Infinite Disaster Survival.

In that desolate gravel area, there are many isolated columnar rocks, which are different from the rocks we usually see. These columnar rocks have strange shapes, large at the top and small at the bottom, like huge mushrooms.

Therefore, this peculiar rock is called wind-eroded mushroom, also known as mushroom rock, which is an extremely rare natural landscape.

The formation of wind-eroded mushrooms is of course related to the wind. Layered rocks collapse during the weathering process. The softness and hardness of each layer of rocks are different, and the strength of the wind is also different. A mushroom shape with a large top and a small bottom.

This process takes hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of years to appear. It is a great miracle of nature, and it is a rare spectacle.

"Nature itself is the best sculptor. What a marvelous and spectacular sight."

"These mushrooms are really big. Now I have the material to tell stories to the children. Unfortunately, I don't have a camera to take pictures."

"Don't you dislike the same desert landscape this time?"

Huang Li smirked, looking at the spectacle in front of him in shock, his eyes full of amazement.

Wen Zheng and the others stayed here for a while, silently keeping this scene in their minds, and did not go down to take a closer look.

These wind-eroded mushrooms are not as small as real mushrooms. These rock-shaped mushrooms are extraordinarily tall, and because they have been subjected to long-term wind erosion, they are not particularly strong. Not so good.

After admiring these wind-eroded mushrooms, Wen Zheng and others left this special area and continued on the road.

In a blink of an eye, Wen Zheng and others walked for more than ten days after leaving the oasis. After passing through the area where the columnar rocks were located, the terrain around Wen Zheng changed from long yellow sand to a rocky desert with a large number of exposed rocks. Many exposed boulders.

In the state of saving as much as possible, there is about a quarter of the drinking water left, which is enough for them to go on for a few more days.

Wen Zheng silently counted the time in his heart, and suddenly remembered during a conversation with Professor Huang that the expedition team chose autumn when they came to this desert, that is, October, and now it will soon reach the end of November However, if the survival time given by the system is followed, they still need to spend December in the desert, which is winter when the nights are colder.

Although after meeting Wang Zhiyuan and Yang Liu, Wen Zheng had an extra thick coat that could keep him warm in the middle of the night, but it was really difficult to get through December safely.

There are too few materials that can be used in the desert. Now Wen Zheng hopes to meet some wild animals again and make a fur coat. If he can't, he can only kill camels.

While thinking about this problem, Wen Zheng looked up at the surrounding terrain, hoping to find edible plants or animals again.

Suddenly his gaze froze and stopped at a green low-lying terrain.

Wen Zheng squinted his eyes and looked carefully, and regretfully found that it was not like an oasis, but more like a saline-alkali land.

"Saline-alkali land? Brother Wen, how did you tell that it might be an oasis?" Huang Li yelled, with an excited smile on his face, and he was about to ride there on a camel.

Wen Zheng shook his head, pointed to the plants in the distance and said, "Those green and red succulent plants are called Salicornia, a very salt-tolerant plant that grows in saline-alkali soil."

The desert area does not mean that there has never been any water source. It may be a long time ago that the saline-alkali land was a lake. However, due to the expansion of the desert area, the decrease in precipitation and the increase in temperature due to the death of plants, the lake has no new water replenishment, and the original water has gradually returned. Evaporated, and finally the lake dried up and became a saline-alkali land with extremely high salt content.

Huang Li didn't know much about desert plants, but Wen Ge, who majored in biology, said so, so he was sure that it wasn't an oasis, and he immediately became depressed.

"The salt in the saline-alkali land is not edible, and we don't have the relevant equipment. Brother Wen, can this kind of salicornia be eaten?" Huang Lifa asked.

"The soil in the saline-alkali land is extremely salty, so it's not suitable for animals to live in. Only some mosquitoes live in it, and they like to live on the plants. We still have enough water and plants for a few days, but we still can't get through. Those mosquitoes are not good. Take precautions, you may also carry germs." Wen Zheng explained, dispelling Huang Li's notion that he wanted to go there.

Huang Li's depressed mood lasted until night. When the night fell and the temperature gradually dropped, they got off the camel's back and kept warm with the stones that had not dissipated and the body temperature of the camel.

After stepping on the ground, Huang Li greeted Wen Zheng and the others, and prepared to go to a distance to solve personal problems.

Wen Zheng and Professor Huang leaned on the camel, biting hard jerky in their mouths. Eating jerky every day during this time not only caused a bit of wear and tear on the teeth, but also caused gum pain from getting angry.

After eating the jerky, Wen Zheng picked up the water bottle and was about to drink a few sips when he heard Huang Li running back. Before he was worried about what happened to Huang Li, he heard him shouting in panic: "Wen Brother, I found a few bones that looked like human bones."

Wen Zheng and Professor Huang immediately stood up when they heard the words. Under the cold moonlight, Huang Li ran back with a face full of defeat.

