Chapter 600: Desert Oasis

In addition to those who are familiar with the desert terrain, those who can meet an oasis in the vast desert are also considered the luckiest people. In the dry, hot desert, water means life. Without water, it is difficult for anyone to survive in the desert.

Some people call this endless desert the Sea of Death, more so because of the scarcity of oases in this desert. If you can't find the right direction, even if you walk for ten days and half a month, you may not be able to find an oasis hidden in the desert.

On the other hand, Xu Haibao and his entourage were fortunate to see this oasis hidden in the desert after a long journey of three days, which is undoubtedly a very lucky thing. Of course, to have this luck is actually brought to them by Xu Haibao.

As a Jindan monk and specializing in the water element, Xu Haibao is extremely sensitive to the water element. Especially in desert areas, where a large amount of water can be sensed, there is undoubtedly a water source.

Although water is rarely seen in the desert, it does not mean that there is no water in the desert. At least in Xu Haibao's spiritual induction, on the way here, Xu Haibao also sensed that there was a lot of pure groundwater in the desert under his feet.

Unfortunately, the groundwater that flows underground is too deep from the ground. Even the vegetation on the surface of the earth has no groundwater at all. Over time, this area will become so desolate and covered with yellow sand.

Like the Antarctic and the North Pole that he went to earlier, Xu Haibao, who walked in the desert, could also feel the presence of yellow sand as far as the eye could see. This situation is similar to seeing a white expanse at the poles of the earth.

The only difference may be that one place feels cold and another place feels too hot. Standing on the edge of the oasis, looking at the people who were bathing to their heart's content, Xu Haibao also felt that he was in a good mood, but he was not interested in swimming in the water.

Although there is a lot of water in this spring, the area that can be irrigated is extremely limited. The location of the oasis itself is a depression, and the time it takes to accumulate such a spring water is not short.

Most importantly, judging from the footprints in the sand next to the spring, it is also a place of water for nearby animals. If this spring disappears, everything that depends on this spring water for survival will face a catastrophe.

Water is the source of life, and this is also true!

Looking at Wang Yuzhu and the others who were grinning in the spring water, Xu Haibao also said in a timely manner: "It's okay to soak for a while, it's enough to have a good time." The longer you soak, the greater your sin tomorrow. It is not easy to recover from this sun-cracked wound in a short period of time. ”

agreed to let everyone go down to take a bath, more to let them have fun. Compared to before at the base, these people are quite clean. Now that they have come out to experience and have not taken a bath for a few days, these guys probably have psychological shadows.

In addition, let the dry and dehydrated skin soak up a little water to wash away the sand stuck in the cracks, and it will not make them feel itchy and uncomfortable. If you soak for too long, it will be more than worth the loss.

Hearing Xu Haibao's greeting, Wang Yuzhu also laughed and said: "When I have the opportunity to return to the sea, I will definitely soak it for seven days and seven nights." This lack of water is really uncomfortable! Head, can you get something delicious at night?"

"What's the matter? You can't beat me again? Near this oasis, you should be able to find something to eat, or you should look for it!"

"Head, it's not easy for people to survive, so why should we embarrass them! We want to eat fish, okay?"

"Okay! I really don't know, what to do with you here, obviously you are here to practice, but you are the same as the uncle. Starting tomorrow, you guys will have to work for me in addition to their training. Otherwise, there is only water and no food!"

"No problem! As long as there is something to eat, everything can be said! Brothers, at last there is something to eat in the evening. ”

Although the spiritual water is good, I always feel a little uncomfortable when I drink water every day but have no food to eat. Knowing that they didn't eat for the past three days, they were more afraid of being hungry and following the special combat team members, so that everyone endured it.

Now that the three-day period has arrived, the food that had accumulated in the stomachs of the special combat personnel has long been wiped out. Taking the opportunity to add a little secret seafood can also have the effect of nourishing the body and mind, allowing the special combat team members to accumulate energy.

I don't have enough energy to support it, and if I want to finish the next training road, I'm afraid that these special combat team members will be choked enough. Although in the desert, special combat personnel can also survive in the wild, and animals such as poisonous snakes and scorpions can replenish their physical energy.

Compared with the secret seafood that Xu Haibao carried, its nourishing effect was much worse. Poisonous snakes and ants eat too much, and the burden on the body is also great. Obviously, they are here to train, but they can't let the special combat team members return to the team with illness and injury after the training!

Most of the special combat team members who also took a bath were very happy to learn that they could finally eat tonight. Some special combat team members even suspected that this oasis was chosen by Xu Haibao a long time ago, and it was just to take the opportunity to take a break.

What the special combat team members thought in their hearts, Xu Haibao naturally couldn't guess. Xu Haibao, who took out the cooking utensils from the space, also brought out some ingredients very simply. When it comes to cooking, it is naturally not Xu Haibao's turn to do it with his own eyes.

