Gao Yanan shook his head and said, "Professor Shui, don't get excited yet. The state also has the idea of the state. I'll give you an analysis, and I'll say you'll understand. Listen to it, everybody, and see if what I'm saying makes sense? ”

Everyone gathered around, and Gao Yanan said: "I don't approve of the country's approach this time, but I figured it out later." It became very agreeable. If you think about it, the Sahara Desert runs through the northern part of the African continent, passing through more than a dozen countries, and if we just go in by ourselves, every country needs a visa, right? After this disclosure, as long as there is a letter of introduction, there is no need for a visa. lest you enter another country without knowing the situation. At that time, only an embassy could come to pick us up, what a trouble. We couldn't help but nod our heads, that's the reason.

Gao Yanan looked at us and said with a smile, "Do you all understand now?" Actually, there is a second point. ”

Lu Liang hurriedly asked, "What is the second point?" ”

Gao Yanan said with a smile: "Africa is also the base of al-Qaeda, and it is also the base camp of pirates. They are all hiding in the desert. Usually we don't see it, but when we get to the desert, who knows if we will run into it. After the state made its secrets public, it muddied the waters, and we can fish in troubled waters with confidence. When the time comes, as soon as the scientific expeditions, expeditions, mercenaries, guerrillas, and other armed forces of various countries are dispatched, terrorist organizations and pirates will be reined in, which will also facilitate our actions. We nodded again and again, it was really this reason, and I said curtly: "Gao Yanan, I'm sorry, I didn't think about it well, and I shouldn't have lost my temper with you." ”

Gao Yanan said magnificently: "Forget it, I didn't explain it." Let's find a way to get out of here, I don't know how we got in last night? Now that the sun is in the west, I don't know if I can return to the national highway before it gets dark today? ”

I looked at the sand dunes around me and said, "It's weird, this place was close to the river back then, and although the dunes moved, they generally avoided the river. The wind near the river is much stronger than passing over the dunes, so there is no sand to hold, but how can there be such a large sand dune here? ”

Ye Manqing said: "It's better to get out of here quickly, I always feel flustered, and I can't figure out something." But I can tell that there is something strange about this place. Don't forget that we came in last night, and now it's not far from dark, you say, will there be another scene like last night? You should know by now what we saw yesterday. ”

"Yes, there are ghosts. I had been in a state of flux last night, thinking I was tired. Now that I think about it, alas, what a carelessness. Zhang Qian shook his head and said: "I didn't know that I had entered the ghost nest, so many years of cultivation were really in vain." Li Hua also said: "Zhang Qian, don't be sad, didn't I see it." ”

Gao Yanan said: "Okay, don't talk about these useless things, let's go out quickly." ”

Relying on the original method, all the preparations on a car were unloaded, leaving only one driver on it. We chose Zhang Qiang, who weighed the lightest, to drive. The car was at maximum horsepower, and we followed, and although the sand kept splashing down on us, no one retreated. It was just over two meters from the dune, but I still didn't go up after all. It's the shortest of the dunes. Unconvinced, we tried five times in a row, and finally gave up.

I looked at the crowd and said, "There's only one way now, but it's a little more risky." ”

Lu Liang said: "Boss, just say it, don't be like this, mother-in-law, it's better to have a way than no way." ”

I nodded and said, "Why were we allowed to come in last night?" Did you feel the sand dunes at that time? ”

Gao Yanan's eyes lit up and said, "Does it mean that we will leave at night." It was clear that there were no sand dunes at that time. Now that there are ghosts here, your dunes may disappear at night and return to the way they used to be. ”

I smiled wryly and said, "Now that is the only way to think about it, is there any other way for us?" Everyone shook their heads, and Ye Simin said, "Let's rest now, eat something, recharge our energy, and wait for the evening to see." ”

It was dark here, and we set the alarm clock at 7 o'clock, took a short nap, and when the alarm went off, we got up quickly. It was just sunless and we got into the car. It was slowly getting dark, and we all parked on the edge of the dunes, ready for us to rush out as soon as the dunes disappeared.

Time passed little by little, and it had been three hours of waiting, and the dunes had not changed in the slightest. Those singing and dancing silicon industries did not come out. Calculating the time, it was about eleven o'clock in the evening when we came in yesterday. Our time was really coming up, and everyone was staring at the dunes with all their attention, just waiting for the dunes to disappear.

After waiting for another two hours, the dunes still didn't move, and the ghosts didn't come out. We waited left and right until dawn, and there was still no movement. Looking at the nascent sun in the east, we reluctantly declared defeat. After getting out of the car, we got together to discuss why there were no supernatural events, and after discussing for a while, everyone still did not come to a conclusion.

