Buckton Lin took the lead and walked to the front of the team, and when he was about 10 meters away from the scientific expedition team, he pressed the wireless Bluetooth headset: "Everyone be careful, we have just detonated the grenade, which may attract more unknown creatures to attack, we must be vigilant." ”

The reason why Bucton Lin wanted to remind him of this matter in the headset was for fear of arousing the fear of the scientific expedition team, after all, the scientific expedition team is a scholar, no more than the Black Mamba, who have all experienced artillery fire or bloodshed, and the psychological quality of the scientists must be far worse, if they are let go through fear again, the team will be chaotic, so this matter only needs to be known by the Black Mamba Escort itself.

Before setting off again, several members of the Black Mamba Escort team dug a hole a little further from the shore with a sapper shovel and carried Professor Li Sanming's assistant into it to fill it.

Professor Li Sanming held the body of his assistant at first and refused to let go, Bucton Lin did a lot of work, "Professor, let's mourn and change, we are ready to sacrifice when we come here, you, your teammates, me and our Black Mamba team members, everyone knows that this line of work is extremely dangerous, we are all mentally prepared, maybe your assistant just walked a few days, or a few hours, or even a few minutes before us, so, you don't have to be too sad, let's go, stay here again, it may cause more trouble." ”

Finally, Professor Li Sanming put down the body of his assistant and let the Black Mamba Escort bury the body in the soil, and finally, he knelt next to the small mound and said sadly: "Subset, you can go with peace of mind, if I can go back alive, I will use your name to set up a fund to train more outstanding young people like you for the geological cause......"

Pang Xiaonan helped Li Sanming up, and the scientific expedition team started the journey again.

In fact, Professor Li Sanming had experienced the loss of his teammates in the field before, but this time it came too quickly, and he died in pain in front of him, and the death was still very cruel, so he was a little too sad.

However, Professor Li Sanming quickly adjusted his mentality, and walked energetically without Pang Xiaonan's support.

"Professor, let's talk about something happy. Pang Xiaonan was with Li Sanming, and the death of Li Sanming's assistant made him feel a little guilty, in the final analysis, it was he who did not do a good job of safety protection.

"Okay, what's fun about you, let's hear about it. Professor Li Sanming turned his head with a smile on his face, as if he had been released from the feeling of losing his beloved disciple.

"This ......" Pang Xiaonan scratched his head and asked him to talk about happy things, which seemed to be a little difficult for him, because he didn't seem to have anything unhappy.

"You're a college student, you won't even have happy things, right?" Li Sanming enlightened Pang Xiaonan in turn, "For example, you got a scholarship, oh, you're only a freshman, like falling in love, to be honest, how many girlfriends have you made?"

Li Sanming's expression was ambiguous, and he squeezed his eyebrows, as if he was the handsome guy who dominated the college campus.

"This, hehe," Pang Xiaonan was a little embarrassed, "I don't have a girlfriend yet." ”

"Impossible, with your charm, how can you not have a girlfriend?" Li Sanming doesn't believe Pang Xiaonan, Pang Xiaonan's body has a charm that makes people spontaneously close, not to mention Pang Xiaonan's skills, it is Pang Xiaonan's kind of affinity, there will be girls who come up.

But Pang Xiaonan is always not good at boasting, saying that there are a few girls around him who have a good impression of him, but he can't bear to start, he diverts the topic and says, "Professor, I've just gone to college, it's normal to have no girlfriend, there will definitely be one in the future, tell me about you, what happy things do you have to remember?"

"I, there are a lot of things to be happy about," Li Sanming looked at the tall trees in the distance and smacked his lips, "There are a lot of happy stories I heard, so let's tell you a story......

Many years ago, an expedition of 10 Chinese entered the heart of the Kandahar Desert, but soon they were in distress in quicksand and storms. When the rescue team arrived, eight explorers had lost their lives in the sandy sea, and only one couple was still alive. Qiao Yuqi is the only woman on the team, and her lover is not the strongest team member, why did they get away with it?

The 32-year-old PhD student in geology has always had a strong yearning for the Taklamalitai Plateau, located in the heart of the Kandahar Desert, and he and eight adventure enthusiasts formed an expedition team and decided to travel to the Kandahar Desert.

Qiao Yuqi is a master's student in the university's Department of Literature, and she is a girl with thick black hair. She met and fell in love with him two years ago on a trip to Borneo, and she also loves to explore the primitive and mysterious civilization of Borneo.

