The explosion of a car outside the camp was quickly identified as a deliberate arson.

But what I don't understand is: why take such a risk when setting fires can be easily detected on a crowded night?

If the purpose of the prisoner is to hold us back, there are many ways to do it easily. For example, making hands and feet in food is easy and simple, and it is not easy to be discovered, so there will be no mistakes.

Could it be that this man who did not want to hurt others or was afraid of injuring himself by mistake, so he chose a more risky way to set fire?

Although the act of arson is risky, it can effectively prevent people who you don't want to hurt and kill people who want to hurt. This reminds me of Kunpachi, who was patrolling with all his men, and although his tent was near the point of the explosion of the fire, he had a reason to lead his men to avoid this disaster, and the fire was very close to my tent and that of the fat man, which made me inevitably feel a little angry.

Kunba successfully ensured the safety of the camel team at the first time of the accident, which makes some sense. Perhaps, Kunba's layout is beyond the scope of his own calculations, and he has already calculated that someone will suspect him, so he acts like protecting the herd, first exonerating himself from suspicion, and then looking for an opportunity to attack later.

Thinking of this, I said in my heart: It seems that I will not have a stable sleep in the future. In order to ensure the safety of the herd, it is better to carry out the night patrol by yourself in the future.

Although the cause of the fire was found. However, the black hand behind the scenes has not been revealed, and this matter should not be publicized, first, for fear of startling the snake, and second, it will shake the morale of the army. Now that there are many wounded in the Western Expedition, the investigation of arson can only be resolved later. The most urgent task is how to deal with the next issues.

The fifth master organized an extraordinary meeting to discuss, and now there are no vehicles that can shelter from the wind and rain. It would be very difficult to move the wounded, and it would be necessary to carry the wounded to continue the journey, which might make the wounded aggravate their condition, so the decision was made. Let the wounded go back the way they came.

The Seventh Master was woken up by a blessing in disguise in this explosion. That's something to be happy about. However, the doctor said that her condition remains to be seen, and it is better to rest and recuperate to prevent sequelae.

The evacuation of the wounded was inevitable, but no suitable person could be found to escort the wounded back.

In the end, the seventh master, who had just woken up, took on the heavy responsibility of protecting the wounded on their safe return journey alone.

My idea is to let the injured day rain. Accompany and follow the seventh master back. However, Tianyu did not agree. I relied on a lot of words, but she just didn't get in the oil and salt, and in the end she simply played a role and kept silent, and insisted on resisting with silence. I really can't help her, so I have to give up on the idea of letting her go back to Beijing. If you think about it carefully, Tianyu rarely listens to her own words, and most people can't resist her strange temper, and she always makes people wonder what she does. She has her own unique set of ideas, and it is difficult for anyone to control her. Bargaining with her is undoubtedly a waste of tongue and wasted effort.

After the decision was made, we split up the next day and set out on our own journey.

The way back from here is not very safe, and the seventh master and they are all old and weak soldiers, for the sake of safety, the fifth master will let the remaining hot weapons, all the seventh master and them take away, just in case there is an incident on the road. After all, the team on our side is full of young and strong men, and many of them are practitioners, even if they encounter danger, they can pick up a stone from the ground casually, and they can become a weapon to take advantage of.

The playboy handed over his sniper rifle to the seventh master, and then the two looked at each other silently, looking at each other silently, and everyone dispersed with interest, leaving the two of them to grind their ears and temples.

The team of the seventh master returning to the country returned in the reluctant eyes of everyone. I watched the caravan disappearing in front of me, and I had mixed feelings and thoughts.

Recalling the past, I remember it vividly, but I found that my heart was as plain as ever at this time, and I suddenly realized that my sentimental character had gradually become a little indifferent.

It turned out that after several rounds of training, the timid and sentimental self has been quietly swallowed up by indifference.

I thought: I don't know if my transformation is good or bad?

If people are less sensitive, only strong are left, will they feel flawed in such a life?

After sending off the return team of the Seventh Master, our western expedition team began to continue the journey. Not only did the Seventh Master take away all the hot weapons, but all the sturdy camels were also taken away because he had to transport the wounded and the weak medical team. This is what the fifth master said, he said: "We don't have heavy weapons and equipment now, just rely on the remaining few horses, carrying some necessary equipment and grain and grass, and the rest of everyone sets off in simple clothes, anyway, there is not much distance left from the destination now." ”

Tianyu was riding on a horse because of a back injury, and I saw her lying on the back of the horse weakly, being shaken upside down, and I couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and I said: This dead girl is really asking for her own guilt. Although she scolded secretly, her footsteps had involuntarily approached the horse, staring intently at her on the horse's back, in case she accidentally fell off the horse.

