Xiao Zhuizi continued: "The problem is that he is only one person. Even if he has any evil intentions, so many of us are afraid that we can't deal with him? I still think that it is impossible for everyone to be a bad person, and our luck will not be so bad. It’s a bad guy, and Jianjun just promised to take him with him. If he doesn’t take him with him then, it will anger him.”
"If you make him angry, make him angry. What can he do as a bare commander? Besides, one more person means one more person to consume. We don't have enough water and food ourselves. Let alone one person, even half of it won't work. If …”
"Okay." I waved my hand to signal them to stop arguing.
Then I made up my mind and said, "I just promised him that I had to do it in front of him. I thought about it in my mind and thought it would be better not to take it with me. At most, I would give him a camel and some food and let him We are here to fend for ourselves. We are here to find people and help others, not to do charity. If we can reduce the risk, we will reduce the risk."
Then, I asked them to stop the topic and talk to the baby first.
Afterwards, we walked around the ancient city.
Apart from the ruins, there was nothing special to discover, so in the end we had to come to the bottom of the ancient pagoda.
In appearance, this tower does look like a Tang Dynasty pavilion-style brick tower, but it is not made of bricks, but of wood.
The strangest thing is that there are no doors or windows, so there is no way to see what is going on inside the tower. Anyway, when I knock on the wall of the tower with my hand, the sound coming out shows that there is a hole inside.
Because Scar Man said that the sound of chanting can be heard from the tower at night, I also tested it with quicklime, but there was nothing abnormal.
Zhao Hu also smiled and said: "I think that guy was hallucinating or hearing things. He was so weak that he was about to die when he got here, and he was alone. He must have been highly nervous at night. He had hallucinations while sleeping. Normal, this tower should be a normal tower.”
I can't rule out the possibility that this tower will be fine during the day, but something fishy will happen at night. After all, we've encountered so many evil things recently, we have to prepare for the worst.
"Then what should we do now? Should we study the tower first, or clean the sand first to see if there are any treasures underneath?" he continued to ask.
I said: "Stay one night first to see if there is anything fishy about this tower. You can go dig the sand before dark. Didn't Professor Qin say that there is a city lord who likes to collect Buddha statues? We can look for those larger ones." As for the building, it may be the city lord's house. If we dig close to the big house first, we will definitely have a higher chance of finding something than digging in other places."
The pointed mouth smiled bitterly and said: "I think that even if the city lord has many Buddha statues, he would not be stupid enough to put them in the house. They will probably be hidden very secretly and we will not be able to dig them out."
I said no matter what, his house must not only have Buddha statues as treasures, but also many other gold and silver jewelry. It would definitely be much better to find them in his house than in ordinary people's homes.
He said that was true.
Then we divided into three groups and searched for larger houses in the city. I was in a group with Sister Yuan. The two of us searched for less than ten minutes when Sister Yuan suddenly said: "Oh, are we too worried about that scar?" A man now?"
I asked her what was wrong.
She said: "We are not familiar with him and don't know who he is. The camel team is still tied up near him. There should be someone there to watch him. In case he has no good intentions and just leads the camel What should I do if I run away secretly?”
Sister Yuan's words gave me a wake-up call, but I don't think the scarred man would do this.
I smiled and said: "Ours is a basin, surrounded by sand dunes. As long as he leads the camel and runs out, he will definitely climb up the sand dunes. No matter from which angle he climbs, we can see it at a glance. Zhao Hu and the others are also covered in Carrying a gun, I don't think he would take this risk. Besides, there is desert all around. What's the use of going out alone? The chance of death is very high. He shouldn't be so stupid. We also agreed to take him out. What did he do? Why do you do this?”
Sister Yuan's lips were slightly opened, but she stopped talking.
Glancing in the direction of the scarred man, she continued to advise me: "I think it's better to be careful. The camel team is all our property. If something goes wrong, we will all die here."
I said okay, then I asked Brother Ma to go over and pretend to chat with him so that I could keep an eye on him.
Sister Yuan nodded, and was about to climb to a high place to see where Brother Xiao Ma was when Zhao Hu suddenly yelled and cursed in the distance: "What the hell are you doing? Want to steal our camels? Stop right now." Get off or I'll shoot."
When I heard this, my heart skipped a beat.
What are you really afraid of? Sister Yuan just said to be careful of him stealing camels, and he actually went and stole them?
Then, Zhao Hu shouted at us loudly, telling us to run to the camel team. Naturally, Sister Yuan and I ran away.
As they ran that way, Zhao Hu and Xiao Zizi kept yelling and cursing. Maybe they were a little anxious, so Zhao Hu even fired a shot.
When we got to the camel team, I found three camels running wildly towards the sand dunes in the distance. On the front camel, the man with the scar was riding on it, driving the camels frantically, and turning back towards us from time to time. Take a look.
Zhao Hu and Xiao Zizi had chased him for more than a hundred meters, but they were running on foot. They couldn't run as fast as camels in the desert, so they couldn't catch up.
I shouted to Zhao Hu to come back and ride the camel. When the two of them heard my shout, they turned around and ran back.
Immediately afterwards, other people also ran here. When Zhao Hu and Xiao Zizi came back, I asked Sister Xiao Yeyuan to wait here, and asked Brother Xiao Ma to stay here with a gun to guard them, while the others followed me. Riding a camel to chase.
It seems that Scar Man is quite thoughtful. Before escaping, he tied our camel reins together and tied them in a tight knot. We couldn't untie them for a long time, so we simply cut the reins directly with a knife. Then they each rode their camels to catch up.
On the way to chase, Jianzui even raised his pigtails, and said, "Did you see that this guy is not a good guy at first sight? You said you wanted to take him out with you, are you still taking him now?"
The pigtail was also so angry that he cursed: "Who knew he was this kind of person? When I catch him later, I have to beat him up. Fortunately, the guns are all on us. Otherwise, if he took the gun, we would There’s trouble.”
Zhao Hu's face was full of anxiety at this time: "This bitch, he took most of the beef jerky and water. If we can't catch him back, we may have to kill camels to survive."
When I heard what Zhao Hu said, I felt relieved. I said: "He is quite brainless. It's okay to bring more beef jerky, but he actually pulled up so much water. This camel is pulling such heavy water." , he will be tired after running for a while, we will definitely catch up with him soon."
"Damn, you have a fucking crow's mouth." Zhao Hu suddenly said at this time, and then pointed to the front: "That guy threw the water down."
I looked forward and saw that the scarred man was riding on the first camel, but now he was riding on the second camel.
There were four buckets of water tied to the sides of the second camel, and he dropped two buckets directly.
Immediately afterwards, he jumped onto the back of the first camel with great skill. Yes, he jumped over it, instead of getting off and riding again. It felt like those Mongolian horse riding masters getting on and off the horse. This also made me conclude that this camel The guy is definitely a master of horseback riding too.
At this time, Jianzui said something again that made me panic. He said: "That guy seems to have taken away the three strongest camels. What if we can't catch up?"
