Chapter Eighty-Five: Ascension Stage

People are really more angry than people, one second the mercenaries feel very happy lying in the sand, but the next second they feel that they are simply miserable.

The culprit of all this is, of course, Zhao Xiaopang and the three of them who are fighting the landlord, in fact, it is nothing to fight the landlord, the key is to eat melon seeds and drink juice while fighting the landlord.

Compared with the three of them, the mercenaries instantly felt very sad, everyone is human, why do they live so chic, but they live like a mud pig?

"What's the matter, I'll see if he can continue in two days."

"That's it, you see, that fat man with fine skin and tender meat will be dried into a roast pig sooner or later."

"I deserve to die, I really think I'm here for a tour."

Mercenaries, you say a word to me, the words are full of a strong sourness, there is no way and I don't dare to provoke others at will, I can only babble a few words. Anyone can see that the head of the regiment intends to win over these three people, and now they will cause trouble in the past unless they are full.

After the mercenaries chattered softly, they didn't have anything to do, and they all rested on their own, and Zhao Xiaopang and the three of them didn't play for long before the one-eyed dragon went back to the tent to rest.

Night also fell quietly, and the night of the 'Sea of Death' was unusually quiet, not even the sound of the wind, the sound of insects, or anything like that, it was strangely quiet.

However, the scenery of the 'Sea of Death' at night is not bad, the stars in the night sky are bright, and the Milky Way stars above the sky are extremely clear, Zhao Xiaopang lay down in the sand, put his hands behind his head, and looked up at the bright night sky. Rui Wen sat lightly to the side.

He had forgotten the last time he had seen the night sky, ten or five? He didn't remember, anyway, it was too difficult to find a pure sky on Earth today, maybe you can still see such a scene in the countryside, but it seems that everyone likes neon lights rather than starry sky.

"Do you know what that is?"

Zhao Xiaopang raised his hand and pointed to a star in the starry sky

"Stars?"

"In my hometown, this star is called Vega."

"Do the stars have a story?"

"It's so smart, it's not only a story, it's a great story. Let me tell you about it. ”

"Good"

"Legend has it that there are not only people in the world, but also immortals, they live in the sky, all of them are powerful, boundless in the world, omnipotent in the world, one day seven fairies came to the mortal world............"

Zhao Xiaopang told Rui Wen the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and Rui Wen listened quietly on the side, sometimes frowning, sometimes chuckling, and her beautiful eyes were bent into a crescent moon.

"In this way, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl were separated by the Queen Mother, and they could only meet on the Magpie Bridge on the day of Qixi every year."

This story is not long, and it is very easy to tell, after all, Zhao Xiaopang also listens to the story.

"Very good story"

After listening to the story, Rui Wen was in a very good mood, such a poignant love story, even she listened to it with relish. Her life is particularly monotonous, when she was young, in order to be able to eat, she would compete with wild dogs for food, and when she grew up, she began to join the army and fight for meritorious service, there is only blood and war in life, either you die or I die, she has heard such a story for the first time, and she can't help but yearn for it.

"I think this is a story of a hooligan who went to the pinnacle of his life to marry Bai Fumei, do you think, isn't the Cowherd just a hooligan who stole the clothes of other people's weaver girls to soak other people's little girls? So if you want to counterattack this year, first of all, you have to be not afraid of death, and you must be shameless. As long as the final goal is achieved, no matter how dirty things are, they will become beautiful talks. ”

"Giggle...... You're worse than that cowherd. ”

Rui Wen smiled, laughing happily, naturally, and without hiding the joy in her heart. No matter what she does, she never hides it, she doesn't have the shy posture of a little daughter, she doesn't have the slightest artificiality.

"You smile so beautifully, you should smile more"

Rui Wen's face turned red and she stopped laughing.

"I'll go back to the tent first, and you can rest early"

Rui Wen was naturally happy with Zhao Xiaopang's praise, but she was also a little embarrassed, and got up and slipped away after finishing speaking.

"I've never watched a Korean drama, and my face is thin."

After Rui Wen left, Zhao Xiaopang couldn't stay any longer, so she had nothing to do in the sand, so she went back to the tent to sleep.

Soon the night passed, and nothing happened during the night, and the next morning, before the sun came out, the party was on the road again.

As yesterday, the team continued to march on foot, not fast or slow into the 'Sea of Death'

The 'Sea of Death' lives up to its name, there is nothing but sand, no plants and no living things, and the scenery is the same after two days of travel, and there is the slightest change in the purchase.

But at noon three days later, another team appeared, about a dozen people, but all of them were already corpses, none of them were alive, all of them were dead, there were no obvious wounds on the corpses, and the clothes and salutes were very complete, so these people should be dying of thirst, after all, it is very easy to get lost in the 'Sea of Death', and once they are lost, it is difficult to get out again.

The team didn't stop there, and continued to move on, and it was clear that the mercenaries were used to this kind of thing.

As the team goes deeper, the number of dead bodies begins to increase, and there are more and more, there is no wind here, so the corpses will not be covered by the yellow sand, they are exposed to the air, due to the high temperature, the corpses will quickly dehydrate and become dry corpses, and will not rot, there are no beasts and insects here, the corpses will basically be preserved very completely, I don't know how many people have died in this barren land for thousands of years, and how many corpses will be left?

No one knows how many there are, but it is definitely a terrifying number, and in five days, there are no less than a thousand corpses seen along the way, and the "Sea of Death" interprets the "two words of death" very thoroughly.

When the procession reached the sixth day, Sivir finally ordered the men to begin riding on their camels, by which time they were exhausted, and they were finally able to travel on camels for the last stretch.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Zhao Xiaopang's half-dime, from beginning to end, the three of them are eating, drinking, having fun, sleeping well, and have been riding camels forward, their camels are not only not tired but more and more energetic, no one knows that Zhao Xiaopang will feed their camels fruits and vegetables.

Finally, on the afternoon of the seventh day, the procession stopped.

"It's just stopped here, the piles are tied to the camels, and everything that is not needed is left here. ..........”

Sivir gave a barrage of orders

The mercenaries laid down most of their salutes, some household items were left in place, and the camels were tied up in piles.

Ten minutes later

"Let's go!"

The team traveled lightly, and the mercenaries, who were originally mentally exhausted, also cheered up.

Because the destination of this trip has finally arrived!

The deepest part of the "Sea of Death" is also the most special.

I saw that there was a huge crater not far from everyone, about a thousand feet wide, as huge as a small basin, and this huge pit was very abrupt in the flat 'Sea of Death'.

It is the only place in the Sea of the Dead that bears a name.
