The Queen of Jingjue asked me to go rob a tomb

Chapter 140 Desert Army Ant

The four of Lu Zihan put on goggles, covered their nose, nose and ears with scarves, and began to clean up the sand around the cave.

"Fatty, go and move some stones over there and surround the hole."

"Old Hu, find some more boards or branches that can cover you!"

"Poker bottle, why are those camels getting up? Go over and have a look, don't let them run away, and point them out on the road later!"

Several people split up, and Lu Zihan continued to clean up the sand outside the cave.

Outside the sand wall, ghosts and wolves howled.

Endless black sandstorms hit here again and again.

But every time it was blocked by a tall sand wall.

In my memory, the black sandstorm will stop the next day, but it's really not sure right now.

I can only silently pray that the sand wall will hold up.

Soon the fat man brought some big stones, and Lao Hu also found some rotten wood in the old ruins of the ancient city.

The three of them worked together, and after a while, a simple portal was built.

Hu Bayi said, "Although it's a bit crude, at least I don't have to worry about being buried alive tonight."

The fat man nodded, "This damn weather is really frightening!"

After a while, Zhang Qiling also came back.

But look at what he is holding in his hand.

"Brother, what is it?"

"It was found behind the sand wall, and the camel was frightened when it saw this!"

After speaking, Zhang Qiling threw the thing in front of several people.

Holy shit! !
bone?

Is this fucking human bone or animal bone? !

Lu Zihan glanced at it and said lightly, "Human bones!"

The fat man scratched his head, "How come there are dead people in this place!"

Hu Bayi said, "What's so strange about this? Dozens or hundreds of people die every year in a desert like this. Either they got lost while traveling, or they were some foreign explorers. In short, they are all fools who think they can conquer nature. .”

Zhang Qiling said lightly, "These bones are very strange!"

strange?
What's so strange?

The fat man looked at it for a long time, but couldn't see anything.

Lu Zihan thought for a while and said, "It's really strange. The corpses that really died in the desert seldom decompose, and most of them were dried naturally to become mummies, but there is no flesh on this bone."

Hu Ba nodded, that is indeed the case.

The mummy in the desert is famous.

The fat man said, "Could it be that there are beasts here, and the corpses were eaten by wild beasts?"

Hu Ba nodded, so far it should be like this.

"There are not only sandstorms and camels in the desert, but also many wild wolves and sand leopards. Just like the city in front of us, we may not be the only ones taking refuge. When I was looking for boards just now, I heard something behind those broken houses and broken walls. movement."

"I didn't think much about it at the time, but now it seems that there must be many wild wolves, gazelles, and sand leopards hidden in it..."

Hu Bayi suddenly remembered a sentence he often heard the locals say when he was training in the desert.

"When the windy season comes, there is a big sandstorm in the sky, and the animals on the ground are terrified, and they all hide together, and no one cares about each other, but after the sandstorm passes, you will find that the wolf and gazelle are hiding. In a room."

"At that time, if it is a wolf, it should show its teeth, and if it is a gazelle, it should stick out its horns."

Hearing that there were still many wild beasts hiding in these dilapidated houses, the fat man couldn't help becoming nervous.

Fortunately, they have guns in their hands, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

Lu Zihan smiled and shook his head, "Fatty, guns can defeat wolves, but there are some things that guns can't solve."

The fat man was taken aback, "Old Lu, did you find something?"

Then Lu Zihan pointed at the bones and said, "Look at these bones carefully!"

The fat man is puzzled, isn't it just a pile of rotten bones, can you still see a flower?
But after hearing what Lu Zihan said, Hu Bayi picked up a white bone and looked it carefully under the flashlight.

suddenly,

His pupils shrank, as if he had discovered something.

Then the whole face became a little horrified.

"What's the matter, old Hu?"

Hu Bayi pointed at a piece of bone tremblingly, and saw that it was densely covered with many small openings, as if bitten by some insects...

The fat man scratched his head, "Old Hu, what is this?"

Hu Bayi ignored the fat man, but looked at Lu Zihan and asked, "Old Lu, is this... desert army ants??"

Lu Zihan nodded, "That's right!"

The fat man looked confused, "Ants? What's so scary about ants!"

Hu Bayi glared at him and said, "What do you know? This desert army ant is not an ordinary ant. Of course, it is indeed a type of ant biologically, but they have strong jaws and a strong bite." It is a thousand times that of ordinary ants."

"What?"

"A thousand times???"

The fat man's expression changed instantly.

If this damn bites down, the flesh and blood will be torn apart in an instant!
Lu Zihan nodded and said, "This kind of army ants is also called legion ants, that's because they appear in groups, especially when preying, they will form different attack groups to cooperate and fight, just like professional soldiers with powerful armaments. "

"Moreover, an explorer once took a photo of a million legion ants eating a crocodile in an instant in the Amazon Basin."

"Fuck!!"

"Ants eat crocodiles, it's true!"

"Can't you see it yourself?"

Lu Zihan pointed to those bones.

"Although I haven't seen any army ants with my own eyes, but if you look carefully, there is no flesh and skin left on this white bone, and it can leave such dense bite marks on human bones, which shows how amazing the bite force of these insects is. .”

For a moment, the fat man's scalp went numb.

"So that means there are desert army ants around here?"

"nearby?"

Lu Zihan smiled, "Maybe it's right under our feet!"

Holy shit! !
"Old Lu, don't scare me!"

Not to mention the fat man, even Hu Bayi heard that there were hundreds of millions of desert army ants under his feet, and at this moment his hairs exploded.

At this time Zhang Qiling said lightly, "Don't worry, they won't mess around until the sandstorm is over!"

Lu Zihan nodded and said, "What Boyouping said is right, now is the time when the black sandstorm is raging, not only us, but also the army ants have to hide."

"So as long as we leave immediately when the black sandstorm stops, we'll be fine."

Hearing this, the fat man breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, the storm is getting bigger, let's go in!"

"Ok!"

Just as they were about to get up, they heard Hu Bayi say, "Wait a minute!"

"What's the matter, old Hu?"

"Look up there!"

above?

The three looked up, only to see yellow sand all over the sky.

Nothing!
Hu Bayi frowned and murmured, "Strange, really strange!"

"What's the matter, old Hu, what did you see?" Fatty asked.

Hu Bayi didn't speak, but took out the compass from his body.
