I don't know how long it took, Wang Lihong finally woke up slowly. When I opened my eyes and looked around, I saw that the roof was a yellowed ceiling, surrounded by white, but dilapidated-looking walls.

Wang Lihong was really lying on the bed, he slowly got up from the bed, and at this time there was a sound of footsteps at the door, and he knew that someone was coming.

Entering the door was an old man, an old man with a white turban on his head, a wrinkled face and a white beard. He was dressed a bit like the Arabs in the Middle East.

"Ha la shh The old man said something in his mouth.

Wang Lihong didn't understand a word, so he said to him in English: "Old man, I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying." ”

At this time, the old man said to Wang Lihong in English: "Young man, you have finally woken up." ”

"Old man, what about my companion? How is she? Wang Lihong suddenly remembered Lan Xi, and immediately asked.

The old man walked to Wang Lihong's side with a smile, brought him a bowl of goat's milk or something, and said to him: "Your friend has been poisoned by the fire scorpion, and now your other companion is taking care of her, but now there is nothing to do, fortunately you sent her over, otherwise she would definitely not live." You haven't eaten in two days, come, drink this bowl of milk tea first. ”

Wang Lihong was a little relieved after hearing the news, as soon as he heard this other companion, Wang Lihong just wanted to say something, and then remembered that Wang Zhichu and they might have been here, after all, he didn't know how long he had been in a coma.

Wang Lihong took the milk brought by the old man and said gratefully: "Thank you!" After finishing that, he raised his head and took a few sips, and drank all the milk in this big bowl. Although this milk has a smell, Wang Lihong still thinks it is very delicious. After drinking it, I feel much more energetic.

After communicating with this old man, he learned that this old man's name is Ramos-Kula, and he is the leader of this oasis town, and everyone calls him Chief Ramos.

In fact, this so-called oasis town is not a small town, but a tribe called Nanu in this desert. The tribe has had little contact with the outside world, but it is not uncommon to encounter lost tourists and adventurers.

Wang Lihong walked into Lan Xi's room. At this time, Lan Xi had also woken up, and looking at her face, she knew that she was much better now.

Lan Xi looked at Wang Lihong, tears dripping from the corners of her eyes, but with a smile on her face, she said to Wang Lihong: "Thank you, Lihong!" ”

Wang Lihong looked at Lan Xi, who had gradually recovered, and felt very relieved in his heart, and returned a smile. walked up to Lan Xi's side and said gently, "Fool! Thank you, it's just a trivial matter. ”

At this time, Wang Zhichu happened to walk in from outside, saw Wang Lihong in the house, walked over and hugged Wang Lihong, and said gratefully: "Lihong, thank you for saving Xiaoxi." ”

"Hey, I said you're really father and daughter. One thanked me, and now the other one is back. I said, can you please stop being so polite. Wang Lihong said half-jokingly, because he didn't want the atmosphere to be so embarrassing.

Wang Lihong walked out of the room and asked Lan Xi to recuperate again. When he walked out of the doorway, he was puzzled to see the desolation. I walked through several places with doubts, but it was still so deserted.

Wang Lihong doesn't understand. He found Chief Ramos and asked, "Chief, isn't this an oasis for you, why is this place so desolate?" And I think many of you have a serious water shortage. ”

Ramos's old face was clouded, but he didn't say anything. There were a few very plainly dressed old men next to him. They made a gesture that he couldn't understand Wang Lihong, and then they went out of the chief's house one after another.

Wang Lihong didn't get the answer he wanted to know in Ramos's house, but he didn't ask anything, after all, these tribes have their own unique religious beliefs, as an outsider, of course they are not easy to offend, not to mention that they also saved your life.

There is another point, since people can save you, maybe they can kill you, these tribes may look like beggars, but maybe there will be some magic or something, just like on the cruise ship, the old man and his group, Wang Lihong has seen it with his own eyes.

Wang Lihong walked around in this tribe and found a very strange thing, there are very few young and strong men in this tribe, basically some old people in their forties and fifties, there are very few young people, and there are little dolls who are a few years old and ten years old.

"Where have the young men of this tribe gone? Could it be that all of them went out to work in other places? Wang Lihong thought about it, it should be like this, yes.

Wang Lihong walked around the tribe in a big circle, and did not see the so-called oasis, he was very strange, ran to Nasser and asked, "Hey, didn't you say that this is an oasis town?" How did I see that it was a deserted tribe, where was the oasis you were talking about? ”

Nasser is now slowly recovering, but he does not dare to run away alone, because if he escapes from this tribe, he will probably die in the long desert. As for Wang Lihong, he was still very jealous, after all, he had seen Wang Lihong's terror and ruthlessness, so he said honestly: "Isn't there a high cliff behind this tribe?" The oasis is at the other end of the cliff, and there is a tribe on that side that has always occupied the water source and the use of the oasis. ”

"I see. Oh, by the way, how do you know so much about what's going on here? Wang Lihong felt that this guy was a little strange, how could he know so much about these tribes.

Now Nasser can only explain honestly, he said: "My friends and I used to do smuggling, because the Egyptian border and the Sudanese border are very strict inspections, so we can only go to the desert to bypass a few sentry posts, and over time we will know more or less." ”

Wang Lihong knocked on Nasser's head and said, "It seems that your kid has done a lot of hurtful things." ”

"By the way, tell me what the situation of that tribe is." Wang Lihong was very interested in the tribe on the other side of the cliff, and wanted to know who was so awesome that he could dominate this oasis.

Nasser did not dare to disobey, so he said: "Actually, I don't know much about that tribe, because they are very evil and terrible, and they are very reluctant to visit people of foreign tribes. That tribe was called the Abra tribe, and they worshipped the snake god and considered the giant serpent Apophis to be their patron god. Few people know anything about that tribe, because once outsiders enter that tribe's territory, they basically can't come back. ”

"It's so domineering." Wang Lihong sighed to himself.

Although Lan Xi's scorpion degree was suppressed, if he wanted to recover, Chief Ramos suggested that it was best to cultivate for another two or three days, otherwise it might recur due to the lack of toxins, and at that time, there would be no way to return to heaven.

Wang Zhichu and Wang Lihong agreed, and it just so happened that they could also cultivate in this place. (To be continued.) )
