"Ahem..." Lu Yuan cleared his throat, stood on a big rock, and pretended to be a leader.

"I declare that the result this time... everyone is normal and performed well!"

"As a harmful organism, how can we take good care of rats? Eating them is the only normal choice. The more you eat, the more normal you will be." He expressed respect to everyone.

"Ouch!!"

Everyone screamed, even the old wolf who had eaten three mouse tails was cheering and jumping around.

Lu Yuan always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't place it.

"Dear friends, this coachman will take you out of the hospital."

He called his friends to get on the bus. The total weight of so many animals was almost a ton.

In particular, the turtle was twisting wildly inside the hood, the wolf and the cat were dancing disco on the turtle's back, and the whole tricycle was constantly vibrating.

"Stop fucking moving. Why is it so hard for me to step on it?"

It's not that he's not strong enough, it's that he doesn't have enough self-respect.

Even if the whole person stood on the pedal, he did not step on the pedal.

This time it’s really a small horse pulling a big cart.

"Then you transform!"

"Transform! Good brother, it's good to be a tree!"

The two good brothers roared wildly, mixed with the roar of the old wolf.

"Crash!" Lu Yuan was helpless. In fact, he could step on the tricycle with a 50 kilogram load on his back, but now it could only turn into a big tree. He climbed onto the tricycle and stepped on it with his own vines.

Tricycle.

"It feels like something is getting more and more wrong. Isn't this scene too weird?" Lu Yuan said expressionlessly.

In fact, if he wanted to make an expression, he couldn't do it - after all, a big tree is just a big tree, and only the human body can make expressions.

The wheels clattered on the cobblestone ground.

"This thing is so fun, let Mr. Turtle try it!" the immortal giant turtle howled in the open hood.

There was no other way, so Lu Yuan had no choice but to give it up and regain his human body. He was happy and relaxed.

This time, the painting style is even more informal.

A jet black turtle riding a tricycle.

Every time you step on it, the chain will make a "clunking" sound.

This giant turtle is quite nimble, and the size of a tricycle is just enough.

"If the tricycle is compared to a white dragon horse, who is the master?" the old cat said suddenly.

Lu Yuan's current mood is very Buddha-like. He feels that he has the weight of a Tathagata Buddha, who does not take pleasure in things or feel sorrow for himself.

Most of this wasteland is flat, so riding a tricycle is okay, and the speed can reach about 20 kilometers per hour.

This is actually much faster than walking, and even in uneven areas, the turtle can also carry a tricycle on its back.

After a while, they circled the lake and found a small, clear stream.

After replenishing the water supply for the last time, filling up the storage space, we headed towards the city in the sky.

"City in the Sky, here we come!"

"Ouch!!"

…

…

Time passes day by day.

Another month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Happy time is always short-lived, boring and tasteless are the main subjects of travel.

The vastness of this desert far exceeded Lu Yuan's imagination.

Since leaving the lake, the air has become drier and drier, and it has never rained again.

Even though it seems to be spring, it is cloudless. Under the hot sunshine, this piece of land is increasingly cracked and hardened, losing its original vitality.

There was only a small tricycle crossing the huge dry land alone.

"Turtles hate drought."

After a month of traveling, the Immortal Giant Turtle was a little annoyed by the action of riding a tricycle.

The most important thing is that it craves water.

The weather is so hot, not only can we swim, but we can't even drink water.

"I never thought that being tortured in prison was nothing, but that I would be sunk to death after I came out."

This guy keeps complaining.

Lu Yuan was speechless, poured a basin of ice-cold water from the storage space, and gave it to drink.

The immortal giant turtle held the basin and drank it all in one gulp.

"I'm alive...Thank you, brother..." It panted heavily, dissatisfied with its desires.

"Brother, it's not that I won't give it to you, but that we must cherish it." Lu Yuan said helplessly.

"Too much waste now, we will die of thirst on the road..."

"Either I give you another basin, which will be your last water today, and you can make your own plans?"

The turtle stared at the basin, and saw the drops of water rolling down the bottom, like sparkling diamonds.

It shook its head heavily and leaned over to lick it.

"It won't be a problem if this continues. Let's find a way to recycle it." The old cat came up with a good idea, "You hold your own urine and don't poop. When you rest, poop into a hole and poop into it.

In the pit.”

"Finally, put a layer of plastic film on the urine pit. After the urine evaporates, you will see shiny water droplets on the plastic film."

"Similarly, the water in the stool can also condense into water droplets!"

"Holy shit, are you a human? You let Mr. Turtle eat poop?" The turtle who was licking the basin was shocked, and his huge body trembled.

The old cat looked at it with round eyes: "First of all, I'm not a human being, and I don't need to drink water."

"Secondly, I want you to eat the condensed water drops, idiot."

It turned its head and said, "Lu Yuan, you are also a big water consumer. Can't you turn into a tree? It should be no problem to use the roots of the tree to eat some poop. Your dog can also eat poop."

"This is good, this is good, brother, you eat the poop, and I eat the water drops!" The turtle was ecstatic.

Lu Yuan was stunned and almost fell off the tricycle.

He cried out miserably: "Don't you know that trees will die from being urinated and defecated?"

…

Lu Yuan's big tree really doesn't need much food and can grow by relying on photosynthesis.

But if he materializes again, he'll still need water... and there's a damn lot of it.

Even though the bottles and cans in the storage space contained nearly 15 tons of water, he was still unsure. He only consumed 30 liters of water a day and it would be used up in 500 days.

You must know that this is still a desert, there are still a few weeds here, and it is not a real desert.

If you go to the desert, it will be even more painful.

"What if the Sky City is located in the very center of the desert?"

"What if there is no water source around? I must be prepared for this."

After some discussion, everyone decided to implement the strategy of "living in the day and coming out at night", that is, hiding in a tent to rest during the day and heading out at night.

Although the speed of traveling will be slightly slower, the consumption of water resources will be significantly reduced, and there will be no need to take a sip from time to time.

In addition, the "Ice Kirin's Core Crystal", a rare item that was useless in the past, actually came in handy. (It was picked up from the [Monster] cave.)

On the one hand, the "Ice Kirin's Core Crystal" can be used as an air conditioner, bringing a touch of coolness to the unbearable heat.

On the other hand, when water vapor encounters cold, it will condense into water droplets.

It's not impossible to use the urinal pit. Anyway, the water droplets condensed every day are enough for the old wolf to drink a pot!

So the old wolf was surprised to find that the water he drank recently had a faint smell of urine.

Ouch?

Well, this is actually dew, and the taste is quite pure.

It's impossible to tell the difference with its poor IQ, and it doesn't matter if it smells a little bit.

After riding like this for two full months, the group arrived at the end of the desert.
To be continued...
