After an hour or so, the big man suddenly stopped, wiped the sweat on his face and scolded, "Damn, no, I'm sunburned, why is it so hot?" It's almost time to catch up with the Flaming Mountain. ”

"yes, it's getting hotter, it's like a stove." Junko's face was flushed, his eyes were discolored, and he was a little dizzy from the sun.

I grabbed him and asked, "Would you like some water?" ”

Junko shook his head blankly, and said weakly, "My whole body is hot, it's useless to drink water, and I don't have much water, so I can't waste it." ”

Jenny and Li Xin were also a little sluggish, and the two of them almost dragged their feet forward, as if they were chained under their feet, and their pace was much slower than before, and every step seemed very heavy.

And the few people under Martin are not good, they are almost tired and lie down, they are staggering when they walk, and they may fall to the ground anytime and anywhere, but Shaoyu is still strong, and he has been gritting his teeth and persevering.

"Captain, captain, I can't stand it, I feel like I'm going to die in the sun." A Malaysian sailor sat down on the yellow sand, but in a matter of seconds, he got up again with a scream, "Oh my God, it's burning me, this sand can burn people, captain, what should I do?" ”

"Yes, Captain, we'really... It's really not good, it's worse than death. The other sailor shouted, and then he fell down on the desert, but because the yellow sand was so hot, he was so hot that he rolled back and forth, as if a needle had pricked him underneath.

Martin hurriedly ran over, pulled him up and shouted, "You get up for me, this will burn you, hold on, hold on." ”

The Filipino looked a little dazed, "The captain can't stand it, he can't stand it, he has no strength in his body, and he feels like he's dying." ”

Martin hurriedly shouted forward, "Mai Lao, are they all gone?" What can I do? ”

Jiao Ba gritted his teeth and shouted, "Let everyone hold on a little longer, this is the most painful part of the journey, and when you reach the palace, it will probably not be so hot." ”

"I know what you're talking about, but what now? They can't even walk. "Martin is a little dumbfounded, all the people under him, except for less, are all paralyzed, Li Xin and Jenny on our side, as well as Junzi and the big man, are also dying, this kind of high temperature is not something that people can withstand at all.

Mai Lao ran over in a few steps, "Hurry up and feed them some water, Li Xin will give me the medicine box." ”

A few of us fed them a few mouthfuls of water, but the effect was not obvious, they were somewhat dehydrated, their faces were red, they were hot, they were not conscious, and they were in a semi-comatose state.

After Mai Lao opened the medicine box, he turned out a kind of ointment from it, "Apply this ointment to their foreheads, it will have some effect." ”

It's a round box with English written all over it, "What is this?" ”

"It's something like cooling oil, but it's more effective than cooling oil, it's specifically for relieving the heat, so hurry up and apply it to them." Mai Lao explained casually.

We hurriedly applied this white ointment to each of their faces, this thing was really amazing, in a few seconds, they all woke up a lot, and when we saw that this thing was so effective, we all hurriedly applied some to our heads, and each of them applied a little bit to avoid fainting in a while.

"Damn, it's finally a little cool, Mai Lao, why didn't you say there was such a thing earlier? We were almost sunburned. "I said a little complaining, this thing is really better than cool oil, after applying it to the head, it obviously feels like a cool breeze from the inside out, which is much more comfortable.

"This kind of thing has great side effects, although it is very effective, but it is harmful to the human body, it is better to use it as little as possible, otherwise it is easy to have the opposite effect." Mai Lao casually put the ointment into the medicine box again.

"How many side effects can it be? We don't use it every day. I said angrily.

Li Xin looked at me and said, "This is a chemical that can have a chemical reaction with sunlight, so it will be very cool, but at the same time as it is cool, it is actually freezing your skin, that is, the hotter it is, the greater the reaction, and the more severe it freezes, which will hurt your muscle tissue, and even be fatal." ”

I was stunned, I didn't expect the consequences to be so serious, Mai Lao got up and said, "Okay, if you can go, hurry up, don't delay a minute or a second." ”

Martin and his subordinates, after sobering up, drank a lot of water, and now the water in the kettle of each of us is basically almost drunk, and at most a little and a half can be left, of course, except for the steamed bun accident, although he doesn't need to drink water, and he doesn't know that he is tired, but his skin is seriously cracked, like a cracked rock, very scary, especially the skin on his face, which is beginning to fall.

We supported our tired bodies and marched towards the palace, I could already see the shadow of the palace with my naked eyes, but I knew very well in my heart that even if I could see it, we would still be a long way away, and this distance would be the most difficult for us, which could be called the devil's road.

