[Chapter 288 Entering the Desert]

Wu Zhongyuan knew that Jiang Nan was joking with him, but he was still very embarrassed. He coughed dryly, took a long breath, and lay quietly without speaking.

Jiang Nan didn’t move, she didn’t know if she was waiting for Wu Zhongyuan to move, but she didn’t move.

Wu Zhongyuan didn’t move. He was a little regretful. As for what he was regretting, he couldn’t tell. It might be that he regretted not to hesitate, or that he was too thin-skinned and too timid.

I don’t know when I fell asleep, but I fell asleep later, naturally I wouldn’t think about it when I fell asleep, but I was used to sleeping alone, and suddenly there was another person beside me. Wake up, wake up and sleep, very restless.

Yinma River is located in the northwest region, and the temperature difference between day and night is very large. In addition, the inn is very simple and the room is ventilated. At dawn, Wu Zhongyuan felt cold and turned over in a daze.

As soon as he turned over, he would inevitably have physical contact again. When he realized that Jiang Nan was sleeping beside him, he was no longer confused.

Young people are full of energy and tend to be impulsive in any way. Calmness is a characteristic of older people. Calm in every way.

Just when he was hesitating whether to continue his efforts, the old blind man’s voice came from the next door. It was not loud, and seemed to be muttering to himself, “The wind is picking up.”

Hearing what the old blind man said, Wu Zhongyuan noticed the commotion outside. The wind was blowing, leaned down to the ground, walked to the window and opened the window to observe the wind direction. It was very good.

When he closed the window and turned around, he found that Jiang Nan was also awake, sitting on the bed and straightening his hair.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan looking at her, Jiang Nan asked casually, “Pack up and leave early.” It

wasn’t completely naked at first, but he took off his coat and put it on quickly.

It may be that they heard the sound of their walking, and the old blind man and the second child also got up. After a quarter of an hour, the four of them packed up and left the inn.

The Yihuan Market in Yinmahe is open during the day. In the morning, there are breakfast shops on the street. At this time, there are not so many breakfast shops and breakfast varieties in modern times. There is only one breakfast shop on the market, and Yihuan sells one. Roasted naan similar to Roujiamo, different from modern Roujiamo. At this time, Roujiamo is not filled with meat residue, but a whole piece of roasted meat. The roasted naan is also large, the size of a plate, one person per person, walking while walking. eat.

After refilling the dry food and drinking water, Wu Zhongyuan changed a few sheepskin blankets. The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is even greater, so it is necessary to bring something to keep out the cold.

When the preparations were made, Dasha was summoned, and the crowd was carried on the road.

Because they went to bed too late and

got up early, after the journey, everyone was a little sleepy, and there was little conversation. After half an hour, the sun rose, and everyone arrived at the junction area of the Gobi and the desert. , found an abandoned city wall that was almost buried by yellow sand, calibrated the position for the last time, and then entered the vast desert.

It would be a lie to say that I am not guilty. The vast desert is endless and lifeless. There are almost no plants and fewer animals along the way. All that can be seen is sand or sand.

The further he went deeper into the desert, the more uncertain Wu Zhongyuan’s heart became. Right now, everyone took the wind direction as a reference. The wind was the most elusive thing. There was no certainty where it would blow. It is impossible to be exactly the same, there are too many uncertain factors.

At this time, there was no locator or satellite phone. Once lost, the consequences would be disastrous. He had a spar with Wu Qin’s aura on him, but if he got lost in the desert, even Wu Qin couldn’t save them.

Potatoes are a common vegetable in modern times, and they are also food supplements for poor people. He doesn’t like eating them very much, and he never thought that one day he would risk his life for a few potatoes, but now he really needs this kind of food called Zihua. The potatoes of the potato are the food and grass for the war. The 100-day rice of the fox clan is not enough to supply the needs of the clansmen. It is necessary to find and bring back the purple flower potato. With these two things, there is no need to worry about the war. Soldiers have no food to eat, and they don’t have to worry that the war will affect farming and cause their tribesmen to starve to death.

Among the four, except the old blind man who had entered the desert, the remaining three did not go deep into the desert hinterland. It is not necessary to be nervous, but apprehension is always inevitable. The blind man was blind many years ago. Let the blind man lead the way and take the wind as a reference. This is more dangerous than the night black wind and the blind man and the blind horse.

Worried that the wind direction would change, Dasha had never had a land since he set off, and had been flying with the wind. On the way, the old blind man once again informed everyone about the situation of the Dixing family. The Dixing family should be the close relatives of the modern echidna. Porcupines are also somewhat related by blood. In short, they are animals with sharp spines and live underground. They are about the same size as wild boars and weigh more than 200 pounds. Their IQ is not high, but they are very fierce.

The Black Cloud Valley where they live is actually an oasis in the desert. Purple sweet potato is their main food. Although they can’t cultivate, they know that they will deliberately leave a part of the wild purple sweet potato if they don’t eat them all.

