Chapter 31 The Frightened Camel
When Jingwen Mo said this, he recalled Ma Liangguo's strange movements on the sand dune just now, and I immediately understood Wenmo's meaning, "You mean that Ma Liangguo was not crawling by himself just now, but his body was dragged by something under the sand."
Wen Mo nodded, "That's it."
"But," I remembered a question, "If Ma Liangguo had died before climbing the dune, but we did not see any blood on the dune. His belly had been bitten like that, and there would be no blood along the way."
"This is not the case." Wen Mo said, "You can think of why Ma Liangguo was inserted into the sand dune like that, right?"
"This... should be related to the things under the sand!" Due to the frightened scene just now, my mind is still very confused and I can't figure out my thoughts for a while. I only know that everything in front of me is related to the monster under the sand!
"In fact, it's not just because of that thing, but also because of the bag on Ma Liangguo's body." Wen Mo pointed to his waist.
"Bake?" I recalled the canvas bag that Wen Mo picked out from the sand hole just now. The canvas bag and the strap were almost torn apart. I suddenly understood, "It was because the thing under the sand just now that it was Ma Liangguo's backpack. At the top of the dune, the thing pulled the backpack and pulled it down. The huge pulling force caused Ma Liangguo's body to be broken back. Is there something that weird under the sand in the bag that I want?"
Hearing my question, Wen Mo nodded, "This is not the real cause of Ma Liangguo's death. I said that he had died before being dragged onto the sand dunes. His real cause of death was the blood hole in his throat."
We were shocked when we heard this. This monster was indeed powerful. Ma Liangguo, who looked very strong, was killed by one blow.
Kong Xue said from the side: "The canvas bag has been torn by the thing under the sand, which means that the things inside the bag have also been taken away by the thing. If it comes for the things in the bag, it should have left."
I shook my head, "It's probably not that simple! Because I saw a similar canvas bag on the camels in Ziya and Oman."
Dawuti knocked the pipe in his hand, "If you don't put all the things you brought back, the devil will not let them go! Let's not get involved in their things, otherwise the devil's messenger will come to us!"
Shi Tao waved his hand and snorted coldly, "At this time, I still sacrifice my life and wealth! I deserve it! Let's not worry about them. It's still very windy outside now. We will leave as soon as possible when the sun dawns! Now everyone is hurrying up to rest."
This time, I asked the others to sleep first, and I came to watch the night. After experiencing what happened just now, I am sleepy and feel a little irritable. In fact, if I were to watch the people opposite Haizi kill one by one by one by one by the things under the sand, I would feel a little uneasy!
I really wanted to go over and persuade them to give up what I brought out of the desert quickly! My life was lost and nothing was gone! But I could imagine that what they brought out must be something ordinary, otherwise I would not fight to the death or give up.
The desert is like snow, and the Yanshan Mountain is like a hook. If it weren't for what happened just now, how poetic and picturesque would have been. Ma Liangguo's death gave me great excitement. The bloody scene appeared in front of me from time to time. I shook my head hard, forcing myself not to think about what happened just now.
I heard the wind outside getting louder and louder, and the wind mixed with sand blowing on the tent, making a rustling sound. As time went by, a feeling of sleepiness slowly came. I forced myself to get angry, but my eyelids were still fighting. I rubbed my face hard to make myself clearer.
Suddenly, I heard a noise outside the tent. Then I heard the sound of something running, and I suddenly woke up.
The first thing I thought about was whether the monster under the sand rushed out, but then I thought it was unlikely that these steps were messy, and no matter how powerful the monster was, it should have only four legs. Even if it was weird and had more legs, it would not produce such a chaotic effect, unless it was a big centipede demon!
My mind flashed! Oh no! It was a camel! I hurriedly got up, pulled out the tent and ran out. Sure enough, I saw our camels running around.
I immediately cursed, "Damn!" I quickly shouted at the camels running away, "Come back! Come back! Come back quickly!" I was also stunned at the time. These camels could understand what I said.
At this moment, Ma Liangping ran over and shouted while running, "Brother Zhuoran, what happened? Why did your camel run away?"
I shouted anxiously, "I don't know, hurry up, help me chase me!"
"Okay!" At this time, Aman and Ziya also ran over, so they and Ma Liangping looked in the same direction and chased after them.
My shouts woke up the rest of us. Everyone got out of the tent and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong?"
I pointed around, "Quick! The camel ran away! Everyone went to chase him separately!"
Each of us is aiming at one end and trying our best to catch up. In the desert, if there is no camel, it depends on our legs, then don’t think about anything. It’s better to go back as soon as possible. Moreover, although we unloaded the water, a large part of our food and equipment are still carried by the camel. If the camel is lost, we will lose a large part of the security. All I have left is water, and water is the least short of water at this time.
I stared at the camel I had ridden during the day and chased it as fast as possible, but in the desert, every time I took a step, the sand would not reach my ankle, and it was very difficult to run. I was already out of breath before I could run far. Fortunately, the camel didn't really want to run far, but after running for a distance, it gradually slowed down.
I saw the opportunity and went up to grab the reins of the camel. I held it on the camel and bent down and gasped. After resting for a while, I recovered, stood up and pulled the camel slowly and walked back.
It was a great blessing to return to the edge of the tent. The other camels were also chased back. Among them, Ma Liangping and Ziya also helped us recover one. But what surprised me was that Ma Liangping made him feel a little embarrassed and his boots were all wet.
This time, we tied all the camels to the poplar trees next to them to make sure they won’t run away again. We thanked Ma Liangping and Ziya. Ma Liangping and the others waved their hands repeatedly, "No, you have helped us just now!"
