Soon, Fatty Wang and the other two returned.
Before he even arrived, the sound of complaints could already be heard.
"Oh my god, the wind is too strong. If it weren't for the three of us pulling each other, we would have blown into the sky.”
The three of them were carrying backpacks and some dead branches in their hands.
It was impossible to find dry wood in the desert. They should be glad that there were dead shrubs to burn.
The moment the fire lit up, everyone's slightly sunken hearts slightly improved.
Xue Li quickly retracted her gaze. She didn't want anyone to find out that she was secretly looking at Xu Yuan.
When a person felt guilty, they would always feel that others were staring at them.
At this moment, Xue Li Yang was in such a state. She had nowhere to place her hands, so she could only take the initiative to find a topic to talk about."Uncle Andrew, I just found some animal footprints in the corner. They are wolf footprints.”
Upon hearing this, the faces of Heart Leaf and the others, who had been happily distributing the food, froze.
It was definitely not a good thing to live in the same house as a wolf.
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. Just now, I saw six or seven yellow goats by the wall outside.”Fatty Wang also said that he saw an animal. The difference was that he saw a sheep.
An Liman didn't mind, but he was used to it.
"This place is specially prepared for the animals in the desert. Not only sheep, but there might also be wolves and leopards hidden in the dark. Now, there was a sandstorm in the sky, and the animals on the ground were all frightened. When the sandstorm passed, you would find wolves and sheep hiding in a house.”
"At that time, if you are a wolf, you should show your fangs. If you are a yellow sheep, you should show your horns.”
"If that's the case, won't the wolves and leopards discover us after the sandstorm passes?”
Although Sa Dipeng liked to study aliens, he was actually the most timid one in the team. When he heard Shirley Yang say that he had found wolf footprints, he was so scared that his face turned pale.
" That's right," Hu Ba said." We probably escaped the storm, but we probably can't escape the wild beasts."”
"Didn't you think that the desert wasn't dangerous? The black sandstorm during the day and the wild beasts at night, wasn't it especially exciting?”Xu Yuan unceremoniously added.
"Comrade Xiao Xu, they are still young and timid. Don't scare them.”Hao Aiguo didn't pick on Xu Yuan anymore, but his emotional intelligence made Xu Yuan anxious.
If he didn't know that he was this high, Xu Yuan would have slapped his head full of army ants.
Who wasn't a young man?
Ye Yixin was similarly frightened. He held a thin 'twig' in his hand and grumbled softly,""You guys are still trying to scare people at a time like this.”
She didn't notice anything wrong with the branch she was playing with.
However, Hao Aiguo, who was sitting next to her, saw it and asked,""Xiaoxiao…Xiao Ye, what are you holding in your hand?”
Ye Yixin lowered his head when he heard that. His expression changed drastically. He threw down the things in his hands and jumped up from the ground.
"Bonehead, here…So many bones." Ye Yixin shrieked and had already shrunk beside Xu Yuan.
What happened during the day had planted a seed in everyone's hearts.
The seeds were usually not discovered, but once they encountered danger, they would subconsciously think that Xu Yuan was the safest.
Ye Yixin's shriek immediately made Xu Yuan lose the mood to continue lying down and he sat up.
Hao Aiguo was a little angry and blamed him,""We are archaeologists. Why would we be afraid of bones?”
"I'm sorry, Teacher Hao. I didn't expect there to be human bones here. I wasn't mentally prepared enough.”Ye Yixin grabbed onto Xu Yuan's arm, clearly frightened.
Normally, she wouldn't be afraid.
The main reason was that he had just finished talking about the wolf and the leopard. The moment he saw the human bones, he would immediately associate them with wild beasts, so he was naturally afraid.
The others all came to where Xiao Ye's fingers were. Hao Aiguo pushed away the sand on the surface first and picked up the two bones to examine them.
"It really is human bones."
At this moment, Huba exclaimed,""Professor Hao, these bones are a little strange.”
"What's so strange about that?" Hao Aiguo didn't understand.
He had seen a lot of bones, but the one in front of him was neat and tidy. The leg bones were not longer than others, and the joints of the hand bones were not more than ordinary people.
Knowing that Hao Aiguo had gone astray, Hu Ba explained,""Due to environmental factors, the flesh and bones of the dead in the desert will not rot. They are usually dried corpses that have been naturally dried.”
"But there isn't even a bit of flesh on this skeleton.”
"Maybe the wolves ate it all.”
An Liman had been sitting in his seat since the beginning. When he heard everyone's discussion, he decided to interrupt.
What he wanted to hear the most was that a group of people was afraid and wanted to leave the desert.
After all, it was rare for him to venture deep into the Black Desert, and it was full of unknown risks.
"It's very possible." An Liman's explanation was undoubtedly the most acceptable to everyone. Hu Bayi even made some mental deductions.
To put it simply, this person might have also come here to avoid the storm, but was later attacked by animals and even eaten. He also emphasized that Xu Yuan had mentioned the matter of rotating sentry posts.
Putting everything else aside, Hu Bayi was still qualified to be the leader.
However, Xu Yuan still had to slap him in the face.
"No!"
