Chapter 248: Things inside
As we walked towards the mysterious oasis mentioned by Mr. Otto, we could see animal carcasses hidden in the sand from time to time...but only animal carcasses.
As the Bedouin Adili said, there are few people nearby... Even though they know that there is an oasis with sufficient water here, they prefer to live in a place with more difficult conditions.
The more primitive the tribe, the deeper their worship and awe of primitiveness.
Luo Qiu and Mr. Otto stopped talking about the "Gospel of Judas". Perhaps because they were approaching their destination, everyone gradually became silent - including Ali, who seemed to be a dead star if he didn't speak. Ya, same thing.
"The camel can't go ahead." Aria suddenly said loudly: "If you go further, the camel will lose control and throw you to the ground! Don't believe it, otherwise when you are thrown off, don't blame me for not warning you. you."
Claudia glanced at Boss Luo dubiously - and saw Boss Luo nodded slightly.
Claudia didn't mutter anything this time... She actually vaguely felt that the camel under her seat was gradually struggling to control it - the camel's desire to move forward was constantly decreasing.
"What's in front of you?" Claudia asked with a frown.
"God!" Aria put her hands on her chest and bowed to the oasis in the distance. "We humans should not offend the great God. This will make us punished!"
Claudia sneered: "But you already offended once half a year ago, and then now too!"
Aria naturally had a distorted theory, and he said bluntly: "God will not be too harsh on hard-working people. I am a hard-working person, and I have reverence for God in my heart."
"I'm afraid this god is blind!" Claudia snorted coldly and was about to climb off the camel... Unexpectedly, the camel under her seat suddenly became confused and started to spin around.
As expected, Claudia was thrown off the camel's back. Fortunately, the ground was full of fine sand and she was not injured.
At this time, the camel broke free from comfort and fled quickly away from the oasis. Claudia chased for a few steps but failed to catch up, so she had no choice but to give up and walked back with a gloomy face.
"Why didn't your camel lose control?" Claudia looked at Luo Qiu in surprise after returning!
Boss Luo has never sat on a camel since he chose to hike with Mr. Otto. He only held the rope that tied the camel... I saw that the camel looked docile at this time, with no signs of losing control at all.
"Animals lose control because they feel uneasy and dangerous." Mr. Otto said suddenly at this time: "Their senses are infinitely sharper than humans... Creatures like camels are second to none in their ability to predict danger in the desert. - This camel probably hasn’t felt danger yet, or in other words, it only feels safe.”
"Is this a female camel?" Claudia rolled her eyes angrily.
But Luo Qiu suddenly let go of the rope in his hand, reached out to pat the camel's body, and said softly: "It's been a tough journey, go find your companion."
The camel seemed to be able to understand. At this time, it neighed twice, and then looked for the direction where the out-of-control camel had left. It would only stop from time to time, and then look back... until it finally disappeared. On the road among the sand dunes.
"You...why did you let it go! Why are we riding like this?" Claudia was about to go crazy. "This is a desert, and no one from the Animal Protection Association is coming to find you! Animal lovers!"
Boss Luo said, "Since there is only one camel left, it's hard for us to ride it, right?"
Claudia opened her mouth, stamped her feet, and muttered: "How about we ride together."
"Stop arguing! Look -!" Aria suddenly ended the conversation and pointed in front of her in panic - where the oasis is!
On the road ahead, at the end where the air was distorted by the heat, in the brown-green oasis, I could vaguely see a huge shaking building!
The shaking of the building is naturally due to the refraction of light, but even so, the outline of this huge building can still be clearly seen... Claudia hurriedly drew a sketch of the Otto from Boss Luo's hand He took out his notebook and compared it with the building in front of him.
"There really are... historic sites." She calmed down and looked at Boss Luo with a look of surprise: "And they are exactly the same! And..."
Claudia suddenly looked at Aria and Mr. Otto, and sneered: "Also, the facts prove that you are lying again... Didn't you say that the core temple has disappeared? Look Look what is this? This is the lost temple you drew! It’s exactly the same!”
Mr. Otto did not answer at this time. He just frowned and looked straight at the oasis ahead with a hint of confusion in his expression.
"You're talking, Mr. Liar!" Claudia snorted again.
At this time, Mr. Otto just glanced at Claudia indifferently, without saying anything, and passed the crowd and walked directly towards the oasis.
Claudia wanted to stop him, so she pulled hard on the rope that tied Mr. Otto...but what she pulled back was just a broken nylon rope!
I saw Mr. Otto's hands that were tied behind his back. After a few flexibly turning, the rope that tied him automatically untied and fell down.
He still walked forward, his pace was much faster than when he came, and he seemed unusually brisk.
"He, he... how did he do it? What I tied was not an ordinary knot!" Claudia pointed at Mr. Otto's back who had untied the knot like a magician performing, and looked at it stupidly. Looking at the new male student in the class, his face was full of surprise.
Boss Luo just smiled and said casually: "What kind of knot is that?"
Claudia opened her mouth, as if she was a little confused... She shook her head, "It's nothing... Otto is weird everywhere, we have to follow closely to prevent him from doing anything secretly... At the current location, he is the only guy we have found who knows what happened to my father when he was studying the ancient ruins. I don’t believe what he said about losing his memory at all.”
With that said, Claudia even took out her mobile phone, turned on the shooting mode, and quickly chased after him with a gun, apparently intending to record everything.
At this time, Aria followed Otto's example and twisted his wrist a few times...but the knot became tighter and tighter, almost strangling him to the point of crying in pain.
He met Boss Luo's gaze, and in the end he could only smile, lowering his head and walking in silence.
The distance between them and the oasis with its mysterious monuments was shortening little by little... and they even reached the outskirts of the oasis without any accidents on the way.
