Chapter 77: Desert Lake

Before coming, Charlotte never imagined that she would see a lake in the desert, because the minerals at the bottom of the lake make the lake water show a colorful color, and the sparkling waves under the clear sunlight are like a magnificent gem in the vast golden desert, Charlotte originally just wanted to replenish the water bladder, but when she saw such a beautiful lake, she couldn't help but stay,

"How can there be a lake in the desert?"

Even plants are rare here, and the lake is a big surprise. Listin knows a little about geography and answers Charlotte's doubts,

"It rains in the desert, but a lake of this size would have flowed down the mountain and along the river to this depression, and it would evaporate in the dry season."

"Are there any fish in the lake?"

Since the water is coming down from the mountains, there is a possibility that the fish eggs will be washed down.

"Maybe there will be, let's go look in the lake."

The six of them were tired and thirsty after walking in the desert for a long time, and the food they prepared was all hard bread and other easy-to-store food, at this time, Charlotte couldn't help but be hungry when she saw the clear lake water, if there were fish, then you could open meat today!

The two rolled up their trouser legs and went into the water, the lake was very shallow, and the water was only up to Charlotte's knees.

"The water is lukewarm!"

Because the lake is clear, there is a hint of coolness when you look at it, so much so that you ignore that this is a desert, with a clear sky and a bright sun.

Charlotte leaned over and washed her face with a handful of warm lake water,

"Li Sting, you also wash, it's very comfortable."

After washing her face, Charlotte moved forward a few steps and held the water in her palm, this time she drank the water,

"Ah, it's salty."

Listin had no time to stop it, so he had to watch Charlotte wrinkle into a bun face, and the four bishops were not as interested as the young people, they washed their faces by the lake, filled their water bladders, and then turned around and went to rest under the trees by the lake.

A few more turns, not to mention the fish, not even a small worm can be found, Charlotte pursed her lips a little frustrated, and Li Stin couldn't bear to suggest,

"The water quality of this lake is clear, the temperature is just right, and now there are no people in a radius of hundreds of miles, you can use this water to take a bath, and we will help you watch it."

Soaking in the water in the arid desert did make her feel refreshed, but the reserved nature of the Charlotte maiden made her embarrassed to be naked in broad daylight, so she was a little hesitant.

"It's okay, no one will come anyway, a few of us will definitely not peek, if it wasn't for taking care of you, I would wash it myself."

Charlotte looked at the dust on the two of them, and felt itchy on their skin,

"Okay then, I'll call you guys when I'm done washing, you know?"

After repeated reassurances from Listin, Charlotte decided to take a bold open-air bath.

Charlotte has always preferred tender cyan, she first soaked in the tender cyan lake to wet her long hair, and then groped under the water again, but did not find the shadow of the fish, Charlotte got out of the water in disappointment, turned her head to look at Listin and a few people, saw that they were sleeping soundly with their backs to themselves before continuing to explore the lake with confidence, the tender cyan had enough fun Charlotte swam towards the red part, the bright red made people have a bad association, soaking in the red lake Charlotte was inexplicably nervous, maybe she thought of blood killing or something. Charlotte dived to the bottom again, the bottom of the lake was sand mixed with clumps of minerals, not a single aquatic plant could be seen, no wonder there were no fish, and even if the fish hatched, they would not survive. Charlotte, who had been in the red lake and had a dark imagination, swam deeper leisurely, the deeper she went, the warmer Charlotte felt, this kind of pleasure like being massaged lured Charlotte into the deep water, although it was deep water, but it was only to Charlotte's chest, she was not worried about any danger, a lake without even fish was not a threat to humans at all, Charlotte relaxed her vigilance and enjoyed the warm water massage.

When he first lay down, Listin didn't dare to sleep, he had to watch for Charlotte, but maybe he was too tired these days, and the warm sand under the tree was too comfortable, so he fell asleep unconsciously.

The breeze blew and raised light sand and dust, and soon it fell again, and the surroundings were quiet.

Swimming to the bottom of the lake in the deep water, Charlotte reached out and stirred in the golden sand, so that she found the baby, and out of the lake Charlotte put the treasure she had just found in the sun.

"Is this a diamond?"

Charlotte muttered to herself and expressed her inner doubts, the treasures everywhere at the bottom of the lake can't really be diamonds, right? The baby flashed in the sunlight and blinded Charlotte's eyes.

Although she is not short of money and has even lived a rich life since crossing over to Charlotte, the attraction of diamonds to women should not be underestimated, these small crystalline stones are the love of all women, and the number of such stones at the bottom of the lake is so large that Charlotte can't help but be hot-headed even if it is Charlotte.

Charlotte, who turned over, burrowed back into the lake and began to dig up these little treasures at the bottom of the lake, they were buried shallowly, as if they were waiting for someone to find them, which was so cute. After a while, Charlotte dug up a small pile, and now Charlotte was wearing nothing, and there were too many diamonds, so she had to gather them together, and when she got ashore, they would help her confirm that they were real diamonds, and then she would come to the bottom of the lake to take them.

