Chapter 12: Rescue
I took a step back and said, "I know you're eavesdropping, but I deliberately told you that, do you need me to show you?" ”
Baisha said, "Did you say it? I don't know, I can see it. ”
I said, "See? ”
Bai Sha said: "You kept it in your left trouser pocket, and now that trouser pocket is deflated. ”
I grabbed the binoculars in my hands and was desperate.
Standing on a hard asphalt or concrete floor, you will feel like there is a way out. But being in the desert, the feet are soft, and taking a step into a pit is like a nightmare, and it is very desperate. Although this kind of geography can also slow down the opponent, as long as his physical strength is stronger, I will definitely die and there will be no escape.
I said calmly, "Come on." ”
He laughed "hey, hey, hey", "I'm kidding, you're serious!" ”
I don't trust him, and I think he probably thinks the time is not ripe.
I said, "I don't want to joke at a time like this, I'm just asking you, do you still want to save her?" ”
He said, "Of course, gone." ”
I said, "You go ahead." ”
"To be fair, let's go side by side," he said. ”
So, Bai Sha and I continued to walk forward, keeping a distance of 2 meters between us.
There is an ironclad fact - he already knows that I didn't have a stunner!
As he walked, a rather steep sandy slope appeared in front of him, and he suddenly quickened his pace and rushed upward. The flashlight he was holding was swaying around.
He rushed to the top of the slope, stopped to catch his breath, and turned back to wait for me.
Step by step, I climbed up.
After approaching him, I sensed danger again. I found him turning off his flashlight.
My flashlight is on. Relatively, I am in the light, and he is in the dark. And he's condescending, and if he wants to attack me, the terrain is too favorable for him.
I stopped and asked him, "Why did you turn off the flashlight?" ”
He said, "You will know when you come up." ”
I said, "Tell me, why?" ”
He said: "Ahead of them, they will see the light of the flashlight. ”
This explanation is reasonable.
I said, "You go first." ”
And he went on.
I climbed the sand slope and turned off my flashlight.
After walking out of the road, he spoke: "Mr. Zhou, to tell you honestly, during dinner, you told me that you were going to save my girlfriend with me, and my thought at the time was - to kill you halfway." ”
I was silent for a moment and asked, "What happened later?" ”
"I changed my decision," he said. ”
I said, "Why?" ”
He said, "Because of what you said." ”
I looked at him in the dark: "What did I say?" ”
He said, "For love. ”
He did eavesdrop on my conversation with Monsoon Pulp.
Then, he added: "Although I am not for any love, your words touched me. ”
The sky was dark.
Along the way, Baisha has been cloudy and sunny, and now, his face is finally clearer little by little. I found out that this kid couldn't stay up late, his eyes were red, and his face was pale.
Looking around, there was no dead poplar tree.
We continued in a northwesterly direction.
I said, "You love rice ears very much?" ”
He said: "I just want to make a home in Wucheng and settle down. ”
Then, he told me about it - early last year, he came to Wucheng from Kunming, met Mi Suizi, and the two of them fell in love.
A month ago, they began to discuss marriage, and Misui proposed that they must buy a house, and it cannot be mortgaged, it must be paid in full. Otherwise, her mother would not agree to the marriage.
Baisha had no choice but to rob ......
Speaking of this, Bai Sha smiled: "There is no house, there is no woman, what a real problem." In my opinion, China is not monogamous, but monogamy. I finally understood why my wife was called a big room, a second room, and a third room in ancient times. ”
As he spoke, Bai Sha stopped and looked to the left.
I also looked over - on the golden desert, sure enough, there were some dead trees, and our direction was 90 degrees, and at this time, the dead trees were about 3 kilometers away from us.
That's Linghushan's home, that's where Monsoon and Berry Juice lived, that's where Misui Zi was under house arrest......
I quickly got down under a sandy slope.
Baisha also lay down next to me.
I pulled out my binoculars and poked my head out to see that the dead poplars were looking at me like a bunch of people. The tomb was on a high ground, lifeless, and there was no figure in sight. Farther away, there was a piece of Yadan.
Baisha said, "Will they leave?" ”
I said, "Juice said that during the day they would go out to look for tombs. ”
Bai Sha said: "Even if they go out, they will take the ears of rice with them." ”
I said, "Not necessarily." ”
Bai Sha said, "Aren't they afraid that she will run away?" ”
I said, "This desert is a big cage, can she get out?" ”
Bai Sha stopped talking.
I kept holding the binoculars, and after more than half an hour, my arms were sore, and I put it down, and the dead wood suddenly became distant, and if the desert was a face, they were a few thin stubbles.
I looked at it with my naked eyes, and it looked like a dead tree was moving. I immediately held up my binoculars - not deadwood, but a strange humanoid!
