Coming to the corner of the desk, it stood upright, stood on tiptoe, stretched out its paws, and grabbed a piece of roast meat with great speed, stuffed it into its mouth, and shrank into the sand with a dodge. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After eating it, it was full of intoxication, and it was so delicious that it was going to cry!

The successful experience emboldened it and continued to stretch out its claws, only to find a void.

At this time, Xiao Jue took the last piece of barbecue away, and when he saw this claw of unknown origin, he was really stunned.

Jiang Rong noticed his strange look and was about to speak, but was stopped by his eyes.

Xiao Jue used his hand like lightning, and detained the thing, and when he lifted it, both of them were surprised, what is this?

It looks like a monkey, but the hair on this body has been replaced by sand, just like a monkey sand sculpture has come to life.

Jiang Rong was puzzled, "This is—"

"Sand monkeys."

The little thing called, his eyes were full of horror, and his hands and feet beckoned to Xiao Jue's hand.

Jiang Rong took out a small bamboo basket and buckled it on the desk, and asked, "Sand monkeys?" ”

"Well, they live in the desert all year round, they are scarce, they are good at walking through the sand, and they can dive underground." Xiao Jue briefly talked about the characteristics of sand monkeys.

Jiang Rong dug a hole in the bamboo basket and observed the sand monkey inside, which was scurrying around restlessly, scratching the bamboo basket with its paws, trying to come out, but in vain.

Seeing Jiang Rong looking over, it looked up at her, its eyes showed a look of pleading, and the water in its green eyes flickered, as if it could speak.

Jiang Rong was shocked by the spirituality of this little thing, took a small steamed bun, tore off a little and threw it in to feed it.

The sand monkey picked it up and ate it, and looked at her again.

She simply threw the whole one in, and the sand monkey picked it up and ate it so much that her cheeks bulged and she quickly eliminated one.

After eating, it burped, rubbed its belly, slapped the bamboo basket, and looked at Jiang Rong again, as if begging to let it out.

Jiang Rong opened the bamboo basket, who knew that it did not leave, as if he knew that the two of them had no ill will towards it, it was bold, and it jumped directly to the side of the plate, and was about to reach out to grab it.

"Hey-" Jiang Rong hurriedly grabbed its claws, "Don't move." ”

She took a few fried dumplings from the plate, placed them separately on an empty plate, pushed them in front of it and said, "You can eat them now." ”

The sand monkey grabbed one with one paw, one bite here, two bites there, and ate so much that its stomach stood up, but it still refused to stop, and it didn't know what it had become like to be hungry before.

Disturbed by this little thing, the two of them were not interested in continuing to eat, and the rest was cheaper.

The two cleaned up for a while, and were about to leave, when the sand monkey who was busy eating saw that he hurriedly dropped the food, ran over in twos and threes, grabbed the hem of Jiang Rong's clothes and pointed in one direction, and kept calling.

"Where do you want me to go?" Jiang Rong tried to say.

The sand monkey nodded hurriedly, scurrying some distance forward, looking back at her with pleading eyes. The watery eyes look particularly moving.

Jiang Rong looked at Xiao Jue, "Do you think we want to go?" ”

Having asked this, she had already made a decision in her heart.

Xiao Jue didn't say anything, took her hand, and said lightly to the sand monkey: "Lead the way." ”

The sand monkey jumped three times with joy, scurrying ahead at such speed that it almost blended in with the desert, and it was impossible to tell where it was.

If the two of them hadn't kept staring at it, they wouldn't have lost it.

After walking for about two quarters of an hour, the sand monkey suddenly stopped, jumped on a bulging sandbag, and pointed down.

Jiang Rong raised his eyebrows, what is buried underneath?

Soon she knew that it was a person, a child, to be exact, not very old, only seven or eight years old.

The sand from his face was cleaned, revealing a small, wrinkled face with signs of sunburn, chapped lips, and a faint breath that looked like he hadn't eaten or drunk for days.

Jiang Rong immediately took out a water bladder and fed him a little water, and the child subconsciously drank it greedily, but she didn't feed it much.

People who have been short of water for a long time can't drink water openly, otherwise they are prone to problems.

The two cleaned up the child and wrapped him in a shawl, and the sand monkey stayed quietly and obediently, and was very happy to see that the master was saved.

Jiang Rong was in a difficult situation at this time, "What should he do?" With it? ”

If you don't bring it, such a young child may die in the desert. But it's not convenient to take it, they still have to go to the underground mausoleum.

I don't know how such a young child can appear in the desert without a single adult around. Luckily, he had a sand monkey by his side, and if he hadn't found them, the child would probably have been buried in the sand and would never have woken up.

Xiao Jue said: "Take it." ”

It was impossible for them to leave him, that would be tantamount to making him wait for death, so in fact, there was only one result, and that was to take him with him.

Xiao Jue carried the child on his back, and the two of them got back on the road, and the sand monkeys jumped forward and back, looking very cheerful.

Before noon, the two of them did not find a suitable place to rest, only found a tall cactus, which could block the scorching sun.

