Volume 2 Chapter 115 - Finding Roque (2)

The grassland at night is more beautiful, the stars are shining, the air is fresh, there are too many mosquitoes, this thing, it is really quite annoying, and I don't know if the mosquitoes in this world have also mutated, super large mosquitoes can often be seen on the grassland, which is several times that of normal mosquitoes, and I don't know where they hide during the day, anyway, they all come out at night, which also makes the women who originally planned to travel at night completely give up the idea of going outside.

No one wants to feed the mosquitoes, but there is always someone to keep watch this night, but fortunately, there are many people, and the time passes quickly.

On the second day, as soon as the sky was bright, everyone was woken up, this has not yet left the grassland, according to Gao Han said, it is necessary to cross the Gobi to reach Roque, the sun at noon is very hot, the grassland is endless, if you don't take advantage of the temperature to rush more, it will increase and waste more time.

After destroying the food left over from yesterday and putting everything in order, the convoy set off again.

Ma Tao They are not moving forward fast, and they are maintained at a speed of fifty or sixty miles, after all, there is green grass everywhere, there are often some protruding stones under the green grass, there is no problem with the steel tracks of the tank car, and it can be directly crushed over, but the jeep is not good, if the speed is not passed, the shock absorption system of the car can turn the small gold down, and as a last resort, he and An Ruo in the car have tightened the seat belts.

When the temperature began to rise at noon, the convoy had already found a place where there were a few small trees in the shade in advance, stopped advancing, eating and drinking water to replenish energy, and set off again in the afternoon when the temperature was not so high, the most troublesome thing for Ma Tao was that when they were resting, they found that there was a Noah monster approaching, so they could only stand against the big sun, climb on the hot chariot to fight, although they did not meet any new monster species on the grassland, the reconnaissance disc was counted, but it was those Noah's armored cars, venom guns, Field artillery or something, it's also very annoying, driving the chariot and tossing it down, and it's sweaty, almost all the clothes on the body are soaked, it's just uncomfortable.

This journey lasted for a short day, when it was dark, the grassland began to recede, and one after another open space began to appear frequently, and the land on the surface of the exposed land was weathered because there was no green grass to cover it, showing the appearance of sea buckthorn, which told Ma Tao that the Gobi mentioned by Gao Han should not be far away.

"Rest in place"

Ma Tao stopped the chariot and used his watch to notify the little gold behind him.

Driving at night, the danger has increased exponentially, and now the sun has begun to set in the west, revealing only a little bit of delicate shyness, the clouds on the horizon are reflected by the last sunlight fiery red, and the dusk before sunset is extraordinarily gorgeous.

Such a beautiful sunset will fade on the horizon for a while, and the temperature is also decreasing a little, which means that the night is coming.

The same night repeats everything from yesterday, the lack of materials is what all mankind has to face, and there will be almost no change in everyone's diet and daily life, otherwise, how can yesterday's wild vegetable porridge make Ma Tao eat with relish, the food is still the same as yesterday, no one is picky, and some of them are already good to eat, many of them have not eaten before, and they have not had a meal to live.

In this place where the grassland and the Gobi are intertwined, there is another strange beauty, the blend of green grass and dry grass, and the natural rules of alternating between the old and the new, no one can change it.

"Brother Tao, the reserve of water is running out, I didn't expect it to be consumed so quickly"

After dinner, Xiao Jinzi came to Ma Tao and said.

"How much is left?"

Although he was prepared, Ma Tao was still slightly surprised to hear the news.

"One day enough"

Little Gold replied.

"I'm afraid one day won't be enough."

Suddenly, another voice said, the two turned around, and it was Gao Han.

Stepping away from her long legs in long boots and taking two steps forward, Gao Han glanced at the two of them and said, "In such a hot weather, the normal consumption of water will definitely increase, and with the addition of cooking, there must be a lot, it should have exceeded expectations."

Ma Tao turned his head to look at Xiao Jinzi, waiting for her explanation.

"I thought it was enough"

Little Gold said.

"The next road needs more water, and humans can withstand 72 hours without food, but often in the desert with temperatures exceeding 40 degrees, as long as they continue to be not replenished with water for two hours, they are prone to heat stroke. Therefore, if you don't get water supply within 24 hours, you can easily get dehydration, and people are often swallowed up by such deserts."

Gao Han added.

"Looks like we'll need to find a water source tomorrow"

When they got closer, Ma Tao noticed that Sister Han's face was a little dirty, and suddenly remembered that none of the three of them washed their faces today.

"What if you can't find it? Do you go back by fax? ”

Gao Han then asked.

"Is there anything you can do?"

Ma Tao heard her say this and knew that she must have had some good idea.