Without vehicles and other means of transportation, the Western Expedition team could only rely on the "11 Road" to move forward, the wasteland desert compared to the flat land, the march is very difficult, not long walked, I already felt sore, and the backpack on my body is getting heavier and heavier, as if someone is constantly filling my backpack, gradually increasing the weight. Sweat soon wet the placket of my clothes, ran down my cheeks, and continued to flow down.

The fat man walked up to me with a rare gasp and said to me, "Lao Zheng, why do I feel a little difficult to breathe!" ”

Listening to the fat man say this, I also feel a little difficult to breathe, although entering the territory of Kunlun Mountain, the sea wave began to gradually increase, but we are now in the easternmost part of Kunlun Mountain, the wasteland desert area, it stands to reason that the altitude is not high, and the human body will not have this sudden difficulty breathing.

At this time, I suddenly realized that something was wrong, I had been feeling very sore in my thighs, and it was difficult to walk because of the relationship between walking on the yellow sand. But now, combined with the sudden weight of the backpack and the difficulty of breathing, I think there is a problem with the air, it is the air that has become heavier, and this invisible thing has invisibly increased the resistance of my travel.

I can now clearly feel that my body is affected by the pressure of the atmosphere, which is why it is difficult to walk.

The sudden weight of the desert air did not bode well, and I couldn't help but look up at the sky, where the sun was high and the sky was clear, and there was not even a thin cloud. However, I felt an indescribable uneasiness in my heart, so I bent down and grabbed a handful of sand on the ground, then straightened up, let the sand slowly run between my fingers, and saw the fine dust in the sand tumble and fly forward.

Seeing such a scene, I couldn't help frowning, and said in my heart: It's not good, it seems that the wind is coming, and the wind is not small.

I know that the wind in the desert is definitely not trivial, the desert generally does not have wind, and once the wind rises, it may be a hurricane. When a hurricane rolls up the dust of the desert, it is most likely to form a sandstorm, and most of the desert will not produce the ordinary "blowing sand" phenomenon, but even a slight "sandstorm" will definitely cause fatal injuries to the western expeditionary team that hides in an open space without any cover. In particular, horses are prone to being frightened and alienated in such climates, and people can also be disoriented in very low visibility.

I'm just speculating right now, but I have to be careful, and being careful is my standard of conduct. My worries came to my mind, and I immediately said to the fat man beside me, "Take care of the rain, and don't let her fall off the horse." I'll go to the front to discuss something with the fifth master. ”

When the fat man saw that I was solemn and knew that I must have discovered something, he immediately nodded and said, "Don't worry,"

I glanced at Tianyu on the horse's back, and her body was jolting on the horse's back very rhythmically, as if she was groggy and asleep. Only then did I walk forward quickly with peace of mind, trying to catch up with the fifth master at the front of the line.

The air pressure was getting lower and lower, my body was getting heavier and heavier, and I became more and more convinced of my guesses and thoughts, so I kept speeding forward.

But walking on the desert with one foot deep and one foot shallow, it is really difficult to speed up. By the time I caught up with the team that was at the front, I was exhausted, panting and unable to speak for a while, so I could only hold on to the clothes of the fifth master with my hands, and then bent over and gasped for breath.

Zha Wuye and the others stopped, and looked at me inexplicably with a flushed face, and I was almost out of breath.

At this time, someone handed me a kettle, and I took it and immediately poured a large mouthful of water, and then I felt that my breathing was much easier. So, I will state to everyone my speculations and thoughts about the need for a strong wind.

After finishing speaking, I said to Fifth Master: "Fifth brother, this is my personal opinion, I want to ask for the guide's opinion." ”

After listening to what I said, the fifth master couldn't help frowning, and the people around him also looked nervous, everyone knows that the sandstorm in the desert should not be underestimated, in the desert, the sandstorm is undoubtedly the biggest natural disaster, its arrival is equivalent to the opening of the door to hell, death is beckoning, death is definitely a matter of minutes.

Fifth Master Zha looked at me panting, and replied to me: "The guides have gone back with the team of the Seventh Master today, and they have been following the Western Expedition team to encounter a lot of hardships, saying that they are afraid that they will not spend their lives if they make money, so they insist on going back, even if they don't give money, it doesn't matter." I had no choice but to let them go. ”

When I heard this, I said, "It's broken, what can I do now?"

Fifth Master Zha looked up at the clear sky, and then asked me with a very stern expression: "Xiaowen, are you sure there will be a sandstorm?"
