Chapter 48: Desert storm

　　Wang Zhengyi and Yin Tian got out of the car and found that the right front tire was punctured by a sharp slab and they were completely held back.
　　 The two were busy, changing their spare tires and moving on, but the road behind was even more difficult to reach the extreme. Even the Ford Raptor, a car with a strong off-road capability, almost crouched many times.
　　 In addition to avoiding the piles of sharp slabs on this road, we must also pay attention to the large and small bunkers. In addition, the uneven ground forms one after another cross axis, which seriously hinders the advancement of vehicles.
　　 The long wheelbase of the Ford Raptor turned into the biggest shortcoming here.
　　 In this way, suffering continued along the way. After three punctured tires, seven car traps, and countless underpins, the team barely got out of Longcheng Yadan.
　　 "Captain, we are running out of gasoline." Shang Tao's voice came from the intercom.
　　 "What?!" Wang Zheng was shocked and stepped on the brakes, pushed the car door and walked towards the back. Others followed when they saw it.
　　 "What's the matter? How can it be possible that the gasoline I prepared 1.5 times the actual distance is not enough?"
Shang Tao hurriedly explained: "Captain, our forward speed is really too slow. According to my estimation, the fuel consumption of these two vehicles has reached 22L per 100 kilometers, while our estimate is 15L per 100 kilometers, and it has detoured a lot. Road, so now gasoline consumption has exceeded half. And... two oil drums were damaged in the bumps, and all the gasoline ran out."
　　 "Damn!" Wang Zheng couldn't help but yelled.
　　 It's a leak in the house that rains overnight. They were already behind, but now they are experiencing a gasoline shortage.
　　 The scene fell silent all of a sudden. It was obviously unrealistic to go on foot, and if you forcibly drive past, you might not be able to return.
　　 "Actually, it is not impossible." Yin Tian walked over and said.
　　 "Brother Yin Tian has a way?" Wang Zheng's eyes lit up when he heard Yin Tian speak.
　　 Yin Tian nodded and said, "We can give up a car and add all the gasoline to a car, so the battery life should be no problem."
Snapped!
　　Wang Zhengyi happily patted his palm, and said excitedly: "Yes, there are only seven of us. If we give up some unnecessary salutes, a car will be fine."
　　 Hu Hai also nodded and said, "Yin Tian is right. Shang Tao and I can sit in the carriage. It should not be far from the destination and it can be supported."
　　 "Brother Wang, I suggest that you prepare for the hike. You have seen the road conditions here. Maybe you won't be able to drive anymore." Yin Tian said again.
He had just looked at the surrounding environment through the system's holographic map, and found that the outside of the ancient city of Loulan was actually covered with winding sand dunes, and it can be seen from the wind and sand that there should have been a lot of blows there. wind.
　　 "Yin Tian is right. The periphery of Loulan is covered with sand dunes and quicksand. The car will definitely not get in. We can only walk over the last 10 kilometers." Lin Xian also confirmed Yin Tian's words.
　　 After listening, everyone nodded, knowing that the last part of the road must be on foot, which is a big challenge for everyone.
　　In the end, a Ford Raptor was abandoned here, and many unnecessary equipment, such as tents, broken tires, and empty oil drums, were also thrown here.
　　 Then 7 people took a car and traveled 30 kilometers without risk. There is only the last 10 kilometers away from the ancient city of Loulan.
　　 In the front, a long sand dune blocked the way, two motorcycles that were willing to be faintly visible in front of them, they must be left by foreigners who came here illegally.
　　Since two-wheeled motorcycles can't make it through, it's even more impossible for a heavy guy like the Ford Raptor to pass.
　　 Everyone walked out of the car and found that every step of the way they would sink their feet into the sand for four to five centimeters. This also shows that this dune was formed recently and is a ‘living dune’ that is constantly moving with the wind.
"Everyone come here and prepare to go on foot. There is a marching backpack behind the carriage, and each person should prepare water and food for at least three days." Wang Zhengyi said: "Fang Yun, you take the first aid kit, Shang Tao, you take the explosives. ."
　　 Everyone got busy after listening. Hu Hai opened all the boxes, and then sent everyone a marching bag.
　　 Yin Tian also took a marching bag and began to install it, but most of what he installed was water and food.
The water in the desert is the most important thing, so Yin Tian filled 30 bottles of mineral water, which should be enough for him. In addition, he also filled a bunch of compressed biscuits and beef jerky, as for those canned fruits that are too bulky. I didn't take anything like that.
　　 In addition, he took an engineer shovel and hung it on one side of the rucksack, tied a bundle of rope to the other side, and put all the other windbreakers, hats and masks on him.
　　 Type 92 pistol, two spare magazines and military daggers were firmly inserted into the belt by him to fix them firmly. After everyone was packed, the remaining hundreds of pistol bullets were also stuffed into his pockets.
　　 After installing all this, Yin Tian woke up the army bag and found that the weight was about 30 kilograms, which was not too heavy for him.
　　 Soon, everyone was ready, one by one was fully armed, carrying a bulging rucksack, only two women took less.
　　 "Everyone is ready, let's go!"
　　 Everyone nodded and followed Wang Zhengyi forward.
　　 Yin Tian walked to Lin Xian, took off her backpack, and carried it on himself.
　　 "Lin Xian, you haven't recovered yet, let me hold it for you."
　　 "But..."
　　 "Is there anything, I am very strong, you have to give me a chance to show me a gentleman." Yin Tian said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
　　 Lin Xian hesitated for a moment, and nodded in agreement. She also knew that her physical stamina was weak, and she would not be strong in this kind of thing.
　　 Soon, the group of people began to climb up before they came to the sand dunes. The sand here is softer, and every step on it will sink into the ankle.
　　 And the steepness of this dune is far beyond imagination~EbookFREE.me~ Yin Tian estimates that the steepest place is close to 40°, and everyone can only climb up with both hands and feet.
　　 "Come, take my hand!" Yin Tian said to Lin Xian.
　　 Lin Xian was panting at this moment, seeing Yin Tian approaching and grabbing quickly, and then he was pulled up a steep slope.
"I said Yin Tian, ​​your kid can't forget your old love when you have a new love. Sister, I'm almost exhausted, and I haven't seen you help me." Fang Yun saw that only Lin Xian was in Yin Tian's eyes and couldn't help but complain. .
　　Yin Tian hadn't spoken yet, Zhou Hongyu beside Fang Yun did.
　　 "Sister Fang Yun, I'll pull you!"
　　 Fang Yun was angry. Hearing Zhou Hongyu's words seemed to have a place to vent, she furiously said: "Who is your eldest sister! Your whole family is eldest sister, am I so old?"
　　 Zhou Hongyu looked at Fang Yun’s appearance and shrank his head in fright and climbed up. He hated himself for being talkative, and was indignant in his heart. The same man, how could he be treated so much worse than Yin Tian!
　　 Seeing this, Yin Tian stretched out his hand helplessly and grabbed Fang Yun. The latter's face immediately turned dark. After being pulled up by Yin Tian, ​​he threw the medicine box behind him to him.
　　 Yin Tian didn't say much about it, just a medicine box less than 10 kilograms, meaningless.
　　The high temperature of the desert made a group of people sweat, everyone was drinking water, but they still couldn't stop the feeling of extreme thirst.
　　 An hour later, seeing the highest point of the dune right in front of them, they only had to climb the downhill road behind them to save effort.
　　 But at this moment, a khaki wall suddenly appeared from the other side of the hill, and then soared upright, instantly rising a hundred or ten meters, and at the same time, the sound of "whooping" wind came into everyone's ears.
　　 "No, it's a desert storm!"
