Chapter 12: Tracing the Sand Sea
When the monster saw the sudden flash of light, it first froze in place for a moment, stopped screaming, and then looked around with its green eyes, maybe it had found something, and then it ran towards Qiao Benliang and the three of them on four legs.
"Mom! This guy is catching up, run! Chen Jie dragged his bloated and fat body, panting and running forward, after all, his whole body was too heavy, if he was running in a race, he would definitely not be able to advance to the level.
Among the three people, Lu Nengda was familiar with the environment in the desert, and he ran like a fly, leaving Qiao Benliang behind after a while. "Lu-Brother Lu, Xiaopang didn't follow, let's go back and find him!" Qiao Benliang looked back and found that Chen Jie was not behind him, and couldn't help but secretly worry about him.
Lunengda, the wild warrior who was running at the front, suddenly heard Qiao Benliang shouting to himself, immediately stopped, and turned back.
The fat man Chen Jie really couldn't run, and sat on the sand snorting and panting.
The monster jumped up and chased after him, so frightened that Chen Jie hugged his head and cried: "Brother Liang! Brother Lu! Come and save me! It's over, I'm going to be eaten by monsters! ”
"Uh......h Wow! Woo...... Wow! Woo...... Wow! ”
I saw that the monster was screaming and rushing towards Chen Jie, and the flames were constantly spewing out of his mouth, seeing that the fat man's life was about to be saved. At this fateful moment, suddenly, two white rays of light lit up the night sky and projected onto the monster's body.
Qiao Benliang and Lunengda arrived here in time, and the two of them used the light of the flashlight to shine at the monster's eyes, according to common sense, at night, whether it is a person or an animal, they are most afraid of shining on their eyes, and they will be blind and unable to see anything.
It was really developing towards this plot, the monster was flashed by the dazzling light, was frightened, screamed a few times, turned its head and ran away.
Lunengda waved the electric baton in his hand and said to Qiao Benliang: "Brother Qiao, it seems that this monster is particularly afraid of light, let's go, let's catch up and catch a live one and see what it looks like." ”
didn't think about it, but was stopped by Qiao Benliang: "Brother Lu, don't chase it, it's harmful!" ”
"Why, brother? Are you scared? Lunengda felt a little puzzled, he finally came across such a strange thing, he should catch it to see its true face.
Qiao Benliang said: "I just borrowed the light of the flashlight, and I have roughly seen the appearance of this monster, which is exactly the same as the one described in the ancient book - oh, yes, and the four-like bronze ware that Xiaopang picked up!" Its head looks like a pig, its body is like a dog, its tail is like that of a donkey, and its four legs are like that of a sika deer. ”
At this time, the frightened Chen Jie also got up from the ground, and asked with a trembling voice: "Brother Liang, are you...... Do you see clearly? Is it really the four dislike raised by the Lu people? ”
"Hmm!" Qiao Benliang nodded and replied, "It's safe to say that it's that prehistoric creature!" ”
Lunengda, who was standing on the side, felt more and more strange, and said to Qiao Benliang: "Brother Qiao, since you said, we are fortunate to meet tonight, then just catch it and study it carefully, why did you give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" ”
Qiao Benliang explained: "Brother Lu, the younger brother also wants to catch a living sample, but—you have all seen, this monster is short-tempered and aggressive, its mouth can breathe fire, and it is not easy to approach. Just now it was just stunned by the light for a while, and after it reacted, it was hard for us to get rid of it! ”
"There's also a very serious problem, and that is that this monster can't be the only one, and if we catch it, won't its kind come out looking for it? At that point, we're probably not going to be able to stay here any longer, right? ”
After listening to Qiao Benliang's explanation, Lunengda understood the truth, and couldn't help but praise: "Brother Qiao, you are reasonable!" Mmmm, that's right. According to you, a few days ago, there was another kind of monster in this area of the ancient city of Loulan, right? ”
Qiao Benliang said: "Yes! Now it seems that the temperament of these two creatures is different, the kind of creature that looks like an alpaca should be more tame, and the four are more violent. But, what is puzzling is - where exactly are these prehistoric creatures hiding? What does it have to do with those Hislus? ”
Lunengda gently patted him on the shoulder with his hand, and said with a smile: "Brother, my brother has been taken into the ditch by you now, and the gold has not yet fallen, but he is here to play a game of fighting monsters with you, hahahaha!" Let's hurry up and go back to sleep, now that we have found the traces of the monster, why worry about not finding its lair in the future? Gone, gone! ”
After sleeping until dawn, Qiao Benliang woke up. He got dressed and walked out of the tent, and saw that Lu Nengda had already packed the sleeping bag and put it back in the backpack, so he walked over and said hello: "Brother Lu, you got up so early!" How? Are you going to get out of here? ”
I saw this wild warrior show a simple smile and said: "Brother Qiao, we are so close, I am reluctant to leave you!" Besides, brother, I haven't helped you find those prehistoric monsters, how can I just walk away? ”
Qiao Benliang glanced at his packed backpack and asked a little strangely: "Brother Lu, you put everything in your bag, don't you mean to leave?" ”
"Hahaha, brother, it's not the same outside as at home. You have to walk around every day, and you don't pack up your things in advance, just throw them here at will, and when you come back to see them, you will either be buried by the wind and sand, or you will be picked up by the travelers who pass by! ”
Although Qiao Benliang has been to a lot of famous mountains and rivers in the past, and often camps in the wild for the night, after all, he is just a superficial play, looking for a thrill. His family conditions are relatively superior, and he has always been used to spending lavishly, and wherever he goes, he doesn't care about those items at all, and he doesn't have a big deal to go back and buy another set.
"Brother Lu, let's go to the place where the monster was found last night, check it out, maybe we can find any clues!"
With his intuition, Qiao Benliang had already sensed that these prehistoric creatures should be haunting that area, as long as he found their traces, he would not be far from revealing the secrets of history.
In fact, Lunengda also wanted to join in the fun. In his opinion, the wilderness adventure itself is a very meaningful activity, not only for the purpose of finding treasures, but also if you have the opportunity to encounter something like this and participate in the whole process, it will be even more worthwhile.
He smiled and said, "That's a must-go, and it's an eye-opener for you to take me on an adventure this time!" ”
After Chen Jie got up, everyone first put away the tent and some daily necessities, then ate some food casually, and then prepared to set off. At first, Qiao Benliang planned to drive all the way to look for it, but Lu Nengda did not approve of this, saying that it was better to go on foot, and it was not easy to see the traces left by the monster on the sand.
Qiao Benliang followed the advice of the wild warrior and gave up the idea of driving there. So, the three of them brought some dry food and drinking water and headed southwest.
The sun was high overhead, shining on the sand as if it had been cooked, and the temperature at this time of year was not too high, that is, more than 20 degrees, but the sand in the desert had a very fast ability to absorb heat, making the air suddenly become extremely hot and unbearable.
Lunengda wears a felt hat on his head, a long-sleeved shirt on his upper body, a pair of denim shorts on his lower body, and a pair of boots on his feet.
Looking at Qiao Benliang and Chen Jie, they both wear short-sleeved shirts on their upper bodies, slacks on their lower bodies, and sneakers on their feet.
"Brother Lu, little fatty, come and take a look, there are a lot of green secretions here, one after another, I don't know what it is!"
Not far from the sand dunes, Qiao Benliang suddenly saw that there were many green sticky things on the sand, he quickly stopped, and then beckoned Lunengda and Chen Jie to come over.
