Rebirth of Bloody Romance
Chapter 171 The Power of Self-Destruction
Zhong Yuemin's consciousness struggled in the darkness, as if he was trapped in an endless dark vortex, unable to escape. His reaction speed was fast enough, but in the face of such a life-and-death situation, he was still a little slow for a moment.
The moment Zhong Yuemin stepped into the space, his body involuntarily collapsed and he fell to the ground unconsciously.
At the same time, in the center of the Gobi Desert, the wind roared and raged like a raging wave, and yellow sand flew all over the sky, forming rolling sand waves.
The originally quiet and peaceful Gobi Desert suddenly became like a huge mushroom cloud rising from the ground and straight into the sky, and its mighty momentum seemed to tear the sky apart.
In the blink of an eye, the entire Gobi Desert was completely swallowed up by the violent sandstorm, and the sky and the earth were dark, as if the end of the world had come.
Ning Wei, Fatty Wang, Wu Jianjun, Zheng Tong, Professor Zhang and others stared at the horrifying scene behind them in horror, their hearts filled with endless despair.
They tried their best to drive the camels away, but these usually docile and obedient animals seemed to be enslaved by extreme fear. No matter how they were driven, they still lay there and refused to move even a step.
Savar, the experienced guide who had experienced countless storms, was also at a loss at this moment. He was well aware of the various dangers in the desert, especially the terrifying power of sandstorms - as long as he was caught in it, almost no one could escape.
Savar looked around nervously, his eyes flashing with determination. Then he shouted at the top of his voice, "Everyone, come into the camel circle! Hold hands and squat down! Remember, hold each other tightly and never let go!"
Hearing Savar's shout, people quickly acted as if awakened from a dream, rushing to the small shelter surrounded by camels. They held each other's hands tightly, shoulder to shoulder, heart to heart, trying their best to use the power of the group to resist the imminent sandstorm.
Fear and anxiety were clearly written on everyone's face, but at the same time they understood that only by working together could they have a slim chance of survival.
As time passed, the sandstorm got closer and closer, and the strong wind swept over like a mad beast, roaring.
The strong wind blew up yellow sand and fine stones all over the sky. These sharp particles as knives mercilessly hit people's cheeks, bringing bursts of pain.
The camels seemed to sense the approaching breath of death and began to cry anxiously, with expressions of fear flashing in their eyes.
However, at this critical moment, these loyal animals did not choose to flee or retreat, but stayed where they were, using their huge and solid bodies to build an indestructible line of defense for everyone, and struggled to resist the fierce invasion of wind and sand.
Time seemed to have stopped in this Gobi Desert swallowed by yellow sand, until the wind calmed down and everything returned to peace.
In the silence, suddenly, the breath of life wriggled in the gravel. A hand covered with yellow sand stretched out as if from hell, and then another hand struggled to break out of the ground.
It was a hand full of calluses but full of strength. Then, a face worn by wind and sand appeared. It was Ning Wei, with an unyielding light in his eyes.
Ning Wei struggled hard, most of his body was still buried deep in the sand, like a lonely sand sculpture. He kicked his legs hard, trying to break free from the sand.
At this time, not far away, a fat figure slowly emerged. It was Fatty Wang. He stood up shakily, cursing non-stop. "Pooh, pooh, pooh! Damn, a mouth full of sand."
Fatty Wang saw Ning Wei's predicament and ran over, stretched out his fat hands, grabbed Ning Wei's arm, and pulled him out with force. With the combined efforts of the two, Ning Wei finally broke free from the sand pile, and both of them were exhausted and panting.
"Fatty, give me a hand. Bah, bah, bah, my mouth is full of sand."
Ning Wei gasped and looked in another direction, where there was a pile of sand moving slightly.
"Zheng Tong? Is he okay?" Fatty Wang was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and ran over quickly.
Under the sand, Zheng Tong was also struggling. His voice was weak but full of determination. "Anyway, I'm still fucking alive."
"Fatty, give me a hand too. Bah, bah." It was Wu Jianjun.
With the help of the two, Zheng Tong and Wu Jianjun also escaped from the sand pile. They supported each other and stood up, looking at the terrifyingly silent desert around them, with an inexplicable fear in their hearts.
"You two, hurry up and check on the rest of the people and see if anyone is injured." Ning Wei said in a deep voice. Although his voice was hoarse, it was full of unquestionable majesty.
The four people immediately dispersed and began to look for traces of others on the sand. Their heartbeats accelerated, because in this dead desert, accidents could happen at any moment. Fortunately, after searching for a while, they found that the others were also safe and sound, but they all suffered minor injuries to varying degrees.
Everyone sat together, checking each other's injuries and comforting each other. In this desolate desert, they were like a lone boat, supporting each other in the wind and waves.
The night slowly descended like a black curtain, shrouding the whole world in endless darkness. Savar's deep eyes were now staring into the distance, where the outline of the Gobi Desert could be vaguely seen, like a dead ocean, ruthlessly devouring all life around it.
