Chapter 44
The scorching sun is still baking the earth.

Looking at a deserted Gobi Desert, the two walked forward with difficulty.

It was the first time to cross such an area, and the harsh conditions made Li Jie a little dizzy, but her stubborn character made her grit her teeth again.

Tang Yi on the other side is not having a good time now, because his physical fitness has dropped sharply, and in order to save water, he hardly drinks much water.

He was severely dehydrated, and he still suffered from pain all over his body. Not to mention the water source, he couldn't even see a single animal along the way.

Chewing some bitter leaves, this low shrub is very difficult to find in this Gobi Desert.

Soothe the dryness in his mouth, but Tang Yi is not a camel, so eating this kind of thing is definitely useless.

"careful!"

When Li Jie was in a daze, suddenly Tang Yi's voice came, which made her tremble, but when she realized it, she realized that she had caused a catastrophe.

They were climbing over a dirt slope at this time, and my foot stepped on a dirt bag, and at a place less than ten centimeters away from my calf, the khaki-colored scorpion was already holding its tail high, towards She came over.

The yellow fat-tailed scorpion, the third of the top ten poisonous scorpions, would cause serious trouble after being stung by it, but it was only a millisecond, and it would be too late to raise one's feet.

Just when she was about to be hit, a figure suddenly rushed over from behind her.

"what!"

As soon as Tang Yi grasped the palm-sized yellow fat-tailed scorpion, at the same time, the yellow fat-tailed scorpion's tail stabbed into his tiger's mouth.

With a scream, Tang Yi's other hand's triangular army thorn pierced through its body, cutting off its tail abruptly.

"You were stung, what to do!"

Li Jie hastily squatted down and looked at the tail stuck in Tang Yi's tiger's mouth. I am afraid that its toxin had entered Tang Yi's blood vessels at this moment.

"What should I do? I finally got something to eat. Of course, eat it quickly. It's true to fill your stomach quickly!"

Unexpectedly, Tang Yi took off the scorpion's tail from his hand indifferently, stuffed it into his mouth, and handed the scorpion's body to Li Jie.

Looking at Tang Yi who was chewing on the scorpion's tail, Li Jie was stunned. First of all, the way he eats is really terrible, and secondly, this is a poisonous scorpion.

"You still have the mood to eat now, you are poisoned!"

As soon as he grasped Tang Yi's wrist, Li Jie said with wide eyes in horror.

"Don't worry, this toxin is nothing compared to the mandala in my body. Maybe I'm a poisonous person now. This toxin won't work at all. Stop talking nonsense and eat it quickly." Alright, add some energy, I'll see if there's another baby nearby!"

After breaking off the two front claws, Tang Yi threw them into his mouth without any waste, but Li Jie on the opposite side still didn't move.

"Don't forget that we are soldiers. If we want to go out alive, we must eat. If you 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 Jie with contempt, but the last sentence really hurt Li Jie's nerves.

"Who said I dare not!"

After snatching the scorpion from Tang Yi's hand, Li Jie put it in his mouth and began to chew, enduring the feeling of his stomach being overwhelmed.

"That's about the same, I'll look for it again!"

Tang Yi nodded in satisfaction. This little girl really needs to be provoked to believe it. Tang Yi turned around and continued to look for the scorpion, but he didn't see the tears of grievance in the corner of Li Jie's eyes.

She was strong and quickly wiped away her tears. This was the first time she ate a living thing, but she also knew that she had to do so in order to live.

In less than half an hour, Tang Yi found seven scorpions nearby and swallowed their tails and claws. Tang Yi forced Li Jie to eat three more.

"Okay, at least I can stand for a while. I just saw the footprints of camels and people. There may be villages going forward. It would be great if I could live there!"

Tang Yi waved her hand at Li Jie. She hadn't spoken since she ate the scorpion.

It's not that she doesn't want to say it, but because she feels like vomiting when she opens her mouth. As an agent, she really can't imagine how strong this kind of special forces' ability to survive in the wild is.

"We call snake meat meat, scorpions are called meat slices, ants are called minced meat, and mice are called meat eggs. These four kinds of food are still good, at least you know they are edible. These things are not easy to find in the jungle, so we They will eat praying mantises and lizards, and the worst thing is to find earthworms to eat, and it’s the same as eating soil when they are in their mouths, so I don’t understand why fish still like to eat earthworms!”

While walking, Tang Yi said to Li Jie who was beside her, these words almost made her spit out.

"Can you shut up!"

This guy definitely did it on purpose. Up to now, there was still a fishy smell in his mouth. He couldn't help but took a sip of water and suppressed the feeling of vomiting. Li Jie gave Tang Yi a hard look.

Hearing this, Tang Yi could only smile and shrug his shoulders.

People say that soldiers are majestic, but they don't know how much they suffered and suffered in order to survive on the battlefield.

"There are villages!"

After walking for about three hours, after turning over a hillside, a mountain village appeared in front of them, which attracted the attention of two people.

This is a slightly lower basin, and the green vegetation is more lush. Looking at the houses built with hay and mud, there are actually modern sheds, which makes both of them very excited.

You can't bring a gun, Tang Yi found a gap to hide the gun in it, and then walked down the hillside with Li Jie.

Li Jie was still a little apprehensive, after all, would it be a little abrupt for them to visit so rashly, but he didn't want Tang Yi to go up and chat with the locals, and the locals actually laughed.

"As long as you praise their true gods, they will happily accept you. Perhaps this is the simplicity of the closed mountain village!"

The arrival of the two brought the locals together. At this time, the sun was about to set, and everyone came back from their work.

"Why are they all old?"

Warmly greeted them to have dinner together, Li Jie looked suspiciously at the more than 30 people in front of him, all of them were old people.

Not to mention young and strong, there is not even a child, which is too strange.

"They were all taken away by the Youth Army!"

Speaking of this matter, the old people looked lonely. Although the village was already closed, it still couldn't stop the youth army like a plague.

All the young and strong were taken away, even those seven or eight-year-old children were taken into exile, and women were even taken into slavery.

In the entire mountain village, only these old people are left, and they are also in danger.
