When Alexander said "Lop Nur" in his mouth, Zi Yang and Lao Wang were both shocked.

Lao Wang was stunned and said in wonder, "What does this mean? The plan is not like this, why don't you play according to the routine?"

Alexander explained to them: "You have seen Professor Wang, he is very conservative. If we say it clearly to him, he will definitely not agree. Although the new route is more dangerous, don't worry, we are carrying the most advanced equipment and equipment in the world, and we are also well prepared for food and water, so there will be no problem."

Zi Yang didn't answer and looked at him coldly.

This young man has a cunning and mentality that is not commensurate with his age. Alexander has discovered this. He thought that the two guys Su Rui led were just two ignorant young people in the school. Unexpectedly, he not only had a wide range of knowledge, but also could watch astrological signs. Not only did he put away his contempt for Zi Yang and apologized solemnly: "I'm sorry, I didn't tell you in advance. If you want to go back, I won't stop you."

Zi Yang thought to himself, you said it lightly. We are all people with zero survival ability in the wild. It took at least a few hours to come out just now. You said you could go back? Besides, when you went back in disgrace, where would you put your faces in the Mediterranean?

Alexander added: “If you wish, you, with your partner, will join as a formal partner of our expedition – no longer a entourage. This means that you can use and share our equipment and results.”

This is the treatment that the Mediterranean dreams of! Zi Yang was not overjoyed. He was considering the safety of his group and how much information Alexander had hidden.

But I couldn't think about it. Things have reached this point and I can only unite with him. Everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope. They have advanced equipment and there should be no problems. But this person is not very kind in doing things, so he has to be a little careful.

He nodded and said, "It's over, so we can only accept it and keep going." The group of people moved slowly forward.

Lao Wang came to Zi Yang and said, "What's going on? Then the foreigner is shaking us? Do you want me to go over and beat him up?"

Zi Yang waved his hand and said, "It's okay, just take care of yourself. Please help me watch Xiao Hei. It's the first time he's out so far."

Lao Wang said, "This child is heartless, so you don't have to worry about it. I see his spirit, staring at him with bright eyes, which is more excited than us."

After Lao Wang was far apart from him again, Zi Yang caught up with Su Rui's camel and said to her gently, "Did you know it long ago?"

Su Rui looked at him with wide eyes, "What do you know?"

Zi Yang said: "From the time we meet with foreigners - no, from the beginning of planning this project, have you made up your mind to act separately with the professors and the others? Along the way, foreigners are incompatible with the Mediterranean, and they are also deliberately pretending? Are you deliberately trying to force the professors to take the initiative to act separately, right?"

Su Rui stared at him with big eyes and said with apologies: "I didn't expect you to find out so soon. Yes, Dr. Alexander had no intention of acting with the professor from the beginning - these things were originally planned to be told to you later."

"The purpose of our inspection this time was never Loulan. From the beginning, the doctor set his goal at Lop Nur. But as you said just now, Lop Nur is a forbidden area for foreign inspection teams.

And you also know that the doctors and the others cannot pass through the border alone with so many advanced instruments and equipment, so they have to find domestic institutions to cooperate. This is also a helpless move. China does not allow foreign institutions to explore alone in the country, but allows cross-border cooperation led by China. Therefore, this project has taken a lot of trouble, and I don’t know how much effort it has been spent behind my uncle and others.”

From the beginning, Zi Yang was suspicious of many things here, and his doubts became deeper along the way. Obviously, what Alexander and his friends studied did not want Professor Wang and other experts to know. Please let them be together, so that they can cover up their eyes and ears, and they don’t have to worry about being seen through the secret. To put it bluntly, they are the other side of them.

It was very unhappy to be tricked by someone, Zi Yang teased, "What a big game of chess, then you already knew it from the beginning? Inviting us a few is also a purpose?"

Su Rui said a little aggrievedly, "No, I only learned the inside story after meeting Dr. Alexander - I just invited you at the beginning, but I just felt that I had no common language with those professors, so how boring it would be! So I want to find someone familiar with you. Don't you often say that you want to get more contact with historical and cultural relics?"

Seeing that Zi Yang didn't trust her, Su Rui said stubbornly: "Do you think I'm using you too? When I invited you, I didn't force you, right? I've asked you for your opinion before, right?"

Zi Yang thought to himself, indeed, he had his own selfish intentions when he followed him. He quickly explained: "No, no, I just don't like the feeling of being blinded. Since you have made it clear, I'll feel relieved."

Su Ruiyan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't hide anything from you in the future. Let's be honest and be good friends, okay?"

Zi Yang smiled and looked at her, thinking, I would have been fine if this was the case.

At this time, the cold moonlight shone faintly on the vast earth. Su Rui sat on the camel without saying a word, her long eyelashes drooped down and she looked at the ground in front of her silently.

Zi Yang suddenly felt a little unbearable. His tone just now was very unfriendly. Is this a little too much to treat a girl? Perhaps she didn't know many decisions in advance. It might be a coincidence that if Alexander wants to cause trouble, there is no reason to take these three "crash" to the point.

