Chapter 552: Oil
But she endured it - because Wu Nini knew very well not to vomit.
That will only lose more water in the body.
Even though these things taste so bad, they are not enough to drink.
She hadn't seen a cactus for three days in a row. The plants she occasionally saw were either dry or couldn't squeeze out any moisture.
As for urine…
When a person is thirsty, urine, whose main component comes from water in the body, will become quite small.
From yesterday to now, they haven't even pooped at all.
There was plenty of food. Before entering the desert, Wu Lili collected a lot of cans and instant noodles and put them in the car.
But now, she is trying to keep her food intake as low as possible, and she always chooses things that are not salty.
For example, eat instant noodles dryly.
After all, eating salty food will only speed up dehydration.
That will make you thirstier and more uncomfortable.
Canned soups are generally salty. It would be better not to drink them at all.
But there is one canned exception: precious canned fruits.
There's a lot of sugar water in there.
Sugar can also cause thirst, and these canned fruit soups are not as hydrated as normal water.
But you can still drink it.
But she only got one can of this can - yellow peach. There was half-cut yellow peach pulp floating in it, which was very tempting.
That canned food had been eaten by them a long time ago. This was to supplement Yi Xing's nutrition.
The vitamins in the pulp can enhance the patient's resistance to some extent.
Wu Nini couldn't help but ate a piece of fruit pulp.
But the rest was left to Yi Xing. She ate instant noodles every day.
I can endure it...
Wu Nini encouraged herself in her heart.
I can bear it.
I want to return to my master alive...and I must let Yi Xing meet his master!
Today I have to find enough water for many days and fill up the water tank responsible for cooling.
Of course...you still have to find the oil.
We have used the last barrel of spare gasoline.
When the fuel gauge reaches zero, the car becomes a complete display.
...Walking in the desert on foot is a dead end. Without air conditioning, they can't survive even half a day.
Wu Nini unscrewed the kettle eagerly and looked at the spout, filled with the urge to drink them all in one gulp.
But she didn't do that after all.
It is difficult to resist this biological instinct.
However, in her opinion, the sick righteousness needed the water far more than she did.
I have to feed him water...
...but, I am so thirsty. I feel like there is no saliva left in my mouth.
After a while, I have to go find water...
…
Take a sip.
Just one bite.
Wu Nini thought so, carefully holding the kettle with both hands, tilting it slightly, letting the only little water flow to her lips.
The way she held the kettle was as pious as if she was holding her own life.
Although she had made up her mind to take just one sip, she still couldn't bear it in the end.
Wu Nini just let the water touch her lips, slightly moisturizing the dry surface, and then put the pot down again.
Yi Xing also hasn't drank water for more than ten hours. He must be very thirsty and sad.
"Asleep? Wake up." Wu Nini pushed his shoulder gently: "Drink some water."
However, Yi Xing, who was leaning against the car door with his head bent toward the glass, did not respond.
When she encountered this kind of situation before, she would be very nervous, fearing that he might die.
But now, Wu Nini could calmly and gently turn Yi Xing's face, and immediately understood that Yi Xing was just unconscious.
He had his eyes open and his breathing was steady.
Didn't pass out. Didn't fall asleep either.
But his eyes were dull and he couldn't react at all, and he couldn't even speak.
Fortunately, there are still instinctive reactions.
Therefore, there is no need to pour water at all. As long as the kettle is tilted to his mouth, Yi Xing will subconsciously drink the extremely sweet water in one gulp.
Like anyone who is thirsty, this is simply not enough.
Those dull eyes also showed some emotion - they revealed desire.
The desire for sweet, clear water that fills the belly.
"Sorry... there is no more. I have to find water and gasoline." Wu Nini screwed on the lid and said these words to Yi Xing, not sure whether he could hear them. Her tone was full of worry and tenderness: "Wait for me here.
Don't run around. I...will definitely come back safely."
After Wu Nini said this, she fastened the two waist pots to her waist, put all the empty water bottles and the glass jar containing canned yellow peaches in her backpack, and carried them on her back.
And all the gasoline barrels were tied to her body with ropes as much as possible. The remaining two were carried in her hands.
Because she carried too many empty buckets, Wu Nini's body made a clanking sound every time she took a step.
But fortunately, they don't weigh much. They won't add too much burden.
The sunshine after two o'clock was far less harsh than before. But the heat wave outside still almost made Wu Nini faint.
She felt that everything in front of her was distorting and deforming in the heat.
Wu Nini actually didn't know where to find water.
But she knew she had to park here.
Because where she parked her car, there were towering rocks.
It is extremely conspicuous in this endless sand dune with little difference.
This means that she will not easily get lost when she comes back. With the help of the compass, she can successfully find Yi Xing.
I don’t know when I will find such a high landmark next time.
So even if she got off the car at a place where there wasn't even a mirage as far as the eye could see, which meant she had to walk for a long time to find the water... she had to do it.
Hmm, this temperature... my body is so dehydrated that it's hard to even sweat... my tail just accidentally hit a rock and was almost scalded!
...I hope I won’t suffer from heat stroke. I don’t want to die here... If I die, I won’t be able to see my master and Wu Lili. No one will be able to protect Yi Xing...
I really want to take off my clothes, can it be cooler? But it will cause sunburn... and the water will evaporate faster...
Water… Speaking of water…
...so thirsty.
So thirsty...
If you want something to drink...anything is fine.
I hope there is water nearby, if not, a cactus will do...
The moisture on Wu Nini's lips was dried almost the moment she got off the car.
Even though she reluctantly kept licking her cracked lips, hoping to absorb some moisture, it was still a miracle that could not happen.
She felt that it would be nice if the master was around.
This will open their otherworldly house.
Then there is water to drink.
Although the water inside is not unlimited and relies on magic materials for energy... the magic power stored inside can still supply tap water for a while.
At least, it should be enough for two people to drink before leaving the desert!
At this time, she really hoped it would rain.
But that miracle is much more ridiculous than trying to lick these dry lips to get some moisture on the tip of your tongue.
At least, these chapped lips will bleed if they are licked hard. That can be considered as taking in some water. It is just a loss of blood.
