Of course, the loss of the leader is not enough to burn the eyebrows.

The most important thing is that the camel carrying the drinking water has always been led by the old man Alayi, and now it has disappeared with the old man Alayi.

Other words...... We're out of water!!

The water is cut off in the desert!

Thinking about the current situation, a few of us really couldn't be happier.

"Like...... I saw the old man running from the east. ”

Suddenly, Zhou Jing said weakly: "At that time, when the Black Storm had just caught up with us, he ran directly to the east. ”

To the east, that's the way back to Hami.

This dead old man actually left us and ran away on his own, taking all our water sources with him, and if he hadn't been buried alive in the Black Storm, there would have been enough water to support him to return to Hami alive.

I slammed the ground hard, fuck, we're totally fucked this time!

"Well, this is the end of the matter, it is useless to talk about it!"

Tsing Yi sighed and looked around: "Fortunately, we ran into an oasis by mistake, and it can be regarded as a desperate survival." Let's take a break and check this place first, looking for water and food, we have to survive first. ”

"yes......"

Speaking of this, even Yi Shiting had palpitations on her face: "It's strange that this black storm is coming, there will be such a strong black storm in November, it's really our luck to survive!" ”

Several of us had wry smiles on our faces.

To be honest, I have made all the preparations for entering the Sea of Death this time, such as being trapped in the desert due to water cut-off, such as being killed in battle by Duolun, and even dying in some ancient ruins!!

I'm ready for all this.

The only thing we didn't expect was that we would encounter the most terrible black storm in the desert during the non-wind season.

Could it be that this sea of death is really a place cursed by Allah?

I shook my head, finally calmed down my restless thoughts, rested in place for a while, our group discussed, got up and began to explore this oasis, Yi Shiting and Cao Yuan went to find a water source, one of them is a professor of Peking University who has studied the history and geography of the Western Regions, and the other is a master of feng shui to find a gold school, which is also a pretty good partner together, it is not a problem to find a water source, after all, this is also an oasis, there should be a water source.

What is an Oasis?

The oasis is a heterogeneous ecological landscape that can be relatively stable and maintained in a large desert with obvious microclimate effects on the basis of small-scale but considerable biological communities.

As the saying goes, water is the source of life, and the key to supporting a sizable biome and eventually forming an oasis is the water source!

However, we can't be sure of the exact location at the moment, so we can't determine which water system is the source of water for this oasis. The 36 countries of the Western Regions, don't look at the desolation now, the desertification is very serious, but it was not like this at all more than 2,000 years ago, the Western Han Dynasty and even the later Three Kingdoms period, this side has always been a grassland with abundant water and grass, and the water system is very developed, not only the Peacock River, the Tarim River, these life veins, that is, Lop Nur under our feet was also a big inland lake before, but it is a pity that the vicissitudes of the sea for 2000 years have finally left only the devastation here.

I walked some places in this oasis with a camel, and I and Tsing Yi discovered a very surprising point at the same time - this oasis seems to have never been visited!!

The vegetation here and the like are very well preserved, there is no trace of destruction, we have walked a lot of places, but it has not been to the end, it seems that the area of this oasis is not small, but for the time being there are no traces of any animals, but in the bushes found some berry seedlings, but unfortunately the berries have long been rotten in this season, it is impossible to collect anything, so that we went around a lot of circles and harvested poor very much, just found a desert plant called Cistanche in a bush.

This thing looks similar to a bamboo shoot, Chinese medicine is also called goblin, mainly in Inner Mongolia, but Xinjiang is also produced, but not the main production area, when I found this thing, Lin Qing's eyes lit up at that time, I took a folding sapper shovel from my backpack and dug out a dozen of them, and then took a knife and peeled the skin and threw one to me: "Little brother, eat it, this thing has water in it, you can take it and replenish it!" ”

I nodded, broke a piece and threw it to Zhou Jing, took this cistanche and took a bite, this is the first time I have eaten this kind of thing, and I didn't spit it out when I put it in my mouth - the taste of this thing is really bad, and the taste is like chalk when chewed, and it is definitely not delicious!

However, in this situation, I will be content with some food, and I will not pursue color, fragrance or anything.

A few of us were gnawing on Cistanche while preparing to meet Cao Yuan and the two of them, preparing to make do with tonight first, and then find a way tomorrow.

Who knows, not long after walking along the dark forest, a woman's scream suddenly came from the darkness!!

