Chapter 116: The Bodyguard Team Arrives at Lop Nur
White horses and red tassels are new in color;
It's not a kiss to say kiss;
There is a horse that dies and the gold is gone;
In a blink of an eye, like a stranger;
No one asks about the poor city;
Fu has distant relatives in the mountains;
Human feelings are warm and cold;
The world is impermanent.
It is said that the dart team of the Great Song Dynasty has left Guazhou and entered the sea of sand for thousands of miles at this time. As soon as they entered this sea of sand, most of the dart masters of the Great Song Dynasty were confused. This horseback riding is different from camel riding, which is slow, and most camels are used to carry goods on camels, and people mainly walk.
Many people are not used to wearing such a big robe, and they want to untie it when it is hot, but they are quickly stopped by Haipeng. The robe is designed to prevent sunburn, which can be much worse in the desert than in the heat. There were also people who gulped water as soon as they entered the sand sea, and they were soon stopped by Haipeng. He told the dart masters that the water had to be sipped slowly in small sips, otherwise it would not only quench their thirst, but also waste water. In short, as soon as they entered the sea of sand, all the dart masters were like fools, listening to Haipeng's command.
Li Hongyuan was very glad that he had to hire such an old guide who was proficient in the way of survival in the sand sea, otherwise it would be a miracle that he could get out of the sand sea alive with his own group of people. But every time Li Hongyuan said it to Hai Wanqing, Hai Wanqing always smiled slightly and didn't say a word. But Li Hongyuan could also see that Hai Wanqing was worried, but whenever Li Hongyuan smelled it, Hai Wanqing still said that it was nothing.
The dart team walked in the sea of sand for more than ten days, and there was a long yellow sand all the way, and not a single water source oasis was found. There were people in the team who couldn't stand it.
On this day, in the afternoon, the dart team gathered in the shade of a sand dune to rest, and the god craftsman Wan Qian came over and asked Haipeng: "Boss Hai, we have been gone for a few days, and there is not even a figure." Even if there is no one in this sea of sand, don't you say there is an oasis? Why can't you see it?"
Hai Peng smiled: "I knew you were all in a hurry, but this matter is not in a hurry." ”
"Oh, why is that?" Wan Qian asked with a confused expression.
Haipeng smiled slightly: "You don't understand, there is indeed a big oasis in this sea of sand, but this oasis is formed by the water and is raised by water." And this piece of water that nourishes the oasis is alive and moving!"
Wan Qian was surprised and hurriedly asked, "Can water still live?"
The words of the two attracted a lot of people, and many dart masters gathered around to listen to what Haipeng said. Seeing that there were many people listening, Haipeng simply stood up, waved his hand and said, "You don't understand, right? This water is really alive, I have been to this sand sea three times, and this water is not in the same place three times." Again, this water has even moved less than fifty miles away from Guazhou!"
"That's a strange thing, how does the water move?" interjected a besieging dart master next to him.
Hai Peng glared at him: "How do I know, if I know why this water can move, I will go to the court to be an official, and I will be a guide for you!"
Zhan Yuan listened on the sidelines, thinking in his heart: The desert he is in now should be the Taklamakan Desert, and this moving water? I'm afraid that it will be Lop Nur in the future. He had also watched some popular science programs in his previous life, and probably knew some rumors about Lop Nur.
After hearing this, Wan Qian sighed with emotion: "In this case, Boss Hai, it is very difficult for us to find this piece of water!"
Haipeng waved his hand and said, "It's not difficult to find it." Haipeng stood up, pointed to the camel beside him with his hand, and said: "Although I don't know where the water is, but it does! This thing is naturally sensitive to the water source in the sand sea, as long as there is water within a hundred miles, it can detect it." ”
"Is this beast so godly?" Wan Qian also stood up, came to Haipeng's side, followed by looked at the camel, and said in amazement: "I can't think of it, I can't think of it......"
"Actually, since the day before yesterday, it wasn't me leading the way, but it!" Haipeng patted his Bactrian camel and said, "My old fellow is much stronger than me, and it has been in and out of the sand sea seven or eight times." It has been reacting since the day before yesterday, so I will let it go, and according to its reaction, we are only forty or fifty miles away from that water source......
"In this way, don't you want to be reluctant to seek the near and far?" Hai Peng didn't finish speaking, but was interrupted by a sharp voice. Everyone looked up and saw that it was Hai Wanqing. Hai Wanqing came to the middle of the crowd in a few steps, and said in a deep voice: "Walking by this beast, isn't it a detour to increase the trip?"
Haipeng was not afraid of Hai Wanqing at all, and laughed strangely: "Walking in the sand sea, the most important thing is the water source." If you don't take this piece of water, I'm afraid that there will be no water for more than ten days. Chief dart, can you drink water for more than ten days?"
Hai Wanqing's face was stunned, and she frowned casually: "Then you should always tell us!"
"You have to listen to me if you say it or not!" Hai Peng said with a smile: "Anyway, I took you out of this sand sea, what are you anxious about?"
Hai Wanqing glanced at him deeply, didn't speak, just snorted coldly and brushed away.
Haipeng still didn't react, so he took out a bag of dry tobacco and lit it for himself, and then took two puffs of cigarette before saying: "You guys have a good rest for a while, and then let's set off a little faster, and strive to be closer to the water, so as not to run far away tomorrow." We chased after us, and the chief dart head said I'll take you on a detour to get near and far!" Everyone didn't dare to pick up, and they went to eat and rest.