And Mr. Otto, who had been walking in front, finally stopped at this moment... Standing outside the oasis, Mr. Otto looked up at everything inside and whispered coldly: "I have been to this place before... More than once."
But no one heard what he said.
Claudia finally caught up because Otto finally stopped here, but she didn't expect that Mr. Otto who stopped suddenly walked forward and disappeared into the bushes of the oasis in the blink of an eye.
…
It is hard to imagine that in the center of a barren and extremely harsh desert, such a vibrant oasis could appear - the plants here look like juicy types... there are even fruits - they can be seen everywhere fruit trees.
It is obviously a harsh environment with the scorching sun in the sky, but because of the plants that are tall enough to bring shade, there is a rare coolness here.
Even the water...the water was cool, as sweet as well water.
The contrasting local geographical environment made Claudia, a top student who believed in science, couldn't help but exclaim that it was magical... Claudia used her half-knowledge of geography to guess that there was probably a water source below the oasis. Abundant underground rivers, otherwise such a lush oasis would not be possible.
"It's unreasonable for those Bedouin people to abandon such a good place." Claudia casually picked a bunch of red fruits from a fruit tree, broke them and stuffed them into her mouth, "This is Dates are safe to eat, they are non-toxic and very nutritious. Usually, eating a few dates is enough for a day...mainly sugar."
Boss Luo took two of them and tasted them in small sips. He felt that the flavor was quite good.
"You...what is your look like?" Claudia felt that the new classmate's eyes were a little different at this time, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Are you afraid that I will lie to you?"
Boss Luo smiled and said, "I said before, Claudia, you are very powerful, but it's just not your time to show off yet... Look, it's not the time now."
She shrugged expressionlessly, but she felt somewhat proud in her heart. She even shook her head and neck slightly, as if there was a little innocent girl living inside her.
"Eat whatever you want! Leave quickly!"
The next second, Claudia hit Aria on the head with the semi-automatic rifle in her hand. The desert guide was really hungry at this time. He stood on tiptoes and bit into the fruits on the tree, taking big gulps. Started chewing.
Well...there's a big girl living here.
…
…
The further we walked inside, the more dense the plants became, even to the point where it was difficult to walk... Mr. Otto raised his head and looked at the buildings deep in the dense plants.
There were even many tiny wounds on his body scratched by sharp leaves - but these wounds went from forming to healing to almost disappearing in a very short period of time... His face looked like It is weathered and gray, but the skin inside the clothes appears to be very smooth.
"I've been here...I've been here...I've been here."
He kept repeating the same words in his mouth, until he finally got rid of the last obstacle, completely walked out of the barrier-like plants and grass, and stood in front of a huge temple.
He walked forward and reached the entrance of the trapezoidal pyramid temple, but was eventually blocked by a huge stone door that was completely closed.
Mr. Otto took a deep breath, put his palm on the huge stone door, and carefully touched the lines engraved on the stone door - at this moment, the stone door suddenly started to tremble, and then slowly rose.
He frowned. The rising stone door led to a dark passage... It seemed that deep in the passage, there was a voice coming from a figure, like a snake language... a voice!
The dark passage seemed like a road leading to the underworld. Mr. Otto suddenly felt a chill that penetrated his bones... He hesitated for a moment, and finally took a step forward and stepped into the stone door.
"stop--!"
But at this moment, a loud voice came from behind - Claudia's voice!
Mr. Otto suddenly shuddered when he heard the sound. At this moment, he realized that he was already soaked. At this moment, a large amount of sweat was discharged from his body!
Although he can also sweat, due to his physique, the weight is much less than that of ordinary people - he has not sweated so much in so many years.
His heart also jumped suddenly at this time, and Mr. Otto suddenly retracted his steps. He felt that the faint voice that sounded like snake language became louder and louder in his head... His face suddenly turned pale, and then he felt dizzy.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Claudia, who came from behind, grabbed Otto's arm with force and asked in a deep voice: "Is there anything else you are hiding...ah—— !”
Mr. Otto turned back and glanced at Claudia. This glance also allowed Claudia to see Mr. Otto's face clearly at this time - she suddenly screamed in horror!
At this moment, Otto's face was filled with dense cracks... It was as if his whole body was like a doll made of clay... His face, his neck, and even his exposed skin, At this time, the cracks that appeared after the clay doll was over-dried appeared!
This terrifying appearance was what made Claudia scream instantly.
She instinctively let go of her hand holding Otto's arm... She saw that Mr. Otto lost his support at this time, rolled his eyes and fell directly to the ground.
"what's going on."
"I...I don't know, he...he suddenly..." Claudia turned around and looked at Luo Qiu walking behind her, her whole body became extremely flustered, "I...I just grabbed him, he He suddenly fell down! He...he looked very scary...very, very scary!"
After hearing this, Aria quickly turned Mr. Otto who was lying on the ground, but when he saw Otto's appearance, he was frightened, and he was so frightened that he sat up directly. "This... this... this... this? Is there really a god? The god is going to punish... he's going to punish us!"
As he said this, Aria immediately fell to the ground and trembled all over. She kept mumbling something and didn't know what to say - but Luo Qiu could tell that it was a Bedouin dialect - it seemed that Aria had the same relationship as before. Like Mr. Adili of that small tribe, he is also a Bedouin.
Boss Luo glanced at the unconscious Otto at this time. When he was about to take a closer look, the red djinn hiding in the magic lamp suddenly heard a voice.
A muffled voice.
"There... there is an evil aura... I can feel a power that is far more powerful than me - in this world, there is actually a power more powerful than me as a djinn spirit! Go quickly... take me with you Come on... the things inside seem to have woken up! Hurry--!"
By the end, the red djinn's voice had become tense...
