() Found the way home!

It took an hour and a half to drive, the first hour was the road, and the second half hour was on the Gobi Desert. It was dark and the lights were so dark that Ye Liuxi recognized the way... Although he was winding around, he really never walked back.

Ye Liuxi stopped the car.

Changdong then got off the car. The desert was very cold at night. He subconsciously pulled up his half-open coat, and there was a layer of sand under his feet, which was not thick. If he stepped on it, he could feel the hard soil layer of the Gobi below.

This is the outer periphery of the desert, and the sand is brought from the desert by strong winds. Day after day, when it is blocked, sand dunes will also form.

Ye Liuxi asked him to follow him, and he had to walk for a while. Neither of them lit up the flashlight: in the dark night, his eyes would see further after adapting to the natural light.

There is a moon in the sky, half-curved, occasionally passing by a few dry but dead camel thorns. The thorny shadows are projected on the ground by the moonlight and are shaking by the wind.

Ye Liuxi stopped on a sand slope and stretched out his finger not far ahead: "Look."

Looking at the outline, it is a black squid, half a person tall, and a short wall.

"The rammed earth, the cultural protection unit has visited it and said that it may be the wall of a certain post station in ancient times, but only this side is left, incomplete, and nothing was dug nearby. In addition, the transportation is inconvenient, so it was left like this."

"Just let me see the wall?"

Ye Liuxi pointed to a short distance behind the wall: "Of course not, have you seen that tree?"

I saw it, there were only one tree alone, with a silhouette sticking to the cobalt blue sky.

Changdong recognized it as a poplar tree and a dead poplar tree. Because of its miserable posture, it is hard to describe it... There are also large areas of dead poplar trees near the ruins of Heishui City. In local legends, it was transformed from the unjust souls of soldiers who died tragically. Each tree is the posture of a creature in hell on earth.

So no matter how the spirit of poplar is sung, or what is "born but not dead for a thousand years, die but not fall for a thousand years, and immortal for a thousand years", Changdong has always been unable to like poplar. The twisted and struggling image of the withered poplar always reminds him of words like "dead and unwind".

"Look at the tree?"

"Not that, you are standing in the wrong position, so you have to move a little more."

She picked up the fabric of Changdong's clothes on his shoulder, led him to the side for a step or two, and then helped him move the angle: "Look at it now."

The eyes are slightly numb on Changdong's scalp.

It is a rope cover hanging on a tree, depending on the height, size of the ring, and it is used for hanging.

Late at night, in the wilderness, abandoned ancient post stations, dead trees, hanging rope covers... At present, there is only one hanged ghost.

Changdong quietly hung the handle of the chisel tied in his sleeve into his palm.

Ye Liuxi asked him: "Have you ever had a nightmare?"

“Did it.”

Ye Liuxi said: "Once, I had a nightmare... I listened, I will start with this dream."

"In my dream, I am not old, eleven or twelve years old, hiding in a water tank in the corner of the wall, with a cover on the tank, with a gap of the tank with a gap of the tank, and firewood was piled outside the tank. I looked out through the gap between the teeth and firewood."

"It was night, and the wooden door was blown around by the wind. The house was very simple, and fire was created in the middle of the house, very strong. Mars were arched by heat and flew around in the air."

"Next to the fire, there was a man sitting, eating people, making a crunching sound."

"I kept staring at it and suddenly I found that the man was holding a cigarette with a filter in his mouth. The one used to eat was not his mouth."

She signaled her nose above: "To be precise, at this position, there is still a mouth that is wide open. People are almost eaten, and their feet are left exposed. As the chewing movements are shaking up and down, they are wearing rubber shoes on their feet, and the shoelaces are a little loose."

"As soon as the shoes were about to fall, the man swallowed them all, even his shoes and feet."

"After eating, he burped, his face twisted and deformed, and his mouth became smaller and smaller. Then I realized that what he used to eat people was one of his eyes."

"The eyes were red, like flesh and blood were mixed in. Then, he took a kettle beside him and walked towards the water tank. He probably ate too dry and wanted to drink water..."

Speaking of this, she let out a long sigh and patted her heart with her hand: "I was so scared that I woke up all of a sudden."

Is this awake? Does this dream have anything to do with what he cares about?

Ye Liuxi seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, so she raised her hand and slowly pointed to the rope hanging on the tree.

From this perspective, the half-crescent moon crawled into the rope cover and crawled into a mouth full of food and drink.

"When I woke up, I hung it in that rope cover."

Changdong asked coldly: "Isn't dead?"

Ye Liuxi giggled: "Why don't you expect people to be good at all? If I hang myself, wouldn't the person who talks to you now be a ghost? How scary... The rope condom is a dead knot. I struggled a few times and then fell to the ground."

"Then, I try to recall the causes and consequences..."

Changdong felt that it was not good: Generally, in this case, combined with the context, she probably would have lost her memory.

"I found that there were large pieces of jagged blanks in my memory."

Changdong almost laughed. It was not easy. For the first time in two years, he wanted to laugh: "You have lost a memory, but you still have a shape?"

Ye Liuxi said: "I'm not called amnesia. I remember many things... I remember that I purchased goods from some local merchants more than once, including Dunhuang, Jiayuguan, Jiuquan, and the farthest I have been to Zhangye. I bought a variety of things, including shoes, clothes, discs, books, and celebrity posters... Every time, after driving a truck into the Gobi, there is no further information."

"But I don't remember the most critical things, such as where I was born, where I grew up, family, friends, whom I was, who hung me on the rope... I don't remember."

"How to say, if the memory is a piece of paper, mine seems to have been torn apart. I either remember the first half or the second half, or remember the more or less, as if I had been gnawed by a dog."

