What to do? Could it be that their scientific expedition is over?

Now it's neither advancing nor retreating, and there is still a day's journey from the destination, but it's like this, how can I come back?

Some people suggested going back to regroup, others said to wait and see if the camels would come back.

"Guide, what do you think we should do now?" Senior Zhou Qiang asked him.

"Keep walking, if you want to go to the center of the Imperial City, otherwise you will only be in three months, and the weather will not be suitable for you to enter the desert again."

"But there is no water, how can we come back......

Cheng Luo stood up and said: "We have come here, we will miss a long time when we go back to rectify and come back, the guide is right, in a few days, it will be a duststorm, we may not be able to come here again, now going back is not a matter of coming again, it is equivalent to giving up this scientific expedition." But without water, we can't hold on. However, I am really unwilling to give up now. ”

The discussion of the crowd stopped, and there were only two options: give up or move forward. It's just that both options are difficult.

"Guide, is there any way to get water again?" Professor Wu asked Que Qiu.

Que Qiu nodded and said, "If you survive today, to the place you mentioned, about two kilometers over there, there is a puddle, which will only come out of the water in the middle of the night, or, drink camel blood." ”

"It's the most famous guide, and I know so much." Another teacher complimented. This money is not in vain!

"Then, bear with me today, I have found a small bottle of water in my backpack now, divide it, go over there, and the guide will take us to find water." Professor Wu said with a final word.

When everyone heard Professor Wu say this, they had no other objections, maybe those camels could come back?

Because there were four camels missing, there were a few people and two people who switched to riding a camel, and the speed of the team slowed down, and everyone no longer had the excitement of arriving in the desert for the first time, until noon, everyone was gray-faced, chapped lips, the sun was fierce, and they could not expose their bodies, and they were easy to get sunburned, so they could only wrap their coats and wear sand-proof glasses.

"Thirsty...... I'm so thirsty. "There was a teacher lying on the back of a camel, weak and weak, and the small half bottle of water was only divided by one person.

Professor Wu, who was old in front, tilted his body and fell off the back of the camel.

Que Qiu, who was next to him, immediately jumped down to check if Professor Wu had any problems.

Professor Wu seems to have some symptoms of heat stroke, and because of the constant sweating of the sun, he urgently needs to rehydrate, he is older than the people in the body, and the symptoms of dehydration first show up from his body.

The scorching sun was in the sky, scorching everyone on this desert, and the sand under him could scald eggs, Cheng Luo hurriedly took the insulated sleeping mat in the tent and spread it on the ground, and then built a small pergola with a cloth covered with supplies and a parasol with the seniors to shield Professor Wu from the sun.

"The professor has to drink water." Cheng Luo said.

But now I can't find a drop of water, what should I do?

Que Qiu pulled out the dagger from behind his waist and walked towards the camel team, "There is no way, I can only drink camel blood." "He wouldn't do it as a last resort. Every camel is a valuable asset and a guarantee for them to get out of the desert. For every camel missing, they are more dangerous.
