Everyone has a sixth sense. As a full-time bodyguard, Laura will instinctively look for those unsafe factors in any environment.
Lop Nur, there are too many unsafe factors.
"No, nothing. It may be a severe bump and some nausea."
Laura raised her right hand holding the gun and wiped a sweat on her forehead.
Nausea, there is no need to take a gun, but the surrounding environment makes her instinctively nervous! For example, she forgot that she still had a gun in her hand and went to wipe her sweat. It was a very dangerous move.
Although Xia Xiaoyun doesn't understand Laura's world, she can also see her insincerity at this time.
After a moment of silence, she asked, "do you think we shouldn't come to this place?"
Laura looked out of the window and whispered, "President Xia, I always think something is wrong."
"What's wrong?"
Xia Xiaoyun hurriedly asked.
"There's something wrong with the direction."
Laura leaned over and looked up at the stars in the night sky: "President Xia, can you see where we are going now?"
Xia Xiaoyun also looked out, hesitated and said, "isn't it going north?"
They followed Peng Kaisheng and others. After leaving Guqiang County, they went north all the way, as if they had never turned a corner.
"No."
Laura shook her head and said slowly, "at least not now. Just look at the Big Dipper."
People who get lost at night can determine the direction as long as they can find the Big Dipper in good weather - this is the most common and important one in all field survival manuals.
Xia Xiaoyun of course also knew that she unconsciously pasted it on the window and looked out. She soon found the Big Dipper.
It's on her right hand side.
All the way north from Guqiang County, the guiding star of the Big Dipper should be right in front.
When it suddenly appeared on the right hand side, it proved that Xia Xiaoyun and she were driving West.
It's not uncommon to lose the sense of direction unconsciously in the Gobi desert.
"How, how can it go west?"
Xia Xiaoyun was stunned, but she didn't mean to be too surprised. She murmured, "it may be the location of the ancient tomb, right in that direction?"
Before departure, Peng Kaisheng didn't tell Xia Xiaoyun where the ancient tomb was, so she had reason to guess so.
Laura said, "but we have been driving in this direction for more than an hour. The speed has always been maintained at more than 50 kilometers per hour. It is estimated that it has driven a hundred miles to the West. Most importantly, the West seems -- "
After saying this, Laura shut up and the speed slowed down significantly.
Xia Xiaoyun hurriedly asked, "what seems to be in the west?"
After sucking her nose, Laura pretended to smile easily and said, "ha ha, President Xia, you should know that since ancient times, no one, even a professional expedition, has crossed Lop Nur?"
Laura was right. Lop Nur, located in the Tarim Basin, has long been crossed vertically, but no one has actually or truly crossed horizontally.
What Laura said can be found on the Internet. Xia Xiaoyun seems to have seen it before.
So after Laura's reminder, she immediately realized something: Laura said that up to now, their car has been driving westward at a speed of no less than 50 kilometers per hour for more than an hour, which proves that they have begun to cross in the real sense!
Since ancient times, no one has dared to cross Lop Nur!
So, Peng Kaisheng, how dare they do this, and it's still in the dark.
Also, summer asked them, how could they come here to steal tombs regardless of life and death, just for those porcelain and bone utensils?
Suddenly, Xia Xiaoyun hit a thrill, quickly grabbed her mobile phone and began to call Peng Kaisheng's mobile phone.
She wants Peng Kaisheng to stop, find out where he is going, and then talk about it later.
What just made her a little flustered was that there was no signal on her cell phone.
Originally, Lop Nur is the lowest point of the Tarim Basin. There are abundant iodine salt mines and magnetite mines under the basin. It is precisely because of the existence of these magnetic mines that they can cause strong interference to electronic instruments and satellite signals, resulting in the failure and crash of aircraft, car navigation and other instruments passing over, thus winning the title of land Bermuda.
So Xia Xiaoyun's cell phone has no signal, which is no longer normal.
"Come on, speed up and catch up with them!"
Xia Xiaoyun was a little flustered. She raised her finger to the tail light of the police car hundreds of meters in front and ordered Laura to speed up.
Just now Laura found something wrong and explained to Xia Xiaoyun that when they had embarked on the journey across Lop Nur, they slowed down slightly. In just one minute, Peng Kaisheng's car had fallen hundreds of meters behind them.
