We all got our heads out of the carriage and looked ahead.

In addition to the boundless yellow sand around him, in the far ahead, a different scenery finally appeared.

What appeared in front of us at this moment was a small mountain peak hidden under the blue sky, the whole mountain was black, and only the peak was covered with a layer of white snowflakes.

It may be that the distance is too far away, and the whole mountain seems very blurry, and if you don't look carefully, you really can't see it clearly.

Big Blue replied, "It should be there." ”

We unfolded the map and laid it out on a rattan table to look at it.

It is a vast desert, uninhabited for tens of thousands of miles, and the record of it on the map is very limited. According to the marks on the map, there are no other mountains in the east except for this snow-capped peak called Shuangjie Ridge, and it is almost certain that this is Shuangjie Ridge.

Green stared at the map for a long time, then finally nodded hesitantly, and confirmed, "Well, that's right, this is it." ”

"I can feel a vigorous breath of life ahead, Shuangjie Ridge is a snowy peak, and the land at the foot of the mountain can often be irrigated by snow water, so there is an oasis there, and I think this breath of life comes from there."

Before Green's words fell, Xiao Nan said excitedly on the side: "When you get over there, won't you be able to stop eating insects?" ”

This is also my question, but after Xiao Nan said this, I suddenly remembered one thing: the two of us have been eating bugs for a whole month.

In the first few days, there was still some grain in the car, and Niu Kelian would prepare some sun-dried mushrooms on the way to cook soup, which was half a sack, and Xiao Nan and I ate it all in five days.

For the rest of the day, we were both hungry for two days......

Then I started to try to eat ant meat, although I refused to eat it at first, but in the end I thought it was chicken, and after eating it a few times, it was sour and sweet, and I felt that the taste was not bad, and the texture was okay, so I reluctantly accepted this strange 'delicacy'.

After a few more days, the honey ran out, and we ate all the ant meat that had been marinated in honey, so that day, for the first time, we ate ant meat that had not been treated with honey...... Hey, that's an unpalatable, it's amazing, it's sour and bitter, and at first I suspected that I had eaten fake ant meat.

The ant meat in the next few times was really hard to swallow, so I simply grabbed the slugs with Niu Kelian, I couldn't figure it out at all, what did I think at the time, I actually grabbed slugs with others to eat? Looking back now, I always feel like I had a hole in my head at that time.

Later, even the slugs were gone, so we set our sights on the whole tree dragon meat in the carriage.

Well, compared to slugs, compared to ant meat, tree dragon meat is more in line with human taste, it tastes like beef, not to mention the chewiness, even the taste is similar. It is said that lizards are the offspring of dinosaurs, and lizards that are more than two meters long may be understood as crocodile meat for the time being, right? It's not that hard to accept when you think about it.

I felt that if I had the opportunity to go back to the original world, I could blow to someone else for a year, I had eaten a distant relative of dinosaurs.

However, the comfortable days of eating 'dinosaurs' didn't pass for a few days, and Xiao Nan and I stopped talking.

The reason is that our eldest lady found us and said to the two of us with a smile: "Let me tell you, you have eaten five catties of dragon meat in the past two days, and remember to give money and 20 gold coins when you return to Mengdu." ”

So from that day on, we went back to the days of eating ant meat.

When I thought that I had digested a lot of ant meat in my stomach in the past few days, a feeling of nausea suddenly hit my whole body, and a cold breath came out from the pores of my body in all directions, and goosebumps rose all over my body.

By the way, we also encountered a huge desert giant scorpion on the way, and the scorpion meat is more than ant meat...... Half a catty and eight taels, the same bitterness, the same sour chirping taste, but we still ate with relish. If nothing else, compared to ant meat, scorpion meat has a different flavor.

Perhaps with our preconceived thoughts, we consciously think that ant meat is already the most unpalatable thing, so the resistance to scorpion meat is not so strong.

Alas, I can only say one thing about this: I am a citizen of the Celestial Empire in vain! I don't dare to eat this, and I don't dare to eat that...... I'm sorry I've embarrassed everyone!

But no matter what, it's true that the thought of being about to escape makes everyone's mood feel a lot lighter.

Xiao Nan was the first to mention what to eat, and then everyone began to talk about it.

In fact, it's not just the two of us, other people can't stand this kind of life for a long time, and unlike the two of us, other people don't mind eating ant meat, they mind eating ant meat that has not been marinated in honey.

Alas, people who are not in the same world have a completely different way of thinking.

However, our cheerful chatting atmosphere did not last long, and was once again enveloped by a boundless silence.

No matter how interesting the topic is, if you talk about it a lot, you will always finish it.

Nearly three hours have passed since the peak was first discovered, but the Shuangjie Ridge is still out of reach.

As the saying goes, looking at the mountains and running dead horses is what we are in now.

Little Blue patted his chest and said, "Don't be so dull, everyone...... Don't worry, I know the garrison commander of the Ice and Fire Magic Tower, we used to serve together in the King's Guard Regiment of the King's Army, and we both belonged to the same ten-person team, he is my iron buddy, and when I get over there, good wine and good food are absolutely indispensable! ”

Green was shocked, "You've been in the Golden Armor Army before?" ”

Little Blue nodded in response: "Yes, I used to be in the King's Army, the King's Guard Regiment Imperial Guard Bow Barracks. ”

Green suddenly said: "No wonder your archery skills are so superb, it turns out that you have worked as an errand in the Golden Armor Army." ”

After a pause, Green shook his head again: "No, the Golden Armor Army is a legion with many masters, how could you go to that ghost place in Rock City to be a silver armor army with no future?" ”

Xiao Blue was silent for a while, waved his hand indifferently, and said, "Hey, it's nothing, it's just that I made a little mistake before and was rushed to serve in the Silver Armor Army." ”

Xiao Blue's expression was a little gloomy, and he smiled bitterly: "My service time is almost over, and this time with this big change, I can almost retire." When I return to Mengdu, I will be a mercenary, and I will be at ease. ”

I glanced thoughtfully at Little Blue, and it seemed that this joke still seemed to be a man with a story. Listening to the conversation between the two, my curiosity was aroused by them, but looking at the appearance of Little Blue, it seemed that he was reluctant to talk about this topic.

The dreary atmosphere has been permeating the carriage for a long time.

I don't know how long it took, but the ants finally stopped, and then Niu Kelian put his head into the carriage and said, "We have arrived." ”
