Chapter 183: The Secret of Human-like Survival(1/2)
Scoop said, this lake eats people!
I said, "Tell me, where is the big thing now?"
Scoop said: "I was taken away by the lake!"
I said, "What does it mean to be captured by the lake!"
Scoop said: "Just just now, he went to the toilet with me, and I saw the water in the lake churning like a pot. I didn't care much. When we walked to the lake, the water suddenly crawled over, and the speed was very fast! I ran away and the big thing reacted a little slower. When I looked back at him, he had been wrapped in the water and dragged it into the lake!..."
I said, "Are you sure he was pulled down by the water, not some monster in the water?"
The spoon said, "It's water! It pulls the big thing and retreats in a blink of an eye. It's very powerful. After I saw the big thing being pulled down, I grabbed the artemisia on both sides. Look how thick and hard the artemisia is, even the roots are pulled up, and it can't help it!"
I said, "You mean, the water suddenly rose?"
The spoon said: "It's not rising! It's climbing! If it's rising, the water along the coast will flood. Just now, there was only a piece of water, which stretched over like tentacles to catch people..."
I said, "Tennis? The Tentacles of Monsters?"
The spoon said, "Why can't I tell you clearly? I'm just giving an example! The tentacles are water!"
I seem to understand.
He is the cousin of the big guy, and he cannot harm the big guy.
Even if they are fraudsters and carry a lot of cash, they cannot harm big things in order to share the spoils by one person. It can be seen that big things are just drivers, and they only need to give him some labor fees, and there is no need to kill people.
Just now, the water outside was indeed abnormal.
I suddenly thought that Ji Feng had said that she had seen the lake crawl to the tent.
Water can kill people.
This lake that crosses the earth is actually the biggest trap!
Midou, Baisha, and Weiwei felt something was wrong and walked out of the tent. Juice also fumbled out.
I walked over with Scoop, and Scoop talked about the big things being swallowed by the lake.
Then, everyone looked at me.
I said, "We packed our tents and retreated 100 meters."
Spoon said, "Why not leave this ghost place?"
I said, "Where are you going?"
Scoop said, "Go to the tomb directly."
I said, "They didn't take us in last time. At that time, we still had a shield, that was, they didn't dare to kill us. Now we don't even have shields. If we go, we may be dying."
"Then we shouldn't stay in this ghost place, it's too dangerous," said Scoop.
I said, "Our rescue should be still there. They are our only hope. We cannot be too far away from them. In addition, I don't know what has pulled away the big thing and is dark, so you shouldn't be so sure. When this lake is normal, it is very important to provide us with water. For a long time, we have been drinking the water from the lake."
Weiwei said: "Listen to Mr. Zhou, there are salt crusts everywhere, and we don't have a better place to go."
Everyone stopped talking and started packing up and moving to the camp.
More than an hour later, we re-set the tent 100 meters away, still three roofs. We dug a simple sand pit in the southwest direction, and as a toilet, there was a engineer shovel next to it for burial. We parked the two cars side by side in the northeast direction of the tent.
I piled up a few stones at the rescuers' tent location.
It was already early morning when I got into the tent again.
Liu Jinger said: "Lop Nur is finally revealed, and I feel that it will no longer cover it..."
I said, "That's better. I've long wanted to see its true colors."
Liu Jinger said, "Now do you believe my ears? I really heard it, and a voice was shouting - 'Start free movement now'!"
I said, "I kind of believe it."
Liu Jinger said: "Do you remember? Once the kid crawled out and played with us. Later, a ringtone suddenly rang, and he quickly returned to the lake. Now he said he would start free activities..."
I said, "What's wrong?"
Liu Jinger said: "It seems that someone controls this lake and controls those children!"
I said, "There is another reason why I won't leave."
Liu Xueer said, "What's the reason?"
I said, "I need those crying flowers."
Liu Jinger said: "You can't go anymore. What if the lake water really kills people, what should I do if I drag you down?"
I said, "Even if the big thing is really eaten by the lake water, it is still heavy at night, and the yin energy is strong. And the yang energy is strong in the early morning, so there will be no problem."
