Chapter 499: I Know Pray for Tianjin
As I ran towards the figure, the head immediately moved. The distance between him and me was so far away that by the time I ran to the sand dunes where he was hiding, he was nowhere to be seen. The desert is full of uneven sand dunes, and at this moment, he doesn't know where to hide.
I wanted to chase after me, but I couldn't do it, I turned around, and Uncle Man was running slowly towards me. He was older than me, and his feet were burned, so he was naturally much slower than mine. The flashlight in Uncle Man's hand flickered with his swinging hand, and the light would hit my eyes from time to time.
After a while, Uncle Man followed me out of breath, and to my surprise, Uncle Man didn't ask me who that person was, but directly scolded me.
"Do you know that this is dangerous, but fortunately nothing happened" Uncle Man's face turned red angrily: "Do you remember what you promised me, you must listen to me for everything when you enter the desert"
"Uncle Man, do you know who that person is" My tone also became solemn.
Uncle Man chose such a time to take me into the desert, which was already very strange and incomprehensible, and since we left Uncle Man's house, Uncle Man has been vigilantly staring around, and this vigilance has continued until we go deeper into the desert and have not stopped.
Originally, I didn't know what Uncle Man was doing, but now as soon as the figure appeared, I suddenly understood: Uncle Man is probably the one who has been watching out for us.
There is a reason why we think that person has been following us. At this time, no one would normally appear in the desert, and if that person hadn't followed us and had a ghost in his heart, he wouldn't have been able to see me and run away. Slowly, Uncle Man lost his breath, he turned around, and he was not ready to answer my question, but told me not to chase anymore and hurry on the road.
But I didn't give up asking so easily, I bypassed Uncle Man and blocked in front of him: "Tell me, who that person is and why he is following us"
Uncle Man's voice was also much lower than before: "I don't know." ”
"Then tell me what you've been careful about," I asked.
But Uncle Man still gave the same answer: I don't know.
The atmosphere between me and Uncle Man was a little tense, and it was hard to imagine that in the first few minutes, Uncle Man and I were talking at length, and now, we are facing each other like enemies. Uncle Man's answer obviously didn't satisfy me, Uncle Man wanted to move forward, but I blocked Uncle Man again.
"Uncle Man, I hope you can tell me." I said solemnly.
"Li Ke, I dare to swear to God, I don't know who that person is, you remember, now you have a request for me, if you still want to go to that place to continue the investigation, you'd better not ask anything, follow me obediently" Uncle Man's temper completely exploded, when Uncle Man didn't lose his temper, I would have the illusion that he was a Sven person.
But at this moment, he and my impression of him are diametrically opposed, and I suddenly can't tell which character is Uncle Man's real character.
Uncle Man doesn't look like he's lying, but I'm sure Uncle Man definitely has something to hide from me. I turned my head and glanced in the direction of the man's escape, he must not be able to catch up, the desert is so big, and there are sand dunes everywhere, after such a long delay, he has long since lost his sights.
The man didn't have any lighting tools in his hand, he must have been very familiar with the desert, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to run around like that alone at such a late hour. I forcibly suppressed the emotions in my heart, Uncle Man walked in front of me, and soon, we returned to the place where the camel was kneeling.
Uncle Man didn't say a word, picked up the camel and continued to walk in the previous direction.
Uncle Man didn't say a word to me for half an hour, and I didn't know how to break the heavy atmosphere. But at this time, Uncle Man stopped, he turned his head, compared to just now, Uncle Man's anger had dissipated a lot, and he took the initiative to speak.
"Li Ke, I don't want to be angry with you, listen to me, leave after the investigation tonight, and never come to this place again, otherwise you will definitely have bad luck" Uncle Man said.
If Doha or Selpel had said such things to me, I would have thought they were talking about the void desert spirit, but it came from Uncle Man's mouth, and I think there was something else in Uncle Man's words.
