"We can save him, it's all right..." Barney waved his hands again and again. The Bushmen's arrows were coated with poisonous tree sap, and they could knock down prey such as antelope and bison with one arrow. Barney was very afraid. Conflict, the four of them will confess here.
A Bushman watched the four of them vigilantly, and soon other people came to carry the chief away, and blasted Lin Luoran and the others from their camp.
Although three of the four are monks, how did Lin Luoran do something to these poor poor people in naked clothes? She is not the only one. A butcher would not be such a vicious person.
For a while, the chief also fainted, and the Bushmen did not allow them to approach for treatment. The only way now is to wait for the chief to wake up, and then ask about the murals.
The Bushmen lit fires all night, and driving away the wild animals was a factor. In addition, the temperature difference between night and day in this desert is actually quite large, and you will still feel cold if you don’t light a fire.
Barney is a very qualified and hardworking guide. After the four returned to the jeep, Barney went to collect a lot of firewood and piled it next to the jeep. It seemed that it would be no problem to spend the night.
Lin Luoran watched him fiddle with the firewood, and suddenly remembered that they had bought some everything, but they forgot the matches and lighters. The monks really don’t need to bring it, but now that Barney is present, it’s not easy to use spells...
Baojia spread her hands, a bit gloating, she hasn't learned anyway, it's really cool to see the two of them can't use their own cultivation, haha!
But Barney's performance soon made Lin Luoran feel that the dollars Wen Guanjing paid were worthwhile. The three monks were "helpless". The black and thin Barney picked up a piece of wood with a hole, found some soft and dry withered grass and stuffed it in the tree hole, picked up a slightly thinner wooden stick, and stood in the forest. Luo Ran performed "drilling wood to make fire" in front of them!
… This is real? Baojia pinched the back of his hand quietly. This is technical work, so you have to watch it carefully.
Barney seemed to be an expert, and saw that the wooden stick in his hand was rotating quickly and regularly, and the friction quickly generated high temperature. With Barney's patience, thick smoke gradually emerged from the tree hole, and Barney screamed. After two blows, the smoke finally got bigger, but he became more careful, added a few leaves on the withered grass, and blew a few times with his lower body, the flame suddenly burst out of the smoke—this fire was finally born!
In Barney's opinion, it seems very common to really drill wood to make fire without relying on external force. Some of the beef that Lin Luoran and the others bought was in the trunk, and at this time, they took out sticks to skewer, and they would eat roast beef tonight.
The fire is slowly burning in an unhurried manner. Adding firewood seems to be a technical task. If the fire is too small, it will not be able to dispel the cold. If the fire is too large, it will easily make the firewood weak. The beef is on the flames. When it gradually turned golden yellow and gave off a tempting fragrance, Lin Luoran and the others also knew why Barney knew this.
Barney is also a Bushman, but they belong to a tribe close to the edge of a big city. Later, the government in power plans to designate the area where they are accustomed to hunting and migrating as a protected area. The Bushmen who are prohibited from hunting do not know how to plant. Dispersed, Barney's parents found a small job in the city. After living hard, they belonged to a rare enlightened Bushman. They sent Barney to school. Although he only finished middle school, Barney Now I am working as a cashier, although I am not doing very well, but it is very different from ordinary Bushmen.
But Barney has not forgotten the bushman survival skills such as drilling wood to make fire that he learned when he was young. Fortunately, he can also speak English. This trip made Lin Luoran and the others a lot easier because of him.
Lin Luoran and the others thought the beef skewers sprinkled with salt were average, but Barney ate them deliciously.
After eating the beef, the two men left the jeep to Lin Luoran and Baojia, and the two of them were going to set fire to fight all night.
The jeep was full of sand and dust. Although Baojia was not Miss Jiao, she had never experienced such suffering since she was a child. Besides, the mosquitoes, which smelled fresh blood, would stare at them, which made her very distressed.
Lin Luoran was resting in the front seat of the jeep with her eyes closed. Baojia occupied the back of the two-seat seat by herself, and heard a crackling sound of mosquitoes. Said quietly:
"Xiaoran, I used to feel that I was very bitter, and I never saw what my parents looked like... When I grow up, I will implicate you and grandpa... Today I saw a child who was thirsty and could only chew the roots of plants, you What kind of suffering is it to say that we are like this?"
One sentence made Lin Luoran remain silent. She still remembered that when she first met Baojia, she was still a little girl from the Imperial Capital, with a cold face, she was not close to others, although the girls from these places were smaller than them materially. Not sure how much better, but mentally
Some people always emphasize that spirituality is the most important thing, but that is only when they can survive, right? For example, in places like Africa, like the Bushmen, they have no food to eat and no clothes to cover their bodies. Why can they still hear their laughter when they first entered the camp
Is this the cause of contentment
The more one gets, the stronger one's desire will become... Lin Luoran still prefers the current life to penance.
