At this time, Duomaiti also screamed, and a coyote he was fighting with ignored his attack and rushed towards him madly to bite him. Unable to avoid it, he was bitten on the forearm.
Duomaiti immediately stabbed the coyote in the back with a knife. However, because the knife was relatively short, the wound was not deep, but it made the coyote go crazy and shook its head wildly. It immediately tore off its clothes and a piece of meat, causing pain for a moment.
He screamed in agony.
However, after the coyote took a bite, he refused to give up. He still quickly surrounded him, hoping to seize the opportunity again and take a bite.
At the same time, the young man was bitten and torn apart by two hyenas, causing serious injuries to his arms and legs.
At this moment, a crystal jade pendant fell from the young man's pocket!
Under the sunlight, the warm light is reflected on the sand.
The hyena that was fighting Domat no longer surrounded him and attacked him, but jumped up, threw himself down near the jade pendant, took the jade pendant in his mouth, and made a whining sound.
After receiving this whining sound, the other coyotes also opened their mouths, and then turned around and retreated.
When Duomaiti saw this scene, he paused as if he wanted to attack. He looked at the jade pendant held in the coyote's mouth, and then at the young man who was bitten and covered in blood. Suddenly, he felt a little nervous.
What came to mind.
The knife in his hand fell down, and then his body fell limply to the ground.
"Bah! Bah!..."
There was a burst of gunfire, and the coyotes were hit by bullets. The four coyotes immediately wanted to run quickly, but more bullets were fired, and the four coyotes immediately became filled with hatred.
As the coyote was shot, the shining jade pendant fell out of the coyote's mouth and landed not far from the young man.
The young man looked at the coyote that was shot, roared and screamed, then stumbled over and put the jade pendant into his pocket. Then, he turned over and lay down on the ground, looking at the dazzling
The sunshine gradually lost consciousness.
At this time, a group of about ten people ran down the sand dunes with guns in hand. They were shocked to see the miserable scene of the three people.
"Hurry and save people!"
"Company commander, this man is dead."
"Company Commander, this man can still be saved!"
…
After a period of busy work, Domat and the young man were rescued, but the captain of the scientific expedition team died from his injuries on the spot.
The people who came were from the garrison nearby, and they happened to be on patrol. After they saw the coyote, they followed and wanted to eliminate it.
They were very surprised to encounter coyotes here, because coyotes would not run too far away from the oasis, otherwise they would die in the desert.
You must know that there have been no traces of coyotes on their patrol route for a long time. Now that they see them, they naturally want to follow them and eliminate them.
But they didn't know where these coyotes came from. However, because they were too far away from the coyotes and could only be seen through binoculars, they rode camels and chased them for a long time before finally catching up.
superior.
Unfortunately, when they took action, they could only save two people.
They put Domat and the injured young man on the camels and returned to their base.
Duomaiti was only bitten on his forearm, so he spent a long time in the medical center where he was stationed before waking up. As for the young man, because of his serious injuries, he spent three days and three nights in the medical center.
Thanks to the rescue, he was out of critical condition and woke up.
When they woke up, they were investigated separately.
Fortunately, the scientific expedition team was acting with authorization, so after questioning, naturally nothing happened.
Of course, the fact that the scientific expedition team was completely wiped out in the desert and the sighting of the ancient city of Xiye also attracted questions from higher-ups.
However, although the only two people left gave a very clear account, they did not have any supporting evidence. When asked about the longitude and latitude of the ancient city of Xiye, they did not know anything. This made the investigators think that both of them were lying.
However, the two were interrogated separately, so after several days of questioning, this matter could only be put aside temporarily.
As for the ruins of Xiye Ancient City, there is no longitude and latitude. Looking for them in the desert is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Therefore, after recording all the retellings of the two people, we can only wait until later to investigate on our own.
Moreover, the captain of the scientific expedition team was also brought back. Although there were only a few body parts left, the record book was still found on his body, which indirectly proved that there was nothing wrong with what the two said.
Therefore, the two of them were free and could recover in the medical center before returning to their respective places.
Of course, since the severity of the injuries varies, it is not a big problem if Duomaiti only had a piece of flesh torn off his arm. At most, after the injury is healed, there may be some minor problems with the muscles in the forearm, but nothing else will happen.
However, the young man was severely injured, and his arms and legs were bitten to varying degrees, and there were even many bite wounds on his body and face. Therefore, one of the young man's legs and one arm was eventually amputated, and one of his eyes was removed.
