Chapter 393 Arrangement
"Hey! Let's go!"

Just before dawn, Fang Ming stood up, and in front of him, Niu Ping, and Zhao Zhuzi were three big cages, which were snake cages they spun overnight.

"it is good."

Zhao Zhuzi also stood up. Although he said he hadn't slept all night, he was a vigorous person, so he didn't feel tired at all.

Fang Ming picked up a snake cage, Zhao Zhuzi picked up the other two, and strode away. As for Niu Ping, of course he didn't need to do such a thing, and he would stay at the campsite, so that if there were other unexpected situations If it happens, he can deal with it at any time.

Although it was morning and the sun had just risen, it was still very hot, especially in the desert. Both Fang Ming and Zhao Zhuzi felt that the sand had become hot.

The pothole Zhao Zhuzi dug was not far away, so he arrived soon.Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, Fang Ming was still shocked when Zhao Zhuzi gently pushed aside the sand covering the pothole and removed a temporary "cover" made of tree branches underneath. One jump, it has nothing to do with cowardice, it's just that the situation in front of me has never been seen before.

I saw a pothole less than one meter deep and about two meters in diameter densely packed with rattlesnakes, each of which was entangled with the other. It’s true that there is me in you and you in me, so let’s forget it. Each body was wriggling constantly, and their heads were raised high, spitting out bloody poisonous poison, and what made people shudder even more was the rattling tail that made a "silent silk" sound!
It took a while to recover, Fang Ming looked at Zhao Zhuzi and said, "Zhuzi, you are really a master!"

"Hahaha! Brother Fang Ming, compared to you, I am really nothing."

Fang Ming shook his head, seeing the smug look on Zhao Zhuzi's face, he obviously took his words as a sincere compliment.

At that moment, Fang Ming and Zhao Zhuzi carefully moved all the rattlesnakes in the pit into the woven snake cages. This was not an easy task, after all, they were all dealing with people who were in severe pain and would die if they were bitten.Although both of them belong to the daring masters of Yigao, it took a long time and their clothes were soaked. This is not only because the weather is too hot, but more importantly, the spirit has always been highly concentrated s reason.

"call!!!!"

After tightly closing the lid of the snake cage, Fang Ming let out a long breath. One or two rattlesnakes are just for fun, but these thousands and hundreds of rattlesnakes are just for fun. Heartbeat.

"Hey, Brother Fang Ming, this thing is really exciting, even more exciting than when I was on a mission at the border."

Zhao Zhuzi's face was also covered with sweat, and it seemed that he was not more relaxed than Fang Ming.

Nodding his head, Fang Ming said, "This thing is no different from dancing with death."

The snake cage is made of thin rattan, and the holes left are very small, as big as a little finger, so there is no way for the snake to crawl out after it is put in.But even so, Fang Ming and Zhao Zhuzi were still quite cautious. They used a long stick that they had prepared long ago to string up three cages, and then each of them carried them up and walked towards the place where they found the tent last night.

Rattlesnakes live in groups, and there has always been a saying of "snake nests". Fang Ming and Zhao Zhuzi scattered several large cages of rattlesnakes on the road leading to the oasis, and deliberately moved some dead wood and stones and placed them on the sand.

After the sun came out, the temperature in the desert was quite high. As soon as the rattlesnake came out of the cage, it instinctively crawled towards dead wood and stones, because that place was the shady place.

Looking at the scattered rattlesnakes, Fang Ming laughed and said, "Even a fool would not dare to fight against so many rattlesnakes!"

He wasn't worried that these rattlesnakes would crawl to other places, even if they did, they would slowly "disappear" after a few days, but this period of time was enough, the group of people in the tent It will definitely retreat in the face of difficulties or slowly deviate from the correct line.No matter which one it is, it can achieve its own purpose.

"Hey! Brother Fang Ming, this is a good move. Now I want to see what kind of expressions they will have when they see the rattlesnakes."

Zhao Zhuzi looked like he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and he even showed an expression of excitement on his face.

"Well, let's take a look then."

