049 Emergencies
While I was pondering, everyone was almost packed, and after packing up, Mr. Huang refueled the car, and we began to continue to set off, moving forward along the road on the map.
And the cloud did not seem to continue to drift forward, but stayed near the canyon, and when viewed from afar, it seemed to be on the horizon, and it seemed to be close at hand.
It's a sight we've never seen in our lives, and Rose couldn't help but pull out her phone and take a few photos as a souvenir.
Seeing her playing with her phone, I remembered that I hadn't been in touch with Manli for a few days.
While there was still a signal on my mobile phone, I couldn't help but dial Manli's number, wanting to ask her about the situation in the store, after all, the store had just started, and Manli was a girl after all, and it was indeed my fault to give her all these things.
But at the moment, it is about Brother Yu's whereabouts, and Brother Haojie may not be able to cope with it alone, so I have no choice but to follow.
However, after the phone was dialed out, except for a busy tone, Manli didn't answer the phone for a long time!
Manly didn't answer the phone, which made me very nervous.
I always felt that there was something strange about things, so I sent a text message to Manli, so that she could see the message, and contact me when she had time, after sending the text message, I was still a little uneasy, and then sent her a WeChat, the content was similar, after sending these things, I still felt a little worried.
So I told Brother Haojie about the things that couldn't be contacted by Manli.
After all, Brother Haojie's connections are all over the country, and with his connections, it should be okay to find someone to help me contact Manli.
Even if you can't contact Manli, you can still see what's going on in the store, at least it's much better than being in a hurry now.
So Brother Haojie didn't hesitate, he directly dialed the phone and contacted several forces, asking them to find Manli, and if there was anything in the store that needed help, he would also take a hand.
Seeing that Brother Haojie was out of the horse, I was a little relieved.
Originally, everyone's atmosphere was more depressed, but now there is something about Manli, my mood has become more heavy, and I didn't say anything more all the way, Mr. Huang tried to ease the atmosphere at first, and said some jokes that were not funny, but everyone's mind didn't seem to be here, and in the end he had to give up.
In this way, the car has been moving into the depths of the desert, since more than a day ago, we have not seen any pedestrians and vehicles, and we have walked here even more barren land, as if the god of life has never been to this dead desert.
Then even if there is no desert on the way, there should be some camels.
But perhaps due to the strong wind and sand, we didn't even see a camel on the way.
The further I go, the more gray the sky becomes, I don't know if all the wind and sand have been rolled up to the sky, look up, the gray is boundless, people will feel a little desperate.
Originally, I thought that if I continued like this, I would be stupid even if I didn't go crazy, but as I walked, I noticed that some buildings made of yellow sand began to appear on the side of the road in the distance.
These should be the remains of the Gobi Desert, which is known as the Yadan landform.
Brother Haojie tells us that when we see this, it proves that we have entered the Desert of Death Lop Nur.
Lop Nur was originally a lake in the southeast of China's Uygur Autonomous Region, with an altitude of about 780 meters, located at the lowest point in the Tarim Basin.
Before 330 A.D., there were many lakes here, and the northwest side of Loulan City was the throat of the famous Silk Road, when Lop Nur was the second largest saltwater lake in China, but now it has become a barren land, looking from afar, except for the endless Gobi Desert, there is not a single grass, a stream, and the highest temperature in summer can even be as high as 71 degrees.
I looked up and saw that there was not a single bird flying in the sky, and it seemed that there really were no birds that could cross it.
This time I also did my homework, and the Internet said that there are still some other plants here, such as poplar, robusta, and licorice, but when I looked up like this, I found nothing.
There were no camels, red deer, or wild boars to be seen.
However, it was very lively in the past, and now it has become the most popular place for Chinese and foreign explorers.
When I came here, it was already close to evening, so the temperature was not particularly high.
To be on the safe side, although there is no big wind and sand now, safety comes first, so we didn't rush in.
The car stopped on the outskirts of Lop Nur.
To date, countless explorers have driven across the desert, but they have not reached the desert, the deepest part of the desert of death, which no one can enter.
During this day-long trip, we didn't find any water currents, and I have to say that this is indeed a forbidden place for explorers, fortunately, we are very well prepared this time, especially the water, which is enough to support the return.
This night, everyone took turns to rest and be on guard, but nothing strange happened like the night before.
By three or four o'clock in the morning the next day, it was already dawn in the desert.
When the first rays of the morning sun shine on the desert, the whole desert seems to be shrouded in a layer of golden light, as if we are no longer a piece of yellow sand, but a large field of gold.
Although the scenery of the desert looks deserted, it also has a unique flavor.
But we didn't have time to enjoy the magnificent scenery, because by noon we had to find a place to camp, otherwise the sun would shine directly on us and dehydrate us.
Although everyone's atmosphere is a little dull, but this road has been seen to leave a trace of human traces, although the wind and sand have blown, but there are many cars on the road in front of us, although these models do not seem to have been formed in the past two days, but it also shows that this road has been walked.
Next to the workshop, I could even see some household garbage, mineral water bottles, plastic bags, and even some dilapidated tents, and it was clear that there were people who had camped here and left their belongings here.
After walking for about two or three hours, there was no road in front of us, but a large lake of small crystalline pebbles, forming a stone lake.
Although the stones here look crystal clear, in fact, there were so many such stones in the past due to the flow of water, and there is nothing to make a fuss about.
Originally, I thought we would drive directly through this pebble lake, but Mr. Huang stopped the car.
