A+ A- Turn Off Light

The camel’s low hissing sound had already disappeared, just now was still yellow sand rolled that piece of desert, at this moment returned to calm, seems like the sea dropped into a stone, after turning up a wave, and then become unperturbed.

Calm sand surface seems to have not happened anything, that kind of gloomy dead silence, let cry for a while Erdan also feel the heart palpitations, after stopping the cry, some overwhelmed look ahead.

“Oh topsan …… oh topsan ……”

Just when the two eggs do not know what to do, originally sitting on the camel Nakagawa, suddenly rolled over and rolled off the camel, shouting loudly lying on the ground, his hands forcefully pounded the yellow sand on the ground, his face full of tears, his mouth shouted two eggs do not understand the words.

Although he did not understand Nakagawa’s words, but Nakagawa’s tears and snot look, a person can see that Mr. Nakagawa is very sad, which makes Professor Man and two eggs are very puzzled, could it be that Mr. Nakagawa is also an animal protector? Is Mr. Nakagawa an animal protector, or is he saddened by the death of the camel?

Nakagawa crazy general performance, let two eggs can not care about sadness, look is jaw-dropping, hastily touched the Yan translation, asked: “This …… this, Yan brother, what is the Japanese talking about ah? That is my camel ah!”

This dead camel are their own family, Nakagawa cry what strength ah? Then again, this camel is not his own father, to cry so sad?

“The little …… little Japanese, in …… is shouting for his father …….”

Yan Xiaowei followed Erdan’s name, also shouted small Japan, he was also a little puzzled by Nakagawa’s performance, although he understands Japanese, but it does not mean that he also understands what Nakagawa’s this behavior means?

“Shouting …… Shouting what? Shouting dad? He really shouted my camel dad?”

Erdan felt that his brain is a bit insufficient, this thing is fresh to hear ah! Japanese people like promiscuity right, Japan’s AV industry is also very developed this is also the fact that the two eggs on the computer also under a lot of Japanese men and women action movies for the usual observation and learning.

But two eggs how can not think out, their just a few years old camel, how can give birth to Nakagawa so big a son? Even if the camel has this function, then the time is not right ah!

“Erdan, don’t talk nonsense, Zhongchuan might have met something else sad, Xiaowei, ask, what is going on?”

Prof. Man is a mature and worldly savvy person, looking at Nakagawa like this, he is indeed very sad, but he doesn’t think that a person at the helm of a famous Japanese corporation would be calling out to his father over two dead camels.

Of course, Professor Man also can not guess, Nakagawa is to see the camels were swallowed by the quicksand, remembered his father buried in the desert, and probably also died under the quicksand, is why kneeling on the ground condolences to his father.

Yan interpreter pulled down the weeping Nakagawa, gabbled after the exchange, only then figured out the origin of the matter, Nakagawa is precisely the feeling that this is the burial place of the deceased father, will have such a move.

Years ago in Nakagawa is still young, the old Nakagawa came to China, ready to look for that map of Dunhuang documents, but do not think that fell into a corpse.

After the investigation, the Nakagawa family only thought it was the old Nakagawa’s personal adventure, and they have no way to retrieve the old Nakagawa’s bones from the quicksand.

According to the Japanese feudal superstition, after the death of a person’s bones exist, in order to recall his soul to the country, otherwise it will be difficult to reincarnation, so Nakagawa saw this area of quicksand, so out of sorts.

Of course, when Nakagawa exchanged words with Yan Translator, he never said anything about the Dunhuang documents, but only said that his father disappeared in this place more than thirty years ago.

“What the old man in the town said is true?”

After hearing Yan Xiaowei’s words translated over, he couldn’t help but be shocked, his body’s sweaty hairs shrugged up, he originally thought those things were just a legend, but he didn’t expect it to be real.

Thinking of this desert perhaps there are more than a dozen of the town’s ghosts, which also has a second master he has never met, Erdan can not help but feel a little creepy.

At this time, Nakagawa from his carry-on package, took out three incense candles, lit and inserted in the sand kowtowed, Professor Man and others did not say anything about this, after all, for the children of people, to pay homage to the ancestors this is also should be.

“Mr. Man, Nakagawa asked you, how can we pass through this area of quicksand?”

After about ten minutes or so, Nakagawa stood up and gabbled to the interpreter, the old Nakagawa’s so-called disappearance back then, must have died here, the young Nakagawa naturally wanted to carry on the old guy’s legacy, to bring that batch of precious Dunhuang artifacts back to Japan.

Prof. Man smiled and said, “This is actually good, I brought a backpack of pebbles, throw a piece every other place, if it sinks into the sand, there must be a problem, otherwise it’s fine.”