However, after listening to his adventurous plan, Qiao Yuqi tried his best to stop it, and he hugged her tightly: "My dear, when I come back from the desert, we will get married, and I will guard you every day and not go anywhere." Qiao Yuqi said, "If you must go, I will go with you." "That's not going to work, all the members of the desert expedition are young and strong men. "It's better to be by your side every day than to go crazy at home. Under Qiao Yuqi's repeated pleading, he finally agreed to take her with him.

After a month of preparation, the 10 expedition members gathered in the small town of Birma, located on the border with Borneo. Bierma was the starting point of the ancient Tuare camel trade route. From there, the expedition will pass through the Tenele Desert, the most dangerous of the Kandahar Deserts, and finally reach the bazaar in the town of Agadez. This treacherous 560-kilometre desert road is home to countless wonders and the only tree in the desert, the Love Tree.

For the trip, the group bought a full set of travel gear and food, and rented two off-road vehicles. "This road was once conquered by camel caravans, and our car is equipped with a GPS positioning system, so we will definitely be able to reach our destination smoothly!"

After leaving Bilma, the buggy quickly drove into an endless golden world. The Kandahar Desert is so tranquil. Three days later, an orange wilted tree stood straight in front of them. "Behold, the tree of love. This means that we have entered Tenele and completed the 7-day journey of the camel caravan. The teammates jumped and laughed excitedly.

He pulled Qiao Yuqi to the bottom of the tree: "My dear, let this tree witness our love." They prayed devoutly.

Kandahar is not only beautiful and romantic, but also guards its territory with its scorching sun, temperatures of up to 53°C and storms that can come at any time, testing every creature who dares to attack.

For the first few days, the two off-road vehicles were left on with the air conditioning on. Johnson, a mechanical engineer from Zhongdu, said: "Our trip will last at least another week, and if the air conditioning continues to be turned on, the gasoline will be consumed too quickly, and it will be difficult to guarantee that we will be able to last until the end." He heeded Johnson's advice and asked the players to only turn on the air conditioning at midday, when it was hottest.

The closer you get to the heart of the desert, the more difficult it becomes, and the cars often get stuck and you brave the heat to push them out of the soft bunkers. In just 6 days, most of the drinking water has been consumed. Compared with other teammates, the petite Qiao Yuqi is more seriously dehydrated. After several days of long journeys, everyone was tired. In order to escape the scorching heat, he suggested that from the ninth day onwards, it would be changed to day and night. On the same day, everyone dug a sand pit in the shade of the sand dunes early and set up a small tent with canvas. Qiao Yuqi and he lay in a small tent with each other, and the silence of the desert allowed them to hear each other's heartbeats and breathing clearly.

After a day of rest, the players recovered a lot. As the night began in the Kandahar desert, they set out on their journey again. The temperature drops to 4°C at night, and although it is not as scorching as during the day, the sea of sand shrouded in night is even more unpredictable. At around two o'clock in the morning the next day, the off-road vehicle had just driven into a sand dune area, and suddenly the wheels slipped and could not move forward.

He and his teammates got out of the car to check. Little by little, the grains of sand slipped under their feet, and he shouted, "No, it's quicksand." "However, an even greater catastrophe followed. In the blink of an eye, Kandahar changed from a gentle woman to a violent woman. The wind blew, and a huge storm swept through the sky, and everyone struggled to stand still. Under the double attack of the storm and quicksand, the off-road vehicle sank deeper and deeper. In a panic, he pulled Qiao Yuqi and stumbled down the sand dune. They clung to each other and hugged each other tightly.

I don't know how long it took for the storm to subside. He and Qiao Yuqi shook off the yellow sand on their bodies and stood up, calling out the names of each of their teammates. Ten minutes later, a small sandbag began to squirm, and the tall Arthur stood up with the sand in his mouth, and then 6 more teammates appeared, but the erudite mechanic Johnson never appeared. Everyone kept shouting, and the only thing that responded to them was the silence of the desert death.

Everyone understands that Johnson will never be able to leave this beautiful and violent land again, and everyone's heart is heavy. The sun was slowly rising over the horizon, and when everyone saw the situation, fear replaced the joy of surviving death – the buggy was gone, and everyone had only a bottle or two of drinking water and a small amount of food. Arthur began to cry, his nervousness and despair affected everyone's mood, and everyone became manic and sad.

