Chapter 710, déjà vu
(Qingfeng is illiterate, why do you flip through the book.) Ask for two monthly passes~)
After Du Ruoxi asked an inexplicable question inexplicably, he didn't continue to ask anything more, but fell into silence again inexplicably. It sounds more like a tongue twister, but that's the reality. At least Xiao Yan didn't know what the reality of Du Ruoxi's question was related to the trouble they encountered, and where his answer touched the heart of this female awakened person.
However, since Du Ruoxi had no intention of continuing, Xiao Yan naturally didn't want to continue talking boringly, although the atmosphere was still a little embarrassing, but at least it was much better than just now.
It took about another 2 hours to run in the desert, and the three of them came to the edge of the mountain, the reason why I said probably, was because the timers on Xiao Yan and Du Juan had been seriously disturbed, whether they were mechanical or electronic, they were now paralyzed.
This mountain area looks like it is no different from the mountain area that Xiao Yan and the others have been to before. The barren conglomerate surface, with the slopes generally about 150 meters high, was washed by the Nile River a long time ago, and thus cut out various canyons, large and small. This, combined with weathering over tens of thousands of years or more, has led to the further fragmentation of these slopes. Like lonely chopsticks stuck on the ground, the huge slopes are more like triangular stone cones erected, each with a radius of about 1,000 meters, and the scene behind the stone cone can only be seen when you go deep into it.
By then, however, the way to come may have been lost behind this stone cone, in that sense. This hill area is located halfway between Merowe and Khartoum. It should be seen as a natural labyrinth.
And because of that. Neither Merowe nor Khartoum are indigenous people who want to go to this mountainous land, which they consider to be a cursed place, a place where they cannot get in or out. The life that can come out of this mountain will not be normal human beings. This primitive worship still exists in the minds of these natives even now under the influence of religion.
Historically, there has also been an abundance of water and grass here, as evidenced by the solitary stone cones. The surface of those hillsides is not bare, walk in and see. You will see one gap after another, which is the effect of water and soil erosion. If you look more closely in these crevices, you may be able to see some ancient trees and animal fossils.
In the north of Khartoum, where it is connected to the mountains, there is a fossil ditch with a large number of fossilized trees, proving that this already inhospitable place was once lush and green.
Du Ruoxi stood near a stone cone, looked up at the position of the moon in the sky, seemed to have made some kind of calculation, and then whispered: "It's already about 2 o'clock in the morning. Now make a decision, and we get into it. Or wait here for rescue. ”
Xiao Yan put Tristina on the ground, moved her shoulders, and said, "How long will the rescue take?" ”
"Under normal circumstances, the supply base is in contact with the headquarters in Khartoum every eight hours, during which time there will be no contact unless there is an emergency. The toxins of those silver ants just now were enough to make those people too late to warn, so it was not until after 12 o'clock that the headquarters in Khartoum found out about the problem, and it would take them about 8 hours to reconnect, and it would not be until tomorrow morning that they could be sure that there was a problem with this supply base. ”
After a pause, Du Ruoxi continued to analyze: "Even if the Abdur family discovers the problem tomorrow morning and then rescues Jihua, it will take at least 3 days. I mean, it must be without the involvement of the Asian Council. Prior to this, the Abdul family's main logistical support had been transferred to Khartoum, and those remaining in Merovi were unable to launch a single rescue operation against us alone. Cars, drivers, etc., all require sufficient lead time. Unless the use of helicopters has been approved by the Sudanese authorities, it will be difficult for them to get here in the shortest possible time and provide us with logistical support. Of course, if the Asia Management Committee gets the Abdul family's application and carries out a rescue operation, it will be able to provide us with the first batch of assistance within 24 hours. ”
Looking at Xiao Yan, Du Ruoxi shook his head lightly and made his own inference: "The problem now is that the Abdur family may not be willing to apply so early, because this is likely to make the management committee doubt the family's practical execution ability and coordination ability." So, according to the conceivable working procedures, the Abdul family should first intensify our search and rescue efforts, rather than immediately report the anomaly to the management committee, unless we ask for immediate support. ”
"The reality is that we can't apply for support from the MC at all, and the current instant messaging method has been blocked."
