Chapter 0183: Deadly Storm
Black Storm, this thing is a strong sandstorm in the desert, and the folk also call it "Black Wind"!
The sand raised by the strong wind formed a wall of sand, and there was almost zero visibility in its passing. It is a disastrous weather phenomenon mixed with strong winds and dense sand and dust, which once made landfall in North America and caused countless casualties!
This is the result of the Black Storm after it has crossed a large area and landed in the city, if it had just formed in the desert...... It's going to be even more ferocious!!
In the northwest, the common people often call the Black Storm a Death Hurricane, because this side is close to the desert, and when the Black Storm makes landfall, it is the most ferocious time, and the damage will be greater!!
And now, in the desert!!
If a black storm forms here, we will face the sand that will be pushed up ten or twenty meters high in an instant, and as a result, we may be buried alive, of course, if we are lucky, we may be able to survive, but the probability is relatively small.
If there really is a Black Storm......
I shook my head fiercely and frowned: "It shouldn't be possible, the Shacheng storm in Lop Nur is between April and September, this period is the real wind season, November is no longer the wind season, how can there be a black storm!" ”
"This is a place cursed by Allah, who knows what will happen?"
The old man glared at me, and said angrily: "I said a long time ago, the sea of death can't be entered casually, Allah will be very angry, you have to enter......
This damn old man......
I almost didn't get angry......
When you gave you the money, you said that we gave a devout Muslim family the financial income, and Allah would forgive us for entering the sea of death, and now we have an accident and then regret it?
I almost didn't pull out my knife and wiped the dead old man's neck, causing him to splatter his blood seven steps, to see if he could still fill me with a magic stick......
Seeing that I seemed to have a tendency to hit people, Lin Qing hurriedly pulled me aside, and then said: "For now, let's think about what we should do, sitting here can only end up being buried alive!" ”
I gritted my teeth and didn't speak.
"Follow the original route!"
Cao Yuan, who has never been very talkative at this time, suddenly said: "Run all the way faster, maybe it will be in time, after all, except for the temperature on our side at the moment, the rest is still very calm, even if there is a black storm coming towards us, it is estimated that it will be two or three hours when we arrive, we still have time!" ”
"Follow the same route?"
Zhang Jinya's eyes widened, and the big gold tooth in his mouth was shining even in the dark night: "I said girl, your brain is not burned, are you, and you are still moving forward the same way?" ”
"Do you want to go back, then? In the event of a black storm, you must find cover if you want to survive, but is there cover on the way before we come? It's going to take a whole day to go back to that oasis, can you go back? Going back is a dead end! ”
Cao Yuan frowned and said: "I have checked the map, and now the position we are in is infinitely close to the ruins of the ancient kingdom of Loulan, if it was two thousand years ago, we may be on the border of Loulan now!" Loulan is an important town on the Silk Road, and it is also a necessary route between the East and the West, can their border be peaceful? There are more than 100 wars that broke out in this place, not to mention anything else, just when the Han army invaded the Western Regions, I don't know how many battles were fought here, in addition, there are many countries in the 36 countries of the Western Regions that have fought here, the Huns, the Yueshi people, the Wusun people...... The list is endless! But where there is a military brigade, then there must be a military fortress or some facilities left, if we keep running in the direction of Loulan, maybe we can run into some remaining military fortresses or something, by that time...... We may still be saved! ”
Reasonable!
After listening to Cao Yuan's words, our eyes lit up, and we had to give this little girl a thumbs up.
Damn, worthy of being a professor at Peking University, I really have a level, although I also know the history of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, but I am really not familiar with the geomorphological environment where historical events occurred, especially when I enter the desert, I feel that the terrain here is the same, except for sand or sand, now even if I let me go back, I can't find the way, I didn't expect this little girl to know everything, just this I have one word - serve!
At the moment, there is really only this one that is feasible, and as soon as a few of us put it together, we let the old man Ala Yi drive the camel team, and this time the old man also knew that he was running for his life, so he desperately drove the camel team to run wildly. In order to prevent the camels from running apart, except for the old man Alayi, who is a master of camel driving, we rode the camels with the reins tied together.
However, to our despair, after two or three hours of riding a camel at night, we still did not see the remains of a so-called military base, but felt that the camel we were riding was becoming more and more manic.
This is clearly a precursor to the coming of the Black Storm!!
Gradually, we could even feel the sand flowing underneath the camel as it ran!
"Not good! Look at the back of us!! ”
Suddenly, Zhang Jinya, who was on the very edge, screamed at the top of his voice, this sound also alarmed me, I quickly turned on the flashlight and shone it behind me, this photo didn't matter, my heart gradually sank to the bottom......
Because in the dark night behind us, a wall of black sand has been lifted, and under the propulsion of the strong wind, it is rushing towards us in a kind of overwhelming posture!
It's Black Storm!
Anyone who has never seen such a violent sandstorm will never know how terrible and magnificent it is, the sand wall formed by the sand is a dozen or twenty meters high, and the scene is almost in time for the wave of the tsunami, although there is still some distance, but I can already feel the strong wind blowing in my face.
The camels were also frightened, and almost desperately galloped.
It's a pity, where can their speed catch up with the black storm?
It didn't take long to run, we were directly engulfed by the wild storm, at this moment, I felt a large amount of sand whipped on my back, as if I had been hit hard, I even had some difficulty breathing at once, it was completely impossible to open my mouth to speak, the sand flew over my face, it was called a pain!!
In heaven and earth, I could not hear anything except the sound of the wind, in order to protect myself, I could only bury my head between the humps, at this moment the despair in my heart was indescribable, I could only hold on to the hump of the camel, and I rode the camel as my only hope.
I never imagined that one day an animal would become something I pinned my hopes on for life!
But now it's up to it!
There were so many times that I felt that my camel was so weak that my body sank and I almost fell into the windy black sand, in this case, once I fell, there was no reason to survive, and the next moment I had to be buried alive!
I don't know how long I ran wild in the black wind, and I couldn't see my partner, because the visibility was really low, and I didn't dare to open my eyes, I tried to open my eyes, but unfortunately I was immediately pounced on the sand, and the tears couldn't help but flow out, it was called uncomfortable, and I didn't dare to open my eyes since then.
An hour......
Two hours......
I forgot the time, I didn't know the time, but finally, when I felt no more storms around me and opened my eyes, I realized that I was already in an oasis!!
Survived!
I was overjoyed that camels were like ships of the desert, and they knew how to survive in the face of black storms.
I turned my head and looked around and found that my teammates were still there, Tsing Yi, Zhang Jinya, Zhou Jing, Lin Qing, Cao Yuan, Yi Shiting......
Everyone who came with me was there!
But this is also reasonable, several of our camels are tied together, and they will naturally be together when they run, which is also a benefit, because it is seven camels running side by side, so they can withstand the black storm, if the camel runs alone, I am afraid that it will be swept down by the black storm and buried alive!
"Hey, where is the old man Alayi!"
Suddenly, Yi Shiting pulled me back to reality with an exclamation, I glanced around, and suddenly my heart gradually sank - the old man Alayi is gone!!
He was riding a camel alone, and he wasn't with us, so was he buried alive?
This......
Without the leader of this desert, where will we go?
