Chapter 32 Chapter 30 Arranging Difficulties

After the joke was over, Wu Xie said to the other two while walking: "The most important thing now is to find out the cause of the tragedy here, so starting tomorrow, we will check all the cars. We are now What is the luckiest thing? People here are trapped and buried to death by wind and sand, rather than dying from running out of food and drinking water, so maybe there will be a lot of resources in the car. These resources, such as military compressed biscuits , perhaps edible in such dry weather, so we must look very, very carefully for all the vehicles, and then search each corpse for dry food."

Li Cuo asked: "How do you know that these people didn't die of thirst or starvation? I think that if there is a big wind and sandstorm, at most people will be trapped but not trapped to death, so the cause of their death is the lack of food and water." Alright." Wu Xie patted Li Cu on the shoulder: "Children have lived in the city for too long, do you know what a big sandstorm is?" Li Cuo shook his head, and Wu Xie said, "The so-called big sandstorm is when you Everything around you is not a gas but a solid, do you understand? In other words, you will eventually die of suffocation. There are two types of suffocation, one is a large amount of wind and sand pouring into your mouth and nose, making you unable to breathe , if you don’t have a particularly solid shelter from the wind, you will die miserably; the second is that you will be buried by wind and sand.”

"Take...Take taxis!" Li Cu said.Before he finished speaking, Wu Xie kicked him off the sand dune: "Speak Chinese." The next two full days were completely tedious tidying up work. At first Li Cu was a little afraid of the dead, but at dusk on the first day, Li Cu was able to treat the mummies as inanimate objects just like Wu Xie. dealt with.Sure enough, as Wu Xie expected, they found some compressed biscuits on these trucks. When they were tired of tidying up, they would eat some biscuits and drink some water in the sea. They couldn't think too much about the quality of food and water, life-saving was the most important thing.

They pulled all the bodies out of the car, then found a sand dune in the distance, and buried the bodies one by one.Later they found that there were too many corpses, and they couldn't bury them so cleanly and neatly with the strength of a few of them, so they had to throw the corpses down from the sand dune, and then slide down the sand. They wanted to fill up the sand valley with corpses . By the afternoon of the second day, they initially estimated that more than a thousand corpses had been disposed of, and the huge number of corpses piled up into a pile of dead.Wu Xie decided to erect a tombstone for these dead soldiers. When erecting the tombstone, Li Cuo asked Wu Xie what name would be better for the tombstone.

"What's the name?" Wu Xie said, "No matter what purpose they come to this place, after all, people are dead, and respecting the dead is our traditional virtue." "Is that called the Thousand Martyrs Monument?" Li Cuo said. Wang Meng retorted: "Although a martyr is a glorious title, calling it a martyr always makes people uncomfortable. It's better to have some humanistic names." Wu Xie looked at him: "Humanistic feelings, you also understand humanities?" Wang Meng scratched his head and smiled. Li Cu continued: "Why don't we just call it Li Ren Bei. Li Ren Li Ren, people who leave their hometown can never go back, which kind of grief is it? Of course it is Kong Beiqie's grief."

Wu Xie nodded: "Sure enough, it is a good flower of the motherland. Yes, let's erect this monument. Can you write these three characters?" "I'm a high school student." Li Cu said angrily, "I'm different from you illiterates." They found a metal plate, and Wu Xie engraved the words "Li Ren Bei" on it, and Wang Meng slammed it into the sand dune.Li Cu found that Wu Xie's handwriting was quite beautiful, and realized that this tomb robber should not be called illiterate. Several people bowed, and Wu Xie muttered: "Big brothers and sisters, uncles and uncles, I know your souls are still wandering around. They say that people who are trapped to death in the desert will never get out of the desert. Please don't worry, as long as you Bless us, follow us, and we will be able to go out. Those who should be reincarnated should be reincarnated, those who should be scary should be scary, and those who should make ghost movies should make ghost movies. No one will delay anyone. Oh, okay?"

Li Cuo asked, "Where did you learn so many heavenly words?" Wu Xie said: "This is the specialty of a friend of mine. Now I find that saying such things at this time can imply that even if I die, I will die happily." "Why are your friends thinking so sadly?" Li Cu said. Wu Xie chuckled: "My friend can't be described by just 'mourning'. I have a chance to introduce you, if you don't get stewed by me." After a few people dealt with the dead, they began to deal with the things left by the dead. Indeed, as Wu Xie said, there were a lot of things on these people.In the end, they sorted out as many as three or four sacks.