In this world, as long as you have a chariot, you will install a fax device, and there will be almost no such thing as getting lost, when you teleport, as long as there is nothing to stop it, you can immediately get out of the predicament and teleport back to a safe town, of course, Ma Tao can also do this, use fax to return to the town at the moment when the drinking water runs out, but he doesn't want to waste his efforts like this, it will mean that he needs to suffer a crime, Gao Han has a way, that is naturally the best.

"I wonder if you've ever heard of air fetching water?"

Gao Han's incomparably sexy eyes blinked and asked.

"Air for water?"

Ma Tao shook his head.

"Because of the sandification of the Gobi Desert, at night, the temperature difference here should be not small, and the water molecules will be hidden in the air, and what we need to do is to condense the water molecules."

Gao Han squatted down directly, and then pulled out a piece of grass under his feet with his hands, and he could see that the bottom of the grass roots was still very wet and black-brown, so he said, "Of course, under the soil of this grass, there will be more water molecules."

"And then?"

Ma Tao didn't quite understand what she was trying to say, but Xiao Jinzi seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly looked at Sister Han.

"Dig a pit and use a piece of waterproof material, I think, in one night, we can get at least 500 ml of usable water, which is enough for emergency relief"

Gao Han replied.

"Waterproof Material ???"

Ma Tao Zou frowned and thought about this word, Gao Han's method sounds very simple, but the most difficult thing is this waterproof material, it needs to be waterproof and not leaky, and it needs to be big enough, where can I find this thing?

"Really?"

Gao Han stood up slowly, and looked at Su Lanxi and An Ruo, who were setting up a tent not far away, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Tents"

Little Gold gave the answer in one word.

The fabric of the tent couldn't be better, it has to be waterproof, the area is large enough, even the shape is funnel-shaped, it is definitely the perfect waterproof material, water intake utensils?

"I still have a new tent in my car"

Ma Tao suddenly understood, and hurriedly added.

"Okay, I've figured out the solution, I've said the idea, and the rest is your business."

As he spoke, Gao Han reached out and patted Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi on the shoulder, brushing off the unnecessary dust for them, and then smiled and said, "Come on."

"Yes, it looks like it's a car for the two of us today."

Because to get water, of course, the more the better, both tents must be used, which means that the two chariots have to distinguish between men and women, Ma Tao has no choice, and has to squeeze the jeep with Xiao Jinzi, which is also no way, after all, one more Gao Han, troublesome.

The so-called air water intake is the physical process of absorbing and collecting water molecules from the air through the medium, and then condensing the water molecules through the medium, and finally forming liquid drinking water, because there is no new material generated, and the air water intake does not belong to the chemical process.

Drawing water from the air sounds like a simple task, but it is quite difficult to get it up, just like drilling wood to make fire, even if you know the principles and tools, it is not an easy task.

Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi need to make a pit large and deep enough, then fix the tent inside, put clean stones without dust (such stones are difficult to find), never go into a little sand, and finally close the tent tightly and bury it with earth.

It took two or three hours to make these two things to get water, and it wasn't until it was dark that dinner was over, and the final result would not be known until tomorrow, Ma Tao had already decided that if this method didn't work, then he could only choose to use the fax device and return directly to Seoul, Otto didn't plan to go, such a chaotic place, in the encounter with something else, the gain outweighed the loss.

Once you go back, you have to be well prepared to come back, and this time it was a mistake caused by a lack of prior preparation.

At night, the temperature drops dramatically, and compared to the heat of the day, the temperature at night makes people feel slightly cool.

The first class is guarded by the inexperienced An Ruo and Xiao Jinzi, and the reason for arranging two people is mainly to let Xiao Jinzi guide her experience and some fighting skills, but An Ruo's character is destined that she will not be an excellent fighter, whether it is physical strength, intelligence, or learning ability, she is not favored by Gao Han, only to see her development direction in the future.

Because Xiao Jinzi and An Ruo are two people, in order to maintain fairness, their shift is one hour longer than others, and then the next shift is Su Lanxi's own vigil.

She was the first to follow Ma Tao through all the battles, and the speed of her growth is obvious to everyone, don't look at her usually she is still a small jasper and harmless to people and animals, but when she really starts, she will not show mercy, Su Lanxi, who once survived in death, is already an excellent hunter, which is also an important reason why Ma Tao can rest assured that she is keeping vigil alone.

After Su Lanxi, Gao Han, needless to say, this sexy royal sister, Ma Tao believes that she will not die if she dies, for her, it is a hundred reassurances, and then it is Ma Tao, and it is also the last shift, until dawn.

When Ma Tao, who was sleeping in the jeep, was woken up by the vibration of the communication watch, Xiao Jinzi was already sleeping soundly in the co-pilot's seat, as if he had dreamed of something, and he let out a smirk from time to time.