A piece of flesh was removed from the cheek. Fortunately, it did not affect eating and talking.
Ever since the young man woke up and learned about his injuries, he has been a little depressed. Except when he was being investigated, he didn't speak much at other times. But he was holding the jade pendant in his hand, holding it tightly.
.
After both of them had almost recovered and more than half a month had passed, Duomaiti stood in front of the young man's hospital bed holding his injured arm, looking at the young man very seriously.
At this moment, the young man was finally able to sit half-sitting, leaning on the bedside. Watching Domati's arrival, he also showed a rare smile.
"Domaiti, thank you for coming to see me." As companions who escaped from death, they were definitely very lucky to be able to see each other in the rest of their lives, so he was very happy.
But Duomaiti seemed not to hear his thanks and still looked at him seriously.
This made the young man feel a little embarrassed, and gradually became awkward. Finally, after a few minutes of silence, the young man was also a little annoyed, and asked in a low voice: "Duomaiti, are you here to see my joke? If so, are you
Saw it."
As he said that, he lifted the quilt, revealing his severed arms and legs, and said loudly: "Look, if you want to see enough, then take a good look!"
The voice also became hoarse and trembling.
But when the young man was going crazy, Domat said slowly: "I'm not here to see your joke."
"Then what are you here to see? You stand here without saying a word, and you don't answer my questions. You are not looking at my joke, but what are you looking at!?" the young man asked.
"I came here just to tell you something." After saying that, he looked at the jade pendant still held in the young man's hand, smiled sadly, and said, "What I want to tell you is that the inspection
The death of the team leader was caused by you. My injuries were also caused by you. And the way you are now is also caused by yourself."
"What? What are you talking about? Damn you, what the hell are you talking about!" When the young man heard what Domat said, he immediately went crazy. How could he possibly injure three people and also...
To make yourself look like this?
If you buy too much, it's just nonsense.
"You don't believe it?" Duomaiti asked calmly.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I absolutely don't believe what you say. There's no way I can do this. Is there something wrong with your head? We were hurt like this by coyotes." The young man sprayed wildly.
"You attracted the coyote," Domat said.
"You're talking nonsense! I attracted the coyote, so why would I get hurt?" If the young man hadn't been injured, he would have stood up and carried a big bag for Duomai. This is simply nonsense.
"Then tell me where you got the jade in your hand." Duomaiti asked.
"You!" When the young man heard him talking about the jade pendant, he immediately tightened his grip. Then he looked at Duomaiti angrily and said, "You care where I got this jade pendant. Do you care?"
The young man was still angry, but there was also a trace of worry in his tone.
Because, he got this jade pendant from Xiye Ancient City.
That night, after he heard the woman's scream, he ran over immediately. But on the way there, he saw a corner, and there seemed to be a flash of light. He immediately stepped forward to pick it up, and found that it was a beautiful piece.
Jade pendant.
He was originally a member of the expedition team. Although he was young, he had done a lot of research on jade. With the help of light, he could see that this jade pendant seemed to be very unusual.
But because of the screams and shouts, he didn't pay close attention, he just put it in his pocket and ran towards the place where the sound came from again.
It was also because he was delayed for a while after picking up the jade pendant and observing it. When he ran over, he saw that the team members were already running towards him and shouted loudly that it was dangerous.
Naturally, he turned around and ran away. In this way, he defeated most people and escaped from Xiye Ancient City.
On the way, he had been secretly taking out the jade pendant to observe, and he was very happy. The jade pendant was absolutely worth a fortune, especially the material of the jade pendant, which was mutton-fat white jade. The carved patterns on the jade pendant, etc., all showed its origin.
Extraordinary.
Although it is not certain which era it is from, what is certain is that this jade pendant definitely has its origin. If you want to date the jade pendant, you have to wait until you go back and consult with relevant personnel.
Of course, as a member of the expedition team, he was carrying the captain and Domati behind his back, because pocketing the antiquities he encountered without permission was a violation of discipline and would be punished.
Therefore, even if you are bitten by a coyote, you will grab the jade pendant in your hand regardless. You must not throw away the jade pendant that you have worked so hard to obtain.
Even when he was questioned after returning, he did not tell anything about the jade pendant.
Fortunately, he was not asked about the jade pendant in the end. He thought that the incident had just passed. Unexpectedly, today, Duomaiti would mention it and frame him as his fault.
What the hell, is he trying to get the jade pendant?
No, absolutely not. Anyone who wants to get a jade pendant must die!
