Chapter 83 Sand Wolf
The cold wind blew in from the cracks in the tent late at night. The sand on the ground was so cold that cold people couldn't help but curl up in a ball. There was a whistle outside the tent mixed with the sand and the wind was blowing unscrupulously.
I pulled the sleeping bag tightly until only my nose and mouth were exposed, turned over and continued to sleep.
As soon as the sun showed its head, Zarang asked us to get up and hit the road. When we got up, we found that the roof of the tent had been covered with a thick blanket of sand overnight, and the sand under our feet was at least ten centimeters higher.
After eating some dry biscuits and drinking some water, everyone packed up their equipment and prepared to embark on the goalless journey again.
I originally thought that a night's rest would relieve my fatigue, but when I woke up in the morning, I discovered that my entire thigh was swollen. After I opened the blisters under my feet with a needle, I now feel burning pain under my feet every step I take.
Everyone's traveling speed has dropped significantly.
"Oops! This leg doesn't seem to be mine anymore. It's so damn uncomfortable. My whole body is so sore." Dunzi pulled his leg and nagged.
"You are screaming in pain right now. There is still a long road ahead. We haven't entered the real desert yet. We are still on the edge of the desert. If we want to enter the Kumtagsha Desert, follow our walking method.
It will take at least four or five days." Sarang said with a smile while directing the camels.
"My mother! Isn't this going to cost me my life? If I keep going like this, my legs won't be able to stop my legs." Dunzi backed down after hearing what Sarang said.
After all, everyone was standing still. The sun was rising higher and higher, and the temperature was getting hotter and hotter. At around nine o'clock in the morning, the temperature was above 30 degrees Celsius. At noon, I still don't know why.
However, the edge of the desert was so unbearable. If we really walked into the desert, I was really worried about whether we people could bear it. Bead-sized beads of sweat on our foreheads flowed into our eyes, causing burning pain on our backs.
Sweat has soaked into the jacket, and there are waves of heat in the air. Looking into the distance, the entire desert seems to be burning.
"It's so smart of you to still wear senior clothes on such a hot day." Before the sun came out, Dunzi took off his long clothes and trousers and wore shorts and a T-shirt.
"I told you to wear camouflage, but if you don't listen, you will suffer a loss later. Don't blame me for not reminding you." I reminded Dunzi, but this guy didn't want to listen to anything I said. The temperature in the desert is very high, and
There is nothing to shade the sun, and the ozone layer here is thin, so ultraviolet rays are very harmful. Except for Dunzi, we almost all wrapped ourselves up tightly, trying not to leave any skin exposed.
Sarang, who was walking at the front, suddenly knelt down on his knees and faced the sun and made a prayer gesture, "Thank you to the Almighty Allah for giving us such beautiful weather. May the Almighty Allah bless you to keep it like today in the next few days."
"
"I said that guy named Sarang, why are you so shameless? It's okay if everything is like today in the next few days. You should quickly tell that piece of shit of yours to Allah and ask him to give us some wind. Next
Let's have a little rain. It's going to be suffocating if this goes on." Dunzi's nose almost twisted with anger when he heard Sarang's prayer.
"Boss, don't talk nonsense. Allah will hear it. Weather like this is rare. It must be Allah blessing us." Sarang knelt on the ground and said sincerely.
In fact, I don’t know much about the weather in the desert. This kind of weather can be said to be rare good weather, but I can’t imagine the bad weather. We walked westward along the desert and looked at the compass to see the direction.
That's right. According to Sarang, he has been to the east of the desert several times in the past few years to transport supplies for some passing merchants. There are still camel caravans passing there. He has not seen any ancient city ruins. The west is uninhabited.
In this area, due to the bad climate, no one walks this route, so the ancient city may be in the west.
The sun is at its hottest at noon, and the sand on the ground is over 50 degrees Celsius. There are faint heat waves in the air. Everyone feels a little like heat stroke, and their heads are dizzy. Few people speak, only thinking about the difficulties.
As we move forward, we occasionally stop to rest and drink some water.
"Look! What is that?" Wang Kaitai shouted as if she had discovered what it was.
Following the direction of Wang Keai's finger, everyone looked and saw that three hundred meters away from us, there was a thin animal watching us from a distance. Due to the distance, I could only tell that it was about the size of a dog. It was golden all over.
The color is almost the same as that of the desert. If you don't look carefully, you won't notice its existence.
"Hey! There are animals here. Let me take them down and improve the food for us." Dunzi said as he took out the pistol from his waist.
"Oops! No, boss, don't shoot. Don't mess with it. We have to go to the market and change our route." Sarang said anxiously.
"What's wrong, what kind of animal is that? Is it that scary? Look at the guy in our hands." Dunzi said, shaking the gun in his hand in front of Sarang.
"Boss, we can't mess with this thing called Sand Wolf, otherwise we'll get into trouble. I really hope that one in the distance doesn't notice me." Sarang shook his head and sighed.
In the desert, there is a kind of desert wolf that lives in the desert and the Gobi Desert. This kind of wolf is small in size and has strong endurance. It can endure long-term hunger and thirst and can adapt to the harsh environment of food scarcity, but it has also changed due to this.
They are extremely ferocious. They usually move around the Gobi and desert edge areas or oases, preying on all animals in the desert, including humans. The most terrifying thing is that this kind of sand wolf likes to come out in groups to forage, and the division of labor is very clear and very organized.
Discipline, usually in groups. When the wolves are foraging, there will be two or three scouts in front of the wolves. Once there is a large prey like a camel or a desert cow, he will notify the surrounding wolves to encircle him.
prey.
"Knock it off quickly, don't let it run away." I shouted anxiously while wearing the Desert Eagle around my waist.
But before I took out my gun, I didn’t know whether the wolf was frightened by my shouts, or realized that we were going to attack it, so it ran away. I took out my gun and chased behind me. The movement of the sand wolf
The speed was very fast, and due to the distance, all the good machine guns could hit nothing. The sand wolf was frightened, and the speed was even faster. Dunzi and I gave up after chasing it for dozens of meters. We had to change our route quickly, otherwise the sand wolf would not wait.
It would be a big deal if you find a companion.
Sarang pulled the camel and shouted loudly. The camel trotted on the sand. A few of us followed Sarang, running one foot higher and one foot lower. From time to time, someone fell. This kind of escape was almost in vain.
Yes, there is no cover in the vast desert. With a keen sense of smell, it is very simple to catch us.
