Chapter 169: Despair, Despair!

The yellow sand is all over the sky, boundless, and as lonely as a desert.

No one would think that this is a corner of the prairie in the depths of the prairie.

Yao'er wiped a handful of yellow sand and said softly to Shen Ren: "No matter what, that qiē is already in the past." Once unfortunate is not the greatest misfortune, the greatest misfortune is to indulge in the memories of unfortunate misfortune and let that misfortune affect you forever. You're alive and well, that's happiness!

If you know what kind of pain you have suffered, it is even more important to live well now instead of dwelling on the painful past! Remembering the dead, we must cherish the living! This is an old man who is over 100 years old told me, and I have been doing what he says, so I live a happy life. ”

Shen Renzui raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "His words must be reasonable?" ”

Yao'er showed an unusually respectful look on her face, and said, "If he says it, I will believe it!" Besides, the old man has lived to such an old age, and has experienced far more life than us, and his words must be more reasonable than mine, if not the most reasonable in this world. Intoxicating, God favors you, let you live, you are still alive in this world, then you should work hard to find happiness in the world, don't live up to God's favor for you! ”

Looking at Yao'er's unusually sincere eyes, Shen Ren's heart throbbed for a while, and Yao'er's sincere tone could not see a trace of falsification, and he doubted his judgment even more, but he still couldn't be sure.

After all, what he did was too much to do......

Shen Renzui said softly: "I will." ”

Shen Ren's drunken eyes slowly raised: "I want to ...... too Eat a bowl of rice. ”

The two men looked at each other and smiled, and the smile was like a quiet night light. Suddenly it lit up, illuminating the way forward in an instant.

……

Intoxicating, look. There's a stump here, aren't we going to get out there?

Yao'er found a tree trunk standing alone in the sandy land, and immediately rushed over happily.

It's hard to say!

Shen Rendrunk also hurried over and leaned over to take a look. The joy is gone. Said: This is a poplar tree. As the old saying goes, Populus euphratica lives without dying for a thousand years, and dies without falling for a thousand years. Immortal for a thousand years, this half of the stump is not necessarily when.

Shen Rendrunk bent down and took a closer look at the stump. It is smoother to stroke. There are few cracks and uneven pimples: This side should be facing the south, let's go this way!

Yao'er didn't ask him the reason. Along the way, she already knew the knowledge of surviving in the desert, and Shen Rendrunk knew far more than her, so she had no objections.

Shen Rendrunk knocked down a handful of tree trunks from the stump and held them in his hands. Look back at the stake from time to time. Make sure you're not going stumbling. When the stake was completely out of sight and could no longer be seen, he stuck a thorn in the sand from time to time with the twisted thorn in his hand. Along the way, he always made use of a qiē marker, making a mark for each section to make sure he was walking in a straight line.

This is the fifth day of their 100,000 hill songs.

Unfortunately, the weather has been bad these days, either stormy or cloudy. One of the two horses had frozen to death the day after they entered, and the other had neither forage to feed. There is nothing to protect from the cold, and I have been having diarrhea and weakness since the day before yesterday.

The storm that day was so violent that they couldn't stand on their feet, and they couldn't see five paces away.

When they finally arrived at a sand valley, the half-dead horse, who didn't know if his eyes were hurt by the wind and sand, suddenly broke the reins from his hand like crazy, and quickly disappeared into the vast sea of sand.

The horse that died earlier, Shen Rendrunk collected some horse meat and carried it on the horse's back, ready to be used as food in case of emergency, but it disappeared with its disappearance, fortunately, the water wine and dried meat that were originally in the bag, in order to avoid being cold and hard when eating, were all carried into Yao'er's arms, which became their only food.

Two bags of water and wine, even if how to save, now the consumption is only half a bag, at this time the degree of water wine is not high, but also has the effect of keeping out the cold, relying on this water wine, they can easily overcome the cold of the winter night, you can imagine, when the water and wine are drunk, how difficult the days should be.

The jerky was almost eaten, although Shen Renzui could still keep calm when he was in a hurry, but the hunger and fear that fell when he was a child had a great impact on him, seeing that the food was getting less and less, the fear that had been deeply engraved in his heart since he was a child lingered, making him extremely anxious.

The day in the desert is too hot, the night is too cold, the two of them wrapped a qiē thing that can keep out the cold to no avail, after losing the war horse, they have to hug each other tightly when they rest at night, as much as possible to keep their bodies from being exposed to the biting cold wind, it is in this kind of tight snuggling time, Shen Rendrunk can feel it, in fact, he has not been able to really fall asleep.

Although forcibly suppressed by his strong will, the fear of hunger that hid deep in his heart reminded him of the nightmarish memories of his childhood, and the moment when he was worried about running out of food, maybe when that moment came, it was when his spirit broke down completely.

Haruka could see the fear hidden in the depths of his eyes.

