Chapter 129 Life in the Desert
The desert seems to be always hot, and Hong Yang felt the same way before he came here.But at this time, it feels a little cool, and the climate seems to be quite pleasant.

Although the climate at the edge of the desert is a bit dry, it is indeed not too hot, but it is not too cool. This is just the feeling brought about by the psychological contrast.

Hong Yang and his party rode camels, telling jokes, and walking through the endless desert.According to the guide, you can encounter several oases all the way to the west, where you can replenish some water sources.

Hong Yang and the others didn't care too much, because they brought enough water, and the ultra-concentrated trace element water didn't take up much volume, which could guarantee them the water they needed for at least five months in the desert.Of course, this cannot be drunk for a long time, and still requires a lot of fresh water, and they also carry a lot.

The guide is not from country O, but from country M, but he has stayed in the desert for a long time, so he is very familiar with the desert, and it took some trouble to find him.

Hong Yang had never ridden a camel before. He found it very novel and interesting, and his emotions were extremely high. He completely regarded this trip as a trip.Of course, camels cannot be ridden for a long time, and part of the time must be walked. Fortunately, the speed is not too slow.

The most worrying thing in the desert is getting lost. Once lost, it can be said that it is extremely difficult to get out of the desert.But Hong Yang and the others were not too worried. Firstly, they had a good guide, and secondly, they had the map.

The map was brought by the leader of the Bai family. It is an imitation, but he still attaches great importance to it. He will not hand over the map to others. He will only take it out for observation when everyone discusses it occasionally.

Looking at the direction pointed on the map, it is obviously located in the center of the desert, and very few people can reach that area.The guide frowned when he saw the map, and seemed a little disbelieving, because he had been to this area before, but he didn't find any places like Shacheng and Tucheng, but he was sure of one thing, that area often There will be very strong sandstorms.

This made Hong Yang and Ren Feixiang look at each other, with deep worry in their eyes.It was a long time ago when the ruins of the Neromen tribe were last discovered. Will the ruins be submerged by sand and dust in such a long time?If that's the case, it's not easy to find the target, even with a map.

"Even if it is buried under the desert, the location will never change. As long as you get there, you should be able to find some clues no matter what." Hong Yang comforted.

Hong Yang was reminding Ren Feixiang that their trip was mainly to explore the road, not to mine, and it is very possible that they might not be able to bring anything back this trip.

Ren Feixiang nodded. He understood what Hong Yang meant, but his face showed disapproval, because Hong Yang's words were somewhat different from his ideas.

Hong Yang knew what Ren Feixiang had in mind. He didn't just want to explore the way, but wanted to know the secrets of the Nilemen so that his curiosity could be satisfied.So Hong Yang didn't say much, because it was useless to say it in front of Ren Feixiang's enthusiasm.

After marching for about five or six days, they came to a small oasis.Sure enough, as the guide said, there is a water source here, but when Hong Yang and the others saw many creatures swimming in the water, and the water quality was not very clear, they just felt sick. Is this kind of water drinkable?
"The water quality is already very good. This is running water. It can be drunk after being sterilized by sunlight. If you encounter a water source without living things, would you dare to drink it?"

When the guide asked such a question, Hong Yang and the others felt that it was reasonable, and stopped talking, and just continued to supply supplies in silence.But everyone has made up their minds that they will never drink this water unless there is no other way.

The water they brought was still enough, which was originally a spare, and it didn't matter.Only Xu Shan and Dong Qiang looked normal. Xu Shan caught a few scorpions from nowhere and lit a fire to roast them, with an extremely leisurely look.

Hong Yang glanced at Xu Shan, couldn't help but walked to her and sat down, watched her sprinkle the seasoning on the scorpion, and said: "You are very courageous, completely different from ordinary little girls."

"Nonsense, the first day you met me?" Xu Shan glanced at him.

Hong Yang smirked twice, then looked at Xu Shan roasting the scorpion.

Xu Shan's face was very calm, but her words were very serious: "You have to be mentally prepared, I think it will be very difficult in the future."

Hong Yang was taken aback, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Xu Shan was silent for a while, and then said: "I don't know, maybe it's a feeling, it won't be too smooth. Don't think that the desert is not scary now, so take it lightly, wait until the difficult time comes, if you don't have the mentality If you are prepared, it is easy to collapse, and that is too dangerous."

Hong Yang frowned. He found that he couldn't see through Xu Shan more and more, and felt that the girl in front of him was extremely mysterious.But he nodded and said, "I will. But from your tone, have you suffered in the desert before?"

