Tang Feng didn't know that this was the first few days after their accident, maybe it was the second day, maybe the third day, maybe... At this moment, the midday sun was scorching the earth, and Tang Feng was walking staggeringly in the desert, his lips were because of The lack of water has already cracked, and the skin on the face and arms has collapsed due to the scorching sun.

However, he still didn't find any trace of Han Jiang and Liang Yuan, and he didn't even find any signs of life. Tang Feng began to understand what caused the annihilation of the scientific expedition team back then. Two lines of tears flowed from the corners of Tang Feng's eyes. He felt that Han Jiang and Liang Yuan are more or less fortunate, and I am afraid they have been buried under the long yellow sand forever.

Tang Feng walked forward step by step in the desert like this, he had forgotten the time, he could no longer distinguish the direction, and he just mechanically moved forward in a direction he didn't know.

Slowly, slowly, Tang Feng had reached his physical limit. Tang Feng instinctively squeezed his chapped lips, opened his throat again, and shouted twice, "Han... Jiang..., Yuan... Yuan... ..." His voice became lower and lower, and at the end, Tang Feng gave up shouting completely, and now he only needs one thing, which is water!
Tang Feng was dizzy, he shook his head vigorously, and saw a long high sand mountain in front of him, he had no strength to climb up this sand mountain, Tang Feng staggered and fell on the hot On the sandy ground, he supported himself and looked up at the sand mountain in front of him, trying to stand up again, but he had no strength, Tang Feng fell heavily on the sandy ground again, he thought of giving up, he slowly closed his eyes, maybe Here is his final grave.

grave?Tang Feng suddenly felt that it was too ugly for him to die lying on his stomach like this. Before he died, he had to make a joke with archaeologists hundreds of years later, so Tang Feng turned his side and turned around. With a smile on his face, looking directly at the scorching sun above his head, holding the dagger in one hand, the point of the knife rushed up, and placed it on his stomach, while the other hand raised the jade huang, and then gently landed on his chest, this posture It should be able to be studied by archaeologists hundreds of years later. Thinking of this, Tang Feng closed his eyes with satisfaction.

But Tang Feng suddenly felt a chill on his chest, as if there was a piece of ice on his chest, he struggled and opened his eyes again, Tang Feng found that it was the jade huang, at this moment, the jade huang was cold, Tang Feng grabbed it Yuhuang, he thought of that masked woman again, didn't hide the queen? !For some reason, when Tang Feng looked at this piece of jade, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in his heart. He didn't know where he got the strength to stand up again!

Tang Feng continued to stumble forward. He had already made up his mind to climb over the sand dune in front of him and make one last attempt. Although Tang Feng didn't know what it meant to him, it might be his instinct to survive. Or there is still something in my heart that I can't let go of.

Tang Feng exhausted his last strength and finally climbed to the top of the sand dune. In the last section, he almost used his hands and feet to climb up.Tang Feng wanted to stand up, but he tried and fell down in the sand again. Tang Feng lay on the sand dune for a long time, until a huge eagle appeared in the sky, Tang Feng regained his strength and stood up. When he got up, he looked up at the eagle hovering in mid-air. He really wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly into the air to take a look at this magical land!But when Tang Feng's eyes moved to the bottom of the sand mountain, he didn't care about growing a pair of wings anymore, because he saw a miraculous scene - under the sand mountain, there was actually a big sea, and the water in the sea was exposed to the sunlight. It is glowing golden under the light.

Tang Feng rushed down the sand mountain, he wanted to shout excitedly, but he didn't have the strength to shout. When Tang Feng rolled to the edge of Haizi, he threw away the dagger in his hand, and even Yuhuang was thrown by him. Standing aside, Tang Feng's upper body directly rushed into Haizi. He buried his whole head in the water, and then got out of the water, gulping down the water in Haizi. His posture was like that of a hungry man on the grassland. zebra.