"What do you mean by bad luck?" I gritted my teeth.
Uncle Man: "Don't ask too much, the place you want to investigate is here, speed." ”
I stopped arguing with Uncle Man, but looked around. I thought there would be something special about the place where the village chief found the coffin, but it was exactly the same as the rest of the desert, there was yellow sand everywhere, nothing special. I tried to move, and even crouched down and grabbed a handful of sand, but after standing here for a long time, I still didn't get anything.
"Are you dead?" Uncle Man said to me suddenly.
I looked at Uncle Man: "You already knew that I couldn't find any clues here."
Uncle Man: "I don't know what you're going to investigate, how can you have such a foresight." It's just that this desert is full of yellow sand, and no matter how special a place is, how much difference can it be from other places?"
I was even more puzzled: "Then you are still willing to bring me"
Uncle Man: "You have to come, and besides, I know that if you don't come here to see it yourself, you will definitely not give up." ”
I had a rough guess in my heart, Uncle Man didn't bring me to the desert to help me at all, he was to make me die, and the purpose of making me die was obvious: not to set foot in Kuta Village again. To be honest, I met Uncle Man, and Uncle Man didn't need to spend this mind for me at all, so I felt that there was something wrong with Uncle Man.
I didn't say what I was thinking, and I was going to wait until I got back to the village to investigate him.
"Is the coffin found by the village chief really located in this location?" I asked.
Uncle Man: "Yes, this is a forbidden area for the villagers and passers-by of Kuta Village. ”
"I heard that the coffin was only half exposed, and it was possible for the coffin to be buried deep in the ground in one night," I asked again.
Uncle Man replied: "It can definitely be buried, but the depth cannot be too deep, and when the village chief and other villagers came the next day, they almost dug three feet into the ground." ”
Uncle Man's answer made me almost sure that the coffin must have been moved by someone else, otherwise it would not have been buried to the bottom of the bottomless desert overnight. Moreover, in the days after the village chief returned to the village, there were no more bad weather changes in the desert.
As for why the coffins appeared in the desert, there are two possibilities: one is that they were left in the desert, and the other is that those coffins have long been buried deep under the yellow sand, and over time, they slowly reveal the sand.
"It's almost time, let's go back." Uncle Man urged.
We've been in the desert for a long time, we can't find anything, and I'm not going to waste any more time.
I followed Uncle Man back, and the wind suddenly rose all around, Uncle Man's face changed slightly, and he observed for a while before relieving himself. It's just downwind, and there will be no danger until we leave the desert, but it's a sign before a strong wind starts. Uncle Man and I quickened our pace while guarding against insect tides and sand depressions.
Uncle Man still didn't say a word to me, and when we walked for about an hour, we found another figure, it was Tang Yingxuan I didn't expect it to be so late, he was still walking in the desert. Of course, I could easily tell that the figure I saw just now was not Tang Yingxuan.
I called out to Tang Yingxuan twice, he stopped, we all had light on our hands, and he had noticed me very early.
After approaching, I asked Tang Yingxuan if he had found anything, and Tang Yingxuan glanced at me and Uncle Man coldly, and wanted to leave without answering anything. Tang Yingxuan was sweating profusely, his body was also very dirty, on such a cold day, even if he walked in the desert for a long time, the sweat should not flow so much, Tang Yingxuan's appearance seemed to have fought with people.
"Did you notice a strange figure," I pressed Tang Yingxuan's shoulder from behind.
Who knew that Tang Yingxuan actually had a backhand and swung it at me with one punch. I barely blocked it, and I was angry: "What are you doing"
"Li Ke, I remember saying before that I don't want to contact you." Tang Yingxuan said.
"Tell me, who that person is" I'm pretty sure of my guess.
Tang Yingxuan sneered, leading the camel to leave, looking at Tang Yingxuan's back, I said in a deep voice: "Tang Yingxuan, do you really think that I don't know who bought the murder of me?"