Ning Wei stood quietly beside Savar, his eyes firm and sharp, like a sword that could penetrate this barren land. His fingers unconsciously drew circles on the sand, and each circle seemed to gather his inner strength and determination.
"Savall, is the direction we saw during the day really the Gobi Desert in the center of the desert?" Ning Wei's voice echoed in the empty desert with a heavy feeling.
Savar nodded slightly to show his agreement. His voice was low and hoarse. "Well, it should be that direction..." However, he suddenly stopped in the middle of his words, as if he had some unspeakable concerns.
Zheng Tong's brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes full of worry. "What on earth happened in the Gobi Desert? Where is Yuemin still?" His voice revealed a trace of uncontrollable fear and uneasiness, as if he would completely collapse in the next moment.
The desert night wind whistled past like a sharp arrow, taking away not only the voices of the people but also the only glimmer of hope left in their hearts.
At this moment, no one spoke and there was dead silence all around. The silence was like a heavy mountain, weighing heavily on everyone's heart.
In fact, everyone knew very well that if there really were people in that barren Gobi Desert at that time, they would probably have been in danger of death and could not escape the disaster.
Ning Wei took a deep breath, and his originally exhausted eyes suddenly became unusually firm and resolute. "We must speed up our pace tomorrow. After I send you to a safe area, I will immediately return to find the captain." His tone was not high and exciting, but between the lines there was a sense of indestructible power, as if it could pierce through this endless dark night.
Zheng Tong clenched his teeth tightly, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes. "Or... why don't we just turn around and go back now? After all, we can't abandon him easily!" Although his voice trembled slightly, the resoluteness conveyed in it was so clearly audible.
"Yes! Why don't we go back and look for it right now..." Fatty Wang and others echoed, expressing their agreement with what Zheng Tong said.
Ning Wei shook his head, his eyes revealing an unquestionable firmness. "The captain ordered me to send you out of the desert, and this is my mission. I cannot disobey his orders." His words revealed an unquestionable majesty that made it impossible to refute.
The night spread out over the desert like thick ink, and the strong wind shuttled through the sand dunes like a wild beast, rolling up gusts of yellow sand to form spectacular sand walls.
Zhong Yuemin in the space rubbed his sleepy eyes, and everything in front of him became blurry and unfamiliar. He felt as if his whole body was pierced by thousands of needles at the same time, and every part was extremely painful.
Zhong Yuemin lay in the darkness, the hunger in his stomach burning his internal organs mercilessly like a raging flame, and every breath of air seemed to carry a bone-chilling chill.
Zhong Yuemin laughed at himself, his voice so weak that it seemed like it would be swallowed by the darkness at any time. "Damn, this injury is really serious! I almost lost my life. I'm so hungry. I don't know how long I have been unconscious?"
Zhong Yuemin struggled to get up. There was silence all around him, only the sound of his own breathing and heartbeat echoing. He found the food he had stored and began to eat it voraciously, as if he wanted to devour all his hunger.
After eating and drinking, Zhong Yuemin felt as if he had been pulled back from the brink of death and was rejuvenated.
"Qingluan, how long has my brother been unconscious?"
"About ten hours." Qingluan's voice was calm and firm, as if it could give people strength even in this darkness.
"That's fine, it's just me. If it were someone else, it would definitely be here."
Zhong Yuemin smiled smugly, but then he remembered the snake's self-explosion and started to curse. "Damn it, that snake is nothing. Why did you self-explode? At least you should say hello to me, right? I'm lucky I reacted quickly. If I was a little slower, I would have turned to ashes."
"Zhong Yuemin, stop bragging about yourself. Why don't you go out and see what's going on outside? The explosion was so powerful that if they buried you underground, you would be in trouble."
Zhong Yuemin slapped his thigh and stood up in a hurry. However, due to his violent movements, he suddenly pulled the wound, and he grimaced in pain. "Fuck, ouch, it hurts so much."
"Can't you take it easy? Your wound hasn't healed yet."
Zhong Yuemin smiled bitterly. "Qingluan, you are so mean. You didn't inform my buddies earlier and let me brag to you here." Qingluan obviously didn't want to pay attention to him and didn't say a word.
When Zhong Yuemin came out of the space, he was so shocked by the scene that he opened his mouth wide. He found himself standing on the edge of a huge deep pit, surrounded by steep cliffs, and it was bottomless.
The starlight and moonlight were blocked by the high cliffs, leaving only a faint light shining through the gaps, barely illuminating the sand under his feet.
A chill ran from the soles of Zhong Yuemin's feet to his heart, and he instantly realized that he was in an unknown and dangerous place.
Zhong Yuemin didn't care about the pain in his body and only wanted to escape from this abyss as soon as possible.
