Batur rubbed his temples with a dull ache, unable to believe it was real. For a while, he was willing to be dreaming, and after waking up from the dream, nothing happened, and the four young men giggled and beckoned him to go on the road.

But the facts are the facts, and they are unusually clear in front of their eyes, not dreams or hallucinations. He took a few deep breaths, told himself to calm down, and then squatted down and touched the footprints on the ground, the footprints were still there, but why did people mysteriously disappear in the blink of an eye? Is there something dangerous around? Beast or wolf?

Thinking of this, Batur couldn't help but become alert, he immediately stood up and picked up the gun hanging from his shoulder, quickly loaded the gun, and quietly observed the movements around him.

At this moment, he remembered a big hidden danger that had always existed around him, Sha'an. The heart said, "Did those things really come out of the ruins?" followed behind the car all the time, and then pounced on Qi Dongrui when he wasn't paying attention, bit off Qi Dongrui's throat, and went underground?

Because he has been dealing with this kind of desert cannibal for the past half a year, Batur also has a certain understanding of this, this thing moves very quickly, even more in the desert, and is also good at making holes, just like that mouse, if Qi Dongrui is really caught by this thing, then eighty percent will be dragged underground.

However, this area is an open Gobi Desert, and the soil under your feet is very hard, and there is no soft fluidity like sand.

The more he thought about it, the more strange it became, and he walked around the footprints left nearby. However, the ground is very flat, and there is no sign of excavation or chiseling.

That's weird! Could it be that Qi Dongrui did not escape to the earth but ascended to heaven? Thinking like this, the corners of Batur's mouth couldn't help but show a wry smile, this speculation is undoubtedly the most unreliable, but he still subconsciously looked up at the sky, if Qi Dongrui is floating in the sky like a kite now, then he has to find a way to pull him back.

Looking up for a while, Batur suddenly felt his body fall hard, he hurriedly lowered his head, and saw that the ground had collapsed, his feet and his entire calf had sunk in, and the soft loess was "fluttering" out of the ground.

What the?!

He was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, suddenly his whole body first leaned back, and then fell down with a "bang", and in an instant the endless yellow sand rose silently like fog, and then overflowed his head like a big water.

The fine sand was pervasive, and the suffocating darkness swept in. After Batur finished speaking, is he going to be buried alive?

There was almost no struggle, and in the moment when it was dark in front of him, he fell to the ground again, and as soon as his feet landed, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and a little grain of sand was sucked into his nose, but then it turned out to be dry and cold air.

He couldn't help but be stunned, and looked around, there was darkness nearby, and he couldn't see anything clearly, but fortunately this was probably an underground cave, and he was not buried in sand.

Batur took two gulps and spat the sand off his mouth. Then he quickly picked up his gun and listened to the movements around him. After about half a minute, his vision began to return, and when he could almost see his surroundings, he almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.

The scene in front of him was not what he imagined it to be! The cave he imagined and the crisis he imagined was not at all, and at the moment this hole was probably just a large rat hole, narrow and rectangular, so small that it could only accommodate ten people standing against their heels, and the width of the left and right sides was less than a meter, and it was probably not even allowed to bend over.

He frowned, where is Qi Dongrui? Is there a second person hidden in this small hole where you can reach the wall with your arms outstretched?

Thinking about it, he subconsciously looked up and wanted to know the depth of this hole, because it didn't take much effort when he fell, it was just a matter of a moment, and it felt like it was only five or six meters deep, but now it was pitch black above his head, and this hole seemed to be dozens of meters deep, boundless, and he couldn't even see the starry sky above Lop Nur.

He touched the walls of the cave around him, and although they seemed to be very sturdy, they were undoubtedly all soft sand, and he immediately sank into it when he pressed his fingers. This hole is not wide, and if it is just an ordinary hole in the ground, you can easily climb it with both feet on the wall of the cave, but this situation does not seem to allow it now.

Although he felt that there was nothing to be done, Batur decided to give it a try, the sand was indeed soft, but the bond was good, and he estimated that as long as his feet pedaled fast enough and did not sink too deep, he could still climb up, although it could be ten times more difficult than walking on the usual sand.

Batur slung the gun to his shoulder again, took a few deep breaths, and began to climb. He held the cave wall with both hands outstretched, and immediately left a deep foot socket on the cave wall after the first foot was pushed up, and seeing that this foot was sinking deeper and deeper, he hurriedly stepped on the wall with the other foot, and after stepping on this foot, he immediately pulled out the foot that had sunk into the wall and kicked it upward.

After a few quick steps upward, he was already out of breath and sweating profusely. It takes a lot of effort to pull out the sunken foot every time, and kicking the wall hard in the process of pulling out will make the other foot sink deeper, and after a few strokes, both ankles begin to sore and weak, but they can't stop at all, Batur can only grit his teeth and try to push upward.

After about four meters of kicking up, he suddenly heard the strange sound of his fingernails scratching the ground glass before, very close, right in his ears.

There was a "groan" in my heart, and my head was messed up for a while. But now he can't stop at all, and it's not the time to care about other things, so he can only climb up hard.

But before he could take two steps, he noticed that there was something wrong with the walls on both sides, and the sand near his feet began to shake rapidly, and continued to swim on the surface of the wall, forming all kinds of bumps. After a while, his feet suddenly stepped into the air, and he suddenly fell from a height of four or five meters in the air.

As soon as he reached the bottom of the cave, the sound suddenly stopped, and Batur hurriedly looked up, and found that all the pits on the cave wall that he had stepped on were gone, and the cave wall had become very regular again, and the sand had stopped wriggling.

Batur was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time. He said in his heart that something was wrong, could this cave wall still be alive?
