Chapter 5: The Desert Without Darkness
The stones were fast on their feet, and they didn't look like they were just walking, but in reality, they were no slower than those on the bike, maybe even two minutes faster, but even so, they walked for a long time to find a huge skull half buried under the sand!
This skull is really not small, although only the part of the eyes is exposed, but the two holes are also amazingly large, at least let Xiaobao walk in so straight and straight, it is absolutely no problem!
The skull was pretty good, and Naga first looked inside with the flashlight that came with the terminal, and after finding that there was nothing else in it except sand, he began to beckon the remaining two people to come over and start cleaning the skull.
As for Xiaobao, this girl was still placed in the shadow of the pile of luggage, and was told by Naga with a smile that it was better for her to stay honestly and save them trouble!
Xiaobao was not convinced, but was suppressed by Naga with a finger, and finally could only sit honestly in the luggage pile and watch the stones in the distance as they cleaned the sand from the skull.
This skull is really big, and there is a lot of sand in it, and the entrance and exit are only those eyes, and it is not easy to clean up.
But all three of them belong to the kind of masters who are bold, and Naga and Stone belong to the kind of rough and fleshy melee combat, and they are not afraid, while Lisa stands on top of the skull to watch out for movement around them.
It turned out that the three men were rightly careful, but the skull was not really safe inside, at least it turned out that there was something else in it besides sand!
Naga used the metal bowl he usually used to eat to dig the sand outside, and as soon as he put his hand inside, he suddenly felt a palpitation, and before his mind could react, his body suddenly withdrew his hand, and even quickly dodged to the side.
That's it, so that the reckless attack fell short in an instant, directly brushed his cheek and threw himself into the air, and the bloody mouth fell directly on the sand, and half of his body was on Naga's shoulder!
Naga's movements were very fast, and he directly reached out and grabbed the snake body on her body, and the hot feeling of his hand made his face pull out, but he didn't let go of the high temperature!
However, Sha Mang didn't just have one head, Sha Mang here was caught by Naga, and the stone that wanted to come over to help also fell to the ground suddenly, and Sha Mang's other head shot out of another hole, fortunately, the stone's reaction was fast, otherwise he would definitely be bitten by Sha Mang!
The stone also reacted quickly, and directly turned over and also grabbed the snake body on his body, and suppressed the head of the sand man who wanted to bite together with Naga.
However, before they could kill the mang, the small mang, the size of the baby's arm, swam out of the hole, and the two little heads swung and rushed towards the two people who were pressing on the big mang's head!
Lisa jumped off the skull at once, and the spikes in her hand mercilessly directly cut off Xiao Shamang who was swimming towards the stone and Naga, and at this time, Xiaobao also woke up from the accident just now, and hurriedly held his hat and shouted to the three people who were fighting with Shamang over there.
"That's Shamang, a second-level fierce beast, two-headed and non-poisonous, but once they are provoked, their body temperature will rise, up to five hundred degrees Celsius, and after exceeding five hundred degrees Celsius, they will explode themselves!"
it!
This is the common voice of the three people who heard Xiaobao's shout.
Is this the legendary gas explosion? And 500 degrees Celsius, don't you want to be so legendary!
By the way, aren't snakes cold-blooded? Is this high temperature setting really big husband?
The three of them held back the complaining **, Lisa stood between the two heads to deal with the little snakes, and Stone and Naga took turns to punch the snake's head with their fists.
But, obviously, this kind of recklessness is not easy to deal with.
Shamang's skin is very thick, even if it was beaten by the two of them, it didn't cause great damage to it, and even the two heads knew how to cooperate, and after not biting the person who was riding on him and holding him, the two heads directly began to attack the person holding the other party.
At this moment, the two people who were originally able to hold down the scene couldn't hold back all of a sudden, especially when they saw the two poisonous fangs that emitted cold light growing in the big mouth, they couldn't hold on, and directly greeted Lisa and began to flee outside!
Fortunately, the shamang's body was stuck in the big skull, looking at the shamang's body shape, if you want to get out of a hole, it is absolutely impossible, I just don't know how this shamang got into it before!
Naga picked up his mace and knocked a big head out with a stick, shouting at Xiaobao as he hit back.
"Damn, these two big fangs, this thing is really not poisonous?!"
Xiaobao happened to close her terminal at this time, just now she reviewed Sha Mang's introduction, and then shouted to them with certainty.
