In the morning light, the old jeep drove the Tang Feng five people all the way on the Gobi Desert, and they hit the road again, just to find the city that was submerged in the depths of the desert.

As Makarov had seen more than thirty years ago, not long after the jeep drove west into the desert, their car began to jolt violently over a rolling stretch of sand dunes, until it jumped over a tall sand hill and the jeep rushed down the sand hill and came to a halt on a vast flat field. Everything was calm, there was no roar of engines, no people, no animals, no wind, all the silence on the desolate Gobi Desert, there was not a trace of life in sight, and everyone had a strange feeling that they had come to another planet.

"Are we still on Earth?" Tang Feng let out the same emotion as Makarov back then.

Makarov stared around in a daze, muttering to himself: "Yes! …… Yes, this is it...... Here I am again! ”

Han Jiang held the steering wheel in his hand, watched everything here vigilantly, and didn't say a word, for a long time, he glanced at Makarov and asked, "Do you want to continue west?" ”

Makarov nodded, "Yes, continue west, and it won't be long before you see a large red mountain range, which is the Valley of the Wild Wolves." ”

"Sit down!" After Han Jiang finished speaking, he stepped on the accelerator and sped westward, Han Jiang stared ahead, his eyes were still observing the surrounding Gobi Desert from time to time, he was checking the ground, those rut marks that followed him, would they still be shocked here?

Tang Feng and Yelena were also looking at the Gobi Desert, "Will those rut marks appear here?" Tang Feng stared at Han Jiang with a hint of worry.

"No, at least not yet, we've already hit them hard in the bunker." Han Jiang is quite confident.

"You're so confident, you know that that terrible Stephkin is gone, and we haven't found his body!"

"Does it matter? Even if he ran away alone, what could he do? ”

"This is different from before, this place is getting closer and closer to Hanhai Mi City, and Stephkin may be nearby, or even ...... Even the generals are here! ”

When Tang Feng mentioned the word "general", everyone looked around in unison, the surrounding area was still an endless Gobi Desert, without any sign of life, Han Jiang coughed lightly, "Regardless of whether the general will appear here or not, at least this place is safe for the time being, have you found any other rut marks on the ground?" ”

"Nope." Tang Feng shook his head slightly.

"So we have to hurry up and take advantage of the fact that those black-clothed people have suffered heavy losses and are unable to enter the Wild Wolf Valley for a while, and find Hanhai Mi City first." Han Jiang said firmly.

Yelena said worriedly, "I'm worried that the gang will send people from both sides, and if we haven't found them here, it doesn't mean that they won't enter from the south of the Wolf Valley." ”

As soon as Yelena's voice fell, Liang Yuan shouted, "No! That's impossible. Yelena, you haven't been there, there...... It's horrible! The terrible black dust storm, the terrifying Devil's City, the desert that makes people unable to distinguish the direction, and ...... And wearing ......"

Liang Yuan stopped talking and swallowed the words that came to her mouth, but everyone in the car understood what she meant, and after a period of silence, Tang Feng spoke, "Yelena's worries are justified, don't forget Zhao Yong's death, and there is another mysterious rut mark." ”

When Tang Feng mentioned Zhao Yong's death, he could clearly feel Han Jiang's sturdy body swaying slightly, and then their car also shook gently on the desolate Gobi Desert.

"Even if they split up, I don't think it would be difficult for them to enter the Wolf Valley from the south." Liang Yuan couldn't believe that someone had already entered the Wild Wolf Valley.

"In short, we must not only speed up and find Hanhai Mi City before them, but also be ready to fight those guys, they will definitely not give up, they may be very close to us, very close!"

As soon as Makarov finished speaking, a majestic red mountain appeared in front of them.

The jeep drove close to the Red Mountains, and there were many large and small gravel blocks under the mountain range, Han Jiang was in a hurry, constantly playing the steering wheel to avoid these gravel blocks, but the gravel blocks were too dense, Han Jiang used all his strength, and could only avoid those larger stones, and the jeep was bumpy up and down, constantly being upside down by some smaller stones.

