Chapter 1293 Don't Give a Drop of Water (1)
"I'm afraid it's impossible to go directly. The end point of my grandfather's road map is only very close to the Black Desert, but the exact distance can only be confirmed after we get there!"
Zhuo Qunfeng explained.
"I remember you said last time that the reason why your grandfather and the others returned halfway was because of a big sandstorm, right?" Chen Xiaobei asked.
"Yes!"
Zhuo Qunfeng nodded, and said: "There are no trees in the desert, and the wind is not hindered in the slightest. A sandstorm is like a stormy sea, more terrifying than a huge tsunami!"
"Giant sand mountains will be blown away. Once a person is buried, even with our cultivation, there is only one way to die!"
As soon as these words came out, Luo Puti's face changed slightly, you know, Zhuo Qunfeng and Chen Xiaobei are almost 100,000 combat strength, even they are dead end, how terrible the sandstorm must be!
"The weather is so good, and it's not the windy season, so there shouldn't be any sandstorms, right?" Chen Xiaobei looked at the sky and said.
"Theoretically not, but in practice, no one can guarantee it!"
Zhuo Qunfeng said: "The name of this desert is 'Taklimakan', which translates into Chinese as 'There is no return'!"
"My grandfather said this is a restricted area for humans! The people in Xijiang say this is a place abandoned by the gods and has been occupied by demons!"
"The deeper you go, the more things that can't be explained by science will happen! Even if it's such a good weather, you must not take it lightly!"
As soon as these words came out, both Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti nodded involuntarily.
Especially Chen Xiaobei, who was more vigilant.
Because, Chen Xiaobei had heard Yue Changkong talk about the Black Desert before, and this is the largest mobile desert in China.
The wind blows up a sandstorm, and a sand mountain can be blown in. Once an ordinary person is swallowed, it will be like falling into a swamp. The more they struggle, the deeper they sink!
Back then, there was even a land fairy buried alive by sandstorms!
Thanks to Zhuo Qunfeng's grandfather and the others, they retreated in time. If they resolutely refused to leave, they would all have died there.
"Are you ready? If you are ready, follow my steps and set off!"
In front of the team, the grandson of the great elder of the Kunlun Sect gave orders directly, and led the team to march towards the end of the road map.
The team leaders should have been Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Dingao.
However, after what happened last night, even though they had explained it to everyone, they still couldn't hold back their face and huddled in the middle of the team, keeping a low profile.
Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti intentionally hung at the back of the line, and didn't intend to have too much interaction with other people except Zhuo Qunfeng.
It's the best result to not speculate and take care of yourself.
...
The journey in the morning was very smooth.
According to the set goal, everyone arrived at the first water supply point in the road map!
According to the records of Grandpa Zhuo Qunfeng, there should be an oasis here, which can replenish fresh water.
However, although the journey went smoothly, what was not smooth was that the water source here had dried up, and only some dried and dead plants could be seen, which proved that there was indeed an oasis here.
The world is changing, the vicissitudes of life, especially in the desert, one thing today, and another when there is a gust of wind tomorrow.
impermanence! This is the best synonym for liquid desert!
"All core disciples, immediately check the fresh water they are carrying to see if it is enough for a few days!" the Grand Elder's grandson, Fang Lingxi ordered.
As soon as this statement came out, the sixteen core disciples of the Kunlun Sect and the Xingxiu Sect untied their functions one after another and began to check.
This trip did not use camels, everything was carried by these core disciples.
Except for tents, dry food, and drinking water, I only brought seven days' worth.
Zhou Xiaokun's group of third-generation ancestors not only didn't recite anything, but also wasted water so much that they used up almost three days' worth of water in just one and a half days!
"Report to the second senior brother! The fresh water can be used for about four days!" A core disciple came to report and said.
Fang Lingci frowned slightly, and ran to tell Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Dingao about the situation.
"Young Master Zhou! My Xingxiu Sect is here to help, not to suffer. If there is no water, I will not accompany you!" Ding Dingao said.
"Isn't there still four days left? Ao Shao, what's the rush?" Zhou Xiaokun said in a deep voice, "It's really not possible, I just give you a part of the water from the Kunlun Sect!"
Fang Lingxi frowned and asked, "Senior brother! We also need water, how should we divide it?"
"Let the core disciples below drink less water, and use one day's water for three days!"
Zhou Xiaokun thought for a while, and then said: "Also, don't give those surnamed Chen and Luo any more water! Not a single drop! Allocate two days' worth of water to the Xingxiu faction!"
"This..." Fang Lingchu was taken aback for a moment, obviously feeling something was wrong.
"What is this? Without the help of the Xingxiu Sect, what should I do if I encounter poison in the future?"
Zhou Xiaokun said very forcefully: "Whoever has doubts, you can let him come to me and talk!"
"Yes..." Fang Lingci had no choice but to nod and leave.
In the Kunlun School, Zhou Xiaokun, the young master and elder brother, has always been domineering and domineering, and no one dared not listen to him.
"Ao Shao! Are you satisfied now?" Zhou Xiaokun asked.
"Satisfied! Very satisfied!"
Ding Dingao grinned, and said, "Even if it's to see Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti suffer, I still want to stay! I'm really curious, if there is no water in the desert, will they kneel down and beg us? Hehehe ..."
"Oh, even if you beg me, I won't give them water! Unless Luo Puti lay naked on my bed! Otherwise, I won't give them a drop of water!"
Zhou Xiaokun raised his eyebrows, and said with an arrogant smile, "Play if you can afford it, and get out if you can't!"
"Yes! You're right!" Ding Dingao sneered and said, "They want to play with us, but they're a little too tender!"
...
the other side.
Zhuo Qunfeng found Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti with a sad face.
"What's wrong? You have a bitter face?" Chen Xiaobei asked.
"Eldest brother has ordered that from today on, you are not allowed to give fresh water..." Zhuo Qunfeng said disappointedly.
"What! Don't give us water? How can this work?" Luoputi panicked immediately.
If it is someone else, just turn around and retreat when there is no water.
Keluoputi couldn't do it, she held her breath, she was going to enter the Black Desert, how could she give up halfway?
The point is, Zhou Xiaokun and his expedition team have done a lot of research and preparation in addition to the road map!
Many unknown points can only be learned by following them.
When Chen Xiaobei agreed to act with Zhuo Qunfeng back then, he actually took a fancy to this.
If you want to find the Black Desert smoothly, you can't leave the team now.
However, if you don't leave the team, you won't have water!
The situation became a dilemma, and Luo Puti panicked completely.
Chen Xiaobei instead had an expression of indifference, and said, "If you don't give it, you won't. They won't have water later, so don't beg me!"
