Find Me In Your Labyrinth

The next day, early morning.
Before it was completely bright, Dustin was suddenly awakened by the sound of footsteps outside the tent.
He immediately stood up and was secretly on guard.
Soon, Uncle Wang’s voice came: “Miss, something happened outside!”
Uncle Wang stood outside the tent to report, but did not enter rashly.
”Huh?”
Hearing the noise, Margaret slowly opened her eyes, slid out of the sleeping bag, put on her coat, and asked, “Uncle Wang,
what’s wrong?”
“I just saw something around the camp during a routine inspection, a large number of gerbils(Mouse-Rat’s) appeared. I followed
the gerbils’ movement and found that the supplies we had stored had been destroyed by the gerbils!” Uncle Wang said in a
panic.
”What?”
Upon hearing this, Margaret’s expression suddenly became solemn, and she quickly opened the tent and walked out, saying in a
deep voice: “Didn’t I arrange for people to take turns on guard? Why are they still being attacked by gerbils?” “
I... I don’t know what happened, but when the problem just happened, it was already too late.” Uncle Wang cried sadly.
”Let’s go! Go and take a look!”
Margaret didn’t say much and immediately rushed to the place where supplies were stored.
This time, just in case, she carried various survival supplies and used a large number of camels to carry them.
Before dark, she ordered people to keep an eye on it. Unexpectedly, something happened to the supplies just after she slept.
When Margaret and others rushed to the storage location, they found thousands of gerbils(Mouse-Rat’s) running around.
Food, water, and various supplies were scattered all over the floor.

Some members of the escort team were struggling to drive away the surrounding gerbils.
However, these gerbils don’t seem to be afraid of people at all, and they still eat all kinds of food.
Seeing this, Margaret couldn’t help but frown slightly.
Gerbils are timid and cautious by nature, and it is rare for them to blatantly snatch human food like this.
The most important thing is that not only are the gerbils numerous in number, but they are also going crazy and cannot be driven
away.
Most of the survival supplies she carried this time had been destroyed.
If Uncle Wang hadn’t discovered it early, the gerbils would have looted all the supplies before end of the day.
”These damn beasts! How dare you steal our things? Kill them all!” Uncle Wang cursed angrily.
After receiving the order, the members of the escort team took out their weapons and began to hunt the gerbils without caring
about anything else.
With the sound of gunfire and slashing, one after another, the gerbils fell into a pool of blood.
Seemingly frightened, the group of gerbils that had been robbing them violently before finally began to flee in all directions.
After a while, they disappeared without a trace, leaving only hundreds of gerbil corpses.
However, to the gerbil group, this loss is nothing.
Because of the gunfire, everyone in the camp had been awakened.
Everyone’s faces were particularly ugly when they saw the mess on the ground.
Along the way, they also experienced a lot of troubles, such as sandstorms, quicksand areas, poisonous snakes and scorpions.
But there were all near misses, and with adequate preparation, nothing was lost.
However, now, a sudden rat plague has destroyed most of their supplies.
