Could it be that ・・・・・・ these trial missions have to go through such bad weather?

Seeing the lightning flashing in the sky in the distance, as well as the rumbling thunder, Lu Yang couldn't help but have an idea. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

If there's no rain here, it doesn't mean there's no rain in the land of lightning strikes, right? Maybe it's raining there, but it's too far away, so it's only windy and rainy.

Another lightning bolt fell from the sky, and Lu Yang initially estimated that the lightning was at least dozens of kilometers away from him, and it was difficult to walk in the sand, and it would take at least ten hours to rush over.

Lu Yang is now sleepy and tired, and he wants to sleep, but he is very worried that once he falls asleep, he will either be buried in the ground by the wind and sand, or he will be dried in the sand by the sun tomorrow.

So, if you don't want to die, just go over there.

Before leaving this time, Lu Yang ate one-third of the food he got when he entered the mission, and drank half a liter of water, now that the temperature is low, after the water enters the body, it will not evaporate as quickly as during the day.

Lu Yang's body was as dry as red-hot charcoal, and when half a liter of water entered his body, every cell was like a sponge, scrambling to absorb every water molecule, and Lu Yang even heard his dry internal organs like fire, and the sizzling sound made after encountering the water.

Although Lu Yang wanted to drink the pot of water in one gulp, in order to last longer, he still took the kettle away from his mouth and screwed the lid tightly.

After eating, drinking, Lu Yang went on the road, for many people in the modern city, this kind of suffering is very unbearable, but Lu Yang has no parents since he was a child, and he has suffered all kinds of hardships.

In this situation, it is estimated that many people will choose to give up because they can't stand it, but Lu Yang did not give up, he set big goals for himself as he did when he was a porter and decorator, and also decomposed some medium-term goals and short-term goals.

I remember when I was seventeen years old・・・・・・ there was a time when there were about 30 boxes of tiles to be moved to the seventh floor, of course, this is a big goal, Lu Yang took every ten boxes of tiles as a medium-term goal, and every trip as a short-term goal, so he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Later, when he was exhausted and could barely move, Lu Yang reorganized his short-term goals, and every time he went up to the next floor, he made a short-term goal, so as to give himself encouragement and the confidence to persevere.

And now, Lu Yang's big goal, of course, is to go to the land of thunder and lightning, there are no road signs in the desert where the lights are blind, there are no references, and the medium-term goal is not easy to determine, so Lu Yang temporarily regards every 30,000 steps as a medium-term goal...... About ten kilometers of appearance.

500 steps has become a short-term goal, as long as you go far 60 short-term goals, and complete three to four medium-term goals, you can almost reach your destination.

After setting the goal, Lu Yang went on the road very firmly, striding forward with one deep foot and one shallow foot, although his body had long been out of strength, although his legs and feet were almost unconscious due to excessive fatigue, his steps were still extremely firm.

Soon a short-term goal was reached.

Lu Yang gave himself a reward...... Take a sip of water・・・・・・ very small sip of water, almost just a sip of water to moisten your throat.

When he reaches his mid-term goal, he rewards himself with a slightly larger sip of water...

This kind of reward is very tempting for an extremely thirsty body.

The second 500 steps......

The third 500 steps......

Walk, walk, walk......

Truly.

Fatigue seems to have passed the limit, and drowsiness is temporarily dispelled by the cold.

It's a really long road.

However, compared to the road of life, this is only a short moment.

Lu Yang knew that after this hardship, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, he might be able to lie on a comfortable bed and eat and drink deliciously.

When he was working before, Lu Yang thought so.

If there is hope in the heart, there will be no despair, and those who have endured all kinds of hardships will have endurance beyond ordinary people.

No matter how far away the destination is, the moment it finally arrives.

Soon after Lu Yang completed the first medium-term goal, a very sad scene happened・・・・・・

The lightning and thunder stopped.

Without the lightning and thunder, Lu Yang would not be able to accurately grasp the direction, and he would not be able to grasp the direction, and he would probably walk back to the original starting point by walking in the dark in this desert.

Lu Yang stood quietly in the darkness, and almost all the hope ignited in his heart was transformed into despair.

He was so tired.

I'm so tired that I can't wait to fall asleep when I fall into the sand.

Previously, with the support of goals and hopes, he had been persevering, but now that the goal was suddenly gone, the hope was gone, and there was no hope, and fatigue pressed over like a mountain, making Lu Yang almost give up.

What to do?

Lu Yang suddenly recalled one thing......

It was ・・・・・・ when he was climbing Mount Emma, that snowstorm night, he chose two places to dig ice and camp, curled up and sat all night, and the next morning, when the snow stopped, he was surprised to find that there was a flat ground less than a few meters above his campsite where they could lie down and rest・・・・・・

Sometimes, it may be a small step away from the goal, but you give up, so you miss it.

Maybe ・・・・・・ this desert ・・・・・・ a hundred steps further and you can leave?

It would be miserable enough to lie down on the spot and find that you are at the edge of the desert tomorrow morning and you are too weak to get up and walk there.

