"Hu ~"
The wind howled and yellow sand filled the sky.
After carrying Professor Chen on his back, he made a wish and went back the way he came. However, the sandstorm was too strong. In just a few minutes, the traces he left behind were already undetectable.
In this dark and indistinguishable sandstorm, if one lost their direction, they would really die.
Just as Wish was about to lose track of the traces left behind, he saw the figures of the archeological team and immediately quickened his pace.
"Brother, Professor Chen, are you guys okay?”
At this moment, everyone who was thinking of a way also noticed the movement behind them. After seeing the wish, they hurriedly rushed over.
"How's Mr. Carson?"
Shirley Yang asked anxiously when she saw the unconscious Professor Chen. Her beautiful face was filled with worry.
"I'm fine. I just fainted.”
Wishing put Professor Chen down and handed him over to Hao Aiguo and Chu Jian. He glanced at the approaching black sandstorm and asked Hu Bayi,""Old Hu, why did you stop?”
"Little brother, the camel can't run anymore. That old man An Liman also said that there's no other way.”
Before Hu Bayi could say anything, Wang Kaixuan said angrily.
"Sigh ~"
When Wishing heard this, he frowned and glanced at An Liman. He saw that the old man was kneeling, as if praying for Hu Da's survival. He sighed speechlessly and began to scan his surroundings.
An Liman, this old fellow, was very afraid of death. If he really knew how to survive, he would have run away long ago. Why would he sit there and wait to be buried alive by the sand?
"Where are you guys looking!"
Wishing, who was scanning the surroundings, pointed in a direction and shouted.
"That's…"
Everyone looked in the direction of the wish and vaguely saw a dilapidated city wall not far away.
West Night Ancient City Ruins.
The moment they saw the city wall, this name appeared in everyone's minds. Their faces immediately lit up because they were saved.
"Stop looking at the scenery. Everyone, hurry up and leave.”
After seeing the city wall, An Liman shouted in his heart,"Great Blessing Hu!" Then, he called out to everyone and began to pull the camels.
"Quick, quick…"
After An Liman's reminder, everyone started to move. They pulled the camels that had recovered some strength and ran towards the ruins of West Night Ancient City.
As the black sandstorm continued to approach, they didn't need to make a wish to remind them to run.
As soon as they crossed the broken city wall and entered the ruins of West Night Ancient City, everyone felt that the sandstorm had calmed down a little. The sand hitting their faces did not hurt as much.
"Follow me!"
As soon as he entered the ruins of West Night Ancient City, he began to search for the stone house in the original movie. After finding it, he immediately called out to everyone and walked over first.
Hu Bayi and An Liman didn't follow him. Instead, they were settling down the camels.
After entering the stone house through the hole formed by the broken wall, everyone began to size up the situation inside the stone house. They saw that there were several holes in the stone house. They did not know if it could withstand the sandstorm, but it seemed that this was the only place that could avoid the sandstorm.
While everyone was sizing up the stone house, Wishing's gaze was fixed on the ground at the rightmost corner of the stone house because he remembered that there were many desert army ants underground.
"Phew…you scared me to death. Our lives are finally saved.”
After sizing up the stone house and seeing that there was no danger, everyone found a place to sit down and rest. Fatty sat down on the sand and drank a mouthful of water before speaking with lingering fear.
At this moment, Hu Bayi and An Liman, who was carrying two bags of things, also walked in.
"Brother, when will the sandstorm outside stop?”
Professor Chen, who had recovered some of his energy, asked An Liman, who walked in.
"Who knows?" An Liman's tone was a little resentful." Aren't you all capable? Go ask the heavens.”
"Eh? How can you say that, old man?" Fatty stood up immediately and grabbed An Liman's collar." If I hadn't stopped you just now, you would have run away long ago. Why would you care about our lives?"”
"Let go."
An Liman asked Fatty to let go.
"Fatty, let go."
Wishing walked over." Now is not the time to talk about this. Before the sandstorm completely covers the outside, let's go out and pick up some firewood and move the supplies in.”
"Fatty, little brother is right. Let's hurry up and move the things. Chu Jian, Sa Dipeng, you guys come and help.”
Hu Bayi said as he held Wang Kaixuan's arm.
"Oh, okay."
Chu Jian and Sa Dipeng nodded in agreement.
"Humph!"
Fatty let go of An Liman's collar and covered his mouth and nose. He put on his goggles, made a wish, and walked toward the exit with Hu Bayi.
"Brother Hu, Miss Yang seems to have sand in her eyes.”
Ye Yixin shouted just as the three of them were about to leave the stone house.
"Old Hu, go help Miss Yang. We'll go out first.”
Wishing smiled and said to Hu Bayi, then led Fatty and the other two out of the stone house.
Old Hu wasn't young anymore, and it was time for him to consider his marriage. Shirley Yang was a good girl, not to mention that both of them had a son after the Muye incident.
Not long after, the few of them finished their work.
The dry sand and solid fuel ignited the fire, illuminating the dark stone house.
Everyone sat around the fire and ate their rations, drinking water from time to time.
"Old Hu, I think we need to keep watch at night.”
Wishing said as he ate," There are so many holes in this stone house. If no one keeps watch, we might be buried by the sand in our sleep.”
"Little brother, great minds think alike." Hu Bayi laughed.”
"That's good." Wishing nodded. Actually, according to the original scene, there was no need to keep watch at night. However, this was the real world now, and it was inevitable that there would be some accidents. What if the desert army ants suddenly appeared underground?
"Actually, I think so too.”Wang Kaixuan suddenly said seriously.
"Alright, Fatty, you'll be the first to keep watch.”
Wishing and Hu Bayi looked over and exchanged glances. Wishing said, and Hu Bayi nodded in agreement.
"Alright."
Wang Kaixuan immediately agreed.
"Ah!"
Just as everyone was eating, Ye Yixin suddenly screamed and almost dropped the food in her hand.
Wishing looked over. It turned out that Ye Yixin, the unlucky girl, had accidentally discovered the skeleton.
Then, in order to prevent everyone from reacting, Hu Bayi prepared to dig up the bones and bury them, but was stopped by a wish. He suggested that they bury them tomorrow.
If they buried White Bones, they might dig out the giant pupil stone statue. If the Desert Army Ants came out early, they would have nowhere to run.
Everyone then began to rest. Fatty was the first to keep watch, followed by Hu Bayi. However, Hu Bayi was quite lucky when he was keeping watch, so he chatted with Shirley Yang about life.