"That's right, sand mangs are not poisonous, and their weakness is their teeth! Their teeth are very sharp and huge, basically biting the prey can kill the prey, and the nerves on their teeth are also very rich, as long as you hit their teeth, you will win! ”
At this time, the skin of Shamang, which was originally the same color as the sand, began to slowly turn red, and it can be seen that these eight achievements are what Xiaobao said before, and they are starting to heat up!
Naga and Shi are still more convinced of Xiaobao, before Xiaobao found them food and water, which indirectly also showed her erudition, so the two guys with heavy weapons directly gritted their teeth, and no longer dodged the bloody mouth that pounced again, standing there with their eyes wide open, and the thick arms could see the green tendons bulging, and then the two of them shouted at the same time, and fiercely picked up the weapon in their hands and slammed the fangs in the big mouth that rushed over!
After all, it was a blow that had been accumulating for a long time, and with this blow, the two of them successfully knocked out a poisonous tooth in Sha Mang's mouth, and then Sha Mang's action was really stunned, and then he suddenly hissed, and then began to roll non-stop, and the two heads were curled up and entwined together, and some of the small Sha Mang on the ground were directly crushed into meat residue by the big Sha Mang!
The three of them hurriedly picked it open, and saw that the sand mang kept churning there, and even the huge skull with great strength was pouted from the ground by it, and at this time they found out that the so-called huge skull they thought before was even bigger than they thought, and a large amount of sand leaked out of the puffed up skull, and the sharp canine teeth proved to everyone that when this giant beast was still alive, it was definitely a hegemon-level being!
The huge skull also rolled violently when Sha Mang rolled, Xiao Bao was a little stunned for the first time, and he didn't even feel the crackling of the raised sand on the brim of his hat and body, but the stone reflected very quickly, and picked up Xiao Bao for the first time and retreated, and at this time, Lisa and Naga also saw the opportunity, and when Sha Mang rolled violently, they flew forward and hit all the snakes' weaknesses hard!
This weakness was well protected by Sha Mang before, but under this severe pain, Sha Mang is obviously unable to manage so much now, and it doesn't even feel that its own vital point is hit like this, and the sharp pain of losing his teeth has made this Sha Mang feel nothing.
Therefore, Naga and Lisa only need to avoid the tumbling of the sand mang, and even those little sand mangs don't have to care, because under this big sand mang, those little sand mangs are either dead or just stop cooking!
Sha Mang's thick scale armor was lifted, and the weak point was beaten to the flesh, and the two of them attacked for about three or four minutes, and this Sha Mang completely stopped moving.
Seeing that the war was over, Shi only came back with Xiao Bao at this time, standing under the huge Sha Mang corpse, Shi grinned very happily, Xiao Bao is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, reached out and touched Sha Mang's warm scales, which was very pleasant.
"Shamang's meat is edible, and it is very simple to eat, as long as the skin on its body is peeled off, as long as the meat on its body is exposed to the outside air, it will naturally be cooked."
The three of them didn't know Sha Mang, so they were still a little skeptical of Xiaobao's words, but after seeing that the blurred place where Lisa's flesh and blood were stabbed was faintly white smoke and aroma, they felt that maybe it was really possible!
So, by Lisa, although the weapon in her hand is a two-handed thorn, but the sharpness of this thing is not inferior to an ordinary sword, even if the sashimi of the two-handed thorn looks like a cylindrical spike, but in fact, this two-handed thorn is made in a special way, even if the body looks like a cylinder, but in fact, this thing is also very sharp, not at all like what it looks like on the outside!
Lisa stabbed her hands on the giant python and gestured, and then cut off a reckless head very neatly!
Don't look at Sha Mang's defensive nature when he is alive, but after he dies, the skin and flesh on his body will be relaxed, and the defense will be deducted.
After the snake's head was cut off, the snow-white snake meat appeared in front of everyone, and with the naked eye, there was no blood flowing out of the snake's flesh!
And, the moment the snake's head was cut off, everyone felt a cold breath rushing to their faces, and the cut snake meat began to bubble white, and then after about a minute, the white gas dissipated, and the snake meat left behind turned golden yellow, faintly mixed with an indescribable aroma.
It was Lisa who took the knife and directly cut off another piece of snake meat, and used the characteristics of spikes to directly insert between the snake meat and the snake skin, and turned it around hard, and the snake meat was separated from the snake skin, and the snake skin was shaken with both hands, and the snake meat that looked like she was two waist thick was shaken off.
After being shaken off, the originally snow-white snake meat began to cool down, and after a while, it turned golden brown again, and it looked like it was ready to eat.