Even if there is no lightning or thunder to guide the way, you can still try to continue in the previous direction, although the stars in the night sky are dim, but you can still help to identify the direction.

No matter what you do, you can't give it up.

Another hundred steps.

Didn't get out of the desert.

Five hundred steps, still not out of the desert.

10,000 steps......

Perhaps, hope is just around the next hundred steps?

If there is no more, Lu Yang really wants to give up.

Another thousand steps passed.

Lu Yang really wanted to give up.

His legs were as heavy as lead...... He had the urge to fall to his knees at any moment......

No, I can't!

Can't give up!

But if you don't give up, does that mean there is hope?

In this boundless desert, there is no hope at all.

I really want to give up.

But what if ・・・・・・ hope is just a hundred steps away?

Wouldn't it be a shame to give up now?

Forget it, it's been more than a hundred and a hundred steps, and the miracle hasn't appeared, so stop lying to yourself, there's no point.

The last hundred steps.

If it's still desert, then lie still.

I really can't hold on anymore.

Where is the hope?

Maybe...... There is no hope at all.

Another hundred steps.

And then...... Another hundred steps.

And then...... Lu Yang fell to his knees in the sand.

He was in utter despair, and it seemed pointless to hold on any longer.

Lu Yang drank all the remaining water in the kettle...... In fact, there was less than half a liter left, and I had eaten all the food left・・・・・・ but there were only a few biscuits left.

Then, lie down.

Looking at the vast night sky, Lu Yang stretched his hands and feet・・・・・・

His hand...... It's like touching something in the sand・・・・・・

Columns?

It is the thickness of a thigh, and the texture is a little soft, similar to that of an immortal pillar, but the pillar is lying on its stomach on the sand, and half of it is submerged under the gravel.

Lu Yang hurriedly crawled to the pillar and followed it around・・・・・・

Both ends of the column protruded into the sand, with only the middle part exposed to the ground.

When I put my fingers in it, it really looks like a cactus plant, and there is juice in it...... It's just that it grows on its stomach on the ground, and both ends sink into the sand.

It was pitch black everywhere at night, and Lu Yang couldn't see what color or appearance this thing looked like, but he didn't want to study it so much.

Lu Yang did a very risky, but unavoidable thing・・・・・・ he leaned down, brushed the grit off the surface of the pillar, and then leaned forward and bit it.

Sure enough, there is juice! It's just that the juice is fishy and bitter, and people can't help but wonder if it will be poisonous・・・・・・

But Lu Yang couldn't care about it so much, these juices were extremely thirst-quenching, and the meat inside, although it tasted very bad, could also be satisfying, so Lu Yang was like a hungry beast, biting and swallowing in big gulps.

After a short period of effort, the thing exposed on the sandy ground was gnawed by Lu Yang, but after ・・・・・・ gnawed on these things, Lu Yang's mind began to become trance......

Obviously, this thing has a certain toxicity or medicinal properties, but Lu Yang treats it as food.

After Lu Yang gnawed his fill, he felt a trance in his expression, and seemed to realize the danger, but he soon found that he could barely control his body, he stretched his arms several times and tried to get himself up, but it was like being pressed by a ghost, and his body couldn't move at all.

Drowsiness, coldness......

He also became more and more unconscious, until he lost all consciousness・・・・・・

Dream... ・・・

It's cold.

Hot... ・・・

When Lu Yang woke up, his eyes could barely be opened, and his body became extremely hot......

The two rounds of the sun are hanging high in the sky, as for why the two rounds of the sun are coming out at the same time, Lu Yang has not studied it clearly, and he is not in the mood to study this kind of thing.

But one thing is for sure, and that is that two suns are much hotter than one.

Lu Yang felt that the temperature in the sandy land had almost reached more than 50 degrees now, and he guessed that once the two rounds of the sun reached the top of the sky together, the temperature was estimated to rise again.

The time has come to die.

After his eyes adjusted to the bright light, Lu Yang finally saw clearly what he was biting last night.

It was a purple-black rhizome-like thing, both ends were pierced into the sand, and the middle part was exposed outside the sand, but it was gnawed off by Lu Yang.

After Lu Yang stood up, he was still a little top-heavy, like a hangover after drinking too much.

Judging from the current situation, this purple-black rhizome contains a lot of alcohol...... Or something like alcohol, which should be the reason for Lu Yang's hangover, but when Lu Yang was biting last night, he didn't feel the taste of alcohol.

In addition to the stem that Lu Yang gnawed, there were many other similar rhizomes looming in the sand in front of him, but only a small part of them were exposed to the sand, and the two ends were deep in the sand.

It seems that this is a plant that lives in the desert, although its juice tastes bad and has certain medicinal properties, but it is not too toxic, or even if it is poisonous, it is chronic, at least Lu Yang has no other more uncomfortable feeling except for the feeling of hangover.

Of course, Lu Yang was very thirsty and hungry now, but his water and food were all exhausted, so he did not hesitate to choose another purple and black ~ stem vine on the ground, leaned down and bit it down.

