Chapter 287 A Journey in the Desert
Under the expectant eyes of Yoshioka Xiong and Liu Guanjiao, Chen Ziyang pressed his bloody finger on the bloody diamond.The reason why he dared to do this was because Chen Ziyang felt that since the key had completely turned the color of blood, it meant that the key had been fully unlocked.So he felt that there should be no such thing as the last time that the key almost sucked himself up.Moreover, Chen Ziyang also wanted to see what kind of surprises this diamond could give him. After all, in his own impression, this diamond was really amazing.

Under Yoshioka Yu's instruction, the short woman standing aside had already prepared first aid equipment, and at the same time she took out a bag of plasma in her hand.In case something like the last time really happened again, Chen Ziyang's life could be saved in the first place. After all, according to Chen Ziyang's current situation, such a thing as using blood to stimulate diamonds can only happen once. up.

In this way, ten eyes of the five people were all staring at Chen Ziyang's right thumb and the diamond. The moment the two came into contact, the others took a deep breath involuntarily nervously.

"Puff...Puff..." A strange sound came out at the moment when Chen Ziyang's right thumb touched the diamond. Everyone was stunned, not understanding why the diamond made such a sound.At the same time, a stench accompanied by this sound instantly filled the small compartment space.

The stench was so bad that everyone sniffed, especially the female team doctor, who directly covered her mouth and nose with her hand, held her breath, and showed a very disgusted look. A tasteful expression.

Chen Ziyang felt a little strange, this diamond gave too many surprises.The diamond can not only project a map on the wall, but now it can even emit sounds and smells, but I don't know what these sounds and smells mean.

But at this moment, Yang Lei's words made the others dumbfounded. "That... I'm sorry, I've been a little too tired recently, and I have a bad stomach. I farted just now, which made everyone laugh..."

Hearing Yang Lei's words, Chen Ziyang, who was already physically exhausted, felt his eyes darken, and almost passed out in the carriage.It's not good for Yang Lei to fart at any time, he insisted on doing it when so much attention and so nervous.Yoshioka Xiong and Instructor Liu were also very angry. Just now, they were so nervous that sweat dripped from their foreheads. They even forgot to be angry with him because of Yang Lei's fuss.

Yang Lei, who made this big joke, not only didn't feel embarrassed, but put on a big pale face, and looked at everyone arrogantly, as if to say, how can a person not fart , do you need to make such a fuss?And your farts may not be as loud as mine.

After shaking his head helplessly, Chen Ziyang continued to stare at the diamond that was in contact with the wound on his thumb.But so long has passed.This diamond didn't respond at all, could it be that my method was wrong?But apart from this method, I really don't know what to do.

At this time, the careful Chen Ziyang suddenly discovered an abnormal phenomenon.Under the sunlight projected from the gaps in the canvas into the dim compartment, the dust in the compartment has been flying.Chen Ziyang found that in the beam of light closest to the diamond, the dust was flying strangely, as if it was circling around the diamond.

This discovery made Chen Ziyang's eyes light up, and he immediately remembered what Lao Lu said before.After the diamond touched the soil on the ground, the soil around the diamond automatically avoided it, so that a deep well was formed on the ground.At this time, the way the dust is flying is very strange. Although it looks like it is revolving around the diamond, none of the dust is approaching the diamond, as if they are deliberately avoiding the diamond. Same.

After thinking for a while, Chen Ziyang roughly guessed the reason.Then he quickly asked Yang Lei to help him, and came to the outside of the carriage.After spending a lot of effort to get outside, Chen Ziyang was already sweating profusely, but he didn't care about resting due to exhaustion, so he found a piece of sand and put the diamond on it.

Seeing that the diamond did not respond after it came into contact with the sand, Chen Ziyang squeezed out a few drops of blood from the wound on his right hand and dripped it on the diamond.At the moment when the blood came into contact with the diamond, a surprising scene happened.

All five people around the diamond saw that the moment Chen Ziyang's blood dripped on the diamond, the sand in contact with the diamond changed color.The color of the sand slowly turned from yellow to black, as if a black shadow emerged from the diamond.

But after looking carefully for a while, these people discovered that these black things were not shadows, but the sand close to the diamond had become wet, and the color of the wet sand gradually deepened, as if water had flowed from it. A diamond popped out of it, soaking the surrounding sand.

Immediately afterwards, some clear water gushed out from under the place where the diamonds were in contact with the sand.But the flow of this clear water is very small, it looks like a child peeing.This amount of water is incomparable to what Chen Ziyang heard from Lao Lu before when a large amount of water gushed out from the deep well formed by diamonds and submerged the tomb. Now Chen Ziyang can't understand whether it is Lao Lu who is exaggerating. Or the diamond's mana has been weakened.

Fortunately, this diamond has changed, Chen Ziyang let out a sigh of relief, a change is better than no change, this proves that he is still somewhat useful.But it is not known what relationship the outflow of these waters has with the direction the water flow will indicate.

The amount of water gushing from under the diamond was not great, and the flow was not very urgent.But people around the diamond found that although there were more than one streams of water gushing out from around the diamond, they all flowed in the same direction.Moreover, these waters still flow to high places at the same time.

The sandy land Chen Ziyang chose was not too flat, with one side high and one side low.Moreover, the height difference is very obvious, even with the naked eye, it can be easily distinguished.