There were several boulders in front of him, as if they had rolled down from a nearby mountain beam, Han Jiang slammed the steering wheel and bypassed a boulder, but he didn't expect that two boulders appeared at the same time behind him, and then he wanted to bypass the boulder, it was impossible, Han Jiang quickly judged the distance between the two boulders, he wanted to pass through the middle of the two boulders, but when he drove to the front, he found that the gap between the two boulders could not allow the jeep to pass at all!

Seeing that the old jeep was about to crash into a boulder and shatter his bones, Han Jiang slammed on the brakes and finally parked the car in front of the two boulders, the bumper in front of the car had touched one of the boulders, Tang Feng shouted in horror, "How did you drive the car?" ”

Han Jiang didn't pay attention to Tang Feng, turned his face and asked Makarov, "Old Ma, did you come here like this back then?" ”

Makarov nodded, "Yes, it was like that then, the mountain was full of these large and small rubble, and I remember that Buldenko very skillfully avoided it. ”

"Oh? Was the gravel so dense at that time? Han Jiang couldn't believe it, he thought that his driving skills were unmatched.

Makarov observed for a moment and said, "It seems that there is more rubble here than there used to be." ”

"What I said!" Han Jiang seemed to have regained his confidence, "Think about it again, did your car drive into the Wild Wolf Valley back then?" ”

"No, but I remember that Bultenko drove the car under a boulder at the mouth of the valley, and further on, the ground was full of rubble and bones, and it was difficult for the car to go any further." Makarov recalled.

"And how far are we from Taniguchi?"

"There's another section, even if you see that boulder! I have the impression that the boulder is very large, more than ten times the size of the two boulders in front of you, and it is very obvious that it lies across the valley mouth. ”

Han Jiang had no choice but to carefully reverse the car first, and then bypass the two boulders, and then continue to move towards the valley mouth. However, the jeep bumped for two kilometers, and still did not see the boulder blocked at the mouth of the valley that Makarov said, Tang Feng couldn't help but wonder, "Old horse, are we going wrong?" ”

Han Jiang slowed down, and Makarov stared intently at the surrounding scenery, the terrain on both sides gradually increased, and the red ridges exuded a mysterious aura in the blazing sun.

"That's right, this is it, this should be the way into Wolf Valley." Makarov muttered to himself as he recalled.

"But what about the boulder you're talking about?" Han Jiang asked a little impatiently.

"Boulder? Boulder ......" Makarov was equally suspicious, and suddenly, he shouted, "Han, stop!" Stop the car! ”

Makarov's shout startled everyone, Han Jiang was puzzled, and hurriedly stopped, Makarov jumped out of the car, walked a few steps, and came to a large gravel next to the car, Tang Feng also followed, he saw that this was a very irregular ochre-red gravel, Makarov looked at it for a long time, did not speak, and came to another piece of gravel nearby, Tang Feng found that this piece of gravel was very similar to the one just now, at this time, he found that Makarov stretched out his hand, rubbed a little lime on the gravel, looked at it, and sniffed again, Then he slowly stood up, looked around again, and finally Makarov said disappointedly, "It seems that someone has taken the lead!" ”

"Oh! The early bird gets the worm? Who? Tang Feng was puzzled and asked.

Everyone was also confused, and they all stared at Makarov, but Yelena spoke first, "I seem to smell a smell here that shouldn't be there." ”

Makarov nodded, and then said slowly: "Yelena, I think you must have smelled *. ”

"Yes!" Yelena nodded.

"I've been wondering, where did the boulder that was blocked in the mouth of the valley go?" When Makarov said this, he looked at Han Jiang and Tang Feng, and then pointed to the few pieces of broken stone on the ground and said, "This is the boulder, but it has been broken into several pieces." ”

Tang Feng looked at the gravel on the ground in surprise, and then looked at Makarov, "What do you mean...... How many pieces has that boulder been blown into? ”

Makarov nodded heavily.

"Was it a recent bombing?" Liang Yuan couldn't believe it.

Makarov nodded again and remained silent, Yelena looked at it and deduced: "It must have been blown up recently, and there are still some unburned * on the rocks." ”

"I can't believe that there is no trace of human activity on the Gobi Desert, which was still dead and silent just now, and it is very likely that it is our old opponent!" Makarov said, shaking his head.

