Finally, after a few minutes, Sun Tao ran over with some broken bones in his hands.
"Mr. Lu, a groundbreaking discovery!"
Lu Yuan quickly glanced at the broken bones in the other person's hand.
What does this mean?
"Haha, Mr. Lu, look at the moisture content of these broken bones!"
Lu Yuan quickly picked up one of the broken bones and examined it.
"There are still some bits of meat left on it!"
"That's right, they obviously haven't been eating for long! It seems that Han Wen and his team's temporary camp is nearby!"
Lu Yuan nodded immediately: "Let's go! Let's see if we can find them nearby!"
The two immediately split up and began searching in the vast desert.
After searching for half an hour, just as Lu Yuan was about to return without finding anything, a commotion suddenly came from behind the sand in the distance.
Lu Yuan immediately turned around and saw a figure running quickly into the distance.
"Holy crap, why are you dressed like this?"
Lu Yuan had only glanced at the person in the distance and immediately noticed that the clothes he was wearing were clearly animal skins, and the bare upper body looked somewhat dark.
So he immediately gave chase, and when he reached the corner, Lu Yuan saw two people excitedly lying on the ground, yelling strangely.
"Haha! Got it! Got it! It's right in my hands! You keep an eye on it, don't let it get away!"
"Hold on tight! It was so hard to catch this one! Now we don't have to go looking for tree roots to eat anymore!"
Then the two carefully pulled out what they were holding, and Lu Yuan could see their prey clearly from a distance.
It was a rat, covered in grayish-black fur, just the most ordinary kind of rat.
But the two of them looked as if they had caught some delicious treat, their eyes shining.
They didn't even notice Lu Yuan approaching.
It wasn't until Lu Yuan coughed that the two of them paused for a moment, then turned to look at Lu Yuan's shocked expression.
"You...aren't you the oil experts from Hanwen's exploration team? How did you end up like this?"
Lu Yuan vaguely remembered seeing Han Wen and Xi Wen when he saw them off.
The taller man used to wear glasses, but now he has no eyes and is only wearing an animal skin around his waist.
The other man had a bald patch on his head and a wound more than ten centimeters long on his chest, which had healed but left a red scar.
Upon seeing Lu Yuan, the two were initially stunned, and then simultaneously let out a strange cry.
"Mr. Lu! It's Mr. Lu! Haha! That's great! We're saved!"
"It really is Mr. Lu! Am I dreaming?"
Looking at the two of them, Lu Yuan felt a pang of sadness.
"What exactly happened? Where are Xiwen and Hanwen? And the others?"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, the two fell silent, and then two streams of tears welled up in their eyes.
Lu Yuan looked at the two of them and sighed, "Alright, let's get rid of the rat! I'll take you back first!"
Then, Lu Yuan flicked his finger and led the two to Sun Tao.
When Sun Tao saw the two of them, he showed the same surprised expression as Lu Yuan.
"This...aren't these the people from the previous exploration team?"
Lu Yuan nodded: "That's right! They're from the exploration team. These two are oil experts. This is Qin Xiaohui, and that's Lü Zhan. Never mind, let's go back first! Let them have some food and change their clothes!"
Sun Tao didn't ask any more questions, then pointed to the things dug out of the sand in the distance: "Mr. Lu, these things..."
"Forget it, now that we've found the person, these things are useless for the time being! Let's just leave them here!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan flicked his finger and led the group back into the city.
Qin Xiaohui and Lü Zhan had clearly not eaten for a long time. Lu Yuan wanted them to take a shower and change their clothes before eating, but seeing that the two of them kept staring at the cafeteria, he eventually let them eat first and then take a shower and change their clothes.
After eating, taking a shower, and changing clothes, the two were radiant once again. However, perhaps because they had been outside for too long, they still looked like refugees.
"Tell me, what happened back then? And what about the other people involved?"
After a moment of silence, Qin Xiaohui and Lü Zhan finally spoke.
“A month ago, we were preparing to go to the desert to look for oil. The original plan was to stay in the desert for half a month, find samples, and then leave. But unexpectedly, on the third day in the heart of the desert, we encountered a tornado!”
Lu Zhan nodded: "Yes, thankfully Han Wen made timely adjustments, which saved our lives! However, our supplies were blown away later. In order to get food, Han Wen and the others went to look for food, while Lao Qin and I were looking for oil!"
"Sigh, I never expected that Han Wen and the others would be gone for a month, and we still don't know where they went!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan frowned immediately: "They've been gone for a whole month? Didn't you go look for them back then?"
Qin Xiaohui shook his head: "We looked, but couldn't find him! Xiao Lü and I almost lost track of each other while looking for him!"
