Taklamakan is the Sea of Death, and Alabak says this oasis is the Heart of Death.

The oasis doesn't look too far away, but it's an endless long road.

After walking for a long time, the horizon is still a little black, which makes people wonder if it is a mirage, I heard that mirages often appear in the desert.

When it got dark, the blackness finally looked like an oasis. But we had to camp nearby, and according to the itinerary, we estimated that we would be able to reach the oasis tomorrow.

Alabac said that the oasis was the domain of demons, and indeed, even I felt that the closer I got to the oasis, the faster my heart beated. It's like the human skin drum used by the necromancer, the sound of a thump, thump, thump

It puts a lot of pressure on me.

In a tent that I shared with Zifei these few nights, no one else laughed or said anything anymore, only Na Wan Camel thought he was funny and made fun of me, but unfortunately he had no one to talk to

Ignore him, I'll treat him as if he's farting. But he was still talking with interest.

You ignore this kind of person, he still thinks he is victorious, it's really a bit of a Q feeling, sometimes I think he's quite pitiful, so I don't care about him. I couldn't help it, so I scolded him two

Sentence.

Wan Camel is not afraid of me, nor is he afraid of me scolding him, I scolded him and he still smiled, but Lacey Mine and the boss stool suddenly looked at him, and he would obediently shut up.

After entering the tent every night, Zifei and I didn't say a word, and slept in our sleeping bags, even the sleeping bags were far away from each other, and even my sleeping bags were often attached to the tent

Inner wall.

Today, Zi Fei spoke first: "Tomorrow is going to enter the heart of death, be careful." ”

"Well, today and all day I feel as if the oasis is alive, and I keep hearing the oasis' heartbeat." I said lying flat and looking in the direction of the sky.

"I'm not feeling well either." Zifei also said.

"Zifei, I didn't do you any good if I got this artifact, why did you risk it with us."

Although Zi Fei has always said that it is to train herself, I still have to ask.

Zifei didn't say anything, turned around and kept her back to me.

The desert night was different from the rest of the night, there was not a single insect chirp, there was no roar of cars, sometimes it was so quiet that I wondered if I was deaf, and sometimes the wind blew to hear

Come and cry like a wolf.

Did you meet again tonight?

A wolf howl sounded for no apparent reason, and the tent was blown and shaking, and the sound suddenly sounded.

It's like the music of the ancient court, it's like the wind when doing red and white things, and it's like Mr. Taoist priest doing things. Or is it just the whining of the wind through the hollows of dead trees? Wait and go

I couldn't hear anything, and as soon as I relaxed and was about to think about something else, the voice came out again and went straight into my ears.

There was a "poof" sound, like something hitting the tent, and like something pounced on the tent, and I turned on the flashlight at once.

It was a face, a face pressed against the tent, and my heart jumped, I was startled.

The face fluttered on the tent, as if looking inside, I couldn't tell if it was an animal or a human face, and after many exercises, I was only initially startled and delayed for a second.

Quickly grabbed the crossbow next to him, and at the same time opened the safety and prepared to aim.

Zi Fei was faster than me, and she pinched a three-mountain trick with her left hand and pressed it down on that face.

"Crackling" made a tiny spark like lightning, and the face disappeared.

"Something!" I screamed, and rushed out with a flashlight in one hand and a crossbow in the other.

When I rushed out, I was still a little apprehensive, but when I saw Lacey come out, my heart stabilized.

Everyone threw themselves out, flashlights shining in all directions, but there was still nothing.

"Get dressed and assemble." Lacey ordered.

At the same time, he gathered all the remaining firewood, poured a little gasoline on it, and everyone roasted around the fire. I told you what I saw and heard in the tent.

"It doesn't look like a wolf, and wolves don't usually act alone." Lacey said.

"It's not a human being, that thing has extremely strong mana, if it's a human being, it's a master." Zifei also said.

Lacey looked into the distance of the desert and said, "It's a little weird, just in case, let's spend the night around the fire tonight." ”

"It's good if it's a wolf, and you can eat some game after a barbecue." Wan Camel said with a little grin.

No one paid attention to him, and he could still laugh at this time, knowing that he was not bold, but lackluster. No, it's a few tendons missing.

"Boss stool, mines, ten thousand camels, you go to find some firewood, by the way, you have to come back, you must come back within half an hour." Lacey ordered.

"Why me? Why didn't Xiaoshuai go? Wan Camel protested.

The boss stool gave Wan Hump a head, "Listen to orders, there is no room for you to bargain." ”

The boss stool is also an old friend of Lacey, and the camels are almost handed over to him along the way, and he lives in a tent, which is a little brother and a cigarette butt for this kind of old Jianghu

It's simple.

"Stay safe." I said to the mines.

Mine smiled at me, pulled out a double-barreled shotgun, held it in his hand, and without saying a word, climbed up the nearby sand dunes with the boss's stool.

and other mines, they left, leaving only Lacey Zifei and me.

"There are a few people, it's good that the old squad leader and Wang Yan are also here." I say.

Lacey said softly: "After all, Alabac has only been contacted, you can't be careless, people are harmless to the tiger's heart, the tiger is hurtful, if he only fights the tiger, only the old squad leader will be left there."

It's dangerous. ”

Well, Lacey is cautious everywhere, and this is also his professional habit for many years.

We sat like this, smoking cigarettes and warm water, and the sound of music sounded again, and we all turned our heads to see that it was from the direction of the oasis.

"Mine them ......" I wanted to stop talking, I was a little worried about them.

"They won't go in that direction, they'll be left for us to explore during the day, and that's what the mines know." Lacey said.

"Oh, then I'm relieved, but ...... the music?" I wondered.

This is Zifei next to him said: "In fact, as early as 2,000 years ago, this phenomenon was recorded in historical records, and Marco Polo's travelogue also mentioned that he heard about it in the western desert of China

This kind of music, says in the travelogue, often hears the music of various instruments echoing in the air, the sound of drumming and the clashing of arms. ”

"That's supposed to be this sound, this music actually existed 2,000 years ago, and I don't know how it came about." I exclaimed.

Zifei also shook her head and said, "The scientist's explanation is the flow of sand, that is, the roaring sand, I don't think it's so simple. ”

"Bullshit scientists, who can't explain clearly, like to explain randomly. In particular, there are a few so-called scientists who have been anti-qigong, anti-cultivation, and anti-Chinese medicine recently, when did they take Bao'er to scare him

A meal. I said indignantly.

Zifei ignored me, fiddling with a small stick on the fire.

Lacey also said, "If science can explain these things, you won't go to Taoism." ”
