Chapter 36 Chapter 34 The Strange Old Man

They wrestled a lot while roaring at each other, and finally both of them fell into the sea.Li Cu pushed the man away with all his strength, and with a plop, the gun was thrown somewhere, away from the man.Then the man stood up from the water, also panting.The two looked at each other, under the moonlight, Li Cu found that the man's skin was extremely pale, it seemed that he was not a young man, but an old man. "Who are you?" Li Cu yelled at him, "Why did you attack me? I was passing by!" After panting for a long time, the other party spoke in a strange language.After listening, Li Cu found that this is a local dialect. If you listen to it as Mandarin, you will never understand it, but if you guess it according to the pronunciation, you can guess the general meaning.

The stranger seemed to be asking Li Cu, "Who are you?" Li Cuoxin said: You don't care who I am.It doesn't matter who I am, I'm a loser, I was kidnapped here, they got caught in the sand by monsters, and you won't believe me if I tell you, and you won't know who I am I.But when he thought about it, didn't he ask this question just now? For the two in fear, who is the other party is always the question they want to know most. "I'm a lost man." Li Cu tried to calm himself down, "People from Beijing, I'm lost here, I'm trapped here. There used to be three people, but now I'm the only one." The man was stunned After listening to Li Cu finished speaking, he said to him in Mandarin with an accent: "You are a victim, how did you get into trouble? Did you fall from the plane?"

"I can't tell." Li Cu scratched his head, "I said I came by boat, do you believe me?" The man looked at Li Cu and didn't speak for a long time. He seemed to have noticed something, and said, "You really came from outside the desert? Didn't you come from the sand?" "I lied to you as a puppy." "It's not good for me that you are a puppy." The man still didn't dare to get close to Li Cu, but he relaxed a bit, "Then let me ask you, what year is it now?" Li Cu roughly told him about the time. The man was stunned for a moment, and said a little dullly: "God, it's been almost thirty years. I've actually been in this shitty place for thirty years."

Li Cu asked him: "Okay, sir, now it's your turn to tell me, who are you?" The man looked around, pointed to the truck, and said with a dull expression, "I drive." Li Cu looked at his clothes and found that they were indeed the same as those on the mummy, but they were more torn than those clothes, and there were many things hanging on his body. "Are you one of the drivers driving these cars?" That person ignored Li Cu, and just said to himself: "It's been thirty years." Li Cu said, "Why didn't you die?" After asking, he felt impolite.

The man looked a little confused, and said: "Why do you want to die? As long as you know the rules here, you won't die. How can it be so easy to die?" Li Cu felt that this person was a little crazy, as if there was something wrong with his mind.The man suddenly seemed to remember something, turned his head and said to Li Cuo, "How did you say you got in? By boat?" Li Cuang just wanted to answer him, they came here in a mobile Haizi like a bus.Suddenly the other party turned his head to the side of the sand dunes, as if he was listening to something.Li Cu wanted to speak, but the man immediately waved his hand and said to him, "Shh, don't say it yet."

Li Cu was startled by him and dared not speak any more, just listening quietly.He didn't hear anything, only the occasional sound of sand falling from the dunes to the ground from a distance. Just as Li Cu was about to ask him, the man said to him again with a very exaggerated expression: "Hush..." Then, the man suddenly sank into the water, Li Cu was bewildered, and saw the man waving his hands desperately, Make him do the same. Li Cu had no choice but to endure the pain in his back, and sank his whole body into the water.Then, he heard the sound of something hitting metal from inside the truck surrounding Haizi.Clang—in the darkness, he couldn't tell which truck was coming from.Then there was another clang, and he noticed that the sound seemed to have moved this time.Li Cu was very frightened, he remembered the thing that caught Wu Xie and Wang Meng into the sand during the day.

Li Cu held his breath and listened quietly. Slowly, he realized that it was not a single sound. Such a sound came from all the trucks around him, and it seemed that there were countless things hitting the trucks.The sound became more and more dense, and there were more and more sounds, and soon the whole circle around Haizi was like a symphony, and the sounds one after another made the originally peaceful desert become noisy. Li Cu was so stunned that he hardly dared to breathe. He wished he could bury his head in the water to escape from such a terrible sound.In a daze, someone from behind tapped him on the shoulder, and he almost screamed.Looking back, I saw that the person who was fighting with him just now had quietly waded behind him, and said softly to him: "Don't worry, they can't get in."

