Chapter 157: Hope

Hongsunaibu shouted, and as the bronze knife in his hand fell, the enemy's head flew into the sky.

It was no longer known how many enemies he had hacked to death, and from morning to noon, the blood stained the oasis as if it were blood-red.

"Victory!"

I don't know who shouted, and Hongsunaibu looked, and all the enemies either fell to the ground or fled into the dunes.

"Clean up the battlefield. ”

Honsunaibu said a word to the people next to him, and then turned around and returned to his tent.

"I'm back, Ruth Marie. ”

Entering the tent, Hongsunaibu put away his knife and said to his wife, who was breastfeeding the child.

"My eldest brother, they lost?"

Ruthmarie didn't look up, and asked casually.

Hongsun Naib nodded and said, "They were defeated, and I personally cut off your brother's head." Also, I saw the body of your eldest brother. ”

Ruthmarie did not speak, but by the light that shone into the tent, Hung Sunaibu saw something shining rolling down his wife's face.

"Don't cry. You also know that this year's weather is hotter than usual, no one will survive except the Great Oasis, and war is a matter of time. ”

Hong Sunaibu had not yet recovered from the battle just now, and now he saw his wife crying and shouted unconsciously.

As a result, instead of making his wife stop crying, he simply began to cry.

The wife's cry immediately frightened the child in her arms, and the child began to cry as well.

"Just know how to cry, you cry again, be careful that Xiaosi will not live to be a year old!"

A distraught Hongsunaibu shouted, then lifted the curtain and rushed out of the tent.

Caught in the blazing sun, Hong Sunaibu's mood stabilized a little, and he sighed helplessly.

He understands his wife's grief, and the life-and-death struggle between her husband and brother is simply unacceptable to ordinary people.

However, in the sea of sand for thousands of miles, there is nothing that cannot be done in order to survive. For the sake of an oasis, it is too normal for some people to die, not to mention that this year's sun is particularly scorching, and several small oases around it have dried up.

Don't look at the wife crying now, she will forget everything for a while. After all, if her brothers came in, her husband and son would not have survived, and the sandmen have lived like this for thousands of years, and the woman is psychologically tough.

"Teacher, does God have any new will?"

Ten minutes later, Hongsun Naib, who was gradually calming down, came to a large tent in the tribe and saw his teacher, who was also the great witch of the tribe, meditating with his eyes closed.

"Naib, it's strange that His Majesty the God of the Yellow Sand hasn't sent any message, but I've received the will of another god. ”

After waiting for a full ten minutes, the Great Witch opened his eyes and said to Hong Sunaibu.

"Which Your Majesty?"

Hong Sunaibu hurriedly asked.

"Your Majesty, God of Knowledge and Diplomacy. ”

The Great Witch said with a strange expression.

"What kind of deity is this?"

Hongsunaibu is also very strange, the god of knowledge and diplomacy seems to have nothing to do with the desert.

The Great Witch also agrees with Hongsu Naib's statement, however, the oracle of the gods is not a playhouse, there must be a reason.

"His Majesty, the God of Knowledge and Diplomacy, has said that our hope comes from a goblin named Sun Licheng. If we want to lead our people to life, we need to find him. ”

Speaking of this, Dawu's eyes lit up. The content of the oracle has a name and a surname, and ten ** is true.

"That's great, Sensei, if we find this goblin, there is hope for our oasis. ”

Hong Sunaibu was also full of surprise.

"Well, go ahead, my child, for the sake of the sandman, for the sake of the oasis, go find Sun Licheng. ”

The Great Witch patted his apprentice on the shoulder, shouted encouragement, and then took out a compass from his arms.

"This is the sacred relic of our tribe, the Golden Compass. I have asked His Majesty, the God of Knowledge and Diplomacy, to bless him, and through it, you will be able to know the general direction of Sun Licheng. ”

After the Great Witch finished speaking, he put the golden compass on the ground, and all of a sudden, the golden yellow pointer in the middle pointed to the northeast.

Half an hour later, the Qingquan Oasis was in a bustle, and the camel cavalry of about twenty people was ready to set off.

In the sand sea, although monitor lizards can carry more things, they are very bulky and slow, so the sandman warriors basically ride camels.

"Go back, Ruthmary. I will definitely find Sun Licheng and bring back the hope of life. ”

Hung Sunaibu rode on the camel, shouted at his wife and children, and in the eager eyes of the people, urged the camel to set off.

At the same time, Sun Licheng and the others were still walking slowly in the desert.

"Uncle Takmu, didn't you say there was an oasis ahead, why haven't you arrived yet?"

Caroline, who was wrapped in a mummy, sat up from Sun Licheng's arms and shouted to the sandman guide.

"Almost there, there's a little oasis ahead. ”

Takmu patted the monitor lizard's head and replied with a finger in front of him.

"Oh, got it. ”

Caroline heard the answer and hid back in Sun Licheng's arms. Having said that, she is more and more fond of nesting in Sun Licheng's arms, and it is difficult for anyone to imagine that such a delicate elven girl is actually a female tyrannosaurus-like existence.

An hour later, Sun Licheng and the others stared at the oasis that had become a place of death.

"How so?"

Caroline asked disappointedly.

Takmu sighed and said: "I heard from the tribesmen that the weather is extremely hot this year, I don't care about it, I didn't expect the disaster to be so serious, it is estimated that many people will die in the sand sea this year." This little oasis is finished. ”

Sun Licheng saw the tired appearance of several people, and then thought that he didn't have much fresh water, so he jumped off the monitor lizard and walked towards the middle of the oasis.

In his mind, the vitality in the oasis comes from the groundwater, and since there is an oasis here, it is estimated that there is a dark river underground, but he doesn't know if the river has dried up.

Walking into the dry lake, I saw that the riverbed was full of large holes that had been dug, and it was clear that the natives here also knew how to find the dark river, but unfortunately it seemed that they had failed.

Sun Licheng was not discouraged, he came to the center of the lake and pressed the ground with his hand.

"What is he doing?"

Clark turned to ask the proprietress who shook his head, while Solomon next to him was thoughtful.

Perceiving it for a while, Sun Licheng stood up with a smile, and through the power of elemental guidance, he felt that the course of the dark river under him had dried up, but not far away, there was still water in the dark river.

Sun Licheng came back and called Clark, took a bronze shovel, and walked to a piece of sand.

"Dig down. ”

Under Clark's puzzled gaze, Sun Licheng picked up the shovel and it.

The two of them worked for a while, and just when Caroline was feeling a little bored, a clear spring flowed from the bottom of the pit.

"It's out of the water, it's out of the water. ”

Caroline cheered.

"Is this a miracle? How could he find water in such a dead place?"

Takmu muttered to himself.

Next to him, the half-elf's eyes showed a gleam, and he laughed in a low voice: "It's really getting more and more interesting." ”
