Three days later, the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the southeastern lake region, the easternmost part of the Taklamakan Desert Lop Nur.

A black off-road vehicle is driving over the vast and empty Taklamakan Desert, when the surface temperature is close to 60°C.

Even if you sit in the car and turn on the air conditioner at maximum speed, you can feel the stuffiness of a hot air.

Lei Zi sat in the driver's seat and drove the car, sweating slightly on his head, while Lone Wolf and I sat in the back seat to rest.

The music in the car is a song of afterlife, and the song is graceful and listening, which makes me and the lone wolf enjoy it very much.

Lei Zi, who was sitting in the driver's seat, said: "My mom, it's too hot, the air conditioner won't blow out, right?" ”

"The wind speed and cold air conditioning have been turned on to the maximum, Xiaolin, how long will we go like this?"

Lei Zi cultivated to the ground level, and he was also panting for breath by this kind of hot weather, and his tone was somewhat tired and impatient.

I squinted my eyes, not opening them, but I replied, "It should be soon." ”

The three of us, after separating from Mount Tai and Song Yu, hurried to Lop Nur in Xinjiang.

finally followed Leizi's mind and bought a large off-road vehicle that he liked.

We drove all the way to Xinjiang, and several of us changed the car and drove for three days.

At this time, the lone wolf, who was half-lying in the back seat and had a pair of large black sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, sat up.

threw away the magazine in his hand, took off his coat, and said to Lei Zi: "Stop, I'll have a while." ”

Lei Zi didn't say anything, parked the car on the side of the road, and switched places with the lone wolf.

It's not so much a roadside as it is a random road with gravel mixed with sand.

In the past ten seconds of changing seats, when Lei Zi got on the bus, he brought a wave of heat on his body.

He pounced on my face, and was blocked by my aura and couldn't get close to me.

Lei Zi sat next to me, looked at me and said, "You kid is the most unreliable, you said that three hours ago." ”

"By the way, didn't you tell me that you could drive another 300 kilometers to get there?"

"I've been driving for five hours in one go, and I've been running for at least 600 kilometers."

"Three hundred kilometers, I drove for five hours, could it be that I drove an ox cart?"

"You kid can't know the way, do you? Besides, isn't our destination the Ear of the Earth? ”

I ignored Lei Zi's ridicule and squinted my eyes: "This time it's really coming." ”

This answer was again, Lei Zi patted his forehead helplessly, with an expression of being completely defeated by me.

Just nestled in the back seat and didn't bother to pay attention to me, let the lone wolf drive the off-road vehicle, slammed on the accelerator and rushed forward.

Scattered throughout the desert, there are a few dry plants, but very few.

This kind of no-man's land, every place contains dangers, and few people will enter it.

The lone wolf drove us through the Lop Nur Grand Canyon and drove into the depths.

Lop Nur as a whole is a Yadan landform, and Longkan is not only a dry clay layer.

The morphology of the desert, including veins, is also caused by the strong winds that occur in the desert.

Even when I looked out the window, I saw the corpses buried in the desert, which had long since become dried corpses.

Although it is called a no-man's land, there are still some traces of animal activity.

Sand wolves, as well as some insects, although it is a desert, but there are also oases inside.

The lone wolf drove for another two hours, and saw a river reflecting green light in the distance.

I have already made a strategy for this river beforehand, and the name is Peacock River, and the water of the river is as green as a peacock's tail.

But after passing through this river, about fifty miles deeper, there is an ancient city that has disappeared for a thousand years.

When my grandfather met me in Changbai Mountain, he didn't mention this ancient city, so I think it should be fine.

I am the better of the three, but Leizi and Lone Wolf are a little bitter, and most of them are spent in the car.

I thought about it for a while, and then said to the lone wolf who was driving: "About a hundred miles ahead, there is a disappearing ancient city."

"We can take a rest there, replenish some consumption, and save the sun in such a hot day."

"Okay, got it."

The lone wolf, who was concentrating on driving the vehicle, calmly agreed, holding the steering wheel with one hand and grabbing a bottle of water with the other and taking a few sips.

The car drove along the road in the direction of the Peacock River, and soon it was getting closer and closer, and the river also appeared in front of us.

The river is green and shiny, and it doesn't look clean, and the river is more than 700 kilometers long.

Along the river, it seems that there is a vanished civilization, and there were two civilizations that once existed here.

One is the Xiaohe civilization, which existed more than 3,000 years ago, and the other is the Loulan civilization.

This civilization existed for a shorter period than the Xiaohe civilization, which has a history of more than 2,000 years.

I don't know if the three of us will run into a vanishing civilization while driving, no matter which one it is.

The lone wolf parked the car on the edge of the Peacock River, and several of us got out of the car and walked towards the river.

"Xiaolin, what are you going to do when you get out of the car? What's in this river? ”

Lei Zi asked puzzled beside me, fanning the wind with a plastic sheet in his hand.

Because it's so hot, even though it's already by the river, the sun is still like a fireball.

The scorching desert made the three of us in the desert, and the water in our bodies was lost quickly.

"No, this river water is just ordinary river water, there is no problem."

"Leizi, lone wolf, this is the Peacock River, dozens of miles ahead, and we will reach the place where we are going."

"It's also known as the Ear of the Earth, and it's our final stop, the Devil's Triangle."

Lei Zi suddenly said, "It turns out that the ancient city you are talking about is near the Death Devil's Triangle?" ”

"That's right, if I'm not mistaken, the ruins of the ancient city here are Loulan."

"The Peacock River in front of me, in terms of feng shui, plays a role in gathering wind and qi."

"You see, along the source, the river here is meandering, and the front of the house is surrounded by each other,"

"But this river is a bit big, and the ring in front of the house should be in that thousand-year-old city that has disappeared."

"Another point is that the river should not rush straight to it, and it is not appropriate to go straight when it goes."

"Because, the bend of the river is where the dragon's qi is condensed, and only by twisting and turning can the qi be gathered."

"Okay, there's nothing to see here, let's get in the car and go, it's only a few dozen miles away."

The three of them turned around and left the Peacock River, where the lone wolf had been driving for a long time.

This time I took the initiative and said, "I'll drive the next road, you guys can rest."

"It's very likely that there will be trouble then, I'm afraid there will be branches, you two recuperate."

Lei Zi and Lone Wolf were not pretentious, listened to my advice, and both sat in the back seat to rest.

Even the lone wolf has double-checked his weapon, which is a habit of the lone wolf.

Every time a few of us went out on errands and went down to the tomb to explore, the lone wolf would do it again.

In less than half an hour, he traveled more than twenty miles in the desert, and at this moment he had passed the middle section of the Peacock River.

There is obviously a lot less water in the river here, there are a lot of plants on both sides, and I even saw reeds.

The reeds were sprouting and there were some cotton bolls mixed in them, each of which was snow-white.

This makes the three of us feel a little more relaxed in this hot and nervous mood.

After another stretch, the river is noticeably less watery, and even some areas have exposed the riverbed.

Lei Zi held the map in his hand and said to me: "It's almost there, there should be more than ten miles to go."

Finally, after driving ten miles away, I saw a ruins in the distance, and some tall giant trees stood here and there.

Along the way, the three of us drove in shifts, and the road lasted nearly ten hours, and it was already dark and it seemed that we had to set up camp.
