Chapter 433: Dune

What is the very unlikely thing?

For example, there are all kinds of human waste floating on the surface of the sea, including plastic bottles, cans, wood scraps, foam flakes, etc.

These things came together inadvertently while floating, and then they never separated, and then they came together more and more, and finally formed an aircraft carrier of their own.

Doesn't that seem a little ridiculous? But in fact, the birth of life on Earth is even more absurd than this - if you use probability to calculate, it is simply negligible.

In the universe that we can observe, all kinds of celestial bodies are densely packed, and the earth is only one billionth of them, and all kinds of matter and dust are also counted in billions.

One in a billion, with a probability of one in a billion, gathered in a place of one in a billion, and finally formed life. This kind of thing, in other words, is called a miracle.

So, the formation of life is a miracle, and the formation of a desert is a miracle.

And now, this miracle of mine is struggling to climb on the miracle.

Hiking in the desert is incredibly difficult, but climbing sand dunes is a hundred times harder than hiking.

The sand under your feet is soft, so there is no point of focus when you step on it.

My shoes, pants, and even my jacket were filled with sand, and I wore them like I wasn't wearing them. I had to use my hands and feet to crawl up the slopes of the dunes. Even so, sometimes if you take one step up, you will slide down ten steps, and you have to turn over and climb again.

What sustained me to continue climbing was not only the desire to fight for breath, but also the fact that there was no turning back at this moment.

I only remembered the "virtual point" in the sky in the direction I was going, but I forgot to mark a point for returning to the oasis.

So, even if I retreat now, I can't find a way back. Since this is the case, then simply go forward!

I slid down, got up again, took two steps, took another step back, and by the time I had exhausted all my strength, and finally stood on the "ridge" of the dunes, my mouth was full of sand, and my mouth was not only dry, but I was already exhausted.

But the reality in my eyes almost made me despair mentally.

There is a lyric called "Ask if this mountain is higher in the world, and a mountain is higher than a mountain", and it turns out that this sentence is also used on the sand dunes.

When I stood on top of this huge dune, I realized that it was indeed very high, but it was really just a step of the larger sand dunes behind.

In front of me, there was a taller and bigger hill.

There is a lyric called "When you cross a hill, you find that there is no one waiting", and I crossed the hill and found that there was another hill waiting.

I gritted my teeth and stood up, pulled out my water bottle, and poured a few sips of water in quick succession.

The satisfaction of drinking water in the desert is like taking a credit card with an unlimited overdraft and someone to help you pay it back, and running to a luxury store to buy a ring.

A few sips of water gave me momentum, and I looked at the higher sand dunes behind me and walked towards it without hesitation.

Finally climbing the highest sand dune, I barely managed to stand up, looking around blankly, and then even more dazed.

Because beyond the dunes, there is a higher dune.

At this point, I can only climb one more.

But when I tried my best to climb up and down a sand dune, and completely climbed to the highest point of the sand dune, I found that I could indeed see all the mountains here, but as far as the eye could see, there were still layers of sand dunes.

When people make mistakes, there is always continuity, because people always want to take revenge for their mistakes.

Last night, in order to prove myself, I first walked through the desert with Hua Hu at night, and this morning, in order to prove myself, I once again came to the sea of sand alone.

However, I realized that I might have made a big mistake again.

Because even if there is a strange place that Hua Hu said, it is just one of the sand dunes. Maybe she could feel it, but I couldn't tell it apart from the other dunes.

Could it be that I have trekked through mountains and sands and finally become exhausted, in exchange for such a meaningless ending?

I was very unwilling, but there was nothing I could do.

Now what? I can't find my way back, I can't find a place to move forward, can I just become a joke, sitting dryly on the sand dunes, waiting for Hua Hu to come to the rescue in the middle of the night?

Even Tang Seng in "Journey to the West" is not simply a burden, at least he has the certification of the Buddha, the blessing of the Bodhisattva, and the recitation of a mantra to conquer Sun Dasheng.

But what about me? was taken care of by two women before and after, and said that there was no sense of disobedience when eating soft rice, which was even worse than Tang Seng.

I sat at the end of this high sand dune, trying to pull out my phone and see how far I had come.

When I flew yesterday, the mobile phone was only left with GPS positioning, and it could no longer receive mobile signals, so it could only locate the latitude and longitude of this place, and could not search and load detailed maps. But when I took out my phone today, I found a strange thing.

Because at this moment, my mobile phone shows that my current latitude and longitude is not in Taklamakan but in Lanzhou City, Gansu Province, thousands of miles away!

What's going on? Did I cross over?

Climbed three sand dunes and arrived in Lanzhou in a while?

Where is this sand dune, this is simply a stargate, right?

I quickly closed the program and turned my phone back on. Don't look at the desert there is no mobile signal, but the GPS signal is unexpectedly good, after all, there is no shelter in the desert, so the reception of satellite information is basically undisturbed.

I watched the positioning system turn around for a long time, and then the longitude, latitude and altitude data quickly popped up on the screen.

That's right, the re-displayed positioning, I am still standing on the land of Lanzhou, and there is also a more detailed positioning, that is, Xinghutai Village, Sijiqing Street, Xigu District, Lanzhou City!

Village? This hellish place is full of yellow sand everywhere you look, is there still a village?

I sat on top of the sand dunes and was stunned for a long time.

If there is no parallel space in this world, it is that even the GPS positioning signal is not accurate here.

I held up my phone and looked at it again.

There is also a possibility that the phone is broken.

Whatever the reason, I'm standing on the top of the dunes right now, and I can't get out of it anymore.

There was no way to go or a way to the yellow sand, because when I looked back, I found that the footprints I had made on the dunes had disappeared into the windy sand.

The wind is up, and it's getting stronger.

Standing on the sand dunes and seeing the wind roaring and blowing the sand is really spectacular. But it was spectacular, such a large blowing sand, if I couldn't avoid it, I might be buried in the vast sand dunes in an hour.

I looked around and saw that there didn't seem to be a place to hide. Because sheltering from desert winds and sand is completely different from sheltering from winds in other places.

In the plains, we are all used to hiding against the wind, but in the desert, if we stand against the wind, we will soon be in danger of being buried by the dunes.

Therefore, when a caravan in the desert encounters a sandstorm, it is common for the camels to lie in the wind and lean on their backs.
