Chapter 264: Into the Desert
Mu Yang knew that Ji Bingyan was acting, and his leg was not lame at all, but he didn't want to go to the desert, because people who had been there were full of fear of the desert.
Not to mention that it is now an ancient society that lacks conditions and tools, even in modern society, if you enter the desert, it is a very dangerous thing, and until now, no country can dare to say that it has truly conquered the desert.
Those East Asian countries have money, but they are still threatened by the desert all day long, drinking water is more expensive than gasoline, and the annual investment in planting trees and vegetation is more than the investment in building many large enterprises, but this is the case, it still does not help, and it still can't stop the progress of the desert.
After resting for a day in Ji Bingyan's luxurious manor, with six camels, as well as prepared tents, food, water and other supplies, Muyang and Hu Tiehua set out on the road again.
"How did he become lame?" Hu Tiehua was a little sad and sad.
"Don't you see that?"
"See what?"
"Usually Ji Bingyan is not this character, he has very few words, he can say a word, and he will never talk too much nonsense, but he has talked so much to us, and he has prepared so much for us, what do you think will happen." Muyang said.
Hu Tiehua was stunned for a moment, and then became angry, this is the kind of annoyance and anger that was deceived by a friend, "I am still sad for his disability, it turns out that he lied to us." ”
"He also has a hard time, after all, he has experienced the dangers of the Great Desert, no one wants to go into it, and now that he is living a comfortable and luxurious life, why should he go to the Great Desert to adventure." Mu Yang persuaded.
But Hu Tiehua was still angry, indignant at Ji Bingyan for giving up his friends like this, and rested in a place half a day after the two set off. Hu Tiehua disappeared, and Mu Yang knew that the hot-tempered Hu Tiehua must have gone to find Ji Bingyan.
Mu Yang didn't care either, but he took advantage of this time to use the taming technique on the six camels. Previously, Mu Yang had already used taming techniques on the batch of black horses under his crotch, with taming techniques, animals would become obedient and smart, his trip to the desert was extremely dangerous, Mu Yang didn't want to lose these livestock and make himself a lonely traveler, so he tamed these horses and camels.
Now these livestock. He was very close to Muyang, and Muyang also felt this trust and closeness from his heart, patting the head of each camel and letting them nibble on the golden thorn grass on the side of the road to replenish some physical strength.
Ji Bingyan finally came, looked at Mu Yang and smiled, but Hu Tiehua was depressed. Haven't gotten out of the feeling of being played yet.
This time, there is Ji Bingyan, a rich man. A huge convoy hit the road, and the three of them enjoyed all kinds of food and headed all the way to the desert.
Slowly, the road became more and more desolate, and there were fewer and fewer plants, and the occasional yellow dust obscured the sky. The road ahead could not be seen clearly, so the convoy had to stop and rest for half a day.
And along the way, Ji Bingyan kept telling Muyang and others about the horror of the desert, which was something he had personally experienced, which could be described as nine deaths and a lifetime.
"The most terrible in the desert. More than the same, in fact, a lot. The scorching sun during the day can scorch your skin, and the cold at night can keep you awake at night. ”
"We must protect our water, because without water, we will face death directly."
"Quicksand is everywhere, there are traps everywhere, and sometimes if we are not careful, we will sink under the sea of sand and never see a human figure again. Sandstorm, the most violent king in the desert, there is no one who is not afraid of him, even those small countries in the Western Regions, many of them are annihilated under a sandstorm. ”
"Sand bandits, the most ruthless bandits in the desert, they will not leave you alive, even if they rob you of your goods and livestock, they will not leave you a chance to live, they will puncture your water bladder and make you die of thirst in the desert. They do it just for fun. ”
"As long as you enter the desert, it is a fight between man and nature, and between people, and only by being fully prepared and vigilant at all times can you survive in the desert."
Speaking of this, he looked at Mu Yang and said, "You said that Black Pearl, the son of the king of the desert, took away the three girls, and left you a letter for you to come to the desert, do you know why?" ”
"Why?" Mu Yang didn't speak, but it was Hu Tiehua who asked.
"Because he knew that they couldn't kill Chu Liuxiang outside, only in the desert, in the place they were most familiar with, when Chu Liuxiang was at his weakest, could they kill him. Therefore, as soon as we enter the desert, the battle has already begun, and from now on, we must be careful not to give the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of, only in this way can we hope to enter the heart of the desert and rescue the three girls. Ji Bingyan said very solemnly.
Mu Yang nodded and acknowledged this statement.
When we finally entered the Gobi Desert, there was little green here, and the speed of the convoy was much slower. Because of the uneven sand dunes and the soft ground, it was difficult for the convoy to travel.
After reaching a town, Ji Bingyan said: "This is the last town and the last supply point in the desert, and we can no longer sit on comfortable carts, but can only ride livestock, and I have gone to ask the servants to prepare water and dry food." But at this moment, we have also entered the most dangerous place, and we are careful everywhere. ”
Ji Bingyan asked most of the servants to return to Yinchuan with carriages and other things, leaving only the three servants who were most familiar with the desert and a camel caravan.
The yellow sand is all over the sky, the scorching sun is in the sky, and the roasted people have a kind of burnt taste.
Muyang had also traveled alone in the desert before, but it was in winter, it was not so hot at all, summer was by no means a good time to enter the desert, the sun at this moment could really roast people to death, Muyang secretly measured the temperature of the sand on the ground, and it reached 67 degrees.
While the convoy was resting, he saw that some servants had buried eggs directly in the sand, and after some time they had taken them out and brought them to them, and they were already cooked, but they tasted quite delicious.
In modern society, Muyang also found a lot of reports about travelers entering the desert, due to car breakdowns, accidents and other reasons, the convoy was trapped in the desert, although the local rescue organization has been contacted, but many of them are still because of lack of water, and they will be sunburned to death in the desert because of the lack of water.
The majesty of the vast desert can be seen.
Sitting on the back of a camel, walking on the back of a sand dune, swaying, stepping on a long footprint behind it, only to be slowly buried by the fine sand blown by the wind after a short time. (To be continued.) )
