Chapter XIV: The Expedition



All the arrangements here are full of the breath of life, unlike those that have been relocated, the bedding and ingredients are placed regularly, but the only strange thing is that the people inside are gone.

It's been uninhabited for a long time, so if it's a relocation, why not take your belongings with you?

We all noticed that something was wrong, and for a moment we looked at each other, and the fat man looked around, and then drilled into the door frames, and when he did, he exclaimed, "This is the kitchen,, there's nothing." ”

Jin Operator and I hurriedly went in, and found that this should be a place for cooking, and there is a stove on the ground, but the things in it have been black and dry, I don't know how many years have been here, on the top of the stove, there are some bottles and cans, I looked inside, there is salt, pepper, and chili noodles, and there is a broken jar on the ground, and the things that flow out of it have dyed the yellow earth black, probably oil.

The fat man turned over the stove, couldn't stop complaining, and then spread his hands and said: "Forget it, let's dig some cactus to sacrifice to the five internal organs temple, I lost more than ten pounds last time I went to Kunlun, and I finally made up for it, this fucking only a few days of full food, and I have to starve." ”

My stomach is also very troublesome, in order to keep up with the surname Zhang, I and the fat man chased after each other, except for the meal at Jin Operator's house, I even drank saliva along the way, and this tossing down, now my mouth is dry.

We decided to rest in this house, and then talk about it when the wind and sand passed, and now the important thing is to find something to cushion our stomachs, although our equipment is lost, but the personal equipment is belted, daggers, masks, lighters, waist ropes, and the only flashlight, and immediately take the fat man out to find food, and the gold operator stays in the house, probably clean up, and make room for a place where you can sleep and light a fire.

Out of the room, outside is a large banana forest, these traveler bananas grow very luxuriant, can even be said to be amazing, perhaps not by man-made damage, traveler banana stems and leaves are thick and big, look up, huge banana leaves will be the sky is blocked, obviously it has been bright, we stand under the banana tree, but feel that the surroundings are gloomy.

The vines on the ground grew very amazingly, some of them stretched upwards around the banana, and the roots were deeply rooted in the trunk of the banana, I suddenly felt as if I had walked into a tropical jungle, but I felt a little different, and after thinking about it carefully, I suddenly realized that there was not only no one here, not even animals, not even insects.

There was a rumour, and everything was too quiet.

When I think of this, a kind of uneasiness arises in my heart, this oasis is indeed a little weird, it seems that I have to be in good spirits, otherwise I don't know what will happen.

The fat man explored the way in front of me, the kind of vine plant grew very arrogant, sometimes formed a website, hooked up and hung on the tree, the fat man waved a dagger to cut, but the vine was very tough, cut a few knives and kept cutting, the fat man snorted, and said: "Naive, I thought of a way to make money." ”

While observing my surroundings, I talked nonsense to him and said, "What way?" ”

The fat man simply stopped chopping, drilled under the vines, and said: "This Wang's sand creeper, the toughness is stronger than the mountaineering rope, we can breed it on a large scale, and it is specially provided for Tufuzi and people who touch gold." I rolled my eyes, and went under the vines, and at a glance I saw a group of cacti among the vines, and I beckoned the fat man not to talk nonsense, but to find food.

Immediately, the fat man and I chopped some cacti, wrapped them in coats, cut some traveler's bananas, and put a jar of milky white juice in the iron box we found in the room. There was no water in the vicinity, the iron box was very dirty, and when the juice was put in, a layer of ash floated, and I poured out the surface layer and filled it again, and then I carried the iron box back.

When we went back to the earthen house, we lit a fire, pulled out the thorns of the cactus, and boiled a pot with the juice, the taste was indescribably strange, the cactus was slightly bitter, and the juice was a little sweet, and the salt in the kitchen was left for too long, and we didn't dare to use it, so we boiled a pot in vain, and one person drank a bowl, and no one moved anymore.

This night tossed enough, the wind outside is still very strong, Jin Operator made a nest on the kang, the pepper on it was cleared, the three of us squeezed on the kang to sleep, although it was daytime, but here it seemed very gloomy, eyes closed, a huge sense of exhaustion hit, I fell asleep at once, forgot to arrange the wind, this sleep is very heavy, I have been immersed in dreams.

This is the first time in a long time that I didn't dream of fighting, but dreamed that I played basketball in college, played and played, and sweated a lot, so I unscrewed the mineral water bottle to drink, and the water didn't flow in for a long time, so I kept holding the bottle and drinking.

Drinking and drinking, I was awakened with thirst.

When I opened my eyes, it was dark all around, and there was still the sound of the wind in my ears, and it seemed that the storm had not stopped, but this oasis seemed to be blessed by the gods, and even though the wind was howling, I was in it, but I didn't feel anything.

The fat man was still asleep, snoring loudly. I fumbled and turned on the flashlight, and suddenly a layer of dim light was covered around it, and the golden operator fell asleep, fell to the kang, and did not wake up.

