Miss Bobo's words made my heart tremble, and I couldn't help but tighten the string in my heart.
"My parents-in-law and I came here to play and accidentally got lost. I don't know if it's convenient for this elder brother to take us. As long as we can leave this desert, it will be fine."
I followed the rhetoric that Miss Bobo taught me earlier and said to the bearded man in front of me.
The bearded brother nodded, waved to Miss Bobo and I very enthusiastically and said, "Hello, come on! Follow us on the road!"
After that, he winked at a young man riding a camel behind him and said: "Come on, Sanchi, get down first and let these two tourists ride on. I think they must be tired from walking in this desert." Already."
He was a young man who was only seventeen or eighteen years old. He looked immature. He quickly turned over from the camel and jumped down. He bowed politely to Miss Bobo and me and said, "You two, please come on." !”
I looked carefully at the bearded man in front of me and the young man named Sanchi, and found that the two looked very similar. They were most likely a father and son.
"Forget it, let's just walk! How can we sit on your camel?" I smiled and said to the bearded man and his son.
The bearded man shook his head at me and said, "What the hell, you better go ahead! You must be tired from walking."
Miss Bobo and I were a little hesitant. Seeing this, the people behind us started to persuade us one by one.
"Go up! Our caravan takes care of the weak and those who really need help."
A young man in his mid-twenties smiled at me and after saying that, he hugged his girlfriend next to him.
The man's girlfriend also smiled and persuaded: "Go up! From now on, we are already a team. This trip was very pleasant. I thought we would die here. Unexpectedly, we met Basang The uncle, his son, and his caravan saved us."
"Yes! I was also saved by Basang and his son."
Another man wearing a blue sportswear also followed suit.
It seems that there are indeed several groups here. The leader is the bearded Mr. Basang, the young man named Sanchi is his son, and the rest are some followers.
"Forget it, let's go up!" Miss Bobo winked at me and motioned for me to get on the camel.
Having said that, I had no choice but to ride on the camel, and then dragged Miss Bobo up. The two of them sat on a camel, and slowly followed Basan's caravan forward. go.
I noticed that in our team, there were two people dressed very strangely. One was a man wearing a yellow monk's robe, and the other was an old man wearing a suit. These two people did not say a word from the beginning to the end. .
They were pedestrians on foot, not riding camels.
Along the way, I looked at the people in the caravan intentionally or unintentionally, trying to get some clues from their expressions. However, the more I looked, the more doubts became in my heart.
The first thing I thought of was Basang, the bearded one.
I was thinking that this guy must be a ghost, otherwise, how could he be so enthusiastic that he would drive his own son off the camel and invite us on the camel. If you show courtesy for nothing, you must have a purpose!
After all, Miss Bobo and I were neither injured nor sick or fainted. This seems a bit unscientific! However, it cannot be ruled out that people are really so enthusiastic.
After thinking for a while, I thought that the couple should be ghosts.
Because I have heard that in the desert, after some people died, because there were no seducers to seduce their souls, they didn’t even know they were dead. They thought they were alive. Whenever a caravan passed by,
He will follow them. But in fact, they are dead people. Therefore, they will bring all kinds of bad luck to the caravan.
After thinking about it, I thought that the Taoist priest and the old man in a suit were ghosts, because they didn't speak from the beginning to the end. This is very consistent with the style of ghosts.
After walking for a while, a bright moon rose in the sky. The cold moon shone in the desert, making it look particularly cold.
I couldn't help but feel a sense of surprise in my heart.
Yes, I can identify ghosts by identifying a person's shadow. Thinking of this, I carefully looked at the shadows on the ground. First, I glanced at the bearded man and his son who were walking at the front.
When my eyes fell on the ground where they were walking, I couldn't help but be startled. Because I found that there were no shadows under them at all.
Sure enough, this is a ghost father and son.
Just when I was thinking this, I inadvertently looked down at myself. I immediately overturned my previous conclusion.
No, even Miss Bobo and I have no shadow, not even those camels.
I looked carefully at every person and every camel in the crowd, and without exception I found that there was no shadow under them at all.
It's strange, why there are no shadows here. It seems that this method won't work.
"Okay. Let's rest here for a while! I think everyone is tired from walking!"
After walking for about an hour, I suddenly heard the bearded man shouting to everyone, and everyone stopped.
"Everyone rest here, eat something to fill your stomach first, and don't go too far. There are wild wolves and snakes in the desert. If you encounter danger, you will be in trouble. Everyone must be careful, no matter what happens
, don’t be alone, let’s set off again in half an hour.”
The person who spoke was the bearded son, Sanchi. This young man looked immature, but when he spoke, he was very sophisticated. It was obvious that he was a very experienced businessman.