Li Cuo asked the man, "What are those?" The man said: "Thirty years, I don't know what it is. You can't see them, they are under the sand, so we used all the cars to surround this lake and made a circle of barriers. They are not so smart , they seem to have a special reaction to metal things, they will attack these cars, but they can't get past these cars and drill into this area." "Wai Haizi?" Wu Xie had several explanations for the layout of the convoy at the time, but it seemed that he guessed them all wrong. The man said: "These things want to drink water, and they will become very scary after drinking water. We can't let them touch the water, so we did these measures. But we made a mistake. We trapped them outside and put them in the water." I'm trapped inside. Don't say it, let's not make a sound, otherwise it will be a toss all night."

Li Cu listened and felt that there were many things he still didn't understand, but he also felt that now was not the time to discuss these issues.The two of them stayed quietly in the water. The desert at night was very cold, and the biting water soaked his wound, making his body slowly numb and less uncomfortable.He asked no more questions. I don't know how long it took, but slowly, the desert calmed down. They waited in Haizi for a long time, and the man made a gesture to Li Cuo to show safety, and the two of them waded to the shore and came to the car where the man was staying. on the side.Li Cu's whole body was swollen from the water, and he couldn't move at all.Lying on the sand, he even began to tremble involuntarily.The man climbed to the back of the car with the lights on, dug in the sand behind the car, dug out a box of things, took out a small jar from it, and asked Li Cuo to drink the contents.

Li Cuo found that it was a can of shochu.After drinking the wine, Li Cu felt warmer.The man took some particularly smelly military overcoats and put them on for him.Li Cu couldn't care less, and he felt warm immediately after putting on his coat. The two of them waited for a while in the dark before the man helped Li Cu up and walked to the car he was in before.Li Cu went into the car and sat down. The man closed the door. Li Cu found that the interior of the car was well maintained. When they searched before, they would not go in if they encountered a door that could not be opened. Obviously they missed it. the car.

Only then did he see his true face. This man has a big beard all over his face, the beard has grown like a Taoist priest in the movie, and his hair and eyebrows are a bit too long.The skin on this man's body is already dry, and he looks seventy or eighty years old, but judging from the man's physique and strength during the fight, this man should be in the prime of life. Obviously, this harsh climate made him It became what it is now. That person was also looking at Li Cu, looking at Li Cu, he suddenly laughed and said in Mandarin with a strange accent: "I finally saw a living person, I thought I would be here alone in this life die of old age." Li Cu looked at him and asked, "You are in this compartment during the day? There are three of us, and we keep going around here during the day, digging up these cars. You haven't seen us?" The man shook his head and said: "No. I usually don't come out for activities. Those things are very sensitive to sound. I usually stay in this car. This car was buried in the sand before. I spend all my time in the car. I'm sleeping. I don't know how long I'll sleep, I've been sleeping and sleeping until I'm really hungry and thirsty, so I will come out and eat something." Li Cu thought to himself: Could this guy have been sleeping in the car during the time they were active here?It is indeed possible, because it took them a lot of time to dig out all the cars here.But they didn't search carefully in many cars. For them, there were too many cars here, and it was impossible for them to check them one by one.However, he vaguely felt that something was wrong. This kind of strangeness stems from Li Cu's feelings about the details of this person, the most important of which is that he feels that this person has lived alone for thirty years, which is unbelievable. If he has lived alone for thirty years, he must be crazy .Although this person's thinking is a bit slow, it seems that he is a bit too normal. Too normal is a kind of abnormality.However, this man's beard is absolutely genuine. With such a beard and such skin, he hadn't been trapped in such a place for such a long time. It is estimated that no Hollywood makeup artist can make it so real. But Li Cu was still too young, even if he felt something was wrong, he didn't think about it deeply. After all, he had never met such a person before, so he couldn't compare. The man continued: "By the way, since you came in, will someone come to rescue you? Can you take me out with you? Oh, no, no, no, no." The man shook his head vigorously after asking this sentence , "Anyone who approaches here will be caught by those things. Saving people is equal to harming others." Li Cu said: "I think you can rest assured that no one will come to rescue me." He told this person all about his involvement in this matter.After the man heard this, he frowned nervously, as if he was thinking, but he didn't say anything, but his eyes involuntarily glanced at Li Cu's back. Li Cu didn't pay attention, and asked him: "I've talked so much, tell me about yourself. What's the matter with these cars?" The man closed his eyes and looked at him.Li Cu continued to ask: "How did your team get here? What happened here?"
