The three-person team rushed to Beijing early the next morning and boarded the plane at 2:30 in the afternoon. After more than four hours of voyage, the plane landed in Ulu Muqi.
Ulu Much is warmer than expected. Although there is only a two-hour time difference from Beijing, Ulu Much is also getting dark early in the late autumn. It is estimated to have spent a lot of money. The street light poles are full of long neon lights from top to bottom, changing colors neatly, blue, purple, red, flashing and jumping, looking from one end of the road, especially good looking.
We chose a hotel to stay first, and in the evening we ate a table full of specialties, hand-made lamb, hand-pilaf, lamb buns, fried lamb...
The next day, we rushed to Tarim again. We did not delay our visit to Tarim for too long this time, because Zhang Ling asked someone to purchase all the materials we needed when he was in Beijing.
Because we may need to fight a protracted battle this time, we rented two off-road vehicles. In Tarim, I called Guo Miao again and asked her to send four flower baskets to Chen Ping’s daily chemicals next Sunday.
After lunch in Tarim, we drove two off-road vehicles full of supplies and equipment to officially start the trip to Lop Nur. When we arrived in Kumkuduk, our mobile phones were basically isolated from the world.
At this time, the harsh environment of Lop Nur also began to show its true colors.
After entering the Gobi, there was deathly silence everywhere, but there was a sense of surging pictures, as if muddy water was running, but it was actually still.
Although it was to re-walk the previous journey, because of the desertedness of the Gobi, we could only walk by impression. At night, we chose to camp in a salt-alkali field.
The saline-alkali land is like a muddy sea that has been dried out, and it is suddenly frozen with small waves. It looks like muddy soil with sharp points, but in fact, these sharp points are extremely hard. Enough to cut through brand-new hiking shoes and thick tires.
Zhang Ling took out two maps, one was drawn before she brought people here, and many routes were marked with red pen. Judging from the density of the routes, they should have walked through Lop Nur in a "carpet style" before. The sea.
The other picture is brand new, she got it from Kumu Kuduk
Draw a short route and say: "This is the route we took today, and the route tomorrow is to the Devil City."
The Devil City is a weathered ancient building site, also called Danya Landform.
I said: "When we and Wu Zhengping came, we shouldn't leave like that."
Zhang Ling nodded and said, "Yes. We've traveled the other routes before and haven't found anything, so I want to try this route."
"I think if we want to find Ku Mi, the map and route are basically useless for us. Because the map and route are useful, you have found Ku Mi last time, but you didn't find it in the end."
Big Eye said: "Anzi is right. Sometimes it takes fate to find a place. When fate is reached, you can find it quickly. If there is no fate, even if the place is right in front of you, you may miss it."
Zhang Ling put away the map and said, "You said I understand, but we can't hit the desert and the Gobi Desert like a headless fly."
Big Eye said, "Didn't you find Jumi near the'ears and eyes' of the Ear of the Earth before? Just go directly."
"We have looked for it last time, and we have used all the methods and methods, but we have not found anything."
I pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe we should find Baburu Oasis first. If we can find the second fool, Zhao Mingli, the best way. After all, it was he who led us at the time."
Zhang Ling nodded and said, "I think so too, so I decided to go to the Devil City first, because the approximate location of Baburu Oasis is near the Devil City."
I clicked on two cigarettes with my big eyes, handed me one, and said with deep meaning: "Are you sure that the Baburu Oasis really exists?"
Zhang Ling said, "Of course. What do you mean?"
"I mean, Baburu Oasis may be a disappeared place. So when I look for it a second time, I won't find it. What you encountered at the time was only an illusion."
Zhang Ling and I looked at each other, if it was really what the big eyes said, wouldn't Ju Mi also exist, all our experiences are just an illusion!
However, I found the Qiqiao Linglongxin, and the fulfillment of the ghost contract is absolutely true!
My subconscious handle
Put it on your chest, feel your own heartbeat, and say: "Even though we have experienced hallucinations, we must have got substantial things in the hallucinations."
Zhang Ling was a little excited, and said firmly: "It can't be an illusion, it's absolutely impossible!"
I can understand Zhang Ling’s feelings at this time. She has always believed that there are aliens in the world, and Ju Mi’s incident undoubtedly proves her point of view, but if everything is an illusion, then aliens will undoubtedly become yellow Liang Yimeng.
Big Eye shrugged and said, "I just said casually. I have to tell evidence about everything. So I agreed to go to Devil City to see."
Everyone is tired after a long day's rush, so we put aside this sensitive topic for the time being and went back to the tent to rest. When the whiteness of the east appeared, we embarked on the journey again.
After more than two hours of turbulence, we finally arrived at the Devil City. When I first saw the Devil City, I couldn't help but sigh the power of nature. The ancient ruins were all carved into sculptures of different shapes and aesthetics by time, giving people a desolate beauty.
After thousands of years of wind and sun, I don’t know how many vicissitudes of life these sites have witnessed.
We climbed up to the place that we believed to be the highest point, and found that a mountain was even higher than a mountain, and we looked endlessly.
Pointing with big eyes to the dilapidated ruins in the distance, he said, "Go over there and take a look."
Zhang Ling and Big Eye walked down the slope of the soil, and the large chunks of soil rolled down with them, bringing up billowing yellow ash.
I took out my binoculars and looked at the place where the big eye was just pointing. I saw the collapsed houses, the dilapidated city walls, and the yellow sand rolled up by the wind.
Just when I was about to put down the telescope, I suddenly saw a red color on a mound.
It was a woman wearing a fiery red trailing skirt. She was like a blooming flower, flying her skirt coquettishly in the wind and sand, forming a strong contrast with the loess...
But all I can see is her tactful back and a black hair that dances in the wind like a waterfall.
I put down the telescope in surprise, and there was nothing on the mound in the distance, so I picked up the telescope again and looked at it, and only yellow sand was left on the mound.
She is gone!
"Anzi, come down, what are you in a daze!" Big eyes shouted at me from below.