He stood on top of the tomb and made a few strange movements in the direction of the rising sun, and then, he raised his hands in front of his face, and his body began to slowly turn.
Could it be, what ritual is he performing?
His face slowly turned to me, and there were two things reflecting, and I suddenly realized that he was also holding a pair of binoculars!
I quickly shrank my head and lay down under the sand slope.
Baisha said: "They appeared? ”
I said, "Don't show your head, there's a humanoid looking at us with a telescope." ”
Bai Sha turned his back to the ancient tomb, leaned against the sand slope, and did not speak.
After waiting for a few minutes, I raised my binoculars again and slowly peeked out, and the humanoid was gone.
Bai Sha asked me, "Is he still there?" ”
I said, "No." ”
Bai Sha said, "He's back in the tomb?" ”
I said, "Not necessarily." After a while, he might come out from under the sand from under us. ”
Baisha was silent again.
After more than half an hour, several more figures emerged from the ancient tomb, a total of 5, they are Baozhu, Baozhu's father, Linghu Mountain, and two humans, one tall and one short.
They were talking about something, and then, in turn, they walked in a south-west direction, like a line of small beetles.
I excitedly said, "They're gone!" This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”
Bai Sha jumped up at once: "Let's hurry over!" ”
I said, "Wait." ”
It wasn't until the people completely disappeared into the desert that I said, "Go!" ”
Bai Sha and I climbed the sand slope and walked briskly towards the ancient tomb.
Misui didn't stay honestly in the ancient tomb, among the dead trees, revealing her red T-shirt. Bai Sha also saw it, he directly pulled off a row of buttons, took it off, and then he ran forward shirtless, waving that shirt, shouting in his mouth: "Misuiko!" - Rice Ears! ——”
Yonhoko turned her head! When she saw us, she seemed stunned, and after a few moments, she ran towards us!
Ten minutes later, we met with Yonhoko in the desert.
Misui pounced on Bai Sha at once, and Bai Sha hugged her tightly.
I took a few steps forward, holding up my binoculars, watching in the direction the humanoids were leaving. They could come back at any time, and I need to be on guard.
After a while, I heard Mi Suizi calling me behind me: "Brother Zhou! ”
I put down my binoculars and turned away.
With tears in her eyes, she said excitedly, "Thank you for coming to save me." ”
I said, "He's here to save you, I'm just leading the way." ”
Yonehoko smiled and said, "I've already thanked him." ”
I asked her, "Where did those people go?" ”
Misui said: "I said that I was going to find the old C......"
I said, "Oh, old C......."
Bai Sha looked at me and said, "Do you know who Old C is?" ”
I said, "The oldest humanoid right now." ”
Bai Sha said, "What are they going to do with him? ”
I said, "If Lop Nur is a hot pot, they are also ants in it." ”
Bai Sha said, "What do you say? ”
I said, "Lop Nur is very deep, and there are too many secrets hidden, for example, there are some ancient tombs in the shape of sun tombs, and below, I don't know who has built one passage after another, and only one of them is correct, leading to the outside world. In order to prevent the young humanoid from defecting to the human fancy world, only the oldest humanoid knows the mystery, and when he is dying, he will tell the secret to the second oldest humanoid. However, our oldest humanoid was killed by us. Now, too, they are cut off from the outside world. ”
Yonhoko looked at Baisha and said, "What are we going to do!" ”
I said, "Misuiko, if you are gone, they will definitely go to the lake to look for you." I'll give you and Baisha a car, and bring you some food and drink, and you can find the passage yourself. ”
Yonehoko said, "We don't know which way to go!" ”
I said, "Those passages will give you some hints, it's up to you to choose the right one." ”
Yonehoko said, "But, we're leaving, what are you going to do?" ”
I said, "They won't hurt us, we have an agreement." Let's go. ”
Bai Sha suddenly said, "Mr. Zhou, I want to trouble you with something. ”
I looked at him.
He then said, "You bring back the ears of rice." ”
I was stunned: "What are you going to do?" ”
Bai Sha said, "I want to go and see their ancient tombs. ”
I said, "It's like a cellar, what's there to see?" Hurry up! ”
Bai Sha didn't move, his eyes were a little wet: "This desert is bare, and I can't find anyone else to help, so I can only ask you - help me take her out and give her to her parents, just treat her as my sister." As long as she's safe, I don't have anything to worry about. ”
This guy isn't quite right.
Mi Suizi said: "Baisha, what do you want to make trouble!" Didn't you come to save me? ”
Bai Sha said, "Yes, you have left them, I have to do something of my own." ”
I stared at him and asked word by word, "What's the matter with you?" ”
Bai Sha said: "I came to Lop Nur to find them. ”
