Chapter Thirty-Three
This unexpected situation made everyone present look ugly. Here we not only have to face the cruelty of nature and the threats of some unknown creatures, but also beware of conspiracies and tricks between people! It is indeed better to leave quickly!
We took a short rest and started to sort out our things. It was already dawn, the red sun rose, and the snowy sand dunes at night turned fiery red at this time.
During this period, I asked Dawuti, "Uncle Dawuti, did you hear what Aman shouted at Ziya when we were back there just now?"
"This," Dawuti thought for a moment, "I went far, but I probably heard some."
"What did they say?"
Dawuti recalled a little, "Aman seemed to ask Ziya to throw away something."
It was true, but looking at Ziya's expression just now, he seemed unwilling to give up those things. It seemed that he was a little lucky to the monster in the sand. But it was no wonder. Through these things, I could see that the monster in the sand seemed to only attack people or animals holding specific items, and the monster seemed to be afraid of water, but it was helpless against the camel standing in the water! As long as there were no such things on it, people were safe, and therefore Ziya and Oman had always been in conflict.
I looked outside the tent and saw Aman and Ziya in the distance sorting out the camels, while Ma Liangping sat quietly on the side, smoking leisurely.
I seemed to feel something was wrong. Kong Xue slapped me from behind, "What are you looking at? Get rid of it quickly and let's leave as soon as possible!"
I suddenly thought of a question and said, "I found a strange phenomenon."
Shi Tao next to him asked, "What is it?"
I pointed to the camp there, "After the accident between Ma Liangguo, I found that they seemed to have divided the things into two parts, Ziya and Oman accounted for one, and their things were hanging on the camel. The Ma brothers also accounted for one, but Ma Liangguo wanted to take their things alone, but after he was killed by the monster, the things disappeared."
Kong Xue nodded, "We have guessed all of what you said. What do you want to say?"
I told them not to worry, so I continued, "If Ziya and Oman were still struggling with whether to take out the things in their hands and how to take them out, why are Ma Liangping still here? His younger brother is dead and the thing that belongs to them is also lost, what is the meaning of him? Normal Li said that he should have our mentality and hopes to leave as soon as possible! But look at his current state," I pointed outside, "Ma Liangping seems to have no intention of leaving at all."
Kong Xue frowned, "It shouldn't be surprising. Ma Liangping and Ziya, Oman is his companions, so it's normal that he doesn't leave early."
I shook my head, "It's not like that. Although they are indeed coming together, their relationship is not close. From the last time when something happened to Ma Liangguo, it can be seen that Ziya and Oman care more about their own things at that time. Moreover, it is obvious that Ziya and Oman have relatively close relationships, and they are even a little wary of Ma Liangping."
After hearing what I said, Shi Tao also said, "Their relationship gives me the same feeling. So, is Ma Liangping staying here because he still has some intentions?"
I nodded, but Kong Xue didn't believe it very much, "Are you too sensitive?"
I waved my hand and lowered my voice, "Don't forget who used wolf urine to dispel our camels. Some of them must be the three of them to put a trap on us!"
As soon as I finished speaking, Kong Xue's expression also changed.
Since we made up our minds to leave, we each accelerated our hands. After we sorted out the things, we studied the next direction and route.
Almost all night was tossing and we didn't rest much. Dawuti was going to take us to another Haizi, the closest to this, and we arrived there as fast as possible, and then we would rest.
Just as everyone was about to move the things out, Mo suddenly frowned and said, "I always feel that there seems to be a strange smell in the tent!"
No one noticed it just now. Now when the scriptures reminded me, I took my nose and sniffed it carefully, "It seems that there really is a strange smell."
Dawuti also took a deep breath, and then his face changed, "This smell...is impossible!"
Seeing that Dawuti's expression was a little wrong, Shi Tao asked him, "Brother, do you know this smell?"
Dawu nodded, but did not answer, but asked, "What medicine have you brought?"
"Drugs?" We didn't understand what Dawut meant for a while. Kong Xue opened his bag. "What we brought was probably some commonly used drugs, cold medicines, antipyretics, antidiarrhea drugs, Yunnan Baiyao..."
Dawuti looked at the medicines and shook his head, "None, nothing is right..."
I hurriedly urged, "Uncle Dawuti, don't keep it aside, talk about it quickly."
Dawuti nodded and picked up the pipe inserted between his waist. I quickly grabbed him, "I said, Dawuti, can you stop smoking as soon as you speak? You'll finish it first, I'll light it for you, you can smoke slowly!"
"Okay!" As he said that, Dawuti put away his pipe and opened his mouth and was about to speak, when suddenly someone outside shouted, "Hey! Is there anyone?"
I cursed in my heart, at this critical moment! I was interrupted again!
When we heard the shout outside with a strong accent, I felt that the person who spoke should be one of Ziya or Oman. However, I was a little dissatisfied. Although they are ethnic minorities and do not speak Chinese very well, the tone of speaking is too rude.
I lifted the tent and asked angrily: "We are all here, can there be no one? What are you doing?"
Before I could finish speaking, Ziya and Aman said nothing, pushed me away and walked into the tent. I saw that they were both holding a ox-eared scimitar in their hands. It seemed that the visitors were not good!
Ziya and Oman stood in the tent and glanced coldly, "Are you leaving?"
Shi Tao stepped in front of them, "What do you mean?"
Oman snorted coldly, "You want to run? It's not that easy!"
"Want to run?" I frowned, "Do you still want to stop us when we are leaving?"
