Chapter 2: The Magic Compass

Previous Chapter

What a sky it was! The sun was slowly setting dozens of times larger than they had in their impression, and a silvery-white star of the same size had just crossed the horizon on the horizon, shedding a piece of silver light that could not even be concealed by the daylight, and hundreds of stars of different colors also exuded their own brilliance in broad daylight, and they looked the size of half a moon on the earth. Everyone was stunned by this spectacle. At the same time, they are all aware of a problem.

"This... Where the hell are we? It's still not Earth! Sha Yi said with some collapse.

Zhu Yin took a deep look at the sky and said, "Maybe~, maybe we crossed." ”

Sun Xiaomei also echoed: "It's crossed!" There was a hint of excitement in the voice.

Little Lori looked at the sky with a complicated expression, let out a long sigh, and there was a hint of relief in her innocent expression.

Tang Yixuan touched the compass in his arms, as if he had noticed something, and suddenly became emotional, tears appeared in the corners of his eyes, and he was muttering something.

It took a long time for the five of them to recover from the shocking scene.

Sha Yi then spoke: "Although I don't know if it's a so-called crossing, or if it's just a strange celestial phenomenon, we must now think about how we can survive and how to escape from this desert!" Do you have anything like water and food on you? As he spoke, he glanced at the still shocked people.

Everyone looked at each other, then shook their heads.

"Well, that's nothing? It all came so suddenly, we didn't have anything to eat or drink, we had to find our way, and we had to collect as much food as we could along the way, and I suggested that we search the windward slopes of the dunes to see if there were any cacti or anything like that! Don't go too fast, conserve your energy, and stop when you feel a little tired. ”

Zhu Yin and Sun Xiaomei have no opinions, Xiao Lori can only follow everyone to act together, and Tang Yixuan also silently follows the team.

But the goddess of luck did not favor them, because walking in the desert is very physically demanding, they walked for more than half an hour, and little Lori was already tired and couldn't walk. After resting for a while, Zhu Yin and Sun Xiaomei walked together with Xiao Lori with one hand, and walked for about an hour, everyone was too tired to walk, but there was still a vast sea of sand in front of them.

Seeing the disc-sized sun gradually sinking into the horizon, the bodies and hearts of the five people gradually felt a little cool.

At this time, the taciturn old man along the way spoke: "We are so aimless, maybe we can't find anything, we will have to die of exhaustion in this desert, if you can trust the poor road, then follow me." ”

The rest of the people were already hungry and tired, and since Lao Dao took the initiative to bring it up, no one would object, because there was no better way at present, but to be a dead horse and a live horse doctor. Seeing that there were no objections from several people, Lao Dao took out his worn-out compass, dragged it with one hand, and drew circles on the compass with the other hand, chanting words in his mouth, with his crane-haired and childish image, it was a little interesting.

Lao Dao read for five minutes, and his head was sweating, but the compass did not react at all. Just when a few people were no longer hopeful, they saw the hand of the compass tremble slightly, and then tremble again, the amplitude was larger and larger, and finally shook most of the time, and stopped steadily in one direction.

'It's done! Lao Dao secretly said in his heart, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and regardless of the surprise of a few people, he called everyone to follow the guidance of the compass and walked about three kilometers. Just as the sun was about to disappear into the horizon, a flash of green appeared ahead!

Little Lori excitedly pointed ahead and shouted, "I saw it!" I see it! And a small lake! ”

Sun Xiaomei and Zhu Yin were also very excited, they pulled Xiao Lori left and right and rushed to the oasis, at this time, Sha Yi's brows that had been tightly locked finally stretched, and just when he was about to speed up, there was a sudden "plop!" behind him! With a bang, he hurriedly looked back, but it was Tang Laodao who fainted. He immediately picked up the unconscious old Dao, probed his breathing, breathing normally, maybe just fainted. He shouted to Zhu Yin, and together they helped Lao Dao to the oasis in the desert.

The sky gradually darkened, and the silver light finally enveloped the earth. The moon was much larger and brighter than the earth, and hundreds of unknown stars also shone faintly. Although it is nighttime, you can see far away, the oasis is surrounded by greenery, and in the middle is a small lake, which rises faintly in the moonlight.

As night fell, the temperature became colder and colder, and several people looked for some dry branches in the periphery, picked up some stones by the lake, and built a bonfire more than ten meters away from the small lake.

At this time, Tang Lao Dao also woke up quietly, and he told everyone that the gossip compass was handed down by his master ancestor, and it was said that it had the wonderful use of surveying Feng Shui, although it had never worked in the hands of Lao Dao, but he had been reluctant to lose it. On the one hand, it is to keep a memory, and on the other hand, it is also possible to pretend. Just before aimlessly looking for a way out, the old Tao suddenly felt that the spirit and this compass had some connection, so I tried it according to the use method taught by the master, I didn't expect it to be this time, but this compass seems to consume the user's spirit, just now the more I used it, the more tired I was, and finally fainted directly.

Several people couldn't help but sigh at the magic of this compass, and they all advised Lao Dao not to forcibly use his treasure in the future, and everyone hoped to rely on him and his compass to escape from this boundless desert.

Just now, Zhu Yin and Sun Xiaomei were still looking for a one-foot-long lizard in the desert, and at this time, he had already disemboweled, washed the unlucky lizard, skewered it with branches, and roasted it on the fire. With bursts of meat aroma, this lizard was already half-cooked, and everyone was extremely hungry at this time, but looking at the lizard in Zhu Yin's hand, they didn't dare to eat it.

Zhu Yin said with a smile at this time

"Bei Ye said it, you can eat it by cutting off your head, and the protein is five times that of beef!"

As he spoke, he cut off a piece of meat from the roasted lizard and handed it to Little Lori, who turned green and hurriedly waved her hand. handed it to Sun Xiaomei, Sun Xiaomei also looked disgusted, saying that she could hold on a little longer.

"Brother Sha, do you want to taste the game of this otherworld?"

"Forget it, just have water to drink, I really don't dare to eat this meat."

"Uncle Tang, come to a piece?".

Lao Dao stretched out his hand and took it, put it in his mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it. The other four all looked at him with admiration, as if he was a warrior who was not afraid of death at this moment!

Just when a few people looked at Lao Dao with admiration, in the grove by the lake, a pair of cold eyes stared at a few people, revealing a cruel and bloodthirsty light.
