Chapter 135 Another group of people (1)

The scorching sun, the endless desert, and there is no trace of wind.

The sun is so poisonous that people dare not look up and look up at what color the sky is.

The heat reflected from the sand bakes everything you see from afar and twists and turns.

Two people climbed up behind the dune, looking at the figure of a man and a woman, with wide white cloth wrapped around their heads. As soon as they climbed up the top of the dune, they stopped and put up a pergola with their hands, looked into the distance, and then a small animal climbed up behind them, with white cloth wrapped around their heads. As soon as it climbed up, it collapsed to the ground with exhaustion.

The woman put down her hand, looked at the little animal under her feet, and said, "Bag, have you remembered the map wrongly? No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like there is water."

When the little fat bear bag heard this, he took out a wrinkled piece of paper from his small pocket on his belly, looked at it and looked at it, nodded to Chu Qing, raised his claws, pointed to the distance, and gestured for a long time.

Chu Qing looked in the direction it pointed, frowned and said, "Where is it? It's also sand. Where did you see water?"

The little fat bear bag lowered his head and looked at the map again, but seemed to be unable to explain, so he had to scratch his scalp.

At this time, Xiao Jiu next to him said, "I heard from Yi Dingjia that the terrain in the desert changes rapidly, and the flat ground turns into high mountains, and the high mountains turn into flat ground, it's just a matter of one day."

Chu Qing looked at the tall sand dune pointed to by the little fat bear bag, pursed her cracked lips, and said, "The water intake point is really pressed under this sand dune. Even if we have the ability to be in the sky, we are afraid we can't do anything."

Xiaojiu also looked at the sand dune and looked at it. It was dozens of feet tall, which made people desperate.

The two of them were silent for a while, and Chu Qing sat on the sand, staring at the dune with empty eyes, and said, "Bags, follow the map, today is the fifth place, every place is like this. We will die of thirst in this desert sooner or later."

After holding on for a while, Xiaojiu also sat down with a "thump", sighed deeply and said, "Or, let's fly back with the sword. If we walk inside, it will be too far. Even if we fly with the sword, it will take several days. We can't find the water source. Even if we have the ability to fly and escape from the earth, we will die of thirst." After saying that, he looked up at Chu Qing, but saw that Chu Qing had no words and just lowered his head.

Even if Xiaojiu didn't say such simple truths and cruel facts, Chu Qing naturally understood it a long time ago, but she was just unwilling to accept it. She looked up at the desert in front of her, the desolate, hot, boundless, and desperate desert. She didn't expect that she was so inadequately prepared and underestimated its power. She flew over the mountains, the surging rivers, and the vast sea, but for the first time she felt defeated by the power of this desert.

The little fat bear looked at the map in his hand, looking gloomy. Its chest was fluctuating, as if it was angry and blaming itself. Seeing Chu Qing like this, he thought about it, and then tinkered with it from his small pocket on his belly for a long time, took out two sour plums, handed it to Xiao Jiu one, and thought about it, and handed it to Chu Qing.

Chu Qing took the sour plum and looked down at it. How could she not understand the principle of quenching thirst at the plum blossoms? But the cruel facts told her that even if she had this plum, it would be like a painting of a cake to satisfy her hunger. If she continued, she would be dried and thirsty.

At this moment, a copper ringtone came, as if it had brought a faint breath of wind. The ringtone seemed to come from a dream, and also from a distant past.

Chu Qing, Xiaojiu and Xiaofei Bear bags looked up at the same time, and a team of camels faintly walked over the hot desert horizon.

The little fat bear looked at it, threw Mei Zi excitedly and danced, but Chu Qing and Xiao Jiu only glanced at it, and then withdrew their eyes at the same time, and remained indifferent.

Chu Qing said listlessly: "It is said that there is a monster in the desert called mirage. It often creates some illusions to lure people to take the bait. In fact, behind those beautiful illusions is a terrible trap, which is called a mirage."

Xiaojiu took the conversation in a low voice and said, "It is said that when people are about to die of thirst, a mirage will appear."

Listening to the two of them, the fat bear's eyes became desperate, but he looked at the camels that were gradually walking over.

The camel bell sounded closer and closer, Chu Qing simply turned around and said, "Bag, don't have any fantasies. How can the camel caravan not see anyone here? I'm afraid that only that mirage can do such a strange thing."

Except for the little fat bear bag, the two of them no longer looked at the camel caravan, for fear that they would take a look at it more, just like the legendary mirage was captured by the soul.

