Even if everyone is still alive and we can be reunited, if the camels run away and the water and food are gone, we are still dead in the end.
Thinking of this, I sighed deeply, and I even had a feeling that death was coming soon.
But I know that I can't be too depressed and pessimistic. The more I'm in such a desperate situation, the less likely I am to be like this, as it will reduce people's desire to survive.
I have to try to find them. We have encountered so many dangers before and we have turned them around. We can definitely do it this time.
But, which direction should I go to find them?
At that time, after the black clouds covered the entire sky, the wind was not actually blowing in one direction. It would blow to the left, then to the right, and sometimes it would suddenly make a 180-degree U-turn and blow back. As a result, I am now unclear about the relationship between my current position and my position before the wind blew.
Moreover, I have been unconscious for a long time, and it is already the afternoon. If anyone is still alive, they will definitely not stay still in the past few hours, right?
What if they go further away from me?
At this moment, I suddenly saw a small black spot shaking on the sand dunes in the distance. It looked like a camel and a person. I looked at it carefully for a long time and felt that it was more likely to be a person. I stood up immediately. Wave to that side and shout at the same time.
Maybe because of the distance, the guy couldn't hear my shouts at all. He didn't react at first, until he probably saw me later, and the little black dot started shaking violently.
I didn't think much about it, and immediately walked over there, muttering to myself:
The wind was so strong that it actually blew me so far. The distance between me and that guy was at least several miles.
Hiking for several miles in the desert is very strenuous, especially now that the dark clouds are gone and the sun is still hanging overhead. Although it is already afternoon, the sun is still very fierce.
Besides, I didn’t even have any water on me, and I felt like my throat was going to smoke after walking for a while.
To be on the safe side, I later slowed down, rested when I was tired, and tried not to lose too much water through sweating. I also took many long detours and walked in the shade. When I got close to the guy, I Only then did he realize who it was.
She looks like a girl with short hair.
The short-haired girl obviously recognized me. She shouted to Commander Chen excitedly. When there was still a high slope left before me, she almost rolled down the slope and immediately jumped in front of me. Hold me close to you.
When he was done, he burst into tears and said while crying: "I was blown far, far away by the wind. When the wind stopped, everyone else was gone. I thought I was going to die in the desert, and thought I would never be seen again. It’s your turn, I’m really scared to death, woo woo woo…”
The short-haired girl always looked down on us and was the least polite when talking to us. I was quite surprised that she could talk to me like this and hug me now.
I even had the illusion that she was a girl with short hair, as if she had changed into a different person.
But it's normal to think about it. She was always accompanied by someone before, and she had the confidence to maintain the little arrogance in her heart.
After being blown away by the wind, she was left alone. She had probably been alone in this vast desert for several hours. This feeling of helplessness and fear must have frightened her.
Not to mention meeting me, she would probably be particularly excited and happy even if she met people like Zhao Hu and Jianzui who often teased and insulted her.
She hugged me a little tight, causing my neck to hurt a bit, and I was very tired after walking for a long time. She was even more tired hanging on me like this.
I patted her and asked her to come down, and then said: "Stop crying. The tears you cry are all water in your body. Crying again will make you more dehydrated."
She got off me and immediately lowered her head to look for my water glass: "I'm almost dying of thirst. Where's your water glass? Let me drink some water."
I smiled bitterly and said, "The wind was so strong that I basically kept rolling on the sand. I didn't even know where I dropped my water glass."
"Ah?" She looked frustrated: "What should we do? There is no water at all. We won't die of thirst in this desert, right?"
I said that I knew some ways to find water in the desert. If we were lucky, we could still find some water sources, but this relied too much on luck.
She curled her lips and said, "If I had known this, you might as well have let us drink more water during the morning and lunch break. It's a pity that we have lost all the water now."
As she said this, she sat down on the sand and started crying again.
It was then that I discovered that her clothes were all torn. There was only one button left on the shirt on her chest, and a big hole seemed to be torn under her armpits. It was obvious that the clothes were torn while rolling.
I also checked my clothes. Thanks to the strong fabrics of my clothes, they were still intact during the rolling process.
After she cried for a while, she didn't stop, so I reminded her again: "Didn't I just say, stop crying, the more you cry, the less water you will need."
At the same time, I muttered in my heart:
It would be fine if I met other people, but I met a girl with short hair. She is a total drag, and she can hardly help me with me.
The short-haired woman sobbed a few times, then looked up at me: "Then...then what should we do now? What if we can't find the camel team and others?"
I said if we can't find it, we have to rely on ourselves. It's best if we can get out alive. If we can't get out, we have to accept our fate.
She went on to chatter a lot, saying that she was still young and had not lived enough, and that her parents were still waiting for her to get married in the future. Anyway, I was a little upset after hearing this.
Especially now I don’t know how my teammates are doing, and her chatter here is affecting my thoughts.
When my mind got hot, I yelled at her: "Can you shut up? What's the use of saying these words here? Now is the time to conserve your energy. Do you think talking is in vain and doesn't waste your energy? If you If you keep talking nonsense, I will leave and you can figure out your own solution."
As I said that, I climbed towards the top of the sand dune. She was probably afraid that I would leave her behind, so she immediately followed behind me and apologized to me at the same time: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong. Please don't leave me behind, okay?" It’s so scary to be alone in the desert, and I never want to try that feeling again in my life.”
I said, then just shut up and speak again when I ask you questions. The rest of the time, just follow me honestly.
She nodded and said she got it.
When I climbed to the top of the sand dune, I yelled around for a while, hoping to find others, but unfortunately I didn't get anything.
Then, I looked at the short-haired woman: "Do you know how far you were blown by the wind?"
"I don't know. Anyway, as soon as I stand up, I will be blown down by the wind. Even if I lie down on the ground, I will be blown around."
"You weren't in a coma during this period, right?"
She shook her head: "No."
"How long has the wind been blowing in total? Is it about an hour or so?"
"I don't know. I was almost scared to death at the time and had no concept of time."
"So after the wind stopped, have you been walking around looking for people?"
"No, it was still dark after the wind stopped. I didn't dare to run around. I was afraid of running into something scary. I found a place and sat there all the time. It was only after the sky cleared that I climbed up the sand dune to look for it. Someone else’s, and then I saw you.”
I sighed and said, "Then let's try to find other people now, or we can find camel supplies or something. If we don't find anything, I'm afraid we won't survive for too long."
She looked like she was about to cry again, but she was afraid that I would scold her and abandon her, so she held it back. To be honest, looking at her expression of whether to cry or not, I suddenly felt that she was quite cute.
In fact, she is still very beautiful and has a good figure, but her temper is not very good. If this aspect can be improved, I think most people will still like her very much.
