When the poplar came out of the well, the iron ox continued to draw water from the well, filling all the jugs and water bags that had been empty during the day.

After eating some dry food, several people found a place to lie down and rest.

In the desert, it is hot during the day and cold at night, so basically everyone sleeps next to a camel, so that when it is cold in the middle of the night, they can rely on the camel's body temperature for warmth.

I didn't want to be asleep one by one, but suddenly a hoarse and terrible scream reached the ears of several people, and then the jade hummingbird also chirped.

Everyone was shocked to wake up and turn over and sit up, the scream was still clear in the ears, but it flickered east and west, sometimes high and sometimes low, in this silent and cold night, it was chilling all over the body.

The others were just that, but Max had never experienced anything strange, and couldn't help but blurt out, "What is this sound? Why does it look like a ghost?"

He spoke in English, which naturally no one else could answer.

Although Chu Changjiang was older and calmer, he had never experienced such a strange thing, so he could only turn his head to look at Bai Yang and the others, waiting for a few of them to give an explanation.

But Bai Yang and the others didn't understand what Max said, only Ding Lingling said in English: "I don't know if there are ghosts in the world, but I don't think this sound is a ghost scream!"

After she finished saying this, she translated it again in Chinese to Bai Yang and others.

Poplar nodded and said, "I don't think it's like a ghost screaming either!" And this sound is very much like two people screaming, and one is in the east and the other is in the west, but it seems that you have made an appointment to call me and I scream, which is deliberately scary!"

Several people listened carefully, and they all thought that what Poplar said was good.

Chu Changjiang translated this to Max, and Max said: "Isn't it possible that there are two ghost ......?"

As he spoke, he looked around in fear, but before he finished a sentence, he suddenly exclaimed "ah".

"What's wrong?" Chu Changjiang immediately asked.

"There! right there! I just saw a dark shadow flicker!" said Max, a big man of great majesty, who was now stammering in fright.

That night was already the ninth day of the lunar calendar, and a round of Xuanyue was hanging in the sky for a long time.

The dim and bleak moonlight sprinkled on the entire mushroom head, showing the overlapping of dark shadows, making the already mysterious mushroom head even more gloomy and mysterious.

Poplar Tie Niu got up at the same time, and Chen Xiaopang also stood up.

Poplar looked in all directions, just as he heard an increasingly terrible scream coming into his ears, and at the same time, as far as his eyes could see, a dark shadow shook and disappeared.

"Lao Bai, I also saw the black shadow, did you see it?" Tie Niu blurted out.

Poplar nodded, and was about to shout loudly to ask who was pretending to be a ghost here, but suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "I suspect that the desert bandits have caught up, everyone hurry up and find a place to hide, and protect the camels well, so as not to let these people shoot cold!"

They were now leaning against a rock with their backs, and although they could protect their backs from being attacked, if an enemy shot from the opposite side, the crowd would have no cover.

Several of them were experienced people, and as soon as they heard what Poplar said, everyone immediately took action.

Among them, Chen Dalin held a few camels to prevent the camels from being frightened and fleeing during the fight. He himself hid between the camel and the rock.

The others hid separately under several stone mushrooms, basically in pairs, one staring ahead and the other facing the rock. Once an enemy emerges from above the rock, it will not escape their eyes.

Poplar and Tie Niu also hid behind a stone mushroom, and Poplar Qiyun Dantian said loudly: "It's a member of the desert bandits, right?

"But no, we people haven't seen anything strange in the desert, who can be scared by this ghostly scream!" Tie Niu replied with a smile.

Before he could finish his words, suddenly there were several strange howls.

Again, it's not just a sound, it's a front and a back, a far and a near.

"What's this thing calling?" asked Max in a small voice.

No one answered him, for the sound sounded like a dog barking and more like a wolf howling, but it was quite different from a wolf howling and a dog barking.

It was so harsh that the camels were startled.

While calming the camel, Chen Dalin poked out from behind the camel and said: "Could this be the cry of the golden mastiff? I heard that the desert bandits have a pair of golden mastiffs, which are fiercer than tigers and lions, and I heard that they can't even be killed by bullets!"

"If you can't kill a bullet, then it's not a beast, it's a monster!" replied Iron Bull.

Suddenly, a louder howl reached his ears, and it was very close to the Poplar Iron Ox.

The Poplar Iron Bull Fang was startled, and a huge black shadow had already dodged out from behind a stone mushroom and swooped towards the direction where the Poplar Iron Bull was hiding.

The stone mushroom was only a dozen meters away from the poplar and the iron bull, and neither of them expected that this black shadow would quietly lurk at such a close distance.

Bai Yang was startled and immediately drew his black sword, but Tie Niu quickly raised his gun and fired several shots in a row.

The black shadow howled, and its whole body pounced in front of Poplar and Iron Bull.

The poplar iron bull pointed to both sides, and the black shadow "fluttered" to the ground, and stopped moving.