Without further ado, the dart team walked for another day and a night, until the afternoon of the next day, when they really arrived at the edge of the oasis. This oasis in the middle of a sea of sand has a unique character, a lake with sparkling blue water in the desert. The water is as calm as a mirror, and there are no tall trees on the edge of the lake, only patches of low shrubs.
Everyone hadn't seen water for more than ten days, and one by one they were ecstatic, and they rushed to the lake, drinking and washing. There are also two dart masters, who simply plunged into the lake with one fierce son.
Haipeng roared on the shore: "Come up, come up, don't mess up the water, fill all the water bags first!"
The dart masters reacted this time, and quickly took out the water bags one by one, and went to the lake to fetch water. After everyone had stored the water, they all frolicked by the water. A few of the boys even took off their clothes and went straight in and took a shower.
Since he hadn't seen water for several days, Long Yunfeng couldn't help it, but he was embarrassed to see so many people. hurriedly called Zhan Yuan and asked Zhan Yuan to accompany her along the lake, but she couldn't see anyone, so she said softly: "You look at the clothes for me, I'm going to wash in the water." If someone comes......"
"If someone comes, I'll blow it away, and if you don't leave, I'll beat it!" Zhan Yuan hurriedly said: "Don't work Woman, you do it yourself, I'll help you fight." ”
Long Yunfeng glared at him: "It's good to know, especially you, if you dare to look back, I'll gouge out your eyes!"
Zhan Yuan nodded hurriedly and turned around. Long Yunfeng walked to the lake with confidence, took off his clothes, and got into the water. Don't look at this water in the desert, but it's really cold when you get into it. Long Yunfeng felt comfortable, so he hummed while washing.
Zhan Yuan turned her back to Long Yunfeng, and when she listened to it, she suddenly hummed, and it seemed to be a small song in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Zhan Yuan smiled slightly, and thought to himself: I used to treat Long Yunfeng as a flying witch who killed people without blinking in the original book and had a strange temper, but now it seems that Long Yunfeng at this time is just a girl in her twenties. Although the temper is a little bigger, but after all, she is still a girl.
Although she hadn't taken a bath for a long time, it was inconvenient for Long Yunfeng in this wilderness, so after a hasty wash, she came ashore, got dressed, and ended Zhanyuan's fragrant task.
Zhan Yuan saw that Long Yunfeng had washed up, so he let her go back to the camp first, and he took off his clothes and got into the water to wash well. Zhanyuan is a big man, so naturally he doesn't need anyone to watch him.
Although Zhanyuan has never been able to practice water in this life, he has grown up in Jiangnan after all, and his water nature is still good. The water was cool, and Zhanyuan was also happy, so he simply stabbed a few fierce men in the lake.
When he had finished washing and went ashore, he suddenly saw a man riding a camel along the edge of the lake. Zhan Yuan looked at it, it was not someone else, it was Haipeng!
Zhan Yuan hurriedly went ashore, put on his clothes, and shouted at Haipeng while dressing: "Boss Hai, where are you going?"
Haipeng was running forward on a camel when he suddenly heard someone calling him and was startled. When I turned around, I saw that it was Zhan Yuan, and hurriedly urged the camel, and when I got to Zhan Yuan's side, I said, "Oh, it turned out to be Brother Zhan, why did you come here to take a bath?"
Zhan Yuan smiled, "It's quiet here, and it's a pleasure to wash." Where are you going, Boss Hai?"
Haipeng smiled: "I'll go to the front and plan tomorrow's itinerary." The lake is not big, so I'll go back in a circle. ”
Zhan Yuan hurriedly said, "I'll go with you." ”
"No, no!" Haipeng waved his hand and said, "I'll do it myself, you can go back to the camp quickly, and the dinner will be held later." ”
Zhan Yuan saw that Haipeng was unwilling to let him follow, so he bowed his hand to him and returned to the camp by himself.
Haipeng watched Zhan Yuan return to the camp, and then urged the camel away and walked all the way along the lakeside. I walked for two miles, and I didn't stop until I reached the other side of the lake in the camp. Instead, he moved on, leaving the shore of the lake and entering the sea of sand. This Haipeng climbed three sand dunes in the sea of sand before he stopped, because he saw three people sitting cross-legged in the shade under the sand dunes in front of him, obviously waiting for him.
Hai Peng walked quickly to the three of them, and said with a smile: "How is it?
The youngest of the three stood up and removed the hood of his robe, revealing his shiny bald head, none other than Fa Hui. Fa Hui Chong Haipeng clasped his hands together and said, "The old man has worked hard. ”
Hai Peng shook his head and said: "It's just that I don't think your plan is good, this poison is too shallow, put it in such a big lake, I'm afraid that even half of the people won't be poisoned to death by then." ”
The one on the left of the three people also stood up, took off his hood, and then said in a deep voice: "Just you old thing, this plan was made by Childe, and you are executing it, what kind of nonsense?"
Haipeng pursed his lips, stretched out his finger and pointed at him, and shouted: "Sikong Rui, don't think that you are a master when you are the head of the gate, and you are much worse than the old man!"
This person was none other than Sikong Rui, the chief of the lower five gates, and Sikong Rui was about to refute, but was interrupted by Fa Hui: "Don't quarrel, old man, let's just do what we want! ”
Haipeng and Sikong Rui looked at each other and each snorted coldly.
Predict what will happen next, and watch for the next time!
