Early the next morning, Han Jiulin and Ye Zhaoling had just finished their morning training when Ye Zhaoling received a call from the captain of the southern Xinjiang search team.
"Guardian, something happened. Xiang Shaofeng and others who fell into the ancient city yesterday and found the three-color seven-star grass suddenly lost contact last night. As of this morning, they can't be contacted. It's very possible that they... were killed!"
"What!" Ye Zhaoling's expression changed drastically.
Han Jiulin, who was walking in front, suddenly turned back and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Something happened." Ye Zhaoling relayed the matter to Han Jiulin with a solemn expression.
"Losing contact doesn't mean you're in trouble. There's no news, but sometimes it's the best news!"
Han Jiulin said in a deep voice: "Assign people to search and rescue immediately!"
Ye Zhaoling said: "The entire southern Xinjiang search team has gathered at the place where Xiang Shaofeng and the others fell into the ancient city. However, the hole they fell into has been buried by the sand. For a while, it was difficult to even find the entrance. The ancient city is so large.
It is extremely large, making it difficult for search and rescue operations to be carried out effectively."
Han Jiulin frowned and pondered for three seconds, then suddenly said: "Prepare the plane now, I will go there myself!"
Ye Zhaoling nodded and immediately called to give instructions.
Whether it is the three-color seven-star grass or the lives of several northern warriors such as Xiang Shaofeng, they are the top priority. In such a situation, all efforts must be made to search and rescue. As a strong man in the divine realm, Han Jiulin went there in person
, which can somewhat increase the hope of search and rescue.
At this time, every second counts!
Moreover, Ye Zhaoling knew that Xiang Shaofeng, a soldier, had a deep comradeship with Han Jiulin. If something happened to him, Han Jiulin could not just sit idly by and ignore it.
You know, seven years ago, when Han Jiulin first entered the northern war zone, Xiang Shaofeng was Han Jiulin's squad leader.
Although Han Jiulin was quickly promoted later, among the soldiers in the northern theater, Xiang Shaofeng has always been Han Jiulin's old squad leader and his closest comrade!
After Han Jiulin went home and changed his clothes, before Yang Xiaomi, Ye Shanshan and others got up, he called Hu She, explained a few words, and left in the car with Ye Zhaoling.
Zunwei drove Han Jiulin all the way to a guarded area in the northern suburbs of the capital, where a combat-ready private plane was ready.
"Your Majesty!"
"Lord War Lord!"
The combatants and aircraft pilots in the security area all bowed and saluted Han Jiulin in turn.
"Yeah!" Han Jiulin nodded slightly, passed by these people, quickly boarded the plane, and ordered without looking back: "Save all unnecessary steps and hurry up and take off!"
Three minutes later, the plane left the ground and headed west quickly.
In the center of the Tarim Basin in southern Xinjiang, the Taklimakan Desert is the largest desert in China and the tenth largest desert in the world.
The name "Taklamakan", in the understanding of local people, is composed of two words: "Taklamakan" and "Makan".
Among them, "Takla" means "underground" and "below".
"Magan" means "field", "home", "living place", etc.
Combined, Taklimakan means "underground city" or "there is a city underground".
Taklimakan has a glorious history and culture. The ancient Silk Road passed through the entire southern end of Taklimakan, as well as the ancient city ruins of Jingjue, Mi and Huo among the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions.
It can be said that there is ancient Silk Road culture here, as well as the history of the ancient countries in the Western Regions that has yet to be discovered.
Because of this, the search team sent by Han Jiulin to look for the three-color seven-star grass decided to search here as a direction.
The team that came to the Taklimakan Desert to search this time included a total of ninety northern warriors, led by Lan Yanbin, who served as the deputy leader of the northern theater group.
Their ninety warriors would gather together every evening to take a rest. After dawn, they would be divided into teams of three to disperse and search at a newly determined radius every day.
Just yesterday, the search team consisting of Xiang Shaofeng, Liao Ziqiang, and Ding Anping accidentally fell into the ruins of an underground thousand-year-old city during the search.
Because of the quicksand, they were unable to return the same way they came, so they had to find a new way out in the underground ancient city.
However, by chance, the three-color seven-star grass was found in the underground ancient city!
Immediately, Xiang Shaofeng took a photo of the grass and sent it to Lan Yanbin. Lan Yanbin forwarded the picture to Ye Zhaoling and reported the news, while gathering everyone and leading the team in the direction of Xiang Shaofeng.
However, not long after, Xiang Shaofeng and the others seemed to have encountered some danger underground, and they lost contact with Lan Yanbin.
Since then, communication has been directly interrupted, and Lan Yanbin can no longer contact Xiang Shaofeng and others.
Although it is autumn, during the day in Taklimakan, the sun is still scorching, the silver sand is dazzling, and the sand surface temperature is as high as over 50 degrees.
In the autumn here, the temperature difference is huge, reaching more than 40 degrees. After the cold last night, the morning sun makes the whole body comfortable, but at this time, the heat is already unbearable.
However, Lan Yanbin and other northern warriors have undergone arduous training in severe cold and heat, and they are not affected by some external environmental factors here.
However, at this time, they clearly knew that their three comrades were at their feet, but they could not find a way down, which made everyone extremely anxious and frustrated!
"38 degrees north latitude, 83 degrees east longitude, 9.3 kilometers away from the radius of yesterday's exploration area... this is it. The coordinates Xiang Shaofeng provided me are correct!"
A burly man with short hair wearing a combat uniform, holding a dashboard in his hand, looked at the dashboard and the surrounding environment from time to time, as if he was possessed, and kept mumbling.
This man looked dark-skinned at this time, his hair and face were covered with sand, his mouth was chapped, his skin was dry, and he looked anxious.
And around him, there were eighty or ninety men in the same clothes, all covered with sand and soil. They looked no better than this strong man. They were all scattered around, looking back and forth for something, and they were constantly shoveling and digging.
Tragedy.
Not far from these people, there were more than a dozen Jeep off-road vehicles and dozens of camels.
These people are the northern warriors who came to the Taklimakan Desert to look for the three-color seven-star grass.
The burly man with a short head is none other than the deputy commander of the northern war zone and the captain of the southern border search team, Lan Yanbin.
But here, apart from the northern soldiers, jeeps, and camels, there was only a man who looked to be in his forties or fifty with a leather jacket tied around his waist, a towel wrapped around his head, and a smoking pot in his mouth.
This man was sitting next to the camels, smoking a pot and watching Lan Yanbin and others busy.
After a long time, the man finally couldn't stand it anymore and said loudly with a thick accent: "Captain Lan, I advise you not to bother, you are doing completely useless work!"
