Chapter 4 Where are you in the third quarter

While Ling Ning was carefully treating the wound on Chu Feng's body, somewhere in the saline-alkali desert of Lop Nur about 200 kilometers away from here, under the direct sunlight, a black shadow appeared in embarrassment. There is no shelter here, and the breath of life is less than the largest desert in the world-the Sahara Desert.Originally, this was fine, but for some reason, perhaps due to the influence of the magnetic bias phenomenon, the shadow, who was accustomed to living in the dark, lost his greatest support, and could only exert three points of his extraordinary strength. At this time, the erratic black shadow was carefully searching for the place where the flood had erupted. The shadow was very thin. A gust of wind blew by, and the yellow sand rose up. The shadow swayed weakly in the wind, and it seemed that it might disappear at any time.

Despite the interference of the unique black storm here, the traces of the flood that day have disappeared.But there is a good saying: Everything that exists will leave traces, the key is whether you can find it or not.Sombra had been searching for several days, and found almost nothing, but the long-term harsh training made him face the current situation calmly.His eyes are like eagles, not letting go of any clues. This black shadow is very good at finding traces. The extreme lack of water has already caused his lips to crack deeply, but he accurately found the place where Chu Feng had an accident that day.

Soon, there was an extra fiber in his hand, which was a fiber of cotton cloth.Seeing this, his eyes lit up.Although his strength is suppressed here, he is still very confident in completing the task. After careful searching, he found some clues. He felt relieved and raised his eyes. He seemed to see the smiling faces of Chu Feng and others 200 kilometers away. Compared with Sombra's self-confidence, Qi Zhiguo, the commander-in-chief of Qiemo County's "6.6" Incident Rescue Operation Headquarters, who was hundreds of kilometers away, was much more nervous. At this time, Qi Zhiguo is rapidly deploying the fourth wave of carpet search operations.From that day to the present, he hadn't closed his eyes yet, and his eyes were already flushed.

Head Qi, who has been in this place for nearly 20 years, is well aware of the horror here.The Lop Nur area, like Kunlun's uninhabited land and the Bermuda Triangle, has a strange magnetic bias phenomenon. The so-called magnetic bias means that you follow the compass and go straight to the due east, but this is your illusion. In fact, you have deviated from the due east by an angle ranging from 10 degrees to 20 degrees, so you enter it It is extremely easy for people to get lost.In this way, the compass not only fails to help people identify the direction, but becomes an accomplice to getting lost.The most depressing thing is that the GPS positioning system is not working here.

It's already the fifth day, God bless you, Xiaofeng, don't let anything happen to you!Although head Qi saw Chu Feng and Ling Ning being swept away by the flood that day, he still prayed for a miracle in his heart. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of what happened when he ran all the way that day.At that time, after Chu Feng was swept away by the flood, the first reaction of all of them was to rescue others, but the flood was so strong that he and Sangbu had to let everyone get in the car and retreat. On the way of fleeing, a dim light appeared in front of them, and the people in the three cars saw it, and it seemed that it was not far ahead.The three drivers all stepped on the accelerator and rushed there, but they just couldn't get there.After a long time, everyone felt very mysterious, and William made the sign of the cross on the back seat of the car.After 5 hours of hard work, they finally arrived at the place where the lights were. When they got there, they found several farm houses.

And just when they saw the house, the sky suddenly brightened, as if they had suddenly turned from night to day, and the faint sound of water behind them suddenly disappeared. The anxious Da Qi didn't have time to be amazed by these unreasonable things, so he hurriedly knocked on the door of a family.Only after asking this question did they find out that they were in a panic and fled nearly 500 kilometers southwest to the outskirts of Qiemo County. Da Qi didn't have time to think about anything at the time, and quickly contacted the leaders of the base and the people in the Shanshan headquarters. Both sides were shocked when they heard the news.Through their own influence, they tried their best to find the missing Chu Feng and Ling Ning.

Ling Ning and Chu Feng didn't know the situation outside, and Chu Feng was seriously injured and needed to recuperate, so they stayed here with peace of mind. On this day, Ling Ning was habitually helping Chu Feng with good medicine. When he went out, he ran into the old man Rob Oldeke who came in with a large bowl of delicious and rich bone soup.The old man didn't say much, put down the bowl, ordered Chu Feng to eat more, and left again. As soon as the bowl of bone soup came in, Chu Feng didn't have the time to pay attention to other things. His stomach was already growling. Since he woke up, he only ate two meals of yellow porridge.It's not that they won't eat it, it's because he's afraid that his body, which has just come out of a coma, won't be able to bear it.Now maybe he felt that his body could bear it, and finally he was served meat for dinner.When the old man left, Chu Feng couldn't care less about his image, so he stretched out his hand and started eating.

It is said to be bone soup, but it is actually made of tender lamb meat stewed over high heat.Anyone who has eaten Xinjiang stewed mutton knows that the taste is really unique.It should be said that the Rob people originally ate fish and seldom ate mutton, but they were gradually assimilated by the Uyghurs. Not only did their beliefs change, but their eating habits also changed dramatically. In short, this bowl of bone soup is really authentic.The mutton was fresh, smooth, thin, and tender, and it melted in the mouth. It didn't have the fishy smell that was difficult to remove from ordinary mutton. It was so delicious that Chu Feng almost swallowed his own tongue.

Soon, the big bowl of soup and meat went into Chu Feng's stomach. It has to be said that the wound medicine of the Rob people is really unique.Many wounds on Chu Feng's body were quite serious, and he didn't expect that most of them healed in a few days. Finally, Chu Feng, who regained some strength, supported the wooden pillars around the bed, and walked from the bed to the door of the wooden house step by step. As soon as he reached the door, Chu Feng was as if he had been petrified.Although I have been mentally prepared for a long time, I know that the Populus euphratica tree I am in, since I can build such a big tree house on its branches, it must not be small, maybe it is a thousand-year-old Populus euphratica.And the place where Populus euphratica is still growing for a thousand years must be an unusual place with abundant water and grass, but all this far exceeded his prediction.

