The tour guide also saw it and came over curiously.
"This...this doesn't look like an egg, this seems to be a fossil."
Fossil? Li Xiao picked it up and took a closer look. This thing is a fossil? It is quite strange.
But what Li Xiao cares about most now is whether the remaining egg can be eaten.
Fortunately, this egg is a normal egg and can be eaten.
Li Xiao took a bite and found that it was indeed quite fragrant, with a paste-like smell. The outermost layer of the egg white was a little burnt and dry, which was very tough and fragrant.
After lunch, the two of them walked around again.
In fact, there are no very beautiful scenery around here, there are only some strange hills and stones, but most of these stones have been blown into strange shapes by the wind, and some even look like the pyramids of Egypt.
After walking all afternoon, seeing the sun going down, the two of them discussed setting up a tent.
"Little brother, I brought a bag of noodles. Let's see what we can make to eat."
Li Xiao took a look and saw that it was the kind of cooked noodles that had been vacuumed. He happened to have a can of canned beef in his backpack.
"Brother, how much water do you still have?"
When the tour guide heard what Li Xiao said, he quickly brought a bottle of water over.
"I still have two bottles. If I leave tomorrow, that's enough."
Li Xiao nodded, still using the simple stove he made before, lit a fire, then put a bowl on it, boiled water, threw the noodles in and boiled it for a while, then poured the water into which the noodles had been cooked
Pour it out, add some cold water again, and try it again.
After draining the water, put canned beef inside.
Once mixed like this, it is also delicious and fragrant.
The tour guide nodded as he ate, "Sure enough, you must run the noodles through cold water after cooking, otherwise they won't taste strong."
Li Xiao nodded. Generally speaking, running the noodles through cold water after cooking will make them more elastic.
Li Xiao did not pour the water he just poured out on the ground, but into the water bottle.
The tour guide looked at the filled water bottle and was a little curious, "Little brother, why did you pour the water into this? It's okay to pour it on the ground, it will seep by itself."
He thought Li Xiao was used to living in a big city and couldn't pour water on the ground at will.
Li Xiao smiled and said, "Keep it for emergencies. It is always outside. If something unexpected happens, this may be a life-saving thing."
The tour guide nodded with a look of enlightenment. In fact, he didn't care at all. As long as they didn't deviate from the route and went down the mountain after sleeping, nothing would happen.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, a strong wind suddenly blew.
At first, both of them were sleeping, so deep in their sleep that they didn't pay attention.
It wasn't until the wind lifted up the sand that a large amount of sand was thrown on the tent. Li Xiao woke up and took a look outside. He saw that the strong wind in the distance was carrying yellow sand and was blowing this way.
Li Xiao was about to call the tour guide, but the tour guide woke up. He looked up and was almost frightened. He quickly put on his backpack and came out.
"Little brother! Let's hide quickly!"
Li Xiao nodded quickly. It would be strange if he was caught in this sandstorm and died.
The wind and sand were so heavy that people couldn't open their eyes. They could no longer tell the direction. They could only look at which side had bigger rocks that could cover the wind and sand, and then walked over.
Fortunately, they were lucky enough to find a "concave" shaped hill. They were right in that groove, with three convex sides that could block the wind and sand.
The tour guide looked at this strange place in front of him and was dumbfounded.
The sandstorm came and went quickly. The two of them had been waiting here for about ten minutes, and the sandstorm had subsided. At this time, the two of them looked outside and found that the tents and other things had disappeared.
I don't know if it was swept away or if they didn't see it.
Li Xiao looked at the tour guide, "Do you know where this is?"
The tour guide shook his head with a dull look on his face, and then took out a map from his jacket pocket, with a simple route map drawn on it.
Li Xiao took a look and saw nothing, "What is this for?"
The tour guide laughed awkwardly and said, "To be honest, little brother, this is my map to go up the mountain."
Li Xiao was stunned for a moment, "Haven't you been playing here since you were a child and still using maps?"
The tour guide almost cried.
