"Do you know that place?" The girl's eyes stared blankly at the endless sea of sand in the distance, and there was no expression on her white and beautiful cheeks. She was dressed in a fiery red robe, a snow-white felt hat, and her long black braided hair reached to her waist, standing there quietly like a red flower, beautiful and dazzling.

Seeing that the person next to her did not respond, the girl continued: "I miss it very much, I came from there, it is my hometown. But time flies, decades have passed, and I can't go back. ”

After the girl finished speaking, she laughed sadly, and when she turned her head again, her face was already full of wrinkles, like a dry old tree, she stared at the person next to her treacherously, for a long time, and suddenly asked fiercely: "What do you know?!" ”

Sun Yan was startled, and sat up from the bed all of a sudden, this dream again! He gasped for air, drenched, and the hair on his forehead was soaked with sweat.

Outside the window, it was pouring rain, and bean-sized drops of rain crackled on the windowpanes. Sun Yan pinched his eyebrows, sighed and said, "Nazagul? ”

"Who? Your girlfriend? Suddenly, a girl's crisp voice came from the side.

Sun Yan was stunned for a moment, turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw a short-haired girl sitting cross-legged on the ground, staring at herself slyly and smiling, seeing that Sun Yan was surprised and silent, the girl blinked her eyes again and said, "The little secret was discovered by me, brother, are you in love, does the second aunt know?" ”

Sun Yan narrowed his eyes and opened his mouth to ask, "Mingxiang?" How did you get here? ”

Ming Xiang is the daughter of Chen Shuyan's sister, who is delicate and cute, and eccentric. When I was a child, I often ran around the streets with Sun Yan, and my temperament was the same as that of boys. However, when he grew up, he moved to Beijing with his parents, and now he is studying high school in Beijing and rarely comes to Shandong.

It has been two years since the last time the brother and sister were separated, and Sun Yan was a little surprised when he first saw this uninvited guest, but there was no joy in his heart.

"What? I can't come? Ming Xiang saw his brother's blank expression, obviously a little unhappy, his mouth pursed, and said: "I'm about to start school, so I can't come to you to play, I heard that you went out to collect style, and I thought you could bring me a gift back, but there was nothing, just this pile of broken paper." Moreover, you are tanned darker than Bao Gong, and you are ugly! ”

Sun Yan just wanted to explain, but when he saw a pile of manuscript papers scattered around Ming Xiang, he immediately became anxious, leaned over from the bed suddenly, snatched a few pieces of paper from Ming Xiang's hand, and said angrily: "Don't flip through my things casually!" ”

Seeing that her brother suddenly became angry, Ming Xiang's face suddenly turned red, she suddenly jumped up from the ground and shouted, "What's the big deal, isn't it just a pile of broken paper?!" As for you! With that, he stomped his foot and ran out.

Sun Yan shook his head, got up and started to clean up. Now, these materials brought back from Xinjiang have become Sun Yan's most precious things, he has to read them several times almost every day, as if he has fallen into it, just like he was still reading seriously before going to bed just now, although he can't see anything famous, but he is still obsessed with that desert, how can others know.

And the dream just now, since returning from Lop Nur, Nazagul has always appeared in her dreams, saying those inexplicable words. In the dream, Sun Yan couldn't open his mouth to ask her, so he could only silently watch that beautiful face suddenly grow old, and then wake up.

In other words, it has been two weeks since the big team returned from Lop Nur. These two Zhou Sun Yan were dazed every day, staying in the room and not going out. Since he came back, Sun Qixiang has not made any movement, and he doesn't seem to know about Sun Yan and Xiao Da Li going to Lop Nur privately.

At first, Sun Yan was still worried, but then it was estimated that Xue Karan helped him hide the matter, no wonder, Xue Karan's old man must still be thinking about the information in his hand, maybe he also thinks that he has a great connection with Sun Qijun's affairs, and he is thinking about the next step. It's just that the things in the research institute have already made Xue Jiao very busy, and this old man has not looked for himself until now.