However, Tang Feng felt that there was something wrong with the water while drinking it. He raised his head, kept a certain distance from the water surface, and looked closely. Why is the water white?He was so shocked that he quickly spit out the water that he hadn't swallowed in his mouth, and it was all white. However, Tang Feng smashed his mouth, and felt that the water was sweet and cool, and the taste was very good. It could even be regarded as the best drink in his life. water.

But this white water had to make Tang Feng vigilant. He stared at the water surface suspiciously. The white water was not milk, nor was it as white as milk, nor was it as sticky and greasy as milk. It was clearly water, but why did it appear? What about a touch of white?

When Tang Feng was hesitating, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a large golden reed beside Haizi. Since reeds can grow in this water, then the water should be drinkable. Thinking of this, Tang Feng felt a little relieved , but only for a few seconds, Tang Feng suddenly found some white things faintly in the reeds, Tang Feng was startled, he got into the reeds, pushed the reeds away, his eyes widened suddenly Oh, it's bones, and I met bones again!

Tang Feng pushed aside the reeds next to him again, and a lot of bones appeared in front of his eyes. Tang Feng's heart suddenly became colder. These bones were all thrown on the shore of Haizi. Could it be... Could it be that these people all Is it someone like yourself who rushed into Haizi to drink water because of hunger and thirst?
On this scorching summer day, Tang Feng felt a chill rising from his back. These people who drank the water from Haizi should have fallen to their death in an instant by the side of Haizi. He also drank the water from Haizi just now. , It seems that my end is not far away, Tang Feng couldn't help sneering twice, and he didn't forget to make a joke with himself when his fate came, first give you hope, and then crush your hope to pieces.

Tang Feng drank water now and regained some physical strength. He was not reconciled, and continued to check the reeds, and several skeletons appeared again, some fell down by the water, and some were twisted together. It is conceivable that I knew the pain of these people before they died, but when Tang Feng pushed aside another reed, he suddenly found two familiar faces looking at him.

When Tang Feng saw those two people, he jumped back in shock and sat down on the sand beside Haizi.At this time, the two people slowly came out from behind the reeds. Tang Feng saw that one of them was smiling, and the other was frightened. It was Han Jiang and Liang Yuan.

"You...you two... all right?!" Tang Feng stammered and asked.

"Why, are you expecting something to happen to us?" Han Jiang grinned.

"No!..." Tang Feng felt a little confused in his head, and said incoherently: "No, I just...just think that...that terrible black dust storm, and...haven't found you for so long ..."

"Hmph, you're all right, why did something happen to us?"

"I...I almost died...how is it all right?"

"Tang Feng, how do you feel now?" Liang Yuan looked uneasy and frightened.

"Why, why do you look like this, I'm not dead yet!"

"You drank the water here just now, how do you feel?" Liang Yuan asked.

"No...it's okay, but the water is a bit strange, why is it all white?" Tang Feng seemed to have recovered, stood up and walked to the edge of Haizi.

"After we encountered a black dust storm three days ago, we couldn't find you..."

Tang Feng interrupted Liang Yuan, "Three days?! It's already been three days."

"Yes, it's been three days. Fortunately, when Team Han and I woke up, the backpack was still there. We survived for two days with some food and water left in the backpack, but yesterday we ran out of water and food. , we are also looking for you, I... I thought I would see you again..." Liang Yuan choked up a little when she said this.

"I'm fine! If you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future!" Tang Feng patted Liang Yuan's shoulder to comfort her.

"But...but you drank the water here just now..." Liang Yuan became even more sad as she spoke.

"Tang Feng, how do you feel now?" Han Jiang asked.

Tang Feng rolled his eyes, and tried his best to recollect the taste of the water he drank just now, "No, I don't feel anything, this water is still a bit sweet!"

"Damn, is it true or not, is it a little sweet?" Han Jiang stared at the water suspiciously.