The camel bells approached, and the camel caravan seemed to have not seen two people and one beast, and was moving forward slowly.

The little fat bear stared at the camel caravan, as if he was confused. The mirage was so realistic? As he looked at it, it couldn't help but stand up and looked at it carefully for a while. His curiosity became heavier and he finally couldn't stand the drive of curiosity and took a step towards the camel caravan.

Although Chu Qing did not look at the camel caravan, there was movement behind her and she looked back. Seeing the little fat bear bag doing this, she mistakenly thought it was taken by a mirage. She lost her mind for a moment and hurriedly got up and chased after her. However, just after a few steps, the little fat bear bag ran like crazy, and flipped down from the sand dune and ran towards the camel caravan regardless of everything.

Chu Qing's heart tightened and she didn't dare to look at the camel caravan. She just turned around and called Xiaojiu, then rose up in the air and chased after her.

When Xiaojiu heard Chu Qing shouting, she knew there was an accident, so she turned around and looked up, and also rose up and flew under the sand dune.

The little fat bear bag arrived at the camel caravan almost at the same time as Chu Qing. One man and one beast looked at the camel caravan slowly walking past, and they were stunned.

There was no one, not one, a camel caravan that was moving forward, with a total of fifteen camels, each camel carrying heavy bags. Each camel was hung with several large sheepskin bags, which were bulging, and it looked clear water inside. It made people feel cool when they saw it.

Is this a dream? Is this a mirage? For those who are so hungry that they are about to lose their lives, this temptation is too great. Who will care about anything else? Chu Qing took the pouch of a fat bear bag, turned over and flew up a camel, regardless of the thirty-one, untied a sheepskin bag, pulled out the plug, and tilted his head and drank it.

Ah! Even if this is an illusion, it is too real. I will never want to get out of this illusion.

Then Chu Qing and Xiaopang Bear untie their heads, poured clean water on their heads, then started drinking in big mouthfuls, and shouted happily.

Xiaojiu, who arrived later, was also confused by the camel caravan in front of him, but he could see and hear Chu Qing and Xiao Fat Bear bags. He was stunned for a while, and then he stopped hesitating and flew onto a camel, untied the sheepskin bag, and began to drink water suddenly.

Where can I think about any dangers or traps? Just because I am so thirsty.

Even though the two and one beast joined, even if they were shouting and screaming, each camel in the camel caravan was still in order, following one end and continuing slowly, as if they were machines without life and thinking, just moving in one direction, towards a place where no one knew it.

Riding on the hump and walking for a distance, Chu Qing and Xiao Jiu gradually calmed down, patted the camels, touched the sheepskin bag, flew up and down, and checked each camel. In addition to carrying supplies, they also found bows and arrows, iron pots, and even dry firewood for catching fire.

They realized at this moment that this was definitely not an illusion.

The two of them rode on two similar camels one after another, lowering their heads to meditate.

After a while, Chu Qing said, "Is it possible that the owner of this camel caravan was killed?"

Xiaojiu thought for a while and said, "If the owner of the camel caravan was killed, why not take away these camels and supplies?"

Chu Qing thought for a while and said, "Are they just trying to kill people?" As soon as she said that, even under such a scorching sun, the two of them felt a chill at the same time.

Xiao Jiu was silent for a while and said, "If so, where will these camels go?"

Chu Qing thought for a while and said, "Everyone said that old horses knew the way. Judging from the appearance of these camels, they often came and went in the desert. Even if they lost their masters and had not yet escaped in all directions, it seemed that they should be going home."

Xiaojiu nodded when she heard this, and looked at the direction of the camel's advance.

Suddenly, Chu Qing shouted loudly and said, "Bag, may you see the direction of this camel caravan?"

When the little fat bear heard this, he took out the wrinkle that only it could understand. The so-called map, after watching for a long time, he looked up at the dazzling sun for a while, looked down at the shadow on the sand, turned around and nodded to Chu Qing, and pointed to the map in his hand.

Chu Qing rolled her eyes and said, "You mean that the camel caravan is also heading towards the heart of the desert? It is moving in the same direction as us?"

Seeing the little fat bear nodding, although it was impossible to determine whether it was true or not. I didn’t know the direction of the Camel Corps next, but at this moment, Chu Qing felt an indescribable joy in her heart. This dream was even more beautiful than the pie falling from the sky, but it was really happening. Even if the Camel Corps appeared half an hour later, she might have backed down and returned to the Central Plains.

