Before I finished speaking, I saw something moving quickly from the ground between the ship coffins, escaping from the ground! Just in our direction!
That thing was very fast and was at our feet before we could see it.
"Stand on the coffin!" I yelled.
The man fired two shots at the thing that escaped from the ground, and jumped onto the lid of the ship's coffin closest to him.
We stood on the ship's coffin and observed the movements of the thing underground. The thing seemed to have lost its direction for a while and could not find any trace of us. It surrounded the piece of land where we were standing before and kept moving under the ground. Turning in circles.
Then the sand leveled out and the thing stopped moving.
I didn't dare to relax, and still stared at the surroundings vigilantly.
"Where has it gone! What is that thing? Where has it gone?!" The man in the desert camp raised his gun nervously and kept turning his body to look around.
In this kind of environment, people's spirits are highly tense. The man roared for no reason and fired at the sand in front of him.
However, what was unexpected was that just after a few shots were fired, a black shadow emerged from the ground and knocked the man down!
I saw the black shadow clearly, it looked like... it looked like a bug!
The whole body of the bug was yellowish brown, the same color as sand. It seemed to have hairs on its body, just like a caterpillar. The man must have reacted quickly. Although he was thrown to the ground, he blocked it with his hands. .
I saw the insect, probably on its abdomen. There were many, many tentacles on it, arranged in two rows, and they were all baring their teeth!
Is this the ancestor of the caterpillar? !
This thing is as thick as the standing tree next to it, and its crouched and squirming body is about 1.5 meters tall!
The man resisted with all his strength, and I saw the thing open its mouth, and there were circles of sharp teeth in its mouth!
"You guys, stop looking at me! Come and help!"
The man yelled, and I reacted and rushed over in three steps at a time and then two steps at a time!
The moment I touched that thing, I felt sick from the bottom of my heart! The body of this thing is soft and has fine fluff. If you touch it, you can feel that the mucus on this thing is about to burst out through the thin skin...
I swear, this thing is definitely more disgusting than that human-headed spider!
I took out the dagger given to me by Wen Na, and with a flash of cold light, I stabbed it into the body of the squirming giant insect in front of me...
Although this thing has a disgusting and terrifying big mouth, it can't make any sound. It must have no vocal organs, and its whole body is twitching violently!
I pulled out the dagger and brought out a stream of yellow-brown juice... and sprinkled it on the man's face!
Fortunately, he was wearing a gas mask. I think if this kind of juice was sprinkled on my face, I would probably think: I don’t want this shame!
Ignoring my nausea, I struck a few more times, until the thing stopped moving completely and hung limply in the air, and then I stopped waving the dagger.
The man threw the insect's body aside with all his strength, stood up, and took off the poison mask from his face.
He took off the mask, and I saw that he was an extremely handsome boy, and his gloves were covered with this sticky yellow-brown juice.
He frowned and said, "This is so fucking disgusting!"
I really wanted to laugh when I saw his appearance, but I held it back.
"Oh, it's good that everything is fine."
He was still wiping the liquid on his body in disgust and asked, "What is this?"
I shook my head, saying that I didn’t know either.
"What should I do now? Do you have any ideas?"
I smiled wryly and shook my head to comfort him, "It's okay. I've encountered this situation a lot recently. Don't worry, there will be a road to the mountain."
He kicked the insect's corpse and said, "I hope so."
Now that our communication equipment has failed again, I can't help but think that maybe the previous communication method of lighting up smoke is more effective. Modern technology is too unreliable! Next time, I will definitely bring a few flares wherever I go, if... there is a next time.
"It's getting dark soon," Wen Na said.
In the desert, darkness means the temperature will drop sharply. We set off in a hurry and did not bring any other extra equipment. Darkness does not have much impact on my eyesight. I can overcome the cold, but when I think about it, Spending the night with so many mummies still makes my scalp numb...
If there were just a few more bugs like that... the darkest night in life would be nothing more than this...
In addition, since we have been out for so long and Feng can't contact us, will he think that I ran away... and then detonated the micro bomb in my body... Then it would be a shame for me to die like this!
However, blessings are unparalleled and misfortunes never come alone. Whatever you fear most will come to you.
I saw something shadowy from the other side, between the standing timber and the ship's coffin.
insect? It doesn't quite look like it...
The shadow is too big...
I was chilled from head to toe when I realized what it was.
This dark thing coming over is none other than a sandstorm... The sandstorm is coming!
The desert not only brings people a spectacular feeling, but also makes people feel their own insignificance and fear of nature. I once saw a photo of a sandstorm in a textbook, with yellow sand covering the sky and blocking out the sun, but I thought What we encountered should be 100 times scarier than that.
As the black shadow got closer and closer, I felt like the black shadow was like a huge wave, trying to kill us here.
"Quick! Lie down in the coffin!"
Wen Na was the first to realize this sandstorm than I was. I couldn't think of a better way than this. If we didn't take shelter in the ship's coffin, we probably wouldn't be torn into pieces by the flying sand and rocks in the strong wind, and we would also be torn into pieces by the sand and dust. Buried to death.
The man from the desert camp lifted the lid of the coffin, pulled out the body inside and threw it aside. He lay down in it and closed the lid.
"I'm offended...I have no choice but to...let me borrow your coffin for a while..."
I opened the boat coffin next to me. Lying inside was the beauty's coffin we opened before.
"Oh...this sandstorm is not good for you...let's squeeze in..."
I turned the mummy beauty sideways and squeezed myself into the small boat coffin.
This boat coffin was made by hollowing out the entire tree. The space in the middle was just big enough to accommodate a corpse. Fortunately, this beauty had a good figure, and she had shrunk due to the sun today, so the two of us squeezed it over. It can also just close the lid.
The wind roared past our heads, and I slowly calmed down in such a small space.
This feeling is very strange... I think even Ning Caichen would not dare to hold Nie Xiaoqian's body and lie in such a coffin... We really don't have any special hobbies, it is really a last resort ...
I held this female corpse quietly, and time passed by little by little...I don't know if this sandstorm is over...
The smell of herbal medicine in the space is much stronger than before. After smelling this smell, I have a very smooth feeling, and I actually feel a little sleepy...
In a trance, I seemed to have entered a dreamland. In my dream, I seemed to see a Populus euphratica forest. There were a group of people standing under the tall Populus euphratica trees, including men, women and children. I saw a beautiful woman with her head Wearing a round hat and a long linen skirt, although it is simple, her beauty is alluring and can't be taken away from people's eyes. However, this woman has a look of mourning. She kneels next to a man and gently touches his face, but the man's face is as motionless as a piece of paper. ...
Then, a few more people came. They cut down a poplar tree next to it, hollowed out the middle, and put the man in...
When the scene turned, a curved sharp knife penetrated the neck of a cow, and then the cow was skinned alive!
Then, the bloody and steaming skin was wrapped outside the ship's coffin. The group of people sang a song. I couldn't understand the lyrics, but the melody was very familiar... and very beautiful. ...It is a very long ancient tune..
The woman lay beside the coffin that was about to be buried in the soil and said something, but I felt like the words were spoken in my ears!
What she said was...
"wait for me."