Changdong summed up: "In other words, you just forgot everything I want to know. Is that what I mean?"

Ye Liuxi sighed: "When you say this, it seems like I deliberately chose something you are interested in and lost my memory... But it's about the same, that's it."

The first time I heard that I could still pinch my length and lose my memory. Chang Dong let his face look ugly and had no intention of covering up his emotions.

This was as expected by Ye Liuxi: "It's not over yet. I'll draw a conclusion after listening to it... I looked around and there was a bag under the tree, with a black one-shoulder. Do you still remember it? I carved it when I went to see your shadow puppet."

"The bag is quite heavy, there are some things inside. I took out a flashlight and shone it around me, and found that there were no footprints on the sand."

"I saw a film camera in my bag again..."

Changdong's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he finally heard something related to the photo.

"The Haiou brand is a more commonly used camera brand in China in the 1980s and 1990s. It contains a roll of film... Kong Yang's photos were washed out of the film."

"There is something even more strange. It is an agate cup with a whole piece of carved carved and a golden hat. It is already very valuable in terms of material. Not to mention that later I discovered that there is also one in Shaanxi, which is also a treasure of the museum. This time I went to Xi'an, I specially found an antique shop to help me out. The age of this thing is at least from the Tang Dynasty or the past..."

Changdong interrupted her: "When did this happen?"

"More than a year ago?"

"A little over a year ago, you only came to investigate it now?"

Ye Liuxi sneered: "Changdong, are you not full or warm in food, and are you thinking about exploring the mysteries of the universe?"

"I am a down-to-earth person. My secrets cannot fly, but people will starve to death. Besides, knowing the truth is to eat, drink, defecate and urinate for a day, and I don't know that it is also to eat, drink, defecate and urinate for a day. Why are you anxious?"

She stretched out her hand and pointed at the way she came: "I put on my bag and walked in that direction. When it was almost dawn, I arrived at a town and it was the flag... Next, you almost knew about it, it was just trying to support yourself first."

"Sell melons?"

"Yes, it's the fastest way to get started in business."

“Sell barbecue too?”

"Melons are not long all year round. When I have free time, I will certainly sell something else."

"Where is that skinny?"

Ye Liuxi was a little surprised: "You know all this?"

She leaned against the wall of half of the rammed earth and really admitted everything: "Make money, those ladies don't have any sense of safety. They walk around in the dark alley in the middle of the night. If I don't follow me, I will follow me sooner or later... Isn't this great? They are safe and I make money, and the security in the Banner Town is good. Isn't it my credit?"

"After saving a little money, I went to find the merchants I had dealt with."

They remembered her and greeted her enthusiastically, Miss Ye, you haven't been here for a while.

Ye Liuxi had dinner with them several times, pushed the cups, and made some things happen in his words.

...Ms. Ye is happy in business and generous in his actions. Unlike some people, he always has to pay a price of one or two yuan, and he is stingy!

...Miss Ye comes alone every time, and I am still worried about you. She is so beautiful and drives such a big car. Don’t be missed by others, especially a gang blocked the road and robbed it a while ago. Before the police took it off, many cars were affected. You are lucky and safe every time you go in and out...

...

Among the bosses' words, she was sometimes from the south, sometimes from the north, sometimes married, sometimes waiting to marry, sometimes working for others, and sometimes from her own business... It seems that she was used to making up for her identity at that time.

Ye Liuxi found a small notebook and reasoned it one by one to remember, as if he had bricks stacked out of the mysteries.

She could actually ask Changdong with a gun on her face: "How is it? Do you think I'm like a mystery, which is particularly interesting?"

I didn't think so, Changdong only felt that her vagina was still unlucky: I played with amnesia, and brought the causes and consequences over it, and threw them over a bunch of mysteries.

He said: "Do you think I'll believe it?"

She turned sideways to give way to him: "If you don't believe me, just leave. Have I stopped you?"

Changdong was silent for a while, brushed past her and walked down the sand slope.

Ye Liuxi chuckled, but he didn't stop him.

The sand is soft, and half of the foot is sunken when you step down. A lot of fine sand leaks into the gaps in the shoes. It is not hard or uncomfortable, but it is not comfortable.

It's not that he doesn't believe in those weird things.

People who often run to Lop Nur have awe of the unknown than ordinary people. Various strange disappearances and deaths emerge one after another. The story of the popular "Pisces Jade Pendant" on the Internet originated from this. Some people even think that there is a parallel world hidden in the hinterland of Lop Nur.

This is also the reason why Changdong did not have much rejection or doubt when he saw the photo of Kong Yang.

But whether Ye Liuxi can believe these words still needs to be considered.

...

When I was about to walk down the sand slope, my phone rang, and the caller ID was Ye Liuxi.

Changdong answered the phone and turned around at the same time.

From some distance, she could only see the silhouette. She sat on the collapsed rammed earth wall like a medieval place. The poplar behind her looked like hideous and prickly bone claws.

"Changdong, I am not forced to do things. I said earlier that if you want to chase me, I will chase me or not."

"But I would like to remind you that everything has opportunities. It is definitely not a coincidence that Kong Yang's photo appears here. If you think you can collect the body of your friend with me, wouldn't it be too optimistic?"

"Do I still want to do something about you? I think I want to do it, and I have to see if I have that value first... You have already paid off almost all the money, and I am bored, and I am very confused about doing things. I heard that you still don't want to look at your own face, and you dare to straighten your back with the skin of others."

"You'll be like this in your life. Go back and carve shadow puppets. I wish you a Golden Knife Award."

The silhouette she sat in was arrogant, and even the breathing from the receiver was provocative.
