Chapter 9: The Sea of Death

If there is no water in the desert, it is more dangerous than no food, which is tantamount to suicide.

After coming out of the hotel, the first thing they did was to find a restaurant and have a big meal, so as not to go into the desert to suffer that sin, and after they had eaten and drunk, they went to buy dry food, and came to a store, and bought some cooked food, which could be eaten directly after heating, and also bought some compressed food, and finally bought some water, and when everything was ready, the group set off, rented a car, and went directly to the Taklamakan Desert.

The Taklamakan Desert is located in the center of the Tarim Basin, with a length of about 1,000 kilometers from east to west and a width of about 400 kilometers from north to south, covering an area of 330,000 square kilometers, second only to the Sahara Desert in Africa and the second largest desert in the world. The Uyghur meaning of "Taklamakan" is inextricably linked, and people often call it the "Sea of Death."

The sand and dust were raised by the wind and sprinkled all over the world, and several people walked in the sand and dust, ate a mouthful of something, and had to find a cloth to cover their heads.

"It's the first time I've seen this kind of ghost place!" the fat man shouted in the wind and sand.

The wind seemed to be howling, trying to bite a few people to pieces.

Thousands of miles of wind and sand were raised, a cloud of dust was clouded, and the scene in front of him was difficult to discern.

"Could it be that I encountered a sandstorm today!" Li Jiancheng said suddenly.

"Who knows! none of us have ever been to such a ghost place!" said Lin Fatzi.

There are more and more flying sand, and the steps of several people are becoming more and more difficult to walk: "It seems that it is really a sandstorm!" Zhang Baiguan said loudly.

"Then we have to find a place to hide, Brother Zhang!"

"Where can we hide in this kind of hellish place! Look ahead, there's nothing, it's empty, damn it!"

Zhang Baiguan's eyes swept away, and the wind blowing now was getting more and more intense, just when several people were anxious and helpless, suddenly, in the wind and sand, there was a person wearing a white robe and wearing a hat on the ground was shuttling in the wind and sand.

Several people were very excited when they saw the living people, and they screamed loudly.

When the man heard the voice, he froze at first, and then quickly ran over.

"Is it a sandstorm now?' Is there a place to take refuge?" asked Lin Fatzi loudly.

The man spoke.

However, several people didn't understand, and the wind and sand became more and more violent.

"Do you speak Mandarin?" asked Fat Lin.

The man spoke again.

Several people's steps were involuntarily backwards due to the wind: "Damn, the first time I came to the desert, I encountered this situation! Grandma's, it's really unlucky." Lin Fatzi asked anxiously, feeling that he was playing the piano to the cow, and immediately scolded resentfully.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

The man seemed to understand what Lin Fatzi meant, and gestured to everyone, which meant to follow me!

"Hurry up and follow!" Zhang Baiguan shouted.

The man walked quickly, as if accustomed to the sandstorm, and he ran in the direction of the wind, but it was difficult for several men! But for the man it was commonplace, and after a quarter of an hour, a few houses came out in front of him.

After seeing "hope", several people ran harder.

The man in the white robe walked to a house, pushed the door in, and Zhang Baiguan and the others quickly followed, at this time, the sound of wind and sand in their ears gradually weakened.

A few people slapped the dust off their bodies, and Lin Fatzi scolded and moved a stool to sit down.

The man was still standing aside, looking at Zhang Baiguan and the others.

Zhang Baiguan only took a serious look at the person in front of him at this time, he was wearing a traditional Xinjiang coat and hat, and he had a beard, but the most impressive thing was that his eyes were like a pool of crystal clear lake water.

Zhang Baiguan was stunned for a moment, then looked away and said to the man: "Thank you!"

The man seemed to understand, but he didn't, and a warm smile appeared on his face.

Long Xu stood aside and was stunned, and suddenly, she had an illusion that she had seen this kind of smile somewhere. It really seems that he has seen it somewhere, and unconsciously Long Xu automatically moved his gaze to Zhang Baiguan's body.

But it quickly moved away.

The man spoke again, but they still didn't understand, but they understood by his movements, and he sat them down, and then poured water for them.

Zhang Baiguan took it.

The wind and sand were blowing uncontrollably outside the paper-paste window.

"This ghost weather, when is it a head!" Lin Fat sighed.

No one answered Lin Fatzi out loud, because everyone didn't know, and the people who knew the answer couldn't understand what they said.

Sit here all the time.

Li Jiancheng suddenly approached Zhang Baiguan and sat down, as if after some entanglement, he spoke: "Brother Zhang, can you show me that map now?"

Zhang Baiguan glanced at Li Jiancheng and shook his head.

Li Jiancheng let out a sigh of disappointment.

Zhang Baiguan This is also a matter of no choice, and it is impossible to say that Li Jiancheng has complete trust now.

As the old saying goes, you must not have the intention of harming others, and you must not have the heart of guarding against others! Not to mention that Li Jiancheng is a person with a "criminal record," which makes Zhang Baiguan even more distrustful of him.

