The rock lion laughed and said, "Although the horse runs fast, it is very squeamish, and in this sea of sand, I am afraid that it will not survive!" Besides, the camel really runs, and the speed is not very bad, but I am afraid that when you want it to run, you will no longer have the energy to sit. ”

Lu Gongzi said angrily: "You are making fun of me again!" ”

The green in front of him gradually decreased, and finally disappeared without a trace, and all that was left was the vast sea of sand that could not be seen at a glance, a gray and yellow color. That momentum, sure enough, the sea is not as good as me. At a glance, the yellow sand is flat, and there are several small sand dunes sparsely piled up there in the distance, which are also pitifully short, like naughty and naughty children.

Looking at the endless sea of sand and the dunes of the dunes, Gu Gongzi roared excitedly, flicked his long whip, drove the camels away, and the bowl-sized hooves kept flying, bringing up pieces of flying sand and turning into a faint dust mist.

That speed, sure enough, was only a little slower than that of horses.

The two of them shouted and chased after each other, and several camels ran wildly in the sea of sand, bringing up a tumbling dust and mist in an instant.

The rock lion and the white-clothed guide shook their heads with a smile, and chased after them with whips, heading towards the depths of the desert.

At first, everyone was still very excited on the camel, and gradually, the sun overhead slowly climbed into the middle of the sky, and it became naughty, and it was its turn to show its might, wantonly emitting a fiery bright light, scorching the sand and stone that had become hot.

The three sons who were riding on the camel had already been wilted from the sun, and they grabbed the white cloth that the rock lion had ordered to prepare and wrapped it on their heads, and the sweat was still densely dripping down, and their clothes were already soaked, sticky and sticky to their bodies, so they were not uncomfortable.

Lu Gongzi grabbed the leather bag from the side, held it high, and poured it down with his neck up. I don't know how much water I've drunk, but I know that the leather bag that weighs several pounds is about to be drunk by him. Bursts of intense dizziness kept attacking, and Lu Gongzi sat on the hump and became a little shaky, looking at it as if he couldn't hold it anymore. If it weren't for the fact that the two of them were even more stuffy together, I was afraid that he would want to lie in the arms of Gu Gongzi or Shan Gongzi.

The sun is scorching, the sand sea is flat, and there is no place to hide from the shadow. Lu Gongzi's pale face was furrowed, and at this time, he understood why the rock lion said that he couldn't hold on, even if it was difficult to let him be exposed to the sun for a few hours, let alone in this scorching sea of sand.

The occasional wind blows is also yellow sand, scorching abnormally, and you can't feel the slightest coolness.

With the same expression as him, there were also Gu Gongzi and Shan Gongzi, who made a bitter face and closed their lips. Talking is a waste of water, they don't want to be like Lu Gongzi to pour cold water.

Sweat soaked through the clothes, the yellow sand rushed in, and the original gray robe instantly turned gray yellow, and the same was true on the face. Sweat flowed down, and instantly rushed into a big face, looking funny, like a clown pretending. It's just that at this moment, the three of them are sitting on the hump with their heads bowed, where are they still in the mood to make fun of others.

The only ones who still maintained a relaxed expression were the rock lion and the desert guide. Their appearance is not much better, and the gauze that wraps their faces is also yellow and black with dust and sweat.

The crowd sat sickly on the hump, and no one spoke. The only thing that sounded in my ears was the rustle of camels stepping on the yellow sand, the sound of camel bells under my neck, and the occasional hot wind whirring through my ears.

If they still wipe their sweat from time to time, they will suspect that they are puppeteers.

Walking in a dull manner, the rock lion suddenly spoke: "Let's take a break and eat something!" ”

Lu Gongzi raised his head weakly, glanced at him blankly, his eyes were full of doubt, and he didn't even have the spirit to speak.

Gu Gongzi asked weakly, "Rest under this sun?" Will it be dried into a radish? ”

The rock lion shook his head and smiled silently, rolled over and dismounted, and led several camels together. The camel that was sitting all the way let it lie down, and there was a camel standing next to it, and the rock lion grabbed a leather cushion and threw it under the camel's belly, sat down comfortably, opened a leather pouch and poured it up to the neck.

Sitting under the belly of a camel, I really can't get the sun!

Gu Gongzi's face was slightly happy, and he clapped his hands and praised: "Hey, this method is good!" Why didn't you say it earlier! ”

The rock lion didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned out a few pieces of dried meat and chewed them.

"A few sons, please take a seat!"

The rest of the camels were lined up for them by a guide, and several leather mats were laid under the belly of the camels. Gu Gongzi and Shan Gongzi turned over and got off the camel, and excitedly drilled under the camel's belly. The leather cushion on the yellow sand was also a little hot, but it felt cooler than on the hump.

Lu Gongzi turned over weakly, and when he landed on the sand and gravel, he suddenly took advantage of it, swayed from side to side for a while, and almost fell to the ground.