Leng Feng looked at the sun in the east and said softly: "The sky here is so clean, and the sun is hotter than other places, I wonder if the moon at night is also brighter than Yanjing's?" ”

Li Meiting smiled: "Of course, Yanjing doesn't have such a clean sky." Since the chairman came to power, he has begun to clean up the bad environment and close down small factories that pollute the atmosphere, but three years later, the smog still exists. ”

My heart moved, I took out my mobile phone, looked at the perpetual calendar, and sure enough, it was. Gao Yanan looked at me and said, "Professor Shui, your mobile phone has no signal, so I'll make a satellite call." I don't know where we are now, let's set the direction first, it seems that the state needs to send a helicopter to pick us up. ”

Gao Yanan fiddled for a while, her face turned pale, and she said tremblingly: "There are ghosts, there are ghosts." We hurriedly comforted her, and he said, "The satellite navigation system is out of order, and there is no way to locate it." In this way, the phone is called, and the country can't find us. With such a big desert, are we going to go out? ”

I frowned and said, "Wasn't the satellite navigation system okay yesterday?" Why can't it be today? ”

Gao Yanan shook his head and said, "We didn't use it yesterday, we looked at the direction the day before yesterday." We didn't use it here yesterday. ”

I nodded and said, "You mean it didn't work until you entered here." Gao Yanan nodded and said, "I don't know, but it's probably like this." ”

I whispered, "Alas, yesterday, oh no, the day before yesterday was the first day of the new year. ”

Zhang Qian nodded and said, "There are many taboos on the fifteenth day of the first month. Just like our Taoists, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, we should fast, bathe, burn incense, and worship God with all our hearts. There are also customs in the countryside that do not wash hair, feet, husband and wife, and butchers do not kill pigs and sheep. Although there are no taboos anymore, there are still some places where such traditions are preserved. Zhang Qian looked at Granny Blue Flower, "Granny Blue Flower, is that so?" Granny Blue Flower nodded silently.

Gao Yanan frowned and said, "You mean we have to wait until fifteen?" ”

I shook my head and said, "No." There is a moon on the fifteenth, and they may not come out. ”

Gao Yanan said in surprise: "What, you mean that we have to wait until the first day of the next month?" ”

I smiled wryly and said, "Who knows? Are you sure they'll come out on the first day of next month? Maybe once a year? Are we going to have to wait a year? Now we just have to find a way to get out, and we can't rely on those miracles. ”

Wang Zongjun said: "Then what can be done? The satellite positioning system does not work, the country cannot find us, the car cannot get out, we do not know how far it is from the place where there are people, in case we go out and get lost, we will all die in the desert. Just like those dried corpses seen earlier. Maybe he will disappear like Pengamu, and he won't see anyone alive or dead. With so much food and water in the car, you might even be able to make it out alive. What do you say? Wang Zongjun looked around, and everyone nodded in agreement. It seems that everyone is also worried and has no confidence in going out by manpower.

I nodded and said, "Since we all think so, we'll wait a few days to see." See if there's a turnaround. ”

Gao Yanan looked at me and said, "That's it, do what Professor Shui said." ”

During the day, we took a sapper shovel and shoveled the sand on the shortest dunes, trying to make the dunes as low as possible. Although the daily effect is limited, the dunes are getting shorter and shorter. At night, everyone slept in the car, so that they could rush out faster in case the sand dunes disappeared. After four days, the effect was noticeable. The top of the dunes was only about a meter away from the top of the dune at full horsepower, and at this speed, it would only take two days at most to get out of trouble.

Although we are trapped here, we are still living at ease. We all know that if you enter the Sahara Desert, there is no such leisure to live. There is a growing crisis, with numerous guerrillas, mercenaries, al-Qaeda fighters, etc., all posing a major threat to us, but piracy is the least of them. Like Somali pirates, they only ask for ransom and are always polite to hostages. As long as you don't have bad intentions towards them, they won't restrict you from moving within a certain range. It is even more polite to women, and there will never be any disturbance, let alone aggression. But partisans and mercenaries are not easy to say. If it falls into their hands, several women will not be able to save it. These materials are top secret, and only Gao Yanan knows. Now that he is trapped here, Gao Yanan will tell us about it, and he will be the talking point after dinner.

After another day of hard work, we estimate that we will be able to get out of the predicament tomorrow in one day. Everyone was also very tired, and after eating, they all got into the car early to rest. We slept until midnight, and the noise outside startled us. It's so dark outside that you can't see anything at all. We turned on the headlights and the whole valley was within the range of the lights.

Through the light, we saw black sand and dust rushing towards the valley like a tide. We flew a few days and the sand dunes that we had worked so hard to level and piled them up high, and what was even more terrifying was that he was slowly moving towards us. When we heard the wind, we knew it was bad, and it was easy to move a dune with such a strong wind. Every dune has a leeward side and a leeward side, and now we are here on the leeward side, although it also has a lot of sand and dust, but the speed of the dunes is terrifying.

If we continue like this, we will be buried under the dunes. We slowly retreated back, I don't know how long it took, the ruins of the early Ming Dynasty building had been completely buried by the sand dunes, and there was no trace of it anymore. The ruins were originally in the center of the valley, but now the valley has shrunk by two-thirds, and I am afraid that it will not be long before we are buried by the sand dunes.