She sighed and decided not to bother thinking about these merits philosophically dialectical questions. Soon he entered the sedation in the front seat—Wen Guanjing should like the fiery aura that is ubiquitous in the desert, right
Baojia stared at the glass window and counted the mosquitoes. She is a water-wood dual-line, and she couldn't practice at all in such an environment, and she couldn't sleep. Seeing that Lin Luoran and Wen Guanjing were both in meditation, she simply opened the car door quietly and prepared to get off. The car is breathable.
Lin Luoran left an early warning with her spiritual sense, and she could save Baojia at any time if she was in danger, so she didn't care too much.
Baojia sat on the mound in a daze, but let out a light sigh, and suddenly ran to the other side of the dune. After a few steps, he disappeared into the yellow sand all over the sky strangely.
Suddenly losing Baojia's aura, Lin Luoran suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and got out of the car, and ran towards the sand dunes. A wind blew up at night, and yellow sand was flying all over the desert. Where is the trace of Baojia in the stretching sand dunes that cannot be seen
So fast!
When she heard Baojia's sigh, she ran out. With her current speed, in just a few breaths, Baojia, a living person, disappeared right under her nose!
Lin Luoran was about to jump into the sand dunes, but his arm was tightly held by a hand.
This kind of movement had already surprised Wen Guanjing. Seeing that Lin Luoran was going deep into the sand dunes regardless, he grabbed her:
"Senior Sister Lin, this sand dune is weird... We may not be able to save her if we rush into it rashly!"
Lin Luoran was also concerned about it, but she was awakened by Wen Guanjing, and she also understood that being in a hurry would only cause bad things. The two confer among the fire, waking Barney up.
Barney was also very nervous when he heard that one of his employers was missing. He also took this kind of bad reputation very seriously.
"Swept away by the sand..." Barney seemed to remember something, his face a little unnatural. After repeated questioning by Lin Luoran, he finally revealed a curse that spread among the Bushmen, which was related to the wind and sand demon, but when he left the Bushman tribe, he was too young to remember it. Cleared up.
"The Chief..."
"Find the chief!"
It was rare for Lin Luoran and Wen Guanjing to speak in unison, but it was because they both thought of the chief's expression when he saw the photo at that time, and they seemed to be terrified before fainting.
There must be some connection between the two... Baojia's disappearance caused Lin Luoran to be in a state of confusion. Not caring about the feelings of her international friends, she quietly sneaked into the Bushmen's camp not far away, and will remain The sleepy young chief pulled it out like a chicken.
In fact, he was just frightened, and there was no need for Lin Luoran to perform any healing techniques. Barney poured some cold water on him, and the chief choked twice after a while, and woke up.
Seeing Lin Luoran standing in front of him by the light of the fire, the chief seemed to have not recovered from the shock, and pointed to Wen Guanjing's backpack and said something intermittently - the photo was taken out of Wen Guanjing's backpack .
After Barney's apparently trembling translation, it turned out that what the chief said over and over again was only one sentence - the curse of the demon!
Impossible... That is obviously the mural seen in the underground palace in the secret environment, the colorful aperture, and the monks who are constantly entering the aperture. This is a mural related to the mystery of the disappearance of the Nascent Soul monk. How could it be "the curse of the demon"
Seeing that the chief's words were unclear and his face was pale with fright, Lin Luoran didn't want to force him, so he frowned and said to Wen Guanjing: "I suspect Baojia's disappearance, this mural, there is some evil curse, maybe it is Interrelated things... Where exactly did you take this photo, let's go find it ourselves!"
Wen Guanjing was in a dilemma: "This was taken by a senior field worker. He couldn't tell the direction in the desert. It is said that he lost half his life when he walked out alive, but he couldn't find this place anymore... I don't know either. To tell you the truth, before this time, I had already searched this area through missions, but I couldn't find the location of these murals... Except for the owner of this land, these Bushmen, I really can't think of it, there are others Can someone help us find this place?"
Lin Luoran was stunned, but he was distracted when he first saw the photo, and he didn't ask clearly about the source of the photo. Now it doesn't make sense to blame Wen Guanjing.
Looking at the startled chief who was warming up next to the fire, he found the mural, but he must be persuaded to contribute!
Demon's curse
It doesn't sound like a good thing, I hope nothing happens to Baojia... Otherwise, Lin Luoran will feel guilty for the rest of her life.