Less than two meters away from the tree house, there is a big lake that cannot be seen at a glance.Flocks of white birds were circling in the sky, and from time to time, these birds made clear and clear calls like seagulls.Chu Feng was no stranger to this call, and since he woke up, he could often hear their calls. There are stretches of reeds growing by the lake, swaying in the breeze.It was almost dusk at this time, and countless wild ducks folded their wings and stayed quietly on the water near the shore of the lake, floating and sinking with the waves, leisurely and comfortable. On the left and right of the tree house, not far away, there are more than a dozen houses made of reeds. The houses are low and simple, and there is an unstoppable blue color coming out.Generally speaking, if it is a tourist area, it should not take long to build the house, but why does it give people a simple and deep feeling?Especially at this time there are still a few wisps of mist floating in the village, making the whole village unreal.

This is definitely not the tourist attraction in Yuli. Although the houses there are antique, they are very solid, and the "ancient" flavor can be seen as being made.Unlike here, it seems to have an inherent heaviness! What the hell is this place? Before Chu Feng came back to his senses, two Kapans emerged from the reeds on the left and right under the control of two skilled Rob boatmen.Seeing that Kapen was about to approach the shore, ten or twenty people appeared from nowhere on the empty shore. After the boat stopped, everyone stepped forward to help fix it.It seems that this time has gained a lot, the boatman on the ship shouted excitedly, and every time he shouted, the crowd on the shore burst into cheers! The boatmen on the two "kapen" did not keep the people on the shore waiting long, and each picked up a big fish more than one meter long from their own boats. Warriors usually held it high above their heads to show off to the public. As soon as the fish was taken out, the atmosphere on the bank skyrocketed, everyone cheered, roared, and jumped.The pair who disembarked from the boat were treated like heroes. However, it was obvious that these two big fish were not the only ones harvested by the two Kapens. After the people on the boat got off, several people jumped into the canoe and took out dozens of other large and small fish. Chu Feng looked at the people on the bank with a strange expression and roared away around the two "heroes".As soon as he looked back, he saw a person smiling at him at his feet. When you say your feet, you mean your real feet.This Populus euphratica is not a tree with a tall trunk. Its crown can be very tall and wide, but its trunk is not high.The tree house was only about two meters above the ground, so Xu Wen, who was less than 1.80 meters tall, was standing at Chu Feng's feet.If you look at it from another angle, people might think that Chu Feng is stepping on someone's head. Chu Feng hurriedly backed away. Xu Wen was not too polite, he climbed up to the tree house in twos and twos, and sat down on the only tree stump bench. "Mr. Chu's body is recovering very quickly, it seems that the original body is in good shape!" Xu Wen was at a loss for words. Chu Feng smiled slightly, but did not answer, but after a few seconds of silence, he suddenly went straight to the topic: "Mr. Xu, thank you for saving me and my companion. Now we are in the same situation, redundant nonsense Let’s not talk about it, did you notice something was wrong?” Xu Wen didn't expect him to be so direct, he was stunned, and quickly replied with a wry smile: "Mr. Chu is really quick to talk, yes, we have been here for a long time, and you are fine, they should have taken us away earlier. Go back, but there is no movement so far." "What do you mean by them?" "The two Uighur camel workers I hired, their fourteen-humped camels and my old Luobu guide. We originally agreed to start from Arkan in Ruoqiang County, go to the ancient city of Loulan, and then return to Argan. It will take a total of three days. Now we have spent so many days just here. Although there are reasons why you need help, I always feel that the people here are suspected of leaving us on purpose." Xu Wen is not an idiot, he can have A company with a large scale proves that his observation and mind are outstanding. After hearing this, Chu Feng pondered for a moment before opening his mouth: "I'm sorry, because of me and my companions, you have delayed your trip..." Originally, Chu Feng's next sentence was to say that he could compensate the other party's loss after returning to the city , but when he raised his eyes and saw the sneer at the corner of the other party's mouth, he swallowed the words again.He knew that this person might be worth a lot of money, so he couldn't say this, it would make people look down on him. Thinking of this, Chu Feng immediately changed the topic: "I don't know if Brother Xu has found out where this place is located?" "Because of the language barrier, I haven't found out where this place is. I only know that it is a Luobu village. It seems that it is not too far from Ruoqiang County, because when we found the old Luobu guide in Ruoqiang County, beside him There is also a daughter accompanying us. His daughter was not with us when we set off from Argan, but today, his daughter is also here. It is said that they will hold a wedding tomorrow, and the old man's daughter is the bride!" Although Xu Wen I don't know the exact location of this place, but judging from the itinerary and the foot strength of the old man's daughter, this place should be in the desert not far from Ruoqiang County, and it is likely to be a lake somewhere in the lower reaches of the Tarim River. "This is impossible!" Chu Feng denied his deduction, "How could such a big lake appear in the lower reaches of the Ta River? I thought this was the shore of Bosten Lake. In the Taklamakan Desert, only this The lake with the title of my country's largest inland freshwater lake can have the momentum in front of us." "Actually, this lake is not as big as you think. Only the lake surface is flat and the water is deeper in the direction you are facing. As long as you walk out of this tree house, you can see it. One kilometer on both sides and three kilometers away from the opposite side are almost all tidal flats. There are also some small lakes or small ponds dotted here and there. I went fishing with them. It was a magical experience. The fish would jump up by themselves for you to catch. What do they call these? Oh, right! It's called Haizi!"