Liu Jinger said: "I only regard your treatment as a spiritual sustenance. I know it cannot be useful, so don't take risks."
I said, "No, I believe a miracle will surely happen."
I never thought that before dawn, the monsoon was back!
At that time, Liu Yuer and I were about to lie down when a voice suddenly came from outside the tent: "Can I come in?"
Juice suddenly shouted: "It's the monsoon!"
That's right, it's Monsoon. She was wearing a beige half-blown windbreaker and carrying a shriveled backpack. She looked haggard and dusty.
My nose felt sour: "Monsoon...why are you back?"
She didn't answer me, walked to the juice and hugged her.
Liu Jinger cried and said, "Monday, my eyes can't see!"
Ji Feng picked up her face and looked at it, then patted her shoulder gently, and said, "It is only if you can't see it, you won't cry."
Then, Ji Feng turned his face to me and asked, "Why don't you leave?"
I said, "I can't leave."
Monsoon frowned: "Why?"
I said, "The navigation device is paralyzed again."
Liu Jinger said: "Monday, have you found Linghu Mountain?"
Monsoon said: "Finished."
Liu Xueer said, "He doesn't want you?"
Monsoon touched Juye's hair and didn't say anything.
I said, "How do you know we're still here?"
Ji Feng said: "I know from them that they almost control your every move. I came back to tell you that he is coming to kill you..."
I said, "I've thought of it."
"I shouldn't have told him that the demon has disappeared, and now he has no scruples."
I said, "I will talk to him."
Ji Feng shook his head and said, "It's useless. He can't let anyone leave Lop Nur. This time I realized that Linghu Mountain is very cruel and not what we imagined."
Liu Xueer said, "Then... will you go back?"
"It's impossible, everyone will die together."
I said, "When will they come?"
"I don't know. I don't think they are in a hurry, we are all in his cage."
After stopping, Monsoon said again: "This time, I solved a big mystery. Do you know what humanoids usually eat and drink?"
I stared at her and shook my head.
Monsoon said: "There is a river underground in Lop Nur."
One sentence made me suddenly realize!
I always thought that humanoids lived like rats in underground tombs, and like rats, constantly transporting food and water back from the outside world. I was wrong, they were self-sufficient!
Speaking of the Dark River, we need to mention people’s speculations two thousand years ago.
In the pre-Qin period, Lop Nur was named "Lize". In the "Shan Hai Jing" of the pre-Qin period, there were many records of Lop Nur, saying: "The mountain of Buzhou... Looking east at Luoze, the reason why the river water dim." Buzhou Mountain is Kunlun Mountain, and the river water is the Yellow River. Standing on Kunlun Mountain, you can see Lop Nur to the east. At that time, people believed that Lop Nur and the Yellow River were the same water system, and Lop Nur was the source of the Yellow River.
In "Records of the Grand Historian: Biography of Dayuan", Lop Nur is called "Saltze".
In the Book of Han, Lop Nur is called "Pu Changhai". The Book of Han: Biography of Xicheng" reads: "Pu Changhai, a salt lake, went to Yumen, Yangguan for more than 300 miles, and the vastness is more than 300 miles. Its water pavilion does not increase or decrease in winter and summer. They all think that they sneak underground, and they come from the accumulated stones in the south, making it a Chinese river cloud."
Here, it is not only said that Lop Nur is the same water system as the Yellow River, but also that the Lop Nur water penetrated underground and emerged from Jishi Mountain in southwest Gansu, becoming the Yellow River.
Later, the Tarim River broke down, which seemed to deny this statement. However, it was too early to assert that the Tarim River had no connection with the Yellow River.
"Story underground" is of course the underground river.
Although the Tarim Basin is the driest area on China's surface, geologists have discovered "underground reservoirs" with a capacity of comparable to the Three Gorges in northern Tarim Basin and Lop Nur.
In addition, oil exploration personnel have also discovered the underground river in Lop Nur. Some people even suggested that the altitude of Lop Nur is lower than sea level. If an underground river between Lop Nur and the sea is found and connected, it can lead the sea water to Lop Nur...
On the surface of Lop Nur, no one even knew the existence of human beings.