Fortunately, it's not too far, and the rear tail lights of the two cars in front are also very conspicuous in the dark.
Laura immediately stepped on the accelerator, regardless of the bumps. The Wrangler's SUV gave a deep and powerful roar and jumped forward.
Just a dozen meters, Xia Xiaoyun's eyes and pupils suddenly contracted!
The rear tail lights of the two cars in front disappeared at this time. It was like being swallowed up by the night. There was no trace to find.
Yes, the stars over Lop Nur tonight are bright, and the dark blue sky looks very pleasant, but the stars are not enough to let people see things hundreds of meters away.
After Peng Kaisheng's car suddenly turned off the lights, Xia Xiaoyun suddenly had a palpitating wrong feeling -- it seemed that all the darkness, like a flood and beast, rushed out from all directions at a speed she couldn't imagine, completely encircling them.
With a bang, Laura stomped on the brakes.
This is an instinctive reaction after a sudden encounter.
But soon, she immediately released the brake and almost stepped on the accelerator to the bottom with one foot.
The Wrangler's off-road vehicle roared and bumped furiously. In just a dozen seconds, the speed exceeded 80 miles and sped in the direction of Peng Kaisheng and others.
The speed is 80 miles per hour. It's definitely not fast on the expressway in the mainland.
But don't forget that this is on the Gobi desert where there is no road. It's 80 miles, which is enough for the car to bump up to half a meter high. If they weren't both wearing seat belts, their heads would definitely hit the roof.
"Slow down, slow down, the car will turn over!"
Xia Xiaoyun screamed in horror.
But she didn't know that Laura, who had long been tortured by unknown dangers, finally broke her tight nerves. She couldn't hear what she was shouting. She just wanted to find Peng Kaisheng and them as soon as possible.
Although Laura is a professional bodyguard, both physical and psychological, she is very strong, but she is only a girl after all. Most of the setbacks she has experienced in the past only appear on the training ground.
When the strange wild danger that had never happened suddenly came, she had lost her mind. Instead of listening to Xia Xiaoyun's cry to slow down, she stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.
The dark green off-road vehicle, like a drunken mad cow, roared and rocked forward -- finally, when the front left wheel was pressed on a half meter high Boulder, the car gave the last desperate roar and flew like a broken kite in Xia Xiaoyun's voice.
He drew a stiff arc at low altitude and fell heavily to the ground with a loud thud.
Four wheels in the sky.
Woo, woo!
Just like the old cow whose throat was stabbed hard and made several howls before he died, the engine of the off-road vehicle stalled, and all the sounds were erased at once. Only two snow-white beams of light stubbornly shot straight ahead, but it seemed more and more lonely.
One thing you must admit is that apart from good performance and pleasant appearance, the safety factor is absolutely the most important reason why a good car is expensive.
After the broken kite fell to the ground, it only caused a brief coma to the two people. Laura woke up a few minutes later.
After waking up, Laura finally realized how stupid her crazy behavior was.
Certainly, this is not the time for self-criticism.
Laura struggled to unfasten her seat belt, pushed open the door and got out of the car.
It was cold outside and the wind was biting. All at once, Laura woke up completely. She couldn't care about anything else and hurried to the other door.
Fortunately, the door is not deformed and can be opened easily.
"President Xia, President Xia!"
Laura, whose forehead hit the windshield and made a blood cut, hissed Xia Xiaoyun.
"What, what's the matter?"
When Laura untied Xia Xiaoyun's seat belt, she also woke up.
Compared with Laura, Xia Xiaoyun was unharmed, but she was in a coma for a few minutes.
This is because when Laura lost her mind and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, Xia Xiaoyun instinctively took self-protection measures as much as possible after feeling extreme fear, and grabbed the handle to avoid the bad luck of hitting her head there.
"The car overturned. Are you okay?"
After seeing Xia Xiaoyun wake up, Laura was ecstatic and quickly pulled her out of the car.
Similarly, after being blown by the cold wind, Xia Xiaoyun also woke up completely, and then thought of the dangerous scene just now.
She didn't blame Laura for her irrationality, because if she drove, the result might be worse.
