Liu Yue remained unconscious, and we put her in the back seat and lay down. Zhou Tong was not at ease and sat in the second row, Sheng Shiyao wanted to pay attention to Liu Yue's movements at any time, so I was arranged to sit in the passenger seat.

It was almost late afternoon when we set off, and it was supposed to be dangerous to drive in the desert at night, but in order to save time, we had to leave immediately. It was also agreed in advance that when it was completely dark, I would stop and rest, and I would not drive at night. Because I'm afraid that my vision is limited, I see the wrong road or something, that's not a joke.

This mutation came too quickly, and it was only the third day from the time we arrived in Jinsha Ancient Town to this moment. Fortunately, the wind seems to have become lighter, and it is no longer yellow sand, otherwise the road would have been more difficult.

The days in the desert are longer, about seven o'clock, and it is completely dark. The light of the small card in front of him flickered, signaling everyone to stop and come down, each with food, and they could eat some boxed lunches that night, and then they had to eat dry food. But Liu Yue is like this, no one is in the mood to eat, so he took two bites of the lunch box and put it in a garbage bag.

Professor Qin's car, several people got down, including Yang Wenhao, he looked at us, because I was sitting in the passenger seat, so it was inevitable to look at him, he nodded at me, as a greeting. It was so chaotic before, no one bothered to speak, and they all prepared to set off. They left the wounded girl in town because there was someone to take care of.

I noticed as if they were coming out of their tents and preparing to set up camp to rest. At this time, the sixth son asked, "Brother Yao, do we need to set up a tent?" Sheng Shiyao glanced at the busy crowd outside the window, and said lightly: "Just sleep in the car, it will get cold at night." ”

Looking back at the back seat, I saw that Zhou Tong's face was very bad, and he looked back at Liu Yue from time to time, and the more he looked at it, the more worried he became, and he couldn't help asking: "Brother Yao, Ah Yue is like this...... Will it be okay? I also looked at Sheng Shiyao, this question was only he could answer.

He didn't look at anyone, his eyes stopped outside the window, and he said lightly: "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven." ”

This was very depressing, but then he said more: "It's just that I have never believed in the mandate of heaven, only in man." "At that time, I only thought he was talking about it to boost morale, and it was only later that I realized that he had noticed something in his delicate mind.

Soon the tents outside were all set up, and they knew that they would have a long way to go from tomorrow, so they all rested early. I leaned back in my chair, closed my eyes, and quickly became confused. Suddenly, I felt as if someone had touched my hand, and I was startled and gradually woke up. I didn't open my eyes, my first sense was naturally hearing, and I felt that there was a quiet place around me, and my breathing was very regular, and the rest of the people were also asleep.

Suddenly, I felt that my arm had been touched by someone again, and the touch was strange, but I couldn't tell what was strange. The moment I opened my eyes, my whole body froze, because I felt that my arm was wrapped around something cold, and it was definitely not a human hand. And...... That thing is moving! I was about to look down, only to hear Sheng Shiyao shouting from behind my ears: "Don't move!" ”

His voice was small, barely uttered, but it was so quiet that it could be heard. I didn't dare to move any more, but I already knew what was on my arm. I felt the breath behind me slowly approaching, and my arm had been circled for the second time, and I could feel the tight power. I hurriedly turned around and saw Sheng Shiyao holding the head of the red flower snake between his two fingers, and his arm was entangled by the snake, because of the tricky angle, the snake's head could not attack him.

Sheng Shiyao stretched out his left finger and pinched the snake seven inches hard, and the snake body suddenly let go, it seems that it is really right to hit the snake seven inches. Although this series of actions is only in an instant, but the danger is very frightening to me, if I wake up just now, as long as I move a point, I will go to Liu Yue's successor.

I didn't expect that there would be a red flower snake in our car, it seems that Liu Yue woke up and wanted to say something urgently, just to remind us that the snake was still in the car, but she fainted again, and was finally met by me. Zhou Tong had been sleeping unrealistically, and a little movement woke him up, and after seeing the dead red flower snake, his face changed and he hurriedly asked me if I was okay, I shook my head, but I still felt that I still had palpitations.

woke up Liuzi, turned on the lights in the car, and began to search in the car, not letting go of any corner. It was eventually confirmed that the snake was hidden under the passenger seat, and a hole was broken under the seat. This snake is really smart, and it knows that it will wait until the dead of night to haunt me, and fortunately it didn't bite me as soon as it came up, so I had a chance to let Sheng Shiyao do it.

There wasn't much movement, so it didn't alarm the others, and after sitting back in the car, no one felt sleepy. Sitting silently until dawn, gradually seeing someone come out of the tent, and then the team rested, Chen Bing walked to our car to ask if he was ready to get out of the car, Sheng Shiyao nodded, and did not mention what happened at night.

