Chapter 288 Entering the desert

Wu Zhongyuan knew that Jiang Nan was joking with him, but he was still embarrassed. He coughed dryly, took a long breath, lay quietly, and stopped talking.

Jiang Nan didn't move. I didn't know if he was waiting for Wu Zhongyuan to move. In short, she didn't move.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't move either. He regretted it a little. As for what he regretted, he couldn't explain clearly. Maybe he shouldn't hesitate, or maybe he regretted that he was too thin and too courageous.

I don’t know when I fell asleep, but I always fell asleep afterwards. I naturally wouldn’t think about it all. However, when I got used to sleeping alone, there was a little more or less that I was a little uncomfortable with it. I woke up and woke up all night and was very uneasy.

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

As soon as I turned over, I would inevitably have physical contact. When I realized that Jiang Nan was sleeping next to me, I was not confused in an instant.

Young people are full of energy and are prone to impulsiveness in any aspect. Calmness is a characteristic that older people have, and they are very calm in any aspect.

Just as he was hesitating whether to continue working hard, the old blind man's voice came from the next door, not loud, and seemed to be talking to himself, "The wind is blowing."

After hearing what the old blind man said, Wu Zhongyuan noticed that the wind was rising outside. He leaned down and walked to the window and opened the window to observe the wind direction. It was very good. The weather was beautiful, and it was the southeast wind.

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

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan looking at her, Jiang Nan asked casually, "Carry it out and leave early."

Originally, they didn't take off all their clothes, but they just took off their coats and put on their clothes very quickly. Perhaps because they heard the sound of them walking around, the old blind man and the dick also got up. A quarter of an hour later, the four of them packed up and left the inn.

Yichuang Market in Yinmahe is open during the day and there are breakfast on the streets in the morning. At this time, there are not as many breakfast shops and breakfast varieties as modern times. There is only one breakfast shop in the market. Yichuang sells a kind of baked naan similar to Roujiamo. Unlike modern Roujiamo, the Roujiamo at this time, there is not meat residue, but a whole piece of barbecue. The baked naan is also large, the size of a plate, one for each person, and eat while walking.

After replenishing dry food and drinking water, Wu Zhongyuan changed into several sheepskin blankets. The temperature difference between day and night in the desert was even greater, so things to keep warm were required.

After getting ready, Dasha came, and took everyone to the road with the wind.

Because they slept too late and got up early, everyone was a little sleepy after they set off on the road and had little conversation. Half an hour later, the sun rose and everyone arrived at the junction of the Gobi Desert and the desert. When they arrived here, they found an abandoned city wall that was almost buried by yellow sand according to the old blind man. They calibrated their direction for the last time, and then entered the vast desert.

If you don’t feel guilty in your heart, it’s a lie. The endless desert is dead, and you can hardly see any plants along the way, even fewer animals, and you can see only sand.

The deeper he walked into the desert, the more he felt unsure. Everyone was now using the wind direction as a reference. The wind was the most elusive thing. There was no accurate place to blow. It was also the southeast wind, and the direction and angle of the blow could not be exactly the same. There were too many uncertain factors.

There were no locators or satellite phones at this time. Once he got lost, the consequences would be unimaginable. He had a crystal containing Wu Qin's spiritual energy, but if he got lost in the desert, even Wu Qin could not save them.

Potatoes are common vegetables in modern times and are also auxiliary food for poor families. He doesn't like to eat this thing very much, and he never thought that one day he would take risks for a few potatoes. But now he does need this kind of potato called purple flower sweet potato. The food and grass are all fought in war. The fox tribe's 100-day rice is not enough to provide the needs of the tribe's people, so he must find and bring back the purple flower sweet potato. With these two things, there is no worries when fighting, there is no need to worry that the soldiers have no food to eat, nor do you have to worry that the war will affect farming and cause the tribe's people to starve to death.

Among the four, except for the old blind man who had entered the desert, the remaining three did not go deep into the heart of the desert. They were not nervous, but nervousness was inevitable. If the old blind man was not blind, the three of them might feel more at ease, but the old blind man had been blind many years ago. Let the blind lead the way and use the wind as a reference. This is more dangerous than the dark wind at night, and the blind man and the blind horse.

Worried that the wind direction would change, Dasha never stayed in the ground after leaving and kept flying down the wind. On the way, the old blind man once again informed everyone about the situation of the Dixing clan. The Dixing clan should be a close relative of modern echidnas, and may also have some blood relationship with the porcupine. In short, it is an animal that has a sharp thorn and lives underground. It is about the same size as a wild boar, weighs more than 200 kilograms, and has a low IQ but is very fierce.

The Black Cloud Valley where they live is actually an oasis in the desert. Purple flower potatoes are their main food. Although they cannot cultivate, they know that they will deliberately leave a part of the wild Purple Flower potatoes.

