Everyone was waiting for White to continue to unravel the fog, but White hesitated to speak. He looked around and didn't know what he was looking at, "Don't expect anyone here to save you!" Yelena scolded.

"I don't expect anyone to save me. Ever since I opened the brown paper bag Stechkin gave me, I have never expected anyone to save me. Not even God can save me!"

"What's the secret in the bag?" Makarov asked.

"It's a cassette and a roll of film!" White was still looking around.

"What are tapes and films?" Yelena asked.

"Yes...it's an amazing plan!" White said this, and suddenly jumped up from the ground. He didn't know where the power came from, and knocked Han Jiang over. Just as Yelena was about to raise his gun, White kicked again, just Kicking Yelena's wrist, Yelena's gun flew out, and White got rid of Makarov again and ran to the water's edge.

All this happened in just ten seconds. Before Tang Feng could react, White had already rushed into the water. He ran desperately to the depths of Haizi, splashing huge water.

"White, if you run again, I'll shoot!" Makarov pointed his gun at the thick fog on the water surface, but at this moment, the thick white fog was all in front of him, and White's figure could not be seen clearly at all. Hearing the sound of water, he judged that White should not have run far.

Han Jiang got up from the ground, raised his gun angrily and wanted to shoot, but was stopped by Makarov, "Don't cause unnecessary trouble."

Han Jiang understood what Makarov meant, so he had to put down his gun, "It's all your fault for running to this ghostly place!" Yelena blamed Han Jiang.

"How did I know it would happen like this!" Han Jiang argued.

"What shall we do now?" Yelena asked Makarov.

Makarov's eyes narrowed into a line, but he couldn't penetrate the thick fog in front of him no matter what!Tang Feng, Han Jiang and Yelena couldn't wait any longer. Just as they were about to rush into the water, Makarov suddenly shouted: "Don't go into the water!"

Everyone was horrified, Tang Feng and Yelena hurriedly retreated to the shore, and Han Jiang, who was rushing ahead, stopped in the water. Everyone didn't understand what Makarov meant?Looking back at Makarov, Makarov made a gesture, which meant "Listen!" Everyone held their breath, and the surroundings were silent, and everything seemed to have returned to calm, without the sound of water splashed by White running , what about the White people?
Thick white mist enveloped the water surface and surrounded everyone, "If White is smart, he should stay in the water right now!" Tang Feng whispered.

"Maybe he's near us." Yelena suddenly turned around, but there was still thick fog around her. Time passed by, and Haizi was terribly quiet, and everyone could clearly hear their own heartbeat...Suddenly , Not far from them, there was a piercing scream!

Makarov was the first to react, and shouted at Han Jiang: "Han, come up quickly, there is something in the water!"

Han Jiang hurriedly withdrew to the shore, and the scream lasted for about half a minute, and then the water surface returned to calm, and it was as terrifyingly quiet as before!
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. The scream just now was obviously from White. Something must have happened to White. What would be in the water?Or some other threat?
Tang Feng felt that the pores all over his body were opened. This terrifying feeling made his heart beat wildly. His pupils dilated rapidly, and he stared straight at the water surface covered in thick fog, as if there was something terrible there. Something will rush out of the fog, below the surface of the water, and hit them...

This stalemate lasted for 10 minutes. Tang Feng didn't know who they were fighting with?enemy?Beast?Or an unknown threat?The fog still had no intention of dissipating. Finally, there was a change on the surface of the water, and something was washed to the shore by the seemingly calm current. It was a person. Tang Feng immediately recognized that it was White. At this time, White had already It became a horrible corpse.

Han Jiang and Yelena bravely dragged White's body up from the water, and then turned over. The two ace agents who had been enemies for a long time were startled by White's terrifying face, and White's face was gone. A piece of intact skin, the whole face was twisted together because of extreme pain and fear. What terrible thing White encountered just now?Tang Feng, Han Jiang, Yelena, and Liang Yuan were all thinking about the same question, but Makarov squatted beside White to investigate carefully, without saying a word. After a long time, Makarov stood up and pretended to be calm and said: : "White was entangled to death by a powerful creature."

"Entangled to death?" Tang Feng immediately thought of something, "You mean a snake?"

Makarov nodded, "It's not an ordinary snake, but a giant python!"

"A giant python in the desert?!" Tang Feng gasped.

"Yes, there is almost no intact bone on White's body, all of them are broken! There are traces of snakes swallowing on his face." Makarov quickly made a judgment.

Everyone was horrified that there would be a giant python in this sea, "What's even more frightening is that there is more than one giant python inside. White was attacked to death in a short period of time. This was definitely not done by one snake, but by several snakes." !"

"Are there a lot of snakes? Then...then these snakes will also crawl to the shore!" Liang Yuan panicked.

Everyone looked around in horror, for fear that the giant python would jump into the sand, but they didn't see the giant python, but found that something was brought to the shore by the current.