Such a journey of death, even if accompanied by a handsome guy, is definitely not pleasant and romantic. Along the way, these 100,000 Qiu Ming are always boundless sand seas, seemingly endless, it is a kind of desperate fear, even the always optimistic Yao'er began to despair, she doesn't know how big this sand sea is, and she doesn't know if they can still walk out.

But as long as they can still walk, they must insist, Shen Renzui has a phobia left by his childhood, and is on the verge of collapse, so she must not show a collapsed look at this time, although Shen Renzui is more experienced than him in this desert, but Yao'er knows that she is now Shen Renzui's spirit, if she also collapses, the string that Shen Renzui has collapsed in his heart will be broken immediately.

Two people, step by step, walking in the endless desert.

Gradually, the sky darkened again. Two staggering figures, hidden in the distant sand dunes......

……

The endless storm came again, and it was the tenth day that they had walked directly through the yellow sand.

Food and water have all been depleted. The two of them were hungry and tired, and although the cold winter did not deplete the water so quickly, the feeling of hunger and thirst was still very strong, and Haruka felt that her throat was dry and about to smoke, and her lips were already like chapped dead bark.

Shen Ren's drunkenness was even worse than her, and he had been in fear and worry all these days, every time he ate. He was like a calculating "little woman" who distributed food and water with incredible precision. Rao is so, the jerky and water and wine are still eaten. When there was no more water to pour out of the bag, and the last piece of jerky in the bag was eaten, Haruka saw that the endless fear in his eyes finally appeared.

The wind won't stop, so let's keep going. Thankfully, it's a tailwind. If you go fast, you won't ...... Ahem, lost my eyes.

Haruka spoke to him with difficulty, her thirsty throat seemed to be stuffed with gravel, and it hurt when she spoke.

Shen Ren sat drunk on the ground, pinching the empty pocket and stunned.

Yao'er frowned and said, "Intoxicating, let's go!" While we still have the strength......

Can't leave. When we run out of food, we'll die here. Starve...... Starve to death here......

Shen Ren was not only trembling in his voice, but also trembling in his body, his body and mind were immersed in endless fear, all kinds of human tragedies he had seen in his childhood, and all kinds of unforgettable fears had been buried in his heart, and they all emerged at this moment.

Yao'er frowned, she knew why Shen Renzui was afraid, but she couldn't imagine, and she couldn't imagine how much mental trauma Shen Renzui had caused to him in his childhood.

She couldn't understand the helplessness and extreme fear that Shen Rendrunk expressed in front of her.

And at this moment, Shen Rendrunk seems to have returned to that miserable childhood, as if he has become the thin child who is hungry, helpless, abandoned by his relatives, and coveted by countless people as food, surrounded by endless fear.

Shen people are drunk!

If we can't leave, we'll starve, we'll all starve......

Shen Rendrunk didn't seem to hear what she was saying at all, just muttered to himself. Yao'er frowned, and suddenly dragged him up, Shen Rendrunk looked at her in surprise, Yao'er said loudly: Go! Keep going! Maybe we'll be able to get out of the house soon, but I don't believe there's no edge to this place, let's go! Keep going!

Shen Rendrunk was like a helpless child, dragged by her, and walked forward step by step.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and in just a moment's effort, the two of them were swept into the rolling yellow sand again, and they could no longer be seen......

They didn't know how long they had walked, but they had stopped in the middle and slept together in a leeward place, and they didn't know how long they had slept, and as they continued on their endless journey, the wind seemed to be a little lighter, but the two hungry and thirsty men could barely walk a step.

It's useless, we'll starve here......

Shen Renzui's originally smart eyes were a little dull, and the only thing he could repeat was this sentence, and the only thing that lingered in his mind was the thought of starving to death. Haruka no longer had the strength to refute him, she was like a moving zombie, forcing her feet to move forward and backward with a strong will.

In addition to hunger and cold, the robes that were originally very thick and cold don't have much effect on keeping warm now, because they can't emit much heat from their bodies, and the extreme cold seems to be able to penetrate into the marrow of people, Yao'er only feels that her body is frozen stiff, and now it's not just Shen Ren who is drunk, even she is desperate.

Suddenly, Yao'er's feet softened, and she fell headlong on the sand dune, and Shen Rendrunk, who was dragged by her arm, also fell, and the two of them rolled from the sand dunes to the bottom of the hill. Yao'er struggled to stand up, but when she only knelt on one leg, she felt that her eyes were dark, and she fell to the sand again.

Shen Rendrunk didn't struggle, he just lay quietly beside Yao'er, his face was covered with dust, his face was haggard, and his chapped lips were bloodshot, but he looked like he had a pitiful decadence.

Yao'er, don't bother......

He spoke suddenly, his voice was very clear, and he no longer had that feeling of infatuation, Yao'er couldn't help but turn his head to look at him, the confusion and fear in Shen Ren's drunken eyes were gone, and his eyes seemed to be clear all of a sudden.

She looked up at the gloomy sky, listened to the whistling wind, and suddenly smiled at Yao'er, and the smile was very quiet: We are really going to die...... (To be continued......)
