Chapter 60: Desert Rescue
Professor Xue told us that this lake is Yin-Yang Lake, and he can't say exactly what Yin-Yang Lake is, just based on the Yin-Yang River, in fact, I have also heard of Yin-Yang River, but I don't know as much as Professor Xue.
I only heard Professor Xue say: "The word Yin-Yang River originally came from Buddhist allusions, according to modern geology, it is the same river with different water, the river flows through different geology, forming different colors of river water, and the minerals they contain are not the same, so the water of the Yin-Yang River is not drinkable." Then this Yin Yang River should also be a truth, there should be springs in the underground of the desert, and there should be black strong corrosive minerals. ”
At this point, I really wanted to say to Professor Xue, "Aren't you?" How simple do you still need to tell the truth? "Later, after thinking about it, forget it, the instructor told us before that respecting the old and loving the young is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, so let's carry forward the fine tradition for the time being.
Now, in the blink of an eye, I lost three sturdy donkeys, and then those big bags and small bags, I'm afraid that I and Big Mouth will carry it, just carry it, I have brought it so far, I can't lose it.
I looked at the big mouth and said to him: "Brother, let's go, it seems that we have set up camp in another place, and I don't want to stay here, it's gloomy." ”
The big mouth was simply wrapped in the coat, and all the people present rearranged the clothes on their bodies, and began to return again, but Gu Yi stared at the lake quietly alone, and suddenly stretched out his hand to interrupt our steps.
"Wait! There seems to be something in the lake, and the black one is not the lake water, but countless small black creatures swimming, brother, come and take a look. Gu Yi pointed to the black lake and said.
Sure enough, when I approached the lake to look, the black lake water was spreading rapidly, changing various shapes, and the speed was very fast, and when I looked closely, I found that those black lake water were actually countless small swimming insects, like the size of an earthworm that had shrunk hundreds of times, and it seemed that there were caterpillars crawling around my neck.
In just a few breaths, the whole lake turned black, and those black plankton seemed to be pouring up from the ground, it seems that there are many dangerous things buried under this desert, at the earliest, this was a vast battlefield, and finally desertified, so it is not difficult to imagine that under the desert are countless dead souls and bones.
"What's the situation with Brother Cui? Is there something going on? Professor Xue approached me, probably seeing that my face was not good-looking, and suddenly asked.
"Lao Cui, in my opinion, let's go, no matter what the situation is, it's not a good thing anyway, it's better to have more than less, let's leave this ghost place." Obviously, Big Mouth has not yet come out of the sudden situation just now, after all, he is in danger of becoming a victim, and while talking to me, he is ready to evacuate.
"Let's go."
I also felt that this place seemed to be picturesque, and the golden surface of the lake shining in the afterglow of the sun was actually a place where people eat and only spit out bones, so I waved to everyone and signaled to go back to the sand dunes first and then discuss the next route.
It's just that we have just made a preparation to move forward, and before we can take the first step, there is a sound of water splashing behind us, one after another, and when I look back, I was dumbfounded, the original calm lake surface is like water being boiled, the water splashes, and in the center of the black lake, dozens of things like fountains, are constantly raising and churning water.
It turned out that the lake was more than ten meters away from us, and it spread to the feet in just a few minutes, I secretly said that it was not good, it turned out that this black lake that seemed to be a pool of stagnant water, the water surface was rising, and the speed was not slow, I signaled everyone to hurry up and climb to the height, and at the same time I paid attention to the movement behind me, I was really worried that a strange monster would suddenly emerge from the water.
Fortunately, the lake level is rising more and more slowly, and we don't need to run up desperately, ten minutes later, six people tired to climb to the highest level of the dune, at this time, the sun has set in the west, the surroundings are very quiet, looking from afar, the rolling sand dunes are set off by the sunset red and shining.
"It seems that we can't go any more today, the deeper we go into the heart of the desert, the more dangerous it becomes, and I don't want any of us to suddenly disappear. Although my words sound a little unlucky, but they are honest and honest, if Gu Yi hadn't discovered it early today, the big mouth at this time would have become a waste person, far from being the current big man. I said to the man, and gave a meaningful look at the big mouth.
Big Mouth was taking off his shoes and picking at the sand between his fingernails, and when I saw it, he stopped what he was doing and said to Gu Yi: "Thank you, sister-in-law, thank you for your kindness." After finishing speaking, he took off his other shoe again, and choked Luo Yuhe, who was sitting next to him, and stepped back vigorously.
