Chapter 269: The Giant in the Sandstorm
As he was speaking, a violent gust of wind suddenly sounded from far away.
"Here I come."
As soon as Chu Qiao finished speaking, a yellow wall of wind swept her in the face.
In the camera, a cloud of sand was rolling up.
Only then did everyone believe Chu Qiao's words.
[Oh my god, there really is a sandstorm.]
[Master Chu, run quickly.]
【Hide quickly.】
Chu Qiao saw a poplar tree swaying in the wind. She took out a rope and ran towards the tree madly.
"Snap" sound,
Sand whizzed past, and Chu Qiao's forehead was hit by a stone, leaving a red mark.
Chu Qiao wiped his forehead, fortunately, there was no bleeding.
She tied the rope around her waist and quickly protected the poplar forest, not daring to let go, as if she did, the trees would be blown away by the wind.
Chu Qiao slowly pulled the rope with one hand and tied the knot bit by bit. It took him a full ten minutes to finally tie the knot and bind it tightly to the poplar tree.
Feeling his body had stabilized, Chu Qiao immediately took off his coat and covered his face.
The drone flew into the leaves, its camera pointed at Chu Qiao.
[Master Chu, why are you covering your face? ]
[Master Chu finally cherishes her own face? ]
[Even though it's dangerous now, I still want to laugh.]
[Master Chu, stop covering your face and save yourself.]
Chu Qiao only showed his two eyes, and the rest of his body was covered tightly.
Chu Qiao shouted through his clothes, "The air is full of gravel and sand right now. Once the sand enters the nasal cavity and blocks the mouth and nose, it can cause suffocation and death. Even if it doesn't suffocate you, it will absorb moisture from the body and cause dehydration."
After Chu Qiao finished speaking, he stopped talking.
He needed to concentrate on dealing with the storm. At any moment, a stone might appear in the wind and knock him unconscious.
As he was speaking, the wind blew even stronger, and the branches of the poplar trees broke and flew up in the wind, blowing towards Chu Qiao.
Chu Qiao pulled the rope, turned her body around, and faced backwards, with the branches hitting her back and head.
Fortunately, I had thick clothes wrapped around my head.
Chu Qiao didn't know whether to be thankful or smile bitterly, because her back condition was not optimistic. It felt like a whip was whipping her body, again and again, without stopping.
Chu Qiao could only endure it. Once the ropes were untied and swept away by the storm, the situation would only get worse.
She opened her eyes slightly through the gap in her clothes and observed the situation outside at any time.
It was getting darker and darker all around, and this storm wouldn't last long.
The drone sways in the wind, which is a disadvantage after the upgrade. Although it is more invisible than before, it can be easily blown away due to its reduced weight.
Chu Qiao stretched out his hand: "Come back."
He grabbed the tiny drone that looked like a bee.
The live broadcast room suddenly lost the picture, and Chu Qiao stuffed the drone into his chest, exposing the camera, so that everyone could see the power of the sandstorm without the drone being blown away.
The sandstorm grew more and more violent. Chu Qiao could even feel the pain caused by the sand and stones rubbing against his fingers.
The exposed parts of my body were rubbed, and at first it was only slightly painful. Later, more and more stones hit my body, and the scrapes and bruises became more and more, and the pain came one after another.
Chu Qiao tried his best to hide behind a tree, but he was still not spared.
"Something's wrong." Chu Qiao murmured, and she felt her body tilted.
She could hardly open her eyes, so she could only feel her way to check if the rope was loose, just like feeling the Braille on an elevator. Chu Qiao held her breath and concentrated.
There's no problem with the rope, so what's going on now?
The poplar tree was shaking more and more violently, and every time a stronger wind came, it made a creaking sound.
The sky was still dark, even worse, but Chu Qiao could clearly feel the back of her head facing down, her face towards the sky, and pieces of remaining leaves hitting her face.
Chu Qiao was stunned for a moment, and the numb feeling all over her body made her brain relax.
She suddenly opened her eyes and looked around, risking her eyes being scratched by sand.
Chu Qiao was frightened when he saw this. The entire poplar tree was uprooted and was about to fall down, and the side where he was tied to the poplar tree was the side that touched the ground.
Chu Qiao smiled bitterly. He had wanted the poplar tree to block the wind for him, but ended up being the scapegoat.
Chu Qiao's head was facing downwards and was about to hit the ground.
Chu Qiao untied the knot, and as the rope loosened, she immediately fell due to gravity, while the poplar tree only fell slowly because it was restrained by a few roots.
Chu Qiao rolled to the side to prevent the poplar tree from falling on him.
But without the protection of the poplar tree, she was almost swept up by the sandstorm the moment she rolled away.
The howling wind seemed to be mocking the insignificance of human beings. Chu Qiao's only thought was to avoid being thrown onto the rocks.
The sandstorm was like a play, sweeping Chu Qiao around in the air.
Sometimes up, sometimes down.
If Chu Qiao had not undergone rigorous training, he would have been dizzy and resigned himself to his fate.
In the blur, Chu Qiao saw an outline.
Chu Qiao was carried by the wind, getting closer and closer to the huge monster.
A huge body flew towards Chu Qiao.
Chu Qiao didn't care about anything and just opened his mouth to hug the black shadow tightly, and fell to the ground with the black shadow.
"evil--"
Chu Qiao frowned. Even through her coat, she could smell the stench of decay from this sand-covered thing.
She was suddenly stunned. This smell... was that of a corpse.
Chu Qiao opened his eyes, and the sand in the wind rubbed his eyeballs so hard that they hurt. Chu Qiao endured the pain and looked at the corpse covered with sand.
"It's you again." Chu Qiao's eyes suddenly turned red. It was that camel, the camel that was completely used by Chu Qiao after its death.
Unexpectedly, she saw the camel again in this way.
Unexpectedly, the camel saved himself again.
Chu Qiao climbed behind the camel. The weight of the dead camel was still not to be underestimated. Chu Qiao used it as his own windbreak.
The wind was howling in the air, but its momentum had slowed down.
Chu Qiao leaned against the camel, and the fishy smell didn't seem so bad anymore. He closed his eyes, shakily took out the water cup, and replenished himself with some water.
Finally, a ray of light appeared in the distant sky. Chu Qiao, who was able to see the sky, couldn't help but curl his lips. The sandstorm was finally over.
Chu Qiao didn't care where she was blown by the wind at the moment. She only had one thought in mind, which was to find a way to bury the camel's body.
Chu Qiao found the place where the poplar tree was just now, but the tree was gone. No one knew where it was blown away. Chu Qiao put the camel in the pit.
"As the saying goes, the best place to rest is in the ground. Camels belong in the desert. I hope you like this place."
Chu Qiao sprinkled mud on the camel's body bit by bit and buried it.