Eat is this line of work, or else Nakagawa did not need to spend so much money to invite themselves, Professor Man has long been prepared for this, after finishing, walked to his camel, reached out and pulled out, but the color of his face changed dramatically, “What about …… those pebbles?”

“Teacher Manchu, in the morning, the two egg brothers said to save the camel’s physical strength, is not the pebbles to get the camel carrying the supplies on the body?” Yan Xiaowei replied from the sidelines, that heavy bag of stuff was still something that he had carried over there!

“Professor Man, don’t think about any pebbles, whether we can go back alive or not, it all depends on luck.”

On the side, after hearing Prof. Man’s words, Erdan’s face became equally ugly, because he suddenly thought of a very bad thing, all the drinking water and supplies of their group had been left on the second camel that had already been swallowed up by the yellow sand.

They had entered the desert for four days already, and had long been far away from that town of Qiu Jia Wo, even if they didn’t sympathize with the camel’s stamina, it would take two days at the earliest to get out of the desert.

In the middle of the desert, no food might be tolerable, but without water, it was categorically impossible to survive, after Erdan got up and checked the four camels, his face became more and more ugly.

Now that several people only had four skin bags of water, and all of them had drunk half of it, Erdan and Prof. Man whispered and discussed, and opened his mouth and said to Yan Translator, “Now return immediately and go back to the place where we camped yesterday.”

Yan Xiaowei’s face was also a little white after hearing Erdan’s words, and suddenly asked in a trembling voice, “Er …… Erdan brother, are we unable to walk out of this desert?”

Yan translation before entering the desert, is only a school student, just now by that yellow sand devouring camel tragedy stimulated, and now face the situation of water and food cut off, the heart tolerance is almost to the top, has been about to collapse.

“Brother Yan, it’s fine, as long as there is water, I can definitely take everyone out, and maybe we can even run into other tour groups, we don’t need to worry.”

Seeing Yan Xiaowei’s panicked appearance, Erdan calmed down instead, he had been hanging out in the desert since he was twelve or thirteen years old following the adults’ asses, and he knew more about this desert than any of the people present.

Although there is no food, but two eggs know, along the way there are a few places to find water, hungry for two days is also able to get out of the desert, so although the situation is not very good, but not to the time of the end of the mountain.

As for Mangzi and the others, Erdan didn’t know if they were still following, so he didn’t dare to take the risk of staying here, and only returned to the water source as soon as possible to feel at ease.

Yan Xiaowei calmed down after hearing Erdan’s words, and busily pulled up Zhongchuan, who was still kneeling on the ground, and communicated with him.

Although the desert has a beautiful view like a mirage, but it is also a killing machine at every step, what happened just now has taught him a vivid lesson, Yan Xiaowei student no longer want to stay here for one more moment.

“Tell Mr. Erdan, as long as we can get out of this desert, I will definitely compensate him for all his losses.”

After Nakagawa heard Yan Xiaowei’s words, he immediately nodded his head and agreed, the richer this person is, the more he cherishes his life, Nakagawa still has a huge family fortune in Japan, he doesn’t want to turn into a lonely ghost in the desert to keep company with his old father.

As for what Dunhuang artifacts, in this moment becomes not so important, life is gone, want those things have no use, Mr. Nakagawa is definitely a pragmatist.

After Erdan heard Yan Xiaowei’s words translated over, his eyes earned a glance and said, “Mr. Nakagawa, my two camels, but they are worth 50,000 to 60,000 dollars!”

After Yan Xiaowei exchanged words with Nakagawa, he said, “No problem, Nakagawa will compensate you, can we go now?”

“Success, let’s go! I will definitely bring everyone out.”

Erdan smiled at the words, the pain of losing the camel immediately disappeared, in Dunhuang this place, an adult camel is actually only about 10,000 yuan, 50,000 to 60,000 is enough for him to organize a camel team.

A group of people remounted on the camel, to the road, due to the lack of food and water, two eggs have been urging the camel to go faster, but it is much faster than when they came.

“Camel caravan, there is a camel caravan in front.”

About an hour or so later, Erdan, who was walking at the front, suddenly shouted loudly, his voice full of surprise.

The people sitting on the camels, who were drowsy from the scorching sun, were revitalized by the words, and after raising their heads, they really found that a line of more than a dozen camels was walking towards them head-on.

“Brother Mangzi, Da Mao and Er Mao are gone.”

In the end, Erdan was still young, and after meeting Mangzi who was walking in front of him, he was already speaking slightly with a crying voice.

“What happened? We encountered quicksand? Is everyone alright?”

Mangzi hurriedly jumped down from his camel, first checking the number of people on Erdan’s side, and seeing that there were still four people, he couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.
