Chapter 123: Flying Sand and Stones
Leng Ai closed her eyes and observed for a while: "The Spanish army and ** have fought, and the fight is very fierce. ”
Wang Sheng asked suspiciously: "Aren't Spain and ** allies?
Cheng Hao said with a smile: "No matter which army it is, it is our nemesis, stay away from them!"
Wang Sheng looked around and stretched out his hand to the right: "Bypass them from this side." ”
No one asked anything, rode on the car and drove to the right, the wind blew stronger and stronger, fine sand particles filled the air, unable to open their eyes, the four of them swayed and rode the motorcycle, walked not far away, vaguely saw a few tents that were about to be blown away by the wind, and more than a dozen people were busy in front of the tent.
Wang Sheng and the four of them came to the tent, and these people didn't have time to deal with Wang Sheng and them. The tabs of the ropes holding the ropes on either side of a tent's doorway were torn off, and the tent's brackets creaked and seemed to be ready to blow apart at any moment.
A middle-aged man shouted, "Find something and hold it down!"
The curtain of the tent was blown open, and the storm poured in, and the tent was like a balloon that blew its feet, and the crack burst immediately.
The two of them hurriedly pulled the rope down, but it didn't work at all.
Cheng Hao shouted: "Let go, you will be scraped away......"
The two people who dragged the tent didn't seem to hear what Cheng Hao was shouting, and looked at him suspiciously, suddenly, the wind lifted the tent, the two people flew into the air, and the bald head hurriedly grabbed the feet of the two, but the wind was too strong, and the bald head was held out for several meters.
The bald head yelled, "Fuck, let go......"
The three of them lay on the ground at the same time, and the sand instantly buried them, and their bald heads came out of the sand, and they hurriedly went to see the situation of the two people regardless of their own safety.
Cheng Hao shouted: "Quickly dismantle the tent." ”
Several people hurriedly threw the supply boxes in the tent out, and the oil lamps hanging on the shelves were blown over by the wind, and the kerosene inside exploded, poured on the sleeve of a young man, and immediately burned. Wang Sheng grabbed his arm and plunged it into the sand, and the roof of the tent was suddenly blown away by the wind, and several fixed ropes were torn open. The tent flew into the sky with a roaring flame.
The materials in front of the tent swirled and flew into the air, several people hurriedly pressed on the materials, Cheng Hao took out a shovel, and shouted while digging: "Quickly bury the materials." ”
They didn't care whether what Cheng Hao said was right or not, and more than a dozen people hurriedly began to dig pits and bury materials.
"Dig deeper into the pit and put up the tent in the pit......"
The crowd was suddenly stunned, not understanding what Cheng Hao meant, Cheng Hao scolded: "Whatever you see, you want to be blown to death by the wind!"
I don't know if these people understood it, they dug up with a shovel, and in less than a few minutes, they dug out two one-meter-deep sand pits and set up tents in the deep pits, the wind was not very strong, and it was naturally much easier.
More than a dozen people were crammed into two military tents, one by one, without any gaps, Leng Ai released white smoke, and the injured team members slowly recovered.
A thick layer of fine sand fell on the tent, and the wind outside could not be heard, and someone wanted to go out, but was stopped by Cheng Hao. As long as there is still the sound of sand falling, it means that the wind has not stopped, and now there is only a dead end when you go out.
"We're not going to be buried here, aren't we? ”
"As long as this tent doesn't collapse, we will never be buried here. ”
An old man in his fifties, wearing a large-framed glasses, said very sincerely: "Thank you, without you, I'm afraid we will ......"
Cheng Hao smiled: "It's nothing, help each other." ”
Wang Sheng asked curiously, "How did you save yourself in the desert?"
"What is that...... Cheng Hao looked embarrassed, smiled awkwardly, turned his head and asked the middle-aged man: "What are you doing here?"
In 1953, after the implementation of China's first five-year plan, everyone was working hard and unwilling to be left behind, a production movement kicked off, and in 1958, a great wave of leap forward was aroused, and the people of the whole country were high-spirited, and they all hoped to make a contribution to the country.
The middle-aged old man with glasses is their captain, his name is Changde, and he is an old party member. On the first night of their journey in the Badain Jaran Desert, they were attacked by wolves, one of whom was snatched by the wolves, and his fate is uncertain. The next morning, while one of the team members was tidying up the tent, he didn't know what he had touched, and his fingers began to rot, and in two days, the rot had reached 70 percent, and in the evening, the team member left them.
It is his glory to sacrifice for the construction of the country, and the others did not have the idea of retreating because of this matter, on the contrary, the perseverance of these people was even more determined, and just a few days after the calm, they encountered a sandstorm and almost drowned in the desert.
Wang Sheng asked, "What have you found?"
Chang De shook his head: "I haven't found anything yet, but ......" Chang De stopped talking, as if he had thought of something.
"What's wrong?"
"Who are you?"
Wang Sheng smiled: "Our identities must be kept secret, but don't worry, we are definitely not enemies." ”
Changde thought for a while and took out a notebook from his bag: "We suspect that the enemy has come here." ”
The notebook is a green plastic skin, the skin has been somewhat aged, turning the first page, the smile on Wang Sheng's face suddenly froze, and I saw three very beautiful traditional Chinese characters written on it: Ye Xianguo.
The bald head exclaimed, "He's not dead?"
Changde asked, "Who is he?"
Wang Sheng thought for a while and replied: "He was originally a member of the Consistent Dao, and later, he took the initiative to quit the Consistent Dao and cooperated with the public security to clean up the Consistent Dao, he should be regarded as a good person, have you seen him?"
