Chapter 158: Ostrich
"So long?"
I didn't expect that there had been no rain for almost half a year, and thinking of the people I had just seen, all of them were yellow and thin, and they could even count the ribs on their bodies, Bai Yumo's heart suddenly rose with compassion.
"Well, in the past, our oasis was also a paradise. The tribesmen have lived here for hundreds of years, and there has never been a situation where the river has broken and the riverbed has sunk.
I don't know what the reason is, the amount of water in the river has been getting smaller and smaller in recent years, and this year the riverbed is about to bottom out. ”
In Curry's heart, he always thought that it was the people of the tribe who collided with Lord Luna, which led to such a catastrophe.
"The climate in the past two years has indeed been abnormal, not only for you, but for the whole world."
Qin Fan pondered for a while, leaned his hand on the edge of the table and gently tapped the table with his fingers, climate change also has a lot to do with human activities in the world.
"Let's go out and have a look in a moment, Grandpa Curry, you can eat an apple and drink a glass of water."
Bai Yumo put the backpack behind him on the stone table, and an apple came out of it and put it in front of Grandpa Curry, and the general poured him a large glass of water on the water cup on the table.
She wanted to go out and see if she could help, and if she couldn't find a water source, she would give them some prey and come back, and at worst, when everyone fell asleep tonight, she would cast a spell to rain everyone so that they could continue to live here.
If they step out of the oasis, it will be difficult to find another habitat. On the way to migration, if there is danger, the entire tribe may perish.
"This! How can this work? This is your food, I don't want it, you have to travel tomorrow, if you can't find food along the way, you will be in danger. ”
Curry was shocked when he saw the red fruit. This little girl was willing to give him her own food, and her heart was greatly moved, but he could not eat her food, because they were leaving tomorrow.
If he eats her food, he might make her hungry. He is so old, it will be over if he really wants to embark on the road of starvation, it is also the path arranged for him by the Lord God.
"Grandpa Curry, you can eat with confidence. Don't think about it, if I really run into the danger of not being able to find food later, this apple will only keep me alive for a few more hours. ”
Bai Yumo didn't give him a chance to refuse, the old man's whole body was out of strength, and if he didn't eat again, he wouldn't be able to hold on for a few days.
"Grandpa Curry, you can take it, my sister and I will do some fist and foot kung fu, let's go out and see if we can help you find some food." Qin Fan also helped on the side, and put the apple he pushed back in his hand again.
"Well, thank you. It's getting dark in an hour or two, so don't go out, for fear you'll run into wolves.
The wolves in the desert are all hungry wolves and evil wolves, and if they encounter them, it will be difficult to escape from their encirclement. ”
Seeing that the little girl insisted on this, Curry could only take the apple and thank him. Hearing that the two of them were going out to find food, Curry disagreed, because it was too dangerous outside. It's getting dark, and the wolves in the desert like to come out at night to feed.
If you accidentally encounter a pack of wolves, just the two of them with small arms and legs are not enough for a pack of wolves to eat. In the end, there is not even a bone left.
"We'll just walk around the neighborhood and come back if we can't find it."
Hearing that there were wolves, Qin Fan and Bai Yumo looked at each other and smiled, this wolf meat is also a good ingredient
"Alright then, but you must be back before dark."
The two insisted on going out, and Curry sighed, unable to stop them, so he could only let them come back earlier.
Then the two put the backpack in Grandpa Curry's room, let Grandpa Curry keep it on their behalf, and one of them put on a pair of gloves and went out.
Curry watched as the two took nothing, thinking that it wouldn't be long before they would be back.
"Grandpa Curry, what about Brother Qin?"
Not long after they left, Laril returned with half a bucket of water. Seeing that Qin Fan and the others were not in the temple, they were a little puzzled.
"The two of them said they were going out for a walk, Larryl, and they were running out of water."
Looking at the yellow and clear water in the bucket, Curry sighed, it seemed that the water in the river had bottomed out.
"Well, Grandpa Curry, my father said that in two days at most, we're going to run out of water." Larry put the bucket in Grandpa Curry's house, and despite the fact that there was only half a bucket of water, it was life-saving water at the critical moment.
"Eh, Larryl, come here, here's here, eat it."
Knowing what came to mind, Curry could only shake his head. He turned around and cut the apple he had just given Bai Yumo in half and gave him half of it.
"Fruit? Grandpa Curry, I can't ask for it, you keep it for yourself. ”
It was the first time for Laril to see such a red fruit, it had grown so big, he had only eaten the fruit of a cactus, and the fruit of a cactus tasted average, and they usually couldn't find anything to eat, so they would go to the cactus fruit to attack.
"Eat quickly, obedient." Curry shoved the apple into his hand and told him to eat it quickly, there was only one fruit, and it would not be good if it was seen by others, after all, everyone was starving right now.
"Okay, okay, thank you Grandpa Curry."
Larry, too, was worried about being seen, so he took the fruit and devoured it. Although it was only half a fruit, after being eaten by him, he obviously found that his physical strength was gradually recovering. But he thought he was too hungry and didn't think much of it.
Curry was surprised by the taste and efficacy of the fruit, which allowed him to gradually return the strength he had lost to his body. Although I am still hungry, I obviously don't feel very weak or detached.
I didn't expect that little girl to give him such a precious fruit to eat, what a beautiful little girl.
Here Bai Yumo and the two of them walked very fast, and found a lot of drought-tolerant plants that could be eaten along the way, and the two of them made a lot, and when the time came, they could cook a lot with sweet potatoes and potatoes, which was enough for everyone to share a bowl.
After collecting edible plants, the two headed in the direction of no man's land, until it was almost dark, when they finally found traces of wild animals.
Not far from them, several wolves were hunting two ostriches, the ostriches were very large, bigger than the wolves, but the wolves were carnivores, so the ostriches had to be eaten.
By the time they approached the wolves, one ostrich had already fallen to the ground with serious injuries, and the remaining one was still struggling, and it was not long before he fell to his death.
Just when the wolves were about to feast, Bai Yumo and Qin Fan appeared, and the wolves saw that the two people who suddenly appeared had a bad feeling, and immediately took a step back.
Bai Yumo looked at the two ostriches on the ground, it should be a male and a female, and they should add up to five hundred catties. With so much meat, you can take it home and let everyone have a full meal.
