Chapter 242 Sandstorm
The caravan stepped into the vast desert, and the dazzling sunlight fell on the ground, emitting a layer of golden brilliance.
It was early spring, and it was the slanting wind and steep season, but in this desert, it was completely different.
The steaming heat wave can be seen with the naked eye, as if the world is drying furnace, the hot sand refracts the scorching light, making the entire caravan look depressed and rushing on the road silently.
Xia Shu rode on the camel's back, pulled out the plug of the kettle, and took a big mouthful, then he felt his lips moisturized.
At this moment, the sky is at the middle of the sky, like the fire. Even though the physical fitness is stronger than that of ordinary people, they are still sweating profusely and are very hot.
"There is an oasis not far ahead, we can go there to rest." The captain with a dark skin and wrinkled face like an old farmer in the field shouted excitedly, turning his head to shout to the caravans: "Everyone cheer me up and move forward at full speed!"
The caravan immediately responded and accelerated its pace.
In the oasis, the summer trees picked a tree-shaded place to rest. Others were guarding the truck or searching for water deep in the oasis. Of course, it would be even better if they could find fruits and vegetables.
After resting in the oasis for a night, the caravan continued to set off on the road while taking advantage of the coolness of the morning.
The camel steps on the soft yellow sand and elegantly, leaving a string of hoof prints full of meaning in the desert.
The caravan has only 35 people in total, and there are not many cargoes, only five trucks. However, the caravan is not a ninja after all, and even though the team is not long, it cannot quickly rush.
Three more days later, the caravan arrived at the depths of the Wind Kingdom.
On this day, there was no scorching sun in the sky, and the sky was slightly hazy. The wind blew in the desert, rolling up sand and dust to block the sight.
The summer tree rode on the camel's back and looked towards the southwest. She saw the yellow sand full of flowers and the scene of dust flying in her eyes.
But he knew that a hundred miles away from the sand and dust was the place where the Sand Hidden Village was.
I hope I won't encounter unexpected enemies like when I was in the Land of Earth. As the sandstorm roared, he narrowed his eyes and thought so in his heart.
In the afternoon, the sand and dust suddenly became bigger, and the sand and gravel were flying all over the sky crackled like raindrops, as if suddenly it was raining.
Walking through the desert for many years, the experienced guard captain looked at the sky and frowned, worried that a sandstorm would come, so he turned his head and shouted loudly.
"Start up! For your life, this may turn into a sandstorm!"
However, when you get busy in a hurry, there is a high probability that you will make mistakes in a busy manner, and this is the case with the caravan.
When a worker was pushing a cart, he accidentally fell to the ground. It was nothing but falling. It didn't hurt or itchy when he fell on the soft desert. However, his arm was accidentally run over by the wheel and turned into a fracture.
"I've crushed the person, I've crushed the person!" A scream rang out, and someone immediately noticed the situation and shouted loudly.
The captain of the guard came over quickly when he heard the sound, shouting loudly in front of him, "Don't stop! Don't stop! Keep rushing!"
Then he had time to check here.
Looking at the worker whose arms were twisted obviously, he frowned, and waved impatiently: "Drop him in the car..."
Before he could finish his words, the worker had been thrown into the truck.
The captain of the guard was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the shadow thrown on the ground.
Xia Shu nodded slightly in her eyes, and then drove the camel forward.
With the whistling sand and dust, the caravan was becoming more and more difficult, and the wind and sand were still everywhere in sight, forming a circling shape.
"Damn it! It's too late!" The captain of the guards tilted slightly against the strong wind, squinted his eyes and shouted, "Don't leave! We all gathered together, gathered next to the truck, untie the ropes of the animals, and don't let them take the truck away in a panic!"
In the midst of the turmoil, the captain of the guard didn't care too much. After saying this, he led the caravan owner to a stop truck and got under the truck.
The strong wind circled with sand and dust, and the momentum was as shocked as the roar of heaven and earth, and finally turned into a tornado. Only the wind and sand roared in the sky and earth, filling the ears.
I don’t know how long it has passed, everything has subsided, the dust between heaven and earth has fallen, the haze has dissipated, and the sky has been blue for thousands of miles, and the hot breath follows.
The sand pile arched, and a camel's head broke out from the ground, shook his head in an unusually humane manner, and threw the gravel on his head off. Then he seemed to remember something again, and lowered his head to arch it next to it.
Xia Shu wanted to drill out, but was pressed again. He wanted to drill out, but was pressed again. Then he seized the opportunity and was delayed by a second before he finally broke through the ground.
"It's you..." The bang made the words in his mouth break.
It turned out that a head suddenly came out of his side. Luo Tuo was a little frightened, and subconsciously turned his head, and then he came to Xia Shu with a face.
Taking a breath of cold air, Xia Shu rubbed her cheeks, pushed the camel's big face helplessly, then broke free from the bondage of the sand and came out.
While patting the sand on his body, he scanned the caravan. The sandstorm seemed to have not lasted for long, so the impact was not great. The dust scraped only buried the people who fell to the ground, but had little impact on the caravan.
But the caravan's foot strength was not as calm as the camels that were applied by the Yaxi Fras, so they lost several heads, and I don't know if they could find them back.
However, when encountering such natural disasters, the caravan cannot set off immediately, so there is still time to search.
Under the command of the captain of the guard, the caravan counted the number of people and the losses, and then sent people to find the lost camels.
Natsuki was not out of the matter. He helped the injured worker deal with the injury. Although he had not learned medical ninjutsu, the simple method was a compulsory course for root ninjas.
"Thank you for your help." The timid expression and flashing eyes on the face of the young worker betrayed his heart.
"Don't worry, as long as you rest for a while, you won't leave any disease roots." Xia Shu could understand what the other party had not said at a glance, so she chuckled directly.
"Thank you, thank you!" The other party hurriedly thanked, and Xia Shu had to wave his hand.
After resting for a long time, I walked for a while, and then night fell, and the air suddenly turned from heat to cold.
The glorious sea of stars in the night sky is the brilliant starry sky that can only be seen in the Wind Kingdom.
Xia Shu roasted the jerky softer, mixed it with big cakes to make supper, and then continued to eat military food pills.
Speaking of which, there were not a few soldiers and food pills left on his body, and he could not continue to eat them on the road ahead, which made him a little worried.
