Chapter 11: Walking with the Devil
Ever since the baby was caught from the lake, Pulp has never talked about fishing again.
For dinner, it was instant noodles again, and I vomited the juice. Not an adjective, she really threw up. She buried her vomit in sand, her eyes were red and she was in tears, and she walked into the tent aggrievedly and ate nothing.
I'm worried.
If you can't eat the juice, it's troublesome.
After we were trapped in Lop Nur, I was most worried about who would get sick, and I kept giving everyone light salt water to avoid dehydration. We don't have doctors, and if someone gets sick, everyone is helpless.
Monsoon went to the tent to take care of the juice.
After dinner, Bai Sha walked to his tent again.
I stopped him: "White Sand! ”
He glanced back at me, stopped, and didn't come over.
I took the initiative to go over and said, "You must save your girlfriend?" ”
"Whether I can save it or not is another matter, and I would love to try it," he said. ”
I said, "It's too dangerous for you to be alone, I'll go with you." ”
He was stunned, and after a long time he said, "Are you sure?" ”
I said, "Not only am I going, but I'm going to be the captain, the captain of two." ”
He laughed, and smashed my shoulder with his fist like a brother: "Sir Zhou, no problem!" When are we leaving? ”
I said, "Leave at two o'clock in the morning and try to find the tomb at dawn." ”
He said, "Why this time? ”
I said, "They were all in the tomb at night, and we were sent to death if we went." Of course, they will kill you, not me. They won't be able to leave until dawn, and we'll take advantage of the situation and take your girlfriend away. ”
He said, "Wait! Why won't they kill you? ”
I said, "We have an agreement." ”
He said, "What if they find that the ears of rice are missing and chase after them?" ”
I said, "That's just a fight." I'm doing all this for you, and I hope you don't rebel at that time. ”
He said, "I will never be a friend if I am a fool of myself!" ”
I said, "I don't believe you. Okay, you go back to the tent and have a good rest, and I'll call you then. ”
He said, "Thank you! ”
When I returned to the tent, it was a little dark, the monsoon and the juice were not lit, and they were talking in the dark twilight.
I sat down next to them: "In the second half of the night, Bai Sha and I went to the ancient tomb. ”
Pulp said, "You're really going! ”
I said, "Go really well." ”
"I know their physical strength, you can't beat them!" ”
I said, "If you can't fight, you can fight." ”
She didn't even realize that I was messing around, and she said seriously, "You think people will talk to you about literature?" Than poetry and songs? If you can't save that rice ear, then you won't be able to come back! Even if you get her back, I'm not safe again, and that orb is likely to come and grab me again! Have you thought about any of this? Uncle! ”
I said, "What do you say?" ”
"Otherwise, you give the electric shocker to Bai Sha and let him go by himself." ”
I said, "Absolutely not." When I leave, I'll leave the stunner for you. ”
Monsoon said, "We're not going to rob people. ”
I said, "I set off with Baisha at night, what if in the dark, he deliberately got separated from me and ran back to the tent?" ”
Monsoon said, "You don't have an electric stunner, so what if he attacks you halfway?" He killed you and then ran back to the tent, is it not the same? ”
I said, "He doesn't dare touch me." ”
Ji Feng said: "Boss Zhou, he is young, he may not be able to beat you!" ”
I put my hand in the pocket of my pants: "He was afraid of the electric shocker on me. ”
Monsoon said, "Didn't you say you were going to leave it to us?" ”
I smiled slyly: "But he doesn't know. ”
Monsoon stopped talking.
"But," said Pulp, "...... Baozhu found that Misuko was missing, and she would definitely come to the lake to look for her! ”
I said, "After rescuing Misuizi, we will give her and Baisha a car and let them leave here and find their way back to Wucheng by themselves." ”
Pulp said, "Then I don't understand!" ”
I said, "What don't you understand?" ”
Pulp said: "The two of them fled in the desert, they must have died for a lifetime, and now Mi Suizi is in the ancient tomb, no matter how you say it, they are all alive and well, why do you have to save her?" ”
I looked at her blurred face in the dark and said for a long time, "Because of love." ”
Pulp was dumbfounded for a moment, and suddenly said, "Then I was in the ancient tomb at that time, why didn't you go and save me?" ”
I said, "Because you are voluntary." If you don't want to be there, I'm not going to let them take you away. Like now. ”
Pulp didn't speak.
I felt someone quietly grab my hand in the dark, and it was so tight, it was juice.
As the night wore on, the three of us lay down in our sleeping bags.
The moon in the sky is dim and yellow, surrounded by a halo of a car*, which indicates that there will be strong winds tomorrow.