Everyone sat down in a circle. The bearded man took out pieces of large cakes from his bag and brought them to Miss Bobo and me. He said with enthusiasm: "Come on, let's have something to eat! I want to
You must be hungry."
"Thank you! I brought something." Miss Bobo smiled and nodded to the bearded man.
"Have a piece!" The bearded man smiled and motioned for Miss Bobo to have a piece. Bobo had no choice but to take a piece, but he was not in a hurry to eat it.
Soon the bearded man walked up to me again, handed a piece of pie into my hand, and said very politely: "Come on, have a piece!"
I took it decisively. I don’t know why, but I felt that this father and son didn’t look like ghosts. I’ve seen cunning ghosts, but I’ve never seen such enthusiastic and honest ghosts. I’d rather
Want to believe they are human beings.
"Come on, let's all have some!"
The bearded man came to the others with the bread and shared it one by one.
I picked up the big cake in my hand and was about to bite it, but Miss Bobo gently pulled my sleeve and said, "Keep it for now!"
"All right!"
I had no choice but to put the cake away. I knew that Miss Bobo must be afraid that the father and son were ghosts, so she refused to eat his food.
"No matter whose food it is here, it's best not to accept it easily, and don't rush to eat it if you accept it. It may kill someone." Miss Bobo warned me seriously.
I nodded, immediately took out a piece of bread from my bag, and ate it in big mouthfuls. I had to be more cautious. After all, I was dealing with a group of ghosts. If I were not careful, I would lose my life.
Miss Bobo and I did not eat the cakes that Big Beard gave us, but put them in our bags. Some people in the crowd ate them with big mouthfuls.
I noticed that the Taoist priest didn't eat the bearded cake either.
What was even more surprising was that the Taoist priest, after seeing the bearded man leaving, immediately took out a small bronze mirror from his bag and secretly looked at the people next to him.
This scene happened to be what I saw.
I couldn't help but feel a burst of surprise in my heart, and whispered to Miss Bobo: "Look over there, someone is looking after ghosts."
Miss Bobo turned her head and saw the mirror in the Taoist priest's hand. She nodded and said, "Yeah! It's good to know. Stop talking."
"All right!"
I stopped my mouth and continued to nibble on the bread in my hand.
"Come, I have some water here. You can drink some first!" Miss Bobo took out a bottle from her bag and handed it to her hand.
I took the bottle without politeness and poured it into my mouth, and then gave it back to Miss Bobo.
Miss Bobo also took a sip, and after a while she poured it into my arms. Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but be frightened, wondering what the hell this girl was trying to do. Was she trying to break my innocence again?
Be a Yang body!
"What are you afraid of? I won't eat you. Really!" Miss Bobo smiled mischievously at me, then returned to seriousness, leaned close to my ear, and whispered: "Be affectionate,
Don't make people suspicious. Come, put your arms around me."
"Okay!" I had no choice but to put my hand on this girl's waist.
At this time, a woman in red clothes quietly left the crowd.
I saw the woman in red walking towards the back of a hill. She didn't tell anyone when she left.
Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but feel a little suspicious, so I asked Miss Bobo in a low voice: "Miss Bobo, why do you think that woman sneaked there alone and what she was doing?"
Miss Bobo stretched her neck and looked forward, then pushed me gently with her hand and replied angrily: "What's there to see? Isn't it just beautiful women peeing? Really. If you like it, then you can
Just follow me!"
"this……"
I was a little embarrassed when I heard this. I felt a little confused.
"Ah! Help!"
Suddenly I heard the woman from before shouting loudly.
I turned around and saw that she jumped up suddenly, and then she fell down and rolled on the ground. She quickly rolled down a hillside.
"Quick! Go over and take a look." The bearded man shouted loudly, and then quickly ran towards the previous woman.
"Come on, let's go over and take a look!" I said to Miss Bobo.
"Put your luggage on your back." Miss Bobo replied, then she put on her backpack and ran with me towards the place where the previous woman's accident happened.
The hillside was a bit steep, so Miss Bobo and I held hands and walked down cautiously. The two middle-aged men with the big beards also followed.
The bearded man was walking at the front, and the others had already reached the edge of the hillside and were about to go down.
But as soon as he took two steps, he saw the bearded man's eyes widening in panic. He took out a knife from his waist, and then shouted to everyone: "Quick, everyone, move back!"
While he was talking, he suddenly saw the bearded man and squatted down suddenly, then reached down to explore. Then he raised the knife in his hand and stabbed it with a "whoosh" sound. I saw something jump on the ground.
came down, and then heard the bearded man shouting loudly: "Come here! Sanchi bring the medicine box."
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Sanchi picked up a medicine box and ran quickly in the direction of the bearded man.
