Chapter 38
The Dust Storm

The next day, after packing their luggage and desert essentials, they entered the desert.

"How do you feel?"

Bai Tian Yu asked Shirley Yang, who was taking photos to the side.

Nodding, Shirley Yang occasionally took a beautiful photo, excitedly exclaiming.

"It's so beautiful! I've always wanted to come to the desert, and now I've finally gotten my wish!"

"Look how beautiful it is!"

"Click!"

She took a picture of Bai Tian Yu without warning, Shirley Yang felt a little smug.

"If you want to take a picture of me, you don't have to be so sneaky, I'm always available!"

Feeling her gaze, Bai Tian Yu teased.

"Who wants to take a picture of you, narcissist!"

Rolling her eyes, Shirley Yang mumbled.

"What do you think these two are here for?"

Lao Hu and Wang Fatty, following behind, had been eating a steady stream of dog food all the way, they were about to burst.

They were really defeated!

"Come on, Fatty, don't you envy them a little?"

"You should find someone too, don't wander around all the time!"

Lao Hu also felt that Bai Tian Yu was right, he should quickly find someone to settle down with, he was getting old.

"Hey, you find someone first!"

"Don't just talk about me, you're also a bachelor!"

Wang Fatty wasn't happy about it, he shouted loudly.

Thus, the five of them rode camels on the desert, bickering and joking along the way.

A few days later.

An Li Man looked at the sky, feeling a bit strange and solemn, he turned to look at Bai Tian Yu.

"What's wrong, Old Man?"

Bai Tian Yu walked over in confusion, and at the same time looked at the sky.

There's a saying: "Morning glow doesn't go out, evening glow travels a thousand miles!"

The sky seemed to be like that right now, Bai Tian Yu knew what was going on.

Turning around, Bai Tian Yu shouted loudly.

"It might be windy, everyone be careful!"

"Get ready to run for your lives!"

Since the team didn't have any elderly, weak, sick, or disabled members, they were completely different from the archaeological team, the only elder was An Li Man, who was most familiar with the desert.

This old guy wasn't ordinary, if things went wrong, he would be the first to run.

Wang Fatty and Lao Hu looked at each other, their expressions serious as they replied.

"Understood!"

However, after a while, Wang Fatty couldn't help but complain.

"Hey, what's the old man doing?"

"Is he in a hurry or not?"

It wasn't that Wang Fatty was being unreasonable, it was that An Li Man, for some unknown reason, took a blanket and knelt down to pray.

Bai Tian Yu knew what was going on, he didn't bother him, but instead warned.

"Don't let your guard down, the old man is just praying, he'll be leaving soon!"

"Fatty, keep up!"

Sure enough, after An Li Man finished praying, he quickly mounted his camel and ran wildly forward.

"Run, the hyacinth is coming!"

Wang Fatty stared dumbfounded at An Li Man running so fast, he complained to Lao Hu.

"Damn, is this old man crazy?"

"He was still dragging his feet just now, how come?"

Rolling his eyes at Wang Fatty, Lao Hu looked at the scene behind him, urgently said.

"What are you talking about, run!"

"What's the rush, isn't it just getting windy?"

"You idiot, take a look behind you!"

Without paying attention to Wang Fatty, Lao Hu quickly followed Bai Tian Yu and the others.

Wang Fatty was confused, he scratched his head and looked back.

"Holy crap!"

Seeing the dust storm covering the sky behind him, Wang Fatty was terrified, he quickly urged his camel.

The group followed An Li Man all the way forward, until they saw an ancient ruin.

"Quick, we'll hide in there!"

An Li Man exclaimed excitedly when he saw the ruin.

Although they weren't sure if they could escape the black sandstorm, it was better than their current situation!

After a while, the five of them rushed into a relatively intact ruin.

"Everyone alright?"

Seeing that everyone was there, Bai Tian Yu asked.

Lao Hu and Wang Fatty nodded breathlessly, indicating they were fine.

As for An Li Man, Bai Tian Yu wasn't worried.

At this time, Shirley Yang raised her hand, she spoke with some embarrassment.

"I have sand in my eyes!"

"It's so uncomfortable!"

"Don't rub your eyes!"

Seeing Shirley Yang wanting to rub her eyes, Bai Tian Yu quickly stopped her.

"Let me blow on them for you!"

Ignoring the insinuations of Lao Hu and Wang Fatty, Bai Tian Yu came before Shirley Yang.

He first poured some water and washed his hands, then blew the sand out of Shirley Yang's eyes.

"How do you feel?"

"Much better!"

Shirley Yang blushed and nodded, shyly.

"Thank you!"

With a slight smile, Bai Tian Yu looked at Lao Hu and Wang Fatty who were watching the show, and shouted.

"What are you looking at, go get some firewood, we're staying here tonight!"

"Fatty, you also bring the supplies in, don't leave any behind!"

Lao Hu saw that there was no more drama to watch, he hurriedly replied.

"Okay, I'm going out."

Wang Fatty also said hello and left.

After a while, Wang Fatty had moved all the supplies from the camels.

"Hey, this isn't fair, Lao Bai, you're not being nice!"

"You didn't even come to help me!"

Looking at Wang Fatty who was panting after only carrying a small amount of supplies, Bai Tian Yu said helplessly.

"Fatty, you really need to exercise, how weak are you!"

"This is barely any stuff, and you're already complaining?"

Wang Fatty retorted.

"You're full of crap, I'm not weak, you're the one who's weak!"

This was a matter of male pride, how could Wang Fatty admit defeat, if it were just men that would be fine, but Shirley Yang was also there!

"Heh!"

Unfortunately, Wang Fatty only got a chuckle from Bai Tian Yu.

"……………”

He helped Wang Fatty carry all the supplies, mainly the water and food, the rest was still on the camels.

"Uncle An Li Man, I saw wolf footprints nearby earlier, is it……"

During dinner, Shirley Yang spoke.

"You're right, I also saw yellow sheep while I was carrying the supplies."

"How about I go hunt one, let's have some meat!"

Wang Fatty nodded, his mouth watering.

"No, no! It's not okay!"

An Li Man took a bite of his steamed bread, nodded, and quickly stopped him.

"Yeah, this place is where the old man prepared for those animals."

"We can't kill them indiscriminately, or the old man will blame us!"