"But I didn't find any rut marks on them along the way!" Liang Yuan looked at his feet in confusion, Tang Feng also felt strange, took a few steps forward, and suddenly, a rut mark appeared faintly on the surface of the fine yellow sand on the ground, the rut mark seemed to come from another direction, and after stopping here for a while, it extended all the way to the depths of the canyon.

A chill rose on Tang Feng's back, and the shattered boulders and the increasingly clear rut marks on the ground pulled his thoughts back to reality.

"I can't believe those guys can recover so quickly after a heavy blow." Han Jiang couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems that their goals are in line with ours." Tang Feng judged.

"This means that they have also mastered the map behind the jade interstitial screen, and they can see the map." Han Jiang said suddenly.

Han Jiang's words shocked everyone, "If that's the case, it's too terrible!" Liang Yuan couldn't help but cry out.

Han Jiang turned to look at Liang Yuan and said, "So there is not much time left for us." ”

Makarov frowned, his deep eyes looking at the valley, the rut mark stretching all the way down, as if he had driven into the valley of the wolf, "But...... But the Wolf Valley car can't drive in? Makarov muttered to himself, his feet unconsciously walked forward, suddenly, a crisp sound of "click" pulled his thoughts back to his feet, Makarov slowly bent down, gently brushed off the fine yellow sand under his feet, picked up a piece of something like a stone from the sand, looked at it carefully, Tang Feng came to Makarov's side, and asked: "What is this?" ”

"Bones!" Makarov's voice was unusually calm.

"Bones?" Tang Feng was taken aback. He leaned down and brushed away the whole yellow sand, and a rib that had been broken into several pieces appeared at his feet, this was a human rib, because the wind and sand had eroded for a long time, this rib had turned from white to withered yellow.

"That's right, this ...... This is the Wolf Valley where I first came, and the valley mouth is ahead! I...... I will never forget this place...... Mountains of bones and bizarre totems, and ...... There is also the hideous face of Cadet No. A711209. Makarov said thoughtfully.

Everyone gathered around, and Yelena quickly judged: "This bone is at least a few hundred years old, and it should have just been crushed by a car and broken into several pieces." ”

"Those people shouldn't have gone far!" Han Jiang Road.

"Then what are we hesitating about, chase after us!" Liang Yuan shouted.

When everyone returned to the car, Makarov admonished: "Be careful, you must be careful, go further and you will see a horror that you will never forget." ”

Everyone's mind was reminded of the terrible scene that Makarov had recounted, and Makarov admonished: "Also, Burdenko and I started from here and entered the valley on foot, and now it seems that there are cars driving in all the time, and I am worried about ......."

Makarov didn't finish speaking, everyone already understood his concern, Han Jiang slowly started the jeep and cautiously headed into the valley, they kept being turned upside down by the rubble on the ground and scattered bones, and the sound of the wheels crushing bones made everyone's hearts palpitate. Tang Feng found that the valley in front of him was gradually bending, and he couldn't see the situation ahead, Han Jiang drove around a corner, and he suddenly found that the sand in front of him became wet, and the mysterious rut mark appeared prominently on the wet sand, "It seems that this place was originally a river." ”

No one accosted, because Makarov's face became more and more gloomy, Tang Feng knew that terrible place was about to appear, and sure enough, there were more and more bones on the ground, there were people, as well as cows, sheep and other animals, as if they were afraid of alarming these sleeping souls, Han Jiang skillfully bypassed some of the still intact bones on the ground, and finally he parked the car in front of a bone wall made of layers of bones, which blocked their way.

Tang Feng had already seen the dry corpses and Jingguan in Qianhu Town before, but he was still shocked by the scene in front of him, but what shocked him even more was that in the middle of this tall bone wall, a passage was actually opened, and the width of the passage seemed to be only for one car to pass through, and the rut mark on the ground drove into this passage that was opened from the accumulated white bones.

"No, it's ...... What's going on? Makarov was more shocked than everyone else, he had expected the group to appear here, so he drew his gun when Han Jiang drove into the valley mouth, but the sight in front of him was something he did not expect in any way.

