Upon hearing this, Chu Qing said in confusion: "Mutton? This camel caravan has been walking in the desert for some days. It is so hot during the day. The mutton has been smelling a long time ago."

Xiaojiu turned around and pointed to a camel behind him, saying, "The white bag is mutton. The people in the desert are so smart. The mutton is air-dried after being exposed to the sun. Not to mention a few days, I will not break for a few months, and I can bring more." As he said that, he put down the iron pot, turned around and took some fine dry firewood for ignition, and put it down not far from the water.

After Xiaojiu finished all this, the fifteen camels also drank all the water, returned to their own positions, squinted their eyes and began to sleep.

Chu Qing looked at it and said, "I don't know when the camel caravan will set off again."

Xiaojiu stopped what was in his hand, stood up and said, "I'm afraid they'll have to rest for a few hours, but they have walked a long way." After saying that, he looked around again and said, "Qing'er, I'll go around and look for some dry firewood." Seeing Chu Qing nodding, he turned around and walked behind the sand mountain, and disappeared into the night for a while.

Chu Qing sat back into the circle surrounded by camel cavalry, looked up at the stars in the sky, looked down at the clear water, and waited for Xiaojiu to come back. The little fat bear bag seemed to be in a hurry, and looked at the iron pot for a while, untied the bag of air-dried mutton, and crawled inside to take a look.

Chu Qing suddenly thought of a question and asked: "Bag, go to the next water withdrawal point, how far is it?"

When the little fat bear heard this, he stepped out of the bag. He took out the map seriously, looked at it for a long time, walked over again, spread it in front of Chu Qing, pointed to a small black dot, turned around and pointed to the tiny water behind him, and pointed to another small black dot.

Chu Qing understood that the first place it clicked was here, and the second place was the next drinking water point, but he couldn't see the distance from the wrinkled paper, so he shook his head in disappointment and said, "Forget it, a map that only you can understand is in vain if you ask." As he said that, he looked back at the silent camels, and his eyes suddenly fell on several shrunken sheepskin bags.

Chu Qing stood up and walked towards the camel, saying, "Bags, Xiaojiu may not be back in a while. We might as well fill these sheepskin bags with clear water in case of emergency." As she said that, she had already walked to the camel and untied the sheepskin bag.

He walked back to the clear water with the little fat bear bag, pulled out the sheepskin bag, and put it into the water to "gudu" and filled it with water. If this was in the Central Plains, when people saw the water that the livestock had drunk, how could anyone drink it? But in this desert, Chu Qing deeply understood the preciousness of clear water and also knew the importance of camels. After packing one bag after another, every time he filled a bag of clear water, he felt heavy when he lifted it up, and there was a joy of great harvest.

Although the little fat bear bag was not very helpful, it also pretended to be behind Chu Qing and ran back and forth.

After working hard for a while, all the sheepskin bags were filled with clear water. Chu Qing and Xiaopang Bear bags sat back on the ground, and were so bored that they looked up at the starry sky.

When a person calms down, he often thinks about his thoughts. Chu Qing looked at the starry sky and thought about the night in the Flying Cloud Pavilion again. The night that made him unwilling to think of it, and the night that completely changed his impression of Feng Shuzhu. Even if he didn't want to think of it, every word that came from Lin Xianniang's room that night was ringing in his ears without falling a word. In fact, she thought of many such nights, but in the end she still couldn't understand why Feng Shuzhu was like this. Maybe she had always thought of him too well. He was like this! As she thought about it, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, shook her head with a self-deprecating look, and a trace of pain rose in her heart.

The little fat bear sitting next to him seemed to see the clues. He had always been good at observing his face and colors, and he pretended to be pitiful and leaned against Chu Qing's legs. Although he didn't understand and couldn't figure out why Chu Qing was sad, it immediately pretended to be tears in his eyes.

Chu Qing sighed deeply, withdrew her gaze from the starry sky, and saw the little fat bear bags like this. She just thought it was in such a desolate desert, perhaps because many past events came to her heart, and she was filled with emotion. Thinking of this, it was really like the two of them were connected to the same fate, so she forced a smile, pretended to be strong, gently picked up the little fat bear bags, and put them in her arms to comfort her.

At night in the desert, the deeper the night, the heavier the colder the air.

Chu Qing looked around and didn't see Xiaojiu's shadow. It was difficult to find dry firewood. Yes, I have never seen a single weed on the way along the camel team. How could I find the dried firewood? But she also understood that Xiaojiu would never come back if she didn't bring back dry firewood.

A slight sound came from "Gugu". Chu Qing looked down and saw that it was the little fat bear rubbing her stomach embarrassedly. It seemed that she was crying because she had no food.

Chu Qing smiled and said, "What's so sorry about this? To be honest, I'm hungry, but those mutton and other things are not boiling water to cook. I'm afraid there is nothing to do if I cut the knife and chop the axe."

