Although Sadiq told us about Dawut, there was another thing that I was puzzled about in his words that has been bothering me.

I don't know if this question can help us, but I am such a person, I have been like this since I was in school, and the question in my heart, once it is asked, then I must ask it in every detail.

So, I looked at Dawut, who was already drunk and unconscious, and then at Sadiq in front of me, "Boss Sa, you just said that after his wife died, he was also kicked out of the village, what is this for?" ”

Hearing my question, Sadiq's expression changed, "This matter is all a legend, no one can say for sure, and if there is no basis for something, don't say it well!" So saying, he was about to stand up.

I hurriedly grabbed him, "Hey! Ay! Boss Sa, I'll tell you the truth, I'm a novelwriter, and one of the main purposes of this expedition to the desert is to collect wind, so you should help me and tell me about it! ”

At my insistence, Sadiq sat down reluctantly, "Actually, I've heard about it, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes. ”

It all started on the day Dawut's wife Ayim was buried, because Dawut was an orphan, and Ayim had only one brother and was doing business far away. Therefore, all the aftermath of Ayimu was handled by the villagers in the same village.

At that time, Ayim's body was placed in the "Jinaz", a communal wooden frame used by the mosque to carry the body. "Jinaz" was carried by many villagers, ready to enter the mosque for funeral.

But Ayimu's brother, who was doing business in other places, called and said that he was on his way here, and the brother and sister had a good relationship since childhood, and asked everyone to wait for him no matter what, and he hoped to see his sister for the last time.

Everyone was willing to fulfill my brother's wish, and the weather was still relatively cold at the time, so it was okay to wait another day. So I decided to wait for Ayim's brother to come the next day and then go to the mosque for the funeral.

"Jinaz" was placed in the courtyard of Dawut's house that night, and some young people from the village also stayed there at night to accompany Dawut.

When Ayim's brother arrived the next day, he came to the front of "Jinaz" with tears in his eyes, intending to look at his sister again, but when he looked into "Jinaz", he was stunned for a moment.

Ayimu's brother pointed to the "Jinaz" and stammered a little and said, "This, what's going on?" ”

Everyone didn't know why, so they all looked inside, and everyone was stunned, and everyone hurriedly exited a long way. looked at the "Jinaz" in front of him in horror.

Dawut, who was standing next to him, didn't know why, so he hurriedly separated everyone and stepped forward, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but exclaim "ah". It turned out that the body of Ayimu, who was put in yesterday, was gone.

And if it's just that the body is gone, everyone may just be surprised and confused, but at this time, in "Jinaz", the clothes Ayimu wore when she was buried are all there, but her body has disappeared!

Looking at this strange scene, everyone fell silent for a moment. Ayimu's brother rushed over and grabbed Dawut, "What do you say is going on?" Where did my sister go! ”

Dawut was even more at a loss, just staring blankly at the "Jinaz" in front of him. Everyone didn't understand, yesterday it was fine during the day, and I didn't even see anyone near here at night, but now, why did the corpse inside look like this!

Many people searched the surrounding area, hoping to find Ayim's body, but found nothing.

Inside "Jinaz", Ayimu's clothes and accessories were placed in it intact, and even the position did not change, only the body was gone. This situation gave people a strange and strange feeling, as if Ayimu's body had suddenly dissolved by itself.

The old people in the village felt that this was an ominous phenomenon, and they believed that Ayimu must have encountered a devil during his lifetime, which is why such an abnormal thing happened after death.

Such a statement made all the villagers present panic. So everyone decided to take out the "corpse" of Ayim in "Jinaz" and burn it to dispel the devil.

Of course, Dawut and Ayim's elder brother disagreed, but no one cared about their feelings anymore after buying it at this time!

Looking at the raging fire in front of him, his wife's things slowly dissipating in the fire, Dawut was overwhelmed with grief.

After doing this, the villagers asked someone to do a ritual to ward off evil spirits.

After this, Ayim's brother left with grief, leaving Dawut alone to face it. The people of the village have always been haunted by this incident, feeling that this is ominous befallen the village, and so they are angry with Ayim's husband Dawut, and the people gradually began to exclude him and drive him away, and in the end, Dawut had no choice but to leave.

Dawut came here and still worked as a guide to earn a living, but he was alone, without relatives or friends, and his life was very miserable. Coupled with the fact that he contracted the vice of alcoholism, his business was dismal and he barely made a living.

Later, Sadiq met him, sympathized with his plight, and often introduced business to him. So he is also one of the few friends of Dawut.

