Drifting Sand in the West Chapter 16 Black Tornado 1
Cannon smiled sheepishly.
"Look, what's that in the back?" Li Tong pointed in panic in the direction we came. The town's square is already filled with undead rakshasa worms, and they are spreading to the outskirts of the town. The ears are full of that rustling sound, and the scalp of the listener is numb.
"It's evil. Luckily we came out in time, otherwise it would have been dangerous today. Brother Li sighed. The feeling of escaping death is always fresh in people's minds, and it is imperative to avoid these plague gods as soon as possible.
"What now?" Li Tong asked.
Brother Li looked at the sky and pointed to the left front, and said firmly, "Forward." ”
The four of us each rode our camels to the left front, and we were chased by wolves in the desert, but now we are being chased by a pack of bugs. When you go back, don't tell anyone about it.
After about thirty minutes on the camel, the town was getting farther and farther away from us, and the terrible sound faded into the night sky. I wanted to take a good rest, but I had to travel at night.
Along the way, the cannon complained about the black bugs, saying, "If I get a glimpse of gasoline, I'm going to burn it all down." ”
Li Tong teased, "What about gasoline? The cannon complained that he was in high spirits, but he didn't expect to be doused by this girl with a basin of cold water.
At this time, the Taklamakan Desert was silent. The cold wind poured in from the cuffs, and the headscarf or anything didn't work. Li Tong was already shivering from the cold on Ou Tuo's back. I quickly took out the warm clothes from my backpack and put them on her.
"No, we need to find a low-lying area to avoid the cold wind of the night. If it goes on like this, a few of our bigwigs can stand it, but Miss Li can't stand it. I suddenly strangled the camel and said.
Brother Li and Cannon both said that there was no problem with me, and everyone looked around with flashlights. A low-lying area looms in front of you, just sheltered from the cold winds of the desert. Along the sand dunes, we thought about the low-lying land in the distance.
Half an hour later, we finally reached the low-lying ground. The cold wind that had raged before gradually disappeared, and was replaced by silence. It's finally time to stop, and it's a little scary to think about the disgusting bugs in the town. Luckily, this is the place where we will be staying for the night.
I ran around with the answer to find some leftover dry firewood from the past, and then built a fire next to it. Slowly, Li Tong's face gradually improved, but his nose was still red from the cold. Everyone gathered around the fire, and the chill on their bodies gradually disappeared. It was still a while before dawn, and tiredness gradually hit my heart, and I couldn't help but yawn. Everyone simply rolled up their clothes and fell asleep nearby.
I don't know how long it took, but my eyes gradually brightened. I rubbed my eyes, and it was completely bright. Brother Li and the cannon have woken up and patrolled the neighborhood. Li Tong Nanazi continued to sleep.
"Brother Seven, are you awake?" Cannon asked, and I nodded. Standing on the sand dunes and looking ahead, it's still good daytime, and even the morning sun is so mild.
"Are you all awake?" Li Tong rubbed his eyes embarrassedly, said apologetically, found some to soak his face, and then applied sunscreen or something.
"It's okay, Brother Qi just woke up." The cannon interjected, Li Tong rolled his eyes, and took care of packing up his things. After Li Tong cleaned up, everyone ate something casually, and took advantage of the fact that it was not hot in the morning to set off as soon as possible to try to walk more.
Escaped death again, but instead figured out some things. Anything is possible at any time, as long as you don't give up hope of life. Although the hot weather in the desert is still so scorching, everyone talks and laughs along the way.
In the distance, the sky gradually darkened, and the black clouds obscured the sun in front of them. And on the nearest mountain, the black clouds were overwhelming, as if you could touch these black clouds from standing on the mountain. Two kilometers away from us, the ground was dusty, and the yellow sand on the ground formed a spiral whirlpool, and all the surrounding sand and gravel were swept up in the air.
Everything in front of you indicates a bad phenomenon.
"Oh no, it's a black tornado." Brother Li said nervously.
"What's a black tornado?" All three of us asked.
Brother Li said anxiously: "I don't have time to explain so much now." Let's hurry up and find a place where you can shelter from the wind, this place is about to be blocked and attacked. ”
Hearing Brother Li say this, the three of us panicked and tried to find a place to shelter from the wind.
But all in front of you are bare desert, let alone Tibetans, and you can't even hide a mouse. Once this black tornado comes, all four of us will be swept away, and I'm afraid we won't even be able to find a hair.
The sky in our vicinity was gradually turning black, and to the worst of all, there was wind and sand rolling up around us. If you can't find a place to hide, it's really dangerous this time. The camels under our crotch were also frightened by the scene in front of us.
Just when everyone was desperate, Li Tong excitedly pointed to the distance and said, "Look, there is a grotto over there. "Following the direction pointed by Li Tong, there is a grotto in front of us on the left, but due to the perennial wind erosion and the burial of the wind and sand, it is almost out of sight.
What a send-off! After deciding, the four of us rode our camels in the direction of the grotto. In less than twenty minutes, the grotto was already in sight. The grotto in front of it has a different feeling, but it's hard to say what is different there.
The cave in front of you is about five meters high, large enough for people and camels to pass through. Suddenly, the stone in everyone's hearts finally landed. In the blink of an eye, the storm was approaching the entrance of the cave. Outside the cave entrance was littered with withered trees and shrubs. And there are some stones at the mouth, which are placed around in the morning.
The four of us hurried the camels to the cave, and it was pitch black. When we got to the cave, we put our camels and the supplies around us in place. Brother Li and I blocked the stone at the entrance of the cave, and the cannon also went outside to find some firewood to come in.
From time to time, the cannon braved the wind and sand into the hole. As soon as the cannon came in, we plugged the hole with a stone. "Ouch, I'll go, the storm outside is about to away." As soon as the cannon walked in, there was a burst of swearing.
Suddenly, a cold wind poured into the mouth of the cave, blowing a puff of dust in the cave. The sudden wind and sand choked us. Fortunately, the fire where the oysters had been planted was not extinguished by the sudden wind. Finally finding a place to shelter from the wind is really a blessing in misfortune.
When everything was settled, the four of us gathered around the fire. The storm outside was even stronger, and the whirring wind was like countless people wailing outside, while the sand and stones that had been sealed up outside kept hitting the stones at the entrance of the cave, and there were bursts of crackling sounds.
"This cave can't be razed to the ground by this black tornado, right?" Li Tong said worriedly.
Brother Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone, this cave is very strong." A black tornado shouldn't have that much force. But if we're out there at the moment, we don't know where we're blown away. ”
"Well, I guess it was blown to the sky. It's okay to blow us directly to the destination, saving us a lot of fatigue all the way. Cannon said inadvertently.
I teased, "And then fall off and smash it?" You're really brain-blowing. ”
