Chapter 195: Hold on to Hope
Just when the three of them were about to fall into despair, suddenly something seemed to fall on Kun You's face, and when he touched it with his hand, he felt that this thing was very viscous and very wet. Looking at his hand, Kun You suddenly stood up, stared at the desert in front of him for a long time, and said to the martial brothers: "We can't give up yet!" There may be water ahead, and if there is water we won't die, let's go! He didn't explain too much to the martial arts brothers, and immediately dragged his tired body to the colonel
Seeing this scene, the two brothers of the martial arts family glanced at each other and hurriedly followed. They are here to protect Wang Sun's safety, Wang Sun will stop if he wants to stop, Wang Song will leave if he wants to go, even if he dies, as long as he can complete his mission, he will stretch out his hand to show the two brothers while hurrying, Wu Lie looked carefully, and saw that there was bird droppings on it. Seeing this scene, Wu Lie's eyes widened and asked, "Wang Sun, it's just bird droppings, why are you so excited?" Wu Tong also looked at Kun You suspiciously.
Kun You patiently explained: "That's good, it's guano." If you think about it, a bird is a living creature, and if it is a living creature, it has to drink water, and if there is no water nearby, the bird will not be able to fly to the place where it is. Therefore, there must be a water source nearby, and generally where there is a water source, there must be people active, so we still have it, as long as there is a little hope, we can't give up! As he spoke, he quickened his pace again, and the martial brothers also had hope in their hearts.
Not long after the two of them walked out, the spy, who was tailgating, also went up to the swamp shore. When he saw the vast desert, he was at a loss, because when he saw the footprints on the lin, he only heard him say to himself: "These three people shouldn't be crazy, right?" There is an endless desert ahead, and if you are still walking forward, what is this going to do? For a moment the spy hesitated, he didn't know where to go. Although Kun You and the three of them had a problem with their brains, he knew in his heart that Kun You was not a person who killed himself. How could the prince and grandson of the dignified megalithic empire, the future heir to the throne, be an idiot?
But for a while, he couldn't decide whether he should continue to walk into the depths of the desert, and if he lost his way, he might really die in the desert. He wanted to go back, though it was as troublesome as the beast forest through the swamp, but at least he knew what lay ahead, and that was the direction home. But as soon as this idea appeared, it was vetoed, and the king of the Riverside Empire, Eagle Night, was an extremely cruel person, he let himself secretly follow Kun You, and if he gave up halfway, he probably wouldn't have a good end, and maybe he would go back to face death after all the hard work. In the end, the spout's eyes fell on the three rows of footprints on the desert, and after pondering for a moment, he gritted his teeth, and decided to follow Kunyou Sanrao's footsteps to the depths of the desert, so that he seemed to have a better chance of living.
The three of them walked in the desert for three more years, and after the three of them, just when the three of them wanted to give up again, Wu Lie suddenly shouted: "Wang Sun, look, is there a meadow in front?" Do you think it's a green meadow? ”
The listless Kun You also came to his senses this time, and when he looked up, he saw that there was indeed a green patch in front of him. Seeing this scene, Kun You couldn't help laughing out loud, only to hear him: "Hurry up, there must be a water source ahead!" As he spoke, he rushed forward in one step and two steps, and for the three of them, the green in front of them was their own hope.
When they got closer, they found that this was a huge grassland, with flowers blooming and butterflies flying, a scene full of life. Kun You let out a sigh and lay down on the grass and said, "I'm just swamping on another continent, do you believe it now?" There must be water in this meadow. Out of this grassland, maybe it's another country, and we're finally out! He suddenly looked left and right, lowered his voice and continued: "We are not allowed to be in another country, from now on, we must be careful, and we must not let others find out about us." ”
Hearing this, the two brothers of the martial arts family looked around vigilantly and nodded. The three of them rested for a while, and then walked again, this time halfway through the sight, they could see a wide river. The three of them wanted to run to the river excitedly, but when they arrived at the river, they were dumbfounded again. I saw that there was a thick layer of ice on the surface of the river, and Sanrao's face couldn't help but be a little strange. I found the water, but it took a bit of effort to get it into my stomach. The two brothers of the samurai family were in charge of fetching water, but Kun You was sitting by the river, looking at the other side of the river with a stick of grass in his mouth. On the other side of the river is a very huge snow-capped mountain, yes, a huge snow-capped mountain!
Kun You's brows couldn't help frowning again, he was now more and more sure that he was on another continent, but would there really be a country or tribe in such a cold place? He now finally understood why there was such a large area of meadow between the snow-capped mountains and the desert. This is the result of the two forces canceling each other, the desert is hot, but the snow-capped mountains are extremely cold, and the impact of cold and heat on each other creates a place that is as warm as spring, full of life, birds and flowers.
Digging ice to get water may take some effort for ordinary people, but for the samurai brothers, it is extremely simple. Both of them were military generals, and they both carried large swords at their waists. It doesn't take much effort to turn the ice into ice slag and put it in a water bag. The three of them ate dry food with ice water, and after eating and drinking, they did not rush away, but returned to the grassland to sleep.
This night, the three of them slept until noon next to each other, and their spirits were much better. Coming to the river again, Kun You looked at the snow-capped mountains on the other side of the river, and was silent for a moment and said: "It is possible to go to the place where we want to go after turning over the snow-capped mountain on the opposite side, and of course there may be no cherry blossoms" After speaking, Kun You looked at the martial brothers and said with a wry smile: "We have already reached this point, and we can only move forward." It's much better now than before, at least we're not dying of hunger, we're not dying of thirst. It's just a snowy mountain, and it can't stop us. ”
Wu Tong nodded when he heard this: "Wang Sun doesn't have to worry, we are your guards, we will follow you wherever you go, and there will never be any complaints!" "No matter what empire the military generals are loyal to, especially the king's personal generals, absolute loyalty, is a person who can be entrusted with his life.
Kun You didn't have anything more, but it made people feel outside. The river was frozen and very thick, even though the three of them were larger than the people of Daqian, but there was no problem at all when they walked on it, and soon the three of them crossed the river, and finally reached the bottom of the snow-capped mountains before sunset. Since Kun You had made up his mind, he would not hesitate at all, and the three of them quickly climbed the snowy mountain. The people of the Boulder Empire are very strong, and the speed of climbing the mountain is also very fast. It took two efforts for the three of them to finally climb to the top of the snow-capped mountain, but when they reached the top of the mountain, the three of them froze, and on the other side of the mountain was a huge plain, and there were faint buildings on the plain.
