The sky in the southwest was a dim yellow, and the area close to the ground was even slightly red. The red clouds pressing down on the city were like the omens of the demons and ghosts that were about to appear in those thrilling adventure stories.
The ferocious harmattan storm reminded Zhang Zian of the sandstorms in northern China.
Just then, Vladimir hurried back and complained, "Meow, what's wrong with the cats here? I just gathered them and was about to teach them about the superiority of the Meow Meow Doctrine, but when they saw the storm in the distance, they ran away in fear! "
"You came back just in time. The storm is coming, so don't run around," Zhang Zian said. "The local stray cats must know how scary the storm is, so they ran away in fear."
Vladimir had all his strength but nowhere to use it, but he could only sigh helplessly.
"What do we do now?" he asked Fina nervously. Out of everyone present, only Fina understood this kind of storm.
He picked up his phone and started the live broadcast app, only to find that Sihwa had not ended the live broadcast yet. If the storm was too fierce, he was afraid that he could only forcefully interrupt her live broadcast and take her back into his phone.
Fina looked calm. "It's okay. The harmattan wind looks very fierce, but it's actually not dangerous. As long as you don't move and wait for it to blow past, you'll be fine. At most, you'll just get some sand on your body. "
Zhang Zian was not as confident as it was, because the storm was coming in all directions, and it didn't seem like it was okay.
Fina glared at him. "What are you panicking for? The harmattan wind blows from the desert of the red land, sweeping up a lot of floating sand, so it looks very fierce. The visibility in the storm is very low, but in fact, it's not very strong. It won't blow people away, and it won't bury the ancient city. It's just that the God of Desert and Violence, Seth, has shown his power to the enemy a little, but how can this make me afraid? Idiots who die from the harmattan wind usually walk around when they can't see anything in the wind, and they lose their way and walk deep into the desert. "
The red land should be referring to the Sahara Desert. Anyway, the ancient Egyptians called all the deserts outside of ancient Egypt red land.
"Oh." Zhang Zian heard that what it said was reasonable and finally felt a little relieved. "But how can you be sure that Seth is behind this?"
Fina knew that he did not believe in the existence of God Seth, so she snorted coldly. "Because the harmattan wind usually rages in Egypt during the winter, and in the spring, it becomes the kassin wind that blows once every 50 days. It's already summer, but the harmattan wind that only blows in winter is blowing. If it's not for me, then what else can it be?"
Vladimir's spirit was lifted. He clenched his fists and said, "As soon as there is wind and thunder on the earth, there are piles of white bones! No matter what kind of demon or ghost dares to cause trouble, they must taste the iron fist of the Meow Meow Doctrine! "
Zhang Zian did not dwell on this issue. Whether or not the storm was coming for Fina, he had to think of a countermeasure first.
Wait a minute! It said that the harmattan wind would not blow people away or bury the ancient city. Did it mean that there was another strong storm in the desert that could blow people away and bury the ancient city?
When he thought of this, he could not stay calm again. He could only pray to Goddess Bastet that the expedition team would not encounter such a storm in the desert …
But the most important thing now was to let Nekhbet land. Although the storm was not dangerous to people, there was no need for the drone to take the risk.
Before controlling Nekhbet to land, he looked at the surfer in the sea again. The man seemed to be focused on riding the waves and did not notice that the harmattan wind was coming.
But even if the harmattan wind only affected the line of sight, it was probably not dangerous to the surfer.
"Then let's go back to the car first, so that we don't get sand all over our faces," Zhang Zian said.
No one objected to this suggestion. They all jumped out of their chairs and ran to the station wagon.
Zhang Zian was responsible for packing up the chairs. He also had to fold the parasol and put it in the car to prevent the parasol from being blown away by the wind. If that happened, the deposit would not be refunded.
Now, only Galaxy and Sihwa were still outside. The other elfins had all gotten in the car.
"Sihwa is in the cave. Even if there is sand, it won't be able to blow her. I'll go find Galaxy. You guys wait here first," he said, leaving the door ajar.
But where was Galaxy hiding?
Usually, it was difficult to find Galaxy in the pet shop, let alone on an unfamiliar and long coastline.
"Galaxy! Where are you? The storm is coming. Stop playing hide-and-seek! "he shouted, cupping his hands around his mouth.
The storm had not yet arrived, but there was already a faint whistling sound. Under the suppression of the whistling sound and the tide, his voice did not travel too far.
Galaxy did not appear, nor did it respond. He didn't know if it did not hear him, or if it was playing hide-and-seek too seriously, thinking that he was tricking it to come out.
Famous pushed open the door and jumped out. "I told you that your hide-and-seek is too exaggerated. Forget it, I'll look with you."
It was wearing the wind-proof goggles that the US military dogs used to fight in the mountains. It was not afraid of the wind and sand, and it could use the storm to test its effect. It was also not afraid of water. Even if it was covered in sand, it could just go into the sea and wash it off.
It would be great to have Famous's help. After all, its sense of smell was very sensitive, and it was much better than Zhang Zian, who was like a headless fly.
Vladimir and Old Time Tea also wanted to help, but Zhang Zian felt that they might not be of much help. If they got lost in the storm, it would be even more troublesome, so he asked them to stay in the car and wait.
As for Pi, Snowy Lionet, and Richard, they would only be a hindrance in the storm, so it was better to stay in the car.
Fina felt that they were too nervous. It was nothing more than a small sandstorm. For it, who had grown up here, it was a common occurrence. There was no need to make a fuss.
Besides, did Galaxy need them to look for it? Even if they got lost, Galaxy would not get lost.
That being said, it was Zhang Zian's first time seeing such a large-scale storm. He would not be at ease until he found Galaxy.
He discussed it with Famous. Because they did not know which direction Galaxy had run in, they decided to split up. With the station wagon as the center, Zhang Zian would go east, and Famous would go west. Whether they could find it or not, they had to turn back in time before the storm arrived. The visibility in the storm was extremely poor, and the smell would also be blown away. Even if they could not find it, there was no point in staying in the storm.
After the discussion was settled, he and Famous set off to search in both directions. As they searched, they shouted at Galaxy to stop hiding.
"Galaxy! Where are you? "
"Woof woof! Woof woof! "
Zhang Zian went east along the coastline. He looked around, not letting go of any rocks or shrubs. As he got closer and closer to the surfer's car, Famous's barking became further and further away. Finally, he could not hear it at all.
"Galaxy! Where are you? We admit defeat. Come out! "he shouted.
The storm was getting closer and closer, and the front had already reached the coast. Zhang Zian's clothes were fluttering in the wind. Every time he opened and closed his mouth, it felt like his mouth was full of small sand. He could only spit it out, and when he shouted again, it was another mouthful of sand.
The sand brought by the harmattan wind was different from the sand on the beach. It was very small, between the size of dust and ordinary sand. It was extremely difficult to deal with.
Fortunately, he was also wearing sunglasses. Otherwise, his eyes would have been blinded.
He took out a white scarf from his trouser pocket and wrapped it around his nose and mouth like Arabs. He felt much better. It seemed that the people of the desert could survive in such a harsh environment.
If he still could not find it, he could only go back first and hope that Famous had good luck.
Turning around a promontory, he suddenly saw Galaxy. She was sitting between two rocks, not hiding or hiding.
"Galaxy, the storm is coming. Let's go back to the car first." He was finally relieved. He did not have time to ask why Galaxy was not hiding in a hiding place. It was more important to talk about business first.
Galaxy turned its head to look at him, then continued to stare at the sea and said, "Meow. That person may be in danger."
Zhang Zian was stunned and looked at the sea, but the surfer was still surfing. There was no sign of danger.
