Chapter 124: Only You Can See It
Ryan rolled his eyes speechlessly, reached out and pushed Xu Nianran on the shoulder, pushing her down on the sleeping bag.
"Sleep! That's what the stupid woman said about you. β
After he finished speaking, he turned his back to Xu Nianran, sat cross-legged at the door of the tent, and continued to watch the night.
is also a man, God knows how much he envies Chen Youfei in his heart.
Xu Nianran also stopped talking, although she felt that Ryan was not a heinous bad person, but the life experiences of the two were very different, and they might not have a common understanding in a short time, and it was rare to be able to ensure that they were safe.
When the sky was bright, Xu Nianran woke up from freezing, and she opened her eyes to look at Ryan's back.
Ryan sat at the door of the tent, playing with the dagger, throwing it on the sand, pulling it up, throwing it again.
Quite boring.
But that's how he was, in a boring way, and spent countless nights.
Xu Nianran felt that he was a little pitiful.
What is Ryan doing when he is raising his bed and warming his pillow and being coquettish next to the big devil?
"You're not sleeping?" Ryan heard Xu Nianran's breathing change, turned his head and asked.
"Well, I'm awake...... You don't rest? Xu Nianran sat up and wrapped Ryan's jacket tightly.
"I'm resting, who's going to keep vigil? You? I don't know how I died......" Ryan narrowed his eyes and @δΈ@ζ¬@θ―»@ε°θ―΄xstxtζ³θ΅·ι£δΈε’ηη½θ²ε°θ.
Many times, snakes are equated with dragons, and although those little white snakes are small, the one headed by them actually forks at the back of their heads, isn't this a dragon? I just don't know if it's poisonous or not, and I'll have another chance to catch one and take a look.
"It's almost dawn, you can rest for a while, I'll guard it." Xu Nianran climbed out of his sleeping bag and said to Ryan.
Ryan was a little surprised and smiled, "You're here to guard?" All right? β
Xu Nianran nodded, if you can't do it, you have to do it, there are only two people here, and your net worth and life still depend on Ryan, if he doesn't rest well, his danger will be greater.
Ryan looked at the sky, it was estimated that there was still an hour before departure, and he didn't hear any abnormal sounds in the middle of the night, so he handed the dagger to Xu Nianran, "You pay attention to the abnormal noise, pay attention to whether there are sandbags bulging on the ground, there may be some 'small insects'." β
Xu Nianran nodded, it's just a little bug, and she is not afraid.
Of course, when she actually saw it, she knew what a "little bug" was, and she couldn't wait to beat Ryan.
Xu Nianran sat honestly at the door of the tent, she peeked out and saw the two tents above, Joseph sitting by the fire holding his gun.
The sky was bright, I didn't know what today's trip would be, my body's reaction was slightly lightened, but the weakness of my limbs did not subside.
When he set off again, Ryan packed up the tent, put it on top of his backpack, hung it on his chest, and bent down and said, "Let's go, I'll carry you." β
ββ¦β¦ I can walk on my own, I can't walk anymore, I'll trouble you, you can save more energy. Xu Nianran licked her dry lips.
Ryan was not reluctant, it was better not to carry it himself, he threw the backpack back on his back, pulled Xu Nianran, still buckled her belt with a lifeline, and the two followed the large army above.
But they can't come together, it's very inconvenient, Qin Yan and they want to go up, but Ryan and they are all soft sand here, very steep, they can't climb up, and the distance between the two teams is getting bigger and bigger.
"What to do? After walking for so long, I haven't seen a path to climb. Xu Nianran felt a little guilty, if it weren't for himself, Ryan wouldn't have rolled down, and now the two of them stepped on the sand dunes, and it seemed that the distance between them and Qin Yan was getting bigger and bigger.
"It doesn't matter, it's nerve-wracking, let Qin Yan think about it, it's a big deal that I'll take you back, and this trip will be leisure." Ryan said it lightly, in fact, with the current situation that the compass is out of order, it is not very easy for him to take Xu Nianran out of this mountain.
"But...... We're running out of water. Xu Nianran reminded.
"Now, I'll teach you." Ryan turned around, picked up Xu Nianran's kettle, and poured out a shallow small bottle cap, which was just enough for a mouthful.
He handed the bottle cap to Xu Nianran's mouth, "You can only drink one sip of water at a time, and if you hold it in your mouth, you can hold it for as long as you want, and finally swallow it slowly, so that your body will absorb more water." β
I have to admit that Ryan is still more patient with her and has taught her a lot of survival knowledge, which will not be learned by Chen Youfei's side, because Chen Youfei will not let Xu Nianran participate in any camping, exploration, summer camp and other activities.
Therefore, although Xu Nianran was very unwell and in such a dangerous environment, she still felt a little excited.
Ryan didn't put her in danger, and she could still look at their journey with curiosity.
Qin Yan frowned, Xu Nianran was not within his reach, which made him a little unhappy, her physical reaction was the best proof, but she was getting farther and farther away from her according to the direction of the map, how could she go on?