"Old Ma, did you come here back then? Didn't you talk about this passage? Tang Feng asked Makarov rhetorically.

Makarov shook his head incessantly, still unable to believe what he saw, "No, back then, this place was so full of bones that it was impassable, and there was no such passage. ”

Everyone fell silent again, everyone pulled out their guns, got out of the car, stepped on the broken bones on the ground, and walked to the bone wall, Tang Feng picked up a sheep skull casually, he found that as Makarov mentioned, there was a mysterious symbol in the middle of the sheep skull, an eagle stood on the body of a wolf, Tang Feng's body trembled slightly, and he found this symbol on another cow skull, a strange dark red symbol, is it really the totem of an ancient tribe?

Tang Feng suddenly thought of the totem on the rock wall that Makarov had mentioned, he looked up, looking for the cliffs on both sides, Tang Feng found that Makarov was staring at the red cliff on the right, Tang Feng followed Makarov's gaze, and found that on the red rock wall, a strange white paint painted a huge pattern, that familiar and unfamiliar pattern, at this moment, the huge white pattern in the noon sun glowing strangely, just like when it was painted, it was breathtaking.

"Anything new?" Tang Feng asked Makarov softly.

Makarov shook his head, "No. Suddenly, Makarov turned his gaze to the open passage in front of him, "Except for here, this terrible passage, everything else seems to be the same as it was back then." ”

At this time, Han Jiang and Yelena walked over from the side of the passage, Han Jiang threw away half of the bone in his hand, and said, "We have carefully investigated, and this passage was blown up with *." ”

"*Blown up?" Tang Feng felt incredible.

Makarov nodded and said, "It seems that Han Jiang, your judgment is right, these people must have understood the ancient map, so they spent a lot of effort to blow up a passage here." ”

"Don't be so serious! I think that's a good thing for us, isn't it possible for us to enter the Valley of the Wolves through this blasted passage? Liang Yuan looked at everyone with big eyes.

Makarov nodded, "Yes, we also enter the Wolf Valley through this passage. ”

Everyone got back into the car, but Tang Feng was a little hesitant, Han Jiang shouted to Tang Feng to get in the car, Tang Feng looked at Makarov hesitantly, "Old Ma, didn't you tell us that the Wild Wolf Valley is extremely dangerous?" You've also encountered a strange fog, why are you ...... today?"

"Yes, Wolf Valley is extremely dangerous, and these bones are just the tip of the iceberg, so we all need to be careful. As for the strange fog that suddenly came back then, I still can't explain it, but I think it's so dry here, there shouldn't be a fog rising! ”

"Old Ma, what you said is contradictory, you just said that you should be careful, and you picked up a fluke mentality!" Tang Feng joked.

Makarov was just about to say something, but Han Jiang interrupted him and warned everyone, "Don't have the slightest luck, everyone listens to the first half of Lao Ma's sentence, plus twelve points of caution." ”

As he spoke, Han Jiang slowly reversed the car first, and then suddenly accelerated, rushing headlong into the terrifying white bone passage.

Tang Feng didn't dare to look at the white bones that roared past him, but the vibration of the car still kept shaking the bones on both sides of them, causing Liang Yuan to let out a burst of screams.

A person's skull smashed heavily on Tang Feng's body, Tang Feng, who was trying his best to restrain himself, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and also screamed, his scream lasted for two minutes and thirty-six seconds, and when he found that Han Jiang had stopped the car and everyone was looking at him, he stopped screaming embarrassedly.

"You're so fragile right now!" Han Jiang sneered twice and stared at Tang Feng.

Tang Feng wanted to refute a few words, but he opened his mouth, but swallowed the words again, because Tang Feng found that they had driven out of the narrow passage, and when he looked back at the mountains of white bones, it was still creepy, and Tang Feng hurriedly threw the skull that fell in his arms out of the car.

"Is this also a Kyoto temple?" Han Jiang stared at the pile of white bones and asked Tang Feng.

"It's hard to say now, but it's certain that there must have been a fierce war here back then, to be precise, it was the Mongol army and the Hanhai Micheng Dang Xiang people." Tang Feng replied unexpectedly.

