Living on a deserted island, the cold female president regards me as king

Outside the tent, apart from me, only the guards took turns keeping watch outside.

They talked and laughed, looking very relaxed.

I'm curious, these guards who are traveling with us don't seem to know that weird video.

They seemed to be kept in the dark, completely unaware of the danger of the destination of this trip.

"Come on one?"

I was staring at the sunset, but Wang Gang, the captain of the guard, came up behind me at some point. He grinned at me, showing his die yellow from smoking for a long time, and handed me a cigarette.

I haven't smoked this thing for a long time, but I have no intention of rejecting this guy.

This short man, after communicating with him for a long time, only then did he realize that he is not so unfriendly to strangers on the surface, he is actually a very talkative and straightforward person.

"I've been in this damn place for four years."

Wang Gang lit a cigarette and took a deep puff, sat next to me, and then slowly exhaled wisps of smoke, "I'm still the same me, just the dozens of brothers I just met, and now only those two are left."

As he spoke, he pointed to the two people who were watching the night not far away, and his words naturally revealed a bit of melancholy.

"And what about your other brothers?"

I can't help being a little curious.

Hearing my question, Wang Gang's right hand holding the cigarette stopped slightly, and the corner of his mouth twitched a few times, and then he bit the butt of the cigarette and took a deep breath, then plunged the cigarette end into the sand and extinguished it, and then said in a deep voice, "They're all dead, many of them were eaten by the damn sand!"

Sand, have you eaten?I could tell that he didn't just mean what he said.

But when I continued to ask, he didn't want to say more about this matter, he just told me that if I recite a little bit, I will meet.

Then he told me some of his past, which sounded very popular, and there was a sense of truth between the lines.

Time passed slowly, and the temperature began to plummet.

The temperature difference between day and night in the Taklamakan Desert is extremely large, with a maximum of over [-] degrees Celsius.

I'm used to the heat during the day, but when the temperature dropped, I felt a little cold.

Seeing this, Wang Gang just smiled and told me to get used to it.

I didn't sleep very well that night, and I don't know if it's because I'm not used to the geographical environment of the desert or something else.

When the early morning light rose, the sand dunes within sight were covered with a layer of golden light.

Before departure, Yang Hui and Wang Gang stood together, holding a map, chatting with the guide we invited.

Our guide is a native of the local people, over 50 years old with gray temples, tanned skin, and speaks an incomprehensible minority dialect.

He spoke as if he was reciting scriptures, and his lips were turning quickly.

But Wang Gang and Yang Hui were able to talk to him fluently.

After confirming the route, we continue to set off

We have a long way to go. The place where the advance team was wiped out is probably in the middle of the desert, and the Taklamakan Desert is nearly [-] kilometers long from east to west. It took a week to arrive.

The first few days were considered safe. Although the soft sand dunes were not easy to walk on, nothing major happened.

At most, a few people stumbled and slid down the sand dunes, wasting a little time.

Four days have passed. Although each of us has been darkened, our spirits are still good. At a glance, there are endless sand dunes in the front, back, left, and right. Some visual fatigue.

Compared with the guards who chatted a few words from time to time, the eight of us seemed much quieter.

Maybe it was because the dull journey for a few days was too comfortable, our tension at the beginning has almost disappeared, and the atmosphere has gradually become more relaxed.

However, accidents often happen at such moments.

On this night, something happened suddenly.

"Why so noisy?"

The temperature tonight is surprisingly low, I got into the warm sleeping bag early, and the tiredness of the day's hiking soon came to my mind, but just when I was about to fall asleep, there was a sudden noise outside, and a man's loud voice The sound of scolding.

I glanced at Huohou who was sleeping on my right, and he also woke up.

I turned on the flashlight and saw him looking at me suspiciously.

"what happened?"

I shrugged at him as if I didn't know either.

When I walked out of the tent and saw Wang Gang, I realized that someone was missing. It was a young man in his 20s and one of the guards. It was his turn to keep watch tonight, but in the middle of the night, someone found him. gone.

"Find it quickly! Be careful when you look for it! Report any situation immediately!"

"Yes!"

The rest of the guards scattered in all directions, but after searching around, they found nothing. That person seemed to have evaporated from the world.

"Report to the captain, I didn't find it!"

Wang Gang's face became more and more ugly, and his fists were tightly clenched.

"Oh shit!"

After all, he is a person who has experienced a lot.

In the end, he swallowed his breath, waved to the team members, told them to return to their respective posts, and told them to be more careful.

However, after I casually glanced at the remaining players, I felt something was wrong.

In a team of 20 people, one was missing, so there should be nineteen left.

"Wait a moment!"

I immediately stopped the team members who were planning to return to their respective positions loudly. My behavior also made Wang Gang look over. He looked at me suspiciously, waiting for me to give him a satisfactory answer.

I was not in a hurry to answer him, and turned my attention to the players.

Sixteen, seventeen... plus captain Wang Gang, there are eighteen people in total.

In other words, just now, before we knew it, we lost another team member!
"Where's Haozi? Why hasn't Haozi disappeared?"

"Yeah, I saw him just now!"

The team members also noticed something was wrong and turned their heads to discuss.

All of a sudden, two players were lost, and they disappeared so quietly.

Almost everyone's face was downcast, an invisible and intangible gray haze firmly pressed on each of our hearts, and no one knew whether this weird thing would happen to them in the next moment.

For a moment, I wondered if we had encountered the weird events that occurred when the advance team was destroyed.

But on the contrary, I dismissed this idea again, because we were still some distance from the point where the advance party was completely wiped out.

And when the team members were killed before, at least they could resist and scream a few times.

"Leave two people on the spot to watch the night, and the rest will return to the camp. Two groups of two will take turns to rest, weapons are loaded, and they are ready to fight at any time!"

"Yes!"

Wang Gang was very calm in dealing with this kind of thing, and when he gave orders, he was like an emotionless machine.

But I still saw the pain he was holding back from under his resolute face.

I wanted to try to comfort him, but he seemed to see what I was thinking, and shook his head at me with a wry smile before I spoke.

Seeing this, I can only go back to the tent first.

After the strange incident happened just now, none of us felt sleepy, and our eyes were wide open even when we were lying down.

But no one thought that even so, it still couldn't prevent strange things from happening.