We increased our speed towards the opposite sand dunes, and we could not hesitate, and we did not even have an acceleration in the hesitation. If you can't accelerate, the car won't be able to climb a few meters high. We rushed to the top of the sand dunes on the opposite side, and although we couldn't reach the top of the dune, we were already halfway up the mountain. It was here that I felt the power of the storm, how the heavy four-wheel drive car was swaying and swaying. There's still a lot of dust, but we still feel much safer than we are below.

The sand dunes were also moving slowly, and I don't know how long it took for our car to appear at the top of the dunes. We excitedly increased our horsepower and rushed down to the top of the dune, speeding away with the wind. As I rushed down from the top of the dune, I looked back and saw that the valley was gone, completely filled by the dunes. Is this the legendary Black Sandstorm? It's too powerful, too. Fortunately, we were fortunate that not only did not happen, but we were a blessing in disguise and rushed out of the valley according to what we had obtained.

When the sandstorm stopped, we also stopped the car to rest and repair. More than half of the equipment on the roof of the car was blown away, but fortunately, food and water were in the cabin, and there was no loss. Looking at the time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. The sandstorm blew for fourteen or fifteen hours, and such a large sandstorm has never been seen before, and I am afraid it is even more exciting than the blockbuster movie with the surname of the American disaster, but unfortunately, there is no video recorder to shoot it.

Gao Yanan said with palpitations: "This is the legendary black sandstorm, right?" ”

I nodded and said, "Probably, Black Sandstorm is just a name, and no one has ever seen it." Most of the people I saw were dead, and those who didn't die didn't dare to go into the desert again. None of us have seen it, and we are not sure if it is, but the appearance of the dark sky just now, the feeling of darkness, should be a black sandstorm. Fortunately, we went downwind, and if it had been a crosswind, the car would have been blown over. ”

Gao Gao Ping asked, "Shall we camp here tonight or continue walking?" ”

Gao Yanan said: "Keep walking, I don't know what is in this desert, let's leave quickly." Don't get it, if you get sandphobia before you go to the Sahara Desert, you can't get it. ”

I looked at Gao Yanan and said, "Gao Yanan, you check, now our location is there, and the satellite navigation system should be usable now." ”

Gao Yanan took out the locator, connected to the computer, and found out in an instant. Gao Yanan smiled bitterly and said, "Professor Shui, do you guess where we we're here?" I shook my head, how do you guess that? According to the direction in which the sand dunes are moving, it should be the west wind, is it back to Lop Nur? It's impossible, it's too far away, and it shouldn't be there. "Can't guess." I'm honest.

Gao Yanan said with a smile: "I knew you wouldn't have guessed." ”

I reluctantly said, "What if I guessed?"

Gao Yanan said with a smile: "If you guess, I can do whatever you want, if you can't guess, you promise me a request." What do you think? Bet? I looked at Gao Yanan with a wicked smile and said, "What you said, can I do anything?" Gao Yanan nodded, suddenly blushed, shook his head and said: "It must continue to be just, you can't violate the bottom line of morality, you can't be a criminal, you can't ......" I hurriedly stopped him and said: "Don't say it, there will be nothing more." The crowd burst into laughter.

Leng Feng said with a grin: "Gao Yanan, you really dare to say in front of me that you can let him do anything, aren't you ** him?" You have to know that men can't stand women. I can tell you, you are responsible for what happens, don't let Shui Xinyue be responsible for you. Gao Yanan blushed after saying this, and she smiled shyly: "Dead Leng Feng, what are you talking about, where is there such a thing as you, your thoughts are so dirty, you have learned from that guy Shui Xinyue." ”

I smiled and said, "Don't rely on me, you think the people of Guoan are fools, but she is worse than anyone else." Rely on me like this. Leng Feng pinched me fiercely and said angrily, "Who do you say is bad?" I pointed to her little hand and said, "See for yourself." ”

Gao Yanan hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Professor Shui, you haven't answered my question yet?" ”

I grinned and said, "Are you still betting?" ”

Gao Yanan blushed and said, "Don't gamble, you're all dead, and there is no good thing." Leng Feng said dryly: "Gao Yanan, who are you saying is not a good thing, be careful that I let Shui Xinyue bully you." Don't cry then. ”

Gao Yanan said with a smile: "Just him? You let him try. See that I don't beat him so much that he won't even recognize you. ”

I hurriedly surrendered and said, "Okay, okay, you two don't pinch." Isn't it just guessing the name of a place? I said, you guys listen, if I'm not mistaken, this is Lop Nur. ”

Gao Yanan said in surprise: "Hey, how did you guess?" ”

I pointed to the sky and said, "Don't reveal the secret of heaven." ”

Gao Ping smiled: "The boss said it, he guessed." Where is there a heavenly opportunity. ”

Gao Yanan shook his head and said, "Yes, why don't you ask him to go somewhere else, just Lop Nur?" (To be continued.) )