Earthwalkers cannot change into human beings. At least the old blind man has never seen Earthwalkers who can transform into human form. The attacks of the Earthwalkers are simple and rude. They mainly focus on scratching and biting. Usually blasted out, those sharp thorns have the length of chopsticks, are very hard, and are very sharp.

Searching for purple sweet potato is extremely dangerous, but the danger does not come from the Dixing people. No matter how sharp the sharp thorns of the Dixing people are, it is impossible to hurt Dasha. On the way to find the Black Cloud Valley, the weather in the desert changes rapidly, especially the mobile desert.

At noon, Dasha fell to the ground, not because the wind had changed, but because the wind had stopped.

There are many tall dunes in the desert. The sun shines directly at noon, and the heat is unbearable. Everyone rests and waits on the dark side of a hill.

There are only a few animals in the desert, not completely absent. It is not only everyone who knows the summer, there is also a five-foot-long poisonous snake coiled in the shade. The second child is an armadillo. It likes to eat snakes, but it is a bit similar to a cat. , if they catch a mouse, they will not eat it immediately. They will play for a long time. When the second child is teasing the poisonous snake, the three of them estimate the current position and the approximate distance from the Black Cloud Valley not far away.

The old blind man set off from the Yinma River back then, and took a bird to fly for six hours before he stumbled upon the Black Cloud Valley. Everyone started at the hour, and now it is noon, and flew for three hours. According to the time, it is inferred that there is still more than one hour from the Black Cloud Valley. half the way.

The shade of the desert is not exposed to the sun. In fact, the temperature is not low. After the sand is heated, the heat wave is rolling, and even hiding in the shade is like taking a sauna.

The second child also has a poisonous snake to kill time. The three of them can only wait. In fact, the waiting is not torturous, because while waiting, they can take the opportunity to think about a lot of questions. Wu Zhongyuan has been closing his eyes, thinking that after obtaining the spiritual energy, he should Taking something as a reference, buried in a spiritual stone in some places, if it is really sent back by Wu Mi, he can also try to come back.

The things buried 5,000 years ago, even if it is me, may not be found after 5,000 years, because 5,000 years is too long, let alone the rivers that often divert, even the peaks that stand in the same place will be divided and deformed. .

After pondering for a long time, he suddenly had an idea. That day, the bird warrior dressed as a Taoist priest who tried to kill him in modern times had obtained a spiritual stone. The spiritual stone was wrapped in an iron ball and then embedded in a piece of bluestone. He clearly remembered the shape and size of the iron ball, and also heard Mr. Li, who once collected spirit stones, talk about the general situation of the mountain where the spirit stones are located.

He will get the spirit stone in the future, and he can go there. He doesn’t know where the peak is. He only knows that it is in the area where the bird tribe is close to Dongguan. The iron ball wrapped with the spirit stone was embedded in the bluestone as a reference, and then some more were buried nearby. Once it was sent back by Wu Xi, he went to the place where Mr. Li got the iron ball to find other spirits. In this way, the spiritual

stone

obtained by the bird warrior dressed as a Taoist priest was buried by him, and was eventually obtained and used by himself. He didn’t bother to think about the paradox of time and space. All thinking is necessary. Just remember one thing, what is thrown from the upstream, the downstream will definitely get it. There is no mistake in this logic.

The weather was very hot and the desert was very dry. It didn’t take long for the three of them to start sweating and their lips began to burst.

After the sun went down, it finally got better. After nightfall, the temperature dropped sharply, and the four of them came from the yin side to the yang side, where the sand still had the residual temperature left by the sunlight.

When it came to a fixed meal time, Dasha wanted to eat, but there was no food nearby for him to eat. Wu Zhongyuan sent his thoughts and only asked him to eat after leaving here, and Dasha lay down quietly.

After dark, scorpions and snakes in the desert come out to forage. Their food is insects and rodents respectively. There are few plants in the desert, and it is unknown what they live on.

There is the second child, and there are no poisonous insects near the three of them. The second child is also a nocturnal animal, and it keeps vigil at night.

After staying up all night, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com The next day was still windless, so I had no choice but to wait.

Dasha can survive for a long time without eating, and everyone brings plenty of dry food and drinking water, at least half a month’s amount, even if he waits here for a few days, it’s fine.

On the afternoon of the third day, the wind finally picked up, but it was not the southeast wind that everyone expected, but the bitter west wind.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, the yellow sand filled the sky, and the clouds covered the sun. Although it was daytime, it almost reached the point where you couldn’t see your fingers. Fortunately, there was a big fool. It was very huge. Under its belly, relying on its shelter.

The four of them were all disgraced at this time. Seeing that the three of them were embarrassed and sad, Wu Zhongyuan felt very guilty, causing them to suffer and was very uneasy.

The wind picked up in the afternoon, and the wind weakened only in the middle of the night. Looking around, the originally towering sand dune had become a small dirt bag, at least tens of meters had been cut off.

There was still no wind the next day. Although everyone complained secretly, they could only continue to wait…
