"No?" After Professor Yang heard Duomu say this, he stared curiously at the place where Xu Xuening had just disappeared. After thinking about it, he simply took off his shoes and socks and walked in.
"Professor?" The tall captain watched Professor Yang's every move with a hint of worry. They had already lost a teammate, and they couldn't afford to lose this important professor.
"It's okay." Professor Yang stood there and waved his hand, signaling the captain not to worry about him.
He circled in a small circle with a diameter of three meters for a long time, but nothing bad happened. Everything seemed to be quiet again, as if nothing had happened. However, the disappearance of Xu Xuening constantly reminded everyone present that this place was full of danger.
Some people began to suggest that the captain leave here as soon as possible, while others wanted to collect specimens quickly before leaving. After all, the discovery of that kind of renewable mushroom would be of great benefit to their future food products.
They discussed the questions one after another, and they were still discussing when Han Xiaoxiao woke up.
No one spoke up to save Xu Xuening. After Han Xiaoxiao understood, she was extremely disappointed with everyone present.
"Sister, if they don't save you, I will."
Han Xiaoxiao looked at the big pit where Xu Xuening disappeared and wanted to dig it up, but after digging for so long, she could only see more yellow sand and couldn't find even a piece of cloth.
"Xiao Han, stop digging. If you want to save your sister, I have an idea for you." Professor Yang looked at Han Xiaoxiao, whose hands had been rubbed on the ground and had blisters on them. He lowered his voice and whispered in his ear.
Looking at Han Xiaoxiao's excited eyes, just as she was about to say something, she saw Professor Yang immediately put a finger to her lips and made a gesture.
A silencing gesture.
Han Xiaoxiao immediately shut her mouth.
Professor Yang took Han Xiaoxiao to the side and saw the tall captain instructing his men to finish their tasks quickly. He immediately quickened the pace and instructed Han Xiaoxiao.
"The thing that kidnapped your sister, I'll call it a thing for the time being. There are two theories: one is quicksand, and the other is some kind of object, like a strange creature that can dissolve petroleum products. Most people tend to lean towards the first, but I think it's the second. Do you know what this means?" Professor Yang looked at Han Xiaoxiao and shook his head, his face confused, and continued to explain, "This means that your sister's chances of survival are greater. If she was kidnapped by a wild beast, as long as she wasn't killed immediately, there is a chance of survival. Maybe your sister is imprisoned somewhere. As long as we find her, we can get out."
"Where is that place?" Han Xiaoxiao asked Professor Yang excitedly.
Professor Yang shook his head honestly, "I don't know about that. Oh, don't be impatient. Young people really don't know how to patiently listen to what an old man has to say."
Han Xiaoxiao no longer cared about that. He grabbed Professor Yang by the collar, put his face close to Professor Yang, looked at the age spots on his face, and asked anxiously, "Hurry up and tell me how to find my sister."
"You have to alert the enemy." Professor Yang looked at him.
"Cutting grass? That's no problem." Han Xiaoxiao said as she was about to rush out.
"Come back." Professor Yang grabbed Han Xiaoxiao's clothes tightly and was almost thrown to the ground by the young man's momentum. "I haven't finished what I said yet."
"Then tell me quickly!"
"We can't just cut the grass randomly. Based on my observations, the plants around here must have some kind of synergy with the desert. There are only two possibilities as to who took your sister away. One is that the desert itself took her away. In that case, it would be difficult for us to find her. The other possibility is that she was taken away by the plants outside. If the latter is the case, your sister must be hiding nearby."
"Then how should I find it?" Han Xiaoxiao looked at the plants outside that were as sharp as weapons and felt that her shoes were a bit thin.
"At this time, if you imagine a group of bad guys wanting to hide someone in this town, where are they most likely to hide?"
Professor Yang winked at Han Xiaoxiao.
"Professor, the captain is looking for you!"
"Hey, here they come." Professor Yang casually dealt with the people outside, then grabbed Han Xiaoxiao's arm and reminded her again, "Get out from behind this tent and don't let the captain see you. Otherwise, you won't be able to save your sister. They are discussing evacuation now, and they may not be able to do it without you. I'll go to the front to help you hold off for a while, so hurry up."
After watching Han Xiaoxiao disappear, Professor Yang tidied up his messy hair, straightened his hairstyle, and said to himself, "These plants are all treasures. If I go back like this, my life's learning will be in vain."
