Chapter 85: Desert night

-
Under the starry sky, a sharp sandy ridge line extended far away, submerged into the dark night.
You don't need to follow a straight line to walk through the desert on foot, but you must follow the sand ridge line, and it is best to use the sand ridge line of the highest nearby sand dune, because only by stepping on the high point can you overlook the overall situation and determine the position to the greatest extent.
Tell Lianer this little tip before setting off. At that time she nodded and said, "Well, I think so too."
Practicing children will not accompany others at will. If she said that, she must really think so. Most of the knowledge of others comes from accumulation, and her ability is more like gifted intuition, or the so-called heavenly pride. I used to get used to it in the morning, so I smiled and said nothing more.
Mr. Tie originally wanted to follow along. After all, his internal strength is strong and long. Although he is not as good as practicing, he may not be inferior to me. Later he did not insist, probably because before I set out, I whispered to him: "Please You keep watching the camel team. "
The old man may be able to wait for us, but the guides are not necessarily true. Besides, they were scared by the trainers before. Once there is any change in life, who knows if he will drive the camel to grow? Defensive mind is indispensable. At this point, I have always been implementing it subconsciously.
After that, it was the rush of the night owl.
It is often difficult to climb to the top of a steep sand dune. This is a strenuous task for ordinary people. Fortunately, it is not a problem for us. The light-weight effort that I worked hard in my youth was fully sent to the night. Use it, go all out, and finally let yourself not drag too much hind legs.
I and Lianer galloped on the sand one after the other. In order to be safe, they always kept a distance from each other when they were traveling. They would only talk together when they stopped to distinguish the direction. It ’s easy to get lost in the desert. So such a stop will be carried out once in a while.
Without a convenient tool, I rely on that little knowledge to distinguish myself. Fortunately, my past experience is still in my mind. The desert night sky is dazzling with stars, and it is not difficult to find a reliable positioning point. I also had detailed questions about the guide before. And inquire, so it is not difficult to make a reasonable judgment.
As for the practice side, she couldn't say anything, but when the two phases proved, the answers given were often highly consistent with my side, and occasionally there was a slight deviation, which was just a little bit.
Whenever this happens, she always asks me to listen to her, and as long as I don't see obvious problems, I have no objection.
However, the so-called difference is absolutely ridiculous, and even if the child is confident again, in fact, no one can be sure that it is absolutely error-free.
"Practice, a little, cough, wait a minute."
When descending to the end of another winding sandy ridge, I gave a head cough and greeted me first and stopped. Except for a short identification of the direction, I ran around the sand sea for more than two moments. At this time, the moon was overhanging his head at this time, and the night was already very dark, so: "If you count the feet, it's almost ... it's time to get in position? Next, you can't just hurry up with your stuffy head ... keke ... ... "
After speaking a word, I coughed several times. The desert was cool at night. Although I was blessed to catch the road, there was hot air all over my body at this moment, so that people could not feel a little chill. The inhalable cold wind still made my throat uncomfortable. .
"Well, that's what it is." Compared with her unstable breath, the girl a few steps away is completely in a different state. After answering with a reckless gesture, she jumped up and jumped up to the top of the sandy ridge again. After looking around a few times, he came back and said, "I saw all sand nearby and nothing, but there is a higher sand mountain not far away. We can go there and look around."
I was taking the opportunity to adjust my breath, so naturally I could n’t answer. I just nodded in the direction that she was pointing, and then straightened up. Just when I wanted to go, I listened to her and said, "Before that, take a break, tired. . "
tired? When she looked up, she saw that Lianer had casually sat down and was unpacking the water sac around her waist. How could she be tired? Obviously the atmosphere didn't catch a few breaths, unless ...
After the reaction came, she smiled heartily, walked to her and sat down.
She was really tired, and it should not be herself.
I chuckled softly beside her, and I did n’t even listen to the exercises. I just drank the water sac and gurgle and drank. After a few sips, I wiped my mouth with my backhand, but handed the bag to me in a stun. "Drink water."
