Biaozi was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the 'tomb robber expert' mentioned by Sankra was referring to himself, so he said angrily: "Let your mother's stinky fart, you think it's a tomb robbery, just dig a robbery hole and go in?" You must know that what we are going to explore now is the ruins of the entire ancient country of Loulan, such a vast area, let alone me, even if a super archaeological team comes, it may not be able to clean up so much sand in half a year. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Tan Jia looked at the yellow sand in Siye, turned around and said to us: "What he said is very reasonable, it seems that this time we really came for nothing, in this case, we have to go home." But don't be disappointed, we still have a harvest, aren't there still a lot of burial goods in the tomb under that haunted house? As long as we bring it back, it will be a great achievement. ”

After resting for a while, he prepared to return to the haunted house, but this time in vain, everyone was a little listless, riding on the back of a camel, and no one said a word. After a while, we walked out of the site of the ancient country of Loulan, and the endless sand dunes began to appear in front of us, and we followed the route, turned the direction, and began to go in the direction of the haunted house.

At this moment, behind a large sand dune in front of them, there were suddenly many strange sounds, which sounded very chaotic, but they should be the sounds of wild beasts. The camels under us seemed to have a premonition of something, and neighed a few times, but did not listen to us, turned around and ran.

As soon as the camels were messed up, our formation was also messed up, Tan Jia said a little anxiously: "What is behind the sand dunes, why are these camels scared like this, and if we let them go down like this, we will disperse." ”

The camels were running so fast that we sat on them and the bumps were so great that I almost fell off the camel's back several times. When I turned my head to look, I couldn't help but be a little surprised, even if the others were all trained people, as long as their hands were strong enough to hold on to the reins on the camel's back, they would not fall off the camel's back. But what I didn't expect was that the weak Chen Zidie actually sat firmly on the hunchback, which surprised me a lot, this is really a person who can't be seen, the sea is incomprehensible, I really underestimated her before.

We desperately pulled the rope, tried to control the direction of the camels, and after a lot of effort, we finally stabilized them, only to find that we had returned to the old site of the ancient country of Loulan. We immediately rolled over the hunchback, in case the camels were rambling again, and we joined all the reins together.

At this time, the cry of the beast behind him became louder and louder, and it felt close at hand. I couldn't help but look back, only to see that more than a thousand meters behind us, many dense black spots suddenly appeared. The dense black dots are at least a few miles long, and I don't know how many are behind them, and they are rushing towards us.

Liu Feiyu took out the binoculars and looked at it, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly: "Not good!" It's a herd of beasts, too numerous to count, and there are all kinds of beasts. ”

Liu Dapeng was obviously a little disbelieving, and said: "We have been walking in the desert for several days, except for the wolves we encountered last night, the other beasts haven't even seen a single beast, how can there be a beast tide today?" ”

Liu Feiyu suddenly thought of something, and exclaimed: "I understand, the storm, it must be a storm, whenever a storm is coming, the beasts in the desert will have a premonition, so they pour out of their nests and flee towards safety, thus forming the beast tide in front of them." ”

"What then? This is another beast tide and a storm, neither of which is easy to deal with! Biaozi thought for a while, and said: "The beast came from the east, indicating that the storm is also coming from that side, let's change direction and go south, maybe there is a glimmer of life, don't stand stupidly, time waits for no one, hurry up!" ”

Everyone nodded their heads in unison, urging the camels to start heading south, but at that moment a sudden gust of wind appeared in the desert, bringing up yellow sand flying all over the sky and falling down on our heads and faces. We were blown by the wind, and we almost fell to the ground, which shows how strong the wind is.

The beasts behind us quickly caught up with us as if they were crazy, but fortunately, in order to avoid the storm, those wild goats, desert monitor lizards, blue wolves and other beasts actually ignored us and quickly ran in front of us. Some of the beasts ran slowly, and were quickly trampled into pulp by their companions behind them, and the scene was truly shocking.

The beasts were so fast that they were like a gust of wind, and they quickly left us behind. At this time, the wind is getting stronger and stronger, and if we are not careful, people will be blown to the ground by the strong wind, so we have to take out the steel rod, stick it in the sand, and go south step by step.

I thought that the beasts had passed, and the next biggest danger would be the storm, but the next scene made everyone feel suffocated. I saw that in the direction of the east, the yellow sand of the four fields seemed to suddenly come to life, and it was rushing towards us in waves.

After looking through the binoculars, I realized that the moving thing was not sand, but the desert marching ant with the thickness of a little thumb. The desert marching ant is the giant of ants and one of the most feared things in the desert, their nests are built under the yellow sand, and they feed on the small insects of the desert for a living, and they also eat carrion, which is not very common under normal circumstances.

