Chapter 91: The Woman With Her Back to Him

We got off the camel and the group dispersed in formation, observing the surroundings and keeping an eye out for any sights. The further back we go, the more ruins we have, the view is blocked by the walls, and it becomes a little narrower.

Wang Zehai said: "Maybe this is the place, when the wind and sand come, go to the oasis to hide, the wind and sand are gone, and then come back here, strange, do you think that this place is cooler than the oasis?" “

When he reminded me of this, I felt the same way, which was really weird.

Han Zitong said: "In that case, why don't you just live in the oasis?" Why do you need to go back and forth? Could it be that there is something else in this place that attracts Professor Wang? "The Professor Wang she is talking about is Wang ** Guo.

Tan Jian said lukewarmly: "The person hasn't been found yet, you can't help but think too far." ”

This reminds us that everyone retracted their divergent thoughts and decided to search the area first, and then everything could only be determined when someone was really found, otherwise any more speculation would be in vain. The area of this ancient ruins is very large, and the lower we go, the more ruins there are, which firmly controls our sight, and if we look for it at the current speed, we don't know how long it will be delayed.

In the end, Zhou Xuanye said: "It's better to look for it separately." Tiangu, if you are wounded, you will stay where you are and take care of the camels and equipment, and we will divide the rest into four groups to find them. Han Xu followed Han Zitong as usual, and everyone had no opinions, so they dispersed.

I'm afraid to lead; The camel walked under a stone wall, and now the sun was setting in the west, casting a shadow just enough to hide from the sun. Camels are not irritable animals, even if they are not bolted, they lie quietly on the ground, camels that have lived in the desert for generations, know best how to save energy, they do not neigh and do not move around, they are the most silent and reliable companions in the desert.

After waiting for about 20 minutes, I didn't wait for people to come back, but the wind and sand around me seemed to be a little bigger. I had to put on windproof eyes, and finally the wind and sand were a little abnormal, and I drilled straight into my nose, so I had to find a sandproof mask and put it on.

At the same time, I feel that there is something wrong with this big wind and sand, in the past few days in the desert, small wind and sand are frequent, but there are very few that have reached this level, and there is a growing trend.

At this moment, the east wind is blowing, and the wind is blowing sand and rocks, and the sky and the earth are obscured by sand and dust, and the vision has become blurred. I couldn't sit still, because I found that the wind that came this time was probably a careful storm.

Han Zitong told us about the environment and topography of the desert on the road, at this moment, there is not a trace of clouds in the sky, and the sand and dust are blown very high, like a large sand cloud pressing on the top of people's heads. This is typical of sandstorms.

Sandstorms have different destructive power according to different levels, but if you encounter a slightly larger sandstorm in the desert, you must find a way to find a place to shelter from the wind, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. At this time, the camels also seemed to feel the danger, and they were originally lying on the ground, but they stood up one after another. Struggling to get out of this place.

Their ropes were in my hands, and the three quiet camels struggled together, and the force was so great that I staggered.

I quickly clenched it with my hands, knowing that all our equipment was on the camels, and if they were frightened and lost, we would be finished! I tugged at the rope hard, screaming in my mouth, staring at the wind and sand and looking around, secretly anxious: Why didn't Tan Jian come back and were blown away by the wind and sand?

No, let's find a place to hide first.

I looked around and saw that there was a leeward vent not far away, a half-collapsed building, leaving only a triangular half of the room.

I took the camel and hid inside, and the camel immediately fell silent, craned its neck and looked around, and finally lay down on the ground and buried its head under its neck, as if disguised as an ostrich. I saw that these three guys were quiet, and I was worried that Tan Jian and the others would not find me when they came back, so I wrapped my coat and went back to the previous place against the wind.

The wind is really getting bigger and bigger, and there are occasionally some small pebbles mixed in the dust, which hurt people's faces, and some hit the windproof goggles, and even made a small crackling sound. As the wind increased, in the end, the sky and the earth were dark, and it was difficult for me to see clearly, even if I stretched out my hand.

Tan Jian is not a fool, I estimate that in this case, they must have found a place to hide, so they didn't stay longer, and hurried back to the shelter.

As soon as the wind blew, I don't know how long it blew, but it was not hot, but a little cold. I huddled in the camel pile to keep warm, listening to the howling wind around me, wondering when the wind would stop, but after waiting for a long time, the wind not only did not decrease, but grew stronger. Yellow sand piled up on both sides of the area and began to flow down my side, but in order to avoid being buried alive, I had to get up from the camel pile and clean it out.

