After everyone regained their strength, Wang Xing said: "Now everyone gathers all the wild vegetables and weeds around the lake, and I will see which ones are not poisonous before eating." ”

Zhong Feiyan said: "Okay, those five people in a group, let's search on both sides and meet on the opposite side." ”

"Okay, that's it."

In Wang Xing's group, leading Zhong Feiyan, Fu Yingying, Zhao Sanpang, Gu Ji and Yu Xiaobei to the other side, under the guidance of Wang Xing, which ones can be wanted and which ones don't have to be picked, half an hour later, everyone met on the opposite side.

Both groups found a large number of wild vegetables and weeds, and after Wang Xing's screening, the rest were edible, and everyone smiled excitedly when they saw a large number of wild vegetables that were edible.

Wang Xing said: "These wild vegetables can be eaten, and you can eat them after you all take them and wash them." ”

The team members all walked to the lake with wild vegetables, washing and eating at the same time, thinking back to the time of walking in the desert in the past few days, even if they are eating wild vegetables now, they also feel very lucky, Zhong Feiyan next to Wang Xing looked at the washed vegetable leaves, and began to put a few leaves in his mouth.

said: "Why some are sweet and some are bitter. ”

Wang Xing said: "As long as it is harmless to the human body, eating these wild vegetables and weeds can not only satisfy hunger but also improve people's physical strength, and the remaining inedible ones can be used as medicinal materials, which are also good medicinal materials." ”

After a while, everyone had almost eaten the wild vegetables in their hands, and Fu Yingying said: "Team leader, the remaining wild vegetables are enough for us to eat, but we still have a problem drinking water, and we can only drink it once before leaving." ”

Everyone felt that it was a problem, every member of the team looked at Wang Xing, and they all regarded Wang Xing as their soul figure, Wang Xing said: "Sanpang and Yin Tianjun, the two of you look at the top of the mountain in the east, and the other looks at the top of the mountain in the north, whether we have reached the end of the desert, see if the Gobi Desert is still a desert in the distance, and we will decide after we come back." ”

Guji said, "There is a water source here, so it shouldn't be far from the jungle or meadow to the north, right?" ”

Everyone hoped that it would no longer be a desert, and if there was no water, it would have to be the same as the journey a few days ago, and the three fats quickly rushed to the top of the mountain to the east after receiving Wang Xing's order.

After more than forty minutes, Sanfat and Yin Tianjun both returned to their original places, both of them shook their heads, and Sanfat said: "In addition to the mountains near here in the east, there are some stones, and there is still a boundless desert in the distance. ”

Everyone was very disappointed, and turned their heads to look at Yin Tianjun again, hoping to get good news from him, and Yin Tianjun said: "It's the same in the north, a vast desert, until the end of the sight. ”

"It seems that the water source here can only give us a relieving effect, I don't know how far the vast desert will go." Fu Yingying said.

Guji pointed to the sky and said, "Could it be that God has given us hope and shattered it?" ”

After Gu Ji finished speaking, he angrily kicked the sand on the ground, Zhong Feiyan saw Gu Ji's kicking action, and said with a smile: "Hey, can we take off the boots and wash them and fill them with water?" ”

Everyone looked at Zhong Feiyan excitedly after hearing this method, but Wang Xing said: "This is a method, but boots can't make much water, and if we all walk barefoot under the hot desert, the soles of our feet will soon be burned and blisters, once it is inflamed, no one can get out of this desert." ”

Everyone bowed their heads and was silent, and Yang Hu lowered his head and whispered, "If only there were any bottles and cans." ”

Guji listened, bottles and cans? He seemed to think of something, turned his head to look at Wang Xing, and said: "Team leader, didn't you say that this should be a good place, according to what you said, this should be a good dragon vein, maybe there is an emperor's tomb nearby or something, if we can find any bottles and cans, we can hold water." ”

Wang Xing said: "It stands to reason that this should be a good place, but there are deserts nearby, so there shouldn't be any emperor's tombs or anything like that." ”

Guji said: "This is not necessarily, in ancient times, good feng shui was used as a cemetery, and since there is a water source here, maybe there will be a cemetery nearby." ”

Wang Xing said: "Even if there is a cemetery near here, it is difficult for us to find it with just a military thorn, and even if we find it, it is difficult to enter." ”

As soon as Wang Xing's words were finished, everyone was silent, and Wang Xing continued to say: "In this way, we are looking carefully to the lake to see if there is anything that can be filled with water, or if there is anything to find." ”

Everyone divided into two groups and searched both sides of the lake again, and after a while, everyone came to the same place and found nothing.

