Chapter 395: Trek
Yun Qi quickly helped him deal with his other wounds, he stood up, took out the long sword and held it in his hand.
Jing Hong then looked back at him, "Okay, then let's go in now." ”
Yun Qi nodded, and the two of them went all the way to the depths of the island.
There were not many creatures on the scorching island, except for a few dwarf trees of unknown species that were extremely heat-tolerant, and Jing Hong and Yun Qi could only occasionally see one or two animals fleeting in the distance.
The high temperature made the two of them feel unwell quickly, their bodies covered in sweat, and the soles of their feet were red and blistered from the scorching ground.
The two of them didn't say a word, gritted their teeth and persisted for a long time, and after walking for a long time, strange phantoms even began to appear in the mountains, rocks and trees in front of them.
Jing Hong didn't know it well, she took out two cool pills, handed one to Yun Qi, and stuffed one into her mouth.
Although this pill is not a elixir made from spirit grass, the medicinal materials used are also extremely rare and precious, and its age and medicinal effect are far from imaginable.
The two of them have no divine power to use now, and the elixirs that Jinghong prepared that are suitable for their previous physical state are naturally not easy to use anymore, so Jinghong will choose ordinary pills that ordinary people's bodies can withstand to eat.
The two of them took medicine separately, and their bodies were really much more comfortable, although they were still sweating and their feet were still hurting, but the boredom and anxiety in their hearts due to the heat and dryness were relieved a lot, and their heads were not as painful as before.
Jing Hong was very satisfied with these changes, she carefully drank two sips of water to moisten her throat, and then silently handed a soft steamed cake to Yun Qi to fill her stomach.
Yun Qi smiled at her, "Let's go eat there." ”
In the direction of his finger stood a mushroom-shaped rock, large and small, and at the moment beneath the rock, there was a small patch of shade created by the rock's obscuration.
The two sat down in the shade, their backs against the warm rocks, and ate two identical rice cakes together.
They don't dare to eat too fast or too much, because they don't know how long the journey will be, whether they will have enough food in their hands, and they don't know if they will be able to find a clean water source on the road, so they have to save as much food and water as possible.
After eating, Jinghong and Yun Qi drank two more sips of water.
Putting away their water bladders, the two did not rush to leave.
Jinghong picked the blisters on his feet, and then carefully applied the medicine one by one.
Yun Qi couldn't help but feel pity when he saw that her fair and delicate soles were red at the moment, and there were six or seven blisters that had been ground out.
After hastily disposing of the blisters on his feet, he took off his robe and handed it to Jing Hong, "Wrap it around your shoes." ”
Jing Hong hurriedly waved his hand and refused, "In such an environment, if you don't wear a coat, you will definitely blister and molt later." ”
Yun Qi didn't argue with her, so he simply tore up his sleeves directly.
Jing Hong felt a headache, and hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed his hand, "Don't mess around! Now we don't have divine power, in the end my physical strength must be inferior to yours, you are better than tossing yourself at this time, it is better to wait until I can't support it and then come to help me." ”
Yun Qi also felt reasonable when he heard this, and nodded while putting the robe back on his body.
Seeing that half of his left sleeve had been torn off, Jing Hong hurriedly took another piece of gauze that was originally intended to be used to bandage the wound and helped him tie the crack to his shoulder.
The gauze was light and thin, except for the fact that it was a little weird to be tied with a bow at the position behind Yun Qi by Jinghong, but it was not very out of place.
Because it didn't affect Yun Qi's movement of his left arm, he didn't notice Jinghong's little prank.
The two stayed in the shade until they had recovered most of their strength, and then they supported each other to embark on the journey back to the island.
Until the second half of the night, the two of them completely lost their physical strength, and Yun Qi found a small cave located in the middle of the mountain, and the temperature was not so high for the two of them to rest.
They hurriedly ate a little dried rice cake, drank a few sips of water, and then snuggled up to each other and fell into a deep sleep.
By the time they woke up again, the sun had already risen in mid-sky, and the weather outside was a little hotter than when they had just arrived on the island yesterday, and the two of them didn't dare to go out against the big sun.
They tidied up their rucksacks, took all the watery, perishable, and uneaten food to the hole to dry, and kept busy until the sun was setting, so they hastily ate something and replenished some water, and then packed up their rucksacks and went back on the road.
Although there was no scorching sun, the ground beneath their feet was still extremely hot because the entire island was surrounded by strange fire.
The soft-soled boots of the two didn't block much heat, so it didn't take long for the soles of their feet to get a few more blisters.
Yun Qi and Jing Hong are both stoic people, and the physical discomfort did not make them retreat, the two supported each other, gritted their teeth and walked all the way.
After a full six and a half days, they finally came to a place that seemed to be a place of washing.
For more than six days, the blisters on their feet burst and grew and broke and broke and made them suffer enough.
In addition to this, their lips were covered in tiny cracks and upturned dead skin, and their bare/exposed hands, faces, etc., were all several degrees darker.
Because they put a little medicine in the container of water that is beneficial to the human body and can play a role in preserving, their water is still the same as when it was first loaded, and because of their savings, they still have 2/3 of the water left.
As for food, Lingguo, a heavy food that can replenish a certain amount of water, is eaten first, and those dry foods made from rice cakes and meat are still in their backpacks.
And then there's where they're now.
After more than six days of trekking, they came to a relatively flat and open field, which inherited the desolate style of the island as always, except for a few dead trees, and only stones and dirt remained in the field of vision of Jinghong and Yun Qi.
But what made them hopeful was that at the end of the field, they saw a large amount of white mist rising from the steam.
Considering the unusually high temperature on this island, both Jing Hong and Yun Qi thought that there should be a deep pool or a large lake there.
Although there is no conclusive evidence to support their hypothesis, they can't help but be thrilled by this discovery.
"This ...... Is this a heart-washing pool?"