"Really, speaking of it, I'm not as lucky as you guys. When I woke up, there was only a dagger and this jade pendant left, oh, and a kettle, but the sad thing is that the lid of the kettle was not screwed on tightly, and all the water in it was left. I ran out of water, I had neither food nor water, so I kept walking in the desert. When I saw this lake just now, I was already thirsty and crazy. I didn't even think about it. When I was full, I realized that the color of the water was wrong! "

"We also ran out of ammunition and food yesterday. We found this lake this morning. We thought it was a road to heaven and earth. Who would have thought that the water would be of such a color that neither of us dared to drink it? I can't bear to give up this water source, so we have been entangled until now, in order to avoid the scorching sun at noon, we have been staying in the reeds, but I didn't expect you to come here." Han Jiang described the previous situation.

"Tell me about you, how can you look like a leading cadre?" Tang Feng asked Han Jiang back.

"What's wrong with me?" Han Jiang went in without knowing.

"Leading cadres must dare to set an example. You two found this place in the morning, and now you dare not taste the water here? Do you want Liang Yuan to taste it first?" Tang Feng scolded Han Jiang.

"That's right, I'm reluctant to leave, and I dare not taste it!" Liang Yuan also echoed Tang Feng.

Han Jiang was in a hurry, "Damn, if I make up my mind to leave, can you meet your Tang Feng? Besides, there is obviously something wrong with the color of the water, do you want me to die!"

"Do you think this sounds like what the leading cadres said? What about your survival skills in the wild?" Tang Feng continued to question Han Jiang.

"Survival skills in the wild, I have never encountered water of this color! And... and there are so many bones in the reeds, according to my experience in the wild, this water is very suspicious!"

"Bones? You two also found these bones!"

"Nonsense, of course I saw it, but because we have to keep our bodies hydrated, I plan to wait until the sun is about to set before examining these bones." Han Jiang said.

"I see that you, the captain, have come to an end. Not only can't you dare to set an example, but you are also afraid of hardship and tiredness. A single sun will scare you like this!" Tang Feng looked disdainful.

"Damn it, I'm already the captain. You don't feel pain in your back when you stand and talk. You just drank so much water. Otherwise, just you, you still have the energy to argue with me now?!"

"Then you should drink! No one is stopping you!" Tang Feng urged.

Han Jiang was not in a hurry to drink water, and then circled around Tang Feng three times, "You think I really dare not drink!" After speaking, Han Jiang turned to Liang Yuan and said, "Miss, he seems to be fine , let's not be afraid!"

When Tang Feng heard this, he was so angry that he didn't die, "I'll do an experiment if you co-author it!"

"Yes! The test results look very good!"

"Bah! Let me tell you that this water may be a chronic poison, and I may have an attack tomorrow!"

"Thank you for your advice, Liang Yuan. Listen to my order. We can't drink as much as he does. We only drink three sips. After the sun goes down, we can drink without any problem!" Han Jiang warned.

Tang Feng was even angrier after hearing this!But there is no way, who asked me to voluntarily make a test product!

Han Jiang and Liang Yuan only drank three sips, and felt refreshed and much better. Han Jiang couldn't help sighing, "It's so strange, this water is so turbid, but it tastes sweet and refreshing, like rain!"

"Yeah! It's really a little sweet, I think the water is fine." Liang Yuan echoed.

"But how to explain these bones?" Tang Feng picked up a tibia from the reeds.

Han Jiang pointed to the opposite side of Haizi, "Tang Feng, before you came, we had already walked around Haizi. In addition to the bones in the reeds here, there were also some bones on the other side of the bank, and the bones there were left behind. more clues."

"Oh! Have you checked it?" Tang Feng asked back.

"You went to see it and you know it."

Tang Feng looked towards the other side of Haizi, and sure enough, he saw some bones looming on the sand on the other side, and there seemed to be something else.