Tie Niu smiled proudly and said, "I'll just say, how can there be a beast that can't be killed by bullets!"

Poplar saw the black shadow crawling on the ground, and it seemed that it was very large.

But at this moment, he didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, and the poplar could only use the moonlight to project, just as he wanted to see what it would be, but unexpectedly, a strange howl entered his ears again, and several huge black shadows fell from above the stone rock.

This time it became hasty, coupled with the dim light and shadow, including Tie Niu, Max, and Chu Changjiang, the three of them shot at the same time with guns, but none of them hit the black shadow.

Instead, Chen Xiaopang let out a roar of "hi", and swung a shovel and smashed it on the head of one of the black shadows.

The black shadow howled miserably, rolled on the spot, dodged Chen Xiaopang followed by a shovel, and pounced on Chen Xiaopang.

Another black shadow pounced on Hongxing Ding Lingling, and Hongxing shot out two flying knives with a wave of her hand, but the black shadow was extremely flexible, and the flying knives actually failed to shoot.

The third black shadow rushed towards the Yangtze River.

Although both of them have good marksmanship, they have never experienced such a battle, so they are inevitably a little flustered.

Second, the two people who were blind in the black light did not dare to shoot at will for fear of accidentally injuring each other.

Seeing that the black shadow rushed closer, Max and Chu Changjiang could only dodge in embarrassment on both sides.

Seeing that the two of him were tight, Bai Yang left the red apricot Ding Lingling and ignored it, jumped forward with the black shadow in two steps, raised his sword and slashed at the black shadow.

The black shadow turned around to avoid it, but how quickly the poplar took out his sword, it still cut a hole in the black shadow's body after all.

The black shadow howled angrily, turned over and pounced on the poplar.

At the same time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a large group of black shadows galloped towards this direction.

Bai Yang glanced at it in his busy time, and hurriedly shouted: "Old Boss Rye Sichu, the three of you use guns to block the comers, and these monsters will be handed over to the rest of us!"

The three men held their guns in their hands but did not dare to shoot indiscriminately, and when they heard the poplar shout, the three of them immediately turned their heads and fired fiercely at the galloping horses.

Chen Xiaopang danced like a whirlwind with a shovel, and the black shadow that attacked him was already dizzy by his first shovel, how could he still resist his mighty shovel shadow?

After a few moments, he slashed the top of his head with a shovel, and suddenly fell to the ground with a scream.

Ding Lingling and Hongxing dealt with another black shadow, but they were a little powerless.

Ding Lingling's two short swords are suitable for close combat, but in the face of this fierce beast, where can they stick too close?

The red apricot flying knife didn't dare to shoot indiscriminately, so that the two heroines who were not weak in kung fu were forced to dodge by a black shadow.

Fortunately, Chen Xiaopang slashed over a black shadow and immediately rushed over to block the black shadow's bite.

At the same time, Poplar stabbed the third black shadow to the ground, and one of them jumped over and slashed towards the neck of the only remaining black shadow.

The black shadow was forced to stumble by Chen Xiaopang's shovel, and then it was slashed horizontally by Poplar's sword, and it was immediately slashed.

With all his strength, Bai Yang's sword actually split the black shadow's neck in two, and the blood from his neck spurted out, splashing Chen Xiaopang's body.

On the other side, Tie Niu and the other three shot down several figures, but more figures galloped to the front.

There was a figure who had practiced kung fu and flew down directly from the horse, intending to knock the iron bull directly to the ground.

I don't want Iron Bull to have a lot of strength, and since the last time he shared a golden python gall with Poplar in Crescent Spring, he and Poplar feel that both strength and agility are much stronger than before.

So he continued to shoot with a gun in his right hand, but with his left hand he threw a punch right at the man.

The man's volley was amazing, but he never imagined that not only did he fail to knock down the iron bull, but he was punched in the chest with a "bang".

The punch was so heavy that it made the man scream miserably, and his whole body flew out upside down, and he fell to the ground with a "click", and he couldn't get up for a while.

In the blink of an eye, the remaining dozen or so figures all rushed to the front and dismounted one after another.

But the people present are all martial arts experts, how can this group of people please me?

Bai Yang was worried about Chu Changjiang and didn't want him to rush to Chu Changjiang with a sword, but he saw that Chu Changjiang actually used his empty-handed kung fu to enter the white blade, forcing a man with a knife to retreat again and again.

In addition, Max also grabbed a big knife, although he had never practiced knife skills, but he relied on great strength, and a knife danced vigorously, but it also made the enemy dare not approach.

However, these two people were VIPs of another country after all, and Poplar still tried to get as close to them as possible, and a sword flew vertically and horizontally, pressing the two men who were attacking him to the downside, while paying close attention to the movements of the others.

Among them, Chen Xiaopang and Tie Niu were each attacked by two men, but Tie Niu was fierce, and Chen Xiaopang's family legend of digging 12 graves was even more powerful, so although the two of them were both one enemy and two, they also had the upper hand.
