Chapter Thirty-Seven: We Guess Where That Kid Lives(2/2)
She opened the makeup mirror on her head and looked at it, and immediately shouted: "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
I said, "A child is beautiful and cute, and his face is full of tears."
She said, "Don't fool me! Where are the wet tissues?"
I said, "It's hard to wipe off so much sand, just wash it with water."
She said: "Waste!"
I said, "It's okay, use my water, I'll just drink less today."
She said: "Use your water is mine, and using my water is your water! There is no team awareness."
After saying that, she found a wet tissue and carefully wiped it in front of the mirror.
The desert was still empty, and the car was swaying heavily on the salt shells in the shape of waves. No marks were seen.
When driving in such an environment, your eyes can't help but look at the horizon. There may be two reasons. First, the sky is monotonous and the desert is monotonous. You will be tired after watching it for a long time. The horizon is the only place where your eyes can rest. Second, the subconscious mind has always hoped for miracles, such as people, such as buildings.
I had read a lot of information about Lop Nur before I set out, and I began to recall the characteristics of ancient tombs in the Western Regions.
I probably remember that there were many dead wooden stakes standing in the desert in a row.
Looking around, it was bare.
All signs show that the child cannot be alone, maybe there are many of them, men, women, young and old…
When did they enter Lop Nur?
Why did the scientific expeditioners never find them?
Is Peng Jiamu's disappearance related to them?
If they are humans lost in Lop Nur, then, when they meet a convoy of crossing, why not ask for help and then escape from this place?
Are they obsessed with this place?
Are they isolated natives?
This place is a barren land, and birds dare not travel through time, and mice are extinct. Even if they live in the ancient tomb, what should they eat and drink?
There may be gold, silver, treasures and precious cultural relics in the ancient tomb, but those things cannot be eaten or drunk, and they are useless in this desert.
Are they... humans?
Not humans, what are they?
My head hurts so much that I think.
However, since this child appeared, although it was very strange, I was not so desperate.
Regardless of whether he is a human being or not, at least he is a life, I want to see life, even if he is hostile to human beings and just wants to kill us. It is a matter of struggle.
What I fear most is that this place has nothing but salt shells. Like Yu Chunshun, we are lost, and then starve to death, thirst to death, sun to death, or buried in sandstorms.
Look at the navigation device, the screen is still black.
The sun rose and the car became hotter.
If we can't get out, the weather will get hotter and hotter. When the temperature reaches 71℃, we will all turn into jerky.
I regret it very much that I should choose to travel through the autumn...
Liu Xueer suddenly said, "What is that?"
I said, "Where?"
She widened her eyes and pointed to the front left.