Tang Feng inspected it visually. This Haizi is oval in shape with a diameter of about 20 meters. The distance from his location to the opposite bank is slightly longer. Tang Feng identified the direction with a compass. The location is just south of Haizi, the reeds where the bones were found just now are in the east, and the other three sides are bare without reeds.

The three of them counted the remaining equipment and items on the south bank.The food was exhausted, the kettles they were carrying had all been bottomed out, and a large number of equipment and items were buried in the rolling yellow sand along with the donkey. The only equipment left by the three of them was Tang Feng's compass and Han Jiang's electronic compass, and the other two When the black dust storm came, Yu Chaping's photo and Misha's letter were fortunately stuffed into his backpack by Han Jiang, so they were not swept away by the black dust storm.

"This is all we have left now, I hope we can add something here." Han Jiang said suddenly.

Tang Feng was puzzled, and followed Han Jiang to the north bank. When the three of them bypassed the reeds, Han Jiang and Tang Feng counted the bones found inside in detail, and there were as many as thirteen bones in total.

After cleaning up, the three continued to move along the shore to the north bank.Not long after, more terrifying skeletons appeared on the sandy ground on the north shore of Haizi, some fell down on the sandy ground, some lay flat on the sandy ground, but none of them died on the shore of Haizi. It's not the same as those bones in the reeds.

"See what's coming?" Han Jiang asked.

"These people were all on the sand when they died, no one fell on the shore or on the water."

"anything else?"

"And..." Tang Feng suddenly noticed that some of these corpses still had clothes left on their bodies, and there were some items beside them, "There are also these clothes and items."

"Well, I just took a look and saw some problems." Han Jiang said, picked up an AK-47 rifle from a corpse, inspected it carefully, and said in surprise, "This The model of the thing is exactly the same as the AK-47 we found in Devil City, and even I checked the number of the gun, and the number of this AK-47 is actually connected to the number of AK-47 found in Devil City.”

"Ah... this... this..." Tang Feng was stunned, his mouth was open, but he didn't speak a complete sentence.He hurried a few steps to inspect the bones, and found that most of the clothes left on the bones were Chinese tunic suits or leather jackets. "Could this be the member of the scientific expedition team that died?"

Han Jiang nodded heavily, "I didn't expect to find them here. I roughly counted the bones on the north bank, and there are fifteen remains in total. In this way, including the thirteen remains found in the reeds, there are a total of 28 remains." In addition, the remains of three missing officers were found in Devil City, as well as three known survivors, and a total of 34 members of the scientific expedition team have been discovered.”

"Then there should be a few remains. They may have been blown to other places by the dust storm." Liang Yuan thought about it.

Tang Feng shook his head and said, "This can't be counted in this way. Have you forgotten about the people from Ma Changguo?"

"A person from Ma Changguo?"

"That's right, although he doesn't have many people, he's definitely not alone. When the black dust storm comes, he can't run away. Ma Changguo survived by luck, but his people are probably in danger."

"So you think there may be people from Ma Changguo among these bones?"

"It's entirely possible. Why did the bones we found divide into two parts regularly, one part was in the sand on the north bank, and the other part was in the reeds on the south bank?" Tang Feng looked suspiciously at the reeds not far away. clump.

"You mean some people from Ma Changguo?" Before Tang Feng could answer, Han Jiang shook his head and said, "No, no, it's impossible. There is absolutely no way Ma Changguo has so many people. Later, he had a group of people under his command, but it is absolutely impossible for this group of people to follow the scientific expedition team so far, otherwise they would have been discovered by the scientific expedition team."

"How is it impossible? As long as Ma Changguo is familiar with the geographical environment here, he can completely ambush his troops somewhere deep in the desert. I even suspect that the scientific expedition team was not swallowed by the black dust storm, but by Ma Changguo. They killed them." Tang Feng deduced.

"This... I still can't believe it. If there are people in Ma Changguo, why would they take the risk of going deep into the camp of the scientific expedition team to instigate Misha?"
