The further north you go, the drier the air becomes.

A cool breeze blew in from the cabin of the SUV, and no matter how well-groomed your hair was when you got up early, it instantly became a mess.

On the other hand, Wanwan, who was sitting in the driver's seat, had a few strands of black hair brushing against her face, and her loosely tied bun gave her a sense of cool and messy beauty that made Lu Changchuan unable to take his eyes away.

Looking down at his camouflage overalls and T-shirt of the same color, Lu Changchuan inexplicably felt as if he had been reborn.

The last time I dressed like this was when I went to Lucheng with my fourth uncle.

Later, when his fourth uncle got into trouble, he promised his grandparents that he would never take risks alone again.

From then on, not to mention extraordinary things, even extraordinary clothing disappeared from his cloakroom.

Unexpectedly, I could experience it again with Wanwan.

The sun was setting, and the sunlight was gradually becoming dazzling. Lu Changchuan took out the magic mirror and handed it to Ye Wan, "Do you want me to drive it?"

"Need not."

Ye Wan took the sunglasses and put them on, then glanced at the convoy in the rearview mirror, "We'll be there in about half an hour."

Lu Changchuan said nothing more.

In the morning, we came down from Yunwu Mountain and headed straight to the airport.

The plane transferred to the high-speed rail, and then to the train, and then they arrived at this remote place that Lu Changchuan had almost never heard of.

Shuocheng.

On the map, Shuocheng is closer to the northwest.

There is no developed industry.

Agriculture and animal husbandry are out of the question, as all you can see is desert.

I only heard that a group of gold diggers gathered here a few years ago.

It was bustling for only two years. After the collapse of several gold mines, which resulted in several deaths, this place became even more remote and desolate.

If time could go back hundreds or thousands of years, this place would probably be the frontier area on the map.

"Are you sure it's here?"

As soon as he said this, Lu Changchuan stopped talking.

If it were someone else, it would be appropriate to ask this question.

But this is late at night.

Lu Changchuan took out the treasure map that Ye Wan had drawn and started looking at it.

"arrive!"

At first glance, there is no end to the Gobi Desert.

It seemed no different from the Gobi Desert they had seen when they walked out of Shuocheng Railway Station and drove all the way here in an off-road vehicle.

But if Wanwan said it’s here, then it must have arrived.

Lu Changchuan pushed open the car door and got out.

Everyone got off the bus.

"The end of the sky we can see right now is the highest point of this Gobi Desert..."

As the sun sets, the entire Gobi Desert appears even more desolate.

Ye Wan pointed to the distant horizon and said, "The Gobi Desert is very windy at night. There will be flying sand and rocks. It may be dangerous. Let's stay in the car tonight and set off at five o'clock. We can abandon the car and move forward when the time comes."

"yes!"

"Listen to the young lady!"

In addition to Ah Gui, Nie Jinming and the experts in archaeology from the Sihai Chamber of Commerce who came with them were also present.

The social phobiaist Luo Shuihan, and several old men who were so excited when they heard about the treasure hunt that they wished they could come along as well, will arrive soon after they find the treasure.

When traveling, they kept everything simple and the group was too lazy to even set up the military tents.

Before the sun sets, we take out the small stove and small pot and start busying ourselves. In just half an hour, the hot pot is fragrant.

Eating a simple hot pot.

Drinking mineral water mixed with the taste of northwest wind.

Talking about the strange and bizarre ghost legends encountered during treasure hunting and appraising over the years.

There were bursts of laughter.

As night falls and the car lights come on, the story continues.

When the wind and sand became stronger, everyone returned to their cars reluctantly.

"Lu Changchuan..."

The door closed and the car became quiet.

Ye Wan reached out and covered Lu Changchuan's eyes, "I'll give you a gift!"
