Chapter 108: Trapped in the Desert (Part I)

When Yin Qianhe was unconscious, Qin Chong had already checked the dry food and water that the two of them were carrying, but fortunately, because they were tightly tied around their waists, they were not blown away. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis is a blessing in disguise.

But they didn't bring much, and even if they save, they would only be able to supply for two days at most.

Qin Chong didn't know where they were at this time, and whether they could walk to a place where there were people before the food and water ran out.

This feeling that everything is unknown is the easiest to make people panic, and even Qin Chong, who has always been calm, can't help but be a little worried.

In front of the panicked Yin Qianhe, he naturally did not mention this layer, but only said it on the optimistic side.

"I don't think we'll be blown too far, Xiaohu and they'll find us soon."

Yin Qianhe calmed down a lot after hearing this, she first stood up by herself, and then asked, "Then are we going to wait for them to come?" ”

Qin Chong lowered his head and pondered for a long time before saying, "Let's find out if there are any people nearby first, perhaps, we can meet other caravans on the road." ”

"Well, it's not good to sit still. But which way do we go? Do you know the direction? I'm direction-blind and can't count on it. ”

Qin Chong stretched out his hand and pointed to the sun that was still in the east, "During the day, go in the direction of the rising sun, and if you want to hurry at night, look for Ziweixing." ”

"Oh, then I'll follow you."

"You can rest for a while, eat something and drink some water first."

"It's not a lot of food, I still don't eat it, and I won't die if I don't eat breakfast."

"Nope." Qin Zhong resolutely objected, "You are weak at this time, you must replenish food, otherwise how will you go next?" ”

Yin Qianhe saw that the expression on Qin Chong's face was very serious, so he had to sit down according to his wishes, picked up the kettle on the ground and took a sip of water.

Qin Zhong opened a small cloth bag and took out half a piece of bread from it, "There are not many things, we have to calculate carefully, we can only eat so much in one meal." ”

Yin Qianhe took the dry cake and grinned: "It's okay, just lose weight." ”

Qin Chong didn't laugh.

Wu Xiaohu and others searched for Qin Chong and Yin Qianhe in the desert, and found that there was still no trace of them at noon on the second day.

Afraid of getting lost in the desert, Uncle Yuan Jiu suggested going to Shanshan first.

"Xiaohu, it's not far from Shanshan here, I think let's go back to Shanshan to settle these things, and then find a few guides to look for them separately." We're in a group of people with a herd of camels, and it's not a way to bump around without a head. ”

"But the second master has nothing to eat, so I have to find them quickly."

"It's a waste of time. Moreover, if we accidentally walk into the hinterland of the desert, maybe we won't even be able to get out ourselves, how can we find the second master? ”

Wu Xiaohu thought about it carefully, and felt that what Uncle Yuan Jiu said was not unreasonable. Although he was so anxious that he was very worried about the safety of Qin Chong and Yin Qianhe, he still decided to listen to Uncle Yuan Jiu.

Moreover, if you go to Shanshan, you can ask Wei Chigang for help, and call more people to look for them together, so that you can find Qin Zhong and them faster.

"Okay, Uncle Nine, listen to you. Then let's go quickly, and strive to get to Shanshan tonight, and then come out early tomorrow morning to find it. ”

After discussing, Wu Xiaohu and Uncle Yuan Jiu rushed to Shanshan with a caravan.

On the way, Wu Xiaohu kept urging everyone to go quickly, and he himself was eager to fly to Shanshan immediately after growing wings.

The caravan rushed out of the desert before dark, and as soon as Wu Xiaohu's legs landed on the flat ground, he walked as fast as he could, leaving behind the rest of the caravan and running to Wei Chi's house first.

As soon as Wei Chi heard the news that Qin Zhong was lost in the desert, he immediately sent people out to find a few old guides, and asked his wife to hurry up and prepare five days' worth of dry food to supply them to search for the desert.

That night, Wei Chi's house did not turn off the lights for nearly three watches.

Wu Xiaohu was eagerly pacing back and forth in the hall, babbling and scolding as he walked: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault that I didn't protect the second master." At that time, he took care of his own escape, and he didn't notice that the second master and Miss Yin didn't have time to escape. I, I'm just a coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death. ”

When he said this, he stopped and slapped himself, "It's a shame that the second master saved my life in the mountains back then, but I couldn't repay it with my life." If the second master has something, I will end myself and go to the underworld to make amends to him. ”

Wei Chigang sat on the chair and shook his feet, he was waiting for someone to bring the guide, and when he saw Wu Xiaohu scolding himself like this, he said: "Maybe Brother Qin, they have already come out at this time, don't blame yourself first." Brother Qin hasn't been seen for a day, don't you curse him? He wasn't dying that easily. ”

"Bah......" Wu Xiaohu hurriedly spat on the ground after hearing this, "Yes, yes, yes, I shouldn't curse the second master." With the wisdom of the second master, he will definitely be able to come out safely. ”

――――――――

"Second Master Qin, with your ingenuity, we will definitely be able to go out."

Yin Qianhe hugged her knees, sat on a stone that was just big enough for her to sit alone, and looked at a few faint stars in the dark night sky and asked Qin Chong.

"Well, we can go back."

Qin Chong used the half of the dead branch in his hand to stir up the fire that was gradually weakening, and what was burning was the firewood that he and Yin Qianhe picked up while walking in the afternoon.

He was afraid that they might have to spend the night in the desert, so he collected some firewood in advance in case they needed it. They had nothing to keep them warm, and if they didn't build a fire at night, it would be difficult to withstand the cold of the desert at night.

The sky was not clear enough tonight, and he could only see a few stars, and he didn't find Ziweixing, which is the North Star, so he couldn't tell the direction for the time being.

Surrounded by a sea of sand like the Dead Sea, you don't feel the scent of people or animals at all. Even though they knew it was late at night and they were tired from walking during the day, they still didn't feel sleepy, because the environment was so quiet that it was very unsettling.

Yin Qianhe put his head on his arm and sighed, "It's so lonely!" Except for the two of us, there wasn't even a ghost. Why don't I sing a song, I just learned a nice song some time ago. Second Master Qin, do you listen? ”

Qin Zhong added a few dead branches to the fire, and the firelight brightened up a little more, reflecting Yin Qianhe's listless face due to sleepiness.

"The girl can sing?"

After hearing this, Yin Qianhe suddenly raised his head and shook his body, and said energetically: "Just kidding, I was recognized by the whole company as a wheat bully back then. ”

Saying this, she suddenly shrank back and laughed, "Uh, I'm talking nonsense again, don't you mind." Anyway, I can sing, listen? ”

"If the girl is willing to show her singing voice, then of course she listens to it. And it just so happens that I think it's too quiet. ”

"Yes, I can't even stand your dull temperament, and I'm even more uncomfortable. Okay, let me sing a song to break this dead atmosphere. (To be continued.) )
