Chapter 700: Submerged

The wind and sand roared past us, slashing the sand and slapped on my few exposed skins, like a knife, causing a sensation of pain.

Moreover, these sand that moves with the strong wind seems to have eyes, and they are specially selected to drill into the gaps in people's clothes.

A lot of sand has been poured into my head, inside and outside my clothes.

After more than ten minutes, we finally reached the bottom of the dune. The wind here was a little less, and it seemed like a good haven, but then I found that the situation is still very bad.

The wind and sand in the sky greatly restricted the vision. Although my vision is far beyond ordinary people, at most I can only see the situation within ten meters clearly at this moment.

Moreover, on the tall sand dunes on my right hand, they are constantly eroded by the strong wind.

The sand at the top of the dunes kept rolling down from high places with the wind. When you lower your head, you could see some sand, like running water, passing by my feet.

In just a moment, layers of rolling sand had flooded my ankles.

Meanwhile, the dunes are getting shorter at an extremely fast speed.

I couldn't help but wonder: If the winds were stronger, would we be buried alive?

The surrounding dunes made strange noises in the strong wind, like a centenarian roaring and a baby crying. Everyone showed a bit of impatience, including our guide.

He stood not far in front of me, saying something.

But the wind was too loud, and I couldn't hear what he said. Even if I heard it clearly, I didn't understand his dialect of mutton-flavored mutton.

A little further away, Wang Gang waved his hand to signal us to gather towards him.

After we were all over, he yelled with all his strength, "We must do something! If the wind can't stop for a while, we'll be done!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Yes, but what can we do?"

I couldn't help asking.

Wang Gang was silent, and the others frowned.

People are small in front of nature, not to mention under such harsh environments.

In the end, we could only choose to gather ten camels together, barely treating them as a thick but not reliable wall to block some of the raging wind and sand for us.

We stood in the small open space in the middle of the camels, and from time to time we had to pull out our legs that were submerged in the sand again.

I even heard someone praying.

As time passed, the sky gradually became darker, but what was hopeless was that the wind became stronger.

The bottom of the sand dune we are in has been raised by at least nearly ten meters, which is equivalent to several floors.

The sand dunes that had blocked our wind before were also cut off most of the sand dunes like a knife.

Just thinking about it is scary enough.

"Wouldn't it be a little too frustrating if we just died like this?"

Fire Monkey said with a wry smile.

"If you want to die, you will die. Will you speak?"

Yang Hui couldn't help but raise her hand and punch Huo Hou, and scolded him for his bastard's words.

But we all know that if we are not lucky, we may be buried here.

Suddenly, Abu patted my shoulder, and he gestured, looking very anxious, and signaled me to look west.

Looking in the direction he pointed, I was in a state of discomfort.

We are now in a direction that we can just cross the dunes to the west.

Although the sight is blurry and I can't see things from farther places, I can't stand the huge scale of the thing.

In the distance, a large cluster of black clouds rolled across the sky.

I know very well that it is not a black cloud, but a sandstorm!

Such a large-scale sandstorm is roughly estimated to cover at least ten kilometers. Even from a distance, I can feel the suffocating feeling of oppression.

I quickly told the others about this

"What?"

"This is so lucky, damn, this is going to kill us all here!"

Now, even Wang Gang was panicked.

The guide on the side chopped his feet in anger and stomped his feet in a hurry.

The speed of the sandstorm is extremely fast. Although it seems to be a long distance from us, it will probably not take long before it will run over us.

"Camel, hold on to the camel! Hurry! If you want to survive, you can only rely on these big guys! Everyone hurry up!"

Wang Gang, who came to his senses, took action as soon as he finished speaking.

More than twenty people and ten camels were still easy to distribute. I, Huo Hou and Yang Hui, and the three of us hugged the three legs of the same camel. The camel was carrying many tools that might be used in this operation.

Everyone was anxious and anxious, waiting for the arrival of the sandstorm.

This moment came very quickly. When the wind and sand swept even more violently, I knew that the sandstorm was coming!

Looking back, we seemed to be in our arms by darkness.

The light that the eyes could see decreased rapidly, and I couldn't even see other people just a few meters away from me.

The wind and sand hit my back, as if I was about to tear me off the camel.

But I can't let go. Once I let go, I'll probably be submerged somewhere in the desert, flooded by a large amount of flying sand, and rest here forever.

Masks can play a very minimal role.

The wind was too strong, and even wearing a mask, I felt it was difficult for me to breathe. Every time I took a breath, I had to force my breasts, and my mind gradually became blurred.

Suddenly, I felt someone pinch me.

It's Yang Hui.

"Hurry up and put this thing on!"

She said, quickly stuffing a black thing into my arms. I took it closer and saw that it was two gas masks, with a metal bottle the size of a fist inserted underneath, with high concentration of oxygen inside. After wearing the mask, it will be released to assist in breathing.

"Why are you taking it out now?"

I handed the Huohou one, then put on a gas mask, and then I felt that my breathing was much smoother and my mind became clearer.

But I thought of a question.

Since there is such a good thing, why didn't she take it out earlier? Such a big dust storm was raging, and it would definitely not work for those team members and others to wear masks, and a large number of people would definitely die.

"There are only nine of these masks, eight of them are for us, and one is for spare."

Yang Hui's voice was very difficult, "But there are more than twenty people in the team, and there is no enough score. If I took it out just now, it would definitely cause unnecessary disputes, so this is the worst case. In short, let's talk about it after this!"

Upon hearing this, I understood her difficulties.

If it were me, my behavior would be like her. After all, this is a time that concerns my life.
