Let Go Of That Primordial Man
Chapter 243: Entering the Desert for the First Time
When driving in the Gobi area before, Niu Xu didn't find any lakes or rivers at all.
However, since there is a thin layer of snow on the ground, it didn't cause any more trouble for him except that it was a little troublesome to use the water after the snow had to be melted away.
But facing the big desert that is about to go deep, and the desert oasis that he doesn't know when he will find it, even though Niu Xu is a complete novice in this regard; he also knows that he needs to store as much fresh water as possible.
Because it is said that in the desert, no matter how much fresh water reserves there are, it will never be enough.
So before entering the desert, Niu Xu deliberately spent half a day getting ready; although there is no water source, Niu Xu believes that the cold ice and large pieces of snow in the desert will definitely be cooler and thirst-quenching than clear water .
After a lot of work, Niu Xu didn't stop the preparations in satisfaction until he filled his portable space with snow and ice.
Anyway, with the characteristics of the portable space, even if the steaming meat buns are close to the cold ice, there is no such thing as mutual influence; that is quite unscientific, and it can make Niu Xu a lot The time is quite capricious...
After making what he thought was ample preparation, Niu Xu drove the weak chickens under his seat into the big desert full of yellow sand.
But soon, the cruel natural environment in the Tageri Desert, which Niu Xu had never been in contact with, let him know how naive and ridiculous his previous thoughts were.
The further you go into the depths of the desert, the hotter the weather becomes. However, before noon the next day, Niu Xu had to change his previous way of traveling at dawn and resting at night; It is a more effective method to go out at night.
The main reason is that the weather during the day is so vicious that even weak chickens with astonishingly thick soles often make screams of being scalded by hot sand.
As for the counterfeit military boots under Niu Xu's feet, as long as he walks on the sand for a short period of time, he will emit a strong and unpleasant smell of glue; the soles of the boots will even enjoy torture like torture. .
If the luck is a little bit worse, and the hot sand slides into the boots unfortunately, the wonderful feeling is really quite ecstasy.
So starting from noon that day, Niu Xu found a shady sand dune and propped up his tent; he had to wait until the evening, when the temperature dropped rapidly and did not stop until it dropped below zero , taking advantage of the moonlight to keep on going...
For Niu Xu, the weather had only a small impact; what was more serious was the attack of poisonous insects that could not be guarded against.
On the surface, there is nothing on the sand as far as the eye can see. Niu Xu will be as excited as he was when he was a child during the New Year if he is lucky enough to see one or two cactus-like plants.
However, who can tell clearly why there are so many poisonous insects lurking in the hot sand, and how they survived tenaciously.
There are many poisonous insects such as patterned spiders as big as washbasins and sand scorpions with sharp barbs on their tails. They hide silently under the sand. Suddenly jumped out and launched a ferocious attack.
Such an attack was quite hard to guard against, even though Niu Xu was very careful along the way, he was still bitten by a huge sand scorpion.
Afterwards, Niu Xu quickly treated the wound and drained the poisonous blood; he also used a lot of Chinese herbal medicine for oral and external application, and the injured calf was still bruised and swollen for three days.
Of course, these sand scorpions are not without benefits, at least for Niu Xu, the taste of these huge sand scorpions is quite refreshing after being fried in soybean oil, and with three or five servings, it can make people feel better. He had a full meal with the weak chicken.
In addition, Niu Xu also collected highly poisonous sand scorpion tails and patterned spider poison sacs, these things are not only excellent Chinese medicinal materials, they are even indispensable in many witchcraft formulas a material...
*****
On the seventh day after entering the desert, Niu Xu had already discovered that something was wrong.
Because, according to the information he inquired before, even if the caravan travels at a much slower speed, it will reach the first oasis along the way about five days after entering the desert.
But according to Niu Xu's speed, he had gone deep into the desert for no less than two thousand miles, but he didn't even see a shadow of the oasis.
After a wry smile, Niu Xu could only grit his teeth and keep going; he knew in his heart that such a situation was actually a normal phenomenon.
Compared with the huge Tageri Desert, the small oases on it may only be as small and inconspicuous as the sesame seeds on the sesame seeds; without a guide who is familiar with the place to lead the way, it will be easy for him to find it. A performance of shit luck.
But it is impossible to go back the same way, that would only be asking for a dead end.
It was Niu Xu's best choice to grit his teeth and continue to try his luck; so from this day on, Niu Xu had to be extremely cautious and economical in the use of drinking water.
It's just that no matter how much drinking water there is, one day will run out. On the thirteenth day after going deep into the desert, Niu Xu and Ruoji had no choice but to quench their thirst with the few remaining Red Star Erguotou.
The ice and snow blocks he carried were consumed so quickly, the biggest reason was the weak bird; this guy was simply a huge black hole for drinking water, even if Niu Xu's drinking water management had reached the strictest extreme, every day This product consumes at least twenty catties of drinking water...
In the morning breeze, Niu Xu cautiously took a sip of Erguotou, and the hot smell of alcohol immediately filled Niu Xu's mouth, but no matter what, his burning throat felt much more comfortable.
Ah! Ah~ After a few weak cries, the weak chicken twisted its long neck and brought its big head closer; its pitiful appearance indicated that it also needed to take such a bite.
Niu Xu's heart softened, and although it was not yet the time planned to feed the weak chickens, he still plugged the wine bottle; he emphasized: There are not a few bottles of Erguotou left, so save some drinking~
Without falling behind, Niu Xu quickly took back the wine bottle in his hand when he saw the posture of the weak chicken puffing up his mouth; it was just that there was still half of the bottle of Erguotou, and now there was only a shallow bottle left. Shallow bottom.
Seeing this, Niu Xu became furious, and slapped the unsatisfied weak chicken on the forehead, cursing: I can't live this fucking day, drink it all, and die of thirst.
Then he raised his head and poured the remaining Erguotou into his mouth.
Afterwards, Niu Xu's head wobbled a little while the alcohol was surging. In this state, he drove the weak chicken over a high hill.
Then, standing on the top of the dune, he and Weak Chicken fell into a sluggish state; I don't know if it was because of their drunken eyes, they both saw a few miles away under the hill at the same time, there was a person they seemed to be looking for. Ten thousand years old oasis.
The few greens in that small oasis seem to Niu Xu to be the most beautiful scenery he has ever seen in his life...
