Chapter 145: Sneak Attack
In the vast desert, Tang Xiaojun walked forward alone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, it had been half a month since they left the Wolf Head Tribe.
At the beginning, after Tang Xiaojun learned that there was likely to be a human gathering place in the direction west of the Wolf Head Tribe, he decided to leave, even if the old shaman sincerely retained, he did not agree to stay.
In fact, Hou Dawei, Feng Zhengzheng and others were still willing to stay in the Wolf Head Tribe, but Tang Xiaojun still insisted on leaving.
His reason is also very simple, he does not think that the Wolf Head Tribe can survive for long.
Under Tang Xiaojun's inquiry, he learned that the Wolf Head Tribe was not without enemies, and their enemies were actually similar to those in Ironstone City, all of them were orcs, the difference was that the types of these orcs were relatively single, and they could even be called werewolves directly.
This made Tang Xiaojun realize that after the end of the world, human beings are no longer the masters of the earth, and fishmen, orcs, and more species that he doesn't know are rising extremely fast.
If humanity wants to continue to survive, competition with these new races is inevitable.
The Wolf Head tribe is too small, the population is too small, and the grassland they are located in is not large, and there are not enough resources on the grassland, so it is almost impossible to develop and grow. Quite simply, if the population doubles again, they will not be able to meet their food needs.
According to Tang Xiaojun's prediction, the wolf head tribe will perish sooner or later, or be forced to move away, even if they have magical totems and can become totem warriors and gain good strength, their overall strength is still too weak.
In this case, Tang Xiaojun believes that they might as well leave earlier. He believed that there would be large gathering places for human beings, and only when they arrived at such large gathering places could they have the possibility of living for a long time, otherwise, at most, they would only live temporarily.
After leaving the wolf-headed tribe, after walking for four or five days, Tang Xiaojun and his party walked out of the grassland, but they didn't expect that out of the grassland was the barren Gobi, fortunately, they were relatively well prepared, especially food and water, basically everyone in the team was full.
After walking for more than ten days, the Gobi became more and more barren, and finally turned into a desert, which made it difficult for them, but it was obviously impossible to turn back at this time, and Tang Xiaojun didn't want to give up, he had already walked so far, how could he still be willing to go back.
It was also at his insistence that everyone resolutely entered the desert with apprehension.
But they apparently underestimated the power of the desert, and it was only a day before they encountered a sandstorm. In this case, they really can't go any further, although Tang Xiaojun still doesn't want to give up, there is nothing he can do.
Unexpectedly, in the case of extremely low visibility, they actually separated, or rather, Tang Xiaojun himself broke away from the team.
A few days later, the sandstorm finally passed, but at this time, Tang Xiaojun didn't know where he was at all, but he wasn't very worried about Hou Dawei and them, after all, Bai Man was exposed, and he believed that they would not be in danger, but he was himself, and he didn't know what to do.
Soon, Tang Xiaojun's food and water were exhausted, and he could only identify the direction and walk all the way to the west.
In the absence of water, after only half a day, Tang Xiaojun couldn't bear it anymore, fortunately he had already seen an oasis in the distance.
Tang Xiaojun shook his head vigorously, because he was a little unsure if he was hallucinating, but fortunately, the oasis in the distance did not disappear from his eyes.
It didn't seem too far, but in fact, Tang Xiaojun walked for almost half a day to reach this oasis.
"There's water!"
As the distance got closer, Tang Xiaojun even smelled the smell of water vapor in the air, and immediately ran in excitedly, and immediately saw a small lake.
In the case of extreme lack of water in his body, Tang Xiaojun couldn't care about anything else, and without thinking about it, he jumped directly into the lake.
In the middle of the desert, it was dark late, and the sun had just set, and the lake was still a little hot, but it was already much cooler than the air outside.
Tang Xiaojun soaked in the lake water, only felt comfortable all over his body, and immediately picked up a wave of water with both hands, tasted it a little, and he suddenly remembered that in the desert, some lakes may be saltwater lakes, if it is really salty water, then after drinking it, it will only make him more thirsty.
Fortunately, the water here is light.
Tang Xiaojun put his mind at ease and began to drink water vigorously, until he couldn't drink anymore before he stopped, and found that his body was very tired, so he crawled back to the shore and lay on the ground to rest.
"Trembling", Tang Xiaojun went to the ground, but unexpectedly heard some very strange sounds.
He didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly leaned up, but he couldn't hear anything, which made him realize that the sound should be coming from the earth, and quickly lay down again, and sure enough, this strange sound sounded again, and when he attached his ear to the ground, this sound was even more obvious.
It was like the sound of something crawling.
It can't be a bug, right?
Tang Xiaojun felt a little furious in his heart, because this sound really sounded like there were a large number of insects crawling, so he quickly stood up and looked around.
Relying on the bright moonlight, Tang Xiaojun felt that his sight was still okay, but after looking around, he found nothing.
Just when Tang Xiaojun was puzzled, he suddenly used his afterglow to see a black shadow on his side, but when he looked over, it disappeared again.
"Huh!"
Another black shadow appeared, this time, Tang Xiaojun was prepared in his heart, turned around very quickly, and finally saw its general appearance.
To Tang Xiaojun's surprise, looking at the appearance of this black shadow, it was not a beast, but a person.
It's sneaky, and it's not a good thing at first glance.
"Who is it? Come out to Lao Tzu. Tang Xiaojun frowned and shouted loudly.
After waiting for a few minutes, but there was no movement, Tang Xiaojun shook his head helplessly, and didn't care about him, then took out his backpack, and took out a few leather bags from the bag.
These are specially made to hold water, and when they finally encountered water sources, Tang Xiaojun was naturally ready to fill them.
Tang Xiaojun just bent down, but he was startled, and suddenly jumped into the water, and at the same time, a person suddenly appeared behind him.
"Who the fuck are you? Why did you sneak up on me? ”
Tang Xiaojun was furious and scolded him sharply, if he hadn't been wary just now, I am afraid that he would have been hit in the head, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
This person has a long beard, and he looks very ordinary, and when he saw that his sneak attack failed, he seemed to be a little surprised, and he was a little flustered, but he reacted immediately, turned around and ran.
By the time Tang Xiaojun came out of the water, this person would have no shadow for a long time.