The Dixing tribe cannot be changed into human beings. At least the old blind man has never seen the Dixing tribe who can become human. The Dixing tribe's attack is simple and rough, mainly scratching and biting. Their skills are to shoot out the sharp thorns on their bodies like scattered flowers. The sharp thorns are as long as chopsticks, which are very hard and very sharp.

The danger of finding purple flower sweet potato is extremely high, but the danger does not come from the Dixing tribe. No matter how sharp the sharp thorns of the Dixing tribe are, they cannot hurt the fool at all. If there are tens of dangers in this trip, ninety percent of them come from the way to find the Black Cloud Valley. The weather in the desert changes rapidly, especially the mobile desert.

At noon, Dasha landed on the ground, not because the wind direction changed, but because the wind stopped.

There are many tall sand dunes in the desert. The sun shines directly at noon and the heat is hard to catch. Everyone rests and waits on the shade of the hill.

There are only a few animals in the desert, not at all. Not only do people know that they are escaping the heat, but there is also a venomous snake over five feet long, which is also wrapped in the shade. The second is an armadillo. It likes to eat snakes, but it is a bit similar to a cat. It doesn't eat it immediately when it catches a mouse. It will play for half a day first. When the second child teases the poisonous snake, the three of them estimate their current location and the approximate distance from the Black Cloud Valley from not far away.

The old blind man set out from Yinmahe and flew in a bird for six hours before he accidentally discovered the Black Cloud Valley. Everyone set out at Chenshi, but now it is noon, and he has been flying for three hours. According to the time, it is inferred that it is half the distance from the Black Cloud Valley.

The sun is not exposed to the shade of the desert. In fact, the temperature is not low. After the sand is hot, the heat waves roll, and even hiding on the shade is like a sauna.

The second child has a poisonous snake to kill time, and the three of them can only wait, but in fact, waiting is not a pain, because while waiting, you can take the opportunity to think about many problems. Wu Zhongyuan has been closing his eyes, thinking about what should be used as a reference after obtaining spiritual energy and buried in spirit stones in some places. If Wu Wei is really sent back, he can also try to come back.

Even if I am buried five thousand years ago, I may not be able to find anything in five thousand years, because five thousand years has been too long, let alone rivers that often change courses, even the peaks that stand in place will be differentiated and deformed.

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

Then he can go to the vicinity. He doesn't know where the mountain is, but only knows that in the area near Dongguan where the bird tribe is, he will take the spirit stones to wherever he will find a mountain to embed the iron ball wrapped in the bluestone, using this as a reference, and then buried some nearby. Once Wu Wei sent it back, he will go to the place where Mr. Li got the iron ball to find other spirit stones.

In this way, the spirit stone obtained by the bird warrior dressed by the Taoist priest was buried by him, and was eventually obtained and used by him. He was too lazy to think about the paradox of time and space. You must know that not all thinking is necessary. Just remember one thing, the things thrown down the upstream will definitely be obtained. There is no error in this logic.

The weather was very hot and the desert was very dry. Not long after, the three of them began to sweat and their lips began to burst.

After the sun set, it finally got better. After nightfall, the temperature dropped sharply. The four of them came from the dark side to the sun, where the sand and the residual heat left by the sunlight.

When it was a fixed meal time, Dasha wanted to eat, but there was no food nearby for it to eat. Wu Zhongyuan gave him an idea and said that after leaving here, Dasha would take him to eat it quietly.

After dark, scorpions and snakes in the desert came out to feed, and their food was insects and rodents. There were few plants in the desert, and I don’t know what they made their living.

There is a dick here, and there are no poisonous insects nearby the three of them. The dick is also a nocturnal animal, so it will be vigil at night.

I stayed up all night, but the next day it was still windless, so I had no choice but to wait.

Dasha can survive for a long time without eating, and the dry food and drinking water that everyone brought was sufficient, at least half a month's amount, so it would be okay to wait here for a few days.

On the afternoon of the third day, the wind finally started to rise, but it was not the southeast wind that everyone expected, but the bitter west wind. The wind was very strong, and the yellow sand was sweeping on the face, which made it very painful.

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, yellow sand is everywhere, covering the clouds and sun. Although it is daytime, it is almost impossible to see your fingers. Fortunately, there is a big fool, it is very huge. Unexpectedly, the wind is blown away, and the four of them hide under its belly and rely on its protection.

All four of them were covered in dust at this time. Seeing that the three of them were in a mess, Wu Zhongyuan felt very guilty and caused them to suffer, and was very uneasy.

The wind blew in the afternoon and it didn't weaken until midnight. Looking around, the originally towering sand dunes had turned into a small dumpling, which had been peeled off for at least dozens of meters.
