The groom held the iron chain in his hand and walked forward like walking on thin ice.

The man and woman looked at him with breath behind her back.

He was about to walk to the end, and suddenly there was a loud "click" sound, and the iron chain on one side broke, and the bridge deck suddenly became vertical, and he fell into the water with a "thump".

The woman screamed.

The groom struggled to escape, glanced at the woman, and then sank again...

He can't swim.

The groom died, he broke a certain rule, and the man and woman left - they miraculously found a leather raft behind the old building, and they used it to cross the river with difficulty.

The two of them drove the groom's car, galloped on the asphalt road, and rushed back to the city. Along the way, both of them were silent. The woman was crying while driving.

The man wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know what to say.

Suddenly, the woman stopped the car and said, "We have to go back and save him..."

The man whispered, "He is dead..."

The woman turned her head and looked at him, saying word by word: "Let's go along time."

Seeing that I stopped talking for a long time, Ji Feng asked, "Is it over?"

I said, "It's over."

She said: "A touching story."

I said, "I don't say it to touch you."

Monsoon said, "Oh, by the way, I still don't understand why you changed your mind and brought me?"

I said, "Don't you think today is too long?"

Ji Feng was too smart and she immediately widened her eyes.

I said, "I am becoming more and more sure that the stories I have written are presented in my life..."

Monsoon said: "You mean, we're... repeating?"

I said, "Yes."

Monsoon said: "When did it start? After entering Lop Nur?"

I shook my head and said, "I guess it should have started from leaving that barracks. Every repetition is exactly the same - I came to look for the 'chessboard' alone, but I couldn't find it. After dark, we continued to walk, returned to that camp and continued to set off..."

Monsoon said: "So, you brought me..."

I said, "Don't worry, it has changed now."

Monsoon said: "Are you sure?"

I said, "I'm not sure."

The sand was soft and I hung the lowest gear. The accelerator almost stepped on the bottom. The off-road vehicle was like a cow that was almost exhausted. It pulled a huge car, bowed its head and howled, moving forward step by step with difficulty.

Even though I turned on the air conditioner, the cab was still stuffy and hard to deal with. I kept wiping the sweat on my face with a towel, and I was still sweating profusely.

While telling stories to Monsoon, I bypassed the sand slope far away.

It took about an hour before we approached the earthen platforms.

Although we don’t have a navigation device, I remember the approximate terrain that this earth platform should be Longcheng, which is located in the lower reaches of the Peacock River, and the Yadan area of ​​the Loulan Ancient City, covers an area of ​​about 1,800 square kilometers.

After we approached it, the yellow sand and broken moraine were everywhere, and the off-road vehicles could no longer move forward.

I stopped the car, put the navigation instrument in my pocket, and then carried the engineer shovel toward the earthen platform.

The scorching sun shone on her head and her hair was burning. The monsoon was wearing a parasol and she opened it, with a moving shadow on her head, which was a little more comfortable.

We searched for a long time in the maze-like Yadan. I climbed up and down many times, but I didn't see cracks similar to words on any earth platform.

I was a little depressed.

"If we can't find it, will we continue to repeat it?"

I said, "We have discovered this bug and should be cracked."

Monsoon is a little pessimistic: "Impossible..."

I said, "Would you be more active?"

Ji Feng said: "I think we will return to that barracks and start from scratch. At that time, we did not have the memory we are now, everything was cleared, we didn't realize anything at all, and we would still drive forward stupidly and finally see the terrified slope..."

I said, "It seems that you have to find that 'chessboard' to change all this."

Then, I continued to walk towards the depths of Yadan with the monsoon.

Just after walking a few dozen meters, I saw 5 cylindrical earth platforms, arranged very neatly.

There are 5 earth platforms opposite them that can be easily climbed up. But I can't see anything at the top.

I said, "These are very similar..."

Ji Feng said: "I should go to the car and get another engineer shovel!"

I said, "This place is easy to get lost, you can't leave me at all."

These earthen platforms are as high as three floors. I finally climbed up after climbing 6 floors.

Sure enough, I found that "chessboard"!

Opposite me are: gold, wood, earth, water, fire...

Under my feet are: wood, earth, water, fire, gold...

My heart was beating wildly. Maybe, at this moment, my heart rhythm reached 1,000 times per minute!

If Zhou Zhidan’s method is correct, then as long as I change the “chess piece”, we will get rid of the space and time of circles and return to reality from nightmare!

However, these "characters" are several meters long. The soil layer at the top of the soil platform has been exposed to many years of wind and sun exposure. It is extremely hard. If you want to fill them in and then dig the pen again, it is a huge project.

But now I can't go back and call people, and I can't guarantee that I can find them when I come back.

This Yadan area is too large. We accidentally discovered these "chess pieces". It is also unfathomable here. The earth platform is extremely similar. When two people come in, they may not be able to find each other when they turn around...

Ji Feng shouted below: "Boss Zhou, how about it?"

The wind was strong on the earthen platform, and her voice seemed very small.

I shouted to the bottom: "Finished! Find a shade, don't walk around, wait for me!"

I've started working.

After I filled in the cracks on the first soil platform, I was a little nervous.

It was originally a word "wood", but now I want to change it to a word "earth". Last time, we just changed one word, which caused a sandstorm. I don't know what will happen this time.

I carefully dug out the word "soil". I dug it very shallowly, and it can even be said that it was just a few shovel marks.

The sky is still clear and the sun is still vicious.

The invisible opponent was silent and stared at my every move in unknown space.

I climbed down from the first dirt platform, and the monsoon was indeed standing in the shade.

She said: "Changed?"

I said, "I changed the first one."

She handed me the water and said, "Drink some water."

I took it, drank a bottle of "gudugudu", and immediately climbed onto the second earthen platform.

As I worked hard, I found some tricks. I didn’t fill all the deep grooves in the past. I used some of their strokes to save much effort.

When I finished changing the fourth word, I rested with Monsoon for a while.

Monsoon squinted his eyes and looked at the sun in the sky, saying, "Did you find that the sun seems to have stopped..."

I said, "Time is still stretching."

Monsoon said, "You take a break, I'll go."

I said, "No, it's your body. If you get heatstroke after going up, you'll feel dizzy and fall down, you won't die."

I didn't expect that this was the last sentence I said to Monsoon.

I really, very, very regretful, why do I have to put the word "death" in the last sentence!

It took me more than 3 hours to change the "chess piece" under my feet to - earth, water, fire, gold, and wood.

After I finished modifying the last "chess piece", I stood up and looked around. The world was quiet, and only the sound of the wind was whistling.

Suddenly, the navigator in my pocket rang out, "Didi!" That was the prompt tone for it to start working!

I was dizzy and almost fell off the earth platform.

I gently took out the navigator from my pocket and looked at it. It was back to normal!

The locator shows that we are located on the north bank of Lop Nur, Bailongdui Yadan!

I quickly climbed down from the earth platform and shouted: "Monsoon! The navigation device can be used!"
