Chapter 158: The Lake
Lin Zi replied: "It's getting colder, to be exact, the temperature of the stones has become cooler, and I still remember clearly that when I first entered the mezzanine, although it was very cool in the mezzanine, the stones were a little warm, so what about now?" You touch them with your hands, are they different from before? ”
I put my hand on it according to the words, and I found that the stone in this section of the road is really as Lin Zi said, although it is not as sharp as it was at the beginning, but its temperature is indeed reduced a lot, and it feels very cool to the touch, this kind of coolness does not come from the surface of the stone, but it seems that the inside of the stone is cold, we all know that the stone is a temperature conductor, and the stone is cold, does that mean that the earth here is also cold?
The land has become cooler, does it mean that we have left the Tengger Desert?
Lin Zi saw that I was distracted, so he continued to say to me: "So I don't feel that we have encountered the legendary ghost hitting the wall, although it is not, but our situation is not optimistic, the temperature of the mecca road has changed, it does not mean that we have already left Tengger, and it may be that it is dark now." ”
Lin Zi paused, "It seems that the time we calculated is a little different from the above." ”
I scolded in my heart: It's not that there are some errors, it's that the errors are big, and the difference is more than ten hours.
"So what do we do now?" I asked.
"Go, of course, we will continue to move forward, since we are not spinning in circles, it means that there is still a chance to go out."
Lin Zi and I cheered each other on, but still persevered and walked forward.
By the fourth day, I was severely dehydrated, my lips were chapped and oozing blood, and I couldn't hold on, three days of non-stop walking, my body was completely unbearable, the flashlight had long been out of power, and I don't know where we left it, we are now going to eat and drink, and there is no lighting to illuminate, and now we are supporting ourselves by will.
I proposed to Lin Zi to rest, but Lin Zi disagreed, he said to me: "We can't rest, we may have reached the exit now, and giving up now is tantamount to killing ourselves." ”
Lin Zi's words may have worked, so that when I couldn't stand up in the end, I still had this sentence in my head.
When everything was exhausted, I persevered for another day, and by the fifth day, I couldn't crawl anymore, and I didn't even want to move my fingers.
I thought to myself, let's die here like this!
Who knew that at this moment, Lin Zi suddenly shouted: "Wealth and wealth, I feel the wind, I feel the wind." ”
After he said this, I don't know if it was an illusion, but I really felt a hint of wind, and my spirit was lifted, and I was about to reach the exit?
But then I fell into despair, because feeling the wind does not mean that the exit has arrived, and it may be that we are still far from the exit.
Lin Zi climbed up to me, and he said to me with a face full of surprise: "You Cai, cheer up, we are very close to the exit, hurry up...... Hurry up ......"
At his instigation, I struggled to climb forward again.
I don't know how long it took, maybe it was an hour, maybe two hours, it could be three hours, I slowly felt that the temperature in the mezzanine had changed, it became cold, it was the kind of cold to the bones, and the cold wind kept blowing over my body, although it was small, but it still gave me a glimmer of hope.
The exit has really arrived.
At that moment, my whole body was full of strength, I slowly stood up with the sandwich, staggered forward, and after more than an hour, I finally saw a bright spot, that is, the exit, it turned out that it was daytime outside.
From here, the wind gradually increased, and after walking a short distance, I saw that the stones in the mezzanine were actually covered with a thin layer of ice, and I had not seen water for many days, so I went up and licked it.
The thin ice melted quickly in my blazing heat, turning into patches of water and being licked into my stomach, and to be honest, I didn't feel ashamed at this time, but on the contrary, I tasted a hint of sweetness.
The desire to survive has taken over my heart, and to hell with any worldly short-sightedness.
Everything seemed to be no longer important, except for the food and water.
Lin Zi grabbed me, "It's all water outside the mezzanine, don't disgusting people......"
I heard him speak in a mute voice, and it seemed that he had reached his limit, and the two of us ran desperately towards the exit, one after the other.
In order to prevent blindness, Lin Zi and I endured the cold and squatted for an hour 100 meters away from the exit.
After an hour, I felt that my eyes were already able to adjust to the outside environment, I had spent too long in the mezzanine, it was time to go out for a walk, and besides, I had spent enough time in this place.
The moment we walked out of the mezzanine, I was completely stunned because there was a huge oasis in front of us.
There was a huge lake in the oasis, and the vegetation around the lake was so lush that it was strange to me that all the plants and trees here were withered, and there was a thick layer of fallen leaves under our feet, and I looked over the lake and found that there was a thin layer of ice in some parts of the lake.
Is this still Tengri?
"Lin Zi, are we out of Tengger now?" I asked.
"I'm afraid it looks like this, don't worry about it, go down and have a good drink first......"
Lin Zi strode to the side of the lake, he swallowed the lake water, the lake water is very cold and sweet, but at this time we can't care so much, first drink the stomach full.
I drank until I couldn't swallow anymore before I stopped, and I touched my round stomach and burped with satisfaction.
The stomach is cold, although there is no shortage of water now, but we lack food and warmth, the cold is not good, I plan to take advantage of the strength that surged up when I just drank enough, and hurry down the mountain, otherwise when this strength disappears, it will be troublesome.
Looking at everything in front of me, it was as if in a dream, a few minutes ago we were still in the dark road, a few minutes later we came to this majestic mountain, looking at the blue sky and the rising sun, I was able to save the depression in my heart and swept away.
But suddenly, I found that the road we came out of was extremely inconsistent with the surrounding environment, and this harmony was not the perception of beauty, but the fact that I saw something that I shouldn't see, the yellow sand of Tengger. (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