Last weekend, Sun Yan called Xiao Da Lip to ask about Qi Dongrui's injury, Xiao Big Lip said that Qi Dongrui was seriously injured and was still in a coma, but there was no worry about life, and it was only a matter of time before he woke up.

In the next few days, there was still no movement on the research institute's side, but Sun Qixiang was busier than usual, sometimes he didn't go home for two or three days, and he couldn't see anyone most of the time, and Xiao Da Lip had no contact.

After returning to Shandong, the weather became significantly cooler. In the past two days, Sun Yan also put aside his worries for the time being, and went out to play with Ming Xiang for a few days.

thought that no matter what the outcome was, the matter of Lop Nur would be over for the time being, and Sun Yan also tried his best to sort out his mood and wait for the day when the school opened.

On this day, just a month after the end of the Lop Nur expedition, Sun Yan just got up from the bed, the phone rang, and an unfamiliar number was displayed on the screen.

"Hey, Sun Yan, where are you?" Qi Dongrui's voice sounded lazy and weak.

Sun Yan was stunned, his brain didn't react for a while, and after a long time, he choked up and said, "You kid woke up?!" ”

The other end of the line giggled twice and said, "Where are you now?" Available? ”

"Why" Sun Yan couldn't help but laugh, "School is about to start, I'm bored all day, and there is nothing important today." Just when you wake up and want to eat, I'll bring some to you. ”

"You don't have to bring anything, it's good if you can come over, in fact, I have something I want to tell you."

Thing? Sun Yan sighed in his heart, and before he could speak, Qi Dongrui said again: "You know where the location is, the hospital where I live is not far from your father's research institute, you take a taxi for half an hour, I'll wait for you." With that, he hung up the phone.

Sun Yan was actually quite excited when he received this call, and the heart that had been hanging for a long time was finally put in his stomach now.

He quickly packed up and went out, stopped a taxi at the gate of the community and ran straight to the hospital.

Qi Dongrui's ward is on the top floor of the inpatient department, a separate room, isolated from the rest of the hospital. The corridor of the hospital was filled with the smell of light disinfectant water, and Sun Yan walked quickly through the outpatient department and took the elevator directly to the top floor of the inpatient department.

Pushing open the door, the first thing I saw was Qi Dongrui sitting on the hospital bed, this young master was much thinner than before, with plaster on his legs and left arm, and his body was wrapped like a mummy. Seeing Sun Yan suddenly push the door in, the young master was startled and hurriedly turned his head.

"It's too slow." Seeing that it was Sun Yan, Qi Dongrui smiled faintly, his face was tired, his face was no longer as rosy as before, and he was obviously recovering from a serious illness.

Sun Yan walked in and put the condolences he had bought downstairs on the table. Qi Dongrui was hospitalized, Sun Yan came to see him for the first time, I heard Xiao Da Lip talk about it before, Qi Dongrui was bitten by a group of sand hermitages that suddenly appeared in daylight during the search and rescue process, this group of sand hermitage is not as afraid of light as before, they are exposed to the sun, their bodies are steaming hot, crazy, ferocious, and bite people when they see them. And Qi Dongrui was crushed under two sand hermitages at that time, and almost lost his life

Every time he thought about it, Sun Yan shuddered, and now he was even more afraid when he saw the wounds all over his body.

Sun Yan looked at Qi Dongrui before replying to him: "Don't be slow, I'll take a taxi for forty minutes to arrive."

He paused and asked, "When did you wake up?" ”

"Yesterday at two o'clock in the afternoon."

Sun Yan squinted his eyes and looked at him for a long time, then said, "I can't wait so much, what are you going to tell me?" ”

Qi Dongrui is not a person who likes to sell guanzi, he said bluntly: "Do you remember the fake Chamu Sparrow we met in the ancient ruins group at the beginning? ”

Sun Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, but before the words came out, he heard a 'bang', the door was pushed open, turned his head to look, and saw Xiao Da Lip standing at the door, this guy was holding a paper bag in one hand, wiping the sweat from the corner of his forehead with the other, and said with his teeth bared: "Okay, Xiao Sun, the speed is very fast, and it is not in vain that I ran all the way from the research institute!" ”