"Cut, this silly boy"

Ma Tao moved his somewhat stiff arms, looked at the time, it was about three o'clock in the morning, and the time he set was five minutes in advance, he was used to this, from the day Ma Tao joined the work, he was used to advancing the time for everything that needed to be timed, so as to leave enough time for himself.

Gently opening the car door, the co-pilot's little gold pursed his lips in his sleep, turned over, changed to a more comfortable position and fell asleep.

Ma Tao, who got out of the jeep, was blown by the cold wind in the night and couldn't help but shiver.

Closing the car door, Ma Tao checked the semi-automatic rifle in his hand, and after looking at the bullet in the chamber to confirm that there was no problem, Ma Tao went to find Sister Han.

01 On the side of the tank tank, Gao Han, who was wearing a black training uniform and wearing long boots, hid himself perfectly in the night, as if meditating, sitting there with his eyes closed and meditating, as soon as Ma Tao approached, Sister Han opened her eyes.

"Are you practicing?"

Ma Tao looked at it and asked curiously.

"Qigong (Qigong) is a traditional method of health care, health preservation, and dispelling diseases, which is known as "Dan Dao" in ancient times, with the adjustment of breathing, the adjustment of physical activity and the adjustment of consciousness (pranayama, body, and heart) as a means to strengthen the body, prevent and cure diseases, prolong life and develop potential."

Sister Han glanced at him, stood up from the ground and replied.

"I remember, someone seems to have promised me to teach me qigong"

Ma Tao doesn't know anything about qigong, but he really experienced it when he was massaged by a qigong master to relieve numbness.

"Do you really want to learn?"

Hearing Ma Tao talk about this again, Gao Han remembered the embarrassment last time, thinking that Ma Tao was laughing at himself again, but seeing Ma Tao's serious appearance, he frowned slightly and asked.

Ma Tao didn't speak, but nodded solemnly.

"Very tired"

After thinking about it, Gao Han said again.

"Are you tired of living?"

Ma Tao asked rhetorically.

Gao Han stopped squeaking.

Indeed, in such an era, it is not easy to live, and it is even more difficult to live well, but often a person who lives well, he must have suffered unimaginable hardships from ordinary people in this life, (that... The kind of reincarnation is not counted), living so hard, just to make yourself live better, it's like a dead cycle, in order to live better, so live harder.

"If you want to learn qigong, you must understand what qigong is, if you look at the psychophysiological process of qigong, you can define qigong as: mainly through the use of autosuggestion as the core means, to promote consciousness into a state of self-hypnosis, through the psychological-physiological-morphological self-regulation mechanism to adjust the mind-body balance, to achieve the purpose of fitness and treatment of self-exercise methods, I say you can understand?"

Facing Ma Tao's gaze, Gao Han felt that this kid should be serious, so he answered seriously.

Ma Tao knew that this cheap master had already begun to teach himself, so he immediately nodded and replied, "Listen, it's a bit similar to the ascetic in the book."

Gao Han showed a smile and continued, "It's almost, it's just not that miserable, but the physical and psychological damage will definitely not be small."

"It's okay, I can handle it"

Ma Tao said with a firm gaze.

"Well, sit here like I did, calm yourself down, and use your ears to perceive things around you, but be careful, don't fall asleep."

Gao Han spoke, sat on the ground again, and asked Ma Tao to sit on the ground according to her appearance.

"What's the use of that?"

Ma Tao asked after sitting down.

"Sharpening your heart, honing your heart, this is the first step to self-hypnosis"

Gao Han explained.

"Oh, as long as you don't sleep?"

Ma Tao nodded, closed his eyes and asked.

"No, you still have to stay still"

Gao Han opened his eyes and looked at Ma Tao, who looked like a decent person beside him, and saw that he was very serious, and said, "You insist here, don't worry, you won't be able to sit still for a while, I'll go first."

After saying that, Gao Han really left.

I can't sit still? Underestimate people! Ma Tao snorted coldly in his heart, he didn't think it was difficult to sit like this.

I don't know how long it took, Ma Tao finally realized why Sister Han couldn't sit still.

First of all, it is the soreness and numbness of the body due to long-term immobility, followed by the constant drowsiness, and then the inexplicable irritability in the heart, which is popular, and it is impossible to sit still.........

I don't believe it yet...

Gritting his teeth, Ma Tao endured the irritability in his heart and continued to meditate, until he heard Su Lanxi's movement in his ears Ma Tao opened his eyes.

"What are you doing?"

The sky was already slightly bright, Su Lanxi climbed out of the chariot and planned to boil some hot water and get some food for everyone, and when he came out, he saw Ma Tao who was like a sculpture, and asked with a strange face.

Ma Tao opened his eyes and knew that it was dawn, and looked at Su Lanxi with sleepy eyes, revealing a tired smile.

