Chapter 12: The Legend of the Western Desert: The Demon Night Panic
In the night, Tang Long suddenly woke up. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
He had a nightmare!
As the saying goes, there are thoughts in the day and dreams in the night. The strange encounters during the day were like a magic hand that probed into his mind, even in his dreams, he had to be entangled with him! Tang Long opened his eyes, and under the dark night, he still couldn't forget those eyes.
What is the reason for such desperate eyes!?
Tang Long only recalled it slightly, and the scene of the day immediately reappeared vividly in front of him.
・・・
・・・
When the gloomy dark clouds covered the sky, and a hail as sharp and angular as crystal suddenly fell, Tang Long's heart was so frightened that he couldn't have imagined that the legend of the scorching sun and hail actually existed here.
For the vast majority of people who are about to die of lack of water, this is a life-saving "timely rain", only Tang Long, who was lying on the stretcher in shock, but inadvertently silently watched a scene that made his body cold.
It was an old bearded man with gray hair, he was lying on the ground, his face was covered with grains of sand, and while everyone else was crying with joy, only the corners of his wrinkled eyes showed cloudy tears, and a hailstone fell in front of him.
A child rushed from the side, taking the opportunity to pick up the hail, the old Hu man tried to stop it, but he was pushed to the ground, the old Hu man got up from the ground, the child has disappeared without a trace, he also found that the people around him who were robbing the hail have fallen into madness, his eyes gradually turned to emptiness and despair!!
Suddenly, the corners of his chapped lips were opened, and Hu Ren's loud voice let out a hoarse and low wail at this time, he was shouting!
"Plumdy!"
Plumti !!
The figure of the old Hu man was gradually covered by the crowd, and only the mourning sound still lingered in his ears.
The night breeze in the desert blew by, making people feel a little cold, Tang Long was awake in vain, and more questions were coming. He couldn't help but pull out the water bag in his arms, which was filled with the water that had been dissolved by the hailstone.
"Plumti"
What is it?
He regretted it a little at this time, he only hated that he didn't arrest Lao Hu Ren for questioning at that time, and blamed the scene for being too chaotic at that time, plus the horse thief suddenly blew the rallying horn and called Ma San away, and by the time Tang Long reacted, he had completely lost the important clue of Lao Hu Ren.
Lao Hu Ren died, and when Tang Long found him, he found that he had become a cold corpse, and he had many scars on his body, but the real cause of his death was lack of water!
Isn't this as funny as a child dying of starvation because he had no one to feed him?! No, this is not funny, Tang Long still remembers his desperate eyes, which are clearly an indictment of fate!
It is better to starve to death than to eat the food that comes from it.
What is the reason why the old Hu people would rather die of thirst than eat life-saving hailstones?

Tang Long opened the opening of the water bag with doubts, the liquid inside shook slightly, and the tip of his nose sniffed lightly, and immediately sniffed out a pungent odor.
Tang Long frowned, he remembered that during the day, this hail was actually colorless and odorless.
What made it change?, and there was one more doubt in my heart.
Call~~
Tang Long looked into the distance and took a deep breath, trying to spit out the pressure in his heart because he couldn't solve the confusion.
At this time, the night was thick, and a burst of dark clouds dispersed, revealing a bright moon in the sky that was both large and round, and the sprinkling moonlight brought a trace of warm light to this dark world, and the night of the desert appeared! Here are slopes of sand dunes, in which light and darkness alternate, and the sound of the wind whistling by adds a touch of gloom to it.
Woo woo ~ woo woo woo !!
Suddenly, a strange chirp came from the northwest, and Tang Long's head shook and his spirits became vibrant. He immediately followed the source of the sound, and saw a sand slope dozens of meters away, which seemed to have a slight change.
That's, a figure?
When the moonlight splashed on the sandy slope, Tang Long confirmed that the figure was actually two people, one big and one small.
Are they trying to escape?
Tang Long could understand this move, the hail that fell during the day provided an abundant source of water, and if the Hu people were familiar with the desert, they would probably take the opportunity to escape.
But why did that strange cry come from?
・・・
・・・
Rustle
Next to my ears, I heard the sound of footsteps stomping on the sand.
Someone!
Tang Long didn't have time to think about it, only to see a person standing more than ten meters away in the dark night.
At this time, who else will sleep without intention?
With the help of the surprisingly bright moonlight, Tang Long was able to silently watch the comers.
He's getting closer!
Tang Long lay on a stretcher and observed quietly. The closer this person got, the clearer his figure became, Tang Long felt a sense of familiarity in vain, and when his face appeared under the moon, Tang Long shouted in surprise, "Little Brother Su?"
With that delicate and clean face, Tang Long would not be mistaken.
"Brother Su?"
Tang Long shouted at him again, but Brother Su was still indifferent, and when the two got close, Tang Long was a little frightened, he was walking with his eyes closed.
"Sleepwalking?"
