The first time I saw Long Wu was on the road that runs through the Taklamakan Desert. I saw a young man with white hair. He was the strange man who could cross the entire desert as Mo Lan said. He was in his thirties, spoke little, looked very indifferent, and seemed to have taken everything lightly.

Our car was stopped when it drove to the desert highway.

Mo Lan saw Long Wu at a glance.

"We are investigators."

Long Wu frowned slightly when he saw Mo Lan, and then said something to the investigators before letting us pass.

"Is it you? You shouldn't have come to this place."

Long Wu sighed slightly. At that time, he was checking the body. It seemed to be a burned mummy, but a closer look showed that it was not burned. From the complete clothes, it can be analyzed that this person should have died of thirst in the desert. There were no scars on his body, and it was obviously dehydrated.

Today, the investigation department found this body on the side of the road. It is initially estimated that it is a person who was lost in the desert and has nothing to do with the archaeological team.

"We want to go into the desert."

Mo Lan said straight to the point, "I hope you can help me."

"I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Long Wu looked at me and Li Da Kui at this time. I saw a trace of doubt in his eyes, but it disappeared immediately.

"Don't worry about this. We are all ready. As long as you don't interfere too much, it will be fine." Mo Lan said, "Besides, we may be able to help the archaeological team you are looking for."

"I hope so."

Long Wu replied coldly.

"Let them go."

Long Wu greeted the investigators and then let them go.

Before leaving, he stared at me for a long time, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything until we disappeared on the side of the road.

"Does he know you?"

Li Da Kui also saw it.

"This is the first time I met him."

I shook my head.

"I don't think he has a crush on you." Li Da Kui laughed so hard that he fell forward and backward.

"We don't have time now, and we still have the mind to joke." Mo Lan glared at Li Da Kui.

In the afternoon, we were taken directly to a supply station. It was originally a squad room, which should be a guard barracks, but now there is only an empty bungalow with nothing inside, even a door was removed. Molan moved all the equipment into this house and told us to prepare for the night.

Tents, water sources and dry food. Molan bought a few camels nearby. Because we were afraid of too many people, we only brought a total of six people, including us, into the territory of the ancient country of Luosha this time.

The more people there are, the more dangerous it is at this time.

According to the plan, Dojier's people should enter the desert from the north, and they should arrive before us.

The desert in the morning is not so hot.

At dawn, we had a simple breakfast and set off. According to the prescribed route, we first went to the direction of Loulan ruins, in the core area of ​​Lop Nur.

And this is also the most dangerous place.

It is no less than the netherworld area of ​​the Bermuda Triangle.

The map shows that as long as we don't go in the wrong direction, we can find caves to rest when night falls. Those places are almost all abandoned buildings and naturally formed caves.

Relying on the instructions on the map, we didn't encounter any problems along the way. But as we entered the heart of the desert, the weather became more terrible. The sunlight on our bodies was like countless arrows shooting at us, stinging all over, and sweat almost soaked everyone's body.

And this is just the beginning. If we follow this progress, we will need two or three days to find the ruins of Loulan.

"Hey, why did those disappeared archaeological teams disappear for no reason?" Li Da Kui asked me while riding on a camel, staring at the undulating sand dunes around him.

"Could it really be done by the stone monkey?"

I guessed.

"There is a cave ahead, let's take a rest."

Zhen Yi seemed to be unable to bear the weather, looking ahead, and said weakly.

There is an open area in front of us, which is relatively flat. Most of the stones have been eroded by sand into strange shapes, and the cave is behind one of the stones, as if it has been hollowed out.

A few of us quickly got off the camels and walked around the cave. When we got closer, we found that it was quite spacious and could accommodate six of us.

"It seems that our water is not enough to last until we find the ruins of the ancient country."

Li Da Kui patted the water bottle on his waist.

This is also the most fatal problem. You can go without food for ten days or half a month in the desert, but you must not drink water.

"I wonder if there is a water source around here?"

I looked around. The sun was scorching, and it was difficult to associate it with water. Now we have only walked for two or three days, and more than half of the water source has been consumed. At this speed, let alone finding the ancient country of Rakshasa, even returning may not be enough.