Setting up the tent in the shadow of the cactus, the three of them and the monkey all came in, and they felt a chill for a while.

This tent is naturally extraordinary, with several formations engraved on it, integrating waterproof, fireproof, pressure-proof, defense, and temperature regulation, making people feel safe and comfortable.

The two of them ate something simply, Jiang Rong fed a few fruits to the sand monkey, and immediately made the little things happy, holding the fruits and eating them with juice.

It probably had never eaten anything so delicious.

The lying child moved, opened his eyes, and there was a blank look in his eyes, and the sand monkey suddenly rushed over and squatted on his chest.

Jiang Rong walked over, "Are you awake?" ”

The child slowly turned his head and was stunned when he saw the person, and was about to struggle to get up.

Jiang Rong gently pressed him, "You are very weak now, so you should lie down." Do you want to drink water? ”

Hearing the word "water", the child licked his lips, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes, but in an instant the light dimmed.

He shook his head and said, "No need, thank you sister, I'm not thirsty." ”

He said he wasn't thirsty, but he was constantly swallowing saliva.

Jiang Rong also fed him water several times along the way, and the amount of water increased gradually, but his body was still in a state of extreme thirst for water.

Jiang Rong looked at him like this, and felt a little sad, this kid was probably afraid that if he drank the precious water, he would be thrown away by them, right?

She smiled at him, touched his head, took a water bladder, handed it to him, and said, "Drink, sister, there is still a lot of water here." ”

The child looked at her, and finally could not contain his desire, took it, pulled the stopper, and swallowed it in large gulps, but not a drop leaked out.

Soon he stopped, licked his lips with his tongue, licked the remaining water stains clean, and handed the kettle to Jiang Rong.

She didn't answer, and said, "You take this kettle, and when you are thirsty, you can drink the water in it, and you don't need to save it." ”

The kettle has a strap that allows it to be worn cross-body over the shoulder.

Hearing this, the child was really stunned, holding the kettle in his hand and still maintaining an outstretched posture, Jiang Rong took the initiative to help him hang it on his body.

The kettle is not small, and the water in it is also very heavy, and it is heavy on the body, but the child does not feel heavy at all, but his heart is very steady, and he can't help grinning.

Jiang Rong took out another handkerchief, wrapped in a few pieces of snacks, opened it and put it in front of him, "Eat." ”

The child grabbed a piece and looked at her, his eyes instantly turned red.

Jiang Rong touched his head, "My sister's name is Jiang Rong, and that brother's name is Xiao Jue," she pointed in Xiao Jue's direction, and Xiao Jue looked over and nodded gently at the child.

She asked him again, "What's your name?" ”

The child ate the pastries little by little, and although he was very hungry, he was reluctant to eat them all at once, and he hurriedly said, "Sister, my name is Geeta." ”

"Well, Geeta, why did you pass out in the desert alone?"

Geeta's eyes darkened, and the action of eating paused.

"Sister just asks, if you don't want to say it, then don't say it." Jiang Rong said busily.

Geeta shook her head, "There's nothing I can't say, I'm from the country of quicksand, and the country of quicksand suddenly collapsed a month ago, and all the people in the city are ...... are all buried. I happened to be playing in a grotto outside the city that day, and I escaped. But Abba Eminem still has Gilly......"

His tears fell suddenly, smashing on the pastry in his hand, and he was wet, and his voice was choked and he couldn't continue.

The sand monkey jumped up and down on him, looking anxious and squeaking, as if to tell him not to cry.

Jiang Rong took Geeta into his arms and patted him on the back, unable to say anything comforting.

Only time can heal this pain. No matter how nice the words of comfort are, the loved ones who have been lost will never come back.

Xiao Jue looked at the two, and after all, he still didn't stop his Ah Rong from getting close to other members of the opposite sex. For the sake of that kid's tragic change at such a young age, he will allow this time.

After a while, Geeta withdrew from Jiang Rong's arms, wiped her eyes, and couldn't stop wiping them until they were red and swollen.

Jiang Rong couldn't help but feel a little funny, this kid probably felt embarrassed, so he used it to cover up.

"Okay, don't wipe it, if you wipe it again, your eyes will be broken." Jiang Rong grabbed his hand.

Geeta pursed her lips, not daring to look at her, the tips of her ears were red.

Half a month later, the group finally came to the location that Jiang Rong had deliberately written down, although the terrain of this desert has changed a little from before, but there is a high sand dune that has always been there.

There was also a dry lake not far away, so Jiang Rong was sure that the underground mausoleum was in this area.

She took out three earth talismans and slapped them on each other, and then the three of them and a monkey dived down into the desert.

The earth talisman, as the name suggests, is a talisman that allows people to walk freely in the soil, and the sand is naturally not a problem.

The kind of talisman that Jiang Rong exchanged was a high-grade earth talisman, and it lasted for eight hours.

As for the sand monkeys, they are the natives of the desert, the elves in the sand, and it is trivial to walk in the sand.

After diving for a long distance, Jiang Rong took Geeta and Xiao Jue to act separately to find the mausoleum. (To be continued.) )