When the car got on the road, I asked him why he didn't tell Chen Bing about the red snake he had found in the car. He replied lightly: "Just take care of yourself." ”

I shut up suddenly, his cold feelings were not a day or two, so it was not surprising that he would answer like this. And the subsequent itinerary also proved his words, it is true that the only thing we can manage well is ourselves and the people we care about.

After three days of driving, it entered the high temperature period, and there was no trace of wind blowing during the day, only the scorching sun was on the top, like a stove, even if the air conditioning in the car was turned on to the maximum, it could not withstand the high temperature baking, and the heat was unbearable for everyone. At night, the temperature drops sharply again, and you have to wrap yourself in a coat, but at this time, there is a warm air conditioner in the car, and you can still resist.

So Chen Bing asked Professor Qin to discuss with Sheng Shiyao whether to change to driving at night and let Huang Yaocheng and Alimu's car drive slower, otherwise they would be exposed to the sun during the day, and even camels would not be able to bear it. The wagon had been covered with a shelter for the camels, but it was still unusually hot. At the highest temperature in the afternoon, the car thermometer showed that the temperature outside the car was 60 degrees, and the air conditioner in the car was hovering around 40 degrees, which could not cool down at all.

We know that the first test in the desert is the sudden change in temperature. As soon as the three parties combined, they decided to drive at night and build sand barriers during the day to escape the heat. In the past three days, Liu Yue has woken up every day, his eyes have always been sluggish, he is delirious, he drank some water and fell asleep again, relying on nutritional injections to maintain his life, and he has obviously lost weight.

Fortunately, we had enough supplies before we came, not only food and water, but also medicine.

In this way, the day and night reversed and the night drove for another two days, and people began to feel tired gradually, and even if they sat in the car and did not move, they did not walk on their feet, and their physical strength was also consumed little by little in this desert. The main thing is that during the day, even if we build a sand barrier to escape the heat, the high temperature still penetrates under the surface of everyone's skin and extracts water from our bodies.

The water brought with you is gradually decreasing, and until you find the Black Stone Forest, you must keep the water you need for the return trip. Because of this, the amount of water ingested is decreasing, and the body is losing water, which naturally leads to fatigue.

I heard an exclamation from the front, and I saw the truck dumping to the side, and when I saw that it was about to overturn, my heart was about to jump out. Fortunately, the body stopped when it was tilted nearly 45 degrees, and the other two cars hurriedly stopped, and the next person went to inspect it. It was me and Zhou Tong who went up in the car, and when we ran over there, we saw that the driver Huang Yaocheng was stuck in the seat, and Alimu pushed the car door hard, but he couldn't push it open.

At this time, Chen Bing and others also rushed over, and as soon as they saw this situation, Zhang Luoren stepped forward to save people, and even dragged the two out of the car. Huang Yaocheng sat on the sand with a white face, his eyes were full of horror, obviously frightened, but fortunately, his leg was a little sprained because it was stuck, and it was not serious. Alimu was in a better mood than him, but it was also after a while, and after a few sips of water, he explained that he was on the wrong path, and we drove into the quicksand.

I looked at the truck, and the whole left half of the wheel was stuck in the sand, and I couldn't dig it out for a while, and the rest of the people were leading the three camels that had been killed by the pond fish. Zhou Tong saw that he couldn't help much for the time being, so he pulled me and motioned for me to go back to the car and report the situation to Sheng Shiyao.

I went back to the car and told Sheng Shiyao about the matter, and he looked out the window thoughtfully, but didn't say anything.

After a while, Zhou Tong came back again, he said that he decided that he could not drive for the time being, first, the truck had to find a way to get out of the sand pit, and second, Huang Yaocheng drove us to the quicksand pit because of excessive fatigue, misjudged, and took us to the vicinity of the quicksand pit.

I know that when tiredness comes, something will happen, and we can also take turns driving by Liuzi and Zhou Tong in the car, the two of them are too tired, Sheng Shiyao can also drive, but not fatigue driving. That Huang Yaocheng drove alone for five days in a row, and then it became a night car, plus he had to identify the road, and finally something went wrong.

It was almost five o'clock in the morning, and in another half an hour, it would be dawn. Suddenly, a slight call came from behind the car: "Brother Yao." When I looked back, it was Liu Yue who woke up, and this was the first time she had been able to speak since she was bitten by a snake.

Sheng Shiyao first got into the back seat and commanded softly: "Don't speak." Fingers caught her pulse, and we all watched with bated breath, and after a moment, he whispered, "Drink some salt water to replenish the salt needed by the human body." If you can sit up later, it's best to eat something liquid, and is there any eight-treasure porridge in the back compartment? ”

The last sentence was asking us, Zhou Tong nodded again and again, and replied excitedly: "Yes, there are many more, I'll go get it." ”