"Who brought the soldiers here, I guess their commander is not a good ghost." Gu Yi glanced at me and whispered.
Not far away, Professor Xue was calmly looking at the book, looking like he didn't care about himself, it seems that this old man used to be comfortable, and he didn't know that there were dangers everywhere in this desert, I whispered a few words to the big mouth, and then hugged Gu Yi and waited on the side to take a good look.
I saw Big Mouth patting the sand on his body, walked over to Professor Xue, and said, "Old Man Xue, what about hiding?" You have to be careful, there are no other places in this desert, quicksand, poisonous scorpions, poisonous snakes, marching ants, gold diggers, sandstorms, maybe there are a few poisonous scorpions written under your ass...... Haha"
Before the big mouth finished speaking, Professor Xue stood up with a rub under his buttocks like a spring, obviously he had also heard of the prestige of these things, but he didn't believe the words of the big mouth, and rolled his eyes and looked at the big mouth.
"Brother Cui, can Brother Yu's words be serious?" Let the big mouth snort, Professor Xue's voice trembled a little, and he leaned over to me in a daze.
At this time, Xiao Hui said: "Brother Cui, didn't you and Brother Zui ever be soldiers?" Tell us about your time as soldiers. ”
"Yes, tell us about it, many of our classmates worship Brother Dead Soldier, hehe." Luo Yuhe crawled over and echoed a few words.
Let's talk about it, just take the opportunity to remind everyone that there is still a long way to go, and now is just the beginning, I said to a group of people: "Then let's talk about it." You have the right to listen to the story. ”
The story started a year and a half after I joined the army, one night, at about three o'clock in the middle of the night, I was suddenly invited by the instructor, saying that I was going to carry out a top-secret mission, the highest level, and asked me to quickly select five deputies to set off immediately.
Since it was the highest level of secrecy, I didn't dare to ask more, so I shouted Liu Daqing and Dazui, and a local recruit Tugazi, four people were fully armed, and when we got on the helicopter, the instructor gave us a standard military salute.
At that time, my heart was gadden, because this is a unique farewell gift for our company, that is to say, this trip is afraid of nine deaths, but the duty of a soldier is not afraid of life and death, bravely move forward, everyone talked and laughed on the helicopter, and found that in the co-pilot seat, there was also a blonde and blue-eyed beauty.
After the helicopter took off, the foreigner beauty introduced us in non-standard Mandarin to Lisi, a desert rescue expert in a certain country, who was in charge of the rescue mission. After circling for half a circle over the barracks, the helicopter disappeared into the night, and flew over a desert at dawn.
The moment I looked at my feet, my heart was about to jump out, this Nimana desert was simply hell, and there were no sand dunes in sight within a radius of a hundred miles, all of which were golden sand and dust flying all over the sky.
The helicopter shook so hard in the wind and sand that it looked like it was about to explode in the next second, and the roar shook people's heads as if they were about to burst open, and the pilot told us that we had reached the limit of our descent and let us descend quickly.
The moment the rope was put down, I was the first to step out of the helicopter, and only now did I understand the meaning of the instructor's salute, the rope danced in the air with our bodies, several people were swept around by the wind, the yellow sand under their feet was long, and they couldn't see the ground clearly, the closer to the ground, the stronger the wind, and finally someone couldn't hold on to fly out from the top of my head, I could only take care of myself, firmly holding the thick rope and sliding as fast as possible, and finally flew out, and fell down with a head, and then fell heavily to the dunes, Hold your head and roll endlessly.
When I stopped, I was hurt all over my body, and I couldn't stand up when the wind was strong, and I couldn't stand up, let alone the direction, all the communication equipment was damaged, so I crawled step by step in the wind, looking for my lost teammates, until I met with Dazui half a day later, and after half a day I found Liu Daqing, who had a blue nose and swollen face, and it was another day when I found Tugazi, who also passed out because of lack of water, and finally woke him up, and suddenly remembered Lisi.
At that time, Big Mouth said that the ground in the place where we fell was at least ten meters, and the probability of Lisi surviving was extremely low, but that was also to find, otherwise our mission would fail, even if we could go back alive, and the instructor would not be able to explain, the four of them formed a team to search the net, and found Captain Lisi halfway up in a sand dune, fortunately, she was very good at protecting herself, except for the sprained waist, there was no major problem, and she was squatting on the sand dunes waiting for us.
