Chapter 22: Casting lots

If you don't leave, you have to go, the water is gone, and the ending of staying is self-evident!

Luckily, I watched the water level drop and filled all the containers that could be used to store water, but how long could this last.

Alas......

"What should I do?" Tao Wufu looked at Yao Changsheng anxiously and said, "Young Master Yao! ”

"I can only hit the road here, and I will be lucky." Yao Changsheng smiled bitterly and said, "It's our luck that we bumped into it, and we couldn't bump into ......."

"I can't bump into it, and we're not lonely on Huangquan Road!" Tao Fifteen looked at them calmly and said, his eyes were dim and deadly.

In the past month since I escaped from the famine, I have experienced everything, from panic at first, to gradual numbness, and now I am very calm and accept the arrangement of fate.

"Then let's leave early tomorrow morning." Yao Changsheng looked at them with a soft face and said, "I won't explore the road today, save my strength." ”

"Then I'll prepare, prepare." Tao Fifteen looked at them calmly and said, "Take everything you can with you." ”

Tao 15 took his son and went around the forest again, preparing some bark and dry firewood.

It was getting dark, and the bonfire in the temple was lit again.

Yao Changsheng looked at the broken roof with clear eyes, blinking with stars.

For him who has died once, he is also calm, there is nothing to be afraid of!

In this case, there is no other way except for a miracle or the annihilation of humanity.

He didn't want to bite other people's corpses like a beast and come out like in his previous life.

The road ahead is vast, and the Land Temple is exceptionally quiet, only the crackling sound of the bonfire is quiet.

&*&

After turning the day, it was not dawn, and before the sun came out, I set off.

Tao Qini put on Tao Fifteen's newly knitted straw sandals, fortunately she was used to running barefoot, and there were thick calluses on her feet, otherwise she wouldn't be able to carry these straw shoes.

Like Yao Changsheng, Tao Shifu carefully made a large size, which was directly put on the boots, so that it would not pierce his feet with fine skin and tender flesh, and the boots that were protected.

Put on straw sandals and wear a wreath of hay on your head to hide from the scorching sun.

At this time, the departure was not hot, and it was just in a hurry, "Let's decide, will we go in that direction?" Tao Qini looked at them and asked.

The three members of the Tao family looked at Yao Changsheng in unison, "Let's listen to you." ”

Yao Changsheng swallowed his saliva, "Listen, since it's a big luck?" ”

"I understand!" Tao Fifteen's eyes were clear, and he looked at him calmly and said, "Life and death are fateful, and I can't complain about anyone." Looking at him, he asked, "Young Master Yao, where are we going?" ”

"Let's draw lots!" Yao Changsheng found four pebbles of similar size, wrote on them with a burning stick, and looked at Tao Shidao, "You have disrupted their order. The words fell and turned his back.

actually grabbed the lot, Tao Qini saw this, the corners of her mouth twitched, it seemed that there was only that.

In the end, he grabbed the east, "Let's go east." Yao Changsheng clutched the pebbles in his hand tightly with a solemn expression, "Let's go!" "Walking in the direction of the rising sun, I thought carefully about the mountains and rivers in the east of this generation.

"Dong Hao! The purple qi comes from the east, maybe it will go out. Tao fifteen's eyes were bright and optimistic.

Yao Changsheng looked back at him with a complicated look, and pulled out a smile that was more ugly than crying, "I've borrowed your auspicious words." ”

As the sun rises, the temperature gets higher and higher, and the sweat on the body comes out layer after layer, and after drying, it forms salt particles and hangs on the skin, which feels very uncomfortable.

Tao Qini put her hand on her forehead, watching the sun in the sky scorching the earth, and the little water she brought had been drunk.

The weather was too hot, the water was lost too quickly, and before I knew it, I ran out of water.

Tao Qini stood in the shadow under the dry old locust tree, and only then did she feel cool.

"Dad, when are we going to go?" Tao Qini looked at him and asked with a sigh of relief.

"I don't know this, I have to ask Yao Gongzi." Tao 15 stopped the wheelbarrow in his hand and shook the sweat off his face with his hand.

"Ask him?" Tao Qini pinched her waist with both hands and looked at Yao Changsheng and said, "Rest now!" Avoid the hottest part of the day. ”

Without water, they didn't starve, they had to die of thirst.

"It's good!" Yao Changsheng looked at them who were embarrassed and had no choice but to say, in fact, he didn't give much, and the 'wreath' of hay woven on his head shook vigorously.

Tao Qini simply untied the hemp rope on her body and put the newly woven straw mat on the ground, "Sit down and rest for a while!" ”

If you don't rest, you have to rest, and it's the hottest time of the day again, and you can't walk anymore, and your legs are trembling as if they have been filled with lead.

Bang bang...... Sitting on the straw mat, Tao Liuyi looked at the hot Sun Dao, "When will it rain!" ”

"Don't think about it, according to this weather, don't talk about dark clouds, there is not even a single cloud." Yao Changsheng looked at the clear blue sky, without a trace of clouds.

"It's really like Nier said, carry the dragon lord out and roast it on the fire!" Tao Liuyi puffed out his cheeks and looked at God angrily.

"Alright, don't waste your saliva." Tao 15 tugged at his arm and said, "We're not a drop of water." ”

"Ahh Tao Liuyi shouted in frustration, and the person collapsed under the tree trunk, not wanting to move.

"Yao Gongzi." Tao fifteen leaned on the trunk of the tree and looked at him and said, "I think it's better for us to go at night, I can't stand it during the day." ”

"Hmm!" Yao Changsheng closed his eyes and snorted softly, he didn't want to speak now.

Tao Qini has water in this storage capsule, but she also has to have a water source in order to be famous! Otherwise, there is no way to explain it.

Almost over, they set out on their journey again.

With no water, no food, they faltered and walked all night.

After dawn, I looked at the desolation around me and could not see a single piece of green, and my heart became even colder.

"I can't stop, I have to go while it's not too hot." The crutches in Yao Changsheng's hand lit up and looked at them and said sharply.

"Let's go!" Tao Fifteen gritted his teeth and said.

The group staggered and staggered until noon.

"No, I can't walk anymore." Tao Liuyi slammed and sat directly on the ground, lying on the ground again, breathing rapidly, like a thirsty fish thrown on the shore.

Reluctantly unbuttoning the mat and lying on their backs, they never wanted to get up again.

Yao Changsheng leaned against the smooth trunk of the tree, drew a map on the ground, and said in a hoarse voice, "Judging from the map, there should be a river here. ”

Tao Qini's eyes flashed with a gleam, the marching map! "I say big brother......" she said, gesturing to the ground beneath her feet, "it's a drought now, and you're sure the river hasn't dried up." ”

"This ......," Yao Changsheng scratched his head and said, "I just recorded it according to the marks on the map." He muttered to himself, "We are taking the official road, it can't be wrong!" ”
