Chapter 1292: Two Roads

Zhang Zian estimated that he had already fled to the edge of the Devil's Sea, but his confidence was very small, because first the ground cracked and then the black storm, the terrain had completely changed, and all the unique honeycomb sand dunes disappeared, replaced by the most common large parallel sand dunes in the desert. The dunes, the perilous experience of the Devil's Sea, now seem like a dream.

After the storm, the sunset is especially soft, the air is extraordinarily clear, the temperature is cool and comfortable, and everything feels like a new life.

The elves also jumped out of the car windows one after another, shaking the sand on their bodies, enjoying the joy of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe.

Looking at the off-road vehicle again, everyone was shocked. Except that half of the car was buried, the paint on the car body was worn away by the violent sandstorm to reveal the iron skin, and the outside of the glass was full of horizontal stripes. The sandpaper, the tent on the roof of the car, etc. are long gone.

Although the sunset is infinitely beautiful, it's only near dusk, but Zhang Zian doesn't have much mood to appreciate the scenery, because he has to dig out the car quickly while it's cool, and the only one who can work here is his elder brother, even if his eyes suggest that there is no one help.

He asked Famous to find a folding shovel from the trunk, and took it out, threw off his shirt and started working naked.

It's not easy to dig out half a car from the sand. To dig out a shovel of sand and flow it back into the pit for at least half a shovel is a waste of effort.

"Come on! Come on!" Richard gloated and watched the excitement.

The sun went down, we ate dinner indiscriminately, hung up the camping lights again, and continued to work profusely.

It's a pity that I went into the desert without gloves, and the palms of my hands quickly became red and burned, so I had to tear off a shirt, wrap my hands with cloth, and continued to work reluctantly.

Counting it, he hadn't closed his eyes all day and night, just sat in the driver's seat and dozed off for a while

It's not that he wants to fight so hard, food and water are limited, and now he doesn't even know where he is, and if he stays here for one more day, he will be in danger for one more day.

All he knew was that he did not leave the Sea of ​​Devils by the same route on the north side, but was probably in one of the three directions: east, south, and west. Crossing the sea, without Nabari as a guide, the desert environment was completely foreign to him.

It was agreed before that the scientific expedition team would only wait for him at the predetermined location for 48 hours, and then had to leave for the safety of most of the team members. Now almost half of the time has passed, and he must arrive within the remaining 24 hours, otherwise Zhang Zian will have to find a way to drive out of the desert by himself.

Although the members of the scientific expedition team are not all reliable, human beings live in groups after all, and living in a group will make you feel more at ease, and you will have someone to take care of you in case something happens.

I dug like this until it was almost dawn, and finally dug the car out of the sand. A slope was dug out of the sand in front of the car. I also found a few stone slabs from the ruins and laid them under the tires to make the car smooth when starting. enough grip.

The elves had already fallen asleep tiredly. After doing all this, he slumped down on the driver's seat with sore body and fell into a deep sleep.

the next day.

In his sleep, he felt pain and itching on his chin, and when he opened his eyes in a daze, he saw a bird's butt facing his mouth, as if it was trying to squeeze shit out.

Snapped!

He swung Richard away resignedly, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth—hope it was saliva, then sat up straight and looked around with dull eyes.

The bones all over the body are like falling apart, headache, muscle pain, dry mouth, mouth ulcers, pantothenic acid in the stomach, nothing is comfortable.

The elves have already woken up, and their spirits are not very good. They all look tired, because the sound of his work last night affected their sleep. If I had known earlier, I should put them in the mobile phone and save some water and food.

"Zian, how is it?" Seeing that his mental state was extremely poor, Lao Cha asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, I can hold on."

Zhang Zian barely pulled himself together and called the elves to get on the car.

Fortunately, the car started smoothly, roaring and rolling the stone slabs, and rushed out of the bunker.

After driving aimlessly for a while, the navigator finally returned to normal, which meant that they had escaped from the magnetic field of the Devil's Sea. Through the navigation, I learned that this place is located on the southeast side of the Devil's Sea, far away from the original route, and even farther away from the scheduled meeting point.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Zian's heart sank. Even with the most optimistic estimates, it might be difficult to reach the scheduled location tonight.

"What's the matter? The situation is not very good?" Fei Max asked, noticing that his complexion had gotten worse.

Zhang Zian sighed and stopped the car.

Everyone is in the same boat, and there is nothing that cannot be hidden from the elves, and everyone is working hard, so maybe they can brainstorm.

He got out of the car, first counted the reserves of food and fuel, and then squatted on the sand to draw a schematic diagram for the elves.

"We are here at this time, this is the sea of ​​​​devils, this is the meeting point with the scientific expedition team..." He drew two points and a circle, and the two points were located on the north and southeast sides of the circle, " The current situation is that it is difficult for us to arrive at the scheduled location at the scheduled time, so there are two roads before us: the first is to implement the original plan and go to the scheduled location to meet the scientific expedition team, but this depends on They took the initiative to extend the waiting time, otherwise when we arrived, they might have already left, and we would not only waste time, food and fuel; the second way..."

He drew another point in the distance, "This is the Siwa Oasis. The second way is, let's not meet with the scientific expedition team, and take a shortcut back to the Siwa Oasis directly from here."

As for the so-called shortcut, of course it is the shortest straight line between two points, but this is not the original road, but a new road that has never been taken before.

If there were only Wei Kang, Nabari, and Salim, it would probably take longer to wait for his arrival, but the scientific expedition team was not in the same mood, so they really couldn't pin their hopes on them.

You can't blame them, who made him promise for 48 hours?

From their point of view, it is okay to extend the time, but how long should it be extended? You can't just keep waiting.

In such an extremely harsh situation, people always prioritize their own safety, and everyone is eager to go home. Human nature is so, and this is not wrong.

The various situations that happened along the way gave the elves some understanding of the internal situation of the scientific expedition team. If they pin their hopes on those people, the biggest possibility is to usher in disappointment.

Old Cha took a deep look at his exhausted face, and before the other elves could express their opinions, he made a decision and said, "Needless to say, choose the second path. Zian, you have too little sleep, rest until the afternoon before starting. "