He didn't expect this situation at all, and after a few minutes, he stood up: "We have to find a shady place and wait, there are still 3 days before the end of the trip, when the friend who greeted us will know that we are missing and notify the search and rescue department to come and look for us." ”

Arthur said, "Your decision is ridiculous. We only had this little water and food, and even if they found us three days later, we would be dying of thirst and starvation. He and Arthur had their own opinions, and Arthur finally decided to move on while the temperature was not too high. The other four team members hesitated, still thinking that it was more reasonable to take the initiative to save themselves, and they followed Arthur out of the habitat.

By his side, only Qiao Yuqi and two other extremely tired teammates Alan and Alexie were left. Looking at his teammates who were staggering away, he was very sad. "Qiao Yuqi, do you think my decision is the right one? Do you believe me?" Qiao Yuqi buried her face in his chest: "I believe that you have learned a lot of knowledge about desert self-rescue, and I am willing to accompany you." ”

Except for a small amount of water and food, he and the others only had clothes on their bodies, and nothing could put up a conspicuous distress sign on the sand sea. Qiao Yuqi slowly took off her red long-sleeved shirt and handed it to him, her actions stunned the three men. In the scorching desert, taking off her top not only embarrassed her, but also caused the moisture in her skin to evaporate faster. "Qiao Yuqi, it's dangerous for you to do this. "No, if this eye-catching dress is useful, all 4 of us can be rescued, it's worth it. Qiao Yuqi was very resolute.

He tore off the sleeves of his shirt and used strips of cloth to connect the two pieces of cloth and cover Qiao Yuqi's body. "My dear, let's share the sunshine together. The three men climbed up the dunes with the red coat in their hands, tore the clothes apart, spread them out as far as they could, and found a few more rocks to hold the clothes down.

Lying in a sand pit in the shadows, they can only drink a few sips of water and eat a small packet of food every day, waiting for rescue in their torment. Four days passed, the water and food were gone, and the desert was still dead. The two team members couldn't stand it anymore, they crawled to him and Qiao Yuqi and sobbed: "Are we going to die, how long do we have to wait, can we still leave alive......"

"It's going to be fine, believe me, you have to lie quietly, knowing that sadness and crying will make you even more tired. He did his best to comfort his teammates, but the horror and despair of death looming on them made them go berserk, cursing and crying loudly.

Six days passed, and Alan and Alexei cursed occasionally at first, but then they were no longer silent. He and Qiao Yuqi were also extremely weak, and they kept leaning against each other face to face. "How happy it is to be able to kiss you when I open my eyes. Qiao Yuqi said.

On the afternoon of the seventh day, he suddenly shouted: "Qiao Yuqi, look, it's an oasis, it's the sea." Qiao Yuqi's consciousness was clear, she knew that it was the burning heat and thirst that caused him to hallucinate, and she kissed and comforted him over and over again. When he had calmed down, she scrambled to her feet, digging around diligently, finding and collecting the hairy roots of the desert plants that stretched deep into the depths, rubbing them vigorously, and then carefully feeding them into his mouth.

Even though there was only a little bit of moisture and nutrients in these hair roots, it still allowed him to recover his strength. The next morning, he gradually came to his senses. Qiao Yuqi was exhausted and leaned weakly in his arms. As the sun rose higher and higher, they seemed to feel that life was slowly leaving their bodies. He cupped Qiao Yuqi's cheek: "My dear, maybe we really can't wait for the rescue team to arrive, are you afraid?" "Don't be afraid." If I had to face death, this might be my favorite way to lie in your arms and die. Qiao Yuqi said slowly, her voice getting smaller and smaller, and her eyes gradually became dim......

"Qiao Yuqi!" he kept calling softly, but Qiao Yuqi didn't respond. He hugged his limp lover, kissed her lips affectionately, and sucked gently. He wants to use a loving kiss to hold Qiao Yuqi's floating life and wake her up, even if that day is the end of the years and the earth is desolate. This lingering kiss lasted for a long time...... Dusk is approaching, and the sun is kissing the horizon affectionately. He seemed to see that in this dazzling orange red, Qiao Yuqi, who was dressed in a white wedding dress, stood on tiptoe lightly, kissed him sweetly, and slowly closed his eyes happily.

More than an hour later, a joint search and rescue team consisting of Hua and Borneo arrived, and a search and rescue worker saw a small red dot in the binoculars. It turned out that his expedition failed to arrive at the agreed time, and the local tourism agency in charge of the reception realized that there might be danger, reported the case to the police in time, and got in touch with Hua Guo. The search and rescue team searched the Tuareg camel trade route for five days, and with the guidance of the red suit, they found the place where he and others lived.