Hearing Sadiq's story, my heart shook violently, because I had seen the situation that appeared after Ayimu's death once, in the ruins of Qilian Mountain!

But what surprised me was that one was buried in the depths of the Qilian Mountains, and the other was in the hinterland of the desert with unknown experiences, and the two were separated by thousands of miles.

I believe that both of them must have gone through the same thing after death or before death for such a strange change.

I was in deep contemplation, and I felt someone next to me pushing me again, and I turned my head to see that it was Kong Xue who was calling me softly: "Hey! Feed! What do you think? Speak! What are you doing? ”

I came back to my senses and shook my head, "Ah, it's okay! What's wrong? ”

Shi Tao took over and said, "I just said that it is better to take Dawut back to Sadiq first, and wait for him to sober up." Kong Xue would like to ask your opinion. ”

"Oh, that's it." I said, "Okay, I think so, let's take him back first." ”

Shi Tao nodded, picked up Dawuti and walked towards the off-road vehicle.

We also stood up and walked with Shi Tao, at this time, Sadiq gently pulled me, "So you write a book?" He gave a thumbs up, "You're amazing, my first time as a writer!" ”

I hurriedly waved my hand, in fact, how could I possibly write a book! But the words have been spoken, so I have to continue to round my lie, "A writer doesn't dare to be, at most he can be a storyteller." ”

Sadiq smiled, "You're too modest! What kind of book did you write? ”

I was still thinking about what had just happened, so I replied casually, "Ah, yes, yes, I wrote a tomb robbery novel." ”

"Tomb robbers!" Sadiq became excited, "I like to read tomb robbery novels the most, go back and introduce your book to me!" ”

"Huh?" I hurriedly perfunctory, "This, this, haven't finished writing yet, don't be in a hurry, I'll show you first when I'm done!" ”

"Hey, hey! Then I'm waiting for your masterpiece! ”

Back at Sadiq's house, we put the unconscious Dawut on the bed.

At dinnertime, Sadiq prepared a sumptuous dinner for us. Looking at the dishes on this table, I swallowed my saliva and whispered to Kong Xue: "This Sadiq is quite interesting!" So many dishes! ”

Shi Tao on the side whispered: "I have paid for these, what do you think!" ”

It dawned on me, so that's it!

We gathered around the table to feast, and Nadawut was still asleep in bed, and it seemed that he would not wake up today. I can't help but worry a little about whether Dawuti's state is up to the task of a guide. From the faces of Shi Tao and Kong Xue, I could see that I was not the only one who was worried about this.

During the meal, Sadiq looked at us and said with some embarrassment: "Distinguished guests, I have a question, I don't know whether to ask it or not?" ”

As soon as I saw him like this, I guessed what he wanted to ask, since he was Shi Tao's friend, so I looked at Shi Tao quietly, thinking that it would be better for him to answer this question.

Shi Tao said casually without raising his head: "Ask!" ”

Sadiq coughed dryly, "Well, why did you go into the desert?" ”

Shi Tao looked at Sadiq, "Guess what?" ”

Sadiq laughed dryly, "How do I know this, but I know that you have done the antique business, could it be that you went into the desert this time to ......" said Sadiq made a digging motion.

Shi Tao smiled, "Lao Sa, I think you really have read too many tomb robbery novels!" What is there to dig in this desert? ”

Sadiq waved his hand, "There are a lot of ancient cities buried in this desert, and there are many good things in them!" Every year, some people go into the desert to hunt for treasure, but they often suffer heavy casualties! ”

Shi Tao sighed, "We don't have that ability, to tell you the truth, we went into the desert to find someone!" ”

"Looking for someone?" Sadiq was a little puzzled, "The desert is deserted, who are there?" ”

Shi Tao continued: "The person we are looking for has robbed us of our things and fled into this desert, and we are going in to get our things back!" ”

Sadiq said with some concern: "So is it just the three of you?" Do you want me to hire some lads for you? ”

Shi Tao shook his head nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's okay, we have other people." The follow-up will soon arrive, and we will meet in the desert. ”

Sadiq immediately smiled, "That's good, that's good!" Come on, you're welcome, everyone eat! ”

After eating for a while, Shi Tao got up to go to the toilet, I also followed, walked aside, and I whispered to Shi Tao: "Brother Tao, this Sadiq seems to be testing us?" ”

Shi Tao nodded, "I feel this way too." ”

"Could something go wrong?" I'm a little worried.

Shi Tao frowned, "I haven't seen this Sadiq for many years, I don't know people and faces, in short, let's improvise!" ”
