Chapter 262 The Earth Is Dark

[Fifth watch in the middle of the night, so tired.I almost fell asleep after coding, book lovers who read pirated editions, please turn your prodigal son back and subscribe to the genuine edition to support Xiaoqian, thank you]

Jia Longtan opened his mouth lightly.

"That's... a sandstorm!"

The drone followed Jia Long and relayed her words verbatim to the live broadcast screens of thousands of households.

"That's right, I've been a little skeptical for the past two days. During this survival process, we may encounter a sandstorm."

"Sandstorm? Is it the kind of natural disaster that is often shown on TV?"

"Probably not, there are so many sandstorms."

Jia Long didn't even have to look back at the barrage to know what the audience would ask.

She shook her head directly.

"You may think that the legendary sandstorm and other celestial phenomena are rare."

"But this is wrong, at least it is not the case in the Rub Khali Desert. You can search on the Internet. The Rub Khali Desert is the desert with the highest incidence of sandstorms in the world, and it is not one of them. There will be sandstorms every seven days on average every year. A sandstorm occurs, and this frequency is extremely high."

"So it's entirely possible that we've encountered a sandstorm."

"As for why I say I have a premonition, it's because the wind and sand these days seem to be getting bigger every day. Although the sandstorm is coming, there is actually no sign at all, but the wind and sand are getting bigger, which is not a good sign."

What Jia Long said is correct, even if the sandstorm in the desert cannot be predicted perfectly, but the wind and sand in an area keeps getting bigger, which is not good news after all.

Her worries were far from unnecessary.

"In short, let's speed up. At least the goal tonight is to get out of this sand dune area. Otherwise, it will be cold at night, and there will be no burning vegetation, and people may freeze to death."

In order to speed up the progress, Jia Long ventured into the dune terrain at night.

What she worries most is that when it is extremely cold, she is still spinning in the sand dunes, which is a bit dangerous.

How cold is minus ten degrees in the desert, maybe no one has any idea, thinking that minus ten degrees is not cold.

Although many people can survive this kind of cold night, there are a few differences in Jia Long that must be considered.

The first point is that she doesn't wear much clothes and equipment.

The second point is that there are strong winds blowing in the desert anytime and anywhere. Although most of them are small breezes, they are large enough to reduce the body temperature.

The third point is the sand.

The sand at night is the opposite of the daytime. During the day, they absorb heat. At the peak, the temperature of the sand and gravel will be about 22 to [-] degrees higher than the temperature in the air.But at night, the unique hollow structure of the gravel will cause it to release heat quickly. When people lie on it, the temperature they feel is even twice as cold as the air temperature.

To sum up, if you are driving at night in the desert, you must have all or more equipment.Or have a strong survival knowledge and awareness.At least one must realize that under normal circumstances, one cannot drive in the dune area at night, otherwise it will be difficult to overcome the night cold in the sandy area.

Of course, the high temperature during the day is similar, and a lot of attention is also required.

With one hand, Jia Long leaned on the branch of the trekking pole that she had picked up the night before, which had helped her save a lot of energy.

She went 'chih chih chih', in the last sliver of sunset on the horizon, climbed up a sand dune, and then walked down quickly on the shadow side.

"The only good news is that it's not too hot to drive in this environment. When the sun goes down, the temperature will drop faster."

Everything can not be too pessimistic.

In addition to thinking of the bad side, we must also think of the good side.

Jia Long is like this, thinking that the temperature is not high at this time, and her body is comfortable, and correspondingly, her need for water will be less.

Of course, climbing sand dunes is nothing like the previous flat or slightly undulating terrain.

Climbing a small sand dune may be equivalent to the consumption of Jia Long walking a distance of one or two kilometers in flat sand.

Soon, she began to gasp for air.

Although the setting sun at this time is not too harsh, it is still the bright summer sun.As soon as it hits the body, it makes people sweat, especially when they are still exercising with a heavy load.

Climbing like this, Jia Longyong doesn't seem to be fast, but his steps are extremely firm.Within an hour, three or four small sand dunes were turned over in a row.

And the sun finally disappeared completely.

The earth became pitch black.

The moon hangs.

The light of the bright moon only illuminates the side facing it, and the back is completely invisible.

"Look, everyone, there are a lot of sand lizards."

At night, Jia Long discovered that this land of sand dunes was not a complete forbidden zone for life.

It should even be said that the dunes at night are also full of colorful life.

Small palm-length lizards look like four-legged snakes, but they are a little different, moving quickly in the sand.

The targets they chase are spiders, scorpions, or various insects.

Creatures that hide from the sun during the day start to move at night, which is very lively.

"It's amazing. It turns out that there are so many animals in the sand dunes, and they can hardly be seen during the day."

"Master Long, stop acting like eating sand lizards, fans can't stand it."

"Haha, I already have food, so why would I eat it indiscriminately?"

Of course, Jia Long did not try to catch sand lizards as the audience feared.

Instead of provoking those small animals, he walked past them quickly.

The jackal meat on her body was enough to eat, and now she had to consider whether she could leave the dune terrain as soon as possible.

Of course, because nocturnal animals have completely different levels of activity, so Jia Long has an eye for it.

She used fine sand to cover the wounded part of the jackal flesh on her back.

In this way, the smell of blood is eliminated as much as possible, and the troubles caused by the smell of blood to animals that are interested in this flesh and blood are avoided to the greatest extent.

To be honest, even before she trekked the dunes at night, she had already expected the problem of whether she would get lost.

But because of the direction mark of the moon, she didn't care about it.

But when he walked three or five more sand dunes, up and down, Jia Long became dizzy, but suddenly realized that he had really lost his way.

Even if there is a moon, it doesn't matter, because it can only judge the general direction.

And the moon is moving.

"It's troublesome."

Jia Long sighed bitterly, and then he couldn't fully believe the moon's guidance, and instead looked at the most famous "North Star" in the starry sky.

Far away in the sky, there is a string of spoon-shaped stars.

They are the seven stars that the ancient Longxia people watched the stars at night, summed up the rules, and called them the "Big Dipper".

But Jia Long didn't look at them.

Although the Big Dipper can also guide the direction, there is still a deviation. The only one that does not deviate very much is the 'North Star', which is not far from them and whose brightness is not weak.

"North is over there, then southeast is here..."

Through the Polaris, Jia Long quickly analyzed the direction, then shrugged his shoulders, and rushed towards the southeast that was analyzed.

The temperature has been dropping since the sun disappeared.
