A strong sandstorm is approaching, and the Western Expedition is forced to return to shelter.
The horses were frightened and refused to face the sandstorm, so the fat man carried the rain on his back, but he did not expect that he was carrying the unconscious rain on his back, and he actually ran in front of me. I had no choice but to open the fat man's backpack on his back and throw away the useless things in his backpack as I ran.
There were a lot of messes in the fat man's backpack, and they were all useless things that I couldn't see its use, so I had to put my hand into his backpack, and almost threw everything I could find, and finally there was only a coat and a few bags of food left in his backpack. I suddenly felt a lot lighter, and my steps became much lighter, and before I knew it, I caught up with the fat man's footsteps.
When the fat man saw me running closer, he immediately panted and asked me, "Lao Zheng, how far are we from the camp now?" Can you get to the shelter before the sandstorm arrives? ”
Hearing the fat man's question, I looked up at the wind-blown sand wall in the distance, and at this time I could already see the sandstorm forming a whirlpool of winds, moving forward at a rapid pace, and it was expected that it would not be long before we were swept into the sky.
And here we were some distance from the camp we had been stationed in, and it was certainly like a boat in the desert as we marched against the increasingly fierce hurricanes on our heads. It's hard to move, and there's no way to speed up the movement at all.
The tumbling sand clouds were getting closer and closer to us, and I grabbed the fat man's arm tightly. Just in case of very low visibility, you will accidentally get separated from each other.
I've always been very worried that the other members of the Western Expedition behind me will often look back at the back. However, the team that could still be seen before has now disappeared into the yellow sand, and I can only pray for them in my heart, hoping that they will not be in the thick sand. Deviation from disorientation.
I squinted my eyes slightly, and kept calculating the distance in my mind as I ran, and then kept shouting silently in my heart. "It's coming, it's almost there, hold on."
However, just as I kept encouraging myself. A darkness suddenly obscured the sky and hit the overhead. All of a sudden, it was as dark as night, and the wind was howling past my ears, and I couldn't help but secretly scream "no", the strong sandstorm was coming, and we had no chance to flee to the shelter.
My heart was cold, and the fat man was still running desperately forward, my arm was caught in his arm, and I could only let him drag his own machinery forward.
In the dark. I tried to break free of my arm several times, but the fat man held me tightly. The wind and sand were overwhelming, and I couldn't speak or open my eyes. In the panic of running, the fat man suddenly slipped under his feet, and then the whole person slid down with the rain on my back and the rain on his back. Before we could scream, the three of us fell on a pile of soft sand.
I lay on the ground, no longer feeling the sand lapping on my cheeks, and no longer the whistling wind in my ears, so I immediately got up from the place where I fell, and found that all around me and above my head were layers of bedrock walls like mille-feuille cakes, and I immediately raised my arms and shouted: "Arrived, finally arrived, we are saved." ”
At this time, the fat man, who was still lying on the ground, raised his head from the mound of sand, his face was covered with dust, and he coughed, and I hurried to him and asked him, "Are you all right?" ”
The fat man lay on the ground, coughed up the sand in his mouth, and said to me very dissatisfied: "Why are you still stupid, quickly lift Tianyu up from my back." ”
I found out that in order to avoid the rain on his back from being injured again, the fat man still carried the rain tightly on his back at the moment of falling, and he directly became the human cushion of the rain and lay under the rain of the rain.
I hurriedly reached out to help Tianyu, and at this time, Tianyu, who had been asleep, finally woke up, she slowly got up, and then stretched out her hand to pull the fat man up from the ground, said "thank you" to the fat man, and then asked, "Where is this?" ”
The place we are in now is the underground rock crater that collapsed from the ground caused by the explosion of the vehicle before, and the rain made her injured Yan Zòng's body unbearable because of the fatigue of the boat, and she has been lying on the back of the horse in a comatose sleep, not knowing the arrival of the sandstorm at all.
However, there was no time for her to answer this question now, the sky was already dark overhead, and it was pitch black that nothing could be seen, and there was a wind vortex sweeping over the top of the cave, splashing down a large amount of sand, staying below the entrance of the cave, and soon it would fall and bury it with sand. I hurriedly pulled the fat man and Tianyu and took refuge deeper into the cave.
The fat man took his backpack from me and took out a flashlight to light up the surroundings, and we were in a hurry to run for our lives.
The previous explosion shattered the bedrock at the top of the cave, revealing the cavern underground.
