Chapter 409: Water Source
In the distance, the camel procession slowly walked in, a team of fifteen people.
"Look, Professor Robert, there's a tent here, and it's a single person. Leo observed the things in the tent suspiciously, it was very simple, there was only a sleeping bag and a backpack, but unfortunately there was no water, Leo was very disappointed, they didn't have much water, and it would be dangerous if they couldn't find water.
Professor Robert is the leader of the team and a professor, while Leo is their guide, and the rest are his students.
Professor Robert licked his dry lips, and thought it was unbelievable, the desert here was surprisingly big, so there could be someone here alone.
He asked curiously, "Did Leo find anything?"
Leo got out of the tent with a relaxed expression, "It's okay, it looks like I should have fallen behind in a sandstorm." But I don't know why people aren't here, and I think we need to look around here, because the owner of this tent is probably a lady. ”
Professor Robert instructed everyone to look for the neighborhood, but they couldn't find it for a long time, so they decided to camp here.
After all the camps were ready, the students went into their tents to rest.
Leo sat in the middle of the camp with a solemn face, fiddling with the bonfire and sighing, "Professor Robert, we only have the last half of the day's water left, and if we can't find a water source, our situation will be very dangerous." ”
Leo is also very guilty at this time, although he is a guide, he is also temporary. They used to have a professional guide, but unfortunately he had an accident and is no longer there. He, the only man who had ever been in the desert, became the new guide.
Professor Robert said comfortingly, "It's not your fault, it's that I didn't do my job well and led you into this Death Desert. ”
............
In the space, Lin Xiao was eating hot pot, and suddenly Jinbao looked at the direction of the sky suspiciously, "Sister, I seem to hear someone talking outside?"
Someone is talking, it's bad, Lin Xiaoxiao just patronized and ate, and didn't pay attention to the situation outside at all, could it be that someone is coming.
Lin Xiaoxiao listened carefully, and sure enough, this is a bad thing. What to do, there are still many people who listen to the voice.
She went around again, and finally met these people, and if she could follow them, she should be able to get out of the desert.
The positions in and out of the space are fixed, could it be that she suddenly appeared out of thin air, but it would be a pity to miss this opportunity, Lin Xiaoxiao was really unwilling.
Jinbao took a bite of the peeing cow ball, the soup was all over his mouth, and his mouth kept inhaling, "It's delicious, it's delicious." By the way, sister, don't you turn into a cactus, it's better to go out a little smaller, anyway, no one should notice it when it's so dark at night. ”
"That's right. Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, this is a desert, isn't it normal to have cacti or something. Although it is not very reliable to have a cactus in the tent, it is better than a big change of life.
Lin Xiaoxiao anxiously waited in the space until the second half of the night, and there was no sound outside, so he left the space and instantly became a cactus.
Only a palm-sized cactus suddenly appeared in Lin's small tent without a sense of disobedience, fortunately, the group of people outside were very polite, and no one slept in her tent.
Lin Xiaoxiao, who turned into a cactus, wanted to go out, but unfortunately he couldn't get out at all. Because she sadly found that the cactus actually had no feet, and it was broken.
Her ability has been able to transform into flowers and wood-based plants so far, and her ability to turn into insects has since disappeared.
At this time, Lin Xiaoxiao was surprised to find that her root tentacles were actually growing longer and longer, and they were growing into the sand.
And the fact that her cactus body actually began to move slowly is amazing.
The feeling transmitted by the cactus from the outside was actually pleasant, and Lin Xiaoxiao could feel that there was actually an underground river nearby.
Well, Lin Xiaoxiao finally understood the power of her flower-based ability, and she could actually turn herself into a plant and empathize.
Lin Xiaoxiao completely let go of her control over the cactus, and who to follow The cactus moved slowly, and she could feel that she was approaching the water source.
By the time she could react, she had come to a depression where the underground river was.
Lin Xiaoxiao was pleasantly surprised to turn back into his real body, and took out a Luoyang shovel from the space to excavate.
Don't dislike having too much water in the desert, because water can save lives, and obviously Lin Xiaoxiao also understands this truth.
It was about two thousand meters away from Professor Robert's campsite, and they hadn't gone that far when they were searching for Lin Xiao during the day.
At this time, Lin Xiaoxiao already had an idea in her heart, and when she found the water source, she could lie that she had come out to find water. After all, the absence of water in the desert means despair and death.
Finally, water actually came out of the pit, and Lin Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to cheer loudly.
Although the distance was far away, when the night was so quiet, Lin Xiaoxiao's cheers were amplified countless times.
Leo had just laid down to rest when he was awakened by a distant voice. He listened carefully, and the voice was not very real, but it vaguely sounded as if it was talking about water.
Water, Leo quickly reacted, and it seemed that the owner of the tent should have found the water source.
Leo quickly called Professor Robert and the students to the place where the sound was.
As soon as the students heard that there was water, their eyes lit up green, and they ran desperately, and they were going crazy these days. The daily ration of water was only fifty milliliters, and that little bit of water was of no use in the desert, and they were dying of thirst.
Professor Robert ran and prayed that it was not a mirage, and when he finally got closer, Professor Robert was surprised to find that it was actually an underground river.
They pounced happily, their clothes were wet and they didn't care, they drank the hard-won water desperately.
The appearance of this group of people drinking water made Lin Xiaoxiao's scalp tingle, how long had it been since he had drunk water.
Leo relaxed after drinking the water, only to find Lin Xiaoxiao sitting on the side, he smiled, and sure enough, his guess was right.
Leo saw that Lin Xiaoxiao looked like an Asian, so he said in English, "Hello, I'm Leo, from country X, it's nice to meet you." ”
Lin Xiaoxiao: "Hello, I'm Lin Xiaoxiao from China. ”
It turned out that Professor Robert was from the geography department of a university in country X, and this time he came here to investigate, and then went back to write a graduation thesis.
But unexpectedly, the guide died unexpectedly due to a heart attack, and they fell into passivity. Although Leo is a guide, he is not a professional at all, and he can't find a water source at all.
The night was unusually quiet, Lin Xiaoxiao lay in his tent and fell asleep quickly, although he met a group of unreliable ones, but he was better than himself in the desert.
The next day, the weather was fine and the sky was clear, and Lin Xiaoxiao followed Professor Robert and them on the road. Because their destination was the same, what made her happiest this time was to have a camel to ride.
