Chapter 58: The Storm (Part II)
The storm came without giving people a chance to breathe, and in just ten minutes, the wind around them could barely open their eyes.
We brought goggles and covered our mouths with scarves to keep the sand from blowing into our mouths.
Wu Kai shouted for us to put the body in the place where the Tibetan mastiff girl had just found a place to take shelter from the wind.
Beard and I reluctantly carried the corpse, and Beard said that his father didn't have this treatment when he died.
It is a ditch that has been washed out by water near Haizi. It is surrounded by sand dunes that are too high to be seen, and it is the location of a dead end. Hurricanes can't blow it.
But the wind is ignorant and everywhere rages on our ears.
Beard and I lowered the body a little farther away, but it wouldn't leave a sand pit in our sight, leaking half of its body.
The wind was noticeably stronger at this time than it had just been. I could barely hear the whining of the beard.
After dropping off the bodies, we hurriedly ran out to help them carry all the equipment from the car to the sand pit. I can't guarantee that the car will still be in place after such a wind, and it will probably be buried in the sand.
If you don't have something to light at night, you will probably freeze to death in this desert.
We had just poked our heads out of the ditch, and before we could stand firmly, we were blown into it by the wind.
The environment outside was much more serious than I imagined, although it was daytime, I couldn't see it from a distance of three meters around, and the air was full of yellow sand and my face hurt.
The two of us went back to the ditch and took the goggles with us, and then went out again. There is a lot of equipment in the car, and it is absolutely impossible for those few people to take it out.
There was no sight around, and we could only run to where we parked by feeling.
Our car was parked on the other side of the slope and had to go around the whole of Haizi to get there. This distance would have been reached in normal times, but in the current environment, the two of us walked for more than ten minutes, and we only walked half the distance.
A few figures appeared in front of them, I think it was Wu Kai and they came back, but I don't know how much equipment they had, and the next road will be very difficult if we don't have equipment.
Wu Kai: They were carrying large bags of equipment in front of us, and they collided with us. At this time, it was impossible to speak at all, and as soon as I opened my mouth, my mouth was full of sand.
I gestured and asked them if they had all the equipment.
Wu Kai nodded and pushed us back, and kept dancing and gesturing something.
The leader and Zabhi were also constantly urging us to run fast, as if something was chasing them from behind.
I look in the direction they're coming from, and there's nothing.
I had just run two steps when my head suddenly realized something.
What about the Tibetan mastiff girl?
Didn't the girl go back to the car with them to get her luggage? Why didn't you come back with them?
I looked around, I, Huzi, Wu Kai, the team leader, and Zabuxi were all there, except for the girl, even the three Tibetan mastiffs were missing.
I caught up with Wu Kai in front of me and asked him where the woman was and why she didn't follow.
To be honest, although the woman was cold, I could see that she was actually a very kind girl, which may be because opposites attract.
Wu Kaibi said that something on the other side of the car had attacked them, and the woman was leading the dog behind, otherwise they would not have been able to run over.
He said that the woman was very abrupt, and there were three dogs by her side, and told me not to worry, just go quickly.
I felt that it was a bit unkind to do this, and asked if I should let me and the beard go over to see the situation.
Wu Kai shook his head and said no.
I didn't feel comfortable going back to see what was going on, but by this time we had reached that sheltered place.
I was pushed and shoved into the ditch by the people behind me, and I suddenly felt lighter, and the oppressive feeling of the hurricane around me was less.
I pulled down the scarf from my mouth and shouted, "What about the Tibetan mastiff girl? What's in the back? "The wind was so loud that I couldn't even hear what I was shouting.
After hiding in the ditch, Wu Kai took out the sapper shovel from his equipment and began to dig the sand underground, deepening the ditch continuously.
In a short time it was enough for all of us to take shelter from the wind, and because of the depth, we could hear the speech.
And Wu Kai dug very skillfully, all dug in the dead corner, and finally the slightest wind in this ditch could not be poured in, and the beard was lit with a smokeless stove, and we gathered around the fire to keep warm.
Until this time, I still haven't seen the Tibetan mastiff girl come back.
Zabshi said: "This wind rose too fast, the trade wind blew just after it, fortunately there is this sea here, otherwise we would have been buried alive." But it's also good to stop the group of things from chasing after us because of this wind, otherwise we won't have a place to go. ”。
Beard spat out the sand in his mouth and asked him, "What about the girls?" Scraped away? ”。
Wu Kai said: "That woman's ability is much greater than ours, and nothing will happen." , what's that. Have you seen that? The last sentence was for the team leader and Zabhi.
They shook their heads. Zabushi said: "If it weren't for the woman who helped us press us down, we might have to explain there." ”。
I asked them what was going on, if something was attacking them next to the car.
Wu Kai was smoking a cigarette there and said uncertainly: "It should be a wolf, but it's a little different." ”。
The team leader interjected on the side: "Does a wolf look like that?" If it doesn't happen, Lao Tzu is very skeptical."
Then he told them what they had encountered.
When they went to the car, they came across the thing, there were more than a dozen of them, they looked a little like wolves, but they were half a body larger than wolves, and there was no hair on their bodies, just a blood-red layer of skin.
The thing was fierce, and when it saw them, it rushed like crazy, but the woman's dog was even fiercer. The ghost mastiff alone killed two in an instant.
It's also thanks to the three dogs that they dragged the bunch of things, otherwise they really wouldn't have been able to get out of the way. The Tibetan mastiff girl told them to go first, and she followed.
After finishing speaking, the team leader looked at me and said, "Don't worry, that woman will be fine." ”。
I nodded and said I hope so.
After another half an hour, the storm did not get smaller but became more and more intense, and it was completely dark all around.
I looked up at the sky, and it was like a scene from a disaster movie that scared me. It's a natural fear of nature. I suddenly had the illusion of the end of the world, which is not something that words can express. For a moment, my mind flashed through the scenes of countless disaster movies.
We all leaned on the sand and closed our eyes, and it was impossible to sleep in this situation.
Zabshi suddenly asked me, where did you put the corpse just now?
I pointed down with my chin. Zabhi poked his head out and looked.
After looking at it for a while, he asked, "What's wrong?" ”。
I scolded you old boy for having bad eyes? As he spoke, he stood up and pointed in the direction where we put the corpse, but he was stunned when he got up.
My head was a little knotted for a while, and I asked the beard, "Dude, did we put it there just now?" ”。
The beard looked in the direction I was pointing and nodded, "Damn, you can't see the man's half-exposed body...... Yes... What about people?
He looked around in surprise, which caught the attention of the others.
Wu Kai said, did you remember the wrong direction?
Hu Zi scolded back and said, "Something is absolutely wrong with this corpse, just burn it just now." You fucking crooked don't let you, this is a corpse.
I was at a loss for what to do, when suddenly a few shadows rushed in front of me, and I just wanted to shout over there, but the man had already arrived.
This turned out to be a Tibetan mastiff girl, and I saw that she was covered in blood and jumped into the ditch with a long knife in her hand. Immediately behind her were two green wolves, also covered in wounds, and rushed in.
However, the ghost mastiff was not seen.
The Tibetan mastiff girl took a few deep breaths after coming in and shouted, "Extinguish the fire!" Don't make a sound! ”。
So saying, he covered the flames on the smokeless stove with sand.