The sorting work was going on, and Li Cu found that most of the things Wang Meng found were gold and silver jewelry.Soldiers are not allowed to wear jewelry casually. These things should be carried with them. There are many food stamps and coins at that time, and some rings and watches wrapped in oilcloth. Li Cu said angrily: "Damn it, you stole money from the dead?" Wang Meng was not angry either, and said leisurely: "You don't understand now, they are buried in this desert where birds don't lay eggs, and finally turned into minerals after billions of years, and there is no chance of being re-mined. Right? So it’s a waste to bury it here. Give it to me, I’ll take it to the civilized world, and I can exchange it for money, or turn it into a souvenir. This is a good thing. This is to use the waste heat to make these people’s lives The material form of money continues through the hands of Lao Tzu."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Xie slapped Wang Meng on the head: "I don't see you being so clever when entertaining guests, but you are so clever when making money." Wang Meng said: "This is the result of learning from the boss." Just as he was talking, Li Cu took out a small ring from Wangmeng's pile, which was obviously a female ring, and Li Cu said, "Oh, there are women in that corpse?" Wang Meng nodded: "There should be, but it's all like that, and it's hard to tell whether it's a man or a woman." Li Cu said, "Isn't it good to bury these men and women together in one place?"

Wu Xie said, "I can't control that much anymore." As they spoke, several people involuntarily looked in the direction of the graveyard.Then they looked at each other and smiled, thinking that the process of identifying whether these mummies are male or female is even more desecrating to these corpses, and they have really done their best in doing so. After the three of them finished laughing, they were about to continue sorting the relics when Wu Xie frowned suddenly and said, "That's not right!" Li Cu said: "I'm not right, let's dig out the woman's body and find a new place to bury it."

Wu Xie said, "That's not it, what about the tombstone we just erected?" Several people stood up, looked towards the dune again, and found that the tombstone they had just inserted on the mountain was really gone. Li Cu asked Wang Meng: "Could it be that the insertion was not strong enough and it fell down?" Wang Meng said angrily: "I'm stuck in the sand at least eight or nine inches deep, how can it be so easy to fall, and there is no wind here." Wu Xie thought for a while, touched his chin, and said, "Copy guy, let's go and have a look." A few people walked over, and Wang Meng still didn't forget to put away all his junk and put it in his broken sack.When I got to the sand dunes, I saw that the tombstone had completely disappeared.Wu Xie clicked his tongue: "There are strange things every year, especially this year." He looked at Li Cu and Wang Meng, showing a particularly sad expression. "What's your expression?" Li Cuo asked, secretly feeling that Wu Xie's mind seemed a little abnormal. "This is pity for you and myself. I have an ominous premonition." Wu Xie said, pointing to the place where the sand dune had a tombstone just now, "Whenever I encounter such a situation, all kinds of weird things will inevitably happen. All things will be connected in series in the end. It seems that there should be more than the three of us who can move in this place, you look carefully at the sand." Li Cuo looked in the direction Wu Xie pointed, and saw a shallow and winding trace on the other side of the dune. Because the sand was white, the trace was not obvious.He walked over and knelt down to touch it, and felt that it was a trace of a snake crawling. "What snake? Can snakes in the desert move things?" Li Cuo thought to himself. The traces meandered all the way down to what they called "Li Ren Bei" mass graves under the dunes.In this sandy valley, there were more than a thousand corpses buried, which made Li Cuo feel rather uncomfortable. "It seems that something crawled out of the pile of dead bodies. Judging from these marks, it should be a long strip. Did we find snakes or similar living things when we just moved the dead?" Wu Xie asked. The other two shook their heads, and Wang Meng also said: "Even if there are snakes, the marks are not big, otherwise the marks would not be so shallow. It is impossible for them to tear off all the tombstones." Li Cuo also denied Wu Xie's judgment: "No, these marks are not formed on the sand surface, but caused by something twisting under the sand. Could it be that there are some kind of snakes or long strips of snakes moving under the sand? thing?" Wu Xie rubbed her chin, looked at the circular car camping site, shook her head and said, "So that's the case, there is a contradiction here, I don't know if you have discovered it."
