Chapter 64: Sandstorm
(I'm sorry, I went back to my hometown and encountered a serial bombing, and I broke off for a day.) At present, the author is emotionally stable, and finally finished writing a chapter before midnight)
Bai Long leaned into the front seat, looked out the front window, and said, "Where is the sandstorm?" I didn't see it. ”
"The yellow line is." Xuanzang observed and couldn't help but scold, "Damn, it's too big!" ”
"It's big, I still don't see the sandstorm...... No way! Bai Long's eyes suddenly widened, and he also cursed.
In a few words, she saw that the thin yellow line had expanded into a thick stroke covering the sky, and it was gradually revealing its true face.
A wall that spans heaven and earth.
The earthy yellow sand and dust slowly advanced from the horizon like a solidified tsunami. But this is only the illusion of an overly large form, and the fact that its movement can be seen from so far proves that there is not much time left.
"Speed test, FTB." Xuanzang shouted.
"It's an average of 70 meters per second, and it's expected to be here in five minutes."
Xuanzang pulled down the handbrake, and the car directly shook its tail and turned around, throwing the two people in the back seat enough. But the white dragon rarely did not reprimand him, but turned back and paid close attention to the movements of the sandstorm.
The pointer had moved to the limit, but this speed was only barely equal to the wind speed of the sandstorm, and Xuanzang estimated that if the sandstorm did not subside after an hour, they would only be engulfed.
He drove silently, observing the increasingly clear sand balls from the rearview mirror from time to time, with a solemn expression. The white dragon stared at the sand in the distance with wide eyes wide open, as if to engrave this magnificent sight that had never been seen before in his heart.
Only Tianpeng muttered to himself thoughtfully: "Strange, why is there a sandstorm here?" ”
"Isn't there a desert nearby?" Xuanzang asked.
"Nope. As far as I know, the nearest desert is a few hundred kilometers from here, and not in the direction ahead. "Even if there were a new desert over there, it would not be possible to form a sandstorm of this magnitude. ”
Xuanzang groaned: "It is indeed beyond common sense...... FTB, can you measure the specific range? ”
"The height of the dust is 5,800 meters, and the width of the cover is about 140 kilometers."
"This ...... It's impossible to hide. Xuanzang analyzed, "The normal land surface wind can't support such a large amount of sand and dust, and the wind speed is a little ridiculously fast." ”
"Then what do you say you are going to do?" Bai Long didn't notice that he had an extremely rare anxiety. As the sand ball got closer and closer, the width of the wall of sand and dust overflowed the boundaries of her vision, and an irresistible panic slowly rose from the bottom of her heart.
How is this possible, I am obviously an AI, how can I have such a humiliating emotion!
Although I have had a shameful sense of loneliness, I am afraid of ...... She had never been afraid of anything since she became conscious.
But as the Great Wall of Sandstorm approached, the white dragon really began to be afraid, and the kind of power that crushed everything seemed to be able to easily destroy her.
"If you want to find a way, don't let go of the throttle! Slow down and we'll be overtaken! She urged Xuanzang.
Xuanzang innocently pointed to the dashboard with his chin and said, "Miss, we haven't slowed down at all." ”
"Is that the wind speeding up?"
Xuanzang shook his head, glanced at the oil gauge reading, and was a little nervous.
Tianpeng frowned, suddenly raised his head and said to them, "Let's turn around." ”
"Pig's head, you idiot!" The white dragon scolded.
"Dust storms can move thousands of kilometres, and if they don't encounter an effective barrier on the way, they can be even farther. If we continue to flee like this, we will surely die. Tianpeng said.
"Then you can't turn around and rush back!"
"If you are fast enough to pass through the sandstorm, at least it is better than being chased to death." Tianpeng said and patted Xuanzang's shoulder, "Mr. Xuanzang, can your impermanent robot measure the thickness of the sand ball?" ”
"I just can't do that."
Bailong said: "Don't be kidding, how long do you think this car can last in a sandstorm." Xuanzang, this pig's head is unreliable, you have to think of a way! ”
"Take out some of the dignity of the Awakened Intelligence, Miss White Dragon." Xuanzang replied.
"When is it, don't hurt me, okay? Hey, I've put you two on the table, it's really been a mold for five hundred years! The white dragon said angrily, then rolled his eyes, and said, "I've thought of a way, go underground!" ”
Tian Peng recalled for a moment and said seriously: "I don't have the equipment for this. Liquid robots can seep into the ground, but what about the two of us? ”
"Nonsense, of course I can help you, stop now."
Xuanzang stopped the car, and the three of them quickly jumped down, and they all looked at the situation of the sandstorm, which now looked like a hill.
The white dragon melted the lower half of his body and seeped into the mud, stretching his body as far as he could to expand the space while digesting the soil layer underground.
"Is this possible? Will it collapse? Xuanzang asked.
"Just you talk a lot." After the white dragon finished speaking, he turned his upper body into a liquid state, spun and spun out a part of the dirt and rock fragments, and then opened to form a wellhead.
"Come into me." She said.
Xuanzang and Tianpeng glanced at each other and said softly, "Don't you think it'......?"
“…… It's kind of weird. Canopy whispered back.
Without saying a word, Bailong closed the wellhead and drilled underground.
"I'm sorry Miss Bailong, we know it's wrong, please be merciful and save us." Canopy said earnestly to the gap in the ground.
The other party was indifferent.
He asked Xuanzang for help with his eyes, and the latter walked to the edge of the gap and said to the ground in a dry tone: "Come up and pick up people." Otherwise, I'll tell Tianpeng to spit in it together, and do what I say. ”
"I rely on you if you're not so disgusting!" The white dragon cursed in disgust, and stretched out a part of his body into a pipe.
Xuanzang pulled the stunned canopy, and the two jumped in one after another.
"It's dark."
"It's dark."
The closed metal box was silently lit up with a faint silver light.
"It's a little stuffy."
"There is really not enough oxygen, and I don't know how long it can last."
"I guess I won't die."
There was silence.
"Sure enough, it's still a little ......"
"Okay, I got it! Humans are such a nuisance! The white dragon shouted angrily and began to absorb the organic matter around them to provide them with oxygen.
Tianpeng said gratefully, "It's much better now, thank you, Miss Bailong." ”
"Thank you, Mom."
Canopy closed his mouth in an instant and adjusted his posture awkwardly. Xuanzang, who was huddled in a small metal box with him, whispered a few words of comfort, telling him not to care, she is this kind of character. Then he asked the white dragon, "What's going on up there?" ”
"A few kilometres away. What are you going to do with your e-pet? ”
"Why didn't you remind sooner!" Xuanzang was shocked and made a gesture to climb out.
The white dragon snorted coldly and said, "Okay, I'll pull it down too." But it's much more convenient, so I don't have to put it with you. ”
Xuanzang breathed a sigh of relief, and then she asked Tianpeng again: "Pig head, do you want those things on the car?" ”
"Oh my God! My gear! He exclaimed, "Miss Bailong, can you ......?"
"Don't even think about it, I don't have that much time to care about the chops." The white dragon paused for a moment and continued to strike, "Well, it's already scraped over, it's spectacular...... Ahh......h Woo whoa, crushed by two air currents, exploded yes......"
Canopy buried her head deep in her arms, as if sobbing.
