Chapter 284: Desert Adventure
So the three of us in the remaining four cars were able to find water, food, a compass, a shovel, sun-protective clothing, a first aid kit, etc. And we removed a hose from other cars to fill our gas tanks, and the containers that could hold gasoline were also filled with gasoline belts.
Without a satellite phone, you can't locate it, and you can't contact the outside world. The devil knows where we are now, maybe only a few dozen kilometers from the town of Lop Nur, maybe thousands of kilometers, and we have to go back and forth in the desert to find the spirit pattern, if we run out of fuel, we will die.
In this way, Wei Shengjin drove us around with these off-road vehicles as the center to look for traces of Lingwen, originally I thought that if Lingwen drove away, then she should bring a lot of supplies. Even if she gets lost, she should be able to hold out for a while, and there will be no danger for the time being. If she's on foot, she shouldn't have gone far, and we'll definitely spot her.
But it was completely unexpected, and we searched for several hours, from the time the sun was shining until the sun was setting in the west, and we still did not find a trace, not even a trace.
As a last resort, we had to stop and discuss a solution.
"If I were Kim Buliu, I would burn down the few remaining cars! Then drive away," Ye Guangci said.
"You mean it's the Spirit Pattern that drives away? If that's the case, she'll go back to us. Could it be that she is really lost? I said.
"I'm afraid I'm afraid she'll get lost before she finds here, and she won't be able to hold out for hours without water in the desert," Wei Shengjin said worriedly.
"Maybe Jin Buliu also caught the spirit pattern and took her and Uncle Qin away together"
Don't talk about it, expand the scope and look for it, you must find the spirit pattern!
So our car scurried around in the desert like a headless fly, and the back of the car rolled up with yellow sand.
We and Ye Guangci stuck our necks out of the car despite the heat, for fear of missing the slightest clue.
Suddenly, I felt a little cool on my face, and when I looked up, the sky that had been burning like a fire just now suddenly turned gray. In the distance, where the sand and sky meet, I don't know when an endless dark cloud has appeared.
No way! Is it going to rain? It is estimated that this Taklamakan Desert will not get a few rains a year, so is it possible that such a good thing has allowed us to catch up?
The wind outside the car rumbled across the body, the wind became stronger and stronger, rolling up the sand and hitting the face painfully, and we couldn't open our eyes, so we had no choice but to retract our heads into the car and close the windows.
"What's going on! This car can't be driven, you can't see it at all! Wei Shengjin turned around and shouted.
When we looked out of the car, the yellow sand was overwhelming, rustling on the car window!
"It's a sandstorm! It's over! I thought it was going to rain! I shouted. I did some homework before I came, and when I looked at the scene outside, it must have been a black sandstorm.
"Don't panic! It's good if we don't get out in the car," Ye Guangci shouted.
"If we don't go out, we will definitely not go out, I am afraid that we will hide in the car, and when the black sandstorm passes, we will be buried alive along with the car. But now there is no other choice but to hide in the car! I said.
"Ahh Wei Shengjin, who was in the driver's seat, suddenly shouted.
I was startled and asked, "What's the nerve?" What's wrong? ”
Wei Shengjin was shocked: "There was a person standing in front of the car just now, didn't you see it?" ”
Ye Guangci and I both craned our necks to look through the outside of the glass, the car was gray, the visibility was very low, there was nothing, let alone anyone.
I patted Wei Shengjin on the shoulder and said, "You must be dazzled, how can people stand firm in such a big sandstorm?" Even if he was a human being, he didn't come to us for help? Is it because our car is not wide enough? ”
"But I really saw a figure standing in front of our car just now, motionless!"
I smiled and said, "Still motionless?" What are you eating while standing there motionless? Okay, let's think about what we do, I'm really worried about being buried alive by this sandstorm! ”
The wind outside the car made a strange howl and a gurgling sound mixed with sand particles hitting the windows, and the noise was getting louder and louder, and I was really afraid that the windows would be smashed. After a while, our car windows were all covered with yellow sand, like curtains closed.
We sat in the car and waited in fear, hoping that the sandstorm would pass as soon as possible.
After a while, our car started to squeak and sway.
"I'll go! It won't blow the car into the sky, and it won't kill us if it falls! ”
Wei Shengjin shouted.
"No, it won't! It's not a tornado again! But it could blow us low, so we could easily be buried in the sand," I said.
In this way, our car sometimes drifted left and sometimes right, we stayed in the car for an hour, when the wind outside gradually became quieter, I wanted to push the door out to see, but I didn't expect the door to open, a look, the sand outside the window almost covered the whole glass
"Half of the car is buried! I could only smash open the glass and dig up the sand and go out," Ye Guangci on the side said while pushing the car door.
So I took out a flying knife and smashed the glass, but I didn't expect that the sand outside the window poured in like flowing water, instantly submerging my and Ye Guangci's knees, and it was still pouring in.
"That's not going to work, cut the roof of the car with a flying knife!" Ye Guangci said.
Wei Shengjin, who was in the front seat, immediately pulled out his throwing knife and cut a big hole in the roof of the car.
When we struggled to climb out of the roof, we found that only one roof of the car was exposed, and if the black sandstorm continued for a while, it is estimated that our car would be completely buried, and the three of us would be suffocated alive in the car.
Looking around, the wind has blown the terrain into a big change, and the surroundings have been completely unrecognizable.
"We have to dig out the car, and if there is no car in this desert, it will definitely be a dead end," Wei Shengjin said.
"Then dig it, don't waste time, if I have another black sandstorm, it will be over," I said and began to dig in the sand, and as soon as I tried hard, there was a heart-piercing pain from the wound on my back.
Ye Guangci was shot twice in the back, and his injuries were more serious than mine.
In the end, the glorious task of digging sand can only be handed over to Wei Shengjin, fortunately, he was not injured, and his strength is far better than ordinary people, he first dug up the sand at the back of the car, took out the shovel from the trunk, and then the speed of digging sand was much faster, about two or three hours of digging, we finally drove the car out of the sand pit.
It was already completely dark, so we counted the supplies on the car, and the food was sufficient, and the water should be enough for the three of us to last three or four days if we saved a little.
The worst thing is that there is not much gasoline left, and we can only run another seven or eight hundred kilometers when we fill up the fuel tank just enough to fill up the gasoline we brought from the car! If you want to find someone in this vast sea of sand, seven or eight hundred kilometers is obviously far from enough. However, the three of us decided to search for it overnight, and every minute of delay reduced the chances of survival of the spirit tattoo by one point, and now I truly realized that time is life.
Ye Guangci and I sat in the back seat, holding a strong light in our hands and shining out of the car window, as time passed, the premonition in my heart was getting worse and worse!
Ye Lingwen, you stupid girl, where the hell have you been! How I want to see you suddenly appear in front of me and wave to me! Why didn't I stop you from letting you go to Wei Shengjin alone!
I tried to suppress the despair in my heart, a day and a night have passed, how long can a person support in this vast sea of sand without water!
I felt an inexplicable panic in my heart, and I didn't dare to continue thinking about it......
