Chapter 46
The hot sun still bakes the earth.
Looking around, the two of them struggled to move forward on the desolate Gobi Desert.
It was the first time she had traveled through such an area. The strict conditions made Li Jian a little dizzy, but her stubborn personality made her grit her teeth.
Tang Yi on the other side is not very good now, because his physical strength has dropped sharply, and in order to save water, he hardly drank much water.
He was severely dehydrated and had to endure the pain all over his body. Not to mention the source of water, even an animal could not see it.
Chewing on the bitter leaves, this low shrub is very difficult to find in this Gobi Desert.
Relieve the dryness in your mouth, but Tang Yi is not a camel, so eating this kind of thing is definitely not useful.
"careful!"
Just when Li Jing was drowsy, Tang Yi's voice suddenly came, which scared her to tremble, but when she understood, she found that she had caused a big disaster.
They were climbing a slope at this time, and their feet were actually stepping on a bun. Less than ten centimeters away from their calves, the yellow scorpion, which had been yellow, had already held up its tail and pierced towards her.
The yellow fat-tailed scorpion, the third of the top ten poisonous scorpions, is a big trouble if you get stung by it, but it's only a millisecond, and it's too late to raise your foot.
Just as he was about to fall into the trap, a figure suddenly rushed over from behind her.
"ah!"
Tang Yi grabbed the yellow fat-tailed scorpion as big as a palm. At the same time, the tail thorn of the yellow fat-tailed scorpion had already pierced into his tiger's mouth.
With a scream, Tang Yi's three-edged military spike with his other hand pierced through its body and cut off its tail.
"You're stung, what should I do!"
Li Jue hurriedly squatted down and looked at the tail inserted into Tang Yi's tiger's mouth. I'm afraid that its toxins had entered Tang Yi's blood vessels at this moment.
"What should I do? I finally had some food, of course I ate it quickly. It's true that I'll fill my stomach quickly!"
But unexpectedly, Tang Yi took off the scorpion's tail from his hand without any care, stuffed it into his mouth, and handed the scorpion's body to Li Jing.
Looking at Tang Yi chewing the scorpion's tail, Li Jing was shocked. First of all, his eating habits were really terrible, and secondly, this was a poisonous scorpion.
"You are still in the mood to eat now, you are poisoned!"
Li Jian said with his eyes widened in horror as he grabbed Tang Yi's wrist.
"Don't worry, this little toxin is compared to the mandala in my body. It's a big witch. Maybe I'm a poisonous person now. This toxin doesn't work at all. Stop talking nonsense, eat it quickly and replenish some physical strength. I'll see if there are any treasures nearby!"
He also broke off the two claws in front, and Tang Yi threw them into his mouth without wasting any effort, but Li Jie on the opposite side still did not move.
"Don't forget that we are soldiers. If we want to go out alive, we must eat. If we don't even eat such delicious food, are you going to die here? The captain's daughter is really cowardly!"
Tang Yi looked at Li Jing with contempt, and the last sentence really hurt Li Jing's nerves.
"Who said I dare not!"
After snatching the scorpion from Tang Yi's hand, Li Jing endured the feeling of his stomach being overturned and put it in his mouth and chewed it.
"This is almost the same, I'll look for it again!"
Tang Yi nodded with satisfaction. This little girl really needed to be inspired. Tang Yi turned around and continued to look for the scorpion, but did not see the tears of grievance in the corner of Li Jing's eyes.
The strong woman quickly wiped her tears. This was her first time eating a living thing, but she also knew that she had to do this in order to live.
In less than half an hour, Tang Yi found seven scorpions nearby and swallowed their tails and claws into their stomachs. Tang Yi forced Li Jing to eat three more.
"Okay, at least I can hold on for a while. I just saw the footprints of camels and people. If I walked forward, there might be a village. It would be great if I could live there!"
Tang Yi waved his hand at Li Jing. She had never spoken since she ate the scorpion.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to say it, but because she feels like she wants to vomit when she opens her mouth. As an agent, she really can’t imagine how strong the survival ability of this special forces in the wild is.
"We call snake meat **, scorpions are called slices of meat, ants are called minced meat, and mice are called eggs. These four types taste good, at least they know they are eaten. These things in the jungle are not easy to find, so we can also eat mantis and lizards. The worst thing is to find earthworms. The food is eaten in the mouth is the same as eating soil, so I can't understand why fish like to eat earthworms!"
Tang Yi was walking and said to Li Yi beside him, and these words almost made her spit it out.
"Can you shut your mouth?"
This guy definitely did it on purpose. Until now, he still had a fishy smell in his mouth. He couldn't help but take a sip of water and suppressed the feeling of vomiting. Li Jue glared at Tang Yi fiercely.
Hearing this, Tang Yi could only smile and shrugged.
People say that soldiers are so powerful, but they don’t know how much suffering and how much sin they have suffered in order to survive on the battlefield.
“There is a village!”
I walked for about three more hours. After climbing over a hillside, a mountain village appeared in front of me attracted the attention of two people.
This is a slightly lower basin, with green vegetation even denser. Looking at the houses built with hay and mud, there are actually modern sheds built, which makes both of them very excited.
Unable to bring a gun, Tang Yi found a gap to hide the gun in it, and then walked down the hillside with Li Jian.
Li Jing was still a little nervous. After all, would it be a bit abrupt if they visited like this? But Tang Yi walked up and talked to the locals, and the locals actually laughed.
"As long as they praise their true gods, they will happily accept you. Perhaps this is the simplicity of the closed mountain village!"
The arrival of the two people brought the locals to the crowd. The sun was about to set and everyone was back after finishing their work.
"Why are they all old people?"
He greeted them warmly for dinner. Li Jian looked at the more than thirty people in front of him in confusion, and they all turned out to be old people.
Not to mention young and strong people, there is not even a single child. This is so strange.
"They were all taken away by the Youth Army!"
Speaking of this, the old people looked lonely. Although the village was already very closed, they still could not stop the young army like a plague.
All the young and strong powers were pulled away, and even the seven or eight-year-old children were taken to serve as soldiers, and women were even raped and became slaves.