Handing over the ingredients and cooking utensils to Tang Xingyou to be in charge, Xu Haibao came to the clear spring that became a little turbid after everyone took a bath. Both hands began to pinch their fingers, separating all the pure water elements in the clear spring.

Looking at the remaining wet mud and rotten things, Xu Haibao waved his hand, and the separated pollution sources quickly peeled off from the bottom of the spring and flew to the nearby oasis, becoming fertilizer and nutrients for the roots of those oasis plants.

In the face of this fairy-like method, Tang Xingyou and the others did not feel anything surprising. They have all seen the trick of controlling water that is greater than this battle. Controlling a pool of clear spring water, what is it for Xu Haibao?

Taking this opportunity, Xu Haibao threw out some tools and said, "Pillar, while there is still a little time before the start of the meal, you can expand this pool a little." Dig down the three-point direction, where there is an underground spring, and dig the outlet a little bigger. ”

"Good!"

Wang Yuzhu and others, who took over the tools, directly became coolies digging pools without saying a word. Looking at the spring water swimming out of thin air, the special combat team members who joined the excavation work really couldn't believe that this kind of water control method was really something that could be done by manpower.

Wait until Wang Yuzhu and others continue to dig to the bottom of the spring according to the direction indicated by Xu Haibao. What was originally just a seepage of spring water began to gush outward. Seeing the increase in water output, Wang Yuzhu and others naturally felt very happy.

More water means more water can be stored in the oasis, benefiting more flora and fauna. As for whether the increase in water flow will cause other negative effects, Xu Haibao thinks that it should not be a big problem.

The reason is that the underground river water below the spring seems to have a large flow of water. What he was doing at the moment was nothing more than opening a small opening near the dark river. This amount of water will not cause any adverse effects.

In order to ensure that this outlet would not be blocked, after asking Wang Yuzhu and others to stop digging, Xu Haibao solidified the exit hole again. As long as the water of the dark river does not disappear, the water outlet will not be cut off, and this clear spring will exist for a long time.

When the clear spring water is separated, it falls from the sky again and returns to the sand. Everyone soon discovered that the spring water was crystal clear at the moment, and even if they drank it directly, there would be no problem in thinking about it.

If other travelers who are lost in the desert can find this place, they may feel that it is a blessed land from God. Correspondingly, as the springs increase, the oasis becomes more lush.

As night fell, Xu Haibao and his entourage sat on the ground, sharing their first meal after entering the desert. Eating the cooked food, those special combat members who tasted the secret seafood for the first time were eager to lick all the soup off the plate.

"It's delicious, hehe, now you know that coming out with us, in addition to suffering, you can actually enjoy it, right?"

After three days of contact, the team members gradually became familiar with these special combat personnel who had followed and trained. In the final analysis, although Tang Xingyou and others have been away from the army for many years, they have always lived like soldiers.

When you come into contact with these special combat personnel who are still serving in the army, they are easy to get close to each other in terms of personality and style. It is precisely this kind of acceptance that makes these special combat personnel gradually return to their normal minds, gritting their teeth every time, hoping that they will not drag the team back.

It was rare to enjoy a peaceful night, and when he saw the animals rushing to replenish water that night, Xu Haibao did not alarm these animals. Through mental power, the nervousness of these animals is soothed, so that they can still replenish their drinking water in the panic mood.

Even to Xu Haibao's delight, among these animals that came to replenish water, Xu Haibao also found a group of wild camels. Select a few of them with slightly worse physique and release them into the Chaos Bead space. This animal is also difficult to see in other places.

Xu Haibao and others, who only rested in a corner of the oasis, did not disturb the rare opportunity for these animals to replenish water. Looking at the animals that came to drink water one after another, everyone was surprised to find that there were actually many animals in the seemingly barren desert.

It can't be seen during the day, more because the animals are hiding. It is only at night that they come out one after another. To survive in such a harsh environment, these animals naturally have their own way of survival.

When he set off the next day, Xu Haibao asked the others to take the desert plants that had been transplanted into the space earlier, transplanted another batch from the space, and planted them near the oasis. Subsequently, the diluted spiritual water was poured into this oasis.

Looking at these green plants rooted in the desert, Xu Haibao also hopes that there are more such oases, the better. In time, Xu Haibao believes that this desert area may also become a paradise-like existence.

Maybe what he's doing at the moment can't change much. But he believes that as long as human beings are willing to change and give, deserts can also become oases. All that is needed is time and energy.

At least this oasis in front of me has received a visit from Xu Haibao and his party. After Xu Haibao left, the area of the oasis expanded, and the area of the spring pool also expanded. In the future, it is believed that more desert creatures will be benefited.

This kind of practice can also be called accumulating merit. Even if the effect may not be obvious, but Xu Haibao feels that he has the heart to do it, then he has a clear conscience, and it is not in vain that he travels thousands of miles to the desert no man's land!
