After another hour of walking through without any movement, we finally came out of the oasis and there was a desert outside.

At this moment, the moon in the sky is as round as a jade plate, exuding a bright light, the desert under the moonlight, faint, like a layer of light tulle, yellow sand grains during the day, at this moment like a sea sand glance, with some white light.

I turned around and looked at the dense banana forest behind me, and suddenly I felt like I was in a different world, looking at the sand grains under my feet, I actually felt a sense of intimacy. Surely the others felt the same way as me, and we stood quietly on the edge for a while before we stepped into the desert and drifted away from the eerie oasis.

In the night, Dr. Zhang took a compass to identify the direction, then waved his hand and said, "Continue west." She understood what she meant, and continued to walk into the heart of the desert, and she had not given up yet.

As soon as the fat man heard the spirit, he immediately slapped a sycophant, praising Dr. Zhang's courage and courage to the sky, and the women did not let the eyebrows, but the surname Zhang was not like A-Ning, and the dead people in the team could not blink their eyes, Dr. Zhang's face was expressionless, and the fat man's sycophants slapped on the horse's hooves, and the mood was also very unhappy, and we were bored in the moonlight for more than half an hour, and finally I felt that something was wrong, so I said: "It's better to find a place to camp, it's not safe to hike in the desert at night." ”

Who knew that Dr. Zhang frowned and said, "At night, the insects and snakes are hidden, and it is the best time to hurry." ”

I didn't expect her to be so stubborn, so I said, "Why did the old guide have to go to the poplar forest to set up camp in the first place?" Didn't he tell you why? At that time, the three of us were sleeping in the sand, and when the sand hit, we were buried alive, and you didn't have anything to do, doesn't that make sense? ”

Perhaps it was my statement that moved her, and Dr. Zhang groaned slightly and said, "Listen to you, set up camp." "That being said, no one knew exactly where to camp, and in the end, as is customary, we found a hollow to camp on to avoid the wind and sand.

Dr. Zhang and the others brought all the equipment equipped by the state, which is relatively advanced, and the tent cloth is not known to be made of what material, which is stronger than what I have come into contact with before, and when it is opened, it can accommodate four people.

We set up two tents, four men squeezed one, two women lived in one, the middle-aged man didn't talk to us, he went to bed very early, the desert was boring, the group tossed during the day, the four eyes and the fat man went to bed early, the wound on my back hurt badly, plus the head was a bunch of miscellaneous things, so I couldn't sleep, so I went out of the tent to smoke a cigarette, but I saw Dr. Zhang reading the diary with a flashlight.

Haven't you already read it once? What else are you reading?

Is that something appealing?

I walked over and sat down next to her, and she looked at me and didn't speak. I felt embarrassed, so I pointed to the German on it and said, "What is written?" She looked at it for a long time before shaking her head and said, "It's a diary, but what is recorded on it is very ...... It's weird. I saw that she didn't seem to intend to hide it, so I humbly asked, surnamed Zhang, nodded, put her slender fingers next to the notebook, and began to translate.

It's a headless diary, two-thirds of it is rotten, and the remaining one-third is blurry, so Dr. Zhang struggled to translate it.

The translation starts from a recognizable place, which is a clueless sentence, recorded as follows:

…… God, I can't believe that we can still come out alive, but where do we go next? This desert is too big, and without the guidance of a mentor, how can Peter and I get out?

This is followed by a second diary, which is recorded in more detail.

Weather: Sunny Time: July 26, 1948 Location: Taklama Gangada Oasis

When I picked up this pen, I didn't know how to write it, this month, what I had experienced, it was my nightmare, but time was running out, this oasis was being devoured by demons, I don't know how long I could last, but I had to write something down now to record it, this oasis, it had been occupied by demons......

This matter must start from that place.

Peter, my mentor and I, and a Chinese guide, were stuck in that place, we were desperate, it was a huge labyrinth, and anyone who walked in couldn't get out, and I thought, we're going to be finished, we're going to die in a foreign land, and I kept begging the guru not to give up, to take us out, but the guru was very strange, he was almost in a state of madness, he didn't listen to anyone, he just kept walking in there.

The three of us followed him helplessly, I don't know how many walks, and then, the Chinese guide fell behind, completely lost contact with us, we haven't eaten for a long time, I think, if I continue to walk aimlessly in this way, sooner or later I will fall to the ground silently.