I looked outside, it was dark and dreary, and under the blurred light of the flashlight, the banana leaves were dancing in the wind, like hideous ghosts.

I didn't expect the wind to blow for so long, and I didn't expect the three of us to be so vigilant, so we all slept, or slept until dark, I felt very thirsty, but there was no water source here, so I flashlight, ready to go to the traveler banana outside to borrow a little, but just walked to the door and was timid, the outside of the black hand could not see the five fingers, the light hit the past, shot into the banana forest, the light seemed to be swallowed.

I secretly scolded myself for not being angry, and I am not a little girl, I have seen a company of zongzi, and I am afraid of the dark. When I was about to go out, a fierce gunshot suddenly broke out, this gunshot came too suddenly, I heard it suddenly, almost didn't frighten me, but then I reacted, someone!

There are other people in this oasis.

Listen to the sound, it should not be far from us.

The fat man and the two were also frightened by the gunshot, and when Jin Operator saw me standing at the door, he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Someone put a gun."

The fat man was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, and said, "It must be the group surnamed Zhang, it seems that they are also here to take refuge." Immediately, the fat man was overjoyed, and said suspiciously: "But what kind of guns do they put in the middle of the night?" ”

I shook my head, I felt that I had to take a look, this oasis felt too weird, not to mention that now we have lost all our equipment, we can't go back, we can't enter, we can only go to ask for the surname Zhang, besides, Yabuda and his party are about stuffy oil bottles, and I must not give up. So I analyzed the current situation with the two of them, and the three of them decided to go and have a look, and immediately, the three of us were on full alert, flashlights and headed in the direction where the gunshots came.

It was still quiet in the banana forest, and then I realized that these traveler's bananas also had problems, because they grew too close to the houses, and I wondered, who would plant trees in front of their homes? Even if you want to plant trees, there will inevitably be a distance in between, but here the traveler's bananas, some of the banana leaves have already poked into the door.

I relied on the image to take the fat man and the two of them through the darkness, and when I was in the middle of it, I noticed a fire in front of me, and a group of people were sitting around the fire.

It was indeed Dr. Zhang's entourage.

They seemed to be gathered in a pile to discuss something, and the appearance of the three of us seemed very abrupt, and all eyes were on us.

The fat man poked my waist in the back and whispered, "We are grandsons." I couldn't help but curse secretly, and immediately pretended to have an expression for the rest of my life, and said excitedly: "Dr. Zhang, it's great that you are also here." ”

The surnamed Zhang was wearing a light-colored camouflage uniform, with a slender figure, desert boots on her feet, and a ponytail, looking very energetic, she came back to her senses and said, "Why are you here?" I gave Jin Operator a look, motioned him to act at the opportunity, and immediately came up to him, and said excitedly: "Dr. Zhang, this matter is a long story. ”

Dr. Zhang frowned and said, "Then it's a long story short. I was stunned, why is this so familiar? Come to think of it,, isn't that what I often say to fat people!

Forcibly thinking about the ** of the flat people, I made it up blindly, and said: "I can't hide it, since listening to Dr. Zhang's translation of ghost Japanese, Xiaopang and I admire the civilization of Yabuda very much, and I really want to see it with our own eyes, but we have no experience, we encountered sand and storms, and almost died, I didn't expect to meet you again, it's great." ”

The fat man hurriedly added fuel to the side, and said: "The rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, although we are not archaeologists, but for the truth of history, we are also adhering to a serious and pragmatic attitude, although Comrade Xiao Wu and I are not professional, but also want to contribute to the research of Yabuda civilization to make their own strength, how can we die before we get out of the school, ambition is not rewarded, and now I meet Dr. Zhang, it is fate to meet thousands of miles away, and we have to meet without fate, although we have different cultural classes, But a burning heart for the exploration of unknown civilizations is the same, Dr. Zhang, you see that we are now equipped with no equipment, it is better to take us in, although we do not have a professional level, but we have the strength and perseverance, we must burn ourselves for our expedition team and light up the cause of the country. I was stunned for a while, and even the others were stunned by the fat man, and after a while, the surnamed Zhang came back to his senses, looked at the three of us, and said, "What is your purpose?" ”

Obviously, the fat man's incomprehensible passionate statement failed to fool the surname Zhang, so I quickly patted a sycophant and said, "Dr. Zhang, your vision is like a torch, since you can see it, I won't hide it from you, alas!" With a long sigh, I was silent.

With Dr. Zhang's team, there are three men and one woman, one of whom is older, probably about the same as a fat man, but he is older, but he is older, and the other three are quite young, the woman is still a blonde foreigner, I don't know which country, it is estimated to be a German beauty.

My sigh immediately whetted their appetites, and at this time, the German beauty, who was about the same age as Dr. Zhang, asked in a noon that was not very fluent, "What's wrong?" Why did you come along? ”

I looked at Dr. Zhang, put on what I thought was the most sincere expression, and sighed, "Actually, it was not only the old professor who had entered Yabuda. ”

Dr. Zhang looked at him sharply and said in a deep voice, "Who else?" ”