Now all of us are taking care of ourselves, because we no longer have the ability to take care of others, Li Xin and Jenny are strong enough, all the way to the present, the two of them have never been left behind, I have asked them many times if they can still hold on? They were all very tenacious and told me that it was okay.

At the same time, the food and water resources of the two of them are currently the most among all of us, so it can be seen how much they can save, even I can't compare, I really admire it, if I were an ordinary little girl, I would have cried and screamed.

When we were walking hard, the complaining voice of the steamed bun kept ringing again, "What's wrong with me?" How my skin is starting to crack, oh my God, you see, I can almost see the bones. ”

Jiao Ba pretended to smile and said, "That's your hallucination, how can it be so evil, isn't our skin also chapped." ”

"Hallucinations? It's impossible, I don't feel a little heat at all, and I don't know that I'm tired, it's not right, it's not right, Jiao Ba, you have to make it clear to me. As he spoke, Mantou ran to Jiao Ba from behind and stopped him directly.

Jiao Ba glanced at him, patted him on the arm and said, "You're really fine, you're careful, this proves that your physique is good, I don't know how good it is to be tired, we're all tired to death, let's concentrate on hurrying." He walked around the steamed bun and walked on.

But how could the steamed bun give up, he caught up again and asked, "No, you have to tell me clearly, what's wrong with me?" It's not something normal people can do at all, I can't even feel my own breath, I beg you to tell me. ”

Jiao Ba was speechless for a moment, and he said hesitantly, "What am I telling you?" I really don't know, don't ask me, if you ask Brother Changshan. ”

"I'll ask you, and you answer me." The steamed bun stepped forward and grabbed Jiao Ba's collar by the neck, glaring at him and yelling.

I hurried over from behind, "I said steamed buns, can you calm down?" Now is not the time to talk about this, our lives are not guaranteed, it is hot to death here, how can you still have the heart to ask these questions. ”

"Zhongyi, I just want an answer, is this also wrong?" The steamed bun let go of Jiao Ba, looking very aggrieved, he must be very sad in his heart, his body has changed so much, no one can accept it.

Jiao Ba and I glanced at each other, and both let each other talk, but no one knew how to speak, there was no way to say this, could it be just to tell him that you were dead, this is too, right? Even if we did, he wouldn't believe it.

Just when the situation was very embarrassing, Chang Shan walked back from the front and said, "Mantou, when we get to the palace, I will tell you the truth, now we have to hurry up, we can't delay any longer." ”

"Hurry up, don't bother." Mai Lao was at the front, turning around and shouting to us.

Mantou nodded and said, "Okay, then when you get to the palace, you must tell me the truth." ”

Finally stabilized his mood, we lowered our heads, against the hot sun rushed forward, halfway we all changed two pairs of shoes, the soles of the previous two pairs of shoes, have been burned by the hot desert, the degree of the desert heat, it is unimaginable, this is thanks to the equipment we carry is relatively complete, if we just have a pair of shoes, we will not be able to go so far.

The desert areas of the world are estimated to be as hot as here, this ghost place, it seems that even the air can burn, and the whole island is like a fire, we are like falling into a sea of fire, there is no place to hide, if we can't get through, then we can only wait for the end of being roasted.

But when we were about to reach the palace, not far in front of us, I actually saw a green patch, it seemed to be a big tree, it looked like a small oasis, at first I thought I was in the sun and hallucinated, I shook my head vigorously, the green scene was still there.

I was still saying to myself, "It's over, I'm starting to hallucinate, I guess I can't hold on anymore." "This hellish place, not to mention the green plants, so far I can't even see a dry plant, and there is nothing on the whole island except yellow sand.

But soon I knew that it wasn't my hallucination, because everyone else had seen it, and even if it was a hallucination, it couldn't be everyone's hallucination, right? Even if everyone hallucinates, it can't be the same.

"Brother Yi, I saw a plant in front of me, and it was a green plant." Junko said a little excitedly.

"Yes, Brother Yi, I saw it too, was it because I was dazzled?" Jiao Ba squeezed his eyes and asked a little disbelievingly.

"I don't know, but I saw it too, and I started to think I was hallucinating, but it can't be that we all hallucinate, right?" I said in a daze, to be honest, my mind is not very clear, sweating and not talking, I feel like I am about to dehydrate, it is too hot, it can almost roast people to death.

"It's not a hallucination, I see it too, it could be an oasis." Li Xin said in front of me.