The two of us were sitting close together, and her hand almost touched my mouth. I had to crook backwards, avoiding the cowhide bag to see her eyes, then shook her head and laughed, "No need , I haven't finished it myself. "
In order to prove that it was true, when I said this, I shook my own water sac around my waist, and indeed there were more than half a bag left in my mouth, but I heard that the voice was raised. Raising her eyebrows and handing the bag closer, she cried, "I know there is a lot left. □ □ You haven't moved a bit after the wind. Naturally, do you want to hold it to thirst yourself? Drink water!"
I didn't expect her to be so observant, I was dumb, and I was a little pleased with this concern, and now I will no longer quit, silently arousing the corner of my mouth and taking the water pouch.
Looking up, carrying a few days of fresh water has long lost its original cleanliness and sweetness, but it is the most precious thing at the moment, holding a small point on the mouth of the bag, it is considered to be wet lips, and then do a few swallows Action, finally removed, with a smile to return the water bag to her.
I do n’t know if I was spotted, and Lianer did n’t say much when he picked it up, just glanced at it, his complexion seemed to change a little, but at the end he just said,
Go, keep looking.
After finishing speaking, he stood up and tightened the water bladder. Striding away from your waist.
I relaxed my mind, and quickly got up to follow her.
After taking a nap, we set off again. The goal is the "higher sand mountain" in the mouth of Lianer. It stands on the north side, with a steep like a knife, especially looking from the bottom of the slope. The peak seems to be high into the sky. If ordinary people come to climb, they may have to make a big bend, otherwise they will not be able to climb at all.
Even the martial arts person who knows how to lift the body lightly, it is immediately judged high and low here. The is too great. Once I stepped on, the yellow sand either slipped or sunk, and it was extremely difficult. I had to take a slightly roundabout way. You can go up smoothly when you use the word method, but you do n’t need to bother to practice, but seeing her standing up from the steepest side of the sand wall, a few rises and falls, she disappeared directly on the sand mountain.
Because of this, by the time she jumped to the top of the sandy ridge, she had been standing there for a while.
Looking at the night sky from afar, the girl who was standing still towards a prescription, sank heartily, I walked to her without a word, and looked out of that sight, and saw a place under the sand mountain Strange.
This should only be regarded as a sunken pit. The oval shape, small and small, looks dark and dull under the bright moonlight, and is surrounded by the sandy sea that is slightly white around it. Comparison.
The edge of the round pit still has some black and unshaped things. The east and west masses are lying in the sand everywhere. I think it should be a reed-like plant. Similarly, there is even a small poplar tree, looking down. Everything, lying peacefully under the stars, looked extraordinarily ... desolate.
What I really fear is more and more. After a short while, I sighed and said, "If this is what the guide calls the so-called small lake, then it seems that we are running for nothing."
"wrong……"
Unexpectedly, the girl shook her head at this moment and raised an objection: "Here, there is a smell of water."
After finishing this sentence, Lian Er stomped his feet, and regained his figure again, like a meteor crossing the sky, and his eyes fell to the pit under the sand mountain. I naturally went together Fortunately, it was difficult to get up, but it was easy to go down. There were no two take-offs and landings on the ground.
This place is slightly depressed around the height of one person. The sand on the ground is harder and harder than the other places. It even mixes some small stones. I squatted down and grabbed the sand and rubbed it. I shook my head: "Dry."
"Changing somewhere." Lianer Shen said, walking towards it, the more stones he walked towards the middle, gradually getting a little lame. After walking to the same place, I squatted down again and poke away a few small stones. I grabbed the sand and rubbed it again, this time it felt a little different.
"It's trendy ... or worth a try ..." I didn't dare to be too early. After he said this to Lianer, he pulled out the short sword around his waist, replaced it with a sword, and started digging the ground.
Although it is slightly harder to step on than other places, after all, the geology is dominated by yellow sand, which can be easily digged. The more you dig down, the more obvious the tide is and the color of the sand is not the same.
But if we go further, it seems to be limited to this.