Chang De shook his head: "No, this book was picked up when the tent was installed." ”
There was only his name in the notebook, and nothing was recorded, so it was impossible to know what Ye Xianguo had experienced. A few people chatted a few words, and never asked for meaningful news. After more than two hours, calm was restored, and Cheng Hao slowly opened the tent, and quicksand poured into the tent as if he didn't want money. The tents were almost completely submerged, and if the wind blew for another two hours, they would be buried in the sand.
Wang Sheng and the four of them did good things to the end, helping the exploration team to sort out the supplies, Changde held Cheng Hao's hand, and after a few thanks, Wang Sheng and the four of them prepared to leave.
"Help......
Wang Sheng vaguely heard someone calling for help, turned his head to look at the others, and the others were stunned in place, and seemed to hear the cry for help.
"Help......
Everyone heard the cries for help, and it was definitely not a hallucination. Hearing the sound, the voice came from the sand, the voice was small and weak, it should be a young man. Everyone hurriedly picked up the sand under their feet, but found nothing.
"Help......
There was a faint cry for help from under the sand, and everyone hurriedly picked up the shovel and dug down, and after a while, a red coffin lid appeared in front of everyone, and a few timid people were so frightened that they threw down the shovel and ran away.
There were bursts of cries for help from the coffin, although I don't know why this coffin was buried here, but one thing is certain, the people in the coffin are still alive, Wang Sheng took a few bold people to continue digging, and a few minutes later, a coffin more than two meters long was dug out.
When the lid of the coffin was opened, a fishy smell stimulated everyone's nerves, and when they looked into the coffin, several people were suddenly frightened.
The person in the coffin was already decomposed, and the wriggling internal organs could be seen through the gaps in the ribs, the huge head was glued to the bottom of the coffin, and the yellow teeth were exposed. If you don't listen to him, you can't tell his gender.
The person in the coffin seemed to be smiling when he saw Wang Sheng and them, and he slowly raised his arm, and the flesh stuck to the coffin pulled out red shreds.
The bald head covered his mouth and ran away, just ran two steps, wow, and vomited on the ground. It didn't matter if he threw up, the others followed suit.
"I see you again. ”
Wang Sheng's stomach was tumbling, he tried to restrain himself, Cheng Hao didn't seem to feel anything, covering his nose and observing him.
"Are you Ye Xianguo?"
"No, I'm Xiao Benbin. ”
The bald head exclaimed: "What, you are a toad! Where is Ye Xianguo?"
"Please, save me, I don't want to die......"
Wang Sheng wanted Leng Ai to release white healing smoke, but at this time he realized that Leng Ai didn't know when he had run ten meters away.
"Tell Ye Xianguo where he is first?"
"I don't know ......"
In January 1958, the central authorities instructed the establishment of a comprehensive missile test range in the desert, and it was not known how the Consistent Dao had obtained the information, and the remaining Consistent Daoist followers were ready to carry out a sabotage plan, but the result was a failure. Cheng Cheng Dao thought of Xiao Benbin, and Cheng Cheng Dao spent nearly a year digging a passage to the rift valley, and Xiao Benbin saw the light of day again.
The next day, the medical staff all had symptoms such as fatigue and massive hair loss, and in less than a week, two medical staff with weak physique died mysteriously. He has always invited foreign experts to diagnose him, and the diagnosis results surprised everyone, Xiao Benbin himself has strong electromagnetic radiation.
Half a month later, Xiao Benbin was taken to the desert. Every night, he would appear at the secret base, and a large number of PLA soldiers showed symptoms such as nervous breakdowns, vomiting blood, and skin ulcers.
The higher the temperature, the more serious the radiation symptoms, the temperature in the desert during the day reached more than forty degrees, Xiao Benbin was in radiation every day, his body began to turn red, at first he thought it was sunburn, and he didn't care, after a few days his skin began to fester, falling off. Half a month later, he was skinned alive.
Xiao Benbin's application to return to the Rift Valley to recuperate was rejected by Cheng Dao. In less than two days, Xiao Benbin's body festered more and more seriously, and he always said that Xiao Benbin had no use value, so he customized a coffin, and he was buried in the desert. As for where Ye Xianguo is, Xiao Benbin doesn't know, and he doesn't know the person named Zhang Sheng.
Cheng Hao asked, "How many consistent people are there in the desert?"
"Not long ago, there were many, but later, death bugs appeared, and most of the people were poisoned by death bugs......"
According to folklore, there is often a huge blood-red bug in the vast Badain Jaran Desert, which has a strange shape, will spray a highly corrosive and highly toxic liquid, and can also shoot an unknown stream of energy from the eyes, so that people or animals several meters away can be instantly injured, and then slowly devour the prey. That's why people call it the "Worm of Death".
"Where is Ye Xianguo?"
"I don't know, he seems to have been taken to the desert, I don't know the specifics, I haven't seen it. ”
Wang Sheng asked, "What else do you know?"
"I've said everything I know, please, save me......"
Cheng Hao took out a gun and aimed it at Xiao Benbin's heart, Wang Sheng covered Cheng Hao's hand: "Forget it, he's pitiful enough." ”
Cheng Hao sighed lightly: "For him, death is a relief. ”
I don't know if Cheng Hao deliberately tortured Xiao Benbin, he shot three times in a row before hitting Xiao Benbin in the heart. The coffin was buried again in the sand pit, Wang Sheng and the four of them said goodbye to the exploration team, and drove straight to the direction of Hohhot, more than half an hour later, there was a sand pile standing in front of them, and the top of the bulging bag showed half a green thing, like a tarpaulin of a truck.
