Chapter 1257 Goodwill

Since the identity of the owner of the car and the purpose of going deep into the desert cannot be found, everyone can only ignore it and continue their journey. [WWw.SuiMеng.lā

After inspection, the engine of Wei Kang's car was seriously damaged when it got stuck in the quicksand. It could not be repaired with the existing conditions, and it was impossible to drag it out of the desert, so it had to be abandoned here.

Everyone shared the supplies and equipment among other cars, while Wei Kang and Du Xuetao shared the same car. Anyway, they were both thin, and their combined weight was about the same as Xiao Tianyu's.

Before leaving, Wei Kang suddenly stopped everyone and said, "Wait a minute, we can't just leave like this."

"What else?" Lippett asked.

Wei Kang pointed to the car that got caught in the quicksand and was burned, "You can't let this car park there, otherwise if there are other people passing by here, such as another scientific expedition team or oil exploration workers, they will see this car , will definitely go to rescue and investigate like us, and may also fall into quicksand and encounter accidents..."

Everyone was silent. This is indeed a problem. The off-road vehicle half buried in the quicksand is like a dangerous flame trap, attracting people like moths.

If they hadn't seen this car and wanted to see what happened, they wouldn't have lost Wei Kang's car.

The depths of the desert are indeed inaccessible, but it is not a vacuum. There will always be scientific expedition teams, oil exploration workers, and explorers entering. In order to prevent others from encountering the same danger, it is necessary to dispose of this car.

But how to deal with it?

Everyone thought of a way, tied a spare tow rope to a small weight, and then threw it towards the car. Since the glass of that car has been completely shattered, as long as the tow rope is wrapped or hooked to the steel skeleton or frame inside the car body, and then dragged with another car, the quicksand will do the rest.

The car that had been parked for an unknown amount of time was dragged, and the surrounding quicksand was disturbed, revealing a ferocious face, and liquefied again.

Everyone cut the leash.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the quicksand opened its mouth wide and swallowed the wreckage of the car completely.

Not long after, the quicksand calmed down, and there was no longer any trace of a car staying here.

As for Weikang's car, the appearance was still intact. They closed the doors and windows tightly, but they didn't lock them. They wrote shocking big characters with a marker on the inside of the windshield - Be careful! Quicksand ahead!

In addition to English,

Everyone also wrote the same words in other languages ​​to warn latecomers.

This is the greatest kindness they can unleash.

After handling it properly, everyone went on the road again.

Go on the road—rest—and go on the road again. When everyone is familiar with this cycle to the point of numbness, Nabari's slightly nervous voice comes from the intercom.

"We're near, near the Sea of ​​Devils."

Arrived?

Everyone woke up from the numbness, and for a moment they didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

Finally arrived at the final destination of this operation, the depression marked on the sheepskin map, the area called the Devil's Sea by the Bedouin?

Everyone stopped.

Before I knew it, it was evening again.

Nabari stood on a slightly higher sandbag, looked into the distance, and kept muttering prayers, but his eyes were full of helplessness, because he knew that even the true god had abandoned this land.

Everyone jumped out of the car, ran to Nabari, and followed his field of vision.

This is the junction of two completely different landforms. The desert they drove through before was a series of parallel sand dunes like waves, high and low, big and small, but from here, the magnificent sand dunes disappeared, and the surface It presents a strange honeycomb-shaped small sand dune, and they have never seen a similar landscape before.

Between the honeycomb-shaped sand dunes, there are miniature whirlwinds hovering one after another, rolling up a small amount of fine sand and moving them together, like yellow fuzzy figures strolling through the tomb.

In addition, everyone can't feel the wind.

The terrain showed a less obvious downward trend, which should be a large depression on the map.

The good news is that the sand here seems to be relatively compact, between the desert and the Gobi, and it will not sink one foot.

Many years ago, this place may have been an oasis, and until now, dead trees can still be seen struggling to get out of the sand and waving their ugly twigs.

There is an increased possibility of man-made buildings here, because there may be human activities if there is an oasis, especially for large-scale projects.

The tight sand may also indicate that the deeper underground is solid soil or rock. Even after the oasis is deserted, there are still some dark springs or dark rivers deep underground that have not completely dried up.

Just a few steps in front of everyone, a pair of white bones of a large animal appeared in the yellow sand. The bones were incomplete and only a long spine remained. It didn’t look like a camel, but it might be a cow or a sheep. domestic animals such as donkeys, donkeys, or large beasts such as hippopotamuses that lived in oasis lakes.

The ancient Egyptians used oxen to plow the land, donkeys to transport them, and sheep to trample seeds, but they did not have camels, which were brought in by the Bedouin after the fall of ancient Egypt.

Nabari spread his hands and said, "I can only take you here, and further on is the territory of the devil. If you want to go, you can only go by yourself. But I advise you to stop here. No matter how important the secret is, It's not worth risking your life."

Everyone heard it, but most of them didn't take it seriously. After all, they arrived here after going through untold hardships. If they just went back like this, why did they come here in the first place?

Especially the people like Li Pitt, they are well prepared psychologically, and their will is more tenacious. Of course, it is impossible to be frightened away by a few baseless words from Nabari.

Zhang Zian glanced back. To his surprise, He He also appeared calmer this time. After seeing the bones of animals and hearing Nabari's warning, although her face was a little frightened, she still did not lose her composure. , perhaps growing on the go?

Wei Kang didn't intend to go deep into the sea of ​​devils, he was more concerned about where Nabari encountered those cats.

Nabari shook his head, "It's been too long, the nearby terrain has changed, and I can't find it anymore, but it's definitely nearby."

Wei Kang and Li Pete looked at each other and nodded to each other, seeing a tacit understanding in each other's eyes.

Both of them came here for their own purposes, and neither of them would leave easily.

"Camp here today, and discuss other matters tomorrow morning."

With Li Pete's order, everyone camped on the outskirts of the Devil's Sea.

Seeing that he couldn't dissuade them, Nabari sighed secretly and murmured, "You will definitely regret it."