The underground side of the cavern stretched to the west, and the three of us didn't go deeper, but sat not far from the collapse, waiting for the other members of the expedition to the west.
Every minute passed, and I felt as if a day had passed, because the end of every minute was heralding the disappearance of the chances of survival for the other members of the Western Expedition Team, which made me how not to be anxious and live like a year.
A large amount of yellow sand poured into the underground rock cave from the entrance of the cave, forming a larger and larger pile of sand, which seemed to soon block the entrance, and the rock cave became more and more dark and unclear. The sound of the fierce wind is getting closer and closer to us, and it looks like it is about to roar past the top of the cave, but the figures of the members of the Western Expedition Team have not appeared for half of them.
My heart was twisted at first, and then it was half cold. The heart said: Other people may be more auspicious and less auspicious! He had clearly informed everyone of the situation, and they should have lost their horses and run for their lives.
However, there is no figure at the entrance of the shelter now. The explosion at the camp was so sensational that it was impossible for others to know where the pit of refuge was. Could it be that they were lost in the yellow sand, because of the darkness and darkness? If that's the case, it's really bad, and the rest of the Western Expedition Team is afraid that it will be difficult to have a lifetime!
As the sandstorm approached, the fat man and I fell into the underground pit where we had planned to take refuge, and the sound of the wind outside was predicting that the sandstorm was approaching. However, the other members of the Western Expedition team were silent, and they didn't even show up half of their figures.
Soon, not only a large amount of sand poured into the cave, but also a lot of rocks flew into the cave, and the three of us had to retreat farther away from the cave entrance.
After a long wait, the fat man finally couldn't help but ask me, "What's the matter?" Why hasn't anyone else arrived? ”
The urgency and anxiety made the three of us feel like a year, and the facial features on our faces were all twisted together, full of anxiety and worry.
It stands to reason that the rest of the Western Expedition should have arrived at this time. Fear was on my mind, and I became more and more worried. So, I said to the fat man, "They may have lost their way." Your horn is still there, you go and blow it near the entrance of the cave to show the way for the others.
In fact, now the sound of the wind whistling outside has overshadowed the sound of a qiē, and whether the sound of the horn can lead the direction of everyone is just a belief. But faith is a terrible thing, and as long as you believe that it is possible, then it will come true. I once heard an old criminal policeman say an allusion, that is, when a family member was kidnapped, as long as other family members and the police, there was no doubt that the meat ticket was still alive. Then, this kidnapped meat ticket will definitely be rescued alive, this is the power of faith.
At this time, I can only rely on a belief that the other members of the Western Expedition will be able to come to the haven alive and reunite with us.
The fat man really didn't listen to me and threw away the yak horn, he raised the horn pinned to his waist, and just as he was about to play, a gust of yellow sand poured in from above the mouth of the cave, and sprinkled the fat man all over his face.
The fat man couldn't help but curse, and lowered his head to brush the sand from his hair. Suddenly, a figure suddenly slipped down from the entrance of the cave and smashed the unsuspecting fat man directly under him.
The fat man was smashed by the person who fell from the air and snorted on the ground, and scolded with stars in his eyes: "Fat man, I actually used it as a meat pad for others today, and which guy who doesn't open his eyes, I didn't see anyone below!" ”
As soon as the fat man's words fell, the hole in the bedrock was like a dumpling, crackling and falling into a large number of people.
Looking at the familiar figures rolling in one by one, I couldn't help but burst into tears, and immediately rushed forward and lifted everyone up from the ground one by one.
However, before I could greet the members of the Western Expedition who had met after the catastrophe, I saw the playboy quickly drag the dazed Ge Laozhu, who fell on top of the fat man, and then said "go quickly" to me, and then ran towards the depths of the west side of the cave.
And the other members of the Western Expedition who fell in one after another also followed closely behind the playboy and ran towards the depths of the base rock cave.
I saw that the number of members of the Western Expedition who fell in was obviously wrong, but the playboy and the fifth master had already run away. At this moment, I heard the howling of the wind like a demon, and then countless sand and gravel poured into the underground cavern, and the relatively weak base rock on the top of the cave was constantly swept into the air with the sound of the wind, and disappeared without a trace.
When I saw this, I was stunned, and I said to myself: It seems that it is not safe to stay underground, and the entrance of the cave will either be filled with yellow sand, or it will collapse, and there is no hope of going out of the cave anymore. Staying near the entrance of the cave would pose a great threat to my life, and thinking of this, I immediately turned around and ran towards the depths of the cave.
