Chapter Twenty-Six: Alone
In the dark night, still in this desert desert, a woman's voice suddenly spoke, which really frightened everyone. Qiao Benliang hurriedly turned on the flashlight and shone towards the visitor, the light shook the other party so that he couldn't open his eyes, out of instinct, she stretched out her hands to block the light, and shouted: "Don't shine, it's me!" ”
Only then did Qiao Benliang recognize that it was the beautiful woman he met during the day, he turned the light of the flashlight to the side, and asked with some curiosity: "Sister, why did you come here?" ”
The other three people also breathed a sigh of relief, the flying fox Sun Houzi put the sword away again, Lu Nengda gently patted Chen Jie's head with his hand, and said half-jokingly: "Little fatty, you kid is so powerful, you have a pair of night vision eyes, you can see ghosts from so far away, and you look so charming and beautiful, this is obviously Nie Xiaoqian in "A Chinese Ghost Story"! ”
Chen Jie rubbed his eyes and said with some embarrassment: "I was also in a hurry, I didn't see too clearly, I just felt that there was a shadow floating in the distance, and I thought that a ghost had come out of the grave!" If I had known it was a woman, I wouldn't have been so scared! ”
Luo Fang listened to the conversation between the two, and only then did she understand what was going on, and explained with a smile: "I'm really sorry, everyone! I also had the courage to come to your camp in a big circle, and I came here to learn something! ”
"Oh?" Qiao Benliang looked at her suspiciously, feeling a little inexplicable, "Eldest sister, I have already told you during the day, and a few of us have just been here for a long time, so we don't know anything?" Hey, you're a pretty good woman, and if you dare to run around in the desert at night, aren't you afraid of any danger? ”
Not to mention a weak woman, just change it to a powerful man, let him walk in the desert at night, I'm afraid he doesn't have that courage and guts, right? I don't know what Luo Fang's heart thought about at that time.
In fact, the motive that prompted her to take the risk to find these people was because of what Qiao Benliang said before leaving. After she went back, she pondered it several times, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was not right, and she suspected that Qiao Benliang was deliberately hinting at something. Luo Fang is a person who likes to be more serious, as long as she thinks that there is a little possibility, she has to see the right time and try it herself to be practical.
After dinner, Yao Chunsheng gathered several team members together and talked about some basic common sense in the desert, how to deal with it if there is a dangerous situation, and told everyone not to leave the team and act without authorization, everything must obey the command and obey the order. Then I arranged the next day's work, and asked a few people to go back and rest early.
Luo Fang returned to her sleeping bag, thinking about this question all the time, and after thinking about it for a long time, she made a bold decision to go to Qiao Benliang to understand the matter clearly. Hesse couldn't see anything around the camp, but she was absolutely not allowed to use a flashlight to illuminate it, and she didn't dare to make a sound that might alarm her teammates.
She only walked forward in the dark, only with the courage in her heart, step by step and cautiously walked towards the southwest, because there were few obstacles in the desert, except for the sand grains under her feet, there were some sand dunes, and the road was quite smooth.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't you welcome me?"
Looking at these four men, Luo Fang could see that they seemed to still have a trace of caution in their hearts, so she smiled and said, "There should be no suspicion between us, we had better be honest with each other, and it's not bad to make friends!" ”
Qiao Benliang hurriedly said: "Of course welcome, of course welcome to your great master, eldest sister!" The problem lies with your what-what Captain Yao, his performance is too arrogant and arrogant, and he has no respect for others at all. You can come to our camp, my friends and I are so surprised that our jaws are about to fall into the sand! ”
Then, he turned around again and wanted to ask for Lu Nengda's opinion: "Brother Lu, what do you think about this matter?" ”
Lunengda is a rude personality, but he is also very open-minded, he thought for a moment, and said "hoho" in his mouth: "Ouch, I said Brother Qiao, here we eat yours and use yours, can we still be anti-guest-oriented?" It's up to you to decide, Xiaopang, Hou Zi, are you two right? ”
Chen Jie and Sun Houzi, who were standing on the side, responded again and again: "Yes, that's natural!" ”
"Well, let's ask this lady to come back to the tent and treat her politely, and then go about our own business."