When people saw him and Qiao Yuqi, they couldn't help but burst into tears, they were silent, but they still maintained a kissing posture. "Carry it away, it's also a comfort that the lovers can die like this. But when they picked him up and Qiao Yuqi, a miracle happened: the two of them still maintained their body temperature and weak heartbeat, and there was still a trace of breath between their mouths and noses. "God, they're alive!"

He and Qiao Yuqi were lifted into the off-road vehicle, and the doctors accompanying the team immediately rescued them. Just then, another search and rescue convoy called, and they found five bodies 3 kilometers away, none other than Arthur and four other expedition members. After examination, the time of their death was about 5 days ago.

That night, he and Qiao Yuqi began to moan softly. The next morning, he opened his eyes first: "Qiao Yuqi......" He called weakly. Qiao Yuqi, who was lying on the bed next to her, still hadn't woken up, but her lover's call made her mood change, and she frowned as if she was trying to open her eyes. Finally, a ray of light penetrated her eyes through the slightly open slit: "Honey, I'm here ......"

Under the careful treatment of the doctors, the lovers' bodies recovered little by little. More than two months later, they returned to China and held a grand wedding. Despite the makeup artist's best efforts, the sunburn on Qiao Yuqi's face was still clearly visible. He kissed those brown scars: "My dear, no matter what disasters will happen in the future, we will not be separated, I want to kiss you until I get old......"

Dr. Campyron, who was in charge of the treatment, had been puzzled by the reasons why the young men had escaped death: Doctors had been unable to understand why the young men had survived in the scorching desert for up to three days under extreme water shortages, and that the eight young and strong men who had traveled with them had all died in the sand.

A few months later, a shocking study appeared: it was the lovers' lingering kiss when they were on the verge that gave them a precious chance to survive.

Among the various ways in which the human body consumes water, "respiratory loss" accounts for a large proportion. Qiao Yuqi and he waited for rescue for several days, sticking to each other face to face and even kissing for a long time, and most of the moist air exhaled by both sides formed a moist environment around their mouths and noses, and was inhaled by each other.

As a result, the two of them lost much less water from their breathing than the other team members, thus gaining time to be rescued. In addition, a loving kiss produces a hormone in the brain that can cause pleasure, resulting in feelings of happiness, pleasure, calmness, and relaxation. It is this hormone that makes Qiao Yuqi and him maintain a peaceful state of mind in the face of terrible disasters, reduce unnecessary restlessness and despair, and minimize the consumption of energy and water. It was the affectionate kiss that saved the lovers, allowing them to master the "life-saving trick" and escape the clutches of death. What really created this miracle was boiling love.

At the end, Professor Li Sanming's face was filled with happiness.

"He's you, Professor. "Pang Xiaonan is not stupid, he can tell the story so wonderfully, the storyteller must be an immersive person, but 8 of the 10 expedition members died, leaving only 1 man and 1 woman, obviously, Li Sanming is the only man who survives, that is, he in Li Sanming's mouth.

Professor Li Sanming turned his head and said with a smile: "That's right, he is me, I am him, I have told this story to many people, and every time I tell it, it can make me feel better." ”

Such an unforgettable love story will certainly make people happy, especially if it happens to themselves. Pang Xiaonan has also experienced life and death with his lover and understands this emotion.

"Any time you don't abandon or give up on the people around you, miracles can happen. Professor Li Sanming stopped and turned his head in the direction of burying his assistant, "Just now my assistant was poisoned by an arrow frog, the reason why I am a little angry with Nandegrad is because he is indifferent to death, maybe he will try to rescue him, maybe he will take my assistant back from the hands of death?"

Professor Li Sanming walked forward again, turned sideways and said to Pang Xiaonan: "But then I thought about it, this can't be blamed Nandegrad, he is an experienced doctor, who can rescue and who can't, he can see at a glance, besides, this is a place with a bad environment, and many necessary rescue conditions are not available, so I shouldn't blame him." ”

Pang Xiaonan pushed aside a bunch of long herbs, "He will understand you, whoever loses relatives and friends will have emotional out-of-control times, it's normal." ”

BridgeMorgan and his assistant walked in the middle of the line, and the assistant stole to Bridgemorgan and said, "Boss, do you want to put that on?" and he pointed to the large box on his back.

From the moment he set foot on New Bloss, BridgeMorgan's assistant had been carrying a large box on his back, and looking at the size and the difficulty of his steps, he knew that it was a heavy item.