On a small road on the border of Visa, Princess Erot's lonely figure looks very pitiful, these days can be said to be the most miserable days she has ever lived, first the royal capital is surrounded, her dignified princess fell into the neighboring country like a lost dog, and then on the way to escape heard the bad news that the palace was occupied, and finally escaped to the Visa Palace but was rejected by the King of Visa, and was expelled by him, it was simply depressed to the extreme.

Ero was born noble, and because of the favor of his father and brother, he has always been strong, and now she is in a depressed situation, and her body and heart have suffered a double blow, and it is inevitable that she can't bear it, and it is already the limit of Princess Ero to support the border, and after shaking her body for a few times, she finally fainted on the side of the road in front of her.

This border is inaccessible, Princess Hérault fell on the side of the road for a long time and still did not wake up, no one passed by to wake her up, the guards sent by the king to supervise Princess Hérault saw this scene and felt compassion in their hearts, he felt that Princess Hérault was just a little girl, he followed all the way and did not see anything special, I really can't figure out why the king avoided her like a femme fatale.

"Hey! Wake up! ”

The guard held Ero in his arms and patted her face hard to wake her up, but Princess Ero passed out, her body was exhausted to the limit, no matter how he patted, there was no reaction, the guard was helpless and couldn't bear to throw her a weak little girl in the wilderness, but remembering the king's instructions, the guards hesitated, and just wanted to drop her ruthlessly, but I didn't expect Ero to have consciousness, and the guard looked at the beautiful girl who slowly opened her eyes in panic,

"Help me!"

Princess Ero's voice was immature and hoarse, and the big eyes of anticipation stared straight at the guard, so that he couldn't dodge, if Ero didn't wake up, he could still leave ruthlessly, but now that she woke up, the guard couldn't forget the eyes full of pleading and dependence anyway, and sighed helplessly in his heart, but he still carried her, as long as she didn't let her run to the king, it should be fine, the guard could only comfort himself like this.

Princess Eero opened her mouth to ask this strange man for help with only a small hope, after all, it can be seen from his clothes that he is the guard of the King of Visa, and it is less likely that he will betray the king to help him than Mars hitting the earth, but she still tried, if she didn't try, she would really die in this wilderness, but what she didn't expect was that before she had time to promise any benefits, the man took the initiative to carry her and return the same way. Princess Ero couldn't figure out for a moment how could there be such a kind man, who didn't hesitate to betray his master just to save a stranger?

Ero was already thin, and the toss has become lighter these days, the man carries the girl on his back like a sack without pressure, and he still walks briskly when he walks far away, Princess Ero has the heart to please him, and by the way, he also wants to know where he is going,

"Brother Guard, are you tired? Put me down! I'm now rested and can walk on my own. Where are we going? ”

The guards tossed her up, ignoring her pleas to come down and go.

"Don't call me that, I have a name."

Princess Ero asked embarrassedly,

"And what's your name? I'm Ero, you should have known that. ”

"Well, the princess of the neighboring country, I have heard of you for a long time, you can call me Bill in the future, my family will call me Bill."

Hérault immediately changed his words,

"Bill, where are we going?"

"Are you afraid I'll sell you?"

Ero was afraid that it would be bad for him to provoke him, so he hurriedly denied his worries,

"How is that possible! You're my savior, you're a kind and good person, you won't sell me, right? ”

A big top hat was put on the man's head, Bill laughed silently, Princess Ero realized that she was too obvious to please the fool and let Bill see the joke, and fell on his back in shame and stopped talking, Bill felt a pity, this little girl was very funny to talk about, why didn't she say it?

The shadow of the sun is slanting westward, the original shadow of the tree is gradually shifting, the hot sun wakes up a few people who are asleep, just now they slept very comfortably, Xixi stretched his waist and opened the lid of the pot and drank a sip of wine,

"What about Charlotte? Didn't rest with us? ”

Li Stin looked back at the lake, only to see that the calm lake was not alarmed, how could there be Charlotte's shadow, Li Stin was shocked, and quickly looked around and couldn't find Charlotte,

"Old fellow! What time is it now?! ”

Sissy hurriedly took out his pocket watch and looked at it,

"Don't worry! It's only been an hour, and it's not too late. ”

Listin was annoyed when she heard that she had slept for an hour, Charlotte still remembered the time when she fell into the water at Edward Castle, who knew if it would be okay this time.

"Charlotte! Charlotte, where are you?! ”

Listin shouted Charlotte's name as she ran towards the lake, and the four cardinals didn't know what was happening, but they were also worried when they saw Listin's panicked appearance.

"Charlotte lost??"

"No, it won't! Before I went to bed, I saw them frolicking in the lake, how could they lose their kung fu after such a while. ”

Clark frowned,

"What if Listin didn't care about Charlotte and went to sleep by herself? This is terrible, if you can't find Pope Charlotte, you really can't be saved! ”
