Chapter Ninety-Four: Crisis Under the Yellow Sand
"Hey! I can't rely on the fat man, I didn't even know it had a leg injury! The fat bear waved his hand again and again to clear his relationship.
"Did you feel your camel hurt by something sharp?" I asked, looking at the strange wound.
"This vast desert is full of sand, and there is nothing sharp about it, unless it is some immoral fellow who has lost a control knife. By the way, the idiot must have crashed into someone else's discarded blade. The fat bear replied angrily.
Urati was still feeling sorry for his camel at this time, and when he heard the fat bear say this, he stood up and shook his head and said: "Urati's camel knows how to protect itself, it is impossible to hit the knife by itself, something must have deliberately hurt it!" ”
"Hey! Old man, do you mean fat man, I'm full, I'm going to abolish the camel I sit on? Fat Bear dissatisfied.
"Only the true God knows what you're thinking." Urat said sadly.
At this time, the rumbling sound of the sand gradually weakened, and the wild yellow sand also stopped, but I looked at the injured camel in front of me, and the uneasiness in my heart did not stop, the camel itself will avoid obstacles, and the fat bear has no reason to hurt it, so why is it hurt?
Just as I was thinking, I suddenly heard a terrible howl around me, and I turned my head to see that the American guy named John was lying on the ground holding his legs, writhing in pain.
Elanlyn and Mowson hurriedly stepped forward to check his condition, and found that his leg was the same as the camel just now, and suddenly there was an inch-long wound, and the blood was like a spring, flowing out incessantly.
Ai Lanlin immediately gave him a painkiller, and took out gauze to bandage John, but was stopped by Nangong Han, Ai Lanlin glanced at Nangong Han vigilantly, and asked coldly, "What are you doing?" ”
Nangong Han didn't answer, he was about to bleed blood when he picked up John's injured leg, but Ai Lanlin didn't allow it, grabbed Nangong Han's arm tightly, and glared angrily.
Nangong Han said expressionlessly: "If he doesn't drain blood and release poison now, he will definitely not live for an hour." ”
Ai Lanlin subconsciously let go of her hand when she heard this, but there was still some hesitation in her expression, and at this time, Urati, who was taking care of the camel, suddenly stood up and said excitedly: "Please believe him, just now my camel was almost going to see the true god, and now after being drained of blood, it feels much better than before." ”
"People are saving people, don't always spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." Zheng Tian sarcastically.
Ai Lanlin looked at John, whose face was pale and his body was shaking, and let go of the hand that was holding Nangong Han.
Nangong Han held John's injured leg, pinched the flesh, and drained out all the infected blood, and after a few minutes, John's physical condition improved significantly.
One after another, one animal and one person were inexplicably injured, and they all seemed to be in an instant, which made our group invisibly panic, could it be that there is some unknown secret hidden under the yellow sand on the surface of this desert?
Thinking of this, I subconsciously glanced at the yellow sand under my feet, it doesn't matter if I step on it, I was startled when I stepped on it, and I suddenly found that a red insect seven or eight centimeters long appeared under my feet, which looked very similar to a scorpion, but had more exaggerated arms than a scorpion, like two wide sharp knives, which were constantly waving and provoking me. If I'm not mistaken, this bug must have been the one who attacked Camel and John just now.
Without further ado, I immediately picked up my cane and went down, but the insect was so alert that before I could drop it, it had already run into the sand without a trace.
"What was that?" Zheng Tian also witnessed the scene just now and asked in a panic.
"It's kind of like a scorpion, and I don't know what it is." I said in fear.
At this time, I saw Urati suddenly kneel down, fold his hands on his shoulders in prayer, and tremble in his mouth, muttering something, and after ten seconds, he stood up and told us that the insect just now was a sword scorpion in the desert, and the sword scorpion was the messenger of the true god, and the true god sent them to drive away uninvited guests.
The fat bear listened disappreciatively: "What a thing! Didn't you just say that the true God was launching a cannon to welcome us, why did you change your tune now? Is his old man schizophrenic? ”
As soon as the fat bear's words fell, a knife scorpion suddenly jumped out of the desert and slashed his ass, the fat bear suddenly screamed in pain, Nangong Han's eyes were fast, and he suddenly stretched out his fingers to clamp it, and then clamped it with two fingers, clamping the hard shell of the knife scorpion in two. This reminds me of when he was on Zanglong Mountain, and he was like this, forcibly clamping a ghost sting in two.
The knife scorpion that fell to the ground in half was still struggling, and the fat bear couldn't get angry, so he covered his ass and kicked it twice before he stopped.
"Fat Bear, are you alright?" I asked, looking at his twisted face.
"What a fart! Are you okay to take a hit on the ass? The fat bear's face looked extremely painful.
"I said, why do you always get hit in the ass? Last time, in the ancient tomb of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, I also had time to post a talisman on my ass to exorcise evil spirits. I sincerely persuaded.
"Don't talk about these useless things, didn't that little white face just now say that the wound is poisonous? Which of you will come and drain my blood! The fat man doesn't want to lose his life just after he set off! With that, the fat bear bent down and looked at us expectantly.
"Fatty, anyway, you have thick fat, and toxins shouldn't be able to get in." Zheng Tian patted the fat bear on the back and said.
"The main thing is that your injured position is too awkward." I answered.
"Are you talking about human beings? Thanks to the fat man, I saved you! "When the fat bear saw that we didn't rescue us, he was very upset.
At this time, Nangong Han came over with a short knife that drained blood, and then I heard the fat bear crying in pain and happiness.
After dealing with the wounds, the fat bear and John can't move much, but this place should not stay for a long time, after the sand stops, we are ready to go on the road, the camel that the fat bear sat on before can naturally not bear a few hundred catties of fat, a few people discussed, let the fat bear and I sit on a horse, this can be a pain for my mount, for no reason to suffer the sin of this fat man.
However, as soon as we got on the camel, the roar that had ceased before suddenly appeared, and it seemed to be stronger than before.
I looked at the strange yellow sand in front of me, and the ominousness in my heart became more and more serious, and I suddenly remembered something, so I turned my head and asked Professor Wu: "Professor, what friction did you just say that Mingsha was caused by?" ”
"The friction between the moving sand particles in the upper layer and the fixed sand layer in the lower layer creates an elastic wave that causes the sand to produce an abnormal sound." Professor Wu said as he lifted his glasses.
Yes, it's the friction between the layers of sand, I pondered it carefully, and a terrible hypothesis flashed through my mind: the reason for the friction between the upper and lower layers of sand is probably due to these swords and scorpions scurrying in the sand, and they can make such a loud noise, proving that there may be not just one scorpion hidden under our feet, but hundreds or thousands of ......