Fang Ming and Zhao Zhuzi found a slightly raised sand dune nearby, dug out a huge sand pit that could hold two people, and "ambushed" them down. Anyway, there was sand everywhere, and the wind was blowing constantly. Scratching, the marks left behind will disappear after a while, and I don't even know that someone has tampered with it.

Slowly, the entire desert became quiet, the only sound in the air was the sound of the wind, and of course, there was also the tingling sensation that the "Sisi" or "buzzing" rattlesnake found. sound.

"call!"

Gail opened the tent door and strode out. His tall body was like a tiger. Although he was over 40 years old, he was still full of strength. The big beard gave him a bit of a tough look, he was wearing ordinary canvas clothes, and he was wearing a pair of tall leather boots—this is very important in the desert, even if he accidentally stepped on a snake or something, Unless it is a very large one that can attack a very high position, it will not die within the first time.

Gail is an explorer, or treasure hunter, who became a multi-millionaire ten years ago after successfully finding a sunken ship, and has been traveling the world, literally, treasure hunting ever since.

Three years ago, he accidentally got a treasure map from someone, which was about an imperial tomb in a mysterious eastern country.The imperial mausoleum is the place where the emperor is buried after his death. There must be a lot of treasures and antiques in it.In the past three years, he spent a lot of time and money on researching and perfecting the treasure map, finally determined the approximate location, and then formed an expedition team into the desert. team.

At the beginning, everything went smoothly, and a lot of research in the early stage played a huge role. Gail quickly found the right direction-everything around and the research can be matched, but until yesterday, something suddenly happened Three people in the group accidentally stepped into a snake nest when they passed a small sand dune. There were nearly twenty rattlesnakes there, so although the three people also wore special high boots like themselves, they still There was no way to escape, everyone was bitten, and if he hadn't prepared the serum in advance, the three of them would have died, but even so, the three of them were lying motionless in the tent at this time.

These three people are experts invited by Gail. Two of them are first-class experts in excavating ancient tombs, and the other is a guide. Now that they are lying down, the impact is too great.

Standing in front of the tent, Gail frowned tightly. Looking into the distance, the sand dunes were one after another, and he couldn't see the edge at all. It turned out that he had always been full of confidence, but at this time his confidence was affected. affected.

He is a master with many years of exploration experience, and he has been to many places in the desert. He knows that the most difficult thing to walk in the desert is the natural conditions, and there are poisonous snakes and insects in the desert. When will it appear - even the best desert survival experts can't say that they will be able to fully enter and fully come back.

"Gal, things are not going well."

A middle-aged man who was about the same age as Gail came over. He was Gail's old friend Berlin for many years. His brows were also tightly frowned at this time.

"We are running out of serum stocks. If this happens again, it will be a big problem."

Serum is a kind of medicine that needs to be preserved under low temperature conditions. In places like deserts, special equipment is required. Gail also brought a little just in case. The three people yesterday had already consumed half of the serum. It's over, and the situation of the three people is still not ideal. It's hard to say whether they will be needed in the future.

Moreover, he has only entered the desert now and has not returned. Once the serum is consumed at this time, if he is accidentally bitten by a poisonous snake, he can only say goodbye to being alive.

Gail is no longer the penniless adventurer of the past, and now he cares more about being able to live, so when he heard what Berlin said, his brows tightened even more, but he didn't want to give up just yet.

"How far is it from our destination?"

Berlin took out a piece of paper, looked at it for a while, and said slowly: "Our target is an approximate range. We are here now, and then the destination is this place. The straight-line distance between the two places is about one. Let's go three kilometers."

Gail frowned. The difference between the so-called straight-line distance and the real distance is most likely not 01:30. This is because there are undulating sand dunes in the desert. This thing is like a mountain. It looks very close and walks. But it is very far.

"Where is the place we went to last night? How far is it from our destination?"

Last night was actually very close to the destination, and it was precisely because of this that Gail’s heart became anxious, so he asked the team to drive a little longer while it was cool, but something happened unexpectedly, and something happened. After the incident, he immediately withdrew his team and found a safe place to set up camp.

"It's very close there, but we've lost our experts and guides. What's more, since there are snake nests there, there may be more snakes. We may not be able to go there."