It's Cao Yuan's voice!

A few of us' faces changed immediately, could it be that Cao Yuan had an accident?

"Let's go! Come and check it out! ”

Tsing Yi said, and then a few of us hurriedly rode on the camel and followed the direction of the sound to catch up, the speed of the camel running up was relatively objective, and after a while we rushed nearly two miles, who knew that at this time we rode the camel as if frightened, even refused to run anymore, how to catch it useless, whining in place endlessly, constantly going around in circles, I rode this head the most, simply nested directly on the ground, feces and urine flowed together, so angry that I almost pulled out a hundred knives and cut it.

"There may be beasts!"

Lin Qing said in a deep voice: "And I'm afraid it's still a large carnivorous beast, and the camel's nose is better than ours, so I smelled the smell that scared them in advance." ”

Right now, it's a tiger, and a few of us have to do it!

In order not to lose time, we simply left our camels and ran forward, through a dense forest, and suddenly heard a low beast roar in front of us, which was very frightening, like thunder, and when we rushed out of the grass, we were also startled.

Outside the dense forest is a vacant land of more than 100 square meters, only some low vegetation, which is a relatively empty place in this oasis, where there are more than a dozen extremely amazing giant beasts besieging Cao Yuan and Yi Shiting, Cao Yuan is a girl who is powerless, and can only be protected by Yi Shiting everywhere, but these giant beasts are extremely ferocious and ferocious, Yi Shiting is a little unstoppable, and there are already several more bloody wounds on her body.

What kind of beast is this?

The length of this thing is close to two or three meters, the head is wide and wide, the fangs are more than ten centimeters, at first glance it is the kind of thing with a very amazing bite force, the limbs are strong and ruthless, look at the physique I am afraid that there must be a weight of about two hundred pounds, there is a mane on the back, it looks similar to a hyena, but the body size is much larger than the hyena, and many details on the body are also different from the hyena, it is certain that they are not hyenas.

It's just that if it's not a hyena, what are they?

I've never heard of a canine that big anyway!

I didn't have time to think about it, human life is important, I pulled out the Baipi knife and rushed forward with a roar, and Lin Qing and a few of them behind me followed.

The first time I fought this monster, I finally realized how fierce this thing was.

Because I was the first to rush forward, the monsters hadn't reacted when I struck, so I took the Baipi Knife and beckoned directly to the head of a monster.

The Hundred Knife is extremely sharp, and I was thinking that this knife would be enough to kill this monster, but it turns out that I thought it was too simple!

When this knife was chopped up, it felt like it was cut on a stone, and the shock made a "sonorous" sound of the knife, and the force of the shock broke open my tiger's mouth at that time, if I didn't hold the knife tightly, I'm afraid that even the knife in my hand was shaken off at this time!!

However, although the monster was not chopped by us, it was also rolled up by the split fur, and the flesh and blood were blurred, and it ran to the side with a scream.

In this way, I can be regarded as alarming these monsters, and all of a sudden several other monsters of Yi Shiting who were besieging all focused their attention on me, and they roared angrily and pounced on me with red eyes, but fortunately, Tsing Yi and Lin Qing had already arrived, protecting me on both sides, and we shot together, instantly injuring a few monsters, and those monsters retreated a little, gathered to a place less than ten meters away and stared at us viciously.

This gave us a chance to breathe, we hurriedly went up to protect Yi Shiting and Cao Yuan, just now Yi Shiting fought more than a dozen monsters without retreating, and she was scarred, it was already the end of the strong crossbow, I am afraid that if we come a few minutes late, the two of them will all be explained, and the battle will definitely be powerless, so they can only protect it and let them breathe a sigh of relief.

", what the hell is this!"

During the confrontation, Zhang Jinya kept gasping, holding a knife and gesturing in front of his chest, I don't know if this can give him some sense of security, the big gold teeth in his mouth are shining, and he grinned: "Who can recognize these ghost things?" ”

"I've got some guesses."

Suddenly, Cao Yuan, who was behind us, said weakly: "It's just ...... I'm not so sure! ”

I was a little speechless, so I said: "Yuanyuan, this is not academic research, just say anything, even if it's speculation, at least we can roughly know what we are facing and how to start!" ”

Cao Yuan nodded slowly after listening to what I said, and said with a somewhat solemn face: "They...... It is very likely that it is a prehistoric giant that scientists believe was extinct 10,000 years ago!! ”
