The vast majority of people in the world are unwilling to walk in the desert.
In the desert, the most dangerous thing is the lack of water. In addition to the lack of water, you also have to deal with the quicksand and sandstorms in the desert, and there are countless dangerous creatures such as poisonous snakes, poisonous scorpions, and poisonous spiders that appear everywhere.
The sun is scorching hot, the air is fluctuating, the feeling of stepping on the sand is not good at all, the feet can't use their strength, and they will feel tired after walking a long distance.
The people in the entire town of Ramaji walked in this desert.
The Dupont River is a pearl on the edge of the desert. Even though the river gradually dries up and the river water becomes turbid with mud and sand, the people in the entire town of Ramaji still treat it like a treasure and live by the Dupont River all their lives.
On the first day Zongyuan came to this place, five people died by the Dubang Riverside.
The people in Ramaji Town never take it seriously. Dead people in the desert can only be regarded as a common occurrence, not to mention that the dead people are homeless people who strayed into this place.
But that night, the Dupont River flowing through the small town of Ramaji was completely occupied by poisonous scorpions overnight. Countless poisonous scorpions with vertical black tails appeared on the bank, and many of them had yellow-tailed fat scorpions with huge tails. , highly toxic.
No matter who saw this picture, his legs would tremble and his heart would feel cold.
Ruined.
A dense cloud of scorpions completely covered the yellow sand below.
The Dupont River could no longer be used, and the small town of Ramaji had to be moved.
Zong Yuan lowered the sun visor on his head, and changed into western cowboy equipment, which was kindly provided by Larry. He had been to the desert before, but this time he felt extremely relaxed. Larry and the others were already full of hair. Khan was exhausted, but he was still refreshed without a few drops of sweat.
"Zong, give me your things." Larry took a few breaths, "You carried all our things on your back, you must be tired by now."
Zong Yuan shook the sand off his trousers, and his tall and straight figure in leather boots really made people blush and heartbeat, "I'm not tired, Larry, you are the one who should rest."
The bulky things were put on the camels, and those who walked on foot carried scattered life-saving gadgets. Irene was too tired to speak, she sat down on the ground, Zong Yuan will A pot of water was handed to her, but she only dared to touch her lips.
Everyone was in a panic.
The people in Ramaji town are spoiled by the Dupont River, they don't need to look for new oases from time to time, so now they don't have the ability to travel long distances in the desert.
Zong Yuan was out of tune with the people around him who had collapsed on the ground tiredly. His trousers pocket protruded, and it was the green stone that was in it.
Irene handed him the water glass, unbelievable, "Zong, are you not tired at all?"
She didn't know if Zong Yuan was real or not, she was so relaxed on the face, she easily turned them into scum in seconds.
Zong Yuan replied, "Not tired"
Now that there is no wind, Zong Yuan walked up the dune, and when he got to a high place, he found a small black horn on the other side of the dune.
Zong Yuan stood with his feet one behind the other, defensively, "What is that?"
A pinch of black in the yellow sand is too conspicuous.
0046: "How do I know?"
"..." Zong Yuan, "Aren't you a fucking artificial intelligence? Can't pass satellites?"
0046 was embarrassed, "Hacking into the satellite system without permission is illegal."
Zong Yuan, "... hot chicken." What artificial intelligence, artificial mental retardation.
0046 still has some nostalgia in his heart, what a familiar name, since Zong Yuan didn't know what happened to him, Zong Yuan never talked to him again.
Zong Yuan didn't have a self-defense weapon, he cautiously approached the black mass, and just as he took a step, the black mass nestled on the top of the sand dune suddenly raised its head.
A pair of slender eyes, black and brown hair intersecting.
Zong Yuan's face darkened, "Jackal."
This jackal was small in size, and there was a crawling animal under its paws. Zong Yuan's eyes were very good, and he saw that it was a beetle.
Jackals are not very dangerous to the crowd. They are not social animals. Zong Yuan's face darkened, but it was only because of the state of the jackal in front of him.
This jackal has a bulging belly, lying lazily on the sand dune, playing with a beetle that should have been used as food in its paws.
Jackals are not just carnivores, but scavengers.
Zong Yuan took a step forward with one foot, the jackal gave him a vigilant look, and then quickly fled away.
Larry called him from a distance, "Zong, what are you doing?"
Zong Yuan walked up to the top of the hill and looked down, his face was instantly livid.
Over the dunes, more than a dozen corpses were piled up in a sandpit. The smell of rotting corpses suddenly became strong. Groups of vultures contentedly pecked at the corpses. The yellow sand was dyed red, and internal organs were everywhere.
0046,"vomit."
Zong Yuan suppressed his nausea. Just as he was about to call for someone to drive away the vultures and bury the corpses, he saw a corpse bouncing violently in the corpse pit.
A person with a hole in his stomach, and two vultures buried there pecking at his internal organs flicked a bit, isn't it scary
Zong Yuan frowned fiercely, and ran towards the corpse pit with a straight face, 0046 tremblingly wanted to stop him, "Zong Yuan, that is definitely not a living person, don't go there!"
Zong Yuan, "Is it possible that the dead can still move? What's more, I still have tasks to complete, and I can't let go of any weird places."
