Chapter 20: Flying Ants

Along the way, I ate and slept in the open air, and all kinds of hardships were naturally not mentioned.

Accompanied by more than 20 people from Captain Watson, the monsters who dared to come to fight the autumn wind naturally had to weigh and weigh, and the dangers encountered were much less.

After walking for more than ten days, it has been a full month since the system timed the crossing from Orchard Village to Hearthstone and then here.

The team came to a large desert.

All eyes were yellow, except for the sand and sand.

Not even a hint of wind.

The occasional bash of green, a giant cactus standing tall in the desert.

It was noon, and the sun was so big that it made people drowsy, and even the last trace of moisture on people's bodies had to be taken away.

Sun Wenhao wiped his cheeks with his arm, without a drop of sweat, what was wiped off was a layer of white salt frost.

He turned back to Captain Watson, who was walking behind, and said,

"Good brother, you've sent far enough, now you can go back.

Now I'll go on my own. ”

Captain Watson took out a cowhide bladder and took a big sip, smiled evilly, patted him on the shoulder and said,

"Let's send you across this desert, it's not far enough for us to go back.

Our hostess, brother, you know. ”

He hung the cowhide bladder on the belt and tied it, patted Sun Wenhao on the shoulder, and said with a little complicated words,

"Brother Sun, forgive my brother for being nosy today and saying something that shouldn't be said,

Our hostess, although sometimes a little overbearing, has the same heart as his father, Count Mario, and is very good.

Brother, I can see that Ellen has a very good impression of you, we just don't understand why you want to reject her.

Is treasure hunting really that important?

A woman who loves you, a title that honors your ancestors, a large territory that belongs to you, all of which can't leave you? ”

Captain Watson takes it for granted that Sun Wenhao, like Earl Ma, is also a crazy treasure hunter, in order to find a "source of life" that he has never heard of.

Able to give up everything.

Sun Wenhao really had no way to answer this question, so he could only sigh and pretend to be deaf and dumb.

……

By the end of the day, they had gone deep into the desert.

At night, the temperature drops quickly, and it's cold to death.

There is a saying in the desert that best describes its changeable temperature, which is called "eating watermelon with a stove in your arms".

A dozen dozen people set up several small tents behind the leeward of a giant cactus, and everyone took turns sleeping.

Wrapped in a blanket and holding a plush toy-sized illusion in his arms, Sun Wenhao sat on the sand and looked at the night sky full of stars.

The sky in the desert at night is exceptionally clean, without a trace of clouds.

The sky was full of small sparkling stars.

A lot, a lot.

Sun Wenhao has never seen so many stars.

A little intoxicated for a while......

Suddenly, he felt the Phantom in his arms shrug his shoulders.

Sun Wenhao was a little strange and asked softly,

"What's wrong? Why are you crying? ”

Phantom blinked, tears glinted in her blue eyes, and she said,

"I miss my mom, I miss my dad......

I want Orchard Village......

I...... I want to go home......"

"Uh......"

Sun Wenhao had two big heads, he held Phantom Color, rested his chin on her hair, and discussed,

"Good brother, it's not good to send you back in person now.

That...... Otherwise, you go back with Uncle Watson tomorrow, and Sister Xiaoai will arrange for someone to take you back to Orchard Village. ”

Phantom thought for a few moments, suddenly wiped a handful of tears and laughed, and said.

"I lied to you!

I don't want to go back. ”

Then she turned around and hugged Sun Wenhao's neck and swung the swing twice and said,

"I still want to see the world with my good brother.

Teacher Pea said that a child who does something halfway is not a good child. ”

Sun Wenhao stroked her transparent wings twice, then held her in the palm of his hand and said,

"Good! Then a good brother will show you the world! ”

Under the starry sky, a young man and a goblin snuggled together,

Gradually fall asleep......

……

The next morning, before the sun had fully risen, they hastily ate something and began to hurry while it was cold.

After a morning of walking, it was getting hotter and hotter, and there was no wind yet.

The yellow sand on the ground is hot and hot, and rolling off the inside of the shoes can blister out the hot water on people's feet.

Phantom shrugged his wings like a stunned man, and he couldn't fly, so he could only lie on Sun Wenhao's shoulder and be groggy.

Suddenly, someone in front of me shouted.

"Oasis! Oasis ahead! Hahaha! ”

After Sun Wenhao heard this, he ran a few steps quickly, leaving a series of footprints of different shades on the ground.

He saw a green patch ahead, a bay of lakes surrounded by many coconut trees, and large spiky green trees, surrounded by fat cacti.

Sun Wenhao rubbed his eyes vigorously, and after making sure that it was not a mirage, he also ran over excitedly with the guards in front of him cheering.

Everyone rushed to the water's edge and drank bitterly, and buried their faces in the water, the refreshing taste cannot be described in words.

Although I know that it is just colorless and tasteless water, I feel extremely sweet when I drink it, as if any wahaha, Nongfu Spring, Cestbon, and ice dew are not as delicious as the current water in this bay and lake.

Everyone filled all the water bladders on their bodies, and then many people took off their clothes and jumped in to take a shower.

Sun Wenhao was not exempt from vulgarity, and also jumped into the lake to enjoy the rare coolness of the lake.

Squatted down and dived in the water, and then came out again, wiping his cheeks with his hand, cold and refreshing, as if all the fatigue had been washed away by the current.

At this time, Sun Wenhao suddenly saw that something seemed to be flying in the sky.

He hurriedly patted Captain Watson, who was also washing up next to him, and said,

"Guess what I saw?"

Captain Watson shook the drops of water on his head and said,

"What?"

"Ants."

"Cut!" Captain Watson said nonchalantly,

"What's so strange about ants?"

Sun Wenhao said,

"But I saw that it was a flying ant, right in the sky.

It's so big. ”

Sun Wenhao gestured, the size was the size of a piglet.

Flying ants, and the size of piglets.

Watson felt strange, looked at the sky, and asked,

"Where? Where is it? ”

I didn't see anything after watching it for a long time.

Sun Wenhao said,

"Oh, they flew away."

Captain Watson was speechless, he thought Sun Wenhao was making fun of him.

After washing for a while, Sun Wenhao saw Phantom flying on the coconut tree on the side and resting with wings.

Suddenly, she screamed.

Fly up, point into the distance and shout,

"Good brother! Uncle Watson, come on!

Look how many there are over there! Better! ”

The people who were taking a bath were startled and ran up to get dressed.

Sun Wenhao ran ashore with water droplets and asked to the sky,

"What's there?"

Phantom said,

"There are so many ants! Lots of ants!

They're coming here! ”

"What?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Running under the coconut tree and looking into the distance, I saw that the direction of Phantom's finger was dense, and the ground was red and black, covering the yellow sand, and it was rapidly extending towards them.