Tang Long secretly whispered a fuss, sleepwalking was not uncommon in the previous life, but here, if the sleepwalker broke away from the team at night, woke up the next day, lost his direction and water source, he would face death alone, Tang Long thought about it, if this person has nothing to do with him, it would be fine, Brother Su also saved his life, then he can't be left to fend for himself, be a man, you have to know how to repay him!
Tang Long gritted his teeth, he stretched his hands forward and slapped them on the ground hard, the soft sand and soil passed by, his arm pulled forward with force, and his upper body immediately slid on the sand.
He hadn't left the stretcher yet!
"For you, I'm also quite hard!" Tang Long laughed at himself, his hands continued to exert force, his chest moved forward, and crawled in the direction of Brother Su. Crawling is actually very difficult for people who have lost the sensation of their legs, but fortunately, Brother Su is not fast, moving step by step, Tang Long will not take long to catch up, but the more Tang Long crawls, the more frightened he is, and he found in vain that there are countless pairs of footprints on the ground at some point!!
The footprints are intricately alternated, but they all face in one direction! Tang Long looked down and saw that it was still the northwest hillside!
The familiar and strange premonition in my heart came to my heart again!
By the way, what about the two fleeing figures? Tang Long looked at it, his eyes scanned back and forth on the hillside, and after a long search, he finally found the figure, but _
Tang Long frowned
It's just that why did the little figure disappear without a trace? Tang Long raised his eyebrows and tried to find it, but the figure on the hillside moved, and he could faintly see him raise his head!
The whistling wind blew, bringing a scattered sound of broken sound: woo woo ~ woo woo!
Tang Long listened with his ears up, and this time, he actually heard it very clearly!
Woo...
Is this, crying?
Woo woo ~ ~
Sad and desolate bass rings in the ears!
This is indeed a cry!
Tang Long was taken aback, who would cry next to him? He thought of something in an instant, and his body suddenly exploded with goosebumps!
He couldn't help but turn around and look, his pupils immediately shrank, and he saw that Brother Su behind him lowered his head and shook his body tremblingly, the night was his background, woo woo ~ Woo Woo's cry is dubbing! What's even more terrifying is that behind Brother Su, there are constantly scattered crowds of people emerging, they are as silent as Brother Su, moving to the northwest like walking corpses!
It seemed that in the northwest direction, something was hidden in the gloomy night, peeking greedily into it.
"What the hell is going on?"
Tang Long was puzzled, but his men's movements did not stop, and when he climbed to the feet of Little Brother Su, he did not hesitate to grab his bare feet and trip him to the ground.
"Are you alright?"
A puff of sand and dust rose on the ground, and Tang Long immediately crawled forward, only to see that Brother Su was lying on the ground, his body trembled, and he pouted his ass suddenly, he was crawling forward like a worm!
It's not sleepwalking at all!
Tang Long grabbed his arm, pressed his shoulder on the other side, and pulled him to him, his chest immediately became wet, and Xiao Ge Su's mouth was constantly dripping saliva, Tang Long pressed him to the ground, constantly shaking his body.
"Brother Su, wake up, wake up!"
This had no effect, on the contrary, the resistance from Brother Su's body became stronger and stronger, and there was a tendency that it could not be suppressed.
I had no choice but to forcibly wake up.
Tang Long took out the water bag in his arms and poured the clean water inside on his face, as soon as the clear water touched his cheek, Brother Su's thin body suddenly exploded with great force, overturning Tang Long to the ground.
Whoa!
Brother Su wiped off the water, and the water was regarded by him as sulfuric acid, and a terrifying roar like a monster came out of his mouth! When he opened his eyes, he reflected a yellow glow, and inside was a pair of needle-shaped pupils!
Tang Long's heart palpitated for a while, could this be a human eyeball?
The pair of needle pupils flickered, looking at themselves!!
Roar!
Brother Su pounced on Tang Long suddenly, Tang Long had already been on guard, seeing him pounce, Tang Long took the lead in grabbing his neck, tightly clamping his head under his armpit, restricting his strength, so close that Tang Long could smell the stench emanating from his mouth.
Brother Su is like a wild beast, he is extremely powerful, dragging Tang Long on the sand with his bare hands, his way of moving is like a human and an insect, sometimes climbing on the ground with his hands, sometimes twisting wildly with his waist, but he has never really attacked himself, which makes Tang Long realize that he is not the target of Brother Su!
Tang Long couldn't help but look in the direction he was heading, what was there?
A small figure appears in sight!
It was a child!
Tang Long's brain is like a lightning strike,
Lonely children, strange roars, late-night deserts and unstoppable hot winds!! the legends heard during the day came to mind:
・・The endless hot wind will stop at this time, and in the middle of the night, the desert will be filled with the roar of monsters, so be sure to keep an eye on the children!
This is, the demon night panic!!!!
Tang Long's heart was so frightened that he instantly understood where the missing little figure had gone!!