"Don't care about these bones, let's study this rut mark, this is the threat of our reality!" Yelena reminded everyone.

Tang Feng and Han Jiang then turned their gaze back to the rut mark on the ground, and they found that the rut mark had also passed through the narrow passage and had been extending along the valley, leaving countless broken bones on the ground that had been crushed into powder.

"This must be a terrible car, crushing these bones into powder, when I passed through this passage just now, I was afraid that our classic car would be punctured by the bones on the ground and the tires, then we will stop cooking!"

Han Jiang stared at the rut marks on the ground for a long time, and finally such a sentence came out, which choked Yelena speechless, and held it for a long time before Yelena said: "Don't worry, the car I am looking for will definitely be fine." ”

"Did you notice it, the ground here is getting wetter and wetter, I'm sure the water table here is so high that it won't take you a few times to dig down to get water!" Tang Feng saw the clue.

Yelena nodded, "It's a pity that Han Jiang's pig head can't be seen." ”

"Who said I couldn't see it, doesn't this explain the fog that the old horse encountered back then?" Han Jiang was a little unconvinced.

"Fog? Han Jiang, what did you think of? Makarov asked.

"The fog you encountered back then is enough to show that the climate in the Wild Wolf Valley is changeable and extremely weird, from the outside, the vast Gobi Desert is very dry, but after entering this valley, you will find that there are traces of water on the ground, and the further you go in, the wetter the ground becomes, I am sure that the depths of the Wild Wolf Valley are definitely a humid place, and there will even be rivers or water bubbles."

Tang Feng seemed to think of something, and planned Han Jiang's words, and exclaimed: "Oasis of Death!" ”

"Oasis of Death?" Everyone's thoughts returned to Stephen's description before he died.

"Yes, according to Stephen's statement before his death, Ma Changguo and they once arrived at the oasis of death, combined with the dark green * domain where Hanhai Mi City is located behind the jade interstitial, we can conclude that Hanhai Mi City should be in an oasis, which shows that there must have been another vibrant scene in the Wild Wolf Valley back then; But I always thought that because of the deterioration of the climate, the oasis was probably no longer there, and it had become a desert, but now it seems that there is probably an oasis there, and even if the oasis is gone, it should be a moist place with water. ”

Everyone nodded, and their thoughts flew to the mysterious oasis, perhaps the damp sand that appeared in front of them was moistened by the water flowing from the oasis!

"Let's keep walking, we won't suddenly encounter a big river, right?" Liang Yuan stared nervously at the deep valley in front of him, where there was no end in sight.

"Maybe, but someone is ahead of us now, so we don't have to worry, just follow the rut print!" Han Jiang started the jeep again and slowly drove deeper into the valley.

The further you went deeper into the valley, the fewer bones there were on the ground, and finally the bones on the ground disappeared completely. But Tang Feng noticed that the mountains on both sides were getting taller and narrower, and finally they were completely covered by the shadows cast by the tall peaks, and entered the dark depths of the valley.

Tang Feng looked up, only a gap above his head could see the daylight, proving that it was still daytime at the moment, Tang Feng didn't expect that the terrain here would change so drastically, if there were ambushes on the mountains on both sides at this time, they would definitely die! Thinking of this, Tang Feng's heart hung up, and he also somewhat understood why it was difficult for the Mongolian iron cavalry to conquer those unruly party members in Hanhai Mi City, and the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain must have helped the party members back then.

The fine sand on the ground gradually turned into muddy ravines, and the valley became more and more humid, and Han Jiang drove the jeep through these ravines with difficulty, but fortunately the old car was still solid and did not sink into the depths of this dark valley.

"How long will it take to get out of this damn place!" Han Jiang cursed. But no one answered him, for no one knew how long the narrow valley would be.

Tang Feng stared at the rut mark in front of him, the rut mark still extended forward, indicating that those guys passed here safely, so there is no need to worry too much about the danger now, thinking of this, Tang Feng put his heart in his stomach slightly.

Sure enough, they were not ambushed, no gravel fell overhead, and after about half an hour, the jeep finally carried them out of the narrow valley. The front suddenly opened up, and returned to the way it had been when it first entered the valley, and the mountains on both sides suddenly became shorter, no longer steep, but gentle and wide.

