Chapter 54: The Land of White Sands
The most basic water gathering talisman is not difficult, in order not to waste materials, Gu Xiangyang once again turned on the divine eye to assist. Half an hour later, more than 20 water gathering talismans were completed.
Licking his dry lips, Gu Xiangyang went to the back truck and took an iron pot out. And Gu Xiangyang's series of actions have long attracted everyone's attention.
Gu Xiangyang faced the big iron pot on the ground, held a water gathering charm with one hand and two fingers, and said something in his mouth: "Heaven and earth are infinite, Qiankun borrows the law!" Gather water with gas! Coagulate! ”
Immediately, the talisman was placed into the large iron pot, and gradually, the talisman in the iron pot slowly became wet, and then water droplets appeared on the talisman.
In just a few seconds, the talisman suddenly burst open, and a column of water suddenly rose in the iron pot, half a meter high.
The iron pot simply could not hold so much water, and it overflowed directly into the sand.
"Quick! Get something to fill it with water! Gu Xiangyang reacted the fastest, and immediately shouted loudly when he saw this situation.
"Jingling" The crash of various utensils sounded, and dozens of people rushed towards Gu Xiangyang with what they could find around them.
"Eh! Your sister! What a group of white-eyed wolves, this is the water that Lao Tzu made, and Lao Tzu hasn't even taken a sip of it! Gu Xiangyang was knocked to the ground by the crowd in an instant, sat on the ground and scolded.
Soon, I saw Cao Zhihui, Jin Jiyu, Li Xin, and Zheng Yun being squeezed out of the crowd one by one, and people at this time just wanted to grab the water and survive, so it didn't matter if you were the identity or gender.
"Huh? If it's gone, why is the water gone? A short time later, there was a shout from the crowd.
After a while, everyone's eyes looked at Gu Xiangyang. And the four women who had been squeezed out of the crowd long ago were even more angry with lust in their eyes.
"What do you want to do? I, I don't sell my body. Gu Xiangyang covered his chest with his hands and said weakly.
"Hurry up and get me some more water, little bastard, I didn't grab any of it just now." Jin Zhuyu was the first to rush over and grab Gu Xiangyang's collar and shouted.
This gold-inlaid jade is now staring at Gu Xiangyang with red eyes, with a look of a beast choosing people and devouring them.
"yes, we didn't get it either." Li Xin also raised the empty kettle and poured it towards Gu Xiangyang.
"Eh, Sister Mosaic, let me go first, the person who has already got the water will help find a larger clean container, my water is not easy to come by, don't waste it." Gu Xiangyang gently patted Jin Jiaoyu's hand grasping his collar and motioned for her to let go of herself.
"Quick! Go get those buckets off the truck! Someone in the Eight Ministries immediately raised their voices and organized people to fetch the water storage bucket.
The bucket was actually a stainless steel welded thing, loaded on a truck, but fortunately, the empty bucket was not too heavy, and the big guys were lifted down.
Looking at the volume of the water storage bucket, Gu Xiangyang generously took out five water gathering talismans and cast them in. This time, no one finally went to grab the water, and this Nima rushed high with a column of water, making it seem like a heavy rain within a dozen meters around.
The crowd could only cheer in the rain. Water, the source of life, with water there is the possibility of living.
On the road again the next day, everyone no longer doubted Gu Xiangyang's judgment, even if Gu Xiangyang was wrong, the big guys were willing to follow him, no way, who let Gu Xiangyang get water?
Now, in order to save fuel, only one truck and one off-road vehicle are brought on the road, and all those unnecessary vehicles and things are left here. Of course, there is also a signal transmitter so that you can find it if you need anything.
"Hey, Xiao Guzi, your ability to turn paper into water is really not small. I said, can you teach me? Cao Zhihui sat beside Gu Xiangyang and asked, and poured a large mouthful of water by the way.
"Hey, you save some drink, my talisman is a high-end product, there are not many of them, if you run out, I will see how you live." Gu Xiangyang didn't want to discuss the matter of Fu Zheng with her, this was given to him by the fairy sister. Without her consent, Gu Xiangyang didn't dare to teach it privately.
"Hmph, stingy." After Cao Zhihui finished speaking, she glanced at the gold-inlaid jade who was sitting on the other side of Gu Xiangyang.
But Jin Zhuyu looked at Cao Zhihui and then at Gu Xiangyang, and shook his head with a helpless smile.
Cao Zhihui's meaning, Jin Jiyu is very clear, isn't it just to let yourself help pry the edge and trick Gu Xiangyang into telling the secret of the talisman? But in the current situation, Jin Jianyu would not dare to do this.
First, Gu Xiangyang is very cunning, and second, if he goes too far and makes Gu Xiangyang angry, the consequences are unimaginable.
Seeing that Jin Zhuyu refused to help her, Cao Zhihui glared at Gu Xiangyang angrily, and leaned back on her seat angrily and stopped talking.
