Chapter 645: An Oasis in the Desert

Several members of the delegation met and discussed it, and decided not to go back, but in that case, they would have to correct their next course.

After some discussion, the group re-charted a route, and then everyone mounted their camels and continued to their final destination.

At this time, the gerbil incident in the ruins of the ancient city had been left behind by them, and the members of the expedition began to march in the desert again.

After the black sandstorm stopped, the desert was now restored to its original appearance, and the big sun, hanging high in the sky, shone unscrupulously on the earth.

Fortunately, in this season, the weather is not too high, even if you walk during the day, this temperature can still be tolerated, but after nightfall, the temperature drops a lot, and they also need to keep warm and cold when they sleep.

Yesterday's black sandstorm redressed this big desert, this is the world's second largest mobile desert, a terrible black sandstorm blew over, the entire desert sand dunes moved forward a lot.

The sun's rays shone on the yellow sand of the great desert, shining with a hint of gold, and Wu Ze and his expedition group, composed of eleven people and twenty-four camels, walked on the rolling sand dunes like a drop in the ocean, too small to be mentioned.

The vast desert, as far as the eye can see, is surrounded by endless yellow sand, behind them, there is a long list of camel footprints, these are the traces of their walking.

But it didn't take long for the next gale to blow freely out all the traces of their journey, as if no one had ever come.

At this time, Wu Ze sighed in his heart, he really admired the ancient merchants who were running on this Silk Road, they were able to endure the loneliness and hardship of this long journey, not far away, from the far west to here, and then from here to continue to walk to the rich Central Plains, their spirit of not being afraid of difficulties and dangers is really admirable.

But if Wu Ze is allowed to live that kind of life, he can't bear that kind of loneliness, he thinks that even if he can endure that kind of hardship, he will not choose this profession, which is too tiring.

Luo Fatzi, who was walking in front of the team, suddenly shouted excitedly after climbing over a sand mountain: "Oasis, come and see, there is an oasis ahead." ”

The members of the entire inspection group, after hearing Luo Fatzi's words, were all excited, and they rushed to the front, and at this moment, the camel team that was originally arranged in a long snake formation immediately became a mess.

When they all ran to this sand mountain, the members of the expedition team found that there was a rare touch of green in the desert in the distance, and it was obvious that there was an oasis, which was like an incomparably precious emerald, dotted in this golden desert, which was very bright and conspicuous.

In the vast desert hinterland, such an oasis can be found, for the members of the expedition who have walked in the desert for several days, it is as if they have been injected with a strong stimulant in their bodies, and all of them are in an unusually high mood.

Among them, Lao Tie was the happiest, because the discovery of the oasis meant to find enough water to give his camels a full drink.

After a burst of amazement, several young people in the delegation rode forward on camels with great excitement without anyone urging them.

Running at the front was Luo Fatzi, who was the most active in the inspection group, he raised his right hand and shouted there: "Comrades, there is a green paradise ahead, let's rush forward!" ”

It's a pity that they only lasted for ten minutes with this enthusiasm, because after they had been running around the desert for more than ten minutes, they found that the oasis in front of them was still so far away.

"What we're seeing now isn't going to be a mirage, is it?" Luo Fatzi stared at the green in the distance, and asked Wu Ze with some uncertainty.

"Fatty, be patient, in such an unobstructed place where the view is unobstructed, you look like the oasis is very close, but in fact it is far away from us, don't walk such a little way, you will feel impatient." Wu Ze explained with a smile.

"Oh, got it." Luo Fatty's head drooped down at once, this guy just has no patience.

It didn't seem like a long distance, but it took them nearly two hours to get there, and by the time they reached the oasis, the sun was already setting in the west.

The oasis in front of them was not too big, the location was relatively low-lying, and in the middle of the oasis was a sea child, surrounded by a lot of strange willows and reeds.

Don't look at this big desert is full of yellow sand, it seems to be very arid, but in fact, under it, there is a huge amount of underground water.

In the vicinity of this great desert alone, there are rivers with a large flow such as the Tarim River and the Peacock River, and the snow water flowing down from the Tianshan Mountains and Kunlun Mountains penetrates into the depths of the desert through these rivers, forming a desert underground water system.

These desert underground water systems, in some low-lying areas of the desert, gush back to the ground, causing plants to grow on the surface, and then form an oasis.

The oasis in front of them was clearly formed in this way.

However, Wu Ze and they were not interested in how this oasis was formed, the reason why they were excited was because they had not seen such a large area of green for a long time, and it was very rare to see such an oasis in this desert full of yellow sand.

And for several days, when they opened their eyes, they were already yellow, which made their eyes have visual fatigue, and this oasis in front of them is still very good for them to repair visual fatigue.

Luo Fatzi was the first to rush to this small oasis, he turned over and got off the camel, and ran towards the sea, after he ran to the water's edge, he immediately picked up a handful of water with his hand and sent it directly to his mouth.

"Bah, bah, bah...... How is this water salty? Luo Fat quickly spit out the water in his mouth.

"Haha......" Luo Fatzi's teasing behavior immediately made everyone laugh.

The water in this sea is slightly salty, people can't drink it directly, but the camel is no problem, with the example of Luo Fatzi, the other members of the delegation do not plan to test the poison again, the first thing they did after they arrived was to lead the camel they were riding, and walked to the sea in the middle of the oasis, so that the camel could drink enough.