The flock of vultures flew into the sky in shock. They circled not far from the ground, trying to drive away the humans who disturbed them from eating.
Zong Yuan held his breath and entered the group of corpse pits, trying his best to ignore any corpses, and went straight to the bounced corpse.
However, when one walked in, everyone knew that the corpse was dead through and through.
The corpse's face was pockmarked and pitted, and one left eye was still wide open, as if it was still struggling desperately.
Zong Yuan sighed, closed his eyes, stood up, and Larry's voice on the sand dune gradually approached, "Zong, why did you run so far—?!"
Larry stood on the sand dune, and the impact of seeing this scene almost made him faint, "OMG!!!"
OMG! OMG! ! !
Before Zong Yuan could make a sound, 0046 suddenly screamed, and the strong noise stimulated Zong Yuan's brain to buzz, "Ahhh!!! He opened his eyes!!!"
Zong Yuan immediately turned his head to look at the corpse on the ground.
The eyes he had just closed had already opened at this moment, and the strange green pupils turned from left to right, as if they were looking for something, until they caught Zong Yuan's figure, the glowing green pupils stopped turning.
No breathing, no other response.
Rather than saying that the corpse is weird, it is better to say that this eye is weird.
Zong Yuan looked at this eye and remained motionless.
If you don't look at other things, but in this situation, this eye is definitely extremely beautiful.
The corners of the eyes are reddish, the color of the pupils is mysterious and sexy green, the eyelashes are very long, and they are very exotic and beautiful.
A vulture suddenly swooped down, grabbed the eye fiercely, and flew away quickly.
Zong Yuan stepped back subconsciously, and when he looked again, there were only dark eye holes.
The vultures seemed to have received a signal, and they all flew away in an instant. Zong Yuan's face was solemn, and he opened the other closed eyelid of the corpse, and saw an ordinary, featureless eye.
"Huh?" 0046 was shocked: "Not a pair of eyes?!"
Zong Yuan put down his hand and grabbed a handful of sand to wipe his hands. Larry was shaking all over and was almost speechless, "Zong, come here quickly!"
Zong Yuan stepped over the group of corpses in a few steps, stepped on a hard stone before walking up the sand dune, he paused, and dug out the stone under his feet.
The familiar green stone was still made into the shape of a scarab. Zongyuan turned the stone skillfully, and there was still a line of writing on it.
Zong Yuan said: "It looks different from the previous one."
0046 to the translator, "Death—"
A gust of wind blows generously, and the confusing wind and sand blows violently between Zong Yuan and Larry. The wind and sand come suddenly, but they are fleeting.
Huge English letters lay horizontally on the sand, piercing Zong Yuan's eyes nakedly.
Zong Yuan said blankly: "Death has favored you."
The moment he finished chanting, a smell of rotting corpse suddenly hit from behind, Zong Yuan's footsteps flashed, and the bloody breath fell to the ground accompanied by a small thing.
A bloody, fresh animal heart was placed in front of Zong Yuan.
The heart is still beating slightly as if it is alive.
Death is a gift given to the man he loves.
Zong Yuan looked at this thing silently for a few seconds, "Who is death?"
0046,"I don't know."
Zong Yuan thought, if death favored you, it proves that that thing wants to kill him.
this heart
Intimidate, threaten
He walked around the heart, and Larry was already sitting slumped on the sand dune, staring blankly at the corpse pit, not wanting to look but unable to look away. Zong Yuan stretched out his hand and waved in front of his eyes, "Larry, come back to your senses."
Larry got up smart, got up in a panic and walked back with Zong Yuan, "What is that? Where did so many people come from? How did they all die? Could it be that there are other people looking for the oasis
"No one knows," Zong Yuan walked quickly with long legs, "find someone to bury these corpses first, otherwise bigger scavengers will come from all directions."
There are too many rotting corpses in this pile, and now it is the time when the sun is at its strongest, and sooner or later the rotting stench will overflow, and it will be dangerous for them to travel by then.
The people in Ramaji Town knew this truth. They endured the nausea and desire to escape, and used the tools at hand to bury them in the sandpit roughly and simply.
Irene stood beside Zong Yuan, worried and angrily accused, "Zong, you shouldn't come here alone without everyone!"
Zong Yuan pursed his lips and looked at the buried sand in his pocket.
The blood went into the sand and was sucked clean by the sand.
Seeing that Zong Yuan didn't listen to her, Irene angrily took two steps closer and shouted loudly: "Zong! I'm talking to you!"
A loud sound suddenly sounded, accompanied by a yellow-green snake head emerging from the soil, its dark eyes stared coldly at Irene, and the bright red slender tongue stuck out, making a "hissing" sound.
A rattlesnake.
Its middle part is buried in the soil, its head is straight, its thick snake body swings, and its tail shakes violently.
Such a poisonous snake was actually hiding around them.
Irene was motionless, her body was cold, and she was stared straight at by the rattlesnake, and she was obviously the snake's prey.
Death is so close to her at this moment.
Since death favors a man, no one else is allowed to stay around him.
Exclusive and domineering desire, no one can refute death.
The author has something to say: Mummy: I have a special way to flirt! (pride)
Zong Yuan: …
