Chapter 240 Desert Mutation
[The previous chapter has been revised. ]
The young man did not interrupt, but listened quietly to Zhang Hao's words.
"Will devout faith really be responded to by gods?" Zhang Hao asked softly.
This question seemed to be asking Wang Xianxian, but also seemed to be asking his own heart, and even more like asking a certain existence deep in the desert.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Xianxian comforted: "The gods have pity on all living things, yes."
"But the one you are talking about is our Chinese gods, and the one I believe in is a foreign product." Zhang Hao sighed and rejected Wang Xianxian's comfort.
"Emmmm" Wang Xianxian looked at Zhang Hao speechlessly, "Brother Hao, you are not pious."
"Adaptive belief, we don't believe in useless gods." Zhang Hao stood up suddenly, and then patted the sand on his body, "If he really gives me some strength, I promise to be pious."
Although Zhang Hao said so, Wang Xianxian could clearly feel that the other party believed in the desert death god from the bottom of his heart, and that was just to get a little peace of mind.
"So whoever has milk is the mother?" Wang Xianxian teased.
"If he can meet my requirements, he is a god, and if he can't, it's feudal superstition!" Zhang Hao exaggeratedly said, "Little Master, remember, we Chinese don't raise useless gods, and Chinese people don't worship useless gods!"
"What about the God of Wealth?" The boy smiled evilly.
It broke in a second.
Zhang Hao immediately clasped his hands together, with a pious face: "Lord God of Wealth must be too busy with business, I believe that one day it will be my turn."
"Hahahahaha!" Wang Xianxian laughed very happily.
At this moment, the door of the supply station was pushed open from the inside.
"Why are you laughing instead of standing guard?" Hu Tu came out with sleepy eyes, "Did you drink some good wine secretly?"
Qian Li also came out: "You've worked hard on the night duty, let's change shifts."
Seeing that it was time to change shifts, Zhang Hao stretched himself.
"Sleep, sleep, my alcohol tolerance is getting worse and worse now. I just drank this little bit of wine and I'm starting to stagger when I walk."
After saying that, Zhang Hao stretched out his hand and put it on Qian Li's shoulder.
"Captain Qian, I'll leave it to you..."
"Hmm? Why are you so serious?"
"Don't worry, I'm not drunk. I know the military discipline. I just drank a little..."
The voice stopped abruptly, and Zhang Hao's expression began to become extremely ugly.
Because he found that it was not him who was shaking, but this...
desert!
"Everyone get up!" Qian Li quickly returned to the supply station and roared wildly at his sleeping comrades, "Get up!!!"
The sleeping soldier heard the shouts of his comrades, opened his eyes instantly, then clenched the weapon beside him and jumped off the bed.
"What happened?" Lu Hao asked.
"There was an earthquake. The specific cause is unknown, but it is likely to be caused by a strange beast. Contact the military immediately and report the situation!" Qian Li quickly issued an order.
After receiving the order, Lu Hao ran directly to the radio and started to operate it.
The other team members also walked out of the supply station. They tried to use their mental power to explore everything around them.
Wang Xianxian and Zhang Hao also looked around nervously.
The originally calm sand surface began to tremble slightly, as if an invisible force was surging below.
The gravel kept jumping, like tiny waves, spreading far away.
The sand dunes in the distance also began to move slowly, and the originally stable shape became distorted.
At this moment, no one present thought that this was an ordinary natural earthquake.
"Damn it, why didn't I find anything!" Hu Tu cursed, "Damn it, it must be that group of strange beasts!"
On the other side, Wang Xianxian closed his eyes, and the aroma of wine continued to fill his surroundings.
Under the control of the young man, the refreshing aroma of wine began to penetrate slowly into the ground along the gaps between the gravel.
Inside the supply station, Lu Hao, who was operating the radio, was constantly adjusting the buttons on the machine.
"Calling headquarters, calling headquarters, this is supply station 08446, please reply if you receive it."
One minute later, facing the constant sizzling sound of the radio.
Lu Hao's head was still covered with sweat, and at the same time his tone was stained with a hint of panic.
"Supply station 08446 calls headquarters, please reply if you hear it, please reply if you hear it!!!"
However, the response in the headset was always a chaotic electric current sound.
Finally, panic replaced Lu Hao's calm expression, and he looked at Qian Li who was waiting anxiously beside him and said tremblingly.
"No... no response... the signal was blocked..."
Lu Hao's panic expression made the other team members nervous.
Qian Li seemed to be unwilling to give up: "What about other temporary supply stations, can't they be contacted?"
After Lu Hao tried again, he shook his head slowly again.
Qian Li made a decisive decision and immediately said, "Hu Tu, fire a flare to alert the surrounding supply stations!"
Hu Tu, who was outside, heard it and took out the flare.
Just when he was about to fire, he saw a series of red dots like bright meteors, with long tails, shining brightly, rushing into the sky at an astonishing speed.
Almost at the same time, dozens of flares rushed into the sky and cut through the night sky.
"Did the comrades at other supply stations also find it?" Zhang Hao asked in a serious tone.
Hu Tu did not hesitate at all and pulled the trigger directly. The flare belonging to the 08446 supply station also rushed into the sky.
At this time, Qian Li and Lu Hao rushed out of the supply station together.
"Hu Tu, Sun Qiang, Zhang Wei, Li Wen, go pack up the military supplies and take all the weapons you can carry. Old Wu, go start the spare vehicle!" Qian Li arranged the tasks in a swift and decisive manner.
Finally, he stood in front of Wang Xianxian and Zhang Hao and saluted solemnly.
"Comrade Zhang Hao, there is a spare vehicle at the supply station. Please continue your mission and bring the little master back to the city safely."
After that, he handed the key to Zhang Hao: "Please be sure to complete your mission!"
Zhang Hao returned a standard military salute, and then directly pulled Wang Xianxian next to him to the car.
Seeing that the boy was struggling and seemed to want to say something, Zhang Hao's tone was unprecedentedly serious.
"This is a battlefield, sacrifice and death are inevitable!"
"Each of us has his own mission, my mission is to ensure your safety."
"And it is their mission to remind the headquarters and ring the bell tower."
"Your value is more important than me, them, and even the entire Tianbing City!"
"You are the one who can change history and the world, I will never let you fall here!"
"If you really want to do something for us and the country, then live well and become strong, strong enough to protect everything!"
"If you are a man, don't be fussy, don't do those old-fashioned plots in movies."
"Get in the car!" Zhang Hao roared.
Looking back at Qian Li and others who were quickly moving supplies, Wang Xianxian clenched his fists and finally got in the car resolutely.
Seeing Wang Xianxian get in the car, Zhang Hao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly sat in the driver's seat and started the car.
When they drove past Qian Li and others, Qian Li saluted them: "Comrade, safe journey!"
Zhang Hao nodded: "I wish you good luck in martial arts!"
After saying that, Zhang Hao suddenly stepped on the accelerator.
The whole car instantly turned into an arrow from a bow, rushing quickly into the distance!
