Across the Sky From the Stop of Time

  Chapter 394 Desert Marching Ants

  When Hao Shuai returned to the place where everyone took refuge, everyone showed incredible eyes. They knew that Hao Shuai was strong, but they didn't expect him to be so strong that he could fight against the mighty power of nature with his body.

  After the shock, after seeing the two gazelles in Hao Shuai's hands, they were all very happy.

  In these days, everyone eats dried meat and dry food every day. They have long been tired of eating, and the birds have faded out of their mouths. Now that there is fresh meat to eat, even Professor Chen has looked forward to it.

  Only An Liman warned Hao Shuai seriously, saying that the animals in the desert are all Hu Da's people, and let him release the gazelle, otherwise Hu Da will blame him.

"Free life? Don't even think about it." When Hao Shuai heard about the release, Fatty Wang exploded before Hao Shuai said anything. He took the yellow sheep from Hao Shuai's hand and called Chu Jian and Sa Dipeng to come. On the one hand, he directly killed the sheep and skinned it.

  Hao Shuai couldn't help but smile at An Liman's words, what about Hu Da? In the land of the flower growers, only the five-star red flag can control Hao Shuai, and the others are all in vain.

   By the way, gazelle seems to be a national first-class protected animal?

  He killed two of them?

   Is the plot particularly serious?

   Doesn’t it have to be more than five years but less than ten years?

  Thinking of this, Hao Shuai couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Will he be approached by the **** of crabs?

  However, Hao Shuai suddenly thought that it is only 1986 now, and the "Wild Animal Protection Law" seems to have been promulgated and implemented in 1989, so Hao Shuai felt at ease.

   Just as Hao Shuai was wandering, Xueli Yang and Hu Bayi came over and said, "I just found some wolf footprints in the corner."

   "Don't be nervous, at least it's safe until the black sandstorm is over. As for who threatens who after it's over, it's still a problem." Hao Shuai waved his hand, indicating that there is no problem.

"That's right, this abandoned city is a shelter given by Hu Da to the animals in the desert. We haven't seen it. Behind those broken houses and broken walls, there may be many sand wolves, yellow sheep, and sand leopards hiding behind those broken houses... A big sandstorm is blowing in the sky, and the animals on the ground are terrified, and no one can care about the other. After the sandstorm passes, you may find that the wolf and gazelle are hiding in the same room. At that time, the wolf should Show your teeth, if it's a gazelle, you should stick out its horns." An Liman said.

   "Old Hu, you and I went out to bring in water, food and sleeping bags, and you know when this black sandstorm will end."

   After finishing speaking, Hao Shuai led Hu Bayi to the camel in a strong wind, and brought the things back.

  When Hao Shuai came back, Fatty Wang and the others had already disposed of the gazelle, one of which was already roasting on the fire, and the other was waiting for Hao Shuai to bring the iron pot so that it could be stewed.

  As time went by, the refuge room gradually smelled a burst of aroma, which is the smell of cumin roasted lamb mixed with fresh mutton soup.

   "Gulu~"

   "Gulu~"

   "Gudu~"

   "Gudu~"

   The sound of swallowing saliva and stomach growling sounded one after another in the shelter.

   "You can eat it."

  As Hao Shuai's voice fell, everyone consciously filled a bowl of mutton soup with their bowls and chopsticks, and ate a piece of roasted mutton with gusto.

"It's so delicious. I didn't expect that I, Wang Kaixuan, could eat mutton soup and roasted mutton in the desert. No one would believe me when I told it." Fatty Wang said, taking a mouthful of mutton and a mouthful of white wine, which was specially brought in for use. Warming.

   "If Daoist Hao didn't save me, I would really report to Marx this time." Professor Chen thanked him sincerely after drinking half a bowl of mutton soup in one go.

   Others drank mutton soup and grilled mutton, and looked at Hao Shuai gratefully.

   After drinking and eating, the group chatted around the campfire.

  At this moment, Hao Aiguo pointed to Ye Yixin's hand and said, "Xiao Xiao... Xiao Ye, what is in your hand?"

Hearing Hao Aiguo's question, Ye Yixin looked down and saw that what she thought was a wooden stick in her hand was actually a dead bone. She was so frightened that she dropped the bone in her hand and jumped up. Huarong shouted palely: "Bone... Bones, there are so many more here! So many bones!"

  Hao Aiguo turned around very calmly, glanced at the bones on the ground, and criticized: "Xiao Ye, you can't do this, we are archaeologists, are we still afraid of bones?"

  Ye Yixin apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Hao, I... I just didn't expect... there would be human bones in it, and I wasn't prepared enough."

   "This seems to be really a human bone?" Hao Aiguo was used to seeing corpses, so he dug out a few thick bones from the yellow sand without fear.

  Hu Bayi said with some doubts: "Professor Hao, these bones look a little strange."

   "What's so strange about this? They are indeed human bones." Hao Aiguo thought that what Hu Bayi said was that these were not human bones.

   "The bones and flesh of the dead in the desert will not rot, and they are usually dried naturally and become mummies." Hu Bayi explained.

   "But there's not even a bit of flesh on the white bones." Xue Liyang continued with a serious face.

   "Maybe it was eaten up by wolves!"

   Perhaps because he was used to such situations in the desert, An Liman said indifferently, without any waves in his tone.

   "What a wolf, it was eaten by ants. Under the sand is the old nest of desert army ants." Hao Shuai, who was still eating and drinking, told the truth directly.

   "Ants gnawed? God stick, what kind of ants have you seen that can eat people?" The uneducated Fatty Wang didn't believe it.

Not only Fatty Wang didn't believe it, but everyone else at the scene looked at Hao Shuai in disbelief. Only Shirley Yang, who is a photographer of National Geographic magazine and can be described as well-informed, seemed to think of something at this time, showing a hint of thought. look.

   "It's terrible to be uneducated, fat man, read more books in the future." Hao Shuai looked at Fatty Wang contemptuously, then turned to Shirley Yang and said, "You popularize scientific knowledge for them."

   "Are you talking about desert army ants?" Xue Liyang's face changed, and she looked at Hao Shuai, not sure.

   "Bingo, congratulations on getting the answer right. This is your prize." Hao Shuai took out a can of Coke and put it in Shirley Yang's hand.

If it was a minute ago, Shirley Yang might be happy to drink a can of Coke in the desert, but now she doesn't even have time to think about where Hao Shuai's Coke came from, and she said with a frightened face: "Really! Are they desert army ants?"

   "Hey! I said what are you two talking about? What are desert army ants?" The ignorant and fearless Fatty Wang muttered.

Shirley Yang, who had already got the answer from Hao Shuai's expression, explained to everyone: "Desert marching ants are a kind of ants with black body and blood-red tail. One is as big as a knuckle, because they are highly disciplined." It is named after the ability to coordinate and organize. Wherever the desert marching ants pass, it is like locusts crossing the border, and no grass will grow. Humans and animals will be gnawed to the bones, which is terrible. The most terrible thing is the formic acid in their mouths. Neurotoxins that paralyze animals."

   "Oh my god, it's so scary, I can't stay here anymore, run away?!" Hearing Shirley Yang say such horror, Fatty Wang, who has always been fearless, yelled.

   Not to mention intellectuals like Professor Chen, they looked around tremblingly, as if they were worried that desert army ants would suddenly emerge from the sand.
