He gave instructions to the archaeological team and said he was not a tomb robber.

Chapter 169

On the side, Ye Xiao stood in place, shook the black long knife in his hand violently, shook off the filthy blood stains on it, and put the knife into the sheath in the blink of an eye.

After doing all this, Ye Xiao looked up at the people who were a little stunned, and hurriedly said

, "Why are you still stunned, hurry back to the truck!"

Instead,

Ye Xiao turned his gaze to the sand on the side again.

There are more and more squirming sand dunes around them, and if they don't flee from this place, I'm afraid they won't have a chance again.

When everyone in the archaeological team heard Ye Xiao's words, they seemed to come back to their senses as if they had just woken up from a dream.

Seeing more and more sand dunes bulging around them, everyone only felt a chill in their backs swelling up and their scalps exploding violently.

Immediately, he didn't care about anything else, and ran quickly towards the truck in front of him.

Soon, with the help of Ye Xiao, Mu Li and Tukun, the archaeological team quickly boarded the truck.

To be on the safe side, Tukun was in the carriage just in case.

Mu Li and Ye Xiao were sitting in the front and co-pilot, ready to quickly escape from here.

However, before Mulley could ignite the fire, the carriage began to shake violently with a "bang".

Countless Mongolian worms around the truck were already next to the truck and began to attack the truck.

With the panic in his heart and the shaking of the body, Mu Li couldn't insert the key into the keyhole no matter what.

Suddenly, Mu Li was also sweating profusely.

"If we don't leave here, when more and more worms gather, this place will become a sand pit again, and none of us will be able to escape at that time!"

After saying this, Mu Li couldn't help but turn pale.

In the nick of time, the key was suddenly passed into the keyhole.

Mu Li roared, twisted the key violently, and ignited successfully.

As the surrounding scenery slowly receded, the truck also moved quickly, slowly moving forward.

The body is being hit less and less.

Trucks can finally move gently through the desert.

Seeing that he was out of trouble, Mu Li couldn't help but look overjoyed, and just thought that they were about to get out of trouble.

However, at this moment, Ye Xiao's voice sounded again:

"Change directions!"

Mu Li was slightly stunned, but suddenly saw countless bulges appearing on the sand dunes in front of him.

It's frantically moving in the direction of the truck.

Mu Li's pupils dilated suddenly, and he hurriedly flipped the steering wheel and changed the direction of the truck.

It wasn't until in the rearview mirror that those bulges were getting farther and farther away from everyone that Mu Li suddenly secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The truck drove in the middle of the desert and just went away.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a noise in the back carriage.

After slamming on the brakes to make sure there were no more weird sand dunes around, he got out of the car and went to the car to check on the situation.

After Ye Xiao got out of the car, he first checked the sun in the sky that was setting westward, and then returned to the carriage in the rear.

"What's going on?"

Seeing that everyone's faces were a little unpleasant, Ye Xiao couldn't help but ask.

Professor Zhou put the satellite map in his hand into Ye Xiao's hand, pointed to the small

red dot on it and said:

"The satellite map seems to have lost its effect, and the little red dot on it has never moved!"

Ye Xiao took the satellite map, frowned and observed for a while, then handed the satellite map to Professor Zhou, and then walked out of the carriage again.

Take out the compass from the "backpack", the compass is still pointing steadily in the direction, without an inch of disorder and error.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Xiao returned to the carriage.

Looking at everyone's puzzled looks, Ye Xiao slowly explained:

"We are now... It may have been to the depths of the Erdos Desert, a place that the satellite should not have explored.

"So, it's not that the miniature map has lost its effect, it should be that we have come to the no-man's land of the Erdos Desert!" Outside

the carriage, the desert is windy and sandy, and the sun is lonely.

The hot, hot air was still twisting.

Inside the carriage, the atmosphere gradually became colder.

A chill suddenly rose on everyone's backs, and their faces gradually became ugly.

"We... Coming to the depths of the Erdos Desert?" Professor

Zhou looked at Mu Li on the side as if seeking verification.

Mu Li lowered his head and said with a frown,

"We have been driving for an unknown amount of time to avoid the worm's pursuit.

"Later, after the pursuit of the worms that broke away, we drove for nearly forty minutes, and I don't know where we are now!"

After saying this, Ye Xiao also continued:

"In the unchanging scenery of the desert, and under the stimulation of adrenaline, people's perception of the outside world's time, distance, and direction will be infinitely diluted!"

You may only feel like half an hour, but in fact, it may not be necessary to drive for more than an hour!" this

is what Ye Xiao told him when he traveled to the Sahara and was told to him by an old guide who called the desert living map.

Ye Xiao remembered it until now.

When everyone in the archaeological team heard this, their hearts gradually sank to the bottom.

"What should we do now? We must hurry back to the barracks! The squad leader and his comrades are uncertain about their fate in the attack, so we have to find the troops to come over quickly!" Tukun

said with a solemn look on his face, not without worry.

Professor Zhou also fell into a tight brow and fell into deep thought.

After a while, Professor Zhou raised his head and said helplessly:

"There is no better way now, let's take a look at the integration of supplies, spend the night here today, and go back to the barracks tomorrow by sunrise!"

After Professor Zhou's words were finished, everyone had already begun to act.

Because they didn't plan to spend too long in the desert this time, they didn't prepare too many supplies.

Combined with the consumption on the road before, there are only about two to three days left.

Again...... It's a bad news -- the truck is about to run out of gas!

This news is only known to Professor Zhou, Ye Xiao, Mu Li, and Tu Kun.

In order to avoid panic, Professor Zhou and the others did not plan to tell everyone about this first.

While everyone was camping in full swing, Mu Li protected Professor Zhou and went to find out if there were any satellite images around.

It wasn't until it was just after dark that Zhou Jiaoshu and Mu Li returned to the camp sweating profusely.

Obviously, things didn't go well, and no place with satellite images was found.

In other words, they are still trapped in this desert, and there is no way out.

At this time, Ye Xiao sat by the bonfire, staring at the bonfire in a daze, as if thinking about something.

In order to avoid disturbance, Professor Zhou went to the truck with Mu Li.

He glanced at the busy crowd in the distance, and Professor Zhou cautiously asked

, "How long can the oil in the truck last now?"

"I'm not sure, maybe at most we can only hold on until we return to the Ethiopian Grottoes!"

Mu Li pondered for a moment and replied slowly.

Obviously, even Mu Li now doesn't know how long the diesel left in the truck's fuel tank will last.

When Professor Zhou heard this, he fell silent again.

On this trip, I only found some clues about Genghis Khan's mausoleum, and it was ugly, and this clue was no different from nothing.

However, not only was he attacked by that kind of strange worm on the way, but he even almost got lost in the desert.

At present, the archaeological team is unable to move an inch, and even Professor Zhou suddenly has a sense of powerlessness.

Professor Zhou lowered his arm, sighed and said

, "That's it,

now I can only take one step at a time!"
