Stocking up in space: surviving in a world of crisis

"Of course, there are snow-capped mountains in several northern provinces, but the difference is more or less, big or small. The 24 peaks we are going to pass this time were called ghost mountains by the ancients thousands of years ago. The reason why they are called ghost mountains is because of the 24 peaks. There is a big red bird in the peak, which can make a shrill cry, and it is said that anyone who hears the call of the red bird will surely die."

Luo Yang clicked his tongue twice, "This Ning Province is really a blockbuster. I understand it. The less existential an area is, the more dangerous and mysterious it is. Ning Province not only has the Devil City, but also Demon Mountains, Ghost Mountains, ghosts and ghosts. They're all alive."

"How long will it take to get out of the 24th peak?" Ye Fu was most concerned about this question.

"There are eighteen bends on the mountain road over there, it may take four or five hours."

"This small desert is not small. It may take three or four hours to go out. The weather is not bad today. Let's rush out of the poplar forest in one go."

After Ye Fu finished speaking, he put down the bowl, walked up to a poplar tree in front of him, raised his foot and kicked on the tree, with a sound of "creak", the trunk snapped, Ye Fu picked up a section of the trunk to see how dry it was. Depending on the degree of weathering, these trees may have died during the high temperature in the third year of the last days.

Ye Fu kicked a few more trees. The trunks were very brittle, and the branches would break if they were pinched lightly or the wind blew.

"After entering Ning Province, except for some weeds at the junction, the further you go inside, the more you can't see living plants. If you don't find any, it hasn't rained much these two days."

"The environment is too harsh, and I don't know if there are any survivors in Ning Province."

"There may still be survivors in the south, and the north and center are no longer suitable for human survival."

After packing up the tent and backpacks, the four of them set off again. The sandy soil in the poplar forest was very soft, and it was difficult for the horse to run. As soon as he entered the poplar forest, Ye Fu saw several dead sea buckthorn trees. A gust of wind blew the yellow sand towards everyone. Sweeping towards him, Ye Fu quickly pulled the reins tightly to make the horse turn around. After 10 minutes, the strong wind gradually subsided, the horse paced restlessly in place, and Ye Fu shook off the sand from his body.

"Bah, bah, bah... the mouth is full of sand, the wind blows in a circle, and the horse and I were almost overturned." Luo Yang showed a bitter expression, complaining about the evil wind in the poplar forest while spitting sand.

"Scared me to death, I thought a sandstorm was coming." As soon as Han Feng said this, Luo Yang quickly stopped him from speaking.

"Don't be crowed, you can't talk nonsense in the wild, it's easy to be effective."

Han Feng looked at Luo Yang incredulously, "Brother Luo, you are so superstitious."

Luo Yang raised his right index finger and shook it twice, "No, the end of science is metaphysics. You don't have to believe in something, but it doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

"When the wind blew over just now, it was indeed like a sandstorm. This is a desert, and it is normal for a sandstorm to appear. It seems that we have to speed up."

Ye Fu patted the sand off his body, took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Rong.

"Look over there." Jiang Rong took the tissue, and suddenly pointed to the right. Ye Fu took a closer look, only to find a black thing protruding from the sand. At that moment, Jiang Rong stopped her.

"It's a corpse."

Ye Fu also saw that something was wrong, and the two quickly dismounted and walked to the corpse. At this moment, Luo Yang and Han Feng also rode to chase after him.

"what happened?"

Ye Fu took out his gloves and put them on, "I found a corpse, I plan to dig it out and have a look."

The two quickly got off their horses and came to help, but after the first body was dug out, everyone realized that the matter was not that simple.

"Why is it a mummy? Just buried in the sand, can it become a mummy without any protective measures?" Luo Yang dragged the corpse aside and examined it carefully.

"There are still corpses in the bunker." Ye Fu said, and dug twice at the left side of the bunker, and saw a pair of black and withered hands exposed, with a discolored hand rope tied around his wrist.

Half an hour later, all eight corpses were exhumed, including three males and five females. Ye Fu guessed that their ages were no more than 20 years old by examining their teeth.

There are several backpacks next to them. Luo Yang and Han Feng checked the contents. In addition to the ID card and student ID card, there are also clothes, mobile phones, and wallets...

"These children are all students of Ning Province University. Could it be that they were killed and thrown their bodies here on the way to escape?" Han Feng's speculation is not unreasonable, because Ye Fu picked up a handful of rusty fruits beside him. and the clothes on the eight mummies were all damaged. Ye Fu opened their clothes to check and found two knife wounds on the abdomen of a female corpse. Although it had become a mummified corpse, the corpse was still elastic and the wounds on her body were clearly visible. visible.

There were also many stab wounds on the other corpses, killing eight people. The murderer was either very strong or a gang.

"This paring knife is curled up."

Ye Fu took the fruit knife, and frowned, "The knife wounds on the corpses are not considered fatal, but there are many knife wounds. I guess these dead people lost too much blood and bled to death."

"So they turned into mummies because the blood in their bodies dried up?"

Ye Fu nodded, "It's possible, depending on how dry the body is, the death time may be more than ten years. Dig another hole and bury the body."

Luo Yang rubbed his chin, "The murderer didn't take their luggage. If it was a robbery, all the clothes on these corpses should have been taken away. Could it be that the murderer committed the crime by an acquaintance, and the murderer only wanted to vent his anger, not for material?"

"Why vent your anger?" Han Feng was puzzled.

Luo Yang shrugged, "I'm not a policeman, how I knew the murderer's intentions, I'm just guessing. Well, let's dig a hole and let them go back to the ground."

After digging the pit, the four put the corpses and their luggage into the pit. As for the fruit knife that killed them, Ye Fu destroyed it.

After the grave was finished, Ye Fu sprinkled some heat-resistant plant seeds around, hoping that after a rain, hope would grow here.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go." Ye Fu pulled Jiang Rong back.

Han Feng just took two steps, and shouted while taking off his shoes, "Wait for me, my shoes are full of sand, I'll pour them out."

"The gust of wind just now blew the sand into my clothes, and the back of my neck seemed to be covered with fine sand."

Luo Yang tugged at his clothes, trying to shake the sand out of the collar, the sand under his feet was too soft, Ye Fu stepped on it, and a large part of his calf sank directly, Jiang Rong lifted her up like a carrot.

"Yo yo Chek Nao, you are the wind and I am the sand, lingering and wandering to the end of the world..." Ye Fu suddenly rapped, and Jiang Rong looked at her blankly.

"Are you singing?"

Ye Fu was a little embarrassed, "Are you surprised by my wonderful singing voice?"

Jiang Rong shook his head solemnly, "That's not true."
