a thumbs up.
Half an hour later. They met Pang Weimin and his party who came out to find them, and after frolicking for a while, they returned to the base camp.
"Grimace? Skulls? Are there any other features found? Sure enough, after hearing Han Dong and Zhao Aiguo's explanations, Professor Wang's voice unconsciously raised an octave.
"I was afraid that I would not be able to walk back after getting lost for too long, so I did not investigate further. Professor, if we don't set off now, after a long time, the desert landscape will change, and I'm afraid I won't be able to find the Shamian Basin. Han Dong shook his head.
"It's okay, we left Da Niu and a student in the base camp here. Wei Min, how do you arrange it? Professor Wang looked at the student's head, Pang Weimin.
"I'll go with Zhao Aiguo, Liu Xiangdong and Huang Jiawei will stay to take care of the two female classmates, and help Da Niu to take care of the base camp."
"Don't worry, Li Ping and Du Juan will be handed over to us to ensure that they are unscathed. The four of us are here waiting for your good news. When Liu Xiangdong heard this, he immediately expressed his attitude in a chic manner.
Huang Jiawei naturally promised repeatedly, but Li Ping quit, she wanted to accompany Pang Weimin to the sand basin, and Pang Weimin was good at calming her emotions. Seeing them bite their ears like this, the cuckoo's expression was quite unnatural.
Pang Weimin arranged it this way, thinking about the black shadow that Zhao Aiguo said, thinking of the strange things that had happened in the base camp recently, he wanted to know who was doing the ghost. Is someone really following them, or is someone shouting to catch a thief?
The group brought the necessary supplies, Bahar organized a camel caravan, and a group of 12 camel caravans set off in a mighty way.
