Chapter 156

Stamping his feet on the hot sand, Zhou Lingfeng suddenly felt that the constant cursing when he first came to the desert was a bit ridiculous.How pleasant and real this burning pain is, it is simply a kind of enjoyment!

Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhou Lingfeng took out two fruits from his pocket and ate them with Jiu'er. By the way, he counted the number of fruits, and then wrapped Jiu'er and his feet with cloth strips for the later stage. Be prepared for a long walk.After doing this, he looked up at the sun, roughly estimated the direction, then took Jiu'er's hand and walked towards the west side.

He decided to forget everything about the cave.Whether it's the lava river, the "living skeleton", or even Jiu'er's strange behavior at that moment, these are not important.The important thing is that he is still alive, and Jiu'er is still by his side.

Climbing up a sand dune that is not short in height, Zhou Lingfeng put his hands in front of his eyebrows to block the glare of the sun, carefully observing the surrounding terrain.The hole they climbed out of was located in the middle of a heavily weathered rock, and this rock was one of the many surrounding rocks, and it was the most basic part of the Yardang landform.According to his observation, the color of this Yadan Grotto is a bit whitish, and the scale is also very extensive. It is somewhat similar to the place he first explored, and it is likely to be a remnant of Bailongdui.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Lingfeng felt that his current location should not be too far from the original camp. Although he was in an inexplicable state after falling into the quicksand pit, it was impossible for the amazing nature to send him out. Hundreds of miles.If you can find the marker that you wrote down carefully at that time, you can basically go back to the camp.As long as he gets there, with the route map printed in his mind, he can find a way to return to human society. [

Having made up his mind, Zhou Lingfeng reconfirmed his position, then dragged Jiu'er down the sand dune, and headed north along the strangely shaped stones.Not long after walking, he found a sheltered place under a rock, and Dang even decided to camp here temporarily.Wait for the sun to go down before starting the real trek.

A few hours later, the night ruled the entire sky, Zhou Lingfeng took Jiu'er away from the temporary camp, and walked towards the direction of memory by stepping on the moonlight.The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge. At noon, the sand can boil eggs, and at midnight, the temperature here can freeze them like ice.Zhou Lingfeng and Jiu'er, who were naked, soon couldn't bear the cold and could only stop their progress.They temporarily found a place sheltered from the wind and huddled together, tremblingly waiting for the dawn to come.

In this way, the two rushed for a certain distance in the early morning and after sunset, and kept looking for a temporary camp sheltered from the wind during the rest of the time.There were less and less fruit in his pocket, so Zhou Lingfeng had to let Jiu'er eat one every day, while he only ate one every two days.When there were only the last two fruits left in his pocket, he finally saw the strange rock in his memory.Excited, he immediately pulled Jiu'er and ran wildly, heading straight to where the original camp was.

Those camels have long since disappeared, and the original tent was also buried in the sand.Zhou Lingfeng lifted the canvas and found that the backpack and other things had been taken away, presumably by Xiao Zhao who was fighting fiercely with him at that time.It is estimated that Xiao Zhao still wants to find some clues in those items, but he is destined to find only disappointment.There was also some dry food and a few clothes in the tent.It is estimated that Xiao Zhao thought it was useless after checking it, so he threw it aside.However, these things have a lot of effects on Zhou Lingfeng.He picked out some clothes and handed them to Jiu'er, and told her to change them, then he went to a rock beside the camp and squatted down, picked up the shovel he found in the tent and started digging.

Zhou Lingfeng, who has many years of experience in intelligence combat, can be described as a treacherous and cunning man. Of course he would not put all his "eggs" in one "basket".After killing that guide, he buried some of the gold bars and "medicine" here.Some food and drinking water were even buried.

It didn't take long for Zhou Lingfeng to dig out the things he had buried, and he couldn't help but secretly lamented the convenience of burying things in the desert.There is nothing wrong with firearms and medicine, and the gold bars are naturally safe.The food must be inedible, and there is still some drinking water in the sealed pot, but it is only two or three mouthfuls.Fortunately, they still have two fruits brought out from the cave.For Zhou Lingfeng.As long as the gun is found, everything behind will be easy to handle.

Zhou Lingfeng and Jiu'er took out the last two fruits and ate them one by one, and then lay down in the tent that was erected again.At night, Zhou Lingfeng simply tidied up.Then he took Jiu'er on the journey again.His destination was the nearest trade route, according to the guide, there were always some tea merchants passing by there.

