Chapter 16: Nervousness

After waiting for several hours, everyone was already in a very unhappy mood. Now I finally waited for someone, but I didn't expect to be looked down upon, and my mood became even more depressed all of a sudden.

Seeing this, Sun Yan hurriedly stopped him and gave him a look, and Wang Biansai closed his mouth at this time, which can be regarded as selling Sun Yan's face.

Sun Yan said patiently: "Uncle Hu, we have been to Lop Nur once, and we know everything in it. ”

"You've been?" Hu Tengjiu stared at Sun Yan's face suspiciously, and after a while, he laughed out loud, "Don't blow it, the sand monkey in there can stand up and be one and a half tall of you, just when you go in like this, you will be pounced on all of a sudden, and it will be easy to eat your heart and dig your liver!" ”

Sand monkeys? A few people were stunned for a moment when they heard it, but after thinking about it, the sand monkey that Hu Tengjiu said in his mouth seemed to be the sand monkey they were familiar with.

Sun Yan couldn't help but sigh, he didn't expect that Ah Yu hadn't explained anything to this old man before, which led to such an embarrassing situation now. Helpless, he could only patiently tell Hu Tengjiu about their origin and the purpose of entering Lop Nur this time, and it took a lot of effort to make the old man believe them.

Knowing that Sun Yan and they had something to do with Batur, Hu Tengjiu's expression seemed to slow down a little, and asked Sun Yan about their plan to enter Lop Nur this time, Sun Yan told Hu Tengjiu the conclusion obtained from listening to the recording, I thought that this old man would laugh at such a conclusion, but I didn't expect him to think for a while, and finally nodded hesitantly and said, "Hey! That's it, in fact, I didn't have a clue before, but I have heard of that report, since you think there is a drama in the center of Lop Nur Lake, let's try our luck! ”

After agreeing on this, the group decided to rest for the night and set off early tomorrow morning. After dinner, Sun Yan and Qi Dongrui decided to stay in Hu Tengjiu's tent, while Xiao Dayian took the other two back to the car to guard the car.

The night was as cold as water, Sun Yan and Qi Dongrui were sleepless in their sleeping bags, so they tried to talk to Hu Tengjiu. Hu Tengjiu shrunk in the tent by himself, did not show his face, and chatted with the two of them without a ride, but he didn't seem sleepy when he heard the voice. He speaks Chinese very fluently, and his voice also has a Beijing accent, Sun Yan asked, sure enough, he is from Beijing, but he lives here all the year round, and has a lot of contacts with the Luobu people, and he involuntarily learned the local dialect.

Qi Dongrui was very interested in the animal internal organs hanging on the fishing nets and asked about the origin. Hu Tengjiu replied unequivocally that it was the internal organs of the "sand monkeys", and that in recent times, these monsters have been running out of the desert one after another, disturbing the chickens and dogs in several nearby villages, and many people have died. He hated this crookedness, so every time he killed one, he would dig out the internal organs of this thing and hang it on the net, first, to pay tribute to those who died innocently; Another is that it is not safe for him to live alone in this kind of jujube forest, and those internal organs can warn those sand monkeys not to approach easily, there is a master here that they can't afford to mess with.

Hu Tengjiu's words stirred up the white sweat on Sun Yan and Qi Dongrui's bodies, and the two of them vaguely remembered that there were about fifteen hearts hanging on the net, how could this old man be so powerful, and kill so many sand hermitages by himself? Don't say that Sun Yan didn't believe it this time, even Qi Dongrui didn't believe it, he snorted coldly in his nose, turned over, put on headphones and listened to the song.

The atmosphere was awkward for a while, Sun Yan wanted to change the topic and talk to Hu Tengjiu about something else, but the old man felt bored, turned over in the tent a few times, and gradually lost his voice.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, several people gathered and set off.

To the center of Lop Nur Lake, Hu Tengjiu planned his own set of route plan, Hu Tengjiu said that the safest way is to travel along the Peacock River, passing through Yingpan, Lao Kaiping, Qianqiao, Longcheng Yadan Group, Tuyinhou, and enter the center of Lop Nur Lake. This is also the route that Yu Chunshun took to enter Lop Nur back then, and he felt that it was the safest and shortest way.

Facing the sun on the road, out of the 36th regiment, the wind began to blow along the way, and the car brought up the sand and dust all the way. It was getting more and more desolate, and in less than forty minutes away, there was no living creature on either side of the road, only three cars were traveling in the desert.

The daytime temperature in Lop Nur in November is more suitable, but the temperature difference between morning and evening is still very large, and the temperature in the early morning can reach minus 20 degrees, and the air coming out of the mouth can form ice flowers. But fortunately, it's not June anymore, and it's not so hot and stuffy to sit in the car.

During the day's journey, several people did not stop much, only had a simple lunch in the car at noon, and rested for half an hour before going directly on the road. At around 7 p.m., the three cars finally stopped on a gentle impact belt, and Hu Tengjiu decided to set up camp here. At the end of the day, the group was very tired, and they were not willing to take away even half a kilometer, especially Wang Biansai and Zujie, these two people had never been to Lop Nur, after a day of turbulence, their faces were extremely pale, and they hastily ate dinner and went to sleep in the tent.

Sun Yan contacted Ah Yu after dinner and told him about the situation here, and Ah Yu was more relieved to hear it, but he had not received any news from Batur for the time being.

The next morning, each person ate a box of canned food and started on the road again. In the car, Hu Tengjiu said earnestly: "A few of you young people have entered Lop Nur once and you think it's amazing? Do you feel like you know everything about Lop Nur? Ay! I tell you, there are dangers hidden in Lop Nur that you would never have imagined. I don't know what happened to you the last time you went to Lop Nur, but there are far more terrifying creatures in Lop Nur than just sand monkeys, and since that explosion there was an explosion in Dragon City a few months ago, and since that explosion, Lop Nur has become even more unsafe. ”

Sun Yan and Xiao Daya glanced at each other, the explosion that Hu Tengjiu said in his mouth was the one Xiao Dayan they experienced?

Xiao Da lip "chuckled" in his heart, and suddenly had a bad premonition. Although the explosion was purely accidental, if what Zha Muque said was true, then what leaked out of that explosion would really be poison gas?! Thinking about it, Xiao Dayi couldn't sit still, and he hurriedly asked Hu Tengjiu: "Uncle Hu, the Lop Nur you said is even more unsafe, what the hell is going on?" ”

Before the words fell, Sun Yan suddenly stopped the car, and when he looked up, there was an oasis not far away, and there was a large area of houses in the oasis, which seemed to have been idle for a long time, and there was no trace of life.

Hu Tengjiu couldn't bother to answer Xiao Dayi's question, and said, "The management of the camp has arrived. With that, he pushed the door open and got out of the car.