When the little fat bear heard this, he grinned and used the excuse to break free from Chu Qing's arm, rolled to the ground, got up again, took out two more green dates from the small pocket on his belly, grinned and handed Chu Qing one.

Chu Qing took the green dates, looked at them, and said, "Although this date is small, it really shows how deep the bags feel to me. Every fruit in this desert is rare."

When Xiaopangbaang heard this, he thought for a while and handed over another green date in his hand.

Chu Qing looked at it and said, "We will be happy after eating together. What's the point of giving it to me?" After that, she and Xiaopang Bear smiled and looked at each other, put the green dates into their mouths at the same time, and started eating with a smile.

Another hour passed, Chu Qing looked into the distance, but still could not see Xiao Jiu. She saw the camels still lying on the sand, but they had opened their eyes and made slight sounds from time to time. Then the camels gradually became turbulent. Chu Qing deeply understood what was going to happen. Fortunately, the leading camel was still like a sleeping parent, allowing the child who had woken up early to be restless, and still closed his eyes slightly.

Twilight, a meteor passed by in the sky, leaving a beautiful mark in the blue-black night sky. The leading camel seemed to have sensed it, opened her eyes gently, then shook her body and stood up. It shook the sand under it, raised its head, and whispered, slowly walked forward, and stopped again not far ahead. It did not look back, but looked at the deep twilight ahead, which should be the direction it was going forward. Following the second camel, he stood up and walked behind it, there was a third and fourth... When the last camel stood up and lined up in line, the leading camel screamed again and walked forward slowly.

Seeing that Chu Qing was still indifferent, the little fat bear became anxious and pulled Chu Qing's skirt corner, indicating that she would not be left behind by the camel caravan.

Chu Qing looked around and put the supplies on the ground back on the camel's back, and whispered, "Why haven't Xiaojiu been back yet? Nothing happened." Thinking of this, he said, "Xiaojiu will definitely return here when she comes back. We must leave a mark for him." After saying that, he casually untied a sheepskin water bag from a camel and placed it on the ground. The bag mouth faced the direction of the camel's caravan's far away, and the word "Xing" was engraved on the ground.

After everything was done, Chu Qing looked up and saw that the camel caravan had walked a distance. With the moonlight, she could vaguely see the outline of the last camel, and said, "We must keep up with the camel caravan." After that, she picked up the little fat bear bag, flew up, and chased the camel caravan.

When Chu Qing held the bag and stepped onto the hump of the last camel in the camel cavalry, she looked back and looked around, but she still didn't see any figure.

Under the leadership of the leader camel, the camel caravan walked at the previous rhythm again, saying that fast is not fast, but saying slow is definitely not slow, and always moving forward rhythmically at a speed.

The vast sea of ​​sand is endless. Apart from the swaying of the camel, it is the camel ringing sound that comes from a dream. It sends away the stars and moons and ushers in the dawn; it sends away behind the ringing sound and ushers in the distance.

If it weren't for the little fat bear bags and causing some strange things from time to time, Chu Qing felt that she would have been suffocated. In this desert, silence became the norm, because she couldn't see anyone, even enemies, bad people, and evil people. As she walked, she even suspected that she was a little crazy. In order to understand a dream, she had imagined such a difficult journey, and it was a journey that didn't know where the end was.

The sun was getting higher and higher, and the temperature in the desert was also rising rapidly. Chu Qing and Xiaopang Bear bags untied the sheepskin bag early and replenished some water first. When the temperature rose to a certain level, Chu Qing didn't want to speak anymore, and even her eyes didn't want to open it. It seemed that the sun was ignited around, and the sand was shining brightly, making the eyes hurt.

The little fat bear bag also wrapped itself in a white cloth, because its fur color easily absorbs heat. Even if there is a lot of water, its belly is only that big. It fills a lot of water, and even when it shakes with the hump, it seems that it vaguely hears water making a sound in its stomach. I really want to dig a hole in the ground and hide itself under the sand.

Chu Qing had the same idea as it at this time. But the camel caravan had no effect at all, and they were still moving forward slowly.

When it was the hottest, Chu Qing even felt the heat coming out of her mouth and nose. Was she about to melt? Looking at the distant horizon, the distorted horizon was distorted by heat. She pulled out the plug of the sheepskin bag, poured out some clean water, and wet the white cloth wrapped around her face. This was obviously much better. Although she knew how precious the water was, she understood even more that if she did not cool down, she would be hot immediately, and it would be useless to keep more clean water.

The little fat bear bag also imitated Chu Qing's appearance and wet the white cloth wrapped around her body.

The instant coolness made Chu Qing's mind clearer. She gradually realized that the more she walked forward, the more poisonous the sun at noon, the higher the temperature around her. She even suddenly felt that she was moving towards death?