Two days later, they came near the trade road.Zhou Lingfeng waited until midnight with hunger, and finally saw a caravan of ten camels coming from a distance, and he couldn't help sighing his good luck in his heart.He hastily made Jiu'er lie on the ground as he had taught him earlier, while he pretended to be struggling and sat down next to her, waiting for the camel caravan to approach.

Travelers in the desert are always much kinder than other places.Everyone who has personally floated and sunk in the sand sea and witnessed the violent wind and sand will have an extra respect for nature, and will naturally feel pity for the same weak kind, no matter whether he has a pious belief or not.It is a pity that the evil in human nature is washed away by natural law.Some people will realize the purity of life after sharpening, while others will dig out the ugliness behind the soul after suffering.

Zhou Lingfeng obviously belongs to the latter.The hardships and tribulations of the past few days not only failed to reduce his ferocity, but made him more ferocious.For the moment, he was mostly satisfied with shooting the three travelers who were going to help him, and even a little pleased that his acting skills had improved.The only thing that made him a little unhappy was that he was worried that the excessive blood would scare Jiu'er.However, his worries were obviously unnecessary.During the whole bloody process, Jiu'er was only a little startled by the sudden gunshots, but didn't react to the corpses lying on the sand.It seems that in her eyes, creatures other than Zhou Lingfeng can be ignored, whether they are dead or alive.

Zhou Lingfeng was a little surprised by this indifference, but more pleased.Of course, the thing that made him most happy at the moment was not this, but that they finally had a camel team that could take them to the place where the people lived.After filling the stomachs of himself and Jiu'er with the food brought by the camel team, Zhou Lingfeng also boiled a pot of hot water and tasted the tea leaves carried by the camels.It wasn't until he was completely satisfied physically and mentally that he carried Jiu'er onto the camel, and drove the camel team towards the nearest settlement.

Three days later, Zhou Lingfeng and Jiu'er arrived in a small town.After inquiring about some news for the first time, he was horrified to find that nearly eighteen months had passed since he first entered the desert.What frightened him even more was that the land under his feet now belonged to a brand new China, and the party he was loyal to had already fled this continent and fled to the island on the other side of the strait to survive.

This discovery made Zhou Lingfeng numb for a long time, and couldn't help thinking about what he should do.His parents died early, and he has been reduced to the streets since he was a few years old, so he is naturally homeless now.Although Li Tianyao, who picked him up from the street, treated him not badly, in the final analysis, he also planned to have another subordinate who could be considerate and dedicated to his life. I have repaid the love of nurturing him by going through life and death for him all these years.What's more, although I escaped death in the desert, I didn't even touch the edge of that so-called "top secret mission", let alone whether I could take Jiu'er to the other side of the strait under the current environment. Go, even if he ran over, Li Tianyao probably didn't have a place for himself to live in.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhou Lingfeng couldn't find a place to go.Although this world is vast, it is not a spherical desert to him, and there is no difference anywhere.

The turning point of fate is always full of drama.Just when Zhou Lingfeng was at a loss, a few men with knives and sticks suddenly jumped out from the corner of the street, rushing towards them noisily.Although he couldn't understand what these people were yelling, judging from their expressions and movements, Zhou Lingfeng suddenly felt that his killing and robbing of camels might have revealed something. After leaving the things in his own house, he brought someone to him to settle the score.

Zhou Lingfeng cursed secretly, and immediately picked up Jiu'er and jumped onto the camel.Estimated the distance secretly in his heart, he pretended not to know so he stayed where he was, and when he was waiting for the opponent to approach, he suddenly took out his pistol and shot randomly, then took advantage of the opportunity of the opponent's back on his back and rushed out of the encirclement, taking half of the The camel team drove away.

There are not many people in this small town, and there are not many guns in their hands.From the moment Zhou Lingfeng escaped from the siege, he was in a bright future, and there was not even a single pursuer behind him.He narrowly escaped the catastrophe, but his heart became active.He thought to himself that he could go anywhere anyway, so why not take advantage of the world's initial infancy and become a bandit in the desert far away from the emperor.When the oil and water on hand are enough, I will take Jiu'er to find a way to run abroad, maybe I can go to the United States, where the foreign monks are constantly praising, to see the world of flowers.

A small camel team composed of ten camels inexplicably became a switchman of fate.Not only did it trigger two tragedies that resulted in the death of several people, but it also indirectly pointed out a new direction for a desperate military special agent, creating a bandit leader who has been doing harm to one side for several years.