Xiao Yan nodded slightly and said, "Okay, that means that no matter what, we will stay in this mountain for at least 48 hours." In the process, we may not be able to do anything. “
Without waiting for Du Ruoxi to speak, Xiao Yan began to move his body again and said, "In 30 minutes, we will set off and enter here." There's no point in just waiting, and I don't think the radiation area that interferes with communications is so large that we can't leave, and I don't like to sit still. “
Du Ruoxi nodded, did not speak, but leaned against a stone that protruded outward. As for Tristina, she was now asleep in the shadow of the half-weathered stone. As it stands, Tristina's body temperature has returned to normal, her heart is not beating too fast, and the main reason for her lethargy is still due to the excessive blood loss just now. By the time she wakes up the next time, she should be able to get better quickly with some nutrients.
Xiao Yan sat next to Tristina, letting the female designer's head rest on his head, and the perception continued to spread, sensing various changes around him,
Maybe a minute, maybe a little longer, the young awakened suddenly felt something unusual. He blinked subconsciously, and two different, but nested shijies appeared in front of him again.
One is the barren desert, the Gobi Desert, and the hills that shade each other. The other is a shijie who is emerald green to the extreme. Lush trees were everywhere in Xiao Yan's field of vision, a large number of ferns, early trees, everything in this shijie was green.
The weather is very hot, and the surrounding space is very quiet, which is the same for both the real shijie and the other shijie in Xiao Yan's eyes. He swallowed, not because he was flustered by the new shijie that began to appear in his eyes again, but because, he suddenly realized that this new shijie didn't seem so "new", and he had seen this shijie at some time before. The plants were still quietly fighting each other, fighting for every inch of space and soil, and the insects on the ground looked very huge, at least Xiao Yan saw a few beetles as big as the palm of his hand being besieged by those equally terrifying ants.
Turning his head, Xiao Yan looked at Du Ruoxi, in that shijie, Xiao Yan saw Du Ruoxi for the first time, and thus began his own trial journey. And now, in this familiar shijie, Xiao Yan still saw Du Ruoxi. To be exact, in the place where Du Ruoxi is standing in reality, in the illusion shijie, there is also a woman who is exactly the same as Du Ruoxi standing there.
Seeing Xiao Yan turn his head to look at him, Du Ruoxi subconsciously touched his face, but this action did not happen to the woman in the illusion, so there was a significant difference.
Looking at Du Ruoxi's fiery red hair, the memories of the past kept coming up, the amazement when he saw Du Ruoxi for the first time, and the longing that the young man once had, made Xiao Yan suddenly a little out of breath for a while.
He subconsciously asked, "What about your dinosaurs?" ”
The two Du Ruoxi, in reality and in illusion, turned their heads to look at Xiao Yan at the same time, and asked in surprise: "Can you see me?!" ”
Du Ruoxi is very aware of Xiao Yan's awakening history, because Xiao Yan's awakening is perceived by her through spatial fluctuations. Therefore, the female awakened person knew very well that Xiao Yan could not appear in the mission she was carrying out at that time. And Xiao Yan directly mentioned the dinosaurs, then there is only one answer, Xiao Yan, who has just awakened, has been able to see himself on a mission through the "barrier".
This is not a simple perspective, you can see another shijie through the spatial barrier, so it is not difficult to reach the other shijie directly through the spatial barrier. And Xiao Yan's performance in Fuyuan City last time also verified this inference. Thinking that Xiao Yan can jump in different shijie, so he will directly enter the trial shijie without touching the rhizome of the shijie tree, and in turn, because Xiao Yan can enter the trial shijie in this way, it also proves that Xiao Yan has the ability to pass through the spatial barrier without restrictions.
Du Ruoxi's question made Xiao Yan's eyes suddenly fluctuate, and then, the emerald green shijie suddenly disappeared in his eyes, leaving only the dark sky in the real shijie and the red-haired girl who looked nervous.
"Oh, the way you ride a dinosaur, it's awesome."
Xiao Yan said from the bottom of his heart, since he had already said it, he was not going to cover it up, and it seemed that such a cover-up was not necessary.
Du Ruoxi's face flushed slightly, and she turned her head to look at the sky again, she had heard too many compliments, and none of them could make her feel so excited now.
"I saw an elf."
Xiao Yan whispered, the woman who was exactly the same as Du Ruoxi just now had pointed ears and a slender and slender body, looking like an elf.
However, this sentence sounded like a supplementary compliment to Xiao Yan's ears to praise her as beautiful as an elf.
"We might be able to rest a little longer."
Du Ruoxi felt that his body was a little weak, and he involuntarily sat on the ground and suggested in a low voice. (To be continued......)
