Chapter 193 The Desert of Lonely Spirits
The Desert of Silence is just like its name, it is silent.
The wind blows up the wind and sand, and the withered grass branches are whirling in the wind. In this land, such strong winds blow every day. The surface was blown clean by the strong wind, and when the wind stopped, the sand and debris from the sky fell like rain.
This kind of strange sand rain is also a unique scenery in the lonely spirit desert.
The yellow sand and rain fell, and the soldiers could only wrap their heads with cloaks, revealing only a pair of small eyes. If you don't, they'll be covered in sand and debris in no time!
The sand tormented by the wind and sand is very hot. Although it can't hurt the warrior, it is a big trouble for the man and the cub. They were wrapped more tightly, but the heat of the desert made them feel like they were trapped in an oven.
So Chu Zheng asked them to wear loose robes, which can resist the invasion of sand and dissipate heat quickly, making them less uncomfortable.
They have been walking in the desert for more than a month. But I can't see the end of the road, the end of the desert.
Hui told Chu Zheng that the Lonely Spirit Desert is a very large desert, which should be one-tenth of the entire Nanyan Continent. Legend has it that this desert was formed after the battle between the spirits and the invading alien demon gods. It turned out that this place was also a fertile land with fertile water and grass and a large number of people.
The land here is polluted by the blood of demon gods from other worlds, so that almost no grass grows here, and many spirits have fallen here, which makes the spirits hate this place.
Pollution combined with reluctance to clean up, this is an abandoned place. But the tenacity of life can also be seen, even in such a place, there are still signs of life here, and they are all vicious creatures!
This is also the base camp of the demons, because the spirits hate this place, so the demons naturally occupy it.
It's just that in the past month, they haven't seen half of the demons, and they just hang out with the wind and sand every day, but they are also at ease.
Just in the case of comfort, the drinking water has used 2 packs of stock. Three hundred warriors, plus the same number of male cubs, totaled more than six hundred. Drinking water consumed every day is not a small amount. Including the consumption caused by drying and walking, it is not impossible to use 2,000 cubic meters of water this month.
Especially the soldiers, in this environment, the soldiers still have to carry out a lot of exploration and patrol activities, which intensifies the daily water replenishment of the soldiers. It can be said that most of the drinking water is consumed by them.
If you want to reduce consumption, you can just let the soldiers move less, but this is obviously impossible.
When one month came, Shuyuan also began to stand behind Chu Zheng again. Chu Zheng found that she was doing pretty well in this environment. With sufficient water replenishment, the leaves and clothes on her body became a little greener. Apparently it was due to enough light!
In desert places, the sunshine time is long and the sunshine intensity is high. If there is enough water, it is good for plant growth.
The sky gradually darkened, and the clansmen who had been walking for a day began to camp and rest. The temperature difference between day and night is large here. Fortunately, there are many furs, so keeping warm at night is not a problem.
It's just that there are no trees here, and fire materials are very scarce. Can't light a big bonfire for a rough barbecue. Timber is used in stored stocks, and these are also rationed.
The rough fire barbecue has become a unique cooking. Each tent has a fixed amount of wood, and then cooks and eats by itself.
Chu Zheng's "little family" did the same. He and Jie, a total of ten girls, fired together. The dozen or so girls included members of Jie's team.
A piece of burning wood is placed in the simple earthen stove. This kind of wood is brought out from Pasa Island. It is extremely resistant to burning and has a high temperature.
People here rarely eat stir-fried vegetables, first of all there is no iron pan. In addition to roast meat, they stew meat. Now that I am away from home, I seldom cook stew. If it was someone else, they threw the meat directly into the fire, and when the surface of the meat was charred, they cut off the charred part and ate it among themselves.
Chu Zheng disagrees with such a crude way of grilling meat. He wants to cut up the meat, put it on a wooden skewer and eat it! In addition, various spices are added.
The meat grilled in this way is very delicious. Now many men are forced to learn this. But how could they compare to Chu Zheng's craftsmanship.
So in many cases, Chu Zheng would have people who come to eat.
Wearing a fluffy fur coat, Xiao Doudou curled up beside Chu Zheng, staring at the skewer in his hand with bright eyes.
Xiaodoudou is an expert at making rice, can be cute, can pretend to be stupid, and has a thick skin.
"Want chili?" Chu Zheng asked.
"Yes! Put more!" Xiaodoudou said excitedly.
"I want so many peppers, you'll have to look for water to drink later! There's not much water left!" Chu Zheng teased her. For some reason, this little girl likes spicy food very much, but every time she finishes eating, she will look for water everywhere. Of course, a little girl like her can't consume much water, but she also knows that water is very precious now.
So she struggled for a while, and said in a low voice: "Then don't put so much! Just a little spicy."
Seeing her say this while holding back her saliva, Chu Zheng couldn't help laughing. He took out a red leaf, turned a pinch of it into powder, and sprinkled the powder evenly on the meat skewers.
