The night passed in a hurry.

Zhang Xiaobao slept peacefully, but the son over there had a dream all night, dreaming that he occupied the land of Zhang Wang's two Zhuangzi, and drove the two families away, and woke up with a smile in the dream several times.

Li Xun got up early in the morning, he also carried a backpack on his body, he didn't know what to put in it, only put a blanket and a few silk handkerchiefs, and he really couldn't think of the rest, things on the grass, he thought that they couldn't be used in the desert, after all, there were not so many insects in the desert, let alone wild vegetables.

The thing he wants to figure out most now is what Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan both brought, originally he could ask yesterday, but he was so angry that he forgot about it, and now it's not good to ask directly, so he can only follow behind and see how the two of them do it.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan changed to a pair of shoes designed by the two of them today, the original shoes with wooden soles are gone, and the leather soles are not needed, and some shoes with rag soles are specially made for people, and some small pimples are glued with fish glue at the bottom, one person and one backpack have not changed, with a hat on his head, and the clothes he wears are also long-sleeved.

At the same time, I also brought some saltpeter with the highest purity here, and some salt, and other food was not loaded, and it would be turned out if it was loaded.

After some inspection, several people who wanted to bring something to eat were warned once, and the things were left, and then the team marched into the desert.

Some left, some new joined, and the total number was not less, but more than a dozen, and the younger ones were relatively small, only forty-five.

As soon as the more than 140 children entered the desert, more than 50 people rushed out, and none of the other 80 or so people ran so wildly, and almost at the same time set their eyes on Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

"Juanjuan, it seems that they have learned wisely, and they are not as stupid as when they were on the grassland." Zhang Xiaobao felt the eyes around him, smiled, and said to Wang Juan.

"Well, these people must be the part of the grassland at the beginning, it seems that we are being targeted, let's go, the next place with water is three miles away, tie the rope."

Wang Juan glanced at those people, took out a rope while talking, and tied them to their waists with Zhang Xiaobao, one is to prevent quicksand, even if Li Xun will definitely send someone to check this side, they must also be fully prepared and get used to the problem, and the other is when climbing the sand pile, in case one of them does not step on it steadily, the other can help.

The two men walked forward one by one again, trying to keep their heels slightly off the ground, their legs slightly bent, leaning forward, and taking out a retractable stick from their backpacks and carrying them forward.

Li Xun didn't expect Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan to be so prepared, and now they can't let people bring things over, so they have to follow behind, and when they are wondering, they feel that they don't need to use a stick, just go directly, and the rope is redundant.

Except for the children of the Li family Zhuangzi, the others are rich people, and the refined little leather boots are worn on the feet, and they are soft when they step on the sand, and they feel very comfortable.

When everyone was walking, their eyes swept the backpacks of Zhang Xiaobao and the others from time to time, hoping that the two of them could take out their things as soon as possible, and they didn't care if they were left behind for the children who were ahead.

The newcomers didn't know about this, but when they saw the children running to the front, they began to praise each other, just like the parents on the prairie at the beginning.

Parents who have experienced the grassland incident have long lost this kind of thought, and when they hear what others say, they can only sigh that they are too short-sighted.

The desert is not big, but there is no shortage of sand dunes, some exist there alone, some are connected, if you want to go around, you have to walk a long way, the children choose to climb directly, no one wants to go far.

At this time, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's shoes showed their advantages, even if the small pimple under the shoes could not firmly grasp the ground, it also made the two of them not crawl and slide down like other people, and the stick in their hands played a big role, inserted into the sand, with a little bit of force, the body could not lean back, even if the foot slid down once, it would not delay things.

"Li Cheng, do you see it, it turns out that it is used like this." After Li Xun saw it in the back, he said to the person who followed next to him, and only after he finished speaking, did he react, that person was not Li Cheng, but a person who was also miscellaneous, named Li Xing.

Li Xing would not be stupid enough to correct the title of the little marquis, and followed beside him: "Childe, and their shoes, look carefully, they are different from what we are wearing, there are some small bumps underneath, smart, wait for tomorrow the little ones will be ready, I don't know this time." ”

"Okay, learn more, you look at the kid over there, it's next to us and Zhang Wang's two Zhuangzi, what's it called, it seems that there is also a loose official, from the fifth grade, it's not small."