Under the scorching sun, I ride a camel and drink the clear water leisurely. At this moment, I feel that the sky is wide and the earth is vast, and my heart is extremely comfortable. Even the elusive yellow sand has become a unique scenery at this moment. As the hump shakes, I seem to be dancing happily, and it is more like a baby falling asleep in a cradle.

Compared with the anxiety, despair and sorrow that was before, it became a pleasure and carefree moment.

The distant and pleasant camel ringing sound is a hypnotic song that enters your dreams.

When Chu Qing opened her eyes again, the surroundings were surrounded by night, and the camel caravan seemed to be tirelessly walking under the night sky.

On the blue night sky, there are piles of stars, dazzling, as if shining gems are embedded in the sky.

The temperature around it dropped significantly, and I felt a little cold.

From a distance, the sandy mountains have become black and black, like giant beasts that have been around since ancient times, lying across the desolate desert.

It was quiet around, without any sound. Looking up, the direction of the camel caravan was moving was a dark horizon, which was connected to the starry sky, far and mysterious.

Chu Qing looked back and forth, and there was no one behind. The fat bear bag in front also woke up, leaning on the hump, looking into the distance. Behind Xiao Jiu was also awake, turning his head left and right, and watching the surrounding situation from time to time.

The hump always maintains the same shaking rhythm, which makes people admire it from the bottom of their hearts, and its endurance is so strong.

When the camel caravan passed through two tall sand mountains, it suddenly slowed down. Chu Qing couldn't help but feel alert and stood up to look away. The leading camel walked around the sandy ground in front of him, found a place and lay down. Then the camel behind followed him as he looked, and lay down close to him. The camel behind him lie down one after another. When the last camel lie down, a circle happened to form.

Chu Qing, Xiao Jiu and Xiao Bao and the little fat bear bag jumped off the hump in surprise. With the bright moonlight, they clearly saw a black sand in the middle of the circle surrounded by camels. Walking over gently, they found that the black sand was extremely hard, like the reefs in the Central Plains, and in the middle of the black sand, there was a silver light flashing with the moonlight.

Chu Qing walked forward quickly and suddenly realized that it was a pool of clear water. When he was feeling magical, a sound came from behind him. The leader camel stood up, walked slowly to Chu Qing's side, lowered his head and drank water.

On the clear and bright water surface, the cold moonlight and the shadows of Chu Qing and camels were reflected. Due to the stirring of camels when drinking water, a small ripples gently rippled on the water surface, and the shadows in the water also became turbulent, like dreams.

In addition to Chu Qing's smile, the reflections on the water also included the little fat bear bags that came to join in the fun, and Xiaojiu who walked over.

Chu Qing only felt that the camel had drunk for a long time. The huge amount of water was really amazing, but what was even more surprising was that when it walked back to its original position and lie down, the second camel also walked over and lowered its head to drink water, and then slowly walked back. Every camel in the camel fleet lined up in an orderly manner to drink water.

The little fat bear standing by the water looked at the bag for a while, and also picked up the water with its claws, washed its face, took another sip, grinned, and raised its thumbs up. It shook its claws again, took out the map, looked at the starry sky, turned around and walked to Chu Qing, and pointed to a small black dot on the map.

Chu Qing glanced at it and asked, "Bag, do you want to say that this is also one of the water intake points?"

The little fat bear nodded.

Chu Qing turned around and looked at the camels, whitened the little fat bear bag, and said, "It seems that your ability to find water is still so bad compared to these camels."

When Xiaopang Bag heard this, Xiaopang was not angry. Instead, he nodded and walked towards a camel drinking water. He stretched out his claws to pat the camel's toes to show good intentions. He knew that the camel was very unfriendly, and without even looking, he raised his huge hoof and stepped on the little fat bear bag. Xiaopang Bag was caught off guard and felt that the head was black, a black hoof covered the moonlight and pressed it down. He immediately raised his claws to cover his eyes and stood there in a daze. Just between the lines of life and death, he felt that one hand quickly dragged him away. The muffled sound of the camel's hoof falling heavily to the ground came from behind him, which was really shocking the soul. When he opened his eyes, Chu Qing was the other person who saved him.

Chu Qing glanced at the little fat bear bag and said angrily: "A little slower, you will become a camel cake. No, it is a camel stepping into a cake."

The little fat bear bag is naturally a complimentary expression, thank you very much.

Chu Qing ignored it and said, "Don't think the camel is a docile domestic animal." As he said that, he looked at the camel, who had already drunk water, and he didn't even look at the little fat bear bag and Chu Qing. It seemed that nothing had happened, and he walked back slowly and lay down.
