Old Hu could only think of other ways, and see if he could find a water source without revealing his identity.

Old Hu saw that everyone was silent, and he spoke first:

"Everyone, the current problem is very serious. There is not much water left. Let's brainstorm and see if there is any solution."

Hao Aiguo sat on the ground and echoed weakly:

"Comrade Xiao Hu is right. We can't even last a day with the water we have now. We can't go that far at all."

"Everyone think about it and see if there are other ways."

Ye Yixin stared at An Liman who was silent, and there was still a trace of luck in his heart. He asked tentatively:

"Uncle An Liman, what you said just now, you are not joking, right?"

Hao Aiguo thought there was hope, and looked at An Liman and said:

"Yes, this situation can't be joked."

Shirley Yang had just received an accurate answer from Li Daoxuan, but Li Daoxuan said that he could only take her alone at most.

So what should Professor Chen and the others do? Now we can only hope that Anliman, the living map in the desert, can help us find water.

"Uncle Anliman, you have the most experience here. Do you know where to find water?"

Anliman looked at everyone and explained seriously:

"There are indeed many water sources in the desert, but I am not sure I can find them. I still have to rely on luck."

Old Hu looked at the map and pointed to a place and said:

"Anliman, come and see, this place is marked on the map."

"There is a river here, not far from our location. Are you sure there is water here?"

He just asked Li Daoxuan for his opinion. Li Daoxuan told him that he could only sense a radius of ten kilometers, and he still needed to follow them to the Jingjue Ancient City.

He could only follow the team first, but the biggest problem now was to find water first.

An Liman shook his head and answered uncertainly:

"I can't be sure, we have to go and see it."

"It's the windy season now, the desert is windy and the sand dunes move fast. Unless there is a stable water source all year round, it may be buried by sand this year if it was there last year."

Shirley Yang nodded and said:

"That is to say, it is very likely that we will not be able to find water even if we search for a day and a half."

An Liman nodded and agreed with Shirley Yang's statement.

Professor Chen said weakly:

"It's too risky to look for an uncertain water source when there is no water."

Chu Jian looked at everyone and expressed his thoughts:

"We can return the same way, save water, and it should be no problem to hold on for three days."

Ye Yixin nodded in agreement:

"Yes, although it will be more difficult, we will definitely make it through."

Hao Aiguo thought for a while, looked at Professor Chen's tired body and said:

"Young people can still hold on, but Professor Chen's body may not be able to hold on."

Professor Chen waved his hand and said:

"Don't worry about me, I haven't reached the point where I can't hold on without water for three days."

Old Hu immediately objected. Professor Chen's health was already very poor. If he didn't drink water in the desert, he was afraid that there would be one less person in the team.

"Professor Chen, you may not understand that if you don't drink water for a day in the desert, your life will be in danger."

Chu Jian thought about it, and said after some consideration:

"Brother Hu, why don't we try to go back? If Professor Chen and the female comrades can't hold on, we still have camels."

"We can kill camels!"

When An Liman heard Chu Jian say that he wanted to kill his camel, his face turned pale instantly. The fat man had killed one of his camels before, which almost killed him.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yixin objected immediately:

"If we kill the camels, we will have to walk. Without a means of transportation, no one can get out."

Chu Jian said:

"Only kill one, and don't kill the others."

The fat man interrupted at this time:

"Okay, okay, everyone should be optimistic. It is possible that we can find other water sources on the way back."

Old Hu also agreed:

"Yes, let's not panic. Killing camels is an extreme behavior under extreme circumstances."

Professor Chen said weakly:

"I know my own body well. As I get older, I naturally consume less energy."

"Objectively speaking, it would be safer to return along the original route. It may be more difficult if there is not enough water, but it may not be necessary to kill camels."

"Let's all work hard and be patient. Persistence is victory."

Seeing Professor Chen's sincere words, Old Hu had no choice but to nod helplessly:

"Now that things have come to this, there is no other way but to hurry up and get on the road."Everyone nodded in agreement. Lao Hu then walked up to Anliman and whispered:

"Anliman, don't worry, we won't kill the camels. Let's turn back and return to the original route."

Anliman turned his head, his eyes full of gratitude, and said to Lao Hu:

"Thank you."

So, everyone rode on camels and, under the leadership of Anliman, set out on the return journey to find a new water source.

After walking for half a day, Anliman looked at the surrounding environment and felt very familiar.

He pulled the reins to stop the camel under him, and the camels behind him also squatted down with the leader camel.

Li Daoxuan sensed the surroundings, and immediately chuckled and sighed. This group of people really didn't deserve to die.

Seven or eight kilometers ahead, there was a dilapidated ruins.

Li Daoxuan used his soul to sense it and found that there was a well in the ruins, and next to the well was a stone door.

He pondered for a moment, remembered the plot he had seen in his previous life, and realized that this might be the mysterious tomb of the ancient Mo prince.

Li Daoxuan immediately sent a message to Lao Hu, Fatty, and Yingzi:

"Lao Hu, Fatty, Yingzi, they are really lucky, there is a well in front."

"Really lucky, they can find water when they are thirsty."

Fatty and Lao Hu heard Li Daoxuan's message and looked at each other. Both of them showed admiration for this group of people. They were able to turn their luck around at this time.

Anliman got off the camel, observed the surrounding environment, and then muttered to the leading camel:

"Xiaohong, do you still remember this place?"

How could the camel speak? Anliman turned his head and looked at the surrounding environment again. The more he looked, the more familiar it felt.

Old Hu walked up to Anliman and remembered what Li Daoxuan had just said about there being water here. He reminded him:

"Anliman, what's wrong with you? Is there any problem? Did you find water?"

Anliman came back to his senses and showed an awkward smile on his face. He took a deep breath and said:

"I think this looks very familiar. I remembered the place where the white camel saved me. There should be a water source nearby."
