Chapter 172: Little Kids

"I didn't expect there to be such a place in this desert...... It's really refreshing. ”

A girl covered in patches looked at the sea in front of her and sighed loudly.

Next to her was a typical sandy beach, surrounded by many coconut palms, which were so fruitful that they almost fell off.

There were also many shells washed up on the edge of the beach, and the girl picked one up with her bare feet and stepping on the water.

She lifted the shell into the sunlight, and the shell shimmered with its own light through the sunlight, and the girl smiled brighter than the sun.

Da-da-da-da.

The sound of feet stepping on wet sand.

Beaming, she ran to a boy who was with her on the beach.

"Hey! Look, Os, this shell is so beautiful! I guess I can sell it for a lot of money! ”

The boy, named Os, recovered from his shock, holding a random map in his hand, and he muttered to himself.

"So the map is real."

Feeling ignored, the girl pouted, and shoved the shell directly into Oss's face.

The boy immediately closed his left eye.

"What are you doing! Philus! ”

Os howled, and the girl named Philus pressed the shell to Os's face.

Philus grinned.

"It's not that you guys won't listen to me!"

Oss hurriedly pulled away the palm of Philus' hand that was holding the shell in his face.

Oss looked at the grinning Philus in front of him with some helplessness, he sighed, and shook his head again.

"Philus, when will you not be so naΓ―ve?"

Visibly annoyed, the girl tucked the shells into her trouser pockets, turned around and crossed her arms and snorted.

All of a sudden, Oss was speechless.

After doing these actions, Philus also quietly glanced at Os.

When she realized that Oss was indeed looking at her, she quickly withdrew her eyes and snorted again.

Looking at Philus's appearance, Oss also shook the map in his hand helplessly.

"If it weren't for this, I'm afraid we would have died of thirst in the desert, but I really didn't expect that there would be a green field on this side of the mountain."

"That's because Oss doesn't have a dream!"

Philus jumped over and hugged Os.

Oss blushed and quickly shook Philus away.

"Hey!"

"Hee-hee-hee! Shy! ”

Philus put his slender fingers to his mouth and laughed.

Annoyed, Oss chased after Philus and fought.

"You bastard!"

"I can't beat it! Can't hit! Hee-hee-hee! ”

The two laughed and played on the beach, and after a bit of frenzy, they lay on the beach together, drinking coconut water and panting.

Broken coconut shells everywhere.

"It's so full, Os."

"Hmm."

The two lay on the beach and chatted.

Philus: "Os, why can't we go to the other side of the land?" ”

"Fool, there's a death dividing line in the middle of this island, and there can be quite a few beasts there."

Philus's bright eyes looked at the swaying coconut leaves, a little tired.

"Then why can't you take a boat? Since there are beasts on land, why don't we take the waterway? ”

Philus asked.

Oss answered Philus's question lightly.

"There are more beasts on the sea, all of them are fierce sea kings, this island is divided in half by a windless belt, and we have half a circle of mountains blocking the clouds, so it is so dry."

Philus crawled up to Oss, tilted his head and laughed.

"Wow, Oss knows a lot."

Oss pursed his lips and flipped to the side with his map, no longer looking at Philus.

"You know too little!"

Philus looked up behind Oss, and on the back of the beach, there was a long circle of mountains stretching below the horizon.

From left to right, you can see the mountain as far as the eye can see.

These mountains block the clouds of half of the island's people, and behind them lies the endless desert.

And the two of them climbed over this mountain to come to this paradise.

No one could have imagined that there would be a beach close to the sea, which is home to the most precious water resources on the island, and not only that.

There are even priceless treasures!

Tree!

Oss is already planning how to dig up the coconut trees into the interior.

But it's better to think about it.

Being able to drink water to your heart's content is already a luxury.

Philus's original face had become a little rosy because of the coconut water.

Oss held the map and happily chilled under the coconut trees.

It turns out that it is so refreshing outside the mountain, and it is very dangerous for ignorant adults to be here.

Philus paddled up and down the sand, rubbing a large expanse of sand.

"Swim in the sand, hee-hee."

Philus swam around playfully.

Originally, the two planned that if they crossed the mountain and was still a desert, then the two would dig a pit for each other and bury themselves in the sand.

Then die quietly thirsty in the desert, without causing trouble to people.

But fortunately, now that they found a beach, the two of them didn't have to die of thirst.

On this island, the city where Philus and Oss lived was so deprived that the two children lived in the city.

But since the new city lord announced the new decree, Philus has fewer and fewer companions around him, and the handfuls of fresh water that were supposed to be provided to the children for free have disappeared.

The two of them were frightened, so they turned away from the city and ran towards the outermost part of the desert island, which was surrounded by mountains and turned the inner island into a big stuffy furnace.

Philus had heard that on the other side of the island was an empty and fertile green area on which countless delicious produce could be grown.

But how is that possible?

Obviously, this island only has desert.

The two of them had almost rested, and the sky had gradually darkened, and they should consider going back to the city.

The two of them were lucky, and the first time they walked on the desert, they encountered the wreckage of the caravan, which had a lot of water and food, and they took only a little with them, and continued to move towards the outskirts of the island.

I walked for five full years to the side of the mountain, and it took me two more hours to climb the mountain before I came to this beach.

Their stomachs were rumbling, they didn't eat much solid food, and although there was a lot of water, there was very little sugar.

Philus looked at the sea level, the first time she had seen it in the country since she was born.

All of a sudden!

She noticed that a wooden barrel was slowly drifting in with the ocean current.

"Hey! Ox! Look over there! ”

Philus pointed to sea level.

Oss, who was building a shelter, was stunned for a moment, and also looked at the sea level.

There's a floating barrel on it......
