Chapter 442: Dig up a dried corpse
'Brother Monkey' looks. The black fog in the canyon is gone, do you know that we often come...... Giving face? Xiaodouzi held a military binocular, lay on a hill, and poked his elbow next to him.
"Isn't that right? Search around and go home. The monkey leaned his back against the rock, wiping the laser gun carefully. His elder brother died on the battlefield of the Ink Pool Star and has been living a more depressed life recently, but death is a common thing in this era, and he still has to survive.
"Well, that's right, take a walk, and we'll go back. It's really like Uncle Horseface said, it's a beautiful trip. Little Beans didn't see much of value, and even though it was noon and the sun was abundant, there was still a layer of gloom in the small canyon area.
"Damn, little rabbit cub, call me Uncle Horse-faced behind your back." There was a thunder explosion on the ground, and among the five-person search and rescue team, the oldest old horse, wearing a heavy jet mecha, slowly fell from the air onto the hill.
Xiaodouzi stuck out her tongue and said, "My mother! I almost forgot that Uncle Ma had a pair of ears that were downwind, and I could hear it when I spoke so softly. Little Beans didn't dare, never again. ”
"Phew, I don't have time to fart with you, has there been any progress in reconnaissance?" The old horse picked up the far-infrared telescope from his chest and asked questions while looking at the canyon range.
"What progress can be made? There was no grass in the canyon, and there was always a black gas coiling, and judging from some images transmitted by satellites, it did not look like it was dangerous. But Sister Yun Niang said that the more it seems that there is no danger, the more we can't be careless. ”
"Yun Niang has a point."
Lao Ma nodded, although his skills were not as high as those of the monkey, but Zige was there, and the other four respected him very much, so he faintly became the team leader.
"Let's wait outside the canyon! Looking at the strange black fog in the situation, it is drifting away, anyway, it is not a bad day, if you want me to rest for one night, and act again tomorrow, it is safer. The monkey aimed at the laser gun crosshair, he was a very withdrawn person, but he spent a lot of time with the other four in the search group, so he didn't keep silent when it was time to speak.
"Well, even though no dangerous data has been detected, I always feel strange here, so it's better for the five of us to be careful."
Lao Ma agrees with the monkey and says that he has been in Tianya Star for decades, and what he is seeking is nothing more than a stable word. In recent days, there has been a lot of news coming back from the front line that the three Bernard tribes are really going to compete with human civilization. At such a dangerous moment, you have to be careful when you encounter anything, and if you don't find any trace of the enemy, it doesn't mean that there are no enemies.
Xiaodouzi "snorted" and jumped off the hill, he couldn't be idle. Now that the old horse and the monkey have reached an agreement, they want to spend the night here, which means that they have time to do private work. I remember that the satellite scanned the nearby area well and saw a nest of a bird with eggs inside! This thing is brought back, and some merchants buy it, and it can be made into Tianyaxing's local specialty food.
The power of souvenirs is great in the mind of Xiaodouzi. Two thousand Federation Coins will definitely not be able to run away, and maybe they can be exchanged for a second-hand laser sword in good condition.
Yun Niang and Master guarded the marching car, this is an out-and-out classic car, otherwise it would not break down halfway. Unexpectedly, after a two-day delay, the black fog that permeated the area of the small canyon had already dissipated on its own.
In the evening, the five of them could only enjoy a simple marching meal, which was really not as good as the food in the Eco-City.
In the afternoon, Xiaodouzi took out the eggs very smoothly, and the harvest was quite good, a nest actually took out six, Yun Niang very casually put one of the bird eggs on the electronic stove to bake, naturally not as good as going back to the Eco-City for processing, can only be regarded as a tooth sacrifice in the action.
The night was very quiet, very quiet, so quiet that it made people chill from the bottom of their hearts. There is one more thing that is very evil...... After the five of them fell asleep in shifts, they all woke up in a nightmare in which they were either being chased or their hands were covered in blood.
What's going on here? No one can say clearly. The five of them can only understand that there is something strange here.
Xiaodouzi is only a second-level elite soldier, even if he wakes up from a nightmare, the old horse has been crawling and rolling for half a lifetime, he is already a fifth-level elite soldier, and the strength of the monkey is so strong, he is also a fifth-level elite soldier, not to mention iron-heartedness, he will not have nightmares, he sweats profusely, and even has an unrestrained sense of fear in his heart. If it is more serious, I am afraid that it will affect future operations.
When the next day dawned and the sun shone on everything, the chill in my heart was slightly alleviated.
The good news is that the remaining haze in the canyon is gone. However, after this night, all five people did not dare to be careless.
Lao Ma checked the image sent by the satellite for the last time, and ordered: "Fully armed, turn on the flight energy of the marching vehicle, we will directly cross the obstacle and enter the canyon to investigate." In case of unforeseen circumstances, let's withdraw immediately. If there is an enemy, the five of us will flee separately and one of us will survive......"