Bridgemorgan frowned, shook his head, and said, "Wait, the current environment is not needed yet." ”

"But we've already died," the assistant was a little anxious, "the environment here is harsh, it has exceeded our imagination, if we don't strengthen protection, I'm afraid of ......"

BridgeMorgan glared at the assistant and said, "What are you panicking about! A manly man must be calm when he does things!"

"Okay, boss, listen to you. The assistant stopped talking, and continued to walk with the heavy box on his back.

Wu Zhen, who was walking at the back of the group, looked behind him from time to time with a machine gun in case a monster followed, but fortunately, he didn't find any danger approaching all the way.

"Strange, how do I feel that someone is following me?" Uzhen is a particularly experienced jungle special forces, who used to carry out missions in the primeval jungle of the Hallelujah continent, as if he was familiar with it in his own home, but these animals he encountered this time were a little beyond his imagination, there were too many strange things in this jungle.

From the moment they entered the jungle of New Bloss, Wu Zhen had a feeling that their every move was under the surveillance of others, and every danger they encountered seemed to be directed and commanded by someone, and the rhythm was well grasped.

"How is it possible? These animals are all inferior animals with no intelligence, how can they be instructed by others?" Wu Zhen rubbed his temples and rubbed his eyeballs again, "Mom, haven't you slept well these days and are hallucinating." ”

After walking for about half an hour, everyone felt very tired. The road on this shore is much more difficult to walk than on flat land, because the soil is a little soft, and you have to worry about any unknown creatures in the grass, so you have to worry about walking all the way, and it is naturally slow and tiring.

"First mate, look at the direction, have we moved a little distance into the new blos?" called Buchton Lin towards Buenovski.

"Captain, the direction we walked along the river has not changed, and now we are still standing still, not going a little deeper into it. Buenovski, who was in the middle of the team, replied loudly, in fact, he had a direction to observe all the way.

Buktonlin frowned, looked up at Buenolski again, and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Sure!" replied Buenovski loudly, looking at his watch to the sun as he watched his watch face the way, and could not be mistaken.

If there is a high mountain on the edge of New Bloss, there happens to be a lake on the high mountain, and the lake flows down from the mountain to form this river, and this river crosses the whole of New Bloss, then the expedition team will never be able to enter the hinterland of New Bloss.

This is in the Bloss Circle, and nothing can be inferred by common sense.

"Rest in place, everybody!" Bucton Lin ordered, and he had to stop and think about how to solve the current problem.

"Pang Xiaonan! Wu Zhen! You two come here, the other members of the Black Mamba Escort Team, put martial law on the spot!" Bucton Lin brought two subordinates over, just to study the countermeasures.

"Wu Zhen, do you think we should cross the river or continue to walk up the river bank?" Wu Zhen and Buckton Lin have many years of combat friendship, and as combat officers, they also have a lot of experience on the spot, so Buck Donlin is inclined to consult Wu Zhen's opinion as soon as possible.

Wu Zhen hung the machine gun on his shoulder, touched his chin and said: "I think, let's cross the river, walking along the riverbank, it may not be safe, didn't we just get attacked by frogs?

Bucton Lin looked at Pang Xiaonan again, "Pang Xiaonan, do you think we should cross the river, or continue to walk along the riverbank." ”

Pang Xiaonan's eyes were flat, he didn't think about it, and said: "Since Buenolski said that we have not entered the hinterland of New Bloss, then we should not go along the riverbank." We're here to find out the secrets of New Bloss, and if it's just for safety, then we might as well stay at home, and we've sacrificed a man now......"

"Pang Xiaonan is right," Wu Zhen interrupted Pang Xiaonan, "What are we doing here for comfort, since we are here, don't be afraid of death, the first one to die, even if a few more deaths, we must find our goal, I don't care what the purpose of the scientific expedition team is, the spirit of our Black Mamba is to sacrifice ourselves to protect the employer and ensure that the employer achieves its goal." ”

"Then according to your opinion, we will cross the river?" Bucton Lin looked at Wu Zhen and then at Pang Xiaonan, wanting to finally confirm the opinions of the two people, and also to strengthen his inner decision.

"Yes, cross the river. Pang Xiaonan and Wu Zhen spoke in unison, and at this time, Buctonlin finally made up his mind.

"Alright, then we'll cross the river," Bucton Lynn said, looking at the lush flowers and trees on the other side of the river, and his heart was full of anticipation, "but tell me, how do you cross the river?"

Yes, everyone knows that the best option is to cross the river, but how to do it is a difficult problem.