Zhong Yuemin held on to the sand on the cliff tightly, his fingers were rubbed by the rough sand and hurt. He dared not stop, because there was a voice in his heart that kept telling him: he must climb up as soon as possible, otherwise once the sandstorm came, he would be trapped here and become a victim of this desert.
Zhong Yuemin climbed up with difficulty, and every move was accompanied by the sliding of sand and the shaking of his body. He felt his physical strength was rapidly depleted, sweat soaked his clothes, and pain came from all parts of his body. But the desire to survive in his heart made him unable to give up, so he gritted his teeth and continued to climb up.
At this moment, a breeze blew by, bringing the sign of a sandstorm in the distance. The wind was mixed with sand, which hit his face painfully. Zhong Yuemin's heart tightened, and he knew he had to speed up. He took a deep breath and leaped up with all his strength. At this moment, he seemed to hear the sound of his own heartbeat, rapid and powerful.
No one knew how long it had been, but when the sun rose from the east and golden sunlight spread across the earth, Zhong Yuemin finally exhausted his last bit of strength and grabbed the edge of the cliff.
Zhong Yuemin panted and used up his last bit of strength to pull himself up. When he finally stood on the top of the cliff, Zhong Yuemin could no longer hold on and lay directly on the sand, gasping for breath.
At this moment, Zhong Yuemin felt an unprecedented sense of relief. He looked at the vast desert in the distance, and an inexplicable feeling welled up in his heart. He didn't know how he had spent this long night, nor how he had climbed out of that abyss. But he knew that he had survived the most difficult moment.
The night gradually faded away, a faint golden color appeared on the horizon, and the sun struggled to rise from the desert horizon, casting the first ray of light on Zhong Yuemin.
Zhong Yuemin lay on the top of the cliff, sweat and sand mixed together, sticking to his skin, but he had no time to care about it at the moment. He was panting, his eyes flashing with the light of surviving a disaster.
The top of the cliff is a flat desert. In the distance, a few tenacious cacti are dotted among the yellow sand, like lamps of life in this desolate place.
Zhong Yuemin struggled to sit up, he felt sore all over, but more of a kind of indescribable relief. He looked up at the sky, the sun had risen completely, the golden sunlight filled the earth, dispelling the cold and darkness of the night.
Zhong Yuemin lay there, as if in a corner forgotten by time. He closed his eyes, trying to calm the shock and anxiety in his heart. After a long time, he struggled to sit up, his throat was so dry that it felt like it was burned by fire.
Zhong Yuemin picked up the kettle and drank some water. His dry throat finally felt a little moistened. Then, he took out some dry food and fruit from the space and started eating.
After a period of rest, Zhong Yuemin finally recovered some strength. With trembling legs, he struggled to stand up with all his strength.
His eyes slowly swept around, and the scene in front of him made him dumbfounded - Kongming City had now become a dilapidated ruin! The city walls collapsed like broken walls, and the buildings also overturned into piles of broken bricks and tiles. The originally flat and wide streets were broken into bottomless gullies.
Zhong Yuemin couldn't believe his eyes. The city had suffered such a devastating blow, and the culprit for all this tragedy was the giant snake!
The power released by its self-explosion was in no way inferior to the power of a nuclear missile. This thrilling explosion not only caused a violent tremor in the entire Gobi Desert, but was also the direct cause of the catastrophic disaster that befell Kongming City.
In the blink of an eye, this once glorious city was reduced to ashes, as if it had evaporated from the face of the earth, leaving behind only desolation and deathly silence.
Zhong Yuemin took a deep breath, and the air mixed with dust and smoke that entered his nose made him feel even more depressed. He knew that it would not take long before this place would gradually turn into a vast desert, and the strong wind would ruthlessly blow away all traces of existence, leaving only endless loneliness and despair.
Thinking of this, Zhong Yuemin couldn't help but sigh: Maybe this is not a bad thing. After all, this place is unknown and unknown. Now buried deep in the desert, maybe this is his best destination...
The sun was blazing in the sky, and every inch of the desert was emitting a blazing breath. Zhong Yuemin rode a camel released from space, standing on the endless yellow sand, ready to bid farewell to this land where he had stayed for a short time.
However, when he actually sat on the camel and prepared to set off, he fell into unprecedented confusion. The yellow sand around him rolled up and down like a huge maze, making him completely lose his sense of direction.
"Qingluan, Qingluan, which direction should I go?"
"Move forward."
"Are you sure?" Zhong Yuemin felt that Qingluan was just trying to fool him, even though he had no evidence. He didn't care, he just left here first.
Zhong Yuemin walked very fast alone, almost without any rest, and kept moving forward in the desert. His steps were firm and powerful, as if he was waging a silent battle with the desert.
In order to ensure the camel's physical strength, he took out some food and water from the space from time to time to feed the camel. Under Zhong Yuemin's care, the camel also became very obedient and followed his pace in the desert.
In this way, Zhong Yuemin and his camel left a series of deep footprints in the desert. They walked tirelessly until they disappeared in the vast yellow sand.
