Sun Yan moved the tent from the car, this kind of tent is dome-shaped, using double-rod cross support, disassembly and assembly are relatively simple, although simple, but because it is the first time to set up a tent, it still took a lot of effort, three people squatted on the ground and fiddled for a long time, and when the four tents were ready, it was already completely dark, Sun Yan looked at the time, it had been an hour.

The dark sky on the desert seemed to be extremely bright, Qi Dongrui took out a field lamp and hung it on the front of the car, the bright light made people feel a little relieved in the dark night when they couldn't see their fingers.

By the time an hour and a half had passed, the three of them had lost their breath, and from time to time they got up and looked into the distance, hoping to see the lights of the car. Sun Yan tried to circle around the camp, and found that the chariot that Batur and Xiao Dalip had left left a faint road on the saline ground, so he decided to follow this road to the south.

"Sun Yan, where are you going?" Xiao Wang shouted behind him.

"Don't worry, I won't go far, I'll be back soon." Sun Yan waved his hand.

He turned the flashlight to the brightest and walked forward on the road the car had driven out. Although he knew that he could not sit still because of anxiety, this kind of solo action was very dangerous, so he decided to go back after walking thirty meters away.

The saline field under my feet can be half a football field a little bigger, I don't know how far, when I reached the edge of the saline field, I vaguely heard the sound of a horn behind me. Looking back, the white light of the camp had turned into a blurred dot.

Worst! Sun Yan secretly screamed in his heart, and before he knew it, he had walked out and could be fifty meters away. Knowing that he couldn't go any further, he decided to go back the way he came.

But as soon as he was about to turn around, his eyes jumped, and he suddenly saw something outside the saline ground and shook for a moment.

Who?! Sun Yan thought it was an illusion, and hurriedly shook it with a flashlight, but it was okay not to look at it, but this look suddenly startled him, only to see a vague black shadow on the beach about 20 meters away from him, about half a meter high, very much like a person squatting on the ground.

Sun Yan chuckled in his heart, and a bad thought immediately popped up in his mind, he remembered the sand hermitage that squatted on the wall of Abmat yesterday, and the cold sweat immediately came down like a waterfall. Grandma's! If you're unlucky, drink cold water and stuff your teeth! Why did you run into this thing alone twice, and now you don't have a gun in your hand, and it's so far away from the camp, you will be caught by this thing before you run back, then you must die!

At the thought of death, Sun Yan's whole body was cold, he took a deep breath, his body reacted involuntarily, and he turned his head and ran as if he was reflexive, and he didn't know if he had already startled the snake, but there was no movement over there, and before he ran two steps, he felt that something was wrong, half a meter high? That monster doesn't seem that small!

After being stunned for a while, he mustered up the courage to turn around again and shine the flashlight on it, and saw that the black shadow was still squatting in place, shaking the flashlight, but it didn't move.

The flashlight in Sun Yan's hand can shine out about sixteen meters, and at a distance of 20 meters, he can only roughly see a gray outline, and he wonders what it is, it looks like a person. He cautiously took two steps forward, completely capturing the shadow in the flashlight.

Now I can see clearly, it is indeed a person squatting there, and it is a woman, although I can't see the dress and appearance clearly, but I can tell that she is holding her chin with her hand at the moment, tilting her head slightly, and looking at her side motionlessly.

"Who's there? Who are you?! Sun Yan's flashlight shook a few more times, and the miserable white beam was a little dazzling in the dark night, making his heart suddenly rise to his throat.

The woman didn't move, her pestle moving like a stone tablet.

"Who are you?! Who" Sun Yan asked again, this time his voice trembled, and he only felt that his legs were weak. The heart said that in the vast uninhabited desert like Lop Nur, how could a woman suddenly appear, could it be that she got lost in the Lop Nur expedition?

I asked three or four times in a row, but the other party did not respond, and the only thing that remained the same was her posture and her silence.

The surroundings were outrageously quiet, and Sun Yan's heart was crumbling uneasily like a drum. He knew that he would have to return to the camp immediately, and he couldn't go any further, but the woman's figure seemed to have a magical force calling him forward.

He gritted his teeth and decided to go up and have a look, which was twenty paces away anyway, and he would go back as soon as he saw it. After deciding to make a decision, he couldn't wait to move forward, but at this moment, someone suddenly pulled him behind him.

When he turned around, he saw Qi Dongrui panting behind him, obviously running after him, with two guns on his shoulders.

"Don't go any further, go back!" Qi Dongrui's eyes clearly showed some anxious looks, and his tone was also a little annoyed. Seeing Sun Yan's eyes widen and he looked frightened, he asked again, "What's wrong with you?" Why do you sweat so much? ”

"There's someone up ahead." Sun Yan wiped the cold sweat from his face and said.

"Who? Where is it? ”

"Here." Sun Yan hurriedly shone the flashlight, but this time, there was no woman under the flashlight, Sun Yan was stunned, and shook the flashlight around, but nothing was illuminated, and the woman seemed to disappear out of thin air.

Qi Dongrui frowned and asked, "Where is it?" No one. ”

"How is it possible, it was still there just now!" Sun Yan ran over and saw a footprint where the woman was staying, which was deep and shallow in the sand, and went west.

Seeing this, Sun Yan immediately beckoned Qi Dongrui to come and see, Qi Dongrui was also shocked when he saw it, and muttered in his heart, could it be the person who died in this desert? The two of them followed the footprints forward for a while, and found that the footprints had suddenly disappeared after a dozen steps!

The two of them paused, and looked at the last two footprints, one deep and one shallow, and were stunned for a long time.

"What the is evil, flying?" Sun Yan said embarrassedly.

Qi Dongrui grinned, thinking it was incredible, but he couldn't say why, he asked Sun Yan: "Do you really see a woman?" ”

"Definitely!" Sun Yan nodded, so he completely told the situation he had just encountered, and the expression on Qi Dongrui's face became even more complicated after hearing this.

After that, the two looked around the neighborhood again, but sure enough, there was nothing, and Xiao Wang on the other side of the camp was honking the horn of the car, and had no choice but to hurry back.

More than two hours have passed, and Batur and Xiao Dalip have not returned, and the three of them are restless like ants on a hot pot. Qi Dongrui sent four signal flares into the sky one after another, hoping to show them the way.

By the time it was more than ten o'clock, the three of them had a bottom in their hearts.

Sun Yan said: "Don't wait, they must be lost, let's sleep first, we must take care of our spirits, and we will go out to find it at dawn tomorrow." ”

The trio hung five lights on bamboo poles on the front of the car to ensure that Batur and his car could clearly see the camp in the distance.