"Probably." Xu Shan handed Hong Yang a baked scorpion, her face seemed to be recalling something, but judging by her expression, the memory should not be very good. "The desert is a terrible place."

is it scary?Perhaps, Hong Yang curled his lips, he believed that his determination was very firm, even if he encountered any difficulties, he would never give up lightly.At least, not worse than Xu Shan.

As he got deeper and deeper into the desert, Hong Yang gradually realized the horror of the desert.The feeling of heat began to attack this group of people, and the sand under the sun had long since become less lovely, and it made people feel dizzy, and the requirement for water became more and more terrifying.

And at night, even a boxer like Hong Yang felt that the bone-chilling cold was a bit hard to resist. It was much colder than in the deep mountains in autumn and winter, which made him have to cover up with more clothes, otherwise it would be really cold. It's hard to sleep, and the fire alone doesn't help.

"What the hell is this weather?"

Hong Yang couldn't help complaining, but he also knew that this was completely normal. The desert was hot in the daytime and cold in the night at this time of year, so there was really nothing to complain about.

When I opened the water bottle, I found that the water was completely frozen, and I couldn’t pour it out. In desperation, I drank a few more drops of concentrated water, which kept fogging in my mouth, and Hong Yang was as cold as a dog. Hehe, I couldn't help complaining again.

Ren Feixiang, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by Hong Yang's fuss and dozed off. He glanced at Hong Yang angrily, and said, "I used to think that you had suffered a lot and seen a lot of worlds, otherwise you wouldn't Maybe you have that kind of attainment in appraisal. But recently, I don’t feel like that’s the case, you guys are really hard to understand.”

Hong Yang was startled. He had to admit that although his family was not very good since he was a child, he often had small sufferings, but he rarely suffered big ones. What Ren Feixiang said was not wrong.But how could he admit such a thing?He couldn't help saying: "Who said I haven't suffered? It's just my first time entering the desert, so I don't get used to it. What's the matter?"

Ren Feixiang rolled his eyes, turned around and fell asleep again.

In the next period of time, Hong Yang also gradually got used to it, and stopped complaining, because this kind of complaint was really meaningless and would make others look down on him.Hong Yang also understands that as the environment becomes more and more difficult, the attitude of complaining will make the companions feel disgusted. This is not a good thing, so the most important thing is to be optimistic and maintain a good attitude. Very good looking.

Of course, it's okay to complain jokingly, but that's okay.

Unknowingly, Hong Yang and the others had gone deep into the desert, and the guide could no longer provide the exact route as before, because although he had been there before, his memory would not be very deep.Even if there is a map, the map is too old, there are no longitude and latitude, and there are not even many references, so you must be careful when you move forward.

"According to the map, if we walk for two more days, we should be able to reach a sand dune." Ren Feixiang looked at the map in front of him, and then said: "The guide also said that he has seen the sand dune, but it is much bigger than the one on the map." It's much bigger. And after this dune, we'll go to Mount Hasano, and we'll take a detour, is there any problem?"

Detour, everyone's eyelids twitched when they heard this word. It takes a lot of courage to make a detour in the desert.

"The guide said he bypassed it before, so I think there should be no problem." Ren Feixiang said.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, only Xu Shan still frowned, and said, "That guide came to this area a long time ago, and now he still has the memory of that time? Are you sure he can take us around?"

Ren Feixiang glanced at the guide not far away, frowned and said: "We can only trust him, and we must trust him. Otherwise, what do we want him to do? Otherwise, we can only cross Mount Hasano. I don't think this is a good idea." .”

Climbing a mountain is a very difficult thing, especially the bare rocky mountain. Although everyone here is not ordinary, there is no guarantee that something unexpected will happen, because no one has climbed that mountain.The detour is different, at least the guide has bypassed it, and it is relatively safer.

Xu Shan didn't say anything more, obviously acquiescing, but her expression still looked very worried.

Hong Yang glanced at her. He didn't know what Xu Shan was worried about, but he didn't think much about it.As Ren Feixiang said, the guide has been here before, so it is very reasonable to make such a choice, and will not take deliberate risks.

"Actually, I don't agree with detours." After the discussion, Xu Shan said to Hong Yang alone.

"why?"

"Because it's a waste of time." Xu Shan said.

It was a very simple and straightforward reason, which made Hong Yang not know what to say.Although he also knew how extravagant it was to waste time in the desert, he also fully agreed with the view that safety comes first in everything, so he didn't take Xu Shan's words seriously.

Seeing the look on Hong Yang's face, Xu Shan sighed and turned to leave. When she turned around, her face became more worried, but Hong Yang didn't see it.
