Chapter 22 Light in the Dark

Zheng Qiu's voice came, and his voice was very stable: "Okay, now isn't the time to complain. Lao Xiao, are you sure we are in the right direction now?"

Lao Xiao said: "According to the compass' instructions, I am sure we are returning the same way now."

Zheng Qiu said: "But my compass points to the south, not the east."

Lao Xiao was stunned and looked at his compass, which was still east.

Lao Sun said: "My point to the north!"

Lao Xiao quickly looked back through the rearview mirror. There was no car in the yellow sand. He could only vaguely see a ray of lights of the headlights. He confirmed that the two of them were not behind and followed behind.

Lao Xiao was confused, three compass and three directions, which means there was something wrong with the compass!

Then Lao Xiao found that his compass began to tremble and rotate, and finally started to rotate at high speed. Even the intercom began to rustle, and the sound was intermittent.

Lao Xiao quickly braked, stopped the car, and shouted to the intercom, "Don't drive, the direction must be wrong. There seems to be a magnetic field in front of him interfering with the compass, so you can't leave!"

The car behind also stopped, and Lao Sun's voice came from the walkie-talkie: "What did you say? I can't hear it!"

Lao Xiao repeated it several times, and Lao Sun, Tang Mei, Zheng Qiu and others heard it clearly, and then urged Lao Xiao to think of a solution.

Xiao Ou said: "Dad, if not, let's stop here and leave."

Lao Xiao shook his head and said, "Sandstorm is divided into four levels: dust, sandstorm, sandstorm and black storm.

What we encountered was a very rare black storm. The wind speed of the black storm is at least 8 levels. Judging from the continuous shrinking of the visible distance, the black storm is still increasing.

If it is an ordinary sandstorm, we can stop the car, stuff the chassis with things and hide it and carry it over.

But this level is not good!

If we don’t walk, the dunes will walk. Now the whole desert is moving. If we keep moving, we will be buried by the yellow sand. We can’t even leave if we want to. So we must leave!"

"Where can you go? There is not even a direction." Xiao Ou asked.

Lao Xiao also looked confused. Although he had traveled through the desert many times and had been attacked by sandstorms, it was the first time that the compass failed due to the sandstorm and magnetic field interference.

"Daughter, stare at the compass. After we drive, if the compass turns faster and faster, you remind me that it means we are in the wrong direction. We must stay away from the magnetic field to have the opportunity to go out alive. Don't cry, be strong! Didn't you say that girls should also have the same power as men? Then you have to assume the obligations of men, including courage!"

Old Xiao patted Xiao Ou's shoulder heavily.

Xiao Ou looked at his father's firm and trustworthy eyes and nodded vigorously: "Well, I will watch it, Dad, come on!"

Lao Xiao began to try to communicate with everyone and reverse the car and go back the same way.

Lao Sun, Zheng Qiu and others also cooperated to start reversing, but soon everyone became desperate, because whether they were driving forward or reversing, the compass was spinning at a high speed, without increasing or decelerating.

Lao Xiao's face looked very ugly...

"Old Xiao, what's going on?" Lao Sun asked in a crying voice, but Lao Sun was still holding it down. Obviously, he still wanted some face in front of his son.

Lao Xiao said: "You follow me closely. We must walk near the upper part of the sand beam on the windward surface. Wind is an important factor in shaping the ground shape of the desert. The northwest deserts in the northwest region prevail at this time, and the sand dunes usually form a southeast direction. When we walk with the wind, the direction is very likely to be southeast! As long as we keep the wind, we will not get lost. The rest depends on our fate."

After Lao Xiao finished speaking, he started the vehicle. After walking for a while, he heard Lao Sun shouting: "No, my car broke down and can't start."

When Lao Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but want to curse. It was like a sudden rain.

In desperation, Lao Xiao had to stop the car, and after trying hard to communicate, he comforted Xiao Ou and took the rope down by himself.

Not long after, Lao Xiao connected the two cars together and began to pull Lao Sun's car forward.

As a result, after driving for a while, Lao Xiao's car also turned off and he couldn't catch fire no matter how he did it.

Lao Xiao gritted his teeth and took Xiao Ou, Lao Sun and Sun Xing into Zheng Qiu's car together, and decided to abandon the three cars and get out of trouble.

However, the more people walked, the more they felt, the more they felt. In the vast black storm, they had no idea where they were going, nor how long the storm would blow, and how long the car could last.

Once the car breaks down, I am afraid everyone will die!

For a moment, the car was filled with a breath of despair.

The black storm was getting stronger and stronger, and the car body was swaying, and crackling sand hit the car window, as if countless evil spirits were slapping the car window, making people feel creepy.

Everyone looked at Lao Xiao, hoping that Lao Xiao could come up with a better solution.

However, Lao Xiao just smiled helplessly and said, "There is no way... Follow the wind, now, I can only leave it to fate..."

Just when everyone was desperate, Lao Xiao saw Zheng Qiu clasping his hands together and praying something.

Lao Sun said: "What's the use of chanting Buddha's name? This only temple is occupied by a black-hearted monk. I guess the Buddha does not have it, and there may be two monsters."

Lao Xiao also said, "Zheng Qiu, this is a black storm. It is useless for you to recite scriptures and Buddha. No matter how pious you recite, you cannot recite the Buddha of Tathagata."

As soon as he finished speaking, after experiencing a lot, Xiao Ou seemed not so timid.

Since she was sure to die, she felt much calmer and joked: "Dad, be careful of being slapped in the face again."

Lao Xiao laughed and said, "If this can be slapped in the face, then just hit it, use harder, hahaha..."

As he smiled, Lao Xiao's smile froze, his pupils dilated, and even glowed!

To be precise, it's reflecting!

At the same time, Zheng Qiu stopped reciting scriptures, and Tang Mei, who was sitting in front, exclaimed: "Light! Light! There is light in front!"

Sun Xing and Zheng Yun also saw it: "There are people in the light, is that the Buddha?"

Xiao Ou looked and saw a white light lit up in front of him. In this black storm, it was like a white sun, sitting on a sand dune, shining on them through the darkness.

The point is that there seems to be a person in the center of that light!

The black storm is a kind of darkness formed by sand and dust particles being rolled up into the air that blocks the light, and does not devour the light. To put it bluntly, the black storm is a barrier that blocks the light.

The sun cannot shine in, and other lights naturally cannot shine in, unless the distance is very close.

But the gentle light that makes people feel peaceful can shine through infinite sand and dust. Even the figure in the center of the light can see clearly...
