In the vast Gobi, several cars stopped under a sand dune, constantly emitting smoke. The hot sun and the lack of water source caused problems in the car's heat dissipation system.
People, once bad luck comes, bad things come one after another. The archaeological team was still good. It hasn't been a problem for half a month, but no one has considered that the cooling water consumption of the three cars in the desert is fast. It doesn't take long to add water. Now it can support behind the sand dune, but Chen Bojian barely drove here after collecting people's urine. If there is no accident, The car can't move.
"Xiao Kan's temperature is wrong." Professor Qiu touched Xiao Kan's forehead and intuitively felt that her head was cold. Normal people must be sweating and hot in such a place. Obviously, Xiao Kan's situation was very bad at this time.
There are also some people in the team who continue to feel unwell, which makes the archaeological team, which is already short of materials, even worse.
Chen Bojian reluctantly said, "Professor Qiu, Lixuan and I go to the surrounding area to see if there is anyone, even if there is a local, and look for the water source by the way."
"You go. I'll take care of them and remember to bring enough water. Although I don't know where we are now, according to the route, it should be the deepest part of Lop Nur. This is one of the four no man's land in China. You still need to be careful."
"OK, Professor Qiu, don't save electricity. Turn on the air conditioner. I don't think Xiao Kan is doing very well." Chen Bojian frowned at Xiao Kan. Although he is not a professional doctor, as a security guard, his eyesight and experience can judge the serious form of Xiao Kan.
"I see. You go and return early. It doesn't matter if you can't find someone. The most important thing is to find water." Professor Qiu has no choice but to rely on two security personnel.
Chen Bojian is a dog. It's true that he is a security guard, but there are always few Chinese explorers. Generally, he goes to no man's land or takes some donkey friends to some primitive forests. This is the first time to enter the desert.
After thinking about it, Chen Bojian said, "Professor Qiu, we want to take Siqi with us."
Professor Qiu was stunned. Dongli Siqi was specialized in geology in the archaeological team. It seemed that the two security personnel were not full of confidence, which made his face sink. The form was not very optimistic.
"Well, remember to go out and protect her. There are fewer and fewer female students studying geology."
"Don't worry."
The small archaeological team usually has only 9 to 11 people. This time, it was only to test archaeology around Lop Nur. It was heard that someone had seen the trace of tomb robbers here, so the archaeological team came. I hope there will not be too much damage to the tomb, so that at least salvage excavation can be carried out.
The leader of this archaeological team is Professor Qiu Ze, who is only in his 40s and has an unlimited future.
Geologist: Du Hongyuan [40 male] Dongli Siqi [29 female]
Archaeologist: Jiang Bingbing [45 male] Xue yinghuai [28 female] Tang Kailang [38 male]
Logistics personnel: Kan Xinyue [female 28]
Security personnel: Chen Bojian [32] Feng Lixuan [30]
According to the truth, geologist Du Hongyuan should go. After all, he has enough experience there at his age. Unfortunately, Du Hongyuan is only 40 but weak. With such a toss, it's good to be able to walk.
Helpless, she planned to let Siqi go. Although she was young, she was in good health.
With Siqi's consent, the three took their bags and walked in one direction during her observation. The scorching sun scorched the earth like a fire, pulling their shadows long.
The three walked in the desert. Every few kilometers, Siqi would check what was nearby. After opening the sand, she would see if there were stones and different places.
Although Lop Nur is a no man's land, it is not a Jedi after all. A large number of underground rivers are hidden under the endless sand sea. Siqi is trying to find them. As long as she finds a route of an underground river, she can get water.
The food is still enough for the time being, and there is still some gasoline, that is, people drink less water, and they have to add water to the car. Once the car can't move or the engine doesn't cool down in time, even if there is more water, the party can't get out of Lop Nur alive.
"I lost a lot this time, so I found a tomb, still deep in Lop Nur."
Siqi took a few stones and said casually, "there's no way. There's no way to stop many accidents in field work."
"But the tomb is too strange. There is a red silk thread swinging on the coffin. To tell the truth, I can't help but want to pull it out."
Siqi was shocked and immediately warned, "don't touch anything you don't know in the tomb. Many of them are mechanism traps. If you don't be careful, all of us have to be buried together. We have written down the address and find someone to study together after we go out."
"I don't know if I can go out." I make complaints about Li Xuan.
The instant atmosphere was heavy. In fact, so far, everyone dared not think about this problem. Everyone was only 28 years old, and the largest was not more than 50. Everyone had a good youth and a good future. If he really died here, it was estimated that there would be no one to collect the body.
"Ha ha ha ~ ~ ~" suddenly Siqi laughed a few times and dug madly into the sand with her hands.
"What's the matter?" Lixuan asked immediately.
After digging a few times, Siqi pointed to the big pit just dug by herself and said with a smile, "what are you looking at?"
"Sand."
............
"Can't you see the difference?"
Chen Bojian squatted down, pinched the sand under the bunker and frowned, "it seems a little wet."
"Yes, it's wet. There should be an ancient river here. It's just buried under the sand. As long as we have the right direction, we can always find water. Now everyone will be safe." After Siqi finished, she took out a folding engineer shovel from her backpack and dug the surrounding sand into a circle centered on the sand pit. After careful identification, she found that there was a place where the sand was very wet.
"The sand here is wet. Go there." Siqi pointed to the wettest part of the sand and the three walked towards that side.
In other words, once people have hope, they can always break out beyond the usual limit. After walking more than ten kilometers, Siqi looked into the distance and saw a depression surrounded by several trees. If he guessed correctly, there was a water source.
Seeing hope, the three ran frantically towards the goal.
From a distance, the three people saw many lush trees and light blue water rippling in the sun.
"Hahaha, let's not say anything else. I'll take a bath first."
"I want to wash it, too."
"After you two have washed, stay by. Don't peek..." As Siqi ran, she said in ecstasy.
The two big men looked at each other and smiled. They were talking, not to mention women. Even if the big men didn't like it for more than a week, they couldn't stand it.
