Xiao Dong couldn't cry or laugh, seeing that this guy had saved up his money, he knew that these hundreds of yuan were a lot of wealth for him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info He doesn't really want to get it back, he just thinks that this person is an old fritter, and if he doesn't scare him, he won't be interested.

So he said with a straight face: "Then hurry up, if you let me know that you deceived me, I will not only take back the money, but also take care of you." ”

The man saw that Xiao Dong was tall and big, and he was definitely not an opponent, so he couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly ran away to find someone to ask.

Seeing that there was no answer for a while, Xiao Dong sat on the threshold by the way, took out a cigarette, and smoked it.

At a glance, there was yellow sand everywhere, and with the sweep of the wind, the rolling yellow sand was brought up, so that the whole sky was covered with a layer of white gray. In the desert, there is little else but gravel. Occasionally, you can only see strong, heat-tolerant desert cacti.

Due to the lack of materials, especially water resources, it is extremely difficult for people here to survive.

Still, it seems, they're doing pretty well.

Because in this village, except for a few local residents, most of them are from outside.

From some people's homes, it can be seen that many men and women dressed in very modern clothes come in and out. Obviously, they are either young people who came out to travel, or they came out to shoot...... After all, this desert is famous, and although the environment is harsh, it is also a place to enjoy the scenery.

It is said that the sunset here is quite beautiful.

Of course, it is not excluded that some travelers who are looking for excitement will come to explore.

Among them, there was a team that caught Xiao Dong's attention. I saw that they were dressed very plainly, among them was an elderly man, wearing a pair of reading glasses, looking very knowledgeable, with a kind of cultural temperament. The rest were three men and one woman, holding a map, discussing something.

Looking at their equipment again, there are more professional shotguns and tools, which should not be ordinary people.

Could it be that it is an expeditionary team?

Xiao Dong frowned, and found that this small team of five people, after cleaning up, was ready to go, heading towards the desert place. Seeing that it was already noon, could it be that they wanted to spend the night in the desert when they went in at this time?

Xiao Dong was a little curious about the identity of the other party, but he didn't pay attention to it, just watched the team, slowly disappearing in the wind and sand.

It didn't take long for the old fritter from before to run back, pulling an old man with a message on his face.

The old man looked too old, panting when he was pulled, and said vigorously: "You melon baby, you can't slow down, old man, my bones, sooner or later, you will kill you." Slow me down, slow down ....... ”

"Oh, what can be more important than making money, you should hurry up, people are in a hurry. The man urged.

"Didn't you ask me to ask questions, what are you doing with an old man?" Xiao Dong said angrily.

"Isn't this for the sake of explanation, did I bring someone to you?" Mr. Zhanma is a well-known hunter here, he is the one who has entered the deepest part of the desert, and if you have any questions, you must ask him. ”

"Xin Jie, you can't sell me for money. The old man named Zhanma was panting, and his voice was like a fan, as if he was going to carry it in one breath at any moment.

Xiao Dong scolded angrily: "Everyone is old, you can't take it easy." ”

"I'm not in a hurry, I'm afraid you'll misunderstand me and cheat you. The man named Xin Ji said.

"Old man, you take a break. Xiao Dong said.

Zhanma nodded, sat down, and while panting, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of holding a cigarette.

Xin Jie understood, and hurriedly took out a cigarette and lit it for him, just like serving his uncle.

Zhan Ma took two puffs of satisfaction, and spit out a deep burst of white eyes, and his complexion improved a lot. He didn't look in a hurry, squinted at Xin Jie, and said, "Gua Wazi, our rules have to be changed, and the previous three or seven openings will be changed to four or six openings." ”

"Oh, you bad old man, didn't you already say it before, why did you regret it again, I didn't take you like this. Xin Huang was suddenly unhappy, and said, "You are disrespectful to the old man like this, I pulled the business over, and I am the one who is the big one." If that's the case, I won't look for you in the future. ”

"Hey, if you don't look for it, you won't look for it, I don't lack you one, old man. Zhan Ma didn't care at all, shook his head and said, "Anyway, there are many people looking for me, you can look for the whole village, who is more senior than me?"

"You ....... Xin Huang scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and was very angry, "Old man, doing business, pay attention to integrity, how can you go back on your word and sit on the ground and raise the price." No, if you say it's okay, you can't change it. ”

"Okay, you go find someone else, and I'll run for nothing. Zhanma didn't bother to take care of him.

Xin Huang gritted his teeth angrily and said, "For the sake of old disrespect, why didn't you die earlier." ”

"According to my body, I can live for more than ten or twenty years, don't worry. Zhan Ma choked and said, "It's you, who pulled me to run away just now, and I didn't ask you for mental damage." Besides, you're just running errands, and you're going to earn so much, and your heart is too dark. ”

"You don't care how much I earn, I brought the business!"