Monsoon suddenly said: "I feel that there are many sun tombs on Lop Nur, and there is only one passage under each sun tomb, which leads to the normal world. Boss Zhou, think about it, we saw two sun tombs, they are not the same one. ”
I said, "Well, that makes sense. ”
"Now it's time to think about which one is right," said Monsoon. ”
I said, "It's useless." The hints given by the two Sun Tombs are not the same, so they can only go to the scene to ponder temporarily. ”
Pulp said, "When are you going to find it?" I'd rather pick any one, no matter what I see when I go out, it's better than this hellish place, I'm almost suffocating! ”
I said, "Wait for help, but it won't come, so we'll go find the passage again." ”
"Even if they show up, it's only in the video, and we won't be able to get into their car!" ”
I was silent for a while, and then suddenly said, "I have a way." ”
Pulp said, "What way?" ”
I said, "You'll know when the time comes." Go to sleep. ”
"Don't you say I can't sleep!" ”
I said, "Then I'll tell you, I'm bragging, I can't help it." Can you fall asleep? ”
"It's okay, there's no tax office in this place anyway," she said. ”
Next, I shoved the electric shocker under Monsoon's pillow.
Monsoon said, "On the way to the ancient tomb, you must always pay attention to the white sand; When you get to the tomb, you have to be very careful of those humanoids. ”
I said, "I know." ”
I have my own alarm clock in my head.
By about two o'clock in the morning, I woke up.
Quietly got up, kissed the forehead of the pulp, and then walked out in the dark.
The tent in the white sand was black and mushy.
I stood at the door of the tent and shouted, "White Sand." ”
Soon, he came out of the tent.
I said, "Gone." ”
He said, "Don't drive? ”
I said, "The lights were so bright, and before we could get to the tomb, they found it." ”
He said, "We'll stop halfway and drive again." ”
I said, "Lop Nur is so big, can you find it?" ”
He said, "So, we won't be able to find the tomb either?" ”
I said, "Hit your luck." ”
He said, "OK." ”
I took a flashlight, handed him one, and together I shone the sand under my feet, and walked northwest.
He followed me.
After taking a few steps, I stopped, turned back to him and said, "Are you afraid?" ”
He also stopped and said, "Don't be afraid." ”
Our flashlights were shining under our feet, and in the night, there were two black holes under his eyebrows, and I couldn't make out his expression.
The reason why I talked to him was so that he came up and walked side by side with me, but I didn't expect him to stop. Two people who don't know whether they are friends or foes walk together at night, and whoever is behind them takes the initiative.
I said, "Come here." ”
He explained: "It is safer for us to walk one after the other, you guard the front, and I guard the back." ”
I said, "Then you go ahead." ”
He walked over slowly, as if smiling: "Forget it, let's go side by side." ”
I said, "Why did you change it again?" ”
He said: "Go ahead, I'm afraid of falling into a trap. ”
In this way, I walked forward with him, about 2 meters apart. If he suddenly throws his flashlight at me, I have a chance to dodge.
We each have a flashlight.
In addition to this, I also carried the pair of binoculars on my back.
There is nothing but soft sand in the desert. If I fight him, the telescope is also a weapon.
He said, "Mr. Zhou, how is your physical strength?" ”
I said, "Good." ”
He said, "But, I feel like you're gasping a little." ”
I turned my head to look at him and saw that he was getting closer and closer to me, only 1 meter away! I ducked to the side and said, "Stay away from me." ”
He immediately distanced himself from me and smiled, "You're afraid of me." ”
I said, "You think highly of yourself." ”
He continued to laugh: "I know what you think. You really should be wary of me. ”
I said, "What do you mean?" Do you want to kill me? ”
He said, "If I kill you, there will be more reasons than sand under your feet." ”
I said, "My gut tells me that you're not so black-bellied, after all, I'm helping you save your girlfriend." ”
He said, "Save her? Unimportant. I think it's more important for us to take a walk like this, you see, it's rare to have such an opportunity, when it's all lonely, we are alone, chatting, and getting to know each other better. How nice. ”
I stopped, stared at him and said, "Baisha, what the hell do you want to do?" Let's get straight ahead! ”
He said very seriously: "I am not called Baisha. ”
I said, "Don't pretend to be a ghost anymore, that's what your girlfriend calls you." ”
He smiled: "What she knows is also my pseudonym." ”
It was pitch black all around, the moon looked even more strange, and the halo of the car* around it turned a dark red.
He continued: "Don't be too real to women. We all get it. ”
I said, "Stay in the desert and talk to yourself, I'll go back." ”
He said, "I'd like to ask you a question – are you able to go?" ”
I sneered: "As long as you dare to come close to me, I will knock you down with an electric shocker." ”
He also smiled: "It's a pity, you didn't bring it." ”
My head "boomed".
He heard everything!