Li Xun nodded, after seeing the person who was pretending to be stupid, he was afraid that he would make trouble for Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, after all, that person was older, in case there was any danger, even if he cleaned up that person at that time, Zhang Xiaobao and the others were unhappy and quit, where did he go to learn to survive in the wilderness in the desert?

Li Xing also found the person, his eyes were always on Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan in front of him, and he responded: "I know Gongzi, that is a person from the Han family, his name is Han Yongyao." ”

"Huh, Yongyao? Don't want to show off like him, when he returns to Zhuangzi, there will be a lively look, Zhang Wang's two Zhuangzi are not comparable to other Zhuangzi, the people there are not ordinarily powerful, how far can they go to a place with water? ”

Li Xun looked down on that person in his heart, sneered, felt that today's sunshine was extraordinarily enough, licked his lips with his tongue, looked up at the road in front of him that seemed to never end, and asked.

"It's fast, you can get there if you go so far, today at noon, according to the situation last time, no food, I don't know how many people will not be able to hold on, the desert is not as good as the grassland." Li Xing replied, walked behind, and glanced at Han Yongyao from time to time.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan walked in front, the speed was not fast, when there was no water to replenish, the two of them did not want to consume too much physical strength, and waited until the water was loaded.

The fifty or so children seemed to be tired, and they were still running there desperately, and some of them even deliberately slid down and up again while going up the dunes.

"Xiaobao, do you think there will be a scorpion here? And snakes or something? Then there was something to eat at noon. ”

After climbing to a slightly higher sand dune, Wang Juan stood there and looked down and asked.

"I don't think so, that guy Li Xun must have sent someone to find it a few times in a carpet way, most of the snakes encountered in the sand are poisonous, may he let people bite? Do you go first or do I go first? ”

Zhang Xiaobao stood beside Wang Juan, looked at the road below and said.

"Let's get the stuff out." Wang Juan replied, opened the backpack with Zhang Xiaobao, took out a few wooden boards that were slightly narrower and shorter than the backpack, raised one end slightly, and put them on the ground.

Li Xun and the others also went uphill, and when they saw Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's things, they were stunned for a moment, and then looked at the two people who were about to go below, and they had no choice but to run down.

Without waiting for Li Xun to speak, Li Xing said next to him: "Childe, the little one understands, I must make this tomorrow, don't look at the children in front of me playing and keep walking, they will have no strength, something like this can save a lot of strength." ”

"Well, it's really a bit of a doorway, looking at the two of them, it doesn't seem to be too tired, I can't figure it out and let the two of them arrive first today, okay, I learned again, and when I encounter something like this in the future, I can prepare early."

Li Xun went below, took off his boots and poured sand out, he really admired the person who prepared things for these two children, don't look at a little thing, when you really walk in the desert, you may be able to decide whether a person lives or dies.

The others all wrote down this thing, and they also decided to use it tomorrow, only Han Yongyao was not so clear, he was bent on finding trouble with Zhang Xiaobao and the others, but unfortunately, maybe his family's food was better, he was a little blessed, but he didn't catch up, so he could only follow behind and panting.

The adults behind them were also uncomfortable, watching the children climbing and bones there, they were distressed, and those parents who came over the grassland, without their children worrying, they had already remembered the tools used by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

They sighed again in their hearts, looking at the tacit understanding of the two little guys, they felt that if it was their own child, they would definitely be held in their arms and pity, they were too sensible and too strong, they had never seen the two of them shouting tired, let alone expecting to see them crying sadly.

I can't help but envy the family of the two people, and I don't know how they teach, how they look at how they think these two little guys are like adults, in addition to these, they are also cute, chubby little faces, and when they smile, they show two dimples, and a pair of eyes can speak.

Zhang Xiaobao and the others didn't know that someone else wanted to take them for themselves, so they went downhill, loaded the planks, and continued to move forward step by step, and after a while, they arrived at the place where water was provided.