Seeing that the two of them were arguing, Xiao Dong understood that he had found a middleman.

It's really a declining world, morality is declining, and even in this kind of place, asking a question has to be intermediated.

However, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and it is normal for everyone to benefit them.

"Okay, don't you two argue, okay?" Xiao Dong interrupted the argument between the two and said, "Do you still want to do business, if not, I'll ask the others." I still don't believe that you two can do it in such a big village. ”

Zhan Ma and Xin Huang were obviously weak-hearted, and bowed their heads silently.

"So, if your answer satisfies me, I'll be giving you two hundred dollars alone, and that's fine. Xiao Dong said.

Zhan Ma and Xin Jie's eyes lit up and nodded again and again.

Sure enough, rich people are ghosts, and money is really a good thing.

Zhan Ma glanced at Xiao Dong and said, "The thing you want to ask, I should have seen it." ”

"Should it?" Xiao Dong frowned.

Zhan Ma nodded and said, "Because I'm not sure, I can only say a rough idea, otherwise, you have to say that I am not authentic." Speaking of this rehmannia essence, I have to start from the year when I was twenty-three years old....... ”

Zhanma smoked a cigarette, smashed his mouth, and looked at the misty yellow sand in the distance with cloudy eyes, as if he was remembering something.

It turned out that when Zhanma was young, he was the most famous and powerful hunter in the village. He has hunted desert red snakes, desert wolves, and even desert tigers. At that time, Zhanma was infinitely beautiful and admired. He has experienced storms, traveled to the land of death, and died every time, and is the person who has walked the most deserts and farthest in the entire village.

Judging from Zhanma's look and the temperament of this old face, it can be determined that he is not lying.

Xiao Dong wasn't in a hurry anyway, so he simply sat down, took a cigarette in his mouth, and listened to the old man's affairs.

However, at the age of twenty-three, an archaeological team came in, saying that they wanted to find a guide, and they also offered a large sum of money as a reward.

Zhanma was young and strong at the time, thinking that if he could get this money, he would be able to marry a daughter-in-law and go home to live. Without even thinking about it, he agreed to the other party.

"There were a dozen or so of them, and it seemed, they were well trained, and each of them was equipped with guns and ammunition, and they should have been regular troops sent by the state. Zhan Ma took a cigarette in his mouth, squinted his eyes, and described, "There is a woman who makes me remember deeply, that figure, that posture, if I can marry her as a wife, it will be a blessing for a lifetime." ”

"Everyone has a love for beauty, so what's going on?" Xiao Dong asked curiously.

According to him, in the era of the older generation and even the older generation, there were indeed many expeditions in various parts of China. Most of them are professional teams sent by the state to investigate ancient civilizations.

If you guessed correctly, Hua Xuan's Mysterious Incident Investigation Department should be a product left over from that time, and it has developed into today's special department.

"Later, ....... Zhan Ma's face flushed, looking a little embarrassed.

Xiao Dong was immediately happy, and said with a smile: "Could it be that the girl was attracted to you, and then the two of you stayed and flew ......." ”

"How is it possible, I have only love for her, and no other thoughts. Zhan Ma hurriedly shook his head and said, "She is smart and capable, and her skills are much better than I don't know. I didn't understand anything at the time, just love from the bottom of my heart, and I didn't dare to say anything. ”

"Stained, first love. Xiao Dong smacked his lips.

Xin Jie coaxed beside him: "I said, old man, why haven't I heard you talk about such a piece of history before?"

"Isn't it a joke for you to tell you?" said Zhan Ma angrily.

"If you say it now, I'll be a joke too, ahahahaha...... clam. Xin Ji laughed exaggeratedly.

Zhan Ma glared angrily, too lazy to bother with him, and continued: "At first, I thought that maybe I would be able to do something with her, but what happened later subverted my imagination and made it difficult for me to accept ....... ”

"What's going on next?" Xiao Dong hurriedly asked.

"At first, I didn't know what they were going to do, only what they were investigating, so I followed their guidance and led them into a canyon. That place is a forbidden place belonging to the desert, and if you enter it, you will definitely die. Zhan Ma said with a somewhat excited expression, "However, I couldn't bear their instigation, and they added money to me, and besides, I was young and vigorous at the time, and I wasn't afraid of anything, so I didn't care." But when I entered it, I realized that the real horror began at that time. ”

"Wait, how do you know that that canyon is the land of death?" Xiao Dong asked strangely.

"It's all told to me by the older generation, and there are records in some ancient books left by the predecessors, which mark some places, and you must not go in, otherwise there will be no return. Zhan Ma said, "Our village, generations, dozens of generations of people have lived here, although we dare not say everything about this great desert, but the basic situation, still know very clearly. ”

"I see. Xiao Dong nodded, it is true, many places, people for several lifetimes, have not left, for various reasons, staying in their homeland.
