91. The sandstorm is coming
What I felt the most along the way was the endless wind and sand in the desert, and even the silly cat that had been lying on its head couldn't help but get into the backpack to avoid the wind and sand.
"What a clever little ghost. ”
Chu An muttered and laughed, he couldn't help but take off his underwear, poured some well water to cover his nose and mouth, to prevent the wind and sand from entering his mouth: "It's okay this season now, once it's autumn, it's also the wind season in the desert."
At that time, entering the desert was undoubtedly looking for death, sandstorms above level 10 were commonplace, and those above level 15 came once every three days.
Before each sandstorm, the sky turns purple, the temperature becomes unusually hot, approaching fifty or sixty degrees, and the camels become extremely restless, they can predict the arrival of the sandstorm in advance.
If all of the above happens, then it means that a sandstorm is coming, please find a suitable place to take shelter, there is really no way, but also rely on a solid rock.
Perhaps, wait for you to get away with your life. ”
In a blink of an eye, it was close to noon, Chu An casually ate some boiled goose eggs prepared in the morning on the camel, and drank a few sips of water.
He couldn't help but move his buttocks, and the thick hair that had been sitting all morning, plus the hot weather, was inevitably a little uncomfortable, but compared to walking on his own.
That's still too much comfort.
"It's different to have yellow hair. ”
Yellow hair is the name of the camel, Chu An has always been very weak about naming it, just like the dune cat, he directly called it homonym: silly cat.
Anyway, this little guy can't understand it, every time he calls it, he responds happily, and it's quite happy like that, but as everyone knows, the audience has long hated it.
Such a beautiful and smart kitten, it is called a stupid cat, it is really unladylike, hateful, hateful...
He touched the yellow-haired children's shoes, a pinch of golden dull hair on his forehead, and exclaimed: "I left this morning alone, I was almost a day's journey yesterday, and it seems that I am going to finish work early." said that it was good to survive, but why did it change its flavor again, and it had no effect at all, it was really a failure. ”
The smug and a little little appearance really makes people want to print the size 41 soles on his size 45 face.
"Don't pretend to beep, pretend to beep and be struck by lightning!"
"God, send down a divine thunder and kill this demon. ”
Chu An snorted: "You bad guys, you just can't see me well, don't say anything, friends." ”
Because of the camel, he did not stop to rest at noon, but continued to move forward against the bright sun.
……
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
Another 60 kilometers or so.
Along the way, talk about the trouble, and have a lot of fun.
Suddenly, there was a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the camel suddenly became restless, Chu An was startled, and hurriedly comforted, and at the same time raised his head to scan the surrounding sky, and in the northwest sky, a large purple-orange cloud appeared, and the soldiers were approaching the city.
Then, the wind and sand became stronger, the temperature rose slightly, and the wind swept the yellow sand.
"It's too face-saving, isn't it?"
Chu An couldn't help but smile bitterly, as soon as the front foot introduced the omen of the coming sandstorm, the back foot followed, which was also ......
He looked into the distance, all flat and with no place to avoid the sandstorm, and recalled the mysterious treasure map in his mind, looking for a place to hide.
However, the map was too rudimentary, and only recorded the location of some key ancient wells, and the previous oasis, which could not help him much.
"The sandstorm is coming. ”
Chu An said solemnly, and he didn't care about explaining so much to the audience, so he hurriedly waved the long stick in his hand and slapped the camel's buttocks, driving it forward and looking for a safe place to take refuge.
"Ang~~"
The camel screamed, and as a last resort, it ran quickly, and the silly cat in the backpack was also awakened by this tense atmosphere, and the probe came out to check.
Meow~~~
What's the situation???
"Go back. ”
Chu An hurriedly stuffed it into his backpack, closed the zipper by the way, and lay on the camel with his arms, he used his arms to control the camel's head tightly, so that it would not deviate from the direction, and go all the way south, looking for a place to live.
"Ang~~"
The camel's screams kept coming.
Its loyalty, little by little, is declining.
"Camels are timid, and if they encounter a sandstorm in the desert, they will immediately squat down in place, bury their heads in their forelimbs, and wait until the sandstorm is gone.
Their eyes, mouths, and nostrils are covered with thick hair, which is inevitable from the wind and sand, and camels are born for the desert.
But I'm different, if I let it lie still and wait quietly for the sandstorm to hit, then I will definitely die in the sand.
The power of nature is simply not something that human beings can compete with. ”
"Aung Aung Aung ~~~"
The camels kept struggling and screaming.
Chu An could only push harder and harder, and he must not stop here to control it, he used ten fingers hard, and even pinched the bloody handprints on both sides of his head.
There was no shelter along the way, but the wind and sand were getting stronger and stronger, and Chu An knew very well that this was just an appetizer, and a more violent storm was coming.
He could only pray that the familiar crimson would appear again not far ahead, which was Chu An's last hope, he remembered the place marked on the map, and he also knew the speed of the camel's journey.
If nothing else, Tianji Gujing should be somewhere ahead, he is not familiar with the terrain here, and he doesn't know where to take refuge, so he can only move in this direction.
"Ang~~"
The camel let out a terrible scream, knelt directly on the yellow sand, and buried its head deep in its forelimbs.
"Damn it!"
Chu An couldn't help but scold angrily, turned his head and glanced behind him, there was chaos, pouring sand and suffocating ash everywhere, which was terrifying.
He hurriedly turned over and ran for his life, just like Hollywood's post-apocalyptic blockbusters, but blockbusters are blockbusters after all, and the speed of people can never outrun the power of nature.
A minute later,
The tyrannical yellow sand engulfed him instantly, the picture began to shake, and the camera instantly switched to the first perspective, at this time, the audience's speakers were also full of whining winds, just like the world-famous piano song "Wild Bees Flying", the buzzing sand grains whistled by, making the scalp numb and the hairs stood up.
"Damn, what's the situation?"
"I'm scared to pee, this day it will change. ”
"This is the real natural disaster, and Hollywood blockbusters count as a ball. ”
"Chu Ye, are you okay, are you okay? ”
The capricious weather made people clearly aware of the cruelty and shock of nature, one minute, Chu An was still talking and laughing with them, and the next minute the sandstorm suddenly hit and drowned him.
Life and death are uncertain.