He stood halfway up the hill and looked at Ryan and Xu Nianran below.
Ryan pulled Xu Nianran to trek on the sand dunes, and there was no place to climb as far as the eye could see, how should this be?
Xu Nianran gasped, rubbed his eyebrows, and said to Ryan, "Can you stop for a moment, I feel dizzy." β
"How do you feel?"
"Halo...... Where is this? Xu Nianran threw himself on the sand and asked dizzily.
"Where? This is an unknown sandy area. Ryan was inexplicable.
"That's not right...... There's a pool over there, right? Dark? Xu Nianran pointed ahead, Ryan looked back, squinting at Xu Nianran.
What's the pool there? It's just a sea of sand, and the mountains in the distance don't know how far the actual distance is, and it's dry and without plants, and there are no oases.
Xu Nianran rubbed her eyes vigorously, tears kept coming out, Ryan frowned and pulled her hands, and shouted: "Don't rub it, you don't want eyes anymore!" β
Xu Nianran tried hard to open his sour and sore eyes, the vision of his eyes was a little blurry, and he couldn't even see the expression of Ryan who was close at hand.
Ryan saw her eyes and was secretly frightened, Xu Nianran's eye sockets, the whites of the eyes were covered with bloodshots, and the pupils were larger than usual.
"My eyes hurt so much." Xu Nianran blinked, and tears rolled down uncontrollably.
ββ¦β¦ Okay, I know, but you can't rub it hard, the more you rub it, the more it hurts, I'll help you. Ryan took out the wet towel from the side of the backpack, folded it into a rectangle to cover Xu Nianran's eyes, and asked her to lie down with her head resting on her lap.
Because it was far away, Qin Yan thought that Xu Nianran was just dehydrated or tired, and didn't pay attention to it, thinking that Ryan would deal with it when he was by her side, so he buried his head and studied the map.
The pattern shown on the map is to go up, above this mountain range, there should be a plateau desert, where there is a lake formed by glacial water, which can be replenished, but now Xu Nianran and Ryan can't climb up, and the straight-line distance between the two teams is getting bigger and bigger.
"Ryan, there's a dark lake up ahead." Xu Nianran lay on Ryan's lap and watched him hang his head to shield himself from the dazzling sunlight.
"......" Ryan didn't speak, could Xu Nianran be hallucinating? The sky is bright, and there is no dark lake in the desert?
"It's true, though I can't see the distance." Xu Nianran said firmly, anxiously pulling Ryan's sleeve and trying to get up.
"You lie down first, I'll go over and take a look." Ryan spoke up, wanting to put Xu Nianran on the sand.
"Don't, don't, I'll go with you, don't leave me here alone!" Xu Nianran was so frightened that he hurriedly got up.
Seeing her tear-stained face and terrifying eyes, Ryan frowned, took her hand, and led her to that side.
"Ryan, don't you think it's weird?" Xu Nianran frowned and looked down at his feet.
Her eyes were blurred with tears, and she felt that something was wrong with her whole body, Ryan was like a lifesaver at this time, where did she dare to let go?
"What's the blame?" Ryan looked up at his watch, the compass on it was spinning, and the hands of the clock had all stopped.
There was a magnetic pole here, and it was still very chaotic, Ryan squeezed Xu Nianran's hand, pulled her to his side, and tightened the lifeline that was tightly fastened around the waists of the two of them.
"Don't let me go, if you're left alone, you should know what happened to you." Ryan's voice was completely devoid of ease and banter.
Xu Nianran nodded, she felt that the sand under her feet was moving.
Not blown by the wind, but as if it was swirling in one direction, as if the black lake was a funnel, and the surrounding sand was flowing down that direction.
Qin Yan looked at the two of them and didn't feel anything abnormal, so he lowered his head and continued to study the map.
The only ones who really felt the abnormality were Xu Nianran and Ryan, Xu Nianran was so nervous that he squeezed Ryan's hand tightly until Ryan said: "It's here, are you talking about this piece?" β
Xu Nianran opened her eyes, her eyes hurt from the wind, she frowned and looked at it, nodded and said, "Look, it's right there, it's such a small one?" It looks big from afar......"
She spoke to herself, and Ryan listened in silence, without accosting her.
Xu Nianran muttered to himself for a while, then suddenly stopped, was silent for dozens of seconds, and asked, "Ryan, can't you see?" β
"It's not that I can't see it, but only you can 'see'." Ryan corrected, "Your eyes are different from ours, and there is something here that only you seem to see. β
ββ¦β¦ So, what to do? Do you want to go over? Xu Nianran asked cautiously, then thought of Xing Wensu, and hurriedly added: "Wensu must also be able to see it, he is the same as me." β
Ryan sneered and said, "You said it too late, look, where is Xing Wensu?" β
Yes? Xu Nianran was puzzled and turned his head to look at the mountain.
There was no one on the mountain.
