Chapter 28 Walking through the Flame Mountain

After the horror, the camel team continued to go on the road, but fortunately the cold wind became lighter in the second half of the night.

However, Tiemo was quite angry about Lao Xu's behavior of kneeling down to worship Changshengtian. But Mengmeng rescued him. What's the matter with Changshengtian?

The next day, when the sun was warmer, Xu Kui asked everyone to sleep and rest in a relatively leeward place.

Tiemo was very tired. As soon as the team stopped and ate something, he hugged Mengmeng and fell asleep.

Mengmeng was very unhappy with Tiemo's scoundrel behavior, but for more wine, she could only bear it for the time being.

I don’t know when I slept, but I felt someone patting my cheek. I opened my eyes reluctantly and saw a slutty face with a big tongue.

"What are you doing? If you dare to disturb me when I sleep, you will have no alcohol in the future!"

Mengmeng waved her wolf claws with a grievance, and then Zhou Dingshan's voice came from behind her.

Zhou Dingshan lay beside him and carefully took out a piece of rope from his arms, "Brother Tie, look, the rope is broken."

"Huh?" Tiemo's sleeping worm immediately went seven or eight minutes, carefully observed the break, and it could almost be concluded that the rope was cut by a sharp weapon. "Tsk tsk, I just said why the rope was broken well, and it happened to be Chang Minyue and the others who fell behind."

"What should we do now?"

"Pretend to pretend not to know, wait until everything goes out of the desert. I will notify my brothers secretly and be more careful."

After lying down again, I couldn't sleep any longer.

Why did Chang Minyue leave the team? What secrets are hidden in it?

......

In the next few days, the road ahead was still difficult, but fortunately, there were no more people left behind.

Under the bitter cold wind, the sand was like a knife, and he was rushing the road mechanically, but Zhou Dingshan's cry sounded behind him.

There was never a chance in the Beida Desert. I thought Changsheng was innocently favoring people like me, but after a few days, some people still couldn't stand it.

The first one to fall was Zhou Pu, one of Zhou Dingshan’s three senior brothers. Zhou Pu felt a little uncomfortable the next day, but the team couldn’t stop, so he could only keep walking, but eventually he fell down.

The Changjia Camel Team led a doctor. He checked the situation of Zhou Pu next time and shook his head gently.

"No treatment, let this brother go!"

Zhou Dingshan was a little reluctant and even unwilling to give up. Senior Brother Zhou Pu broke through so many battles, but did not die at the hands of the enemy, but died under the cold wind and sand.

People can kill people, but they cannot defeat nature!

On the dark night, Zhou Dingshan untied the rope tied to Zhou Pu's waist with his own hands, then cut off a finger from Zhou Pu and carefully wrapped it in his arms.

In less than a month, from Daqingshan to Beida Desert, Zhou Dingshan has long since faded away from his tenderness after several battles and cruel tempering, and his face has become more fortitude and maturity.

Wiping away the tears, he kowtowed several times at Zhou Pu's body.

The camel caravan moved forward again, and those who were used to death had already been numb. There were only the sounds of camel bells that seemed to be paying homage to the homeless souls.

.....

The sun rises and sunsets, the wind blows wild sand, and the time in the desert seems to be endless. The biting cold burns the blood in the body.

Tie Mo only felt that his soul was getting more and more irritable. Facing the wild sand of the world, he wanted to fight.

Raise the machete and angrily heading northwest. It’s a pity that the divine power of heaven and earth can’t even find an enemy.

Confused and helpless, only keep moving forward.

What’s funny is that some people actually praise the long smoke and setting sun in the desert. Haha, since ancient times, most of the people who sing about the desert are literati hiding in honeypots, right?

All living beings, people standing on high places.

Have you ever known that frost and snow are ruthless, and the desert is like a knife, burying the dreams of many people.

Have you ever known that quicksand is everywhere in the sky and dust is everywhere, killing generations of lives?

The desert has no romance or magnitude.

The desert is the devil and the abyss.

.........

The road is difficult, but you still have to look forward.

Life never stops, battle never stops.

A few days later, the wind and sand became weaker and the sun became much clearer. At least the sky was no longer misty. Looking around, you can see a hundred feet ahead and you can see the view below.

Old Fan tilted his body and held Xu Kui. The two of them looked at the sunset in the distance and suddenly smiled foolishly.

"Haha... Mom... I'm finally going to get out of this ghost place..."

"Yes... but four lives were lost..."

"Fortunately, I didn't die here!"

Listening to the conversation between Fan Laowai and Xu Kui, I really don’t know whether to be happy or sad.

Under the setting sun, the dunes are rolling and the sand here is no longer golden, but a dark red, which blooms continuously, like a fiery red ocean.

There are mountains in the distance, staggered in an orderly manner, like a stone building dug by hand. Before we get close, we feel that there is a wave of heat coming.

Keep moving forward, signs of life appear in the sea of ​​sand.

A cactus grew in the next door, and a lizard quickly crawled over, leaving clear footprints. But the wind blew, the quicksand swept over, and quickly covered the footprints.

The mountains are like giant pieces of earth, red all over, and blend into the red sea of ​​sand.

The world is red, like a bloody world, full of psychedelic colors. This is the first time Tiemo has seen such a grand scene, and he can't help but be amazed.

Xu Kui raised his hand and felt a little more joy on his face.

"Everyone pay attention, this is the Flame Mountain. Look at your feet and be careful of the poisonous snake."

Xu Kui took the initiative to slow down and walked side by side with Tiemo. Perhaps because he was about to walk out of the desert, he was in a good mood and talked more.

"Mr. Tie, you look red all over. Does it look like Flame Mountain? This place has a special terrain. For some reason, the temperature is much higher than elsewhere. Even in winter, snakes and insects will appear. Go forward and after passing Flame Mountain, we can find a place to make a fire overnight."

The range of Flame Mountain is not large, and in just half an hour, the camel caravan passed through the low canyon.

After leaving the canyon, there was a sparse sand jujube forest. When the camel caravan entered the forest, Xu Kui asked people to find firewood to attract fire.

When you walk out of the Northern Desert alive, everyone has a feeling of being a human being. Light the fire and feel the warmth brought by the fire.

When I was happy, some people drank wine and some people sang songs. Although the song was so ugly, it could bring happiness to people.

Mengmeng took a few sips of wine and whipped her neck twice.

"Hot... wuwuwu..."

He glanced at the man singing in the distance, Mengmeng drooped her ears with contempt, trying to block the unpleasant sound.

The goblin rolled his eyes and patted his chest, making the singing louder.

...........

One night passed by in a hurry.

The next day, Tiemo was still sleeping, but was awakened by a strange sound.

Opening his eyes, holding the machete nervously, and listening carefully to the sounds in the distance.

The sound became clearer and clearer from far to near, and Tiemo's face changed drastically, it was the sound of horse hooves.

As soon as I spoke out for a reminder, a group of shadows appeared in my field of vision.
