Chapter 42: Lesson 1

The two of them, who were hungry and thirsty, stepped on the "devil's steps" all the way on the loose grains of sand and came to the lake.

Glancing at the silent oasis, Zheng Hao suddenly frowned. He stretched out his right hand and slapped the lake water in Yuwen Yan's hand.

"What are you doing, do you want to fight? Okay, come on, I'm going to convince you this time!" Yu Wenxian also started a fire. He endured all the way and wanted to calm things down, but in the end, Zheng Hao became more and more intensified. He couldn't help but curse in his heart: It is really impossible to be a widow.

Zheng Hao didn't speak, and directly ignored Yuwen Yan's left hand that was raised high, ready to hammer his chest.

Looking at the serious expression on Zheng Hao's face, after getting along together for a long time, Yu Wenyan, who knew each other's temperament a little, also calmed down. Dropped his left hand, which was ready to "self-harm". After observing the surroundings, he said with a clear heart: "Your suspicions are reasonable, and it is quiet here." ”

"It's not just quiet, it's an oasis in the desert, and it's a precious territory for animals. Whether it's for carnivores or herbivores. But you see, there isn't a single animal here. Zheng Hao hesitated for a moment and continued: "It shows that there is either a very terrifying existence here, or the pool of water in front of you has lost its drinking value." ”

After listening to Zheng Hao's words, Yuwen Yan nodded approvingly, and then said: "I think it's more likely to be the second reason, we have been standing by the water for so long, and we have not been attacked. ”

"That'...... Let's let it go. Zheng Hao suddenly said with a smile.

"Do you think that we were immune to the poison on the dagger before......?"

"Yes, since we can't be poisoned, we're still afraid of a fart. Such a big pool of water must be full. ”

"Probably...... We are not immune to all poisons. Yuwen explained.

“?”

"If I didn't guess wrong, I should have been fascinated by Fa Rong at that time. Although he was still conscious, his body could not move. This shows that we are not immune to all poisons. Yu Wenxian explained with some reluctance.

Zheng Hao looked at the lake in front of him and swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty. I tried to suppress my cravings.

Just as the two were about to turn to leave, a man in black walked out from behind the only tree in the oasis.

She applauded and said, "Congratulations, you passed the first test." This is your reward. With that, she took out a jug of water from behind her and threw it in front of the two of them.

Yuwen Xian was still hesitating, Zheng Hao couldn't wait to unscrew the lid of the pot and take a sip of water.

Without waiting for Yu Wenxian to speak, Zheng Hao took the lead in transmitting the voice in his heart: "This girl, if you want to kill us, you will already do it, there is no need to throw a pot of poisonous water over with a snake." ”

After taking a few sips, Zheng Hao did not drink the water without restraint, but re-covered the lid of the pot, and twisted it several times to ensure that not a drop of water leaked out.

The man in black, who saw everything in his eyes, had a hint of appreciation in his eyes. He bowed his head slightly and said, "Okay, my task is complete, and you can move on." ”

"Beauty, I want to ask a few more questions. Half of the other party's face was covered in a turban, if Zheng Hao could see that the other party was a beauty, it would definitely be a ghost. But he still didn't blush, and his heart didn't beat.

The other party raised his eyebrows, directly ignored Zheng Hao's compliment, and said expressionlessly: "Ask, but I can't guarantee that all questions can be answered to you." ”

Zheng Hao secretly screamed in his heart that there was a play. After sorting out his thoughts, he continued: "Then, I won't delay the time of the beauty. Listen: Where the hell are we now?"

"In the desert. ”

“em...... It seems that you are refusing to answer this question. Okay, that second question. Why are you here. Zheng Hao thought for a moment and then asked.

"Collect the bodies of the dead and reward the living. ”

"I remember that Fa Rong said at the time that he asked me to go to a place called 'Ghost Yuan' to study, but what is this asking us to do?" Yu Wenyan said suddenly.

"This is the entrance ceremony, and only those who have completed many tests are eligible to enter the 'Ghost Abyss'. In addition, Fa Rong is right, you are here to learn. And this is your first lesson. The title is: "Survival". ”

"Well, there's another problem. What if, when we woke up, we didn't go south, but went in the other direction. Feed...... I haven't finished asking yet. The man in black didn't listen to Zheng Hao's question, turned around and prepared to leave.

She waved her hand in a dashing manner and said, "I said that I would only answer you two questions." The third problem is that you are giving it away for free because of your excellent performance, and now you have run out of opportunities. ”

"You think I'm a happy! When did you say you could only ask two questions. Don't go, let's watch the replay......"

Zheng Hao and Yuwen Yan immediately chased after them, but the other party disappeared from view in the blink of an eye. The two panted and looked at each other, looking at the direction in which the man in black had disappeared, and suddenly laughed.

"Is this a hint she gave us?" Yu Wenxian said lightly.

"It could be a trap. Zheng Hao replied ambiguously.

"Whether it's a trap or a hint. But that must be the direction they want us to go. And, follow in her footsteps, although it may be a life of death. But if I don't expect it badly, and go in other directions, I may be dead. Yuwen explained it directly.

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go. When she had finished walking, her footprints were blown away by the wind. Zheng Hao laughed.

"Wait, I thought about it, maybe it will be useful later. Yu Wenxian turned his head and looked at the silent lake.

............

Under the night sky, Zheng Hao played with a transparent glove, which was filled with water. He said approvingly to Yuwen Yan: "I didn't expect you to think of this way, it's not bad." I suddenly felt a little comforted. ”

This glove was found when he was rummaging through his "box" after killing Ah Er. At that time, Yuwen Yan keenly discovered that Ah Er took off a thin layer of gloves from his hand before using his poisonous palm. He has always kept it in his heart, such a treasure that can isolate poison, of course, Yuwen Yan will not forget.

Along the way, most of the water in the pot of the two has been drunk. And it has been a day and a night, and the two people who have not eaten can clearly feel that their empty stomachs are constantly protesting.

In the vast desert, they didn't even see a single insect. Zheng Hao, who was very hungry, had the idea of cutting meat from himself and cooking it.

But he was sensible, but he still stopped himself, because in this desert where there is a lack of water in his eyes, the blood in his body is more important.

Just when the two of them were confused by hunger, a loud shout suddenly exploded beside them......