Guji looked at the surface of the lake and thought for a while and said, "Could it be that there is something else under this lake?" You see, the highest water level of this lake seems to be here, but there are wild vegetables and weeds in the water by the lake, but it doesn't look like they grow in the water, it should be that the water level here has just risen, which means that the water here is connected to the underground river, and the underground river is large, and the water level here rises, maybe there is some cave or something like that. ”

Everyone looked at the lake, and the water here did seem to be a little deep, although the lake was wide, but it may not be the same as Guji said.

"Underwater? Probably not, if it's underwater, how can you build a tomb? Fu Yingying said.

Wu Jun and Shen Zegang looked at the lake excitedly, and Wu Jun said: "That's it, Shen Zegang and I dived into the water to see if there was any situation." ”

Wang Xing said: "Okay, you see what's going on in the water, if there's any cave or something, don't go in yet, if there's really a cemetery, there must be danger here." ”

The two took the glow sticks handed to them by Yu Xiaobei, and after taking off their coats and boots, the two jumped into the lake and disappeared into the water, and everyone looked at the calm lake with anxious faces.

After about ten minutes, the two appeared on the lake, one with a smile on his face, the other with a frown, and everyone didn't know if they had found anything.

Guji asked excitedly, "Have you found anything?" ”

"There is indeed a man-made cave under the lake, Shen Zegang and I dived into it about ten meters away and found two stone wall holes, each with two words written as if it was life and death, so the two of us didn't go in."

Guji said: "What kind of words are you, I will see if you recognize it when you write it?" ”

After the two of them wrote out the two in their memories, Gu Ji could see at a glance what the script of the dynasty was, and Gu Ji said: "This is the script of the ancient Xixia Kingdom. ”

"Western Xia? How many years ago did this happen? Zhong Feiyan said.

For history, Wang Xing also knows a little, also because of his amazing memory and the ability to never forget, and Guji knows better, he has loved and studied historical and cultural antiques since he was a child, and he knew the Xixia script at a glance.

Gu Ji said: "Xixia is a small country in the Song Dynasty and the Mongol period, the Xixia country has a history of almost two hundred years, maybe there is a big figure in the Tangut Kingdom, but there are two doors we want to walk into?" If you make a mistake, you may be in danger. ”

For these people who don't know anything are silent, and Gu Ji thought for a while and then said: "At that time, the writing of the Western Xia Kingdom was evolved according to the Han Dynasty, and the Taoists like to treat life and death as life is death, and death is life, but Western Xia is different, so I suspect that the door of life and death here is not necessarily dangerous, so let's try it." ”

Wang Xing said: "There are only two of us here who will hold their breath, if we go down, we won't be able to stay long, and we won't be able to come back before we find a place, now there is an opportunity to send Shen Zegang and Wu Jun down, but it is likely to be dangerous, the second is that we don't care about life and death, go directly through the desert, no matter which minute is only half a chance, all of us discuss it." ”

Everyone was thinking, indeed, no one expected that it must be right, if it was wrong, it would be dangerous, and no one knew how long this desert would have to go, if it was two or three days longer, it might really be over.

Wu Jun said: "Team leader, I'm willing to try it, go to the door of life, if you walk in, I will come back and report what I find, if I go wrong, you Shen Ze just walked through the door of death, since this is an ancient tomb, then there must be bottles and cans, everyone will be able to get out of the desert." ”

Wang Xing said: "Since you are so determined, then you pay more attention to safety, you apply these herbs to your body, you are not afraid of snakes in the water, if you encounter any danger, return immediately, remember." ”

Everyone watched Wu Jun dive into the lake again, Wu Jun sneaked into the door of life and death, and walked into the door without hesitation, holding a glow stick in his hand, and swam in the gate for three minutes and encountered an upward turn, Wu Jun quickly went upstream, and after a short time, Wu Jun came out of the water.

And Wu Jun saw that there was a stone ladder around, the stone ladder did not enter the water, it seems that the water level here is sometimes high and sometimes low, Wu Jun climbed up along the stone ladder, and looked at the top of the ladder hole, a space about ten meters large, there are all kinds of ceramics next to it, and there are two large boxes, Wu Jun opened it to see, it was all gold and silver jewelry.