They were all white bones. Tang Feng carefully picked up these bones, including human, cow, horse, and sheep. However, Tang Feng suddenly discovered that among these bones, there were some bones that Tang Feng had never seen before. After a while, he picked up these bones for everyone to identify, but no one could tell what kind of creature they were.

Makarov picked up a strange skull and said slowly: "I have never seen this skull before. It seems to be similar in size to a bear, but it's not a bear. It looks like some kind of primate."

"You mean monkey?" Tang Feng asked back.

"Bigger than the average monkey!"

"Orangutan!" Tang Feng said again.

Makarov was noncommittal, his skull eyes staring at the thing narrowed into a line, Tang Feng didn't know what Makarov saw, and muttered to himself: "But why are there orangutans here? Even in ancient times, wouldn’t it be possible?”

Unexpectedly, Han Jiang said: "Just say it's human!"

"Human?" Everyone sweated profusely.

Makarov put down the skull and shook his head, "No, it's definitely not human, but it's very close to a primate."

"But...but the remaining bones don't look like primates at all!" Yelena suddenly cried out from the side.

Yelena used the remaining bones to roughly form a skeleton on the white sand. Although it was not complete, it was not difficult to see that this skeleton could never belong to a high-intelligence primate!

"Is this the skeleton of another animal?" Liang Yuan murmured.

"No...it's that thing." Makarov said, staring at the skeleton on the sand.

"Why are you so sure?" Han Jiang was puzzled.

"Because this skeleton is obviously very large, it looks like it should be some kind of beast, but it is not a tiger, nor a leopard, nor a wolf. It does not match the large animals that may appear here. It should be very large in size. The height of the skeleton is close to the height of an adult black bear standing upright."

"So tall? That's a bear!" Liang Yuan murmured.

Makarov shook his head again, "I've seen the skeleton of a bear many times. This thing is different from a bear. Its forelimbs are obviously much more developed than those of a bear."

"More developed than a bear? A bear can slap a person to death. This thing is stronger than a bear? Then its power..." Tang Feng didn't dare to continue.

"Its power will be even more astonishing than a bear!" Makarov continued Tang Feng's words.

"So you deduce that this is the skeleton of an unknown creature?" Han Jiang asked Makarov.

Makarov was noncommittal, and continued: "Also, the skeleton height of this thing is close to the height of an adult black bear, but it doesn't look as big as a bear. Its forelimbs are thick and powerful, and its hind limbs are also well developed, so I guess this When the thing runs, it will be much faster than the bear."

"Oh my god! What the hell is this? It's so powerful?!" Han Jiang said in shock.

"An unknown creature." Makarov finally expressed his judgment, "This thing has the IQ of primates, the strength of bears, and the speed of tigers and leopards, and it is likely to have the ferocity and brutality of jackals. "

"So scary?" Everyone gasped.

"Damn it, this place is home to giant pythons, unknown monsters, and this damned Haizi who is always shrouded in thick fog. I can't take it anymore!" Han Jiang, who had always been calm, yelled.

"Han, you don't have to worry too much. Fortunately, this beast no longer exists. It probably lived in ancient times." Makarov comforted Han Jiang.

"Living in ancient times..." Han Jiang was stunned when he heard this. When his eyes met Tang Feng's, Tang Feng suddenly yelled, "Do you still remember those people in Qianhu Town? Mummy?"

"You mean the horrible mummies we found at the end?" Han Jiang also thought of those mummies.

"Yes! All of them had hideous faces, their bodies suffered terrible attacks, and their internal organs and intestines flowed out. At that time, we judged that those sergeants were attacked by a powerful beast!"

"You mean the beast that attacked Qianhu Town was the skeleton we see right now?!" Liang Yuan showed a terrified expression.

Tang Feng nodded, "I think that's the case, and I judge that it is very likely that this beast is controlled by the party members of Hanhai Micheng."

"The party members of Hanhai Micheng can tame such a powerful beast?!" Makarov was dubious.

"That's right. The Mongolian soldiers who were attacked by this kind of beast in Qianhu Town are all Mongolian soldiers. Obviously, this kind of beast is controlled by the party members and should be part of their armed forces." Tang Feng said to Makarov and Makarov, who had not seen the mummified corpses. Yelena explained.

Everyone hurriedly buried the terrible skeleton and White's hideous corpse with white sand, and the thick fog on the water still didn't seem to dissipate.Liang Yuan looked at the surface of the water covered by thick fog, and felt palpitations, "Fortunately, we brought enough water when we set out, otherwise we would have to drink this terrible water."

"Do you suspect that there is something wrong with the water in this Haizi?" Tang Feng asked back.

"I see Xuan, the water looks clear on the surface, but who knows if it's poisonous? Why don't so many humans, animals, and such terrifying beasts all die in the water?" Liang Yuan said.

"Maybe the creature that killed them is the same one that killed White!" Han Jiang said suddenly.

"You mean all pythons?" Yelena asked in surprise.

"I think the water quality is pure, so it doesn't look like there is a problem, so the problem can only be something in the water." Han Jiang explained.