However, when it comes to heavy rain or heavy storms, desert marching ants have a very strong premonition, so they crawl out of their nests in groups to find a safe place. A large number of desert marching ants travel, much more terrifying than the beast tide, and wherever they pass, whether it is plants or animals, they will be gnawed by them in a moment, and not even the slag will be left.

As soon as they heard that it was the desert marching ants, a look of fear appeared on everyone's faces, and they immediately drove the camels and accelerated their speed towards the south. However, the wind in the desert is getting stronger and stronger, not to mention us, even the camels are also swaying from side to side by the strong wind, and the speed can't be fast if you want to.

Seeing that the desert marching ants were less than 100 meters away from us, Professor Zhang was shocked and shouted: "It's not okay to go on like this, I'm afraid that the storm hasn't come yet, we will be eaten by these desert marching ants first, didn't we bring gasoline, now it's time to come in handy." ”

Seeing that the wind was getting stronger and stronger, the weak camels seemed to despair, and simply stopped resisting, and they huddled together, and all of them knelt on the ground, like ostriches, and buried their heads in the yellow sand, and never moved again. It saves us a lot of trouble, just go to them and get gasoline on their backs.

There were two barrels of gasoline, each weighing 40 kilograms, and under the command of Professor Zhang, we poured the gasoline around it to form a defensive circle. After making sure that everything was ready, the label pressed the lighter, and the flames came out and touched the gasoline, and suddenly burst into flames.

When the gasoline was ignited, it quickly spread to both sides of us, and soon it became a large burning ring of fire, and billowing black smoke suddenly came out. At this time, those desert marching ants had already arrived, and some desert marching ants who were not afraid of death were eager to try, but before they could touch the burning flames, they were burned black, and suddenly, we smelled the smell of roasted worm meat.

When the other desert marching ants smelled this fragrance, they immediately became restless, some of the desert marching ants were afraid of the high temperature of the flames and walked away, while the other part of the desert marching ants smelled the smell of roasted insects, but they were aroused by their appetite and went to eat the corpses of their companions.

After eating the corpse of a companion, the desert marching ants seemed to be unsatisfied, wandering around outside the circle of fire, as if trying to find a flaw and rush in to eat our group, but they were afraid of the raging fire from the gasoline. After a few minutes of stalemate, some of the desert marching ants couldn't hold back any longer and rushed towards the circle of fire.

Immediately, a large number of desert marching ants were burned to charcoal, but the desert marching ants behind were not afraid, and continued to move forward on the corpses of their companions. After rushing like this for more than ten minutes, the desert marching ants died countless times, but none of them could break through the defense line and burrow inside, which made us feel a lot more at ease.

Those desert marching ants were not stupid, knowing that they could not break through the raging flames, they no longer made senseless sacrifices, but they did not rush to leave, but waited for the opportunity to move. At this time, the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the flames from the burning gasoline swayed in all directions, and several times they were almost blown out by the strong wind, and the situation became precarious.

As he continued to add gasoline, he turned back to us and said, "The last bit of gas, if they don't leave after burning, we're really dead this time." ”

We thought that if the fire was not extinguished, those desert marching ants would not move, but after knowing that they were quiet for a while, we began to act again. In our astonishment, the desert marching ants gathered together, and in a short time, they formed basketball-sized ant balls, and before we could recover from our surprise, the dozen or so ant balls suddenly rolled towards us.

As soon as the ant balls touched the flames of the gasoline burning, the surface suddenly burned black, but this did not affect the speed of their progress, and the ant balls still rolled into the defensive circle. We thought that even if the ant ball rolled in, it would all die under the fire.

We were secretly rejoicing that the ant, which was known to be charcoal-shaped, suddenly moved, and then, like an egg bursting, suddenly a large hole opened in the middle. Before we could react, hundreds of desert marching ants crawled out of the opening. Only then did we understand that the reason why those desert marching ants gathered into a spherical shape was not to increase the speed of their advance, but to sacrifice some of their companions to achieve their goal of rushing out of the raging fire.

More than a dozen ant balls rolled in at once, and hundreds of ants began to drill out of the ant balls, we were startled, we wanted to shoot, but it was undoubtedly an anti-aircraft gun to hit mosquitoes, and it had no effect at all.

Those ants were very fast and numerous, and in a short time, there were a lot of ants crawling up on our bodies, their teeth were not only sharp, but also seemed to have some poison, and the bite was painful and itchy, and it was simply unbearable.

To make matters worse, the gasoline was running out, the flames were getting smaller and smaller, and when the wind blew it, it was extinguished all at once, which undoubtedly made matters worse for us. It was at this time that the desert marching ants outside the defensive circle were waiting, and when they saw that the fire was extinguished, they did not hesitate at all, and rushed towards us like a swarm.