"I, I played here when I was a kid, but that was only when I was very young. I can only go up the mountain because of this map."
Li Xiao was almost pissed off by him.
But now is not the time to quarrel, let's settle the matter first.
The wind and sand were so strong just now that they were blinded. When they walked, they didn't know which direction they were walking in. If they walked randomly, they would probably go further and further away.
The stones here all looked the same, and it was easy to get lost, so Li Xiao didn't dare to act rashly, but just observed them in place for a while.
At this time, the tour guide was following Li Xiao with a fawning look on his face, not daring to say anything, for fear that Li Xiao would leave him here again.
After watching for a while, he couldn't see anything. Li Xiao sighed. There was no signal in this place, so there was no way to call the police.
Li Xiao could only look at the tour guide again.
"If you find a place where we park, can you get out?"
When the tour guide heard this, he nodded quickly.
"It can, it can, it definitely can."
Li Xiao nodded, "Well, we just walked here, and we only walked for half an hour. On such a windy and sandy day, we can't walk very far. We just lost the direction. Let's go forward first."
.”
The tour guide was a little hesitant when he heard this, "But if we leave, how can we come back?"
Li Xiao couldn't help but feel grateful for his foresight at this time. Fortunately, he was afraid that something would happen, so he brought a climbing rope specially.
This is where it comes in handy.
Li Xiao tied the rope around his waist. The tour guide pulled the rope around Li Xiao and tied the other end of the rope to a big rock. The two of them walked straight forward, walking.
As he did so, Li Xiao suddenly noticed a light movement behind him.
When he turned around, the tour guide disappeared.
It's like disappearing into thin air.
Li Xiao couldn't help but feel a chill in his back when he saw this strange scene.
Just when Li Xiao was thinking about what to do, he suddenly found that the tour guide's voice came from somewhere.
"Little brother! Where are you!"
Li Xiao glanced around and saw no one at all.
"Little brother! Look down!"
under?
Li Xiao lowered his head subconsciously and saw that there was nothing on the ground. After he walked a few more steps, he saw that there was a big hole on the ground.
Li Xiao turned on the flashlight that came with his phone and looked down. He saw a platform about half way from the ground, which was made of earth and looked man-made.
"Little brother, see if there is any way you can pull me up!"
Li Xiao looked left and right. There were really no special tools around him. Only the climbing rope wrapped around his waist was still useful, but the climbing rope was just tied around his waist.
, no matter how you look at it, it’s not long enough.
Just when Li Xiao was about to stand up and walk around to see if he could find anything suitable, the sandstorm suddenly started blowing again.
Seeing this, Li Xiao could only quickly untie the climbing rope, then tie the rope to a crooked neck tree at the entrance of the cave, and jump directly down.
When the tour guide saw that Li Xiao had also come down, he was extremely anxious.
"Little brother, why did you come down here with me? If you can't save me, you can even go out and look for someone yourself."
Li Xiao could only smile bitterly, "Oh, there's nothing we can do. The sandstorm outside is coming again. If I don't come down, I'm afraid it can tear me in half with this rope."
The tour guide seemed to be frightened by Li Xiao, so he didn't speak again. After a while, he said: "Little brother, what should we do now?"
Li Xiao has no good solution now, he can only take one step at a time.
"Let's go down first. I think there should be a road inside. We definitely won't be able to go up, so let's go down."
The tour guide was not pretentious. When he heard what Li Xiao said, he jumped down first. Fortunately, it was not very high from the ground, so there was no accident.
"Little brother, my name is Zhang Dong. Just call me Brother Zhang. Our friendship can be considered a life-long friendship."
It was okay not to mention this thing, but Li Xiao got angry when he mentioned it. He also said that he was very familiar with this area, but in the end he only followed his crappy map. Once he deviated from the route, he didn't know anything, not even the sense of direction.
nothing.
"I'm not telling you, brother, you're not familiar with this place, why did you take this job?"
Zhang Dong laughed awkwardly, "I can't help it. My family's conditions are not good, my mother is sick again, and she has to take medicine every day, and the price you offered is high, so I agreed.
