Chapter 352 Someone suddenly appeared
Fang Xiaocao walked to the pickup truck, opened the door and got in. The sun was no longer so poisonous now. Although it was hot in the car, it was still bearable. Just sit on the sand.
Leaning on the seat, Fang Xiaocao took out a small hidden weapon and turned it between his fingers to practice his control over the hidden weapon.
Looking at the vast sea of sand, Fang Xiaocao was lost in thought.
Suddenly, Fang Xiaocao’s expression changed.
He subconsciously sat up straight.
“What is that?”
Fang Xiaocao stared ahead with squinted eyes.
In Fang Xiaocao's sight, a small black spot suddenly appeared in the vast sea of sand.
It's just that the distance is too far, and Fang Xiaocao can't tell what it is with the naked eye.
But Fang Xiaocao was certain that this little black spot definitely appeared suddenly.
When her eyes swept over there just now, this little black dot was not there yet.
Fang Xiaocao secretly became vigilant.
I took a telescope from the back seat of the pickup truck and looked over there.
Three seconds later!
Fang Xiaocao's eyes widened.
That turned out to be a person!
A man who looks extremely embarrassed.
“Why are there people here?”
“Still wandering in the desert on foot?”
Fang Xiaocao showed a surprised expression.
It’s incredible!
Fang Xiaocao did not hesitate and got out of the car immediately.
She had to wake up Taotie and the others.
A man walking on foot suddenly appeared in the desert, which seemed weird no matter how you thought about it.
To know their current location, although they are still on the outskirts of the desert, they still need to drive several hours from the edge of the desert.
Most people would never come here.
What's more, that person's position is deeper than theirs.
No fool would believe that this person has no problem.
Fang Xiaocao quickly ran to Taotie's tent and shouted: "Taotie, get up quickly, there's something going on, I found someone!"
Before Fang Xiaocao finished speaking, a rustling sound came from the tent. The zipper of the tent was opened, and Taotie got out.
“Where is there?”
Taotie asked in a deep voice.
Fang Xiaocao handed the binoculars to Taotie, raised his hand and pointed to the front left: "Over there!"
Taotie immediately followed Fang Xiaocao's instructions and used the binoculars to check.
"Hey?"
"What a human being!"
Taotie muttered in surprise.
“Let me see!”
Hearing this, the gopher also got out of the tent.
Taotie gave the telescope to the gopher.
The gopher looked through the telescope.
He showed a solemn expression.
“There is definitely something wrong with this person!”
The Drilling Rat said in a deep voice.
"Everyone knows he has a problem."
Taotie said, rolling his eyes.
Fang Xiaocao glared at Taotie: "Speak nicely, will you die if you don't confront me?"
After being scolded by Fang Xiaocao, Taotie became honest.
"Driller, you have a lot of experience, can you judge who this person is?"
"Will it be a threat to us?"
Fang Xiaocao asked in a deep voice.
Drilling Rat's expression was a little solemn, and he replied: "Your Highness, for the sake of safety, I suggest that we break camp and drive around behind him to see what's going on." "Will appear here. People who grow the land are definitely not simple. If there is only one person, it will be okay. My uncle is not a threat to us at all, but if there are people behind him..."
Speaking of which The gopher stopped talking.
Fang Xiaocao already understood the implication.
The driller's concern is that this person is just a bait. He wants to sneak into their team through the identity of a traveler who got lost in the desert, and then take advantage of them when they are not prepared, and work together with his accomplices to eat him in one fell swoop. These people.
Is it possible?
The answer is probably!
Don’t look at this as a civilized society.
But this part of the desert is sparsely populated.
There are indeed many hidden and shady activities, such as the pawn shop's vault.
There are also some wandering bandits composed of fugitives.
Many of the criminals who commit crimes nearby will run into the desert to live out their lives.
They make a living by robbing tourists, explorers, and scientific expedition teams. They will also go out of the desert collectively to grab some daily necessities. They will also send people out of the desert to buy daily necessities on the local black market.
Because they were hiding in the desert, it was too difficult to catch them. Over time, more and more fugitives became a force.
“Okay, let’s leave right away!”
Fang Xiaocao agreed without hesitation.
At this time Liu Yishou also woke up.
After hearing Fang Xiaocao's words, he immediately started the car, Taotie packed up the tent, and went to drive the camel away.
Fang Xiaocao woke up Xiao Luban and briefly told what happened while packing up the tent.
After listening to Fang Xiaocao's story, Xiao Luban immediately ran to start the car driven by Taotie without saying a word.
In this desert with no village in front of you and no shop behind you, be careful and you won’t make a big mistake.
Anyone who is not careful enough has long since become a withered skeleton under the rolling sea of sand.
Ten minutes later!
After finishing packing, Fang Xiaocao and his group started the car and left the camp.
Under the leadership of Liu Yishou, he gradually deviated from the original route and went around behind the man, wanting to see if the person who suddenly appeared was one of those bandits.
Fifteen minutes later!
"Your Highness, according to the distance and the speed of that person, we should be behind and to the left of him now. We can see him by climbing up the sand dune."
Liu came from the intercom. One hand's voice.
"Copy that, let's go up to the sand dunes and have a look. Don't turn off the car. Leave one person in the car. If there is an emergency, drive away immediately and meet at the second camping spot on the original route."
Fang Xiaocao picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered.
"Received!"
Liu Yishou's answer came from the intercom.
Soon, the car in front stopped under the sand dunes.
The more powerful burrower got out of the car.
"Xiao Luban, Taotie and I got out of the car and went to the sand dunes to check out the situation. You stay in the car and drive away as soon as you discover the situation. If you get separated from Liu Yishou, go and meet up. Wait."
Fang Xiaocao warned Xiao Luban.
"Yes!"
Xiao Luban responded, got out of the car and walked around to the cab. Fang Xiaocao and Taotie each put on their backpacks and got out of the car, walking towards the sand dunes.
At this time, the gopher has climbed halfway.
This sand dune is not high, so it is relatively easy to climb up.
Five minutes later!
Fang Xiaocao climbed up the sand dune.
The gopher and the glutton came up right away.
At this time, the two of them were holding telescopes, looking not far away, and discussing something.
“What’s going on?”
Fang Xiaocao wiped his sweat and asked.
"Look, Your Highness, Princess, it is just as expected by the burrowing mouse, it is really a bandit!"
Taotie handed the binoculars to Fang Xiaocao.
Fang Xiaocao took the telescope and looked in the direction of Taotie's finger.
The man in his sight was still stepping on the yellow sand, stumbling forward with difficulty, like a dying man who would fall to the ground at any time, but Fang Xiaocao's eyes were directed towards this person. When he swept away the man's back, he saw a team of more than a dozen people riding camels hanging far behind the man about one kilometer away.
