We chased back the camels. Since it was dark, the camels were lying motionless in the sand, so it was easy to find them. That night we pitched a tent and stayed near Gaochangguo. We were absolutely not allowed to rush at night, so we arranged for two people to take turns keeping watch, but we were fine that night.

As soon as it dawned the next day, we set off with the camels. Since Dorgil followed us and kept a distance, we almost entered the desert in two groups. One was to facilitate the retreat, and the other was to For material needs.

However, as we advanced along the northern section of the Silk Road, the number of people on the road became increasingly sparse and even began to retreat. We don’t know why, but we guess it may be due to the violent wind and sand, especially in the seasons of July and August. At this time, due to the huge temperature difference between day and night, especially at dusk, sandstorms are likely to occur.

So those tourists began to retreat.

Only a few of us continued to move forward. Those people looked at us curiously and talked about it along the way, but we didn't know what was going on.

Until Dorgil's teammate in charge of the investigation told us that something happened ahead.

The middle road of the northern section of the Silk Road is blocked and no one is allowed to enter. It is classified as a forbidden area. The northern section is almost in most of the XJ Desert, close to the Tianshan Mountains. Due to the huge range, it is easy to lose your way, but now the route is completely blocked. What it means is that no one is allowed to enter, and now it's almost an expedited ban.

What happened?

Could it be that the sandstorm weather came earlier this year? We didn't find any particularly bad weather along the way. I secretly felt that this matter was not that simple.

And now we are in a very embarrassing situation.

With no way to advance or retreat, we can only stay nearby and wait for news from Dorgil before making next plans. If we rush in because of the sandstorm, we may never return.

"Brother, I always have a weird feeling. We won't be in trouble this time!"

Li Dakui asked me while setting up the tent, "I have never felt this way before, even the first time we went to your mountain, I didn't have that strong feeling."

"Stop imagining things."

I comforted.

Rather than comforting myself now, it is better to comfort myself. Now we are completely like grasshoppers on a rope. We have all stepped onto this boat and there is no way back.

But now, there has been no breakthrough in the whereabouts of my grandfather, and even my parents are missing. I suddenly feel that I have nothing after graduation.

I have lost my family, I have lost my villagers, and now I am afraid of losing this good brother in front of me again.

I comforted him and said, brother, it's okay. Even if something happens, I will let you escape first even if I hold the monster's legs.

Dakui seemed very moved and said that with my words, even death would be worth it.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

In the middle of the night, I always felt that there was a very strange sound ringing in my ears. Although there was a bonfire around, it still seemed very small in the darkness, which did not put our hearts at ease.

"Hoo ho!"

There seemed to be wind and sand in the distance. Although there was not much wind, the sand blown up made it almost difficult for us to keep our eyes open. At this time, it was my turn to be on duty. Dakui said that he would chat with me if he couldn't sleep now.

I asked him, if you come out like this, isn't your father worried about you?

I know that Dakui grew up in a single-parent family, so he has become very strong. His father is a driver and rarely spends time with him. Dakui chuckled and said that the old man could still take care of himself even if he didn't care about himself. He said that as long as I didn't make an appointment, I would go out and do the trouble.

"Lin Yu, that's right, I feel like there is someone."

Li Dakui was obviously a little panicked at this time and stared around.

"Did you see it wrong?" I saw that the wind and sand around me had stopped. It was pitch black all around and I couldn't see anything. How could this kid have such an intuition?

"Right there!"

Suddenly, Dakui ran towards the sand dune not far away as if he was crazy.

"What are you doing? It's dangerous."

I picked up a lit stick and chased after him.

Dakui dug at the small pile of sand dunes like crazy, and then murmured to himself, "I just saw... something down here."

I thought Dakui was possessed by evil spirits, but a few minutes later he actually dug something out of the sand dune.

That's an eye.

As thick as the bottom of a wine bottle.

"Someone."

Dakui dug hard, but found nothing.

"It's him!"

When I saw those glasses, I couldn't be more familiar with them. They were the people who entered the Western Archaeological Project with us, nicknamed Glasses. Didn't he stay at the archaeological base? Why... I simply told Dakui that I was there at the time. Dakui was stunned for a moment after hearing what happened in the camp, with cold sweat breaking out on his face.

"He...will nothing happen?"

Da Kui stared at me.
