Chapter 440: Sleeping in a Different Place
Not long after dinner, Cansandy called everyone to the lake to see.
Ling Wenjiao leaned over to take a look and found that silver lights were flashing in the lake, swaying and swimming in the water.
The lake shimmered in the darkness with countless silver lights, reflecting a faint glow from the lake.
Xiao Dong said: "It's so beautiful, you can see this kind of scene in the desert!"
Everyone else is looking at the lake with a little obsession.
But then Cansandy said, "Oh yes, don't look too long. This kind of beautiful scenery is enough to see once or twice. I can't see too much......"
Everyone looked at him suspiciously: "Why?"
Cansandy glanced back at them and said, "Because it's so good-looking, I'm afraid you won't want to leave after seeing too much." ”
Everyone: "......"
After resting in the oasis for two hours, Cansandi asked everyone to leave.
"Let's go, there's a water source here. But you can't stay overnight here, or you'll get into trouble at night. ”
Huang Tengxiao asked, "What's the trouble?"
"Because this is where animals like to focus, desert wolves also like to come here to hunt. They are always in groups, which is more difficult to deal with. ”
Huang Tengxiao said: "We have guns, what are we afraid of?"
"Yes, we have guns," Cansandy said. It's easy to kill one or two wolves, but these wolves aren't stupid. They're smart, and they're very vindictive. If we kill their kind, they will hunt us down, and wherever we go, they will die again and again. ”
After listening to the translator's words, Ling Wenjiao said loudly: "Wolves all over the world have the habit of holding grudges. That's right...... And most of the wolves here are jackal species, and cunning is certain. They are very united and protective, and if you provoke them, it is normal to be retaliated against. ”
Xiao Liang said next to him: "In this case, wouldn't it be better to just drive them away?"
Huang Tengxiao glanced at him: "Wolves, can you get rid of them if you want to? If they are targeted, they will look for an opportunity to do it all night." ”
So it's impossible to get you to sleep all night!
In this case, it is better to change to a safe place to rest peacefully, as Cansandi said.
Xiao Dong said: "It's not a wild dog, if you chase it, it will run." ”
Cansandy added, "Besides wolves, something else will come." ”
Everyone looked at him blankly and said, "What else?"
The guide seemed to have some understanding of this, and said loudly, "Compared to these things that can be seen, we have guns in our hands, and we can scare them." But if it's a man-eating spider and a giant black scorpion in the sand, one of them is a big problem. ”
Huang Tengxiao said: "I did have these two things in the information I received, I heard that these spiders are very large, and they have a very strong ability to sense the temperature of flesh and blood. These two things also like to come to activities at night, and when they come out, they are not a dozen to dozen...... When they appear, they are often in the thousands, if not hundreds. In addition to these two, there are all kinds of poisonous snakes!"
After listening to the guide's translation of his words, Cansandi nodded and said, "That's right, they don't just like to eat meat, but there are a lot of them. And it's so poisonous that it often hides under the sand, and if you're not careful, it can come out of your feet, and then prick it and you're done. This is the water source area, so in addition to the desert wolves will come here to hunt, these poisonous insects and poisonous snakes will also come here to hunt!"
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that although this oasis was called beautifully, it was actually a hunting ground.
Because the water source gathers all kinds of prey, it attracts all kinds of predators.
After Cansandi packed up his belongings and left, after walking for another hour in the dark of night, they found a valley in the Gobi.
If this place hadn't been led by Cansanti, it would not have been so easy to find this place even if you knew the way at night.
But Cansandi is a good hunter and is still very good at leading the way.
When they reached the ravine, they found a leeward place and settled down.
After sitting down, Huang Tengxiao asked Cansanti, "This is so close to the location of that lake, will those wolves chase this side?"
Cansandy was helping to find stones to press the camel ropes, and as he worked, he replied: "The terrain here is a good way to hide our whereabouts, and then the wind above can't blow our scent, so I don't have to worry about the smell spreading and they will find out." ”
Ling Wenjiao observed the terrain here from above, and felt that what Cansandy said was right.
They are located downwind, and when the wind comes in from above, it will blow in the direction of the valley.
Ling Wenjiao walked around a few times in the direction of the valley tail, and found that the valley was very deep, and there were many beehive-like caves on the rock wall under the valley bottom, and those winds disappeared when they entered the caves.
It is not known where these caves lead, but one of the benefits is that the winds will disappear from these caves with the breath of the valley.
Cansandy continued: "Don't worry, we people there know this place, it's safe here. In addition to the fact that it is relatively secluded, there is another reason why those wolves dare not come. ”
Everyone turned their heads to look at him in unison: "What is the reason?"
Cansandy said, "Because it's ...... There are desert gods!"
Everyone: "......"
Ling Wenjiao rolled her eyes: "Can you say something that has a scientific basis?"
Cansandy smiled, "I just don't know why, those wolves never come near here anyway." I don't know why...... Therefore, it is said that this place was once the resting place of the desert god. With the breath of God, the wolf did not dare to approach. It's not just wolves, but other wild animals don't come near it. ”
Huang Tengxiao pointed to their camels and horses: "Then why can they come?"
Cansandy turned his head to look at it and said calmly, "I don't know, maybe it's because we got a pass from the god of the desert? ”
Ling Wenjiao pursed her lips and couldn't help but say loudly: "Where is it quiet? I think they are quite restless......
She looked at the horses and camels, and it was clear that the animals were not as calm as he had said.
Because if it weren't for Cansanti's reins in his hand, the horses would probably have run away.
On the contrary, the camels seemed very calm, and were not infected by the horse's emotions at all.
Ling Wenjiao remembered that when she first came here, these animals didn't seem to be so excited, what is going on now?
She was a little confused.
Cansandy couldn't hold it anymore and called out to two men to help him pull the horses. Then he took a jar out of his bag, and then he took a cloth and shoved it into the jar and wiped it, and then he wiped the cloth on the horses' noses.
Soon the horses fell silent.
Ling Wenjiao noticed the jar he took out and looked at it with some curiosity.