Zi Yang deliberately pulled down the reins of the camel and slowed down the distance with Su Rui. Lao Wang took the opportunity to rush the camel to come up, "What did you mutter to Xiao Su just now, huh?"

Zi Yang said: "I praise you for being sensible, capable, healthy and good-looking in front of the girl!"

Lao Wang said: "Is that so? What do Xiao Su think after hearing this?"

Zi Yang laughed and said, "Old Wang, Lao Wang, I like you so direct and you have no concealment of your dirty desires."

Lao Wang curled his lips and said, "Cao, do you think I don't know you are enjoying me? I've been leaving for a long time and I won't let my rest. I'm so sleepy, just chatting with you..."

Zi Yang looked at the watch. Under the cold moonlight, the fluorescent pointer of the watch was pointing at 23 o'clock. He was shocked. He didn't expect that he had been running for so long. This foreigner is working hard enough.

He immediately stepped forward and told Su Rui tactfully, is it time to take a break?

Su Rui nodded and said to Alexander. Alexander nodded in agreement. At that moment, everyone got off the camel, and Timur brought the camel together and formed a circle.

James took out a set of outdoor cooking utensils, cooked a pot of hot water, and then took out a pack of compressed food and shared it with everyone.

Lao Wang looked at the size of a gas pot and heated a large tank of water in a few minutes. He couldn't help but curiously said, "What's so high-end thing? Hey, can you use it as a lamp?"

Seeing James skillfully fiddling with the "gategories", Zi Yang was not only curious.

James explained to the two local buns in a muffled voice: "This is called an Alpine mini furnace. It uses special canned gas fuel, and is used for outdoor adventure. Its furnace head can boil a liter of water in 4 minutes. Look, in order to adapt to the outdoor climate and improve combustion efficiency, it is also specially equipped with a windshield and a heat reflector."

Lao Wang shouted over there again: "Look, look, hey, after twisting it twice, it turned into a lighting lamp!"

"Well, a set includes a stove and a lamp, and the flame system can be adjusted as well."

This old Wang is also familiar with James. After talking to him, the two started chatting with each other.

At this time, Zi Yang also took the initiative to show his goodwill to Alexander and help him set up a tent. After all, he still had to rely on their instruments and equipment along the way, and it would be no good for him to make a fuss.

Now everyone washed up briefly, replenished moisture and food, and set up three outdoor tents to fall asleep.

When Zi Yang was helping, he chatted with Alexander for a few words. He originally planned to get close to him, so he praised the tent as being very good. Unexpectedly, Alexander thought he was a talented student, so he seriously introduced the functions of this adventure tent to him.

The MSR tent they brought is very tough, with high safety and comfort. After people get in, they will not only keep warm and damp, but also prevent mosquitoes and snakes from entering.

Zi Yang saw this kind of tent in many adventure shows on TV. Whether it is ice, snow or harsh deserts, it is often used in many harsh places in the environment.

After asking, the price is indeed quite expensive. A tent like this can be worth the salary of many people in China for several months.

Zi Yang couldn't help but admire that the Mediterranean people compared to Alexander and others are like monkeys from the Stone Age. No wonder foreign science and technology have developed so fast in recent years. Anyone who has just a stove or a tent contains so many high-tech, which has been depriving you of the instruments and equipment for decades.

Zi Yang and Xiao Hei, Lao Wang slept in a three-person tent, Alexander and James slept in another one, Su Rui slept in the smallest single tent alone, Timur couldn't get used to this, so he slept in the floor with the camels.

After running around for a day, everyone was so tired that they fell asleep.

While asleep, Zi Yang suddenly felt his body being moved. When he opened his eyes, he suddenly floated in a bottomless abyss. It was pitch black and there was no light everywhere. There was no object around him, and it seemed to sink to the bottom of the sea thousands of meters.

Zi Yang shouted in horror, but found that there was no sound in his ears; his limbs were dancing around him, but he could not catch anything...

In the panic, Lao Wang woke up by kicking him. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was already dawn. Xiao Hei was squatting beside him and staring at him with relish.

Lao Wang leaned down beside him, his hair was messy like a feather duster, and he complained: "You are a person who is not honest when sleeping, and you touch me! I really didn't expect you to be such a person."

Zi Yang scratched her head and said, "Sorry, I'm under great pressure, I'm having a nightmare."

Lao Wang turned over and continued to sleep with his butt sticking out. Zi Yang crawled out of the tent and stretched. Seeing that it was already bright outside, he started washing up.

Fresh water in the desert is precious, and everyone doesn't know when it will be able to replenish the water, so they cherish it very much. Zi Yang used a towel to dip some water and touched her face. Then she took a small sip of water and brushed her teeth and rinsed her mouth, and glanced at Su Rui's tent at the corner of her eyes.

Su Rui slept alone in a small tent, a little far away from them (after all, they are girls, and some things are not very convenient). Zi Yang saw something squirming in the tent, and thought to himself that it was a girl who was spoiled and could not bear it. He probably had to sleep a little while still.

While he was brushing his mouth full of foam, he suddenly saw Su Rui turn out from behind a turtle next to the tent and said to him with a smile, "Are you getting up?"