"I..."

Ma Tao wanted to stand up, as soon as his body moved, he didn't know that his body seemed to be unconscious, and with this movement, the whole person fell to the side, which frightened Su Lanxi and hurriedly went to help Ma Tao.

"It's okay... This leg is numb..."

Ma Tao, who was helped up by Su Lanxi, smiled awkwardly.

"You go and rest for a while, I'll take care of you"

Su Lanxi felt distressed when he looked like this, and couldn't help but help Ma Tao to the side of the jeep, and let Ma Tao get into the car with a push.

Afraid of disturbing the little gold who was sleeping soundly, Ma Tao didn't struggle too much, mainly because his limbs were still uncomfortable, just like that, Ma Tao became a deserter for the first time and slept for half an hour.

God you lived up to their expectations, and in the early morning of the second day, when the buried water bags were sorted out, the two tents had more than 1.5 liters of water in reserve, and it was very clean.

The extra water, with the original reserves, is enough to maintain daily life, save a little, just use it for drinking, and it can definitely support it.

Next, in order not to waste this trip, Ma Tao decided to cancel the extravagant behavior of drinking porridge, and the diet after that was steamed buns and dried meat, never wasting a drop of water.

As for the face, there is no need to wash it until you find a water source.

So, five people with smudges drove two chariots and continued to set off.

Further north, the green steppes have completely disappeared, replaced by the endless Gobi Desert.

Outside the car window is the boundless Gobi Desert, the blue sky and white clouds disappear at some point, replaced by a dim canopy that slowly opens, all the way to the horizon, it really makes people wonder if this is a "mirage": life dies under the gravel...

The high temperature makes the whole world shake, and the heat wave hits people everywhere, as if the burning flame makes people feel very hot, sweating profusely in an instant, and the heat spares the body, giving people the feeling of being in a sauna. Especially the people in the chariot are simply suffering.

Boom!

Rumble! Rumble!

Two explosions, the body of the 01 tank and the 02 jeep were hit at the same time, and everyone in the car was shaken by the reverse thrust generated by the explosion, and everyone woke up in an instant.

"Warning, monster attack, loss of armor piece 38"

The female electronic voice of Unit 01C reported the loss.

"Something! How fierce! ”

Bombed off nearly 40 pieces of armor of the 01 tank at once, Ma Tao has only a handful of such things, how can he not be surprised.

"I was knocked out more than 50"

On the other hand, the little gold in the jeep was even more surprised, because the loss reported by his C unit was as high as 59.

The high-speed car, Noah's mechanical monster, with the body of a rubber-tired armored car, also has the rotating turret of a tank car, this is an alien combination, its main gun is huge, the destructive power is amazing, please be careful.

The Eurasian monster in front of you is two things similar to armored vehicles, with three wheels on each side, not moving slowly, with earthy yellow camouflage spray paint, but, this paint color is already old, it seems, there are not many armor pieces, and it looks like a broken car with a bad appearance, but this attack power is really a little amazing.

Seeing that the oval turrets of the two high-speed cars rotated and aimed at them again, Ma Tao didn't have time to care whether the two women in the car sat down or not, and rushed out with one acceleration.

As soon as the 01 tank rushed out, the position he was in before was bombed into a big crater, and for a while, the sky was full of smoke and dust.

Two seconds later, the 01 tank truck, which had been blown up in dust, snorted and rushed out of the smoke and dust.

How can two high-speed cars hit me! Do you think I'm a bully, Ma Tao in the chariot was also blasted out of anger, and the temperature in the car was already frustrating, and he already needed to vent at this moment.

Come and don't be rude.

The C device of the 01 tank had locked onto an earthy yellow high-speed vehicle, and Ma Tao immediately opened fire.

As the flames rose, a fiery red mushroom cloud burst open.

The power of the 95 gun was still not bad, and it did not disappoint Ma Tao, and one shot hit the position of the front battery of the high-speed car 1, and it was immediately disintegrated, and the remaining half of the wreckage was emitting black smoke, and there was no possibility of any danger.

Another high-speed car 2 doesn't know if it has a certain intelligence system, so it turned around and wanted to go.

"Little Gold, keep him!"

Ma Tao saw this, where can I do it, I will run after the fight, how can there be such a reason in the world, you gave me a shot, I must return you a shot, and if there is a revenge, I must report it on the spot.

"I ......"

There was a sound of little gold in the watch.

"What am I, stop it for me, do you hear!"

Ma Tao was already angry, he didn't understand how Xiao Jinzi changed ink at this time, but the next moment, Ma Tao was completely stunned, only to see Xiao Jinzi's jeep spinning violently in place, and then, he actually hit the high-speed car that was going to turn around and leave, yes, it just hit it!!