And so, until the wind had subsided, and I retreated back into the herd. The camels were warm in the herd, and I was a little tired from the physical labor I had just done, so I sat down and fell asleep. I didn't sleep for long, and when I woke up, it was just over 4:50, and the wind and sand around me had stopped.

From the beginning to the end, it took about an hour and 40 minutes.

I stretched and led the camel out of this shelter, intending to go to Tan Jian and the others to join me.

The five of them are scattered, so when the wind and sand come, they should also find their own places to hide. I couldn't go and look for them one by one, so I went back to my previous position and waited for someone. I waited for more than twenty minutes, but I didn't see a single figure.

This surprised me a little, and I felt a faint sense of worry.

Could it be that something was wrong?

No, it's not a matter of sitting still, I'll have to look for it.

At that moment, I got on a camel and began to search for people in this group of ancient ruins with three camels. After more than an hour of wind and sand, the appearance of the entire ancient ruins area has changed. Some of the original bare remnants of the ridge were buried in the yellow sand again, while some of the original buried in the ground were exposed, and the whole landscape was changed.

I couldn't help but wonder, and said in my heart, Tan Jian and a few people, should they be buried by the wind and sand, right?

At that time, Tan Jian went to the southeast, so I looked for the southeast first, for no other reason, because if Tan Jian was found first, then the chances of finding the rest of the people would be much greater. Moreover, compared to the rest of the people, Tan Jian walked his soul once before, and he was much inferior in physical strength, if the group encountered any danger, then Tan Jian had the greatest chance of having an accident, and based on these two considerations, I decided to find Tan Jian first.

Since it is riding on a camel, the field of vision is naturally much wider, and with the telescope in hand, it is even more convenient. It's a pity that the area of this area is too big after all, and people are in it, just like a little ant, plus the blind spot formed by many ancient ruins, it is really not easy to find people.

Although the person didn't see it, but after walking a hundred meters forward, a very strange thing appeared in the lens of the telescope.

In the vast yellow sand, the thing was very eye-catching, a very, very large circle, like a huge black hole.

What's that?

Since I hadn't been to this area before, I couldn't tell if it was there or if it was blown by the sand. It is embedded in the yellow sand, like a black eye. I immediately swayed the camel towards the strange eye, looking for traces of Tan Blade along the way, intending to go over to see what was going on.

In the end, I didn't find Tan Blade, but stopped in front of this eye.

I was going to correct my words, and when I got closer, it was not a black hole, but a place similar to the Colosseum in ancient Rome, in the shape of a funnel, all the way down, huge stone steps, forming a circle of spiral seats.

And its bottom is very deep, its area is not as large as the Colosseum, but the depth is considerable, at a glance, the bottom of the place, is a clearing covered with yellow sand. In that clearing, there may have been something originally, but now it has been covered with yellow sand, and nothing can be seen clearly.

This place, which is likely to be used to hold some large-scale events or performances, looks simple and vigorous, with a solemn appearance, and people standing on the periphery suddenly have a sense of insignificance.

My gaze slowly swept over the venue, but at this moment, the corner of my eye suddenly found that there was a person sitting in the southwest corner of the meeting!

The man sat with his back to me, facing the venue, sitting in a dignified manner, with long black hair spread out, like a woman!

My first reaction was Han Zitong, but then I thought that Han Zitong didn't have such long hair at all.

Who is she!

These three words suddenly swirled in my mind.

And at this moment, the woman suddenly stood up, her head slightly to the side, as if she had spotted me, and was going to look back at me, this action made my heart thump. But in the end, she didn't look back, but kept moving forward, like a labyrinth, but no matter how she went, she always left me with only one back.

This woman is very tall, and the clothes she wears are also the common clothes of modern girls, if it weren't for her dress, if it weren't for the fact that the sun hadn't set at this time, I would have doubted that I had met a female ghost.

And at this moment, the woman, when she was almost near the bottom, suddenly disappeared.

I blinked hard, opened it again, and yes, the woman did disappear, as if everything just now was my hallucination.

At this moment, I felt a sense of hesitation in my heart, because this woman seemed so strange that I didn't know whether I should go down and check it out. My subconscious told me that something wasn't right, and that if I followed, something might happen.

However, there seems to be an invisible force in my heart that attracts and urges me to hurry up.

In the midst of his hesitation, the woman reappeared, and she looked up at me.

It's her!

There was a buzz in my head, and I jerked up my foot and chased after me.