"I disagree with your judgment. The appearance of these bones in the water does not mean that they were killed by something in the water, nor does it mean that there is a problem with the water quality. If this Haizi is the legendary Sea of ​​Rebirth, then in the legend , The sea of ​​past lives can be large or small, and it is fickle. When the water surface is large, it may take away all the things that were originally on the Gobi Desert, so it is normal for some things to appear in the water!" Tang Feng thought of Uncle Wei Ming again The legend about the sea of ​​rebirth that I told him.

Han Jiang listened to Tang Feng's deduction, but retorted: "First of all, it is not certain whether this is the legendary sea of ​​rebirth! Secondly, even if it is, the sea of ​​rebirth is not necessarily large or small, and it is changeable. I don't believe it. Haizi in the Gobi desert can keep changing as the legend says."

"But isn't our encounter along the way fulfilling that terrible legend one by one?" Tang Feng was quite unconvinced, he thought for a while, and then said: "Now I understand why Haizi is not marked on the ancient map. It stands to reason that such a big Haizi must appear on the map, but there is no one behind the jade screen! What does this mean? It means that this Haizi is the legendary Sea of ​​Rebirth, but it can be large or small, changeable and invisible, so it cannot be marked on the ancient map."

"Okay, you two stop arguing for now. Whether it is the sea of ​​rebirth or the unknown beast, it is not our real threat now." Makarov interrupted the dispute between Tang Feng and Han Jiang. He looked around the crowd, and finally Only then slowly said: "Our most real threat now is the thick fog that won't dissipate, and the giant python in the water!"

Makarov's words made everyone's hearts tremble, "Yes, this thick fog will linger for a long time, we can't stay by the water like this all the time! Maybe... maybe after dark, those snakes, no! It's the giant python that will swim to the shore, and then..." Liang Yuan didn't dare to say any more.

"Don't be scary! Of course we won't sit here and wait for death!" Tang Feng said firmly: "Tell me, this thick fog is not a bad thing."

"What did you say?" "What do you mean?" Liang Yuan, Yelena and Han Jiang looked at Tang Feng puzzled.

Only Makarov seemed to understand Tang Feng's meaning, "Tang Feng means that this dense fog is a bad thing for us, and it is also a bad thing for the general!"

Tang Feng nodded, "That's right, the generals and the others are numerous and powerful. If there hadn't been this dense fog, they might have found Hanhaimi City long ago. The dense fog trapped us, and it must have trapped them. They might be leaving We are not far away, so we must keep our voices down."

Tang Feng's words made everyone more vigilant. The five of them gathered together, all eyes were watching everything in the dense fog nervously, "But what should we do now? We can't wait here until it gets dark!" Yelena asked.

"Don't worry, let me judge!" Tang Feng took out his compass and electronic compass, and an incredible scene happened. The pointer on the compass pointed to the direction of the sand dunes behind him. Where is the south?But according to Tang Feng's judgment, the sand dunes behind him should be in the north, and the sea in front of him should be in the south!Tang Feng felt a little confused, no one knew what was going on?Makarov finally had to suggest, "Let's walk along the water's edge for a while, and then have a look!"

Everyone had to agree that the five people slowly started to walk along the water's edge. They didn't know what direction it was, let alone where they were going, and what terrible things were waiting for them ahead!

[Section [-]: Monument to the Army of Cowardly Xue]

In the dense fog, it took them a quarter of an hour to walk a hundred meters along the water's edge. Everyone was in high tension, and no one knew what to do next.If this has always been the case, then... when Tang Feng was thinking wildly, Han Jiang suddenly shouted, "Who?!"

Immediately afterwards, Han Jiang fired a shot forward, Tang Feng, Yelena and Makarov also pointed their guns forward, but only a black outline was faintly visible in the dense fog, that It's not a person, nor is it some unknown creature, what is that?
Tang Feng bravely took a few steps forward, the thick fog gradually cleared, and he saw a huge stone monument standing in the white sand beside Haizi.

Tang Feng let out a long breath, put away the pistol, and was suddenly surrounded by an inexplicable excitement in his heart. He didn't know how this stone tablet would help them, maybe it didn't help at all, but he could finally get rid of that suffocating atmosphere for a while. Situation, "It's a monument! It's a false alarm!"

When everyone came to the stele, Han Jiang glanced at the stele, still watching the surroundings vigilantly, and refused to put down his gun. Tang Feng reached out and touched the stele. The texture of the stele seemed to be very fragile. No wonder in this Gobi desert, Where did the hard rock come from?Tang Feng couldn't help feeling worried. With such a fragile rock and such a large amount of sandstorm in the desert, the words engraved on it would have long been blurred!

Tang Feng first observed the shape of the stele, and judged: "This stele should be made from local materials, so the quality of the stone is not good, and there are no carvings on it. It is difficult to tell which period this stele is from."

"Then we can only judge by the words on the stele." Liang Yuan said.
