The gloomy sky cleared, and the raging wind was gone.

The desert is still the same desert, as if the black sandstorm never came.

The roof of the black and red Wrangler was covered in sand, and two headlights were completely broken and unusable.

Rao is such a powerful off-road vehicle, even under the ravages of the black sandstorm, it is also full of scars.

"call"

Mo Qing lifted the blanket covering his head. There was a thick layer of gravel on the blanket, and when he lifted it, the sand and dust flew up.

"cough cough"

He fanned the dust in the air with his hands, and looked down at Han Ling in his arms.

At the moment before the windshield shattered, Mo Qing took advantage of his quick wits, hugged Han Ling into his arms, and covered the two of them with blankets.

During the period, the wind outside had to blow the blanket away several times. If Mo Qing hadn't held on tightly, their only protection would have been lost.

The blankets kept most of the sand and dust out for both of them.

"survive"

Mo Qing leaned back on the seat and looked at Han Ling who was cleaning his hair.

He reached out to help her shake the sand.

"Where are we now?" Han Ling asked.

"do not know"

Mo Qing's tone seemed a little helpless, he was driving aimlessly in the black sandstorm, and he didn't know where he was now.

"Um"

Han Ling's expression was flat, without any panic.

Mo Qing unbuckled his seat belt, got out of the car, and walked to the side of the car to observe.

At first he thought that the car was stuck in a sand trap and couldn't move, but after checking, he found that it was not the case.

The front left wheel of the car knocked down a big rock, and the tire burst, and the rock just hit the chassis of the car.

"how is the situation?"

"No problem"

Mo Qing took out the jack and other tools from the carriage, and then directed Han Ling to back the car out.

Fortunately, this Wrangler is a four-wheel drive vehicle with powerful performance. If an ordinary car encounters this situation, it can only be towed by someone.

After the car pulled out, Mo Qing began to change the wheels.

A few minutes later, Mo Qing, with greasy hands, looked at the replaced wheels and wiped away his sweat.

In this vast desert, if the car is scrapped, it will be even more difficult for them to leave.

"Drink some water." Han Ling handed over a bottle of mineral water.

Before departure, they only prepared two boxes of mineral water, which were given by the owner of the car dealership.

After all, they only plan to stay in the ancient city for one night, so there is no need to prepare too much food and water.

Two boxes of water were placed in two cars for everyone to drink.

In other words, Mo Qing only has one tank of water here.

After the black sandstorm, the desert returned to its usual heat.

Replacing the spare tire is a physical effort, and Mo Qing was already sweating profusely, so he drank a bottle of mineral water in one gulp.

A normal adult needs to drink [-] to [-] milliliters of water a day, and in a hot desert environment, this value will only be higher.

Back in the car, Mo Qing turned off the air conditioner and opened the surrounding windows for ventilation.

Maybe there was sand in the car window gap, and it made a harsh sound when it was lowered.

The interior of the car will be slightly cooler than the heat outside.

After being exposed to high temperature outside, people's blood vessels and pores are in a dilated state.

At this time, entering a low-temperature environment for a moment, the blood vessels constrict, and those who suffer from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are very prone to the risk of disease.

Even without such disorders, people may experience symptoms such as dizziness, muscle cramps, nausea and vomiting.

What Mo Qing has to do now is to calm down his heart rate slowly, take a short rest, and then turn on the air conditioner.

From leaving the village to encountering the black sandstorm until the end, he estimated that nearly two hours had passed.

And the exit time from the village is 02:30 pm.

Mo Qing muttered to himself, "It's almost five o'clock now."

The name of the desert is Rub Khali Desert, which means "the empty quarter".

Located on Dashi Peninsula, near the Tropic of Cancer.

The season at this time is late spring and early summer.

The time of sunset is roughly after 06:30.

Sunset is now only an hour away.

After taking a short rest, Mo Qing tried to contact Zhang Yiming with the walkie-talkie.

But there was only a rustling sound.

After several attempts, but still the same, Mo Qing finally gave up.

Now there are only two situations: one, Zhang Yiming is in danger and cannot be contacted; two, the walkie-talkie is too far away.

Mo Qing thinks it should be the second type, and hopes to be the second type.

People can't get in touch, now he has to find a way to find out where he is.

There are many ways to identify the direction in the wild, the simplest is to judge by the sunrise and sunset.

During the summer half of the year in the northern hemisphere (between the vernal equinoxes and the autumnal equinoxes), the sunrise and sunset will be northerly, that is, northeast and southwest.

At this time, it was almost dusk, and the sun in the sky gradually moved westward.

Mo Qing can roughly judge that the position of the left hand is west.

The location of the village is probably in the northeast direction.

It is not known how many kilometers are separated in the middle.

Fortunately, their car is still usable, and there is no problem at all to drive back.

Mo Qing started the car and headed northeast.

After the baptism of a black sandstorm, the already cloudless sky became clearer.

Without the obstruction of the windshield, the sunlight entered the cockpit without obstruction.

The air conditioning in the car echoes the heat outside.

Mo Qing's upper body was hot, while his lower body was cool and comfortable.

He didn't take off the long cloth strip around his nose and mouth, but he also took out a pair of sunglasses and put it on.

The sand and dust blown on the face can easily float into the eyes.

Suddenly, Mo Qing noticed a cloud of white smoke floating in front of him.

Seems to be floating out of the hood.

Mo Qing stepped on the brakes quickly, and the car stopped suddenly.

Han Ling also noticed something strange about the car, and they got out of the car together.

Mo Qing walked around to the front of the car, took a piece of cloth and covered the hood, and then slowly opened it.

Under the fierce sun, even through a piece of cloth, you can still feel the high temperature from the hood.

If this is in direct contact with human skin, a blood blister will inevitably be scalded.

The lid was opened, and the white smoke accumulated inside burst out suddenly.

The two were forced to retreat together.

"Cough cough" Han Ling coughed twice, looking at the steaming engine, "Why did this car break down all of a sudden?"

Mo Qing took a closer look, "Maybe it was caused by sand particles entering the engine during a sandstorm. I'll give it a try and see if it can be repaired."

After speaking, he took out the tools from the car and began to inspect the vehicle.

After 10 minutes, Mo Qing shook his head, "No, this car has to be repaired in a professional auto repair shop."

"Huh?" Han Ling was a little surprised.

Where can there be an auto repair shop in this desert where there are no villages or shops behind?
"The car can't be repaired, we might have to spend the night here tonight." Mo Qing said helplessly with his hands on his hips.

Now one can only hope that rescue will find them.

It seems to have returned to the scene when I first entered the desert island, looking forward to the arrival of rescue.

It was just that rescue, they waited for more than a year, so what about this time?
