Everyone was well-trained. They immediately fell down behind the low mud wall just built and wrapped it outside the spacesuit with shelters such as canvas, in order to protect the spacesuit from being broken down by sand and stone!

    "Get down!" Du Xingyu pulled Xu Lianqiu, handed her a canvas and lay down behind the mud wall. At this time, they couldn''t care about the rover and modular robot.

    Just as they were avoiding, a sudden dust storm had taken shape, and the rolling dust came from a distance! It''s so powerful that it blocks out the sky and the sun!

    "All attention, protect yourself. Yinghuo monitors the dust storm and is ready for rescue!" Du Xingyu shouted.

    "Yes!" the crowd slowed down their breathing and waited quietly.

    It''s the noon of Mars. It''s close to the equator of Mars. It should have been a scorching sun, but now the whole sky is dark, and the rolling dust covers everything!

    In this boundless darkness, the storm carries flying sand and stones, sweeping all the obstacles around!

    It''s noisy! Even across the spacesuit and mask, they can clearly hear the sound of sand and stone impact, especially the "Dong Dong" knocking sound they make on the Mars rover and module robot, which seems to be a terrorist attack in the dark!

    Xu Lianqiu said in the communicator, "don''t move, everyone. This dust storm should pass soon. Protect your spacesuit and remedy it in time if it is broken down by sand and stone... In addition, Mars dust storm will carry a lot of static electricity and even lightning! We''ll try not to talk later!"

    "Boom..." seems to be to verify what Xu Lianqiu said. There was a deafening thunder in the dust storm. The lightning disappeared instantly and was covered by the wind and sand.

    Even astronauts with good psychological quality are frightened when they experience this situation on an alien planet.

    Although Xu Lianqiu was admonishing his teammates, there was some tension in his voice. Everyone knows the truth, but no one can be sure that his judgment is correct when he is in such a disaster scene.

    The dust storm was getting bigger and bigger. Du Xingyu felt countless gravel projectiles on his body, which hurt his whole body. The most deadly thing is that the board he used to cover was blown away directly because of the increase of the wind, and the sand and stone hurt even more!

    When Du Xingyu was ready to bear the pain, he grabbed him with one hand and pulled him into the low-lying place behind the low wall. A canvas on a Mars rover wrapped his body and another body.

    Du Xingyu knows that this is Xu Lianqiu.

    They didn''t speak. They hugged each other tacitly and tried to wrap them in canvas to resist the attack of Martian dust storm.

    In the earth command center, because of the delay of the signal, people have just learned the news of the Martian dust storm.

    At this time, they can only contact the Yinghuo spacecraft, and the astronauts'' signals are difficult to receive because of sand and static interference.

    Time passed minute by minute. Although Du Xingyu and Xu Lianqiu couldn''t feel each other''s breath across the spacesuit, they had a sense of security, and their nervous heartbeat gradually calmed down. From classmates to colleagues, they are familiar with Mars mission together.

    At this moment, in the roaring dust storm on this strange planet, their fate was connected.

    I don''t know how long, every moment in the dust storm seems to be very long. In the dark, Du Xingyu heard the voice in the communicator.

    "Captain! Teammates, this is Yinghuo. Please answer when you hear it." it''s Shen Yan''s voice. She and Jiao Mengyun have been waiting in the spacecraft.

    The dust storm on Mars just now did not have much impact on the Mars spacecraft weighing more than 500 tons.

    "Copy that, I''m Du Xingyu!" Du Xingyu shouted in the communicator, "how''s the dust storm now?"

    "According to satellite monitoring, the dust storm has moved and you are safe!" Shen Yan replied.

    Du Xingyu has felt that the power of nearby dust storms is decreasing.

    "Each team member reports the situation." Du Xingyu shouted.

    "Su Peng, I''m safe!"

    "Xu Rui received it. The outer layer of my spacesuit is damaged, and the inner protective layer is intact and safe."

    "Xu Lianqiu received it. Everything is safe!"

    ……

    Except for some external damage to the spacesuit, everything is fine. Du Xingyu breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that he has succeeded in dealing with the dust storm this time.

    The wind and sand are getting smaller and smaller. Du Xingyu lifts the canvas on his body, and the sun shines on him again.

    He squinted and saw that her whole body was gray. Xu Lianqiu also squinted at him. Through the glass mask, he could see a warm smile on her pretty face.

    "Captain!" Su Peng ran over and asked, "are you all right?"

    "It''s all right!" Du Xingyu pulled Xu Lianqiu up and said, "fortunately, we found it early."

    Su Peng looked around and said, "I''ll test the rover and module robot!"

    They immediately began to clean up the surroundings. Several people with damaged outer layers of spacesuits drove a rover to the spacecraft to repair and replace, while others continued to work.

    "Let''s work hard and build the base early, so we don''t have to suffer!" Du Xingyu encouraged everyone.

    "Xu Rui, let''s continue to do wind direction and temperature detection!" Xu Lianqiu also packed up and started again to do environmental detection stations around.

    "Report to the ground. At present, everything of the Mars mission team is normal. We have resumed base construction!" Du Xingyu connected to the earth command center.

    "OK! You handled it very well. Remember, always put safety first!" he Jingcheng and others finally let go.

    A few hours later, Du Xingyu led the team back to the spacecraft. Today''s work is over. The foundation of the Mars base has just been laid and initially completed. It will be at least 20 days later.

    Lying in bed, Du Xingyu opened his notebook, wrote down the Mars log, and then sent a short video.

    "Hello, everyone, we are building a Mars base and suddenly encountered a Martian dust storm..." in the video, yellow sand blocks out the sky and the sun, accompanied by lightning and thunder, giving people a feeling of breathlessness.

    "The sense of substitution is too strong. I feel that I have been buried alive!"

    "??? will Mars thunder too? Isn''t this a special effect?"

    "Hello, everyone. I found this mobile phone on Mars. There was this video in the mobile phone at that time."

    "@ earth observation, is the author still there?"

    "God, it''s terrible!"

    "This is the power of nature. Although we can land on Mars, we humans are still so small in front of the Martian dust storm!"

    "Is everyone all right?"

    As soon as Du Xingyu''s short video was released, it received millions of broadcasts in ten minutes. During his time working on Mars, his chattering fans had reached 10 million, which brought him a lot of energy points.

    This short video not only quickly boarded the short video hot list, but also became a hot search on other platforms. Many enthusiastic netizens sent private letters to Du Xingyu asking about them.

    No way, Du Xingyu had to update another one and said, "don''t worry, the Martian dust storm just now is a local temporary dust storm. We have successfully avoided it, and all the staff are very safe."

    "In the coming days, we will continue to build a Mars base and carry out scientific research missions. You can pay attention to my short video account - earth observation."

    Netizens were relieved: "scare me!"

    "Earth observation, observe everywhere except the earth!"

    "Updated, survival of Mars!"

    "I wish you peace!"
