Chapter 14: Cooking Smoke

The afterglow of the setting sun stretched the desert horizon infinitely, and the shadows of several people also became "light" in it, and a trace of coolness surged back from the vast and boundless desert, which made Zhang Baiguan, who was running in this sea of death under the scorching sun during the day, feel a little bit of comfort.

"It's a good weather!"

"Not necessarily! When it gets dark, it's going to get cold. Aisha appropriately poured a basin of cold water on Fat Lin, but Fat Lin scoffed and didn't bother to pay attention.

"Isn't there a way to go on like this?" "Daguan" Lin Fatzi rode his "red camel" to Zhang Baiguan's side.

"Yes!" Zhang Baiguan also sighed a little. Seeing that the day was about to fall into the night, they had no clue at all, they were like a grain of dust in this vast desert, and their existence was so weak that they did not exist.

"Aisha. Zhang Baiguan shouted.

"You called me?" Aisha turned to ask Zhang Baiguan.

"Yes, I want to ask, where are you taking us as a tour guide this time?"

Zhang Baiguan's words made everyone understand that this is simply a purposeless in-depth journey, and it is likely to return in vain, and behind this futile, he may be buried in this sea of death at any time.

This is the price to pay for entering this sea of death, a world that belongs to Allah.

When Aisha heard Zhang Baiguan ask him this, he thought for a moment, then frowned and said, "The biggest role I play in this team is to try to get you out of this desert alive. ”

His words landed, and everyone was silent for a moment. Yes, what he said was the truth, and no one could know the specific location of the ghost coffin.

At least in this team, Zhang Baiguan thinks that there is no such person.

I used to hear the old people say: you should be thoughtful in everything you do, because if you don't pay attention, you may be stabbed by the thorns around you.

But Zhang Baiguan is now looking at the office, not everything can accommodate you to be thoughtful.

At this moment, Zhang Baiguan had an outline in his mind, that is, when he returned from the railway, he vaguely saw the coffin that was not sure whether it was a "ghost coffin" or not.

It seems to be at the far end, and it seems to be around.

Aisha said suddenly, "But I heard from the old man that I once saw the smoke rising in the middle of the desert. ”

"In the middle of the desert?"

"Well, but it's unrealistic to say that it's in the middle of the desert, this desert is too big, and if it's the smoke burning in the middle of the desert, we can't see it here at all, so I guess it's like it's a few kilometers deep into the desert, or more than ten kilometers. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Because the smoke is wafting upwards, if you want to see it in our village, the minimum height of the smoke should be tens of meters, and since we came in, the distance traveled now should be about five thousand meters. Aisha was precise.

"Makes sense!" Lin Fatzi nodded approvingly, although he wasn't listening much, but if he didn't understand it anyway, it must make sense.

Zhang Baiguan also went over what Aisha said in his mind, and felt that his analysis made sense.

"So that means it's not a long walk or it's around here, it's where they've probably been. Zhang Baiguan answered.

"That's right. ”

"The route we're taking now is basically a straight line with our village, and if they were ever here, it would be right. ”

Just behind Aisha's words.

Suddenly, Xiangzi shouted: "Brother Zhang, look." Shoko's tone was a little excited. Immediately attracted everyone's attention.

At this time, the sky was already stained with some black, so it was a little blurry when looking into the distance, but Zhang Baiguan could still be sure that it was a wisp of smoke rising upward.

"I'm grass! said that Cao Cao will arrive when Cao Cao arrives. Lin Fatzi was excited in his heart.

Long Xu also squinted his eyes and looked forward, and there was a trace of solemnity on his originally handsome face, maybe he really wanted to see the ghost coffin this time.

This is hope, but it may also mean that there is danger ahead.

At this moment, a thought suddenly popped up in Zhang Baiguan's mind: Could it be that the "ghost coffin" had never moved its position and had been hiding somewhere.

"Come and have a look!"

Although I saw the smoke of the cooking, as the old saying goes, Wangshan runs a dead horse, and some places look very close, but the actual distance is very far.

Lin Fatzi rode his "red camel" to take the lead.

Although the camel is not very fast, its endurance is quite good.

"Hurry up!" shouted the fat man in front.

As a tour guide, Aisha naturally followed quickly, otherwise the crowd would have been separated or lost, but it would have been a big deal.

The weather is getting colder and colder.

Several of them tightened their clothes.

"Brother Li, you follow me. Xiangzi reminded Li Jiancheng. Everyone turned on their flashlights, and the lights shuttled through the darkness.

Long Xu shouted: "Zhang Baiguan, what are you going to do when you see that coffin?"

"Huh?" To be honest, Zhang Baiguan never thought about this question.

Now that Long Xu asked, Zhang Baiguan thought about it briefly and said, "Maybe this 'ghost coffin' has something to do with what I'm looking for." ”

Hearing this, Long Xu's heart beat inexplicably, for fear of missing this conversation, and hurriedly blurted out: "Zhang Baiguan, what are you looking for?"

Long Xu asked seriously.

"What am I looking for? I'm looking for a secret, a secret about them. Zhang Baiguan asked and answered himself like this.

Long Xu heard it vaguely, but he quickly reacted.

"Their secrets, who are they?"

"They are" Just as Zhang Baiguan was about to speak, Lin Fatzi's laughter came, and Zhang Baiguan looked up and didn't know what was going on.

I was just disturbed by this laughter, and drove the camel forward.

"What's wrong? Fatty?"

Lin Fatzi turned to Zhang Baiguan with a smile and said, "Daguan, haven't you noticed? The smoke is not far in front of us, and I have a hunch that it will arrive soon." ”

It's almost completely dark now.

In fact, Aisha does not approve of traveling in the desert at night, because there are too many crises hidden in the desert at night, and people may be killed at any time.

But the smoke is indeed right in front of you, and it's a shame not to go now.

So when Lin Fat Man was about to go excitedly, Aisha didn't say anything to stop him, but just mentioned a little caution, he was already full of black beard, so that people couldn't see his face clearly, and at this time, under the cover of the night, it seemed that the face had disappeared.

After walking about 500 meters forward, a cold wind suddenly blew, and everyone shivered, and their hearts were chilling.

"No, no, why not!" Lin Fatzi rode a camel in a circle.

Zhang Baiguan was also a little suspicious, at this time it seemed that he could already smell the smell of cooking smoke, but this area was empty, and there was no trace of fireworks.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have it, let's rest here!"

The area is relatively flat, and the dust doesn't kick up as much.

After finding some animal droppings and dry firewood, a few people made a fire here, and everyone gathered around, not feeling very tired before, but after sitting down, exhaustion swept in.

The faces of several people were covered with marks of being blown by the wind and sand.

"It's hard enough to work in such an environment!" Li Jiancheng said, sitting by the fire.

"We can't be here for long, we have to do it quickly. Xiangzi continued Li Jiancheng's words.

Long Xu was still chewing on what Zhang Baiguan said, and it was not easy to ask him now, there are so many people here, since it is a secret, he has to ask in private.

"Where did this dead Zhang Baiguan know so many secrets, so dead, these secrets are also related to what I am looking for. ”

"Hey, this is called bad luck! probably!" Long Xu let out a sigh of relief, and didn't listen seriously to what everyone was saying.

Aisha sat down and lit a cigarette for herself.

Lin Fatzi asked for one in the past, and also lit it, the two of them were a little wrong, so they didn't talk much, and after Zhou Baigou sat down, the three of them talked nonsense together.

Lin Fatzi's eyebrows danced as he spoke, and he was a little carried away.
