Xiong Jiandong had read in a textbook a long time ago that under normal circumstances, contact with poisonous insects would cause human skin to become spotty, or instantly feel itchy and feverish.

If you accidentally ingest, you will feel numb and numb due to nerve paralysis caused by poisoning.

Now it seems that these ugly and disgusting tree insects, although they taste sour and smelly, are enough to give him a full meal.

He laughed at himself sadly, maybe it was still particularly rich in protein.

Next, Xiong Jiandong picked the spring shoots of the poplar tree, cut them into minced stuffing with the prince's sword, and kneaded them with the collected tree insects to make something like rice balls. Then choose a slightly larger and watery wet leaf, wrap it in several layers, and then regenerate it over a slight fine fire and slowly smoke it.

Although he had confirmed that the tree insects were not poisonous and not life-threatening, he could not prevent them from not being covered with bacteria.

Even if it is grilled and heated, it will still be half-cooked, but at least it reduces the possibility of physical harm.

Now, not only is it full, but there are also several small rice balls left.

Xiong Jiandong carefully put it away, and then picked a lot of leaf buds and put them in his pocket in a bulging bag, ready to eat on the way.

Seeing that the time had passed six o'clock in the afternoon, and the heat of the sun was no longer so strong, he did not hesitate to start his march into the desert.

The reason why Xiong Jiandong planned to trek in the desert at night was because he thought that during the day, although his vision was relatively clear, the exposure to the sun, the high temperature, and the scorching sandy wind would undoubtedly increase the body's need for water.

And he couldn't find any water along the way.

Walking in the soft desert is never as easy as walking on flat ground, and it takes twice as much energy to overcome the extra resistance under your feet.

Xiong Jiandong always maintained a steady marching speed, and when he was a little tired, he immediately sat down to rest.

He had to do everything he could to avoid sweating and not even urinating.

Because sweating and urination both increase the loss of water from the body.

Just like that, when I saw that Dongfang was slightly white, the step counting function on the watch showed that Xiong Jiandong had walked more than 100,000 steps all night.

Considering that the steps he had taken in the desert were much smaller than usual, only half a meter, he calculated that he must have walked about sixty kilometers that night.

I continued to walk forward for a while, and the sun was gradually rising. The desert began to rise with a noticeable heat.

Not far away, there are piles of sand dunes and low walls that seem to have weathered over the years, stretching out to look like a castle.

In this open desert area, the visual distance is several kilometers, but in fact there will be more than ten kilometers, because the visual distance is only one-third. Moreover, even if it was really the ruins of the abandoned pond castle in ancient times, it would be impossible to find any food and water sources needed, let alone in the direction of another line.

At this time, around Xiong Jiandong, you can see piles of whitish human iliacs, as well as terrifying skulls.

He knew he was in the most dangerous death zone in the desert, and he couldn't go any further.

It is necessary to choose a depression nearby, and build a sand pile as soon as possible, which can be used as a wall of shelter, and can block the direct sunlight on the body when lying down.

Soon, he dug out a semi-circular dune more than half a meter high.

Shrinking behind the sand dunes, Xiong Jiandong began the long wait during the day.

He thought that as long as there was no mistake in the direction of the current foothold, it was estimated that there were at most about fifty kilometers left from the Desert Inn.

The strong will to survive has made Xiong Jiandong leave the dangerous journey of walking through the desert for most of the time. And to return safely from the Desert Inn to the Queen Mother Pool of the Snow Mountain, he will definitely be able to borrow a horse or camel.

Perhaps, He Kuishan and Hou Yiying will still stay in that Taoist temple for the past two days, and they don't care about leaving?

Xiong Jiandong even thought that once he returned to the Queen Mother Pool of the Snow Mountain, he might be able to see the masked woman who rode a jujube red fast horse and carried a mandarin duck sword and accidentally appeared in the desert inn.

She must be the Miaoxin female Taoist on the Jiuwei Mountain.

But the doubt that he has always buried in his heart is: Miao Xin, as a Taoist aunt, is kind-hearted, has always lived in Jiuwei Mountain, and serves the goddess of the female baby in the temple, why did she come to the south of Xinjiang alone, and she actually has a sword direction, and will directly take action against Tuhan and a group of terrorists?

When Xiong Jiandong braved the scorching heat and slept in the desert for a long time until two o'clock in the afternoon, he began to feel a little difficult.

Although he avoided the direct sunlight, he could not escape the steaming heat of the desert.

The remaining rice balls made from tree insects have been eaten, and the young poplar shoots that have been harvested, which can still be chewed at night to replenish a little water juice, are now completely air-dried and chewed in the mouth are tantamount to dead leaves.

He began to notice that the skin on the back of his hand was becoming loose and losing its elasticity. This is because the body is showing signs of dehydration, sending an extremely dangerous and fatal signal.

Lying in this burning desert, I don't know when, Xiong Jiandong suddenly became excited.

For he seemed to be in the wind and sand in the sky, and saw several women walking towards him. They shouted to him in different voices, "Hua Nianping!" ”

The one at the front, the figure is very similar to Lin Si'er, but I feel more like Chen Hongjuan. After all, Lin Si'er's figure is much taller than Chen Hongjuan.

He felt saved! So he got up and went to meet them.

But I found that Lin Si'er was pulled away by a man who suddenly appeared.

The man who took Lin Si'er away, he saw it very clearly, it was her husband Lu Zhichao in the United States.

Moreover, Lu Zhichao not only took Lin Si'er away, but also forcibly took Chen Hongjuan away, and then disappeared into the city together.

Ah, it turned out that Lu Zhichao not only robbed his first love Lin Si'er, but now he also wants to occupy Chen Hongjuan, who has dedicated himself to himself!

Xiong Jiandong was extremely angry, and tried his best to chase after them so that he could rescue the two of them. But half of his body was buried in the sand, unable to move at all.

Suddenly, a woman in a wheelchair appeared and tried to pull him out of the sand.

This is actually Qin Xinru.

But her whole body was covered in bandages, and she couldn't exert any strength. Someone was helping Qin Xinru push the wheelchair. The person who helped her was like Hou Yiying.

However, a gust of sand blew over the sky, wrapping Qin Xinru and Hou Yiying away from him together, and disappeared in an instant.

Underneath the body, there are many round and hard things.

Grab a handful and look at it, it is actually a pile of ancient gold coins in the Western Regions, shining in the sun.

But he didn't seem rare or surprised by this, and only kept a dozen gold coins on his shoulder.

After all, the most important thing at the moment is to escape safely from the desert and reduce the load on your body!

However, Xiong Jiandong reluctantly thought in his heart:

If you can really get out of the desert alive, I wonder if you can find this place again? If you dig out all the gold coins here, maybe you will become a rich man after Taobao!

He stayed up until dark, and his body was still deep in the sand, and it was buried deeper and deeper, until finally no one could save him......

Finally, the moon came out.

The wind and sand blew Xiong Jiandong's upper body exposed, and his vision began to become clear. You can see the moonlit desert night, and the air is exceptionally clear and mirror-clear.

This made him gradually return to normal consciousness.