Everyone can see that after the water flows out of the diamond out of thin air, it seems to be drawn by an invisible force, and it flows out along the relatively high place of the sandy land.

But at this time, no one cares about this.After all, it is not uncommon for water to flow to high places now.This diamond was able to produce clear water out of thin air after it came into contact with the sand in the desert. This alone was enough to surprise everyone.

Taking out the GPS device, Instructor Liu carefully compared the direction of the water flow, and at the same time carefully recorded the direction of the water flow, and then he blurted out: "Clear springs are like water, guiding the way forward, so it is so, so it turns out that this sentence is actually That’s what I mean, I finally understand, I finally understand!”

However, Instructor Liu who said this sentence inadvertently reacted suddenly.He looked around at several people around him.Fortunately, Yoshioka Yuu, this person doesn't understand Chinese at all, and he didn't show any distaste for the secrets that instructor Liu inadvertently leaked.It is very likely that he has no idea what instructor Liu said.And the female team doctor was still expressionless, as if she wasn't touched by what instructor Liu said.

Chen Ziyang didn't react too much, because after this big meal, his state of mind had changed, and his physical strength was at the limit.The injury to his left arm made Chen Ziyang very uncomfortable and painful. He didn't have the heart to worry about other things at all.But Yang Lei, who was idle by the side, kept staring at Instructor Liu and the others with bright eyes.

Seeing Yang Lei's gaze, Instructor Liu gave Yang Lei a blank look, and glared at him fiercely.That meaning seemed to mean that if Yang Lei dared to reveal the secret of the diamond, then he would definitely take him down.

Under the vicious gaze of Instructor Liu, Yang Lei could only cough a few times, turned his head in another direction, and tried to keep his gaze away from Instructor Liu.At the same time, he whistled casually, pretending that he didn't hear what Instructor Liu said at all.

Although Chen Ziyang was resting with his eyes closed, as if he didn't hear what instructor Liu said just now, but at this moment, Chen Ziyang's heart was disturbed.Instructor Liu and the others really had a deep research on this diamond, and from what Instructor Liu said, they should have known a set of formulas, and this formula should be the method to manipulate this diamond.

But Chen Ziyang knew that even if he asked Instructor Liu and the others for this formula, these people would not give it to him.So simply, Chen Ziyang pretended not to hear what Instructor Liu said, but he kept these words in his heart.

At the same time, he carefully calculated in his heart how he could find a way to get the formula for operating this diamond. After all, this was directly related to whether his left arm could return to normal.

After having a specific direction, Yoshioka Yu urged the team members to have breakfast quickly, and then the team drove towards the direction of the water.

While the convoy was moving, Chen Ziyang had been thinking carefully about the difference between the diamond under Lao Lu's and his own.Why did the outflow of water decrease after the diamond got close to the location of the ancient country? Could this diamond be able to sense the location of the ancient country?

Although it is said that the water flowing from the diamond guides the direction of the convoy, it does not point out the specific distance from the ancient country at all. If you follow this direction, how can you know that you have reached the site of the ancient country?
This is a desert, a desert in the true sense, and the area of ​​the desert is very large.The terrain in the desert is ever-changing. After every big sandstorm, almost all the dunes will move and change their appearance.This has both disadvantages and advantages, that is, it is very likely that some buildings buried under the wind and sand will be seen again.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang remembered the formula that Instructor Liu said unintentionally.According to his guess, it is very likely that there are a few sentences behind this formula that are specifically used to point out the location of the ancient country ruins.

However, in this boundless desert, there are no reference objects available at all, and all reference objects are moving. How can they determine the location of the ancient country?

Just as Chen Ziyang was thinking about this series of things, the team stopped again.And this time, Yoshioka Yuu ordered everyone to rest in place, and the convoy would not move forward for the time being, which was beyond Chen Ziyang's expectation.

What Yoshioka Yuo lacks most now is time, but why should he waste precious time at this time?Moreover, Yang Lei saw from the gaps in the canvas that Yoshioka Yuki and Instructor Liu were not busy with the others as usual, but were enjoying the cool in the shadow of a temporary tent. Very comfortable.

After telling Chen Ziyang about this matter, Chen Ziyang couldn't figure it out even more. At such an urgent moment, these two people were still chatting leisurely there.But then he felt that something was wrong. Yushioka Yu and Instructor Liu should be waiting, as if this ancient country would not appear in the daytime.

The whole afternoon was wasted in vain by the two of them.The temperature difference in the desert is very large. When the sun goes down, the temperature drops suddenly.But different from the daytime, at this time, Yoshioka Yu and Instructor Liu became busy instead.

The two drove a multi-purpose off-road vehicle to a high ground of a sand dune, and then stood on the roof of the vehicle, holding some equipment that looked like a sextant, and carefully measured the stars in the sky .Seeing this, Chen Ziyang slapped his forehead suddenly and realized.

It turned out that these two boys were not wasting time before, they were waiting for the dark, after dark, the stars would appear, in this desert without any light interference, the stars in the sky looked very many, and very bright.

In the desert with no reference, if you can use something to determine the position of an object, you can only rely on the stars as a reference. It seems that the part after the formula should be about using the position of these stars to determine the ancient country. method of location.

This knowledge is not Chen Ziyang's strong point, and he is not able to see anything through the stars in the sky, but watching the two people in the distance pointing at the starry sky with seriousness, Chen Ziyang discovered that the instructor Liu There is also research on astrology.