Chen Jie went in and lit the candles, and several people followed. After sitting down, Qiao Benliang smiled and asked, "I don't know what this eldest sister is called, can you tell me?" ”
Luo Fang smiled and introduced herself: "My name is Luo Fang, I am a staff member of the Beijing Institute of Biology, and my position is a research assistant. This time, the institute sent a few of us to the ruins of the ancient city of Loulan, and the main task was to investigate a strange incident that happened here before. ”
"Oh? Ms. Luo, what kind of strange thing is it? Qiao Benliang pretended not to know, and deliberately asked tentatively.
Luo Fang didn't answer directly, and said first: "Well, hey, yes, I have already introduced myself just now, but I don't know what to call a few of you, if you continue to talk like this, does it seem that I am too rude?" Is it convenient to say? ”
Qiao Benliang said: "Well, it's all human nature, it's easy to say, it's easy to say!" My surname is Qiao, my name is Benliang," he pointed to Chen Jie and introduced, "This is Chen Jie, nicknamed "Little Fat", and the two of us are from Los Angeles, Henan. He pointed to Lunengda and introduced, "This is Lunengda's eldest brother, nicknamed "Wild Warrior", from Qingdao, Shandong. Then, he pointed to Sun Houzi, "This is Sun Houzi's eldest brother, nicknamed "Flying Fox", from Cangzhou, Hebei. ”
After listening to Qiao Benliang's introduction, Luo Fang asked him with a smile: "Then what is your nickname?" Why haven't I heard you talk about your nickname? ”
"Me? Where do I have a nickname? Qiao Benliang squirmed a little shyly, unwilling to say it. At this time, Chen Jie interjected next to him: "Sister Luo, I know!" I know Qiao Benliang's nickname! He once said to me personally that his name was "Meteor Butterfly"! ”
"Oh! Hahaha! Luo Fang couldn't help laughing, the silver bell-like laughter instantly broke the dull atmosphere in the tent, and several men also showed cheerful smiles.
The atmosphere eased, and the rest was much easier. Luo Fang looked at Qiao Benliang and said, "We came this time to track down the mysterious creature incident that happened in the ancient city of Loulan some time ago!" You haven't heard of it, have you? ”
As soon as Qiao Benliang heard this, he affirmed his previous judgment, and he really came for those monsters. He thought in his heart, should he have a showdown with the beauty in front of him? "I don't seem to understand what you--said, Assistant Luo, what kind of "mysterious creature"? ”
Luo Fang stared at his eyes, as if he wanted to see through his thoughts, and after a while, he said: "It is a nondescript, very peculiar creature, with a head like a sheep but not a sheep, and it also has two big horns on its head, and a hump on its waist but not a camel, if people eat its flesh, they will be poisoned to death and become a terrifying dried corpse!" ”
Qiao Benliang knows these characteristics too well, now give him a piece of paper and a pen, even if he closes his eyes, he can draw them exactly the same. Listening to Luo Fang's description, Qiao Benliang had already guessed that these things should be the only survivor in the car club, Zhang Shuai, after being sent back to wake up, he told the whole process, otherwise no one would know the truth.
It seemed that there was no need to hide it from this scientific researcher, Qiao Benliang had no choice but to say truthfully: "Ms. Luo, in fact, the four of us already know these things. Not only this one, but many more amazing discoveries, I can tell you about it right now, but only if you don't reveal it to anyone else, including your other three teammates, if you can do that, I'll go on, otherwise I'll have to stop there! ”
Luo Fang was secretly glad that he had taken a huge risk to come here, and he finally had a harvest, as long as he could find out the news of prehistoric creatures, what would it matter if he temporarily agreed to Qiao Benliang's request? So, she nodded happily: "Xiao Qiao, don't worry, my sister is here to promise you that she will keep a secret for you!" ”