"
Li Xiao sighed, this is the end of the matter, and this is the only way it can be.
The two of them walked along the passage and saw a large door in front of them. It looked very much like an ancient palace door. It looked very heavy and complicated. Unfortunately, the door had a hole in the lower right corner and was damaged.
its integrity.
Zhang Dong took the lead and walked over, looked around the hole, and then looked back at Li Xiao.
"Little brother, this should be a tomb. This hole should be made by those tomb robbers."
This was Li Xiao's first time to visit such an ancient tomb, so he quickly walked over after hearing this.
"Brother Zhang, how did you figure it out?"
Zhang Dong laughed twice and said, "To be honest, I used to lead a group of tomb robbers and followed them down to the tomb."
After saying that, maybe because he was afraid that Li Xiao would think that he was a group of those who robbed the tomb, he added: "But don't get me wrong, I didn't know that they were robbing the tomb at the time, and I thought they were just normal tourists.
"
As he said that, Zhang Dong seemed to still have lingering fears, "They were still holding guns at that time, and they forced me to go to the grave with them. If I hadn't escaped quietly while they were busy, I would never have been able to come back."
Li Xiao never expected that such a coward and money-grubbing person would have such an experience, so he asked: "What happens next?"
Zhang Dong said "hurt", "I was timid and ran away without daring to call the police. But later, I heard that the police had been chasing them and they were caught as soon as they came out of the tomb.
.”
Hearing what Zhang Dong said, Li Xiao hesitated, "Then shall we go in? What if they don't leave?"
Zhang Dong pointed to the broken hole to Li Xiao, "Little brother, look, the fragments of this hole are all outside, so this hole must be the hole they used to get out."
Li Xiao's eyes lit up, "So, there must be holes inside that they dug when they came in!"
Zhang Dong nodded, "My opponent."
After saying this, Zhang Dong lit a cigarette and threw the cigarette in through the hole.
Li Xiao was a little confused, "Brother Zhang, what are you doing?"
Zhang Dong explained to him with a smile, "Normally speaking, before going down to the tomb, you would put a living animal in it, so that you can know whether there is oxygen inside. Although there is such a big hole here, it is always better to be safe."
Li Xiao nodded clearly, feeling that he had learned something.
After a while, seeing that the smoke was still burning normally, the two of them were ready to go in.
Before going in, Li Xiao took a photo inside with his cell phone.
As a result, as soon as the light shone inside, a black and very ferocious face suddenly appeared in front of them.
Zhang Dong stood closer to the front. He was ready to go in, but when he suddenly saw such a thing, he was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
Li Xiao was also frightened and stood there without daring to move.
Fortunately, the thing on the other side didn't move either.
After a while, Li Xiao saw that there was no response from the thing, so he shined the flashlight downward again and found that there was nothing underneath.
What the hell is this thing? It has no lower body and just a floating head?
When the light was swept upward, I could see that this thing was a mask, hanging above the entrance of the cave.
Zhang Dong also calmed down at this time, "Fuck, who is so wicked? Putting such a thing here scares me to death!"
Li Xiao also didn't understand why they hung this green-faced fanged mask here. Is it really just to scare people? So how do they know that someone will come here again?
After the two of them entered, they saw a twisted man hanging upside down on the door from an angle they couldn't see, with a mask rope tied around his neck.
Li Xiao and Zhang Dong groped forward in the darkness. Surprisingly, it was very empty inside, and they didn't know if everything had been moved away by the tomb robbers.
Just as Li Xiao was thinking this, something suddenly kicked under his feet.
The thing rolled forward in a gurgling motion.
Li Xiao was startled and stopped quickly. Some wanted to see what he had kicked, but then he remembered the mask, and some didn't dare to look forward.
Because of fear, the two of them actually didn't dare to look around, and kept focusing on the ground not far ahead.
"Brother Zhang, I seem to have kicked something."
Zhang Dong was also stunned, "Is there anything that hasn't been taken away?"