Although he saw Li Jiancheng's disappointed expression, Zhang Baiguan still did not relent.

I stayed here for a while, and in the process, several people didn't speak, as if they were already very tired.

The man in the white robe also sat upright and did not speak, his face looked a little serious, but he was very calm, Zhang Baiguan looked at the time, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. Several people have not eaten yet.

So he asked out loud, "Is there anything to eat here?" Zhang Baiguan spoke with movements.

The man could see the movement, shook his head, and pointed to the crowd, which should mean that there was food, but not enough for so many people to eat!

There was no way, Zhang Baiguan had no choice but to take out the spare dry food, let Lin Fatzi Zhou Baigou and a few people heat it up, and by the way, prepared one for the white-robed person. It's a thank you for providing a place of refuge.

After the food was heated, Zhang Baiguan took one and gave it to the white-robed man.

However, he refused, Zhang Baiguan thought he was polite, and pushed it over, but he was still rejected.

Zhang Baiguan finally understood what he meant, and he didn't force it, but the strange thing was that the man also covered his nose with his hand intentionally or unintentionally, and the smell of this cooked food was not unpleasant! But out of respect, Zhang Baiguan didn't ask him.

After a simple meal, I drank enough water.

The wind and sand blowing outside have not stopped, and there is no sign of stopping, and if it continues, a few people can only stay here for one night.

Lin Fatzi was a little anxious, what was going on with the wind and sand outside, it obviously couldn't make him rich happily.

Zhang Baiguan went to inquire about the man again.

After many exchanges, the two can already understand each other's gestures.

He walked to the papier-mâché window, drilled a hole, looked out, and finally shook his head. Then he walked up to Zhang Baiguan and gestured, and Zhang Baiguan understood.

He meant that as he expected, the wind and sand didn't seem to stop.

A few people sat bored, and they didn't know what to do, so they just talked nonsense.

Because the two sides could not communicate so happily, the man simply went into the inner room.

Now in the house outside, only Zhang Baiguan and his group are left. Long Xu suddenly said: "How do I feel that person is weird!"

"Sister Long Xu, it turns out that you also have a feeling!" Lin Fatzi immediately answered.

"I have it too!" Shoko said quietly.

Zhang Baiguan looked at the three of them suspiciously, and Li Jiancheng and Zhou Baigou were also confused. All three obviously didn't feel like they did.

"I think he's strange because I feel like she's giving me a familiar taste, what about you?"

"Me too"

"Hmm. ”

Lin Fatzi and Xiangzi also responded, the answers of the three were surprisingly consistent, and the three of them looked at each other, but there was really no such a person in their minds!

"What do you call it! Dead fat man, have you ever seen a ghost!"

Lin Fatzi was choked by Long Xu's words! He was speechless for a while, and if he wanted to say hell, he really hadn't seen it.

"Hey"

"Fat man, give!" Zhou Baigou skillfully handed Lin Fatzi a cigarette, and then lost another Xiangzi, then Zhang Baiguan, and finally Li Jiancheng.

A few people were about to light it.

Long Xu suddenly said, "You all smoke, what should I do?"

Zhang Baiguan hesitated, then put away the cigarette, Xiangzi saw that Zhang Baiguan didn't light it, and Li Jiancheng didn't either.

It was Lin Fatzi and Zhou Baigou who gave it.

However, Lin Fatzi was kicked by Long Xu, and Lin Fatzi did not retaliate, first, he didn't dare, and second, he really couldn't beat him!

After a puff of smoke, the sandstorm outside was still raging.

A few people are starting to get bored again!

"Damn, damn, damn!" Lin Fatzi walked around, scolding non-stop. "This kind of hell place!"

"Otherwise, Sister Long Xu, tell us the story of the ghost coffin!"

"There's no time, this girl is not available!" Long Xu rejected Lin Fatzi without giving face.

Lin Fatzi was almost about to open his mouth to scold Long Xu, but seeing Long Xu's aggressive eyes, Lin Fatzi swallowed the words that came to his mouth, as the saying goes, a good man doesn't eat the loss in front of him!

Just as Lin Fatzi was about to speak.

Zhang Baiguan said loudly: "Dead fat man, don't talk about it! Just your little, you have told it more than a hundred times!"

"Official, don't talk nonsense!

"Yes, this one really exists!" Xiangzi also demolished Lin Fatzi's platform.

Lin Fatzi couldn't get angry, so he asked Zhou Baigou instead: "Brother White Dog, let's be fair!"

Zhou Baigou heard Lin Fatzi shouting to himself, his face was a little embarrassed, and he also agreed with Zhang Baiguan's words.

"Damn, if you don't listen, Lao Tzu still doesn't want to talk about it!"

Lin Fatzi sat down.

Long Xu hugged his stomach and laughed.

"This girl is in a better mood now, I'll tell you about the legend of the ghost coffin!"

"Damn, what's the matter!" Lin Fatzi whispered.
