Ji Feng suddenly said, she followed me.

I said, "But you didn't raise your hand."

Monsoon said: "I hope you change your mind."

I said, "You think I'm wrong, too?"

Monsoon said: "You are wrong to go back the same way."

I said, "Well, since you chose to follow me, I won't say too much. I just want to say one thing to you - whether you think my choice is wrong or not, your choice is right. Let's get out of the car and say hello to them, and we're back."

I got out of the car and said to everyone: "Monsoon follows me."

Linghu Mountain looked at the monsoon and suddenly said, "I'll go with the monsoon."

I was startled and said quickly: "No!"

Linghu Shan said: "You won't let it?"

I said, "After dawn, they will kill each other, only you can stop them!"

Bai Xinxin said: "Don't make up horror stories, it's the same as the truth! Let me tell you, whoever Linghushan likes to follow, we don't need him!"

Linghu Shan said: "Boss Zhou, I will tell you with certainty where the monsoon is, I am where."

If Linghu Mountain is not in their team, then it will change what will happen today. Will they not go out of the infinite loop? Or will they be corpses everywhere?

I lowered my head and thought for a long time, but I couldn't figure it out any more.

I said, "I'll say it again. If you keep going, you will be in big trouble. Now it's your last chance."

Bubu said: "Boss Zhou, we will never go back no matter what."

I looked at the other people, and everyone was silent.

I said, "Well, I just hope you remember that after dawn, you will approach a sand slope and be sure to bypass it."

Bai Xinxin said: "Everyone is gone! It will be dawn later!"

After saying that, he took Jiang Mengxi into the RV.

Bubu said: "Boss Zhou, I'll share things for you."

I drove the off-roader next to the truck and loaded with enough gas, food and water.

When we break up, we hug each other and say goodbye.

Meng Xiaoshuai actually cried. She hugged me hard and said tremblingly: "Peace all the way."

I said, "So too."

Wu Min shook my hand heavily: "What are I doing wrong? How can you forgive me?"

I said, "Protect Xiaoshuai well. I hope you can catch her."

Wu Min whispered: "It's inevitable to win."

Zhang Hui hugged me and whispered: "I'm not by your side anymore, take care of myself."

I said, "Take care too."

Zhou Zhidan held hands with me and said with a smile: "When we all go out, don't forget to continue looking for the limbs of the earth!"

I smiled and said, "It must."

Bubu and I hugged, their eyes wet: "Thank you for so many days..."

I said, "Go out and see you!"

She nodded vigorously: "Go out and see you!"

Wei Zao held hands with me and said, "Boss Zhou, why don't you drive another car? If it goes wrong, it will be troublesome."

I said, "No, God bless you. Thank you."

Huang Xi and I held hands: "Boss Zhou, the journey is smooth!"

I said, "After going out, learn a few more harmonica songs."

He smiled: "I don't know the principles."

Guo Mei was the last hugged me: "Uncle, I will miss you very much!"

I said, "You are so beautiful."

Then, Bubu and the others got into the car separately. Zhou Zhidan's car drove away, Huang Xi's car drove away, Bai Xinxin's RV drove away, Bubu's car drove away, Wei Zao's car drove away, Wu Min's car drove away...

Four-eyed followed them too.

The desert is boundless and dark, and their headlights are getting farther and smaller, as if they have penetrated into the depths of unknowable fate and finally can't see it...

We don't have any communication equipment, and as long as we disappear from each other's vision, we will never encounter each other again.

A burst of soreness appeared in my heart.

Now, there are only three of us left.

Ji Feng said: "Just now, that Pawan looked at me from the car window, his eyes were very cold..."

I said, "Maybe it's because we broke some sort of foregone conclusion."

Monsoon said: "Next, where will we go?"

To be honest, what I'm doing is just to escape the death of Monsoon, and I don't know what to do next.

I thought about it and said, "Let's go back to Yu Chunshun's cemetery first, and then continue walking eastward."

Monsoon said: "Why not face west?"

I said: "To the west is the Taklamakan Desert, with more than 300,000 square kilometers."

We returned along the same route, and after dawn, we finally saw Yu Chunshun’s tomb.

Thank goodness, today is cloudy and the heat is gone!

In fact, it is meaningless for us to return to Yu Chunshun’s cemetery. This tombstone just makes people feel more at ease. It tells us that we are in reality.

The three of us ate something quickly, then set up a tent, planned to rest for an hour or two, and continue walking.

We couldn't sleep and chatted in the tent.

Monsoon said: "I don't understand. Lop Nur was such a big lake, but why did it become such a terrifying salt crust?"

I said: "Humans continue to pour into the west, and the population on both sides of the Tarim River has surged. Reclaiming arable land requires water, and mining mineral deposits requires water. So people desperately ask for water from the Tarim River, blindly build reservoirs to intercept water, blindly dig embankments to dig water, blindly build pump stations to pump water, just like countless vampires, finally draining the Tarim River. Lop Nur, whose water was broken, immediately turned into a dead lake."

Monsoon said: "It's human problem again!"

I said, "I have a guess..."

Both Ji Feng and Linghu Mountain were watching me.

I said, "Some of us died, some of us did it by our own people, and some of us were done by the tomb man. I don't know whether the aliens and the earth-hearted babies are friendly or hostile to us. No matter what, every time a person dies, a flower carved from sand appears next to him. What do you think is going on?"

Monsoon shook his head.

Linghu Shan also shook his head.

I said, "I think it is nature that punishes us. Nature, if you love it, it is God. If you ruin it, it is a demon..."

Both Ji Feng and Linghu Mountain were silent.

After a long time, Ji Feng said, "Boss Zhou, do you think the three of us can go out?"

I said, "I don't know."

Ji Feng looked at Linghu Mountain and said, "If we can't get out, I will go home with you."

Linghu Shan shook his head and said, "You won't like my family."

Monsoon said: "Why?"

Linghu Shan said for a long time: "For you, our lifestyle is terrifying..."

Monsoon said: "What a horrible method?"

This sentence touched the bottom line of Linghu Mountain again, and he did not explain.

Ji Feng said, "Humans are too selfish and there is nothing to nostalgic for." Then, she looked at me and said, "Boss Zhou, if you are desperate, you can go with me."

I said, "What is my identity?"

Ji Feng said, "My mother's eldest brother."

I shook my head and said, "I would rather die than live underground for the rest of my life."

Linghu Mountain looked at me, and his eyes were very complicated.

I said to him: "Linghu Mountain, since you don't know how to get out, then, how did you appear on the edge of Lop Nur before you joined the team?"

Linghu Mountain said: "Someone sent me to that place."

I said, "Who?"

Linghu Mountain said: "Our people."