The car drove all the way to the direction designated by Gu Xiangyang, and when it was time to change the driver at noon, Gu Xiangyang took the initiative to ask to drive by himself, which was the first time that the goods had made such a request after entering the desert.
At the beginning, Li Xin also asked him a few times if he wanted to practice here, anyway, no one here will check the driver's license, and there are no road rules.
But Gu Xiangyang didn't touch it to death, the reason was that his life was only suitable for being served, and the profession of serving people like a coachman was not suitable for him.
But today, I don't know which tendon is wrong, and I would make this kind of request, and I forced Li Xin to stuff her into the back seat.
Putting on sunglasses, adjusting the seat and reflectors, and holding the steering wheel, Gu Xiangyang took a deep breath and said: "Double step, start, slow release clutch...... Wipe! Why is this car not responding? Is it out of gas? ”
"Poof!" Zheng Yun on the co-pilot looked at Gu Xiangyang's embarrassed expression, and laughed out loud without holding back.
"I said, what are you laughing at? I learned this car from the two of you, and I made a fool of myself because you didn't teach it well! Gu Xiangyang finished speaking angrily and tried again.
"Rub! This car has a grudge against me, doesn't it? Why can't it catch fire? "Gu Xiangyang is in a hurry now, and this time it's ugly.
"Haha, don't try it, although this car is a manual transmission, but the starting method is different." Zheng Yun laughed enough and said, "You step on the brake, then turn the key and press the switch here, and it will start in three seconds." ”
"I rub, and this is exquisite? You're deliberately looking at me to make a fool of myself, aren't you? Gu Xiangyang tried it, and sure enough, the car started with a roar.
"How? You didn't ask us, you're the amazing Mr. Kotani, and we thought you were deliberately doing a wrong demonstration? Hahaha. Cao Zhihui said in the back row.
These women began to chatter about Gu Xiangyang's performance, and they also nagged repeatedly following Gu Xiangyang's words: "Double stepping, starting, slow release clutch......"
Gu Xiangyang is so depressed, isn't it because he is not familiar with this car that he can't move? How many hours do you have to say this? And is this so funny?
After nearly four hours of driving, the ground was no longer pure sand, but some gray gravel mixed with the sand, and the terrain gradually became higher.
"Crunch!" In the sound of the women's frolicking, Gu Xiangyang suddenly stepped on the brakes, pulled the handbrake, pushed the door and got out of the car, and rushed to the front of the car.
"What's wrong with him?" Jin inlaid jade asked in the back row,
Li Xin replied blankly: "I don't know? It couldn't be that we were laughing at him all the way, he was stimulated, right? ”
"Impossible!" Cao Zhihui immediately retorted: "This guy is surprisingly thick-skinned, and it is impossible for him to be stimulated by this degree." ”
"You, look, white, white, white sand! Land of white sand! We've found the land of white sands! Zheng Yun in the front passenger seat suddenly pointed ahead and shouted loudly.
"Is this true? Land of white sand! We've found it! Cao Zhihui leaned forward, looked at the snow-white outside the car window and cheered loudly.
"What are you waiting for? Let's all go down! After Jin Jianyu finished speaking, he immediately opened the door and got out of the car, and ran in the direction of Gu Xiangyang.
After a while, everyone came running.
In front of them was a large valley, and everyone was standing on a rocky platform at the edge of the valley.
Below is a snow-white gravel, and the white sand shone in the evening sun with a brilliant golden red. Everyone was amazed by this wonder.
"Look over there!" Jin Jianyu raised his hand and pointed to the distance and said, "The terrain over there is like a gentle slope, let's go down from that side and spend the night in the white sand land tonight." ”
“OK!” Cao Zhihui snapped her fingers and beckoned everyone to go back to drive, and the group walked towards the gentle slope.
Descending the gentle slope, Jin Zhuyu pointed to a rock platform in front of him and said, "Let's set up camp here." ”
There was no objection from the crowd, and they started to set up the tent together. And Jin Zhuyu called Gu Xiangyang to go around to investigate together.
"Look here." Jin Jiyu squatted on it and began to pull the sand on the ground with his hands, and after a while, several pieces of things were pulled out.
"Huh? Is this a shell? Gu Xiangyang picked up a piece of something and looked at it, the gray-white flakes, and his fingers shattered with a little force.
"That's right! This is the shell, indicating that there was a river in the past, and according to this characteristic, if the river was the Hindustan River, then the ancient city of Hindustan was nearby, and the most likely location was in this valley. The gold inlaid jade stood up and looked out over the huge valley.
After the camp, the people did not rest immediately, but began to prepare their tools by the light of the campfire. After all, tomorrow will be ready to explore the area.
The night in the desert was very cold, and everyone in the camp fell asleep except for the two eight tribes who were on duty at night.
"Ahh A frightened shout rang out, followed by two gunshots.
"What's wrong?" Gu Xiangyang, who quickly rushed out of the tent, ran to the person who was shooting at the valley with a pistol and asked.
"Ghosts, ghosts!" The man replied in a trembling voice.