A while later, Wen Zheng and the others led the camels to the area mentioned by Huang Li. On the ground with many rocks, beside a few rocks were a few bones that looked pale in the moonlight.

Among them was a skull, exactly what a human head should look like.

When seeing the bones of the same kind, both Professor Huang and Huang Li felt a little sad, but Wen Zheng remained calm and squatted in front of the skull to examine it carefully.

A piece of the hard skull was dented, and it looked like it was hit by a sharp blunt weapon, but when thinking about the scene when the skull was found, it was more like the person's head was hit hard on a stone.

"Is it possible that they encountered a sandstorm?" Wen Zheng muttered to himself. The sandstorm they encountered last time could uproot trees. If there were no camels, they might all be blown into the sky and land on the ground. Not sure where.

If it falls on the soft sand, it can still survive, but if it falls on these stones, it can only be seriously injured and killed.

"Sigh, who would have thought that there would be such a large amount of wind and sand in the desert in autumn." Professor Huang sighed, with a sad look in his eyes, "Let's find the other bones and bury them underground together."

"Okay." Wen Zheng had no objection, and the three of them started looking separately.

Not long after, Professor Huang took out a piece of cloth from a gap in a stone, and said, "I found a piece of cloth, and it hasn't dried and crumbled. This person shouldn't have died too long ago. Why are there only bones left?"

Wen Zheng sighed and said, "Maybe I encountered a beast."

If the bones in the desert are not buried in time, they are likely to be eaten by some beasts. This fact makes people feel sad.

After Wen Zheng found two thigh bones, he found a somewhat reflective object. After he dug the object out of the sand, he saw a bullet appearing.

"Bullet?" Huang Li, who was standing not far away, saw it and frowned suspiciously.

Professor Huang sighed, squeezed the cloth in his hand, and said slowly: "It may be a member of the rescue team. The color and type of this cloth match the clothes of the rescue team, and they entered the desert recently with a gun. It is probably a member of the rescue team. Come rescue our rescue team members."

It's just that they are still alive, but the rescue team was killed.

"How could it be? When the rescue team enters the desert, they will definitely come to us in a plane or car fully armed, and there will definitely be more than one person. Teacher, you guessed wrong." Huang Li said bitterly.

"What if the plane encounters a sandstorm?" Wen Zheng said indifferently. The plane suddenly encountered a sandstorm and was hit by the sandstorm before it could make an emergency landing.

These were all just their guesses. After a brief silence, Wen Zheng and the others used sharp stones to dig a hole beside an exposed rock and bury the collected bones in it.

After these things were done, the sky had become brighter, and there was not much drinking water left. Wen Zheng and the others did not dare to delay any longer, and took advantage of the cool morning to continue their journey.

Then they found evidence that could prove Wen Zheng's guess that afternoon. On a relatively low rock formation, there was a scorched and damaged plane wreckage there.

Walked in and looked at the situation, it looked like it crashed in the desert first, and then the plane exploded.

"Brother Wen, come and see, there is a sign here, is there someone alive?" Huang Li shouted anxiously, and Wen Zheng hurried over.

Indeed, on the north side of the plane, there was a mark pointing to the north. It seemed that the members of the rescue team who escaped from death also went to the northern plains. I don't know how many people survived.

There was nothing useful left in the wreckage of the plane, not even the wheels of the plane. Wen Zheng felt that they were being used by the surviving members of the rescue team.

It wasn't that no rescue was sent, but that the rescue team that entered the desert had an accident. After hearing the news, Wen Zheng didn't feel much, but Professor Huang and Huang Li's mood was extremely complicated, and they became reticent.

After walking like this for a few days, suddenly there was a chirping sound from the top of his head. Wen Zheng and Tuan Tuan were together in the last world, and he heard almost all the birds chirping.

When Wen Zheng heard it, he immediately remembered that it was a large bird of prey—vulture.When Wen Zheng raised his head and saw the black-brown bird figure with a protruding head, he became more certain.

The vulture mainly feeds on the carcasses of large animals and likes to move in open areas. Now it is circling in the sky in search of food.

Only when winter comes, vultures will occasionally come to desert or semi-desert areas. They like to live in places with abundant food. The moment Wen Zheng saw this vulture, he thought there should be a water source nearby. .

Wen Zheng took the lead to approach the place where the vultures were circling. The next day, Wen Zheng and others stood on a high rock formation, facing the huge cliff in front of them.

And the deep canyon below the cliff.

The desert area also has a variety of terrains. Among them, there is a kind of terrain distributed in all arid areas called deep cracked terrain. This terrain means that the soil here has been destroyed to form canyons.

Standing on the cliff and looking down, you can see the green growing in the canyon and the clear stream in the middle of the green.

Now, how to get down from the cliff has become the biggest problem.
