Surviving Endless Disasters

Wen Zheng and others ignored the animals leaving and turned to look in the direction of the sound.

Chapter 138 Watching the sunset below the canyon, it was a different kind of scenery. The surroundings quickly became dark, and only the crimson eyes fell on the canyon.

As the sky gradually darkens, the occasional noises in the canyon also disappear, as if falling into a deep sleep with the setting sun.

On the steep rock wall, Professor Huang was struggling to climb up with a strong nylon rope in his hand. His feet kept moving on the rock wall, looking for a stable footing. If he was not careful, the weathered and soft rock would fall. After being kicked down, Huang Li and Wen Zheng who were following behind quickly dodged away.

Fortunately, their destination was not high. After climbing up a few meters, Professor Huang finally reached the natural cave on the rock wall. He was pulled in by Wen Zheng who had already reached the cave, followed closely by Huang Li.

A burning fire warmed the cave. Wen Zheng and others sat around the cave, looking at the strange man who called them up.

While watching the fight between two cute animals, Wen Zheng and others heard the shouts of their compatriots. After they discovered that there was someone living in the cave on the rock wall, they had a brief conversation at the top of their lungs.

Based on the clothes of the visitors and their understanding of their identities, Wen Zheng and others determined that the man named Hou Rui was a member of the rescue team who came to look for them. However, before they could say more, Hou Rui threw a kind of grass from above. Come down and let them crush the grass and smear it on the camel's body.

Hou Rui seemed to be very anxious, urging them to move quickly while looking at the sky, and then quickly climbed into the cave, saying that an animal would come out at night.

After meeting Wang Zhiyuan, Yang Liu and others, Professor Huang and Huang Li no longer trust people so easily, and are dubious about Hou Rui's words.

However, Wen Zheng carefully studied the thrown grass and determined that it was weeds, so he temporarily believed Hou Rui's words.

Then, Wen Zheng was the first to climb into the cave. If the people above wanted to do something small, Wen Zheng could handle it.

It turns out that Hou Rui doesn't have any bad intentions for the time being.

Sitting in a high cave, Wen Zheng and others listened to Hou Rui telling the story of the rescue team.

The previous experience was the same as Wen Zheng's guess at the time. The rescue team did not expect such a large dust storm to occur in autumn, and the speed of tornado formation exceeded their expectations.

Before the plane fell, the windows of the plane were smashed by rocks flying at high speed. One of the teammates was sucked out of the plane by the huge suction force and disappeared into the air.

They escaped the most difficult moment. Just after escaping from the crashed plane with their belongings, the plane exploded and was seriously damaged beyond repair.

The three surviving rescue team members used a few intact aircraft equipment to make simple transportation vehicles.

Encountering such an accident, of course they will not continue to go deep into the desert to find the members of the expedition team, but want to leave the desert as soon as possible.

They had no camels, so they worked hard to replenish water in this canyon. However, when they reached the source of the water, the sky gradually darkened, and then they were attacked by a huge lizard. Even if they used guns to attack, they were exhausted and frightened. In this case, the three members of the rescue team lowered their heads accurately. In the end, only Hou Rui survived, and his leg was injured and fractured.

Hou Rui's leg was broken and he couldn't move. He had no means of transportation. There was only a dead end to leave this canyon. He could only stay in the canyon temporarily and wait for the leg injury to be repaired.

"What kind of lizard? You three guys with guns can't beat it?" Huang Li asked in surprise.

"You will know later. This lizard likes to move at night, but don't worry, this lizard doesn't like the smell of this kind of grass. I escaped death because of this.

"While speaking, Hou Rui threw the grass into the fire, and the burning smell became more intense.

"Will the camel be fine if it's painted with that grass?" Wen Zheng asked, looking at the camel tied under the cave.

Hearing this, Hou Rui looked at them apologetically and said, "Sorry, I'm not sure whether that lizard can accept food contaminated with an unpleasant smell.

I discovered you too late. That lizard was moving extremely fast and didn't know where it was staying. Even if you turned around and left at that time, you might still run into them.

Besides, you brought a total of six camels. According to the habit of that lizard, it prefers to eat live animals. If it is not angered, it will only bite one to death. At noon tomorrow, we will leave on the remaining camels. That's it.

"After no one spoke for a long time and under great pressure, Hou Rui spoke out all his thoughts.

Just when Hou Rui was about to say something more, a rustling sound came from afar, which was particularly obvious in the silent night.

The canyon was pitch black in the middle of the night, and the bright moonlight could only illuminate a small area. Everyone stood at the entrance of the cave and waited with bated breath. Finally, they saw a scene that impressed them deeply in their minds, a huge lizard. Crawling on the ground in the distance, gradually getting closer to the place where the camel stayed under the cave.

"What on earth is this?" Huang Li said in shock, with a little fear in his eyes.

This lizard can definitely exceed three meters including its tail. It is completely black and has tiny scales on its back, but it does not have an extremely long tail like ordinary lizards.

According to Hou Rui, when he and his teammates encountered this lizard, they hit it on the tail with a gun. As a result, the giant lizard broke off its tail like a gecko, and the broken tail could continue to beat, attracting out of their sight, causing them heavy casualties.

Wen Zheng squinted his eyes and looked down. This monitor lizard was moving extremely fast. When crawling, it touched the surrounding plants and gravel, making a rustling sound.

He shifted his gaze to a shovel in the cave. It was the weapon Hou Rui brought into the desert. It was not an ordinary shovel, but a sharp military shovel.

Wen Zheng kept evaluating the strength of this monitor lizard in his mind. Although there was no information about such a big lizard, Wen Zheng knew that there was a smaller desert lizard that looked similar to this monitor lizard, but it was of normal size. The most violent attack method when encountering danger is a sudden swing of the tail.

This giant lizard has no tail, and its combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced. At least it doesn't have to avoid danger from behind.

When the camel below sensed danger and began to stir, and the monitor lizard was about to approach the cave, he picked up the ordnance shovel next to him with one hand, held the nylon rope hanging on the cave with the other, and slid down from it.

"Wen Zheng! What do you want?" "Brother Wen! Don't go down, it's dangerous down there!" Huang Li and Professor Huang watched with fear as Wen Zheng rowed down, and quickly rushed to the entrance of the cave to look down, their hearts pounding nervously. It was beating, as if jumping to his throat, worrying about Wen Zheng.

A shrill cry echoed through the canyon, and some unstable rocks fell off the rock wall.

The people in the cave clearly saw that Wen Zheng was standing on the head of the monitor lizard, and the weapon shovel in his hand was inserted into the neck of the monitor lizard.

"This is a member of your expedition team? This is amazing.

"Hour Rui looked down in surprise, as if his world view had been refreshed.

Feeling the severe pain, the monitor lizard roared angrily, expanded and arched its body, trying to swing its tail.

But after waiting for the action, the monitor lizard discovered that its new tail had not grown yet, and it could only swim freely on the ground angrily, trying to shake off Wen Zheng from its body.

At this time, the monitor lizard misses its tail very much. If the tail is still there, it can kill this nasty little bug directly.
