When they first set off, everyone felt that the desert was nothing much.
Along the way, he could see poplar trees and shrubs. He could even see water sources in some of the river beds that had not dried up.
The wind blowing from the direction of Bosten Lake was even a little cool.
Not only did they not care, they even started singing.
Fatty stared at them and said to Zhang Ruitong,"Lord Zhang, did we bring a bunch of idiots to the desert this time?”
"It's obvious that these people are used to staying at home and are here to experience life.”
Zhang Ruitong also noticed this problem.
When they first set off, they had prepared enough supplies, so they were not worried about running out of supplies.
However, Zhang Ruitong knew that water was consumed the fastest in the desert.
During lunch, he gathered everyone and reminded them,""I see that you don't seem to have a clear understanding of the danger we are about to face!”
Seeing him speak, Xue Li Yang couldn't help but say,""Actually, we haven't reached the real desert yet.
If everyone is still in this state after crossing the Peacock River, we will probably all die in the desert!”
This was not an alarmist statement. Natural disasters in the desert were a disaster. Other than that, there were also cases of quicksand, lack of water, exposure to the scorching sun, and the inability of one's physical fitness to withstand the heat and die on the way. There were countless cases.
After hearing their words, Ye Yixin said in embarrassment,""Big Brother Zhang, Miss Yang, we have no experience in the desert, so we really lack some respect!”
After being deeply educated, other than Ye Yixin, the others also seriously reflected on their actions.
An Liman walked over and said,"This little brother is really knowledgeable."
After crossing the river, the Black Desert would be in front of them. By then, people would really die!”
The people he had brought earlier had already thought of retreating before they even finished crossing the Peacock River.
Seeing that the archeological team had no intention of retreating, if they continued walking, they would probably have to risk their lives to earn money when they reached the Black Desert.
"It's dangerous to sacrifice yourself for science," Hao Aiguo said firmly.
Teacher had prepared for the Ancient City of Jingjue for his entire life!”
Ye Yixin and the others were deeply moved by Professor Chen's state.
Realizing that these people were not persuaded, An Liman's face was filled with helplessness. It was probably impossible to make them turn back.
Zhang Ruitong glanced at the map and said,"Our next stop is West Night Ancient City.”
Xue Li Yang stared at the map and said,"This ancient city is in the Black Desert. I'm afraid it won't be easy to find it!"”
He drew a circle around the West Night Ancient City.
He made a mark beside it.
Seeing this symbol, Shirley Yang paid special attention to it.
"Is there anything special about this West Night Ancient City?”
"The location of the West Night Ancient City is considered deep into the Black Desert!”
Xue Li Yang nodded her head in understanding.
The speed of this journey was still considered fast. What he was uncertain about was whether it would still be the same as before, arriving tomorrow morning.
There were dilapidated buildings in the ancient city that could be used to avoid the sandstorm.
Those buildings were buried deep under the sand. If it wasn't for the windy season, none of them would be exposed.
Even An Liman probably didn't know about this.
After a short rest, they continued their journey.
They walked all the way until it was dark, and they finally approached the edge of the Peacock River.
They set up a tent and rested for the night. The night sky was bright, and there was nothing unusual about the weather.
......
The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone on the sand. Zhang Ruitong was already standing by the tent and looking at the horizon.
"This day…So beautiful!" Fatty pointed at the horizon and took out his camera, ready to take pictures.
The sky was covered in a blood-red glow.
An Liman looked at the horizon and his face suddenly darkened.
" Old Master," Hu Bayi asked," the morning glow doesn't go out, but the evening glow travels thousands of miles. I'm afraid such a red morning glow isn't a good sign, right?"”
An Liman's dry mouth trembled slightly." Yes, the heavens are angry!”
"Hey, we have to leave this place quickly. The wind is about to blow!”
Seeing the blood-red clouds in the sky, the old man had an ominous feeling.
Zhang Ruitong picked up his bag and patted Hu Bayi's shoulder." Old Hu, go wake the others up. The black sandstorm is coming!"”
The scene before his eyes was exactly the same as what he understood.
Hu Ba immediately ran to the other tents.
Zhang Ruitong found An Liman." Old Master An Liman!”
The old man hurriedly turned around and quickly climbed onto the camel." The sandstorm is coming soon. Tell them to leave quickly. Otherwise, when the sandstorm comes, we'll all be buried in the sand!”
Zhang Ruitong's camel walked alongside the old man." Old man, as long as we head in the direction of West Night Ancient City, I know a place where we can take refuge!”
"What? West Night Ancient City?"
"There is indeed an ancient city wall there. I hope God will give me a chance to live!" An Liman thought for a moment and said.”
The old man led the way, and the others followed closely on their camels.
With Zhang Ruitong's guidance, they walked in an orderly manner along the way. Their speed was much faster than expected.
"Is there someone missing in the team?" Hu Bayi suddenly ran over and asked.”
"It's Professor Chen. Go and find him. We'll wait for you in front.”
Zhang Ruitong pointed at a dilapidated city wall not far away.
The surrounding wind grew stronger and stronger, and the surroundings became gray.