Shaking and burrowing under the hunchback, he fell directly onto the leather cushion, leaning his neck and pouring water violently, choking him to cough. After filling up the water, Lu Gongzi did not eat the dry food handed by Gu Gongzi, and closed his eyes and lay down to sleep.

Several people poured water and ate dry food like this, but no one took pictures of the dust on their faces. In the beginning, as soon as they got dusty, they would slap twice, and when they were tired, they didn't bother to do this futile thing again.

The tall, skinny guide was still fiddling with something outside before coming in a moment to rest.

Gu Gongzi and Shan Gongzi poured enough water, grabbed a piece of dried meat and chewed it slowly, their appetite was also not good, but it was much stronger than Lu Gongzi.

The rock lion ate almost a pound of dry food, Gu Gongzi only ate two pieces of dried meat, and the mountain prince only ate one, and the guide came from behind, but ate three or four more pieces than them.

The guide suddenly got up and walked outside, picked up a jar covered with black gauze, and said with a smile: "A few sons, please try this." ”

"What is this?"

Gu Gongzi snatched it up, turned the jar upside down, and drank it against the small spout.

Cold, sweet, and refreshing! I finally felt a hint of coolness!

"Goo, goo......"

I saw Gu Gongzi's throat stirring, his mouth did not leave the can, and he couldn't stop pouring it in one go. Look at his posture, as if he wants to drink all this can of cool yogurt.

"Hey, don't just drink alone! Give me some! ”

The mountain boy looked a little moved, and after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Gu Gongzi put it down, so he had to open his mouth to urge.

The guide looked at their greedy statues and laughed happily.

Gu Gongzi reluctantly handed the jar to Shan Gongzi, who took it excitedly, couldn't wait to raise his head and drink wildly, and suddenly became like Gu Gongzi.

Gu Gongzi looked at it with a smile and reminded: "Hey, don't drink it all, leave some for him!" ”

The rock lion shook his head and said: "This doll really can't support it, I think it's going home!" ”

Hearing their laughter, Lu Gongzi opened his eyes in a daze and asked weakly, "What is a good thing, give me some drink!" ”

The patient spoke, and Shan Gongzi had to stop the momentum of continuing to drink and handed the jar to Lu Gongzi.

After taking the jar, Lu Gongzi lifted the jar weakly, and looked at his swaying from side to side, Shan Gongzi hurriedly held it for him, lest he fall the jar. The jar doesn't break, and the yogurt goes to waste.

Although it felt a little cold, Lu Gongzi drank for a while, drank his little belly bulging, weakly put the jar aside, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

Gu Gongzi, who was waiting a little anxiously next to him, snatched it and poured a few mouthfuls before handing it to Shan Gongzi. Without the help of the rock lion and the guide, the three of them drank up the jar of yogurt.

After drinking yogurt, Gu Gongzi and Shan Gongzi had the spirit to chew dry meat. They knew that they couldn't sustain their physical strength to cross this sea of sand just by drinking this.

Lu Gongzi hid on the leather cushion, never bitten a piece of dry food from beginning to end, his eyes were slightly closed, and even breathing sounded in the still scorching sea of sand, and sometimes writhing restlessly.

The guide shook his head and said, "Look at the situation of this son, I'm afraid I won't be able to cross this sea of sand!" ”

The rock lion smiled: "I said it earlier, but this little doll is also as stubborn as a donkey, if he doesn't let him suffer, he won't give up, now, let's start going back!" ”

Hiding under this hunchback, drinking cold yogurt, and chewing a few pieces of dry food, Gu Gongzi recovered some of his spirits, and raised his voice when he heard the words and asked, "What!" Just come out, go back! ”

The rock lion laughed, "Unless you want him to die!" ”

Gu Gongzi looked at Lu Gongzi who was sleeping with his eyes closed, sighed, shook his head weakly, and said unwillingly: "It can only be like this!" ”

After resting for more than half an hour, the rock lion said, "We can go on the road!" ”

Shan Gongzi pushed Lu Gongzi, who was already asleep, and when he touched his forehead, it was extremely hot, about the same temperature as the sand and stone, so frightened that he hurriedly withdrew his hand and exclaimed: "Brother Lu has a fever!" ”

Rock Lion said: "It's heat stroke, not fever!" Here are a few pills, fill him with them. ”

The rock lion stopped, frowned and thought for a while: "The situation is not good, we can't even go back now, let's rest here!" ”

The rock lion reluctantly grabbed a tent from his bag and set it up in the middle of the herd. As soon as he set it up, Gu Gongzi hugged Lu Gongzi and his people with leather cushions.

"You kid......"

The rock lion looked at the bold little scoundrel with wide eyes, shook his head, smiled bitterly, and proceeded to remove another tent from the camel.

As soon as it was set up, Gu Gongzi grabbed the leather cushion and rushed in, thinking of a trick again. The rock lion grabbed him with a quick hand, and directly took him to his head, falling on the hot sand and stones.