In less than ten seconds, everyone's bodies were crawling with desert marching ants, and the screams were continuous for a while. Biaozi couldn't help but scold loudly, saying that he was famous for a lifetime, and he didn't die in the hands of zombies, but he was going to be buried in the belly of ants, which was too wretched.

While patting off the desert marching ants on his body, he scolded loudly: "I knew today, why bother in the first place, if I really hung up this time, the first person you can't stand is me." ”

Biaozi still wanted to pay a few words back to me, but there were too many desert marching ants on his body, and with one mouth, some desert marching ants took the opportunity to get in, maybe they bit the sore spot, and this guy couldn't help but let out a miserable scream. The others were no better, and the desert marching ants on their bodies were densely crawled over, and they simply became an ant-man.

At this critical juncture, a strong wind blew violently, and many desert marching ants were swept into the air along with the yellow sand, and we could no longer hold on, and the whole person was swept to the ground by the strong wind. The wind was still increasing, and before we could get up from the ground, the center of gravity of the person suddenly disappeared, only to feel the yellow sand in the sky and the desert marching ants hitting the body, and the whole person floated up like a kite.

At that moment, I heard the howling wind and the exclamations of my companions, and I watched myself get higher and higher from the sea of sand, and I thought that this time I was about to finish the game. In the face of the great power of nature, the power of all living beings seems so small, just like a lonely boat in the sea, in the face of turbulent waves, can only resign itself to fate.

The wind and sand were flying all over the sky, so that I couldn't open my eyes at all, and it was very difficult to breathe, I only felt that my body kept rolling in mid-air, sometimes high and sometimes low, sometimes drifting forward, sometimes backward. But I'm most worried about the camels, because all our material is on them, and if they are swept away by the wind and sand, even if we are lucky enough to survive the storm, we will eventually die.

In a daze, I don't know how long it took, but I felt that the wind on my body suddenly disappeared, and then the whole person fell directly down like a kite with a broken string. I opened my eyes in horror, and before I could even see what was going on, I fell to the sand, and all of a sudden I had to jump out of my mouth, and my whole body hurt terribly.

It took me a lot of effort to stand up, and when I looked at it so casually, I felt as if I had been struck by lightning, and I was blindfolded at once. I never dreamed that the moment I opened my eyes, what I saw was not an endless sea of sand, but a cluster of houses one after another.

The structure of these houses is the same as that of the haunted house, with walls made of sand and earth, but it may be so old that most of the houses have collapsed, and only a remnant wall remains. As my vision extended, I was surprised to see that there were such strange buildings on all sides, and I was in the center of this group of buildings.

At that moment, I suddenly thought of something, and I couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, if I guessed correctly, the group of houses I saw in front of me should be the former site of the ancient Loulan Kingdom. It seems that the storm just now was not ordinarily big, not only blowing away us and the desert marching ants, but also countless yellow sands, and because of this, the old site of Guloulan, which was buried deep in the sea of sand, was able to see the light of day.

I was ecstatic for a while, not only was I not bitten to death by the desert marching ants this time, but I also discovered the old site of Guloulan, which is simply a miracle within a miracle. I was happy, but I also remembered the other members, and I didn't know how they were doing, whether they were alive or dead, so I shouted their names and walked forward.

After passing through a dozen old houses, I suddenly heard a faint moan coming from behind, and I was overjoyed, so I followed the source of the sound. After passing through a few sections of the ruined wall and discovering that the intermittent moaning was coming from the room in front of me, I rushed in without much thought.

I glanced around the room, and behind the broken wall, I found a familiar figure, but I didn't expect it to be Tan Jia. She may have fallen hard from the sky and injured her right leg, trying to get up with great effort, but repeatedly failed.

When she saw me coming, there was a clear flash of joy in her eyes, but she quickly hid it. I immediately stepped forward to help her up, and she didn't resist and said 'thank you' to me.

I saw that her face was pale, and the sweat of the bean kept coming out of her forehead, so I couldn't help but be a little worried, so I said to her: "If you can't stand it, don't hold it anymore, you just rest here, and I'll go find Sankla to show you." ”

Tan Jia shook her head, bit her head and said, "I don't want to stay here alone, don't worry, I can still go." ”

I saw that she was so persistent, so I didn't want to say anything more, and with her right arm, the two of them staggered out of the room. The old ruins of Guloulan are huge, and although those buildings are dilapidated, some have even become ruins, you can still feel the former glory.

We didn't want to weave through the houses, which would be too cumbersome and block the view, so we found a street-like aisle, instinctively chose a random direction, and started walking ahead.
