"Suke?" The others frowned and stared at Sun Yan in confusion. Sun Yan nodded, his eyes stretched into the distance, and he didn't know what he was looking at, but looking at his appearance, he didn't seem to want to explain it now.

I don't know how long there was silence, everyone suddenly heard the sound of camel bells in the distance, and in about a quarter of an hour, a camel team of more than a dozen people appeared in front of them.

Everyone was startled, and couldn't help but stand up from the ground, the camel team walked to the front, and there was a tall man sitting on a camel at the head, his face was handsome, his eyes were sharp, and after slowly looking at a circle of people, his eyes fell on Sun Yan, and he opened his mouth and asked, "Sun Yan, are you ready?" When to go? ”

Sun Yan turned his head to look at Xue Jiao, Xue Jiao nodded slightly, and he said, "You can leave at any time, the faster the better." ”

After Bai Bing treated the dwarf's wounds, the whole team assembled and set off, the camel team was in front, Sun Yan rode the camel, and Xiao Wang drove the Suzuki car to follow behind, carrying Xue Jiao, Bai Bing and the dwarf. After only walking for more than half an hour, he suddenly found the fork in the road that he had lost before, and when he saw the familiar sign at the intersection, the old horse immediately shouted: "Oh my God! We searched for this road for more than two hours and couldn't find it, and we thought we had hit a ghost, but now we came out all of a sudden! ”

Hearing the exclamation of the old horse, one of the people in the front team turned around and smiled: "The red Yadan group just now is the center of Dragon City, where every road is the same, and the shape of Yadan is quite similar. It's a place that is very easy to walk in but very difficult to get out of, even camels can get lost when they walk inside, and if you don't have certain pathfinding skills, you will just keep going around in circles and can't get out at all. ”

After hearing this, Lao Ma suddenly realized, and shook his head with emotion, after thinking for a while, he looked up at the person just now, and thought that it was difficult for this group of unknown guys to talk to people, but he didn't expect them to say things that people could understand, and they were enthusiastic, so he took the initiative to go up and talk to him. But it didn't go as he wanted, the other party knew that he was coming over to talk about it, so he dealt with it hastily, and didn't seem to want to talk about more topics.

Xiao looked suspicious from behind, so he stretched his neck and whispered to Sun Yan: "Is that person named Su Ke the one who is the first to start?" ”

Sun Yan nodded: "Yes, that's right." ”

Xiao's big lips frowned: "Who is he?" What's the matter? How do you get mixed up with them? ”

Sun Yan thought for a while, tilted his head and smiled: "What person?" I haven't really thought about this question, if I have to say it, it should be regarded as a lifesaver! ”

Seeing that Xiao's big lips were confused when he heard this, and the folds between his brows were getting deeper and deeper, he waved his hand and said, "I know you have a lot of questions, and I will tell you when you get out of the Yadan landform, and I am also very interested in what has happened to you in the past few days." By the way, I don't seem to have seen Batur all the time, didn't he come with you? Also, I heard that the kid from Cha Muque was also here, why didn't he see the two of them? ”

Xiao Da Yan fell silent when he heard this, and then sighed deeply.

After that, the team walked in a roundabout way in Yadan City, and after knowing what happened to Batur and Cha Muque, Sun Yan was speechless all the way, and the surrounding scenery was gray and lifeless, and Yadan, which was like a huge tomb, blocked the view, and the scenery was really gloomy.

After walking for about two hours, around six or seven o'clock in the afternoon, everyone finally walked out of Yadan, and there was a burst of ecstasy. In an hour or two before night falls, everyone gets off their camels and rests.

But Suke, the leader of the camel caravan, looked at the sky and told the crowd that it would be better to walk a few kilometers further, for there would be a sandstorm in the evening.

Everyone listened to Suke's words and followed the caravan forward for some distance. At about 8 o'clock in the evening, the sunset on Lop Nur was red and red, and at this time, everyone had already circled into a small group of ruins, found a remnant wall sheltered from the wind, and Xue Jiao ordered to camp in place.

Sun Yan originally thought that Su Ke's camel team would also stay here for one night, but he didn't expect that Su Ke decided to leave as soon as he sent everyone here, no matter how Sun Yan and Xiao Wang stayed, they couldn't stay, and Sun Yan could only say goodbye to them.

Before leaving, Su Ke asked Sun Yan about their future plans, and Sun Yan told him that he had contacted the rescue team, but whether he could come or not could only depend on luck, because there was no news from the rescue team in the past two days, and it seemed that something was wrong.

Su Ke was unimpressed, saying that the road could only be brought here, and they could not go any further. After speaking, he bent down from the hunchback and stretched out his hand to Sun Yan, Sun Yan was stunned for a moment, but then shook it, the two looked at each other and smiled, Su Ke left a sentence later, and disappeared into the twilight with the camel team.

At nine o'clock in the evening, everyone began to eat, instant noodles, ham sausages, roasted naan, after a whole day of high physical exertion, hunger has made everyone lose their reserve in front of food, gobble up. Even the only girl, Bai Bing, has lost her usual ladylike image.

After eating, the sky gradually sank, and at this moment the wind blew on the Lop Nur wasteland, the wind was sometimes strong and sometimes small, and everyone's face and body fell with a thick layer of white sand. The wind together, the night began to be cold again, Lao Ma picked up some stones and built a simple stove behind the remnant wall, everyone gathered around the fire, staring at each other, after a while, Xue Jiao asked everyone to introduce each other, because I had often heard Xue Jiao and Xiao Qike mention Sun Yan before, and knew that he was not only the son of the director of the Institute of Archaeology, but also the important national member Sun Qijun who disappeared for no reason 22 years ago was his uncle, so not only Lao Ma and Wei Xiao, Even the dwarf, who had been dismissive of these things before, took a keen interest in him.

After the introduction, Xiao Da Yan stretched out his head to ask about the disappearance of Sun Yan and Xiao Wang, and this topic immediately aroused everyone's interest. However, Sun Yan was not in this mood at the moment, so he couldn't care too much, he turned his head and asked Xue Yan about the situation of the rescue team here.

Xue Yan explained to him briefly, although he couldn't figure out what was going on, Sun Yan understood that the situation here was also very unoptimistic.

"That is to say, we can only pin all our hopes on Qi Dongrui now, but the point is that I haven't contacted him for two days, and something seems to be wrong on his side. Is there any news from your side? Sun Yan asked.

Xiao snorted and said: "The last time we talked to him was two days ago, and we haven't been in touch since then, but it was really wrong to listen to his movements at that time, he hung up the phone hastily, I didn't ask anything, and I don't know what happened!" ”

He spread his hands and said, "That kid said that he would come to us if he lived, and although he was not good, he would definitely not break his word."

Speaking of this, Xiao couldn't help but pause, and looked up to see the short man opposite cursing his mouth, staring at him helplessly.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere fell silent again.

In the middle of the ring, the old horse turned his head and asked Sun Yan: "Young man, how many supplies are left in your car." ”

Sun Yan said with a heavy face: "There is still some food, but there is not much water and oil left. ”

"Can the car hold on to a 150-kilometer road?" The old horse asked again.

Sun Yan smiled helplessly and said, "It's enough, it's too reluctant." Ninety kilometers is about the same, but if we have to go 150 kilometers, we have to abandon the car and walk for the second half of the road. ”

Lao Ma nodded, was silent for a while, and then said: "There is no need to wait for the rescue team, as soon as the wind and sand around here stop, we will immediately go back to the gold panning base. ”

The night passed in a long silence, and everyone curled up and shivered in the wind, and all spent the whole night shivering and solitude.