Several people looked at this snake meat, and they all felt dumbfounded, and they all looked very surprised, and Naga couldn't help but scold his mother, and then looked at Xiaobao with wide eyes.
", what is the principle of this, how can this snake meat be so magical!"
At this time, Xiaobao had already taken the 'knife' given by the stone before, cut a piece of the snake meat in Naga's hand and put it in his mouth, and after chewing for a while, he said with great satisfaction.
"It's delicious, you can taste it too." After speaking, she kindly explained it to them. "In fact, Shamang's skin is divided into inner skin and outer skin, the outer skin is the hot skin we touched before, the temperature of the skin is very high, it can be used to attack and make Shamang survive better in the desert. The inner skin is used for isolation, and the inner skin can be well isolated from the outside temperature, and even can be refrigerated, so that the inner temperature of Sha Mang has been around zero degrees, so Sha Mang is also one of the few low-temperature physique among snakes. ”
For a moment, the friends were stunned, especially after putting the snake meat that had turned golden brown into their mouths and chewing for a while, the eyes of these three people began to light up!
Although elves like vegetarian food, but after all, it is an interstellar era with the entire universe as the background, if you have been insisting on vegetarianism, this insistence can easily become a drag and reduce its survivability, so although most elves still like vegetarianism, or even adhere to vegetarianism, but some elves who decide to go out of the interstellar still let themselves at least get used to eating meat, but after all, they are born vegetarians, even if they want to get used to it as much as possible, sometimes they can't help but feel physiological rejection.
However, after eating this snake meat, the pure-blood elf Lisa said that she would definitely be able to eat three large pieces!
This snake meat is not very delicious, after all, nothing is put in, at most it is only a little salty. However, I can't stand the good taste of this snake meat, the entrance is tender and the meat is soft, although it is meat, but there is no fishy smell of other meat, and even the bones that were originally the same color as the meat can be used directly after becoming golden brown, and there is even a crispy feeling of being fried!
Xiaobao also expressed his satisfaction with Sha Mang, and then said after eating a few bites.
"This Shamang doesn't have any medicinal value, but its teeth are the raw materials for the best medicinal utensils, and the biggest value of Shamang is still in terms of eating, Shamang's meat is delicious, and the endodermis is also delicious, and this thing is worth a lot of money if it is taken out and sold."
Although she said so, she was not slow to move.
It was obviously a hard trial set up by the Wisteria Academy, but this group of people seemed to be on an outing, and they ate it around a strip of sand mang, and after Lisa cut several more pieces and everyone was full, Naga couldn't help but look at such a huge sand mang's corpse with some sorrow and asked.
"This sand is so big, we will never be able to eat it in a short time, and it's a pity that it goes bad."
Xiaobao, who was shy, didn't care much, and honestly put the stone back into the luggage pile before saying.
"Just dig a pit and bury it, even if Sha Mang dies, the high temperature will still turn the guò outer skin into an energy source to be absorbed by the inner skin, and the inner skin will continue to release cold air after having energy, so that a natural refrigerator will be formed, as long as the bare and undercooked meat is covered with the inner skin, and then we will eat as much as we want, as long as it is not stolen by other creatures."
Naga thinks it's a good idea, and Lisa and Stone agree.
This is the power of knowledge, even if Xiaobao is an individual scumbag, and he can't contribute at all to the kind of things that require physical and combat effectiveness, it will still be taken seriously.
Therefore, Xiaobao sat in the luggage pile very comfortably, sprayed himself with cool oil, and touched his stomach while holding the brim of his hat and was drowsy.
The original sand has been buried tightly by them, and the huge skull has also been cleaned up by them, all the sand inside has been shaken out, and the small snakes inside have all been cleaned up, and even the skull has been thinly covered with a layer of memory metal that they used for civilian use, and Lisa even used the remaining snake skin to pounce on the skull, so that it can continuously release cold air inside the skull, which has an air conditioning effect!
Po woke up when Stone tried to carry her into the skull, which had been buried deeper underground, revealing only a metal passage for them to enter and exit.
After entering it, Xiaobao was put on the ground, and Xiaobao couldn't help but be a little surprised at this time.
Memory metal is a type of liquid metal, which can change its form according to the user's mental power, and after it is finalized, there is no way to reuse it except for decryption with a special instrument. However, people who have the mental power that can deform memory metal will never be stingy with a decryption instrument, so memory metal can be regarded as a multi-functional metal, and people with relatively high mental power generally like to bring some on their bodies, and the density of this metal can be compressed according to the user's mental power, and the maximum can compress a ton of memory metal to the size of a baby's fist, and with the addition of an anti-gravity box, tons of memory metal can be carried around!