But that place was so terrible that I couldn't face him alone, and Peter, and I, could only follow behind the Guru and watch him walk around like a madman with bloodshot eyes, and suddenly, the Guru stopped his body, and he stared at a wall in front of him, and his whole body trembled.

There were a lot of strange lines carved on that wall, like an abstract painting, and I couldn't see anything strange at all. Then the teacher turned around, grabbed my hand, and said to me and Peter, "Son, you shouldn't stay here, you shouldn't stay with me, the dying man, you have to go out." ”

I want to get out too, but how?

Peter was already frightened, he had been there before, he had been attacked by a strange vine plant, and since then he had been in a shadow, and he always said that something had something in his body, and I checked it, and his body was normal, and I think he had been frightened into his mind.

I asked the teacher, "How are we going to get out, this is a silent temple of the City of Death, there is no exit, there is no exit at all!" "I felt like I was a little out of control, and my voice was much louder, hoarse echoing through the empty city, as if I was the only living person.

The Mentor's always kind face, which had become thin and hideous, like a wide-eyed mummy, suddenly grabbed my and Peter's hands and muttered, "Believe me, God bless you, I already know where the exit is." Then the Professor's old body ran like an antelope, and Peter and I had to chase after him.

The place was so big that you would never see anything repeated, and we chased after the figure of the mentor and kept running in it, and finally the figure of the mentor was gone, and Peter and I lost the last spiritual support, and we almost collapsed, and we held hands, like two lost children, crying in the castle that we could never get out, and in the end, we were so tired that we couldn't do anything, and our bodies trembled and we fell to the ground.

At that moment, the only thing I could do was to keep praying to God until I passed out.

Perhaps God really sent angels to save us, and when I woke up, I found myself in the desert, and as far as the eye could see, the yellow sand was all over the sky, and the sun was blazing.

Peter was gone, and that place was gone.

As if it never existed.

I ran wildly in the desert, and the great joy overwhelmed me, and I was like crazy, jumping, yelling, crying in the desert, and finally, I remembered, Peter is gone, what about the teacher? Did he escape too?

I started calling them by name.

Eventually, I found Peter curled up under a sand dune, his eyes wide and his look horrified as if he had seen the devil.

I asked him what was wrong, and he just kept saying one thing over and over again: "There is a devil who came out with us, and it is ...... Over here. He said as he pointed to his chest, the sun was so big, but I felt cold all over my body.

Peter and completely unable to be independent, but I can't leave him, we have known each other for four years, we have studied with our mentor, we have traveled to countless places, we have been to the Amazon to investigate lost civilizations, we have been to the pyramids of Egypt, we have been to the Grand Canyon of South America, this is my best partner and partner, no matter when, I can not abandon him.

I found a dry branch and calculated our approximate distance from the sun's measurements, but I couldn't do it because we had so little information.

At this moment, we should be in the hinterland of the Taklamakan region, near the northwest direction, and as long as we follow the place where the sun rises, we may be out of the desert.

Then I helped Peter to walk in the desert, he was completely insane, he was talking so much that I couldn't understand what he was saying, we had been walking in the desert for two days, and our bodies had run out of energy, and during this time, we had no energy to replenish, so we fainted in the desert all night.

When I woke up the next day, my body felt a little better. Every living organism has a strange ability, and this ability is called breakthrough genetic protection, a theory published by a Swedish biologist.

The biologist had done experiments on many animals, tying pressure bags to the limbs of animals, at that time, his experimental subject was an adult gray-haired wolf, and after the pressure bag was tied, the data of the pressure bag could show the increase or decrease of the animal's muscle strength.

The biologist then locked the wolf in a strong glass box and denied him any food or water, and the wolf was kept inside and kept banging against the glass to try to escape, but after three days, the wolf ran out of energy and could not get back up.

But the wolf did not die, even if it fell to the ground, its eyes were still open, and when it stood up the next day, biologists found that its muscular strength had returned to its peak state.

Through continuous experimentation, the biologist determined that there was a miraculous power in every living being, which he named at the time breakthrough gene protection, and that only resilient people could activate this recessive gene. But genetic inheritance has not yet been proven, so the biologist's breakthrough genetic protection became a big joke in the academic community at the time, and it was quickly forgotten.

I think that after four days and four nights without food and water, I miraculously woke up again, and felt that my muscles were full of strength, probably because of that miraculous breakthrough genetic protection power that was touched, and now, I began to pity and admire the scholar.

He did discover the magical power of a living being, but this power, like the heliocentric theory of the past, was completely denied by the ignorant.
