The four of us gritted our teeth and climbed over a sand beam, and we saw that the mudstone was not far in front of us.

Meng Chao raised his finger and opened his mouth, but he didn't speak. His throat moved with pain in his expression, and he walked eagerly down, but his staggering steps were not steady at all, and he fell headlong and rolled down the sandy slope.

Wu Zhijun, who was next to Meng Chao, saw that he fell and hurriedly reached out to pull, but he was also unstable on his feet, and he rolled down all the way with Meng Chao.

I didn't get any better than them when I followed them, and my feet stumbled and stumbled, and I rolled and climbed all the way to the bottom of the sand beam.

As soon as I stood up, something hit me on the back, and I just wanted to turn around when I felt a hand on my shoulder, and a warm current of heat was in my ear.

I glanced sideways, Su Man also frowned and beat his spirits, put one hand on my shoulder so as not to fall, and said weakly: "It's finally here!" ”

I nodded, looking up. Only then did I notice that this mudstone was very numerous and covered a large area, and although I could not see the whole picture, I roughly estimated that the mudstone here was several times larger than the one we had sheltered from the wind and sand before, and each rock was even taller protruding from the ground.

I grabbed Suman beside me and walked towards the shady side of the mudrock. When I turned my head, I saw that Wu Zhijun was also standing up and looking directly at Su Man on my shoulder, with some jealousy and envy in his eyes.

I know what this kid is thinking, I really want to slap him with a big mouth, when has this happened, and I still have this kind of thing in my head. But at this moment, I don't care about it. tilted his head at him, "What are you doing in a daze, pick up Meng Chao and leave quickly!" ”

"Oh," he seemed to come to his senses at the sound of my words, "oh! Got it! ”

Wu Zhijun stretched out his hand to pull Meng Chao up, and the four of us staggered to the bottom of some tall mudrocks. Everyone found a shade and rushed over.

I sat on the ground, and although it was still very hot on the shady sand, it was much better than in the sun. I leaned against the mudstone, the shady side of the rock was cooler, and the coolness was transmitted to me through my clothes. It's like a person on fire jumping into the water all at once.

I sat here with my eyes closed, not wanting to move. After a while, the burning sensation in my body gradually faded, but the intense thirst still made me extremely painful.

I opened my eyes and looked at the others, Meng Chao was almost half-lying on the ground, his expression looked a little painful, Su Man was still sitting there with his eyes closed, and Wu Zhijun, who was not far away, had better energy than I thought, and he was looking at Su Man at this time. Due to the heat, Su Man uncovered his coat, revealing a black camisole inside, and Wu Zhijun's gaze just fell on her undulating chest.

I pretended to cough inadvertently, and Wu Zhijun hurriedly withdrew his gaze when he heard the voice.

I looked up at the still blazing sun in the sky and thought to myself that the only way to do this was to hide from the sun until the sun went down, and then we could move when the temperature dropped. As a matter of urgency, though, it would be great if some water could be found.

After this short break, I feel like I've regained my strength, probably thanks to the previous workouts.

I stood up and looked around, looking for a taller mudstone to climb on, and to take a look at the terrain around me, and if I was lucky, I might be able to find a source of water.

When Suman heard the movement, he opened his eyes and asked me, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Take a look around." I replied to her, and walked around the mudstone behind me and to the side.

As soon as I stepped out of the shade, a heat wave swept through my body, and I felt that my skin, which had just been comfortable, instantly felt as if it had been burned by fire.

I didn't dare to hesitate, and quickened my pace towards the depths of the mudstone, for I saw a large rock about the height of a two-story building standing in the lower part of the room. Visibility is decent now, and standing on it should be able to see a considerable area around you.

The fiery red color of the surrounding mudstone made them look like burning furnaces, and the scene made the burning sensation that was already all over the body even stronger.

I tried to weave as far as I could on the shady side of the rock, and soon I was at the bottom of the rock. I looked up at it, and found that the easy to climb positions were all on the sunny side, and at this time, the smooth surface had been sunburned like a pan on a gas stove, and my sweat beads fell on it, and the sweat did not have time to roll, and it bubbled and evaporated.

I frowned and had to wrap my hands around the clothes on my body. Carefully climbed up the slope of the rock.

Standing at the top, I raised my hand to block the sunlight above my head and looked around.

At first, I only saw the endless yellow sand, and the surrounding large areas of fiery red mudstone, with the occasional yellowish vegetation between the rocks. I really don't know how they grow in such an extremely harsh climate. I can't help but sigh a little at the tenacity of the vitality of these plants, but even if they are tenacious, they eventually die under this scorching sun.

It seems that if there is no better option, we will have to try our luck at the bottom of this vegetation, and maybe we can find some hidden water source below.

As I pondered, I changed directions and looked into the deepest part of the mudstone, and suddenly I noticed that there was a great change in the topography of the mudstone, and there seemed to be a huge depression in the center of it. In fact, it is not surprising that the terrain in the desert is undulating, but what makes my heart tremble is that I seem to see a corner of the roof in the middle of the depression through the gap in the mudstone.

Could it be that there is a house there?

Because of the angle, I couldn't see the whole picture, so I stood on tiptoe and craned my neck to look in that direction.

Unexpectedly, I only cared about what was in front of me, but I forgot what I was underfoot. Accidentally, the soles of my feet were empty, and I didn't have time to react, and the whole person slid down the slope of the rock.

The surface of this mudstone is so smooth that I can't find anything to use with my hands.

My body was tumbling on the scorching rock surface, and I felt like a pie, tossing and turning in an iron pan, and I couldn't tell where it hurt and what it burned.

I screamed and fell to the ground, but the sand was soft enough and not too hot on the shady side of the rock. I lay on the sand and didn't recover for a long time.

I angrily scolded myself for what kind of shit luck this is, I can always encounter this kind of tragedy, and what is even worse is that this time there is no second uncle around, no Lantern Festival, and no Wenmo, only a female driver and two college students who have just left school.

But a thought suddenly crossed my mind, was this encounter really just a coincidence?