When I was wondering if I hadn't dug deep enough, I was stunned and pulled up by the people on the side, "Okay." Lianer said, "Even if you can dig out some water in the end, it is useless, that point. What makes the muddy water enough? It's not enough to make up for your hard work, don't make it. "
"How should that be?" I frowned and asked her, Lian Er shook her head and did not answer, but slowly walked around. This dry lake pit is not that big. I walked behind her and watched She seemed to be looking for something.
Or believe the girl's gifted instincts. When it comes to water and gas, she really hoped. Before excavating the ground, it was because of this. After being stopped, she saw that she didn't give up. I know what I'm looking for, but I'm also willing to walk around with her. It's already about this step, and staying a little longer will not be worse.
After wandering like this for a while, the girl's eyes suddenly lighted suddenly under the moonlight, and she listened to the trainer and said, "Yes there!" There was joy in the voice, and I ran to a place with a hand in my hand.
It was a dry reed bush on the edge of a lake pit, and the sandstone wall close to half a human's height fell on top of it. It looked no different from the surrounding bunch of dry reeds. She was pulled over by her in doubt, and walked very close. I can't see any difference in it. It wasn't until Lian'er fiddled with it a bit, and I found out that in the bright moonlight, under the scorching light of the large block, there seemed to be some dark colors.
Lianer stretched out his hand and pulled out one of them: "It's green, it's alive."
As a reminder of her discovery, I immediately leaned over and grabbed a handful of sand on the ground, but it was not wet at all in my hands. "Strange ..." Undead, he stretched out his hand again to poke away the thick reeds, and touched the sandstone wall half a human tall, only to find that the thin yellow sand layer was actually hard rock. Move away a little more, but immediately jumped up and took a step back.
"What's wrong!" At that time, Lianer was looking elsewhere, and when he saw the situation, he immediately floated over side by side, and the sword in his hand was in a state of scabbard.
"No, it's nothing," I settled, and shook my head with a smile, and replied, patting her sword-holding hand, and then came forward and leaned back to try to pry off the thick bushes of reeds, motioning her to see: Seeing such a hole was a bit overreacting. "
It was indeed a dark hole, which was almost close to the ground at the bottom of the sand and stone wall, because the hole was really small and covered with layers of dead reeds. If it was not completely opened, it would not be visible at all.
Lianer was unwilling to drill the reed bushes and simply pulled his sword two or three times to remove the obstructing plants. Then he leaned over and looked at it flatly: "Yes, the surrounding area is the most humid here. There is water, I'll go and see. "
She said that she had a good temper. When she had finished this sentence, she stood up and lifted her clothes. She was about to jump, and anxiously, I caught her hand and said, "Wait a minute, you said you want to go down?" Not afraid to let go, the other hand touched a stone randomly on the ground, and threw it into this small hole about the diameter of one person.
The stone went into the hole, but in the darkness, I heard that Ding Ding Dang continued to roll down all the way, and it got deeper and deeper. At the end, I couldn't even hear an echo.
"You still want to go down?" I asked with a calm face, but saw that she still nodded, and said with confidence: "I'm not a rock, naturally I can go up and down. There may be water underneath. You also dug three feet before. What you're looking for, you don't have to think about it now, eh? "
I have to admit that at this point, practicing children really dominate the truth.
After a brief pause, I gritted my teeth and stood up and said, "Well, change it down, and you'll be good at it."
The situation is compelled to do nothing, but I do not know the depth of the hole. There are several dangers in it. Rather than watching and waiting on it, suffering from imagination, it is better to go and explore it for yourself.
Where did the words come, but Lianer gave a slight smile, squinting and glanced at him: "You go down? Listen to it, what's the truth? Is your light work better than me? Or martial arts better than me? Where is there in the world? Such a reason, not to mention that there must be a lot of darkness in this hole, can't you see it? "
There is no way to refute, for the first time in his life, there is no way to refute the child's words.
By the way, I forgot that she is no longer a child.
Or proud of being able to make the other party speechless, at the end, Lianer actually reached out and touched my head, Yingying chuckled: "Then you stay here obediently, and wait for me to come out it is good."

But at the last time, practicing is really ... happy ... 开心