For those who are hungry and thirsty, this juice-rich substance has a poor texture and taste, but it is an excellent source of water and nutrients.

After gnawing on some of this thing, Lu Yang's mind began to become in a trance again, but unlike last night, he has slept a lot now, and his physical strength and spirit have recovered a lot, not as exhausted as he was last night, so the anesthetic effect of this purple and black ~ stem vine, he can still barely resist now.

Resistance is resistance, but being top-heavy is inevitable, and Lu Yang is now stumbling when he walks. Although this thing has strong medicinal properties, it solves Lu Yang's drinking water and food problems in disguise, which makes Lu Yang feel a lot more settled.

Moreover・・・・・・ Lu Yang soon discovered these purple-black ~ stemmed vines, which stretched far away like mineral veins in the land.

Presumably, there is an underground river here to nourish so many purple-black ~ stem vines, these purple and black ~ stem vines are relatively sparsely distributed near Luyang, and in the direction of last night's lightning and thunder, the denser they are distributed.

If you can't figure it out, there's land and the Ming River over there!

Moreover, walking along this purple and black ~ stem and vine, with drinking water and food, the road is much safer, and you will not die of thirst and starvation.

It is estimated that after the two rounds of the sun are overhead, the weather will be even hotter, so now although Lu Yang staggered, he still didn't dare to rest, and walked in the direction of lightning and thunder without stopping.

Lu Yang's choice of route this time is obviously correct, the further he goes, the more purple and black ~ stems will become denser and denser, and the sand will gradually become solid, it is obvious that the soil content in the sand is increasing, which of course means that the desert is gradually coming to an end in that direction.

Last night's lightning and thunder inadvertently pointed out a way to Lu Yang, which was actually the way of life in this desert, and Lu Yang also seized this opportunity and insisted on not giving up, only to find the purple and black ~ stem vine by chance at the last moment, and thus really grasped this line of vitality.

Of course, getting out of the desert is only the first step, and the arduous and dangerous trial has only just begun.

The two suns in the sky did not gather above his head as Lu Yang estimated, but crossed and separated from both sides, which also made the temperature of the place where Lu Yang was not too high, and the endurance of Lu Yang's body was far beyond ordinary people, and the current temperature was almost the limit that Lu Yang's body could bear, if it rose again, even if he walked out of the desert, he would die under the heat.

Although the soil content in the sand and gravel was getting higher and higher, the edge of the desert was still very large, and Lu Yang walked for more than ten hours until it was dark before he finally came to a small river.

Because there are two or more suns, the length of day and night is very different from that of Earth, and even varies from day to day because of the orbits of these suns.

Today's daylight seems to be much longer than yesterday's.

After Lu Yang came to the river, he first leaned down and drank water suddenly, he had been relying on the juice of the purple and black stem vine to replenish his body water, the juice tasted very bad, and it had already made Lu Yang feel sick to his stomach, if it wasn't for no other way to replenish water, Lu Yang definitely didn't want to touch the purple and black ~ stem vine again, now that there is real water, Lu Yang is of course lying down and drinking wildly.

The area around the creek is already relatively solid soil, of course, because the sand content of the soil is quite high on the edge of the desert.

Because of the existence of this small river, there are also some plants growing out of the ground nearby, and the shadows in the dark night are like trees on the earth, but it is too dark at night Lu Yang basically can't see whether they really look like trees.

At least this purple-black ~ stem vine is not a species on earth... Of course, it was Lu Yang who thought so, he was not a botanist, and his conclusions could not be counted.

Lu Yang, who was tired and tired, found a place to lie down by the river, drank water, and reluctantly ate some purple and black ~ stems and vines, and his physical strength was gone, and he didn't have to worry about not waking up when he slept in this place.

When he was in a daze, Lu Yang felt as if something was licking his face......

But because he was too tired, coupled with the anesthetic effect of purple and black ~ stems and vines, Lu Yang never really woke up.

I don't know how long I slept this night, anyway, when Lu Yang woke up again, the sun was high in the sky again.

Only ・・・・・・this time there was only one sun in the sky.

Last night, there was a lot of shadows by the river, and it was really a tree.

This tree has round green leaves, and it is a species that Lu Yang has not seen, but it has a trunk, branches, and leaves, and it can at least be concluded that it is a tree.

But more importantly・・・・・・ Lu Yang also found a group of quadrupeds by the river!

It looks like a lizard, the size of a goat, but it lies on the ground like a lizard, and it must be a lizard-like creature, and it has fur and looks like a warm-blooded animal.

Lu Yang quickly named them Lizard Sheep, saying that they were sheep because they ate grass and were timid and not aggressive.

Thinking of the sheep, Lu Yang couldn't help but think of Tian Qiaohui's chest chain again・・・・・・

There are also Liu Jianhao and Liu Hui.

Thinking of those things in the real world, Lu Yang began to have a headache again, and he decided not to think about them for the time being, but to focus on this certification task.