Therefore, these three people did not bring this memory metal, and they were not stingy in this place where it looked like they would live for at least three months, everything was supported by memory metal, from the walls of the cubicle to the tables, chairs, benches and the like!
And this skull is not small, the area of this skull alone is at least more than two hundred square meters, otherwise it is impossible to fit that huge sand mang and so many small sand mang.
Now, the skull is divided into two floors, a total of four bedrooms and a small kitchen, each room has a separate bathroom and toilet, except for the absence of bedding, basically everything that can be made of memory metal!
Xiaobao was assigned a small room on the ground floor, which was indeed smaller than the room of the three people, but it was just right compared to her height, and it was also very generous for her!
Xiaobao likes this room very much, although there is not enough light here and there is no quilt bathing or anything like that, but Xiaobao still likes it very much!
When Xiaobao was visiting her room, Shi Shi had already walked in with a quilt in her arms, and stood at the door with a smile and handed it to her.
There's no way, who made Xiaobao's door relatively short before, only a door of less than one meter and a half, no matter how long, wide or high, it is not a stone, and such a big man can walk in normally!
Therefore, the stone could only stand at the door and hand the things to Xiaobao, Xiaobao smiled at the stone a little embarrassed after taking it, thanked him politely, and then couldn't help asking.
"Whose quilt does this belong to?"
Shi squatted at the door and scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and then said angrily.
"It's mine, but don't worry, it's new, I haven't used it yet. This quilt is big enough, you can definitely half cover it! ”
Xiaobao is not disgusted, but a little embarrassed.
"Then you gave it to me, what are you going to do?"
The stone still smiled and said with a mouthful of small white teeth.
"Don't worry, I brought a total of two futons, I just gave you a quilt." In fact, it's not that the stone doesn't want to give Xiaobao an extra mattress, but he only has this quilt that is new, and it is not easy for him to take those who have used it, after all, Xiaobao is a female doll, although she is still young, that, it is also a good thing to avoid suspicion!
Xiaobao was very happy, in fact, this quilt was enough for her to even cover it, so she sincerely thanked Shishi, and then Shishi handed her a cloth bag and said.
"There's a tooth here, didn't you say that this is something that makes a medicine refining utensil? Hehe, it's useless for us to keep it, so you can put it away. ”
"How can this be done, that sand was killed by you." Xiaobao wanted to refuse, but the stone insisted on pushing the cloth bag into Xiaobao's arms and said.
"You just take it, it's useless for us to take it, and besides, the way to kill Sha Mang is still told by you, if it weren't for you, we would never be able to kill that thing!" Looking at the stone, he was very resolute, and Xiaobao finally accepted the bag of things. And the stone was also very relieved to reach out and touch Xiaobao's head, then stood up and left.
Although the place to live is ready, they still have a lot to do, such as tidying up the room to get rid of the surrounding creatures and sprinkling insect repellent powder.
Fortunately, these three of them are all races that are used to living in the wild, and even if they come to school, they will have some of these things with them on them, otherwise if they change to other races, even if they have a place to live, it will be a lot of trouble to live here!
Xiaobao is like this, even if she goes to help, it will only help, so she is very relieved to shrink in her room, and after laying the quilt, she is familiar with her room, it is a pity that there is no water here now, if only there was water......
Thinking about it like this, a lot of things with a lot of water resources in her mind came to her mind, and finally she sat cross-legged on the ground, opened a blank document, and began to rummage through the book according to her memory.
It wasn't until three hours later that Xiaobao sorted out a more practical document, and at this time, it was just in time for Shi to call her to dinner!
Bao followed Stone to the living room, where Naga and Lisa were already seated, and Stone easily carried Bao to her place and sat down.
There's no way, Xiaobao is the shortest here, even Lisa, who is the second shortest, is more than 1.7 meters tall and close to 1.8 meters because she is an elf, so in order to take care of Xiaobao's height difference, her chair is made higher, so that she can better sit on it and eat, but the chair has become taller, and if she wants to climb up, she can only rely on others to 'help'......
This time their staple food is still snake meat, but the difference is that unlike the previous way of relying on snake meat to cook naturally, this time it is Naga's main knife, using Lisa and some seasonings carried by the stone to do secondary processing, not to mention, Naga's craftsmanship is still good, at least the taste is very good!