Seeing the ancient boy jumping up from the sand and stone in embarrassment, while busy setting up the guide and the mountain boy, he laughed happily and swept away most of the boredom just now.

The rock lion blocked the tent with his strong body, and said with a smile: "That doll has a heat stroke, and it is understandable, you kid has no situation, and you still want to be lazy?" You see that little doll is building by herself, it's really a manly husband in vain! ”

Gu Gongzi scratched his scalp in embarrassment and said: "Who said that there is no situation, isn't this weak and unenergetic, just trying to sleep!" ”

Laughing enough, he beckoned to Gu Gongzi and said, "Childe, this tent is set up, you can go in and sleep." ”

Gu Gongzi patted the sand and gravel on his body, and quickly climbed in and began to sleep.

Or let him steal until he's lazy! The rock lion shook his head with a wry smile, and leaned into the little tent to rest. After the mountain boy and the guide set up, they got into the tent one after another, and rested and slept under the scorching sun.

In this way, Gu Gongzi and they had only traveled in this sea of sand for half a day, and they had to camp in this camel herd to rest, and only waited for the night to fall and the temperature dropped, and then they started to set out on the return journey.

Sleeping in the tent, the temperature was still unusually hot, and the sweat was still flowing, Gu Gongzi and a few of them tossed and turned in it, and they were woken up in a daze several times.

Gu Gongzi and they insisted on untying all their clothes and hanging them on top of the tent to dry, leaving only a small pair of pants on their bodies, even so, Jingchi's body was still sweating uncomfortably.

Lu Gongzi, who was in a coma due to heat stroke, had already instructed Shan Gongzi to undress him and cool him down.

After sleeping for a while, the mountain boy, who was only wearing underwear, suddenly couldn't stand it anymore, and turned over from the leather cushion and sat up. Looking at his soaked clothes, full of sweat and salty smell, he frowned, listened carefully for a while, gritted his teeth, untied his shirt with a slightly red face, and untied the tightly wrapped strips of white cloth, revealing the snow-white towering twin peaks.

The clothes were already soaked, and it was useless to wipe them, so they hung them on the tent to dry. Xue Yue'er, who pretended to be the son of the mountain, looked at her sweaty body with a red face, thinking that it would be Li Hao who might come in, so she gritted her teeth and fell asleep like this.

The fiery sun above the sand sea, along the high dome of the sky, slowly climbed down towards the edge of the desert, at a turtle speed.

After being woken up by the heat several times, Gu Gongzi felt irritable, got up from the leather cushion, and shook his thin head in annoyance.

After sitting for a while, he got up and lifted the curtain of the tent, and looked at the sun above his head, waiting until it set. shook his head gloomily, and suddenly ran into Xue Yue'er's tent with a puff of smoke.

Looking at Xue Yue'er, who was topless and still wearing belly protection, Gu Gongzi didn't have any strange reaction on his face. Hunched in, just about to reach out to shake her awake, Xue Yue'er woke up, looked at him in a daze and said, "Brother Gu, can you hurry now?" ”

Gu Gongzi withdrew his hand, sat on the leather cushion, looked at Xue Yue'er sullenly, and said softly: "No, I can't sleep, I'm here to talk to you." ”

Xue Yue'er turned over and sat up, wiped the sweat on her body, and suddenly found that she was not wearing clothes, so ashamed that she blushed and lowered her head, ripped off a piece of clothing on her head, and sat next to Gu Gongzi.

Gu Gongzi suddenly said again: "I'd better go and see how his situation is!" ”

Standing up, Xue Yue'er grabbed her and said, "I'll go with you." ”

didn't wrap the cloth belt anymore, only put on underwear, Xue Yue'er and Gu Gongzi walked to Lu Gongzi's tent.

When the curtain was lifted, the eyes were Lu Gongzi's snow-white and delicate body, covered with sweat, and like Xue Yue'er, only one belly protector was left. The little belly lay down together, and I slept quite peacefully.

Xue Yue'er looked at Lu Gongzi sympathetically and touched his forehead, which was slightly better than before. Pull off the dry towel above his head and gently wipe it clean for him.

I had just wiped it clean, and after only a few moments, sweat came out densely. Xue Yue'er reluctantly stopped moving, sighed, and whispered: "Here, how can you bear it, you are so stubborn in life, you are guilty now!" ”

Seeing that he had no accidents, Xue Yue'er and Gu Gongzi returned to their respective tents, and Xue Yue'er suddenly grabbed Gu Gongzi and brought him into her own tent.

Anyway, it was too hot to sleep, so the two sat opposite each other, fanning each other. After only fanning the wind for a while, Gu Gongzi stopped his movements in annoyance, and simply closed his eyes and lay down on the leather cushion.

Xue Yue'er looked at Gu Gongzi and wanted to lie down to sleep, but she was afraid that she would squeeze him, making him even more uncomfortable, and she didn't want to go to his tent.
