Chapter 325: A Difficult and Great Journey (Part II)
"Goo Dong Goo Dong!" Zhao Yan had never thought for a moment that the water was so sweet now, she suddenly realized that this bottle of water was a two-hour amount, and she couldn't just drink it all at once, so she hurriedly stopped. However, at this time, the bottle was less than one-tenth of the water.
"Ahh She's never been so out of shape, however, these days, there's never been too much.
After sitting quietly for dozens of seconds and calming down the extreme chagrin in her heart, Zhao Yan slowly stood up. Picked up the bottle with only a little water left. The trip has to go on, and frustration doesn't solve the problem. She packed her bags and began to continue her journey.
For the next two hours, according to the plan, she had no more water to drink, except for the bottle she had just picked up, and the remaining drink was less than a sip of the bottle that was thrown out again.
Zhao Yan walked in a daze, forgetting what she was doing, just moving her steps mechanically. She didn't want to think, she didn't want to be conscious, she didn't want to think about anything, because once she started thinking, she could feel the pain in her body. Tiredness, thirst, soreness......
I don't know how long it took, she suddenly came back to her senses from the state of confusion, and glanced at the yellow sand on the ground with a blank look, and she suddenly remembered, yes, she came with a test.
She quickly glanced at the compass in her hand, and then looked back at her footprints, she had deviated from the established direction. Fortunately, there were not many deviations, but in order to correct the direction, she had to walk a few more kilometers.
"Ah!!!" Zhao Yan wanted to raise her head to the sky and scream, but the extreme thirst and lack of water made her only make a little hoarse sound. After a few seconds of "howling", she calmed down, as she realized that doing so didn't do anything other than waste her energy.
Although it deviated from some directions, the good news was that it had gone nearly thirteen kilometers, which can be converted into ten kilometers if the error is counted, indicating that today's mission has been completed by a third.
Zhao Yan looked at her watch, and another piece of good news lifted her spirits, and the time of two hours was up again, and she could drink water. In order to avoid the regret of drinking water last time, Zhao Yan slowly opened the bottle cap after calming down her mind. "Boom!" she took a big sip and then stopped, looking at the bottle, about two-thirds of the water remained.
The body kept telling her that she needed more water, but Zhao Yan refused. She stood up calmly and began to walk on, under this scorching sun, there was not much difference between sitting and resting and walking.
In the boundless yellow sand, in the soaring heat wave, a weak but determined figure moved his steps step by step, slowly but firmly......
Long Qing stood in front of the window, the sunset had slowly begun to set, and he knew that today should be the most difficult for Zhao Yan. Today, she will face multiple challenges, and once this hurdle cannot be passed, she will basically fail this test. And once you survive today, tomorrow, as you get closer and closer to your destination, your physical strength will certainly decline, but your spirit will be full of hope.
There was a gentle knock on the door in his ears, and Long Qing said, "Please come in!"
Lin Raojiao walked in pretty, but her eyes were red and swollen, as if she had just cried.
"Master, you can also send me to the desert, I want to accompany my senior sister!" Lin Raojiao choked up.
Long Qing touched Lin Raorao's head, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, you think I don't want to, it's just your current physical and mental state, sending you over is sending you to death." ”
"But, woo......" Before Lin Raorao finished speaking, she suddenly cried out loud. It took a long time to slowly stop crying, "But when I think of my senior sister suffering in the desert, without food or drink, I feel uncomfortable." ”
"Silly girl, this is an important stage in your senior sister's life, and after completing this test, she will usher in a major transformation, which is a good thing. Long Qing comforted.
"I know, but I'm just uncomfortable!" Lin Raojiao choked up, "Master, you tell me where my senior sister will come out, I'm going to wait for her, I don't want to wait for her here, I want to wait for her on the edge of the desert and watch her come out." ”
Long Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I promise you." Tomorrow morning we'll go to the edge of the desert and wait for her!"
"Master, do I think it's okay to go now?" Lin Raorao pleaded in a low voice.
Long Qing smiled: "Silly girl, she can't be here today, and she will have to go tomorrow afternoon at the earliest, it's useless for you to go today." ”
"I know, but I just don't want to wait for my sister in the house. Even if I can't enter the desert, I want to be next to the desert, and I want to experience what my sister feels, even if it's one percent. ”
"Well, I promise you, we'll buy two sleeping bags later, and we'll wait for her on the edge of the desert. "Long Qingdao.
"Master, you're so good!" Lin Raojiao hugged Long Qing excitedly and rubbed Long Qing's chest with her little head.
At this time, in the boundless desert, Zhao Yan had already fainted in the yellow sand. Under the double blow of lack of water and tiredness, she finally lost consciousness.
"Our Zhao family is a descendant of the royal family, from ancient times to the present, our ancestors don't know how many people have been sacrificed for the continuation of the family. I hope that none of you can give up your own interests for the sake of your family at any time, and you can give up everything for your family at any time......"
"Yan'er, the Ji family is one of the three major families of Guwu, and its power is extremely huge, covering all walks of life in the country. The young master of the Ji family is a genius of the sky, a generation of martial arts wizards, and the Ji family will definitely go to another peak under his leadership in the future. Father hopes that you can marry her, even if it is not good in name, but for the sake of the family, father hopes that you can be wronged. ”
"But, father, it's the twenty-first century now, why do you want me to marry him as a concubine, is the daughter so worthless?"
"Yan'er, don't think so. You have to believe that with your appearance, you will definitely be able to capture the heart of the young master of the Ji family, and it won't take many years for you to become the main lady of the Ji family, what a glory it will be at that time! What is the small sacrifice you made before?"
"But father, what if I can't become the wife of the main house, will my daughter have to live for the rest of her life with the reputation of a concubine?"
"Enough, Yan'er, I've already said that in order for the prosperity of the family, everyone must make certain sacrifices, and my father hopes that you can understand the general situation!"
"Father, let me die for my family, I can do it. Let me be a concubine, I can't do it! I Zhao Yan will never be anyone's vassal all my life!"
