Chapter 56: Arriving at the Camp
Wu Kai and the others quickly rushed over, and after Hu Zi told everyone what we had just encountered, he asked the Tibetan mastiff girl: "Big sister, did you already know that this thing was with us?"
I know the reason for this question, the three dogs could not have caught the 'demon' for no reason, and must have been ordered by their master to do so.
That's why I didn't see her three dogs tonight. It turned out that she had arranged it elsewhere.
The Tibetan mastiff girl whistled again and called the dog to her side and said, "After the car overturned, I realized that someone was following us, so I let the dog out tonight, but I didn't expect it to be really guessed correctly." However, what surprised me even more was that he let him run away" After speaking, he glanced at me, and I said to myself, and I didn't let me run away from what I did.
I avoided her gaze and asked what Zabhi was just now, was it really the devil in the desert, as Beard said?
Zabhi is a local, and I think he must know even if there are some strange legends here. Unexpectedly, he shook his head and said, "Sand Devil, it is impossible to appear here, this is not the deepest part of the Taklamakan Trunk." Moreover, we will definitely not be able to run away when we encounter demons, so we can only go to see Hu Da. ”。
I asked him what a sand devil was?
He said that it was a man who died in vain in the desert, and that his soul was banished by Hu Da in this vast sea of sand and turned into a terrible ghost who would eat the traveler in the desert and forcibly drag the woman into a cave to mate with him. I think if it's really a sand devil, I will never let go of this young lady in our team.
I said in my heart that this person really can't speak, and sure enough, when I saw the Tibetan mastiff girl's face, it instantly turned cold.
Zabushi also realized his gaffe, glanced at the Tibetan mastiff girl in embarrassment, and stopped talking.
Beard said don't sleep tonight, arrange people to keep vigil, only three dogs are still not safe, that thing is a person or a ghost, it is better not to be careless.
When we returned to the camp, Wu Kai said that he and Hu Zi kept watch for the first half of the night, and let the team leader and Zabuxi keep watch for the second half of the night, and there was nothing unreasonable about this arrangement.
The Tibetan mastiff girl is a lesbian, and besides, there are three dogs, so it's not good to do this vigil. And I can say that I just picked up a dew, after all, the camp is too small to need so many people.
Luckily, nothing happened that night. Nothing was said for the night, and the next day we continued on our way.
To be honest, the journey has been overshadowed by the past few days, and the curiosity and excitement of encountering the desert at the beginning have disappeared without a trace in the past few days. The rest is boring and hot.
Wu Kai said that according to the itinerary, he will arrive at the place of the camel team this evening. I nodded wobly and followed the car in front of me.
Suddenly, the person in front of me braked suddenly, and I was caught off guard and almost put it on. I yelled and cursed and honked my horn.
Zabhi came down from the front and waved his hand at the back, and pointed to the front, as if he had found out what meant to let us go down.
We rushed over to take a look curiously, and immediately rushed down with a cheer.
In front is Haizi, the size of three villages, with crystal clear water and lush desert vegetation all around.
There were also birds swimming in the lake that I couldn't name, and I was so excited about this small desert oasis that I would have jumped into the water if it weren't for the Tibetan mastiff girl by my side.
In fact, someone had already jumped into it before me. The bearded and shirtless were playing inside, followed by Wu Kai, Zabuxi, and the team leaders all jumped into the lake to take a bath.
I looked at the Tibetan mastiff girl and saw that the girl was also walking barefoot in the shallows of the lake in the distance, as if she were ignoring our actions.
I hadn't showered for more than a week, and I was sticky and uncomfortable. It's a very enjoyable trick.
Beard complained about why the first team didn't camp here, and asked us to walk for half a day.
I said that you have a lot to do, this lake is so small, so you have to meet it. We happened to come across it in a hurry, so you can burn high incense and go there, if Zabhi had just walked on another slope, he would have passed by.
We stayed here for about an hour or so, and then we were ready to recharge the water and set off.
Suddenly, Zabhi shouted in front of us to come over.
He was the guide, and he just climbed to the sand dunes in front of Haizi to see the way, and he didn't know what was going on.
Curious, we found that there were more than a dozen tents under the sand dunes on the other side of the sea. It looks a little similar to ours.
The whole camp is silent, giving it an eerie atmosphere. Suddenly, the beard pointed in a direction for us to see.
We looked over and saw the carcasses of a dozen camels, all badly decomposed.
Follow the tent all the way to the carcasses of the camels.
I had a bad feeling that this wasn't the camp we were going to.
Things went for the best, and it wasn't long before Zabshi voiced my concerns.
This was indeed the camp we were going to, but strangely there were no people to pick us up, leaving only the carcasses of a dozen camels.
The Tibetan mastiff girl leaned down and observed carefully, and after a while, she stood up and said lightly: "The wound is torn, and there are traces of canine teeth. It should have been bitten to death by an animal."
The beard said that it was impossible, and if it was a beast, it would never have been left without camel meat. What's the deal with getting corpses together like this? Do you survive the winter?
The Tibetan mastiff woman pointed to the wound on the neck of the corpse and said, you see the traces of canine teeth here are obvious....
Before he finished speaking, suddenly Wu Kai gasped and said, "There are still human corpses there."
I was startled, and then I looked inside the pile of corpses, and suddenly a chill welled up in my body.
I saw a short and fat human figure mixed among the many decomposing camel carcasses. The man was already highly decomposed, and the flesh on his face was bitten and his face was no longer recognizable.
My head exploded, this man's figure was all too familiar. I don't dare to continue thinking, is that guy just dead?
Wu Kai and Beard endured their disgust and dragged the man's body out of the camel pile and put it on the sand.
I took a breath. This person is not Feijing, although this is also a short and fat body, but he is still significantly thinner than Feijing, because I can still see this person's waist. Feijing definitely can't be so slim.
Zabhi said that this was the guide in the first team, and he didn't know why he died here. Go as planned, this man should be waiting for us here with a caravan.
This man died in a terrible state, especially the eyes that were so wide that they were about to bulge, and I think he must have been extremely frightened before he died. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to have such a look.
I looked around the tents and there was no sign of panic, which indicated that the people had left in a very calm state, and the accident must have happened after they left.
I thought for a moment and said, "Search around to see if there are any other people's bodies."
It was at this time that Zabhi made a move that made us jaw-dropping.
I saw him suddenly kneel down beside the corpse, his eyes motionless and staring at the deceased.