"Uncle Ma, don't be so pessimistic, okay?" Xiao Douzi muttered, he has not recovered from last night's nightmare, although as an interstellar elf, his psychological quality must be excellent, but the nightmare is immersive, it seems to be really quite four, very terrifying.
In fact, these five people were eroded by a little dark energy, so they naturally had a special reaction. Fortunately, they arrived late, if the classic car had not broken down and arrived here two days earlier, it would not have been as simple as a nightmare, and it was very likely that they would have killed each other in their sleep.
"Poof, poof, poof!"
With a few unpleasant noises, tongues of fire erupted from the bottom and tail of the marching vehicle. Slowly, the classic car took off and staggered towards the canyon.
Seeing that the task is about to be completed, he naturally doesn't care about the extra energy consumed by the marching vehicle flying. Moreover, the five people in the car can respond in time when they encounter danger, and they rely on the hidden means in the car, and the probability of escape is also very high.
"Boom, boom......"
Bulky marching vehicles break the silence in the canyon and make a lot of noise. Still lying on the roof of the car, Little Bean curled up in a groove in his armor, carefully observing the ground.
"Have you noticed that in addition to the loss of life in this canyon, there is also a certain degree of desertification?" Yun Niang stared at the image and suddenly spoke.
"Well, there are a lot of differences compared to the original satellite observation footage. Here, and here, there is a lot of desertification. "The master is nested in the cockpit, don't look at his nickname is very elegant, in fact, he is a miscellaneous person in this group.
"Listening to the two of you say this, it does mean something, as if it has been weathered for tens of thousands of years." Lao Ma is the most experienced elite soldier in the group, but in the face of this situation, he can't think of a reason.
"Hey, this form of desertification seems to be expanding in a radiant form." Yun Niang is very good at finding problems, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to stitch it together on the picture, and soon locked a direction, and said firmly: "That's right, this is here, according to the severity of desertification, the most severe place of desertification is the east of the canyon." ”
"Let's take a look, quick." The old horse is very excited, and finally finds the target, as long as there is a crack in the ground, or an alien object falls, their group can go back to their lives. If there is danger, you can call more professional people to come over, to put it bluntly, the five of them are just pathfinders, come and fight the front station.
There was not much time, and the marching vehicles had already reached the east side of the canyon. The desertification here is very serious, the ground is covered with fine sand, and the little bean has the sharpest eyes, and he can only hear him exclaim: "Look, there is something down there, it looks like a hand." ”
"Don't be impulsive, wait until the marching vehicle falls to the ground, and then carefully scan it to see the situation...... "The old horse is worthy of his old qualifications and knows what to do just now, and young people are easy to get frizzy when they do things, so they reminded him.
Xiaodouzi honestly lay on the roof of the car and didn't dare to move. The main thing was the nightmare of last night, which impressed him, and he subconsciously felt a sense of fear of this place, even if he saw an arm showing the sand, he would not act rashly.
"Rumble, boom Jiang Ji......"
The tongue of fire at the bottom of the marching vehicle was getting weaker and weaker, and the car landed right next to the sand pile. Yun Niang raised her hand, and a piece of silver light was blessed, and it was blessed to the four of them, but when she blessed herself, it was a little thinner.
"Let's go out and see who owns this arm." The old horse tightened his gear, jumped from the cart to the sand first, and then cautiously approached.
Not all five of them stepped forward, but Monkey and Little Beans were on guard. No one can guarantee that this is a trap, and even if it has been scanned many times, they dare not be careless.
"Yun Niang, the military advisor is behind, I'll clean up the fine sand." The old horse was very responsible, crawling on the ground, approaching the front, carefully picking up the sand, and immediately relaxed.
"Hahaha! It turned out to be a scavenger with mold, look at this guy. It must have been a geological disaster in the canyon and I couldn't escape in time......" Xiaodouzi stood more than ten meters away and looked at it...... Make an assertion.
"I really didn't expect that there are also waste pickers here, and it is not easy for him to survive so far away from the Eco-City." The old horse stood up, clapped his hands, and let out a sigh of relief.
"You see, this corpse is still a little shiny, and most of it has been dead for less than a few days." Yun Niang approached and poked at the face of the dried corpse dug up by the old horse, her face couldn't help but change, and she shouted: "No, this corpse still has temperature, scan it quickly." ”
The master raised his right hand, and the life badge sowed a trace of green light, and when he read the feedback data, he said with certainty: "There is indeed a body temperature, and there is no death." Do you want to save this person? If the person is a waste picker, there is no value at all.
And maybe get us in trouble. Remember last year? The gangs in the southern district of the Dalmu Eco-City lost ground, and thousands of people were driven out and became waste pickers. ”
The five hesitated, you look at me, I look at you, and then at the miserable corpses lying in the sand. Only then did I find out that the cadre's leg was still broken and he was a cripple.
