Chapter 893 Search
But I waited until about eleven o'clock in the evening.

Cheng Fang and others haven't come back yet.

Xiang Liu and the other two looked around again with searchlights inside and outside.

After he came back, he told us that he still couldn't find it.

I asked: "Not even any footprints?"

Xiang Liuren replied: "When Boss Cheng and others first left, there must have been footprints, but when we first went to find them, half a day had passed. The wind and sand here were very strong, and the footprints had long been submerged. .”

Xia Xi asked: "How did you find it?"

Xiang Liuren replied: "The ruins of the ancient Qiuci Kingdom are only a few square kilometers, not very big. We have searched almost all over the place, and we haven't found any traces. It's like they disappeared out of thin air."

Xia Xi and I couldn't sit still.

They were right.

The entire ruins are less than half the size of a small county town, and most of the buildings are buried in the sand. It is actually very easy to find, but searching twice has no effect. Something strange must have happened.

We told Amina to stay where she was, and asked the two Xiangliu guys to protect Amina and Master Huiyun. This is related to whether everyone can get out of the desert.

After speaking.

We turned on the searchlight, took their shotguns, and started looking in the direction where Cheng Fang and others left.

First, I looked for a circle of remaining low-rise buildings.

No shadows were found.

I said: "They have already searched twice on the ground, so there is no need to search at all. There are only two possibilities now. Cheng Fang and the others either fell into a sand pit, or they found something important and left the ruins. "

Xia Xi replied: "According to my understanding of the Bench King, his character is very cautious. If he says he is going to pick up leaks and find treasures, he must be searching for treasures. He will never take the risk of leaving the ruins. Even if he leaves, he will Come back to say hello and let Amina lead the way, our focus should be underground."

I nodded: "Pay attention to the sand pit under your feet."

The two men held shotgun poles and began to poke at the sand like a blind walker, hoping to find something like a sand trap or a separation board.

But it lasted until two o'clock in the morning.

No response at all.

We had to go back and drink some water first.

Amina didn't sleep at all and was waiting for us anxiously.

We reassured her that no matter what, we would ensure her own safety first.

Take a break.

We continue to search.

This time I searched specifically along the edge of the ruins.

The night was hazy.

The desert evening wind whistled.

This is a corner abandoned by the world!
Sometimes the searchlight in our hands will illuminate some odd-shaped sand piles or abandoned buildings, standing or lying like devils, which often scares us.

Fortunately, we never believe in ghosts and gods in this world.

Otherwise, I really wouldn’t dare to look for it.

After more than an hour.

We arrived at the northwest corner of the ruins.

The sand here is uneven and there are many abandoned buildings.

We focused on finding it.

suddenly!

A shadow flashed before our eyes, fleeting!
I thought I was dazzled, so I turned around and looked at Xia Xi.

This guy swallowed his saliva and asked: "Did there be a Piao just now?" I replied: "Piao!"

Xia Xi said: "It's not Ah Piao, why is it so fast? Don't tell me there are animals here! We have been here for several days, and we haven't found any animals in this ruins, not even any plants!"

I said, "It could be the soul of the sheep we ate during the day."

Xia Xi replied: "Fuck you uncle! Strictly speaking, animals belong to the side world. Under normal circumstances, they do not enter the six realms of reincarnation at all. Don't think I don't understand the saying that there is no soul! People do evil things, but they will be there in the next life. He may be reincarnated as a human beast and be eaten by others.”

I said: "Then you will definitely become a croaking duck in your next life."

Xia Xi said, "I'm discussing business with you! Can you be more serious?"

I replied: "Seriously, we may all be dazzled, keep looking, don't talk about these useless things!"

The two of us continued to search in these sand piles in the northwest corner.

"Bang, bang!"

Xia Xi and I fired the shotguns at the same time and hit a squirming pile of sand on the left.

A white shadow suddenly shot out from the sand, jumped to a high place, and stared at us fiercely.

This is the shadow just now!
What a little animal it is!

It is all white, with soft fur. It is about forty to fifty centimeters long, but its ears are about twenty centimeters long. It has a pair of big eyes and looks cute.

I suddenly remembered that Amina had mentioned before that there are three auspicious treasures in the desert: the white camel that can predict risks, the desert lake monkey that can find oases, and the big-eared white fox that can find treasures.

"Little white fox?!"

we shouted in unison.

The little white fox was frightened, jumped forward, and ran quickly to a pile of sand more than 20 meters away, suddenly got in, and disappeared completely.

Xia Xi and I looked at each other.

"Go and see!"

The two of them walked cautiously towards the big sand pile.

Unexpectedly, there was a windfall!

Next to the big pile of sand, there was a large, rotten wooden board lying aside, covered with a thin layer of sand.

Something is wrong!
This kind of wooden board in the desert may be well preserved if it is buried underground for a long time, but if it is exposed to the outside, it will be weathered quickly, and the sand on its surface cannot be so thin.

It can only prove that this thing must have been dragged out of the sand not long ago!

We picked up the board, and sure enough we found a few holes on the edge. It had obviously been pried open, because there were obvious tool pry marks.

More importantly.

Under the wooden cover, there were two cigarette butts.

Ashima!
This is a cigarette smoked by one of Cheng Fang's subordinates!

They've been here before!
We immediately started looking around.

Find this.

Sure enough, an abnormality was found.

There is a hole under the sand pile. The sand next to it is not compacted, but is completely loose. When I hit it with the head of a shotgun, the sand fell down, revealing a hole.

The little white fox should have disappeared through this opening just now.

Xia Xi and I didn't hesitate at all.

Immediately went back and forth.

Go down and have a look.

We were both stunned.