The eldest family breathed a sigh of relief, there was no time to rest, and continued to hurry, the wide valley, without those terrible bones, and without the damp and muddy ravines, a smooth road led straight ahead, Han Jiang accelerated the speed of the car, chasing the rut marks in front of him and continued to move forward. After a while, Tang Feng found that the valley was getting wider and wider, and the mountains on both sides became low like small mounds, but in front of the wide area, mounds of different shapes appeared, like strange castles, could it be that he came to a devil's city again?

Don't allow Tang Feng to think too much, the jeep plunged into this magical mound, large and small mounds have different shapes, and there is no end in sight, Tang Feng suddenly shouted, "Stop!" ”

Tang Feng's shout startled everyone, Han Jiang hurriedly stopped the car and asked Tang Feng sharply, "What are you doing?" What did you find? ”

"The woman in the mask ......," Tang Feng muttered to himself.

"What? Where is it? Everyone screamed, and Han Jiang and Liang Yuan reacted particularly violently, because the woman wearing the mask left too deep an impression on them.

However, everyone looked around for a long time, except for the large and small mounds, there was no woman wearing a mask, "Damn, you are overly nervous and hallucinating, right?" Han Jiang scolded Tang Feng.

Tang Feng slowly shook his head at this time, "No, she's not here." ”

"That's why I said you were hallucinating!" Han Jiang said angrily.

"You don't think it's like ...... here"

Before Tang Feng finished speaking, Liang Yuan continued, "It's very similar to the devil city we found in the northwest of Yue'er Spring!" ”

"Yes, almost identical!" Tang Feng nodded and said, "Actually, this is also a Yadan landform, so when we drove in here just now, I suddenly had a strange feeling, thinking that we had come to the Devil City near Yue'er Spring again!" ”

"But there's no masked woman here, so don't be surprised!" Han Jiang was also observing the surrounding environment.

"Conditioned reflex, I'm really afraid that woman will run out again and be scary!"

"Could this be the Yadan landform you entered in the south of Wolf Valley?" Yelena asked Han Jiang rhetorically.

Han Jiang observed for a long time and shook his head, "Although it is very similar, if you look closely, it is still not the same as there." ”

Tang Feng also echoed, "Yes, I was also thinking about this question just now, we had already deduced from the ancient map that Yue'er Spring was just south of the Wild Wolf Valley, so I wondered if we had walked out of the Wild Wolf Valley and returned to the Yadan landform on the southern line, but I calmed down and carefully recalled the ancient map, combined with some of the information we already had, the Wild Wolf Valley would never be so short, and it was not just a valley." ”

Makarov took Tang Feng's words and said, "Yes. At the beginning, Burtenko told me that the old herdsman once told him that the so-called Wolf Valley is not actually a valley, but composed of many large and small valleys with different terrains and variable climates. ”

"So we have reason to believe that the valley we walked through just now is just one of the many valleys in the Wild Wolf Valley, and we will never have walked out of the Wild Wolf Valley and returned to the Yadan landform on the southern route." Tang Feng further inferred.

"In other words, here, there is also a Yadan landform on the northern line?" Yelena looked around hesitantly.

Tang Feng nodded, "Now it seems that this is the case." ”

"The Yadan area is full of tuyeres, so it's likely that we will encounter a dust storm here?" Yelena said worriedly.

Yelena's words suddenly lowered Tang Feng, Han Jiang and Liang Yuan's mood to the bottom, and they were no longer willing to encounter another terrible black dust storm.

"Then we must get out of here! But...... But where do we go next? Liang Yuan looked at Tang Feng at a loss.

Tang Feng looked at Han Jiang, Han Jiang patted the steering wheel, "You guys are verbose, what is there to worry about, that rut mark is still there, we just need to follow them and it will be fine!" ”

Sure enough, Tang Feng saw that the rut mark that had been accompanying them was still winding in front of their car, and it seemed that he had not encountered any accidents, Tang Feng's heart was slightly settled, and Han Jiang drove and continued to drive forward along the rut mark.
