After Cheng Yi took off his parachute, he began to sort out the many equipment he and the old man carried with them.
Hats, walking sticks, first aid supplies...
The old man took the cane in his hand and punched it on the ground.
Then, he took out his walkie-talkie and said to the helicopter pilot hovering in the sky:
"Go back the same way you came. If necessary, I will contact you again."
The driver's voice came from the other end of the intercom. He sounded like a young man.
"Roger, boss, do you want me to circle around and take some photos?"
Hearing this, the old man did not answer hastily, but looked up at Xu Cheng.
He had just arrived, and even though Xu Cheng shared a certain amount of information, there were still some details that he couldn't take into account.
Of course Xu Cheng shook his head.
He took out two cigarettes, one for himself and one for the old man.
Both of them took a gentle breath.
Xu Cheng reminded: "It's very dangerous."
The eyewitness organization is backed by the authorities, and of course there are helicopters and the like.
But why didn't the witnesses choose to use helicopters for investigation in advance?
In fact, in most extraordinary events, helicopters are rarely used as a means of transportation.
Because if it were an ordinary weird incident, there would be no need to send out helicopters. It would be too conspicuous, and witnesses would be enough to handle it.
And if it's that kind of large-scale weird incident, the helicopter will be completely cannon fodder, and there is no need to dispatch it.
The old man understood what Xu Cheng meant and nodded.
"No need, go back the way you came, and be careful on the way."
"Roger that, boss."
The helicopter pulled up its fuselage, gradually left the sight of the two people, and disappeared into the horizon.
"call!"
The old man put his cane on the ground, looked up at Lamba Town in the distance, and gently took a breath of the dry air in the desert.
He had a premonition that today must be an extraordinary day.
It will be a lot of fun.
"Okay, let's go!"
The old man said excitedly.
Beside him, Xu Cheng also pressed down the brim of his hat.
He was wearing adventure clothes and a brown fisherman's hat, which really gave him the elegance of an old adventurer.
The two traveled lightly, chatting all the way, and headed straight to Lamba Town.
Xu Cheng asked: "Do you want to find a local guide?"
But the old man shook his head, "The local guide cannot be trusted."
"I've investigated before."
He explained: "This area has been developed into a tourist area for a long time. Most of the internal guides are not locals, but come from other places to make money."
"If you look for anyone at random, you will most likely find a half-empty bastard who cannot provide critical information and has no experience in moving forward in the desert."
This is the embarrassing thing about tourist areas.
The business nature is very strong, and there are no serious locals to be found here.
The old man shrugged helplessly.
"So after I received your contact, I arranged for someone to search here early, and finally I found a more reliable guide."
Hearing this, Xu Cheng lit his cigarette ashes and sighed:
"That's awesome."
"You are also very powerful."
The old man also sighed: "You can find me such interesting fun, how could I not help?"
The two old men walked in front, talking and laughing, as if they were not bound by anything.
And behind the two of them——
Cheng Yi prepared a large bag of equipment, plus two sets of parachutes, and struggled to keep up.
Without the use of raw energy, equipment weighing dozens of kilograms is almost the limit of what Cheng Yi can bear.
He looked at his boss and the old man named Xu Cheng talking and laughing.
Cheng Yi: "..."
Well, does anyone care about me?
some.
The translucent Chu Qiu walked beside Cheng Yi.
She looked at the young man and encouraged him with an eager but invisible gaze.
He clenched his hands into fists and said seriously:
"come on!"
Of course, Cheng Yi couldn't hear it.
…
The two... ah no, the three of them returned to Lamba Town on foot.
This is also the first time for the old man to come here.
After all, it is a purely commercial tourist area. Normally, the old man is not very interested in this kind of place.
"Just wait outside, otherwise it will be really troublesome if you meet my champion."
He took out his cell phone and contacted the guide who had already prepared it.
Not long after, a dark-skinned local guide drove an open-top off-road jeep and stopped in front of the three of them.
He was a middle-aged man who looked quite mature and steady.
The jeep is also equipped with a large amount of supplies and equipment to ensure the safety of this trip.
Xu Cheng, the old man, and Cheng Yi got into the car.
Xu Cheng and the driver were sitting in the front seat, while the old man and Cheng Yi were in the back seat.
Chu Qiu sat on the front hood of the jeep, looking for some excitement.
This arrangement is very strict, because Xu Cheng can cover the entire jeep, while Cheng Yi can cover his own boss.
Kick the accelerator.
The jeep left the town of Lamba and headed straight to the depths of the Lambalama Desert in the northwest.
The whole journey was speechless.
Xu Cheng was a little surprised by this.
Normally, a guide would be curious when faced with three people who wanted to go to no man's land no matter what.
At least give some instructions, or say a few words of appreciation for the courage of the three of them.
But this person didn't think so.
Like a perfect tool man, he only knows how to drive and take them to their destination.
Xu Cheng noticed the guide's side pocket, which was filled with rectangular papers.
Then, he looked back at the old man.
understood.
The old man didn't want others to pry into the purpose of his trip, so of course he had his own way of dealing with it.
The jeep drove in the desert for nearly two hours.
There was no road or obstruction, and everyone was moving very fast.
"Strictly speaking, it's almost there."
The swarthy middle-aged guide suddenly spoke.
"This is already close to the edge of the ancient city of Lamba, but due to weathering problems, the remaining buildings are still deeper and the outer edges are no longer visible."
Xu Cheng and the old man looked around and found nothing that they could only care about.
However, at this moment, Chu Qiu suddenly reminded Xu Cheng.
"Old man, it's so...hot around here."
Um?
Xu Cheng felt it for a while, but didn't feel anything unusual.
hot?
Although the desert does heat up during the day, Chu Qiu obviously didn't mean that kind of "heat", but something extraordinary.
Xu Cheng waved his hand to signal the old man and Cheng Yi to stay alert.
"There's about half an hour's drive left, and we're about to reach our destination."
The tour guide is still introducing necessary information.
"I won't say anything more."
"I don't know anything about the bosses, I just care about making money."
"Speaking of which, the bosses are really interesting. They actually gave me so much money."
"There's nothing interesting about those ruins. It's better to go shopping in a big city. At least there are delicious food and fun things."
"In recent years, there has been talk of developing Lanba Town into a famous blue tourist area, but suddenly a lot of outsiders came and made trouble every day. Instead, the locals left almost all the time. I was almost bored to death. I was bored to death.
, so annoying, so annoying..."
At this time, without Chu Qiu's reminder, the other three people in the car also noticed something strange.
They looked at the middle-aged guide and found that his eyes were red, as if he was in an extremely excited state.
The middle-aged guide suddenly stepped on the accelerator and shouted: "Why don't we all die together!"
The jeep is racing through the desert.
The rest were wondering how to stop the crazy middle-aged wizard.
Chu Qiu raised his head and looked at the sky based on his own feelings.
"Huh?"
Chu Qiu noticed something even more unusual.
The sky is no longer the cloudless blue, but like a dartboard target, layered with different blues, one after another, interlocking!