Xiaobao picked up a knife and fork made of memory metal and cut a small piece and fried it into a honey-colored, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and put it in his mouth, the indescribable wonderful taste almost made Xiaobao burst into tears!
Not only Xiaobao, but even Stone and Lisa couldn't help but feast on it, only Naga, who had already eaten seven layers in the kitchen, could still eat slowly, and by the way, he had to ask very sè.
"Well, I'm a good cook!" It's just that everyone present doesn't have time to pay attention to him.
However, even if no one cares, Naga still has to sè, and he almost didn't raise Erlang's legs and hum a song!
After the meal, Xiaobao sat on the back chair made of memory metal with a shy stomach and didn't want to move, on the other side, Lisa Stone and Naga were also moving on the side to eat, compared with the diligence of the three of them, who did not waste any time in exercising, Xiaobao seemed a lot more decadent.
Squinting at the three of them for a while, just when Xiaobao was drowsy, she remembered that she had sorted out some things that she wanted to give to them.
Thinking of this, Xiaobao regained his spirits again, and then said to the stones.
"What's your terminal number, sue me, I'll pass you something."
The three of them heard Xiaobao's words, paused for a moment, and then continued to exercise, but one by one they reported their terminal numbers to her, and finally Naga couldn't help but sigh.
"What, what's the good stuff? You're not going to want to pass us desert survival cheats or something. That's not possible, I'm just a big boss, and I'm most afraid of reading books in my life. ”
Xiaobao gave him a blank look, and Naga didn't care, just smiled, until he was stunned for a moment after seeing what Xiaobao came, and then made a bitter face.
"It's a book." Despite saying this, he still opened the document with his hands.
Xiaobao also took into account the problem of time, so the things sorted out for them are very simple, the name, the attached level and weakness, a picture and usefulness. Even if they can't remember so many things, they should have a little impression at a glance at the picture, as long as they have a little impression, it's good, and she's helping to sort it out when she comes back.
This piece of information is sorted out at a glance.,It's basically for their current needs.,And it's very concise.,Even if it's Naga.,There's still a glance at it!
All three of them were very happy with this.
Don't look at these three people who take care of her because of Xiaobao's small and credit problems, but no one wants to be one more burden, if they keep letting them be nannies, even if there is nothing in a short time, it is impossible to have no grievances after a long time.
And Xiaobao reflected his value very well at this time.
The three of them are strong in force but obviously not good in knowledge, while Xiaobao is not good in force but has a very wide range of knowledge, at least they still know a lot about some materials!
Gave the things to these three people, Xiaobao went back to the room by himself after a sigh, although it was easy to become a fat person when she just ate enough to sleep or something, but she couldn't manage so much, she was so sleepy now!
Thinking so, Xiaobao took off her clothes and nested directly in the quilt, regardless of whether there was no water to take a bath or anything like that, she was also tired after tossing for such a day.
However, before going to bed, Xiaobao habitually glanced at the time on the terminal, so that she saw that she was choking on half of her breath.
According to the time displayed on the terminal, more than two days have passed since the moment she got off the ship, it turns out that they have been walking in the desert for that long? No wonder she was so sleepy, she just squinted for a while before, and she didn't sleep for two days, which was still too reluctant for Xiaobao, who was not yet an adult.
Slowly, after closing her eyes, she fell into a deep sleep, and she didn't know that after she fell asleep, the three people outside did not go to sleep directly, but arranged the order of 'vigil' before taking turns to sleep, perhaps, among these four people, only Xiaobao, who is ignorant of the world, can sleep so peacefully.
However, at this time, there is no night in the desert is full of wailing, the students of this exam have all been thrown into the desert, at a glance the barren desert makes many young masters and young ladies who do not touch the spring water feel desperate, even those who have a lot of experience in the wild can not help but be a little blind, only a very small number of people who have experience in desert life can barely survive in this man-made desert, and the rest of the people, Either I couldn't stand being roasted by the scorching sun, or I was thirsty and hungry and crying my father, and in just two days, tens of thousands of people were brushed off, and the people who really survived the two days were the real testers of this trial.
And some of them got together and began to discuss how to get enough cool oil and scald cream from the team composed of dwarf girls, golem youths, ogres, and elven girls!
These are the same batch of students as Xiaobao, and they are still the students who were very close to Xiaobao and the stone at that time, they saw the movements between Xiaobao and the stone before, in such a harsh environment, even a saint would be greedy!
