Chapter 330 The Law of Sandstorms

Shi Jiaojiao waited for a while beside the cave, thinking that if anything unexpected happened she would still have time to remedy the situation.

However, the rumbling sound just now seemed to be playing a trick on everyone. When everyone stood here, the sound disappeared.

The four of them waited here for about twenty minutes, and only after making sure there was no aftermath did they plan to go back.

On the way back, Shi Jiaojiao thought of something and turned and walked towards the tomb where the brother and sister were.

The stones in the cave cannot be moved, so the brother and sister must give up the idea of ​​exploring the cave entrance in advance.

It is not difficult to do this. The boy is smart and wants to survive. At least he will always listen to himself in the ancient tomb.

And if they wanted to go to the cave, they would inevitably pass by the tomb where they were.

As soon as Shi Jiaojiao reached the door of the tomb, she heard low conversations inside, and then she seemed to hear footsteps, and the room fell into silence again.

Shi Jiaojiao didn't want to explore other people's privacy. After entering, she looked straight at the boy and said, "Did you hear the sound just now?"

The boy nodded but said nothing.

Shi Jiaojiao said bluntly: "We don't know how long the sandstorm will last, but it seems that the ancient tomb is still safe. Your injuries will not heal easily, so don't go out during this period of time. Take good care of your injuries. When you are well, you can leave with us."

While speaking, Shi Jiaojiao kept staring into the boy's eyes.

The boy's eyes flickered and he immediately understood the meaning behind this sentence.

Don't run around, you can take him and his sister away later.

If you run around, there's no certainty about what the outcome will be.

So there are still secrets in the ancient tomb, secrets that cannot be discovered by myself and my sister.

The boy curled his lips. He had no interest in secrets at the moment. To him, secrets were more like a death warrant.

All he wanted was to live with his sister.

He raised his head and said word by word in a decisive tone: "I understand, sister."

He understood what she meant and would obey her.

Shi Jiaojiao was satisfied with his attitude, even though she could easily imprison the brother and sister in this tomb.

But if possible, she didn't want to do that to them.

But that night, the boy and the girl did not sleep on the cold and hard ground, but on an inflatable mattress.

The girl's eyes sparkled. She poked the mattress with her little finger, then looked up at her brother and said, "It's so soft."

The boy rubbed his sister's head.

He knew that this was a reward for his tact.

But he was really overthinking it. Shi Jiaojiao just felt sorry for the two children, especially the boy who was covered in injuries.

He sent the Buddha away, even the medicine was sent away, not to mention an inflatable mattress. There were quite a few of these things in the space, and she couldn't use them for the time being anyway, so she might as well give them to someone in need.

That night, several people in the ancient tomb had trouble sleeping.

The boy was worried about the future of himself and his sister. Shi Jiaojiao and the other three were afraid that the sandstorm would come again in the middle of the night, and they couldn't wait to know the situation outside the next day.

In the end, there was only one little girl who fell into a deep sleep on the soft inflatable mattress and had her first sweet dream after her parents left.

The next day, Shi Jiaojiao heard the alarm clock while she was half asleep and half awake. She hurriedly woke everyone up and then hurried towards the cave.

When they arrived in front of the cave, the four of them first listened carefully to the noise outside.

Maybe the cave was blocked too tightly by rocks. Not only could Wang Jia and Tang Wei not hear any sound, but even Shi Jiaojiao and Mu Ci, who had the most sensitive senses, could not detect any sound.

Mu Ci looked at the cave: "Put the stones into the space first, and slow down."

Shi Jiaojiao nodded. If they wanted to know the situation outside, they had to clear the cave.

She could have collected all the stones in the cave at once, but for safety reasons, it was safer to do it bit by bit.

After all, no one knows whether a cave destroyed by a tornado and sandstorm will collapse after the stones are taken away.

Shi Jiaojiao put the stones into the space bit by bit, and the other three followed behind her. Mu Ci held her arm tightly all the time to ensure that he could pull her away as quickly as possible if she encountered any danger.

However, they were almost at the entrance of the cave, and the imagined accident did not happen.

Wang Jia's face showed joy. Does this prove that their previous guess was correct?

Shi Jiaojiao collected the stones faster and faster, and finally arrived at the entrance of the cave, with only the huge rocks that were blocking the outside of the cave at the beginning left.

She didn't need to do anything this time because yesterday's tornado and sandstorm had already blown the rocks out of place.

Half of the cave was exposed, and the dim reddish sunlight came in from outside, shining on everyone.

Wind and sand continued to pour in from the half-cut cave and blew onto everyone's faces.

But today's wind is much softer than yesterday. Although it still makes everyone grimaces, at least it won't kill anyone.

Shi Jiaojiao took advantage of the gap above the cave and leaned out.

If she had not seen the nearby scene with her own eyes before, she would even suspect that they were in a desert.

There was yellow sand everywhere, covering the sky and the ground, which contrasted with the dim sunlight and seemed even more desolate.

There was no howling wind outside, no tornado of sand sweeping up the yellow sand, everything was so peaceful.

However, she was pulled in by Mu Ci after just taking a look.

Just because there is no danger now doesn’t mean there won’t be danger later. You should never ignore your own safety at any time.

Wang Jia also went out to take a look, and came back with a look of surprise: "The sandstorm has really disappeared."

Shi Jiaojiao nodded, and her expression relaxed a lot.

But the calmness of this day does not change anything. They still have to wait in the ancient tomb for the sandstorm to end completely.

The only advantage is that there are fewer dangers and the pressure in the ancient tomb is much less.

If every day is like yesterday, it will really be a question whether the ancient tomb can survive until the sandstorm ends.

The observation was over and everyone was about to leave when Shi Jiaojiao suddenly remembered something and waved her hands outward.

Because of the obstruction of yellow sand, Wang Jia and Tang Wei could not see clearly.

Wang Jia looked puzzled: "What kind of ceremony is this? Is there any particularity?"

Shi Jiaojiao said helplessly: "No, I just don't want the ashes of those beasts to pollute the environment in space."

Tang Wei added: "Does this count as grinding bones and scattering ashes?"

Wang Jia had a look of disgust on his face: "It would be too easy for them to be crushed to ashes. People like this should be subjected to all ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty."

Shi Jiaojiao didn't say anything. She piled the rocks that were blown away by the tornado and sandstorm yesterday back into the cave entrance, and then used the huge rocks in the space to block the entire cave.

Now, they just have to wait for the sandstorm to end.

After returning from the cave, the four of them went to the tomb of the brother and sister and took a look at the boy's injuries.