This is a kind of leaves called the Kua Kua tree, which has a spicy taste, and was discovered by Chu Zheng to be used as a pepper. In fact, many plants here have a spicy taste. Spicy flavors are inherently painful, and those that can cause pain are basically poisonous. It's just that this bit of toxicity can't poison people, but can only bring a little pain to people.
Moreover, the leaves of the Kua Kua tree are red after drying, and a pinch of them turns into a powder that is very similar to chili powder. Because of this, Chu Zheng especially likes to use this leaf.
The other fighters sneered at the spiciness. They discovered a particularly spicy plant. This plant was soaked in water and eaten with meat. It was so spicy that it doubted life! It's just that the soldiers never tire of it.
The meat skewers were roasted in a blink of an eye, and Chu Zheng divided a few skewers for the eager Xiaodoudou. These meat skewers are very large, and a few skewers can fill up the small person of Xiaodoudou.
Xiaodoudou happily took the meat skewers and began to eat them. Then Chu Zheng divided the meat skewers into several skewers and gave them to the eager tree kite behind him. It's very strange, Shuyuan likes to eat Chu Zheng's barbecue, and every day he stands behind him waiting to be fed.
Shu Yuan took the meat skewers and started to eat, her face was full of satisfaction. This was one of the few moments when she showed a different expression.
Next, it was distributed to other girls. The girls took the meat skewers and chatted while eating.
Then Chu Zheng continued to barbecue.
Although Chu Zheng was no longer a man in charge of logistics, these girls all enjoyed Chu Zheng's barbecue with peace of mind, and no girl ever wanted to help him with the barbecue.
Being without him is not a sign of not loving. The force of inertia.
In their minds, women hunt and protect the tribe. It is already the law for men to sew, take care of children, cook, and receive protection.
The girls around Chu Zheng accepted Chu Zheng's barbecue with peace of mind. They talked loudly or softly, just like men drinking and eating meat at a barbecue stall...
Fortunately, Chu Zheng's hands and feet are extremely fast, and after a round of roasting, he can finally eat barbecued meat. I don't know what kind of monster this meat is, it's fat and thin, and it's very delicious. After all, as the young master, Jie can get good meat every time.
Just when Chu Zheng was about to eat meat, a faint phantom suddenly appeared in front of him, a little girl-like Xu Ling was looking eagerly at the meat skewer in his hand.
"Young man! Can you offer me your meat!" Seeing that Chu Zheng found her, the Void Spirit said a little embarrassedly.
"I haven't eaten barbecue for more than a thousand years, and your barbecue looks very good!" The Void Spirit swallowed, expressing his hunger and thirst.
"Who are you? Others can't see you?" Chu Zheng said very surprised. The women around him were still chatting and eating meat, they didn't notice anything unusual about him at all, and they didn't seem to be able to see the Void Spirit in front of them.
"It's okay! I have blocked their perception. They won't find us." The little girl Xu Ling said. Then she pointed to the meat skewer in his hand, and said a little dissatisfied: "Are you enshrining the meat skewer in your hand?"
Seeing the little girl's spirit like this, Chu Zheng handed over the meat in his hand and said, "Okay, I'll offer it to you!"
This Void Spirit didn't take the barbecue, but just laughed happily after hearing this sentence. Immediately, she took a deep breath on the barbecue, and the barbecue immediately became a lot darker, as if the essence was gone with it!
"It's delicious! I want more!" The little girl said excitedly, and Chu Zheng even saw that the little braids on her head had turned into sky braids!
Chu Zheng took a mouthful of the enshrined barbecue, and then he spit it out in one gulp! This barbecue has no taste at all, it is really tasteless.
Chu Zheng picked up a new barbecue and handed it to her.
The little girl took another breath. This time, she seemed to be reminiscing, and waited for more than a minute before recovering.
"Do you want more?" Chu Zheng asked curiously.
"No more! I'm done eating! And you can't ask for offerings without a bottom line!" The little girl smiled beautifully and rejected Chu Zheng's kindness.
"Who are you?" Hearing that she didn't want it, Chu Zheng started to eat by himself, and asked this sentence by the way.
"Who am I? I'm Ling! You can call me Xiaoju." The little girl turned around and said.
After finishing speaking, she straightened her chest and said, "Since I have accepted your offering, I want to give you back."
She thought for a while and said, "You are not my subordinate, and you can't bear too much force. How about this, I will guide you and let you find a place where you can rest!"
The little girl pointed at Chu Zheng, and then disappeared from Chu Zheng's sight.
Chu Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and then a piece of knowledge appeared in his mind, which was information guiding him to a place. For example, how far to go from here, and then which direction to turn.
So, this thing is really a spirit?
Nanyanzhou is a land of spirits, but Chu Zheng has never really seen a spirit. Even in the process of passing on the law by the suspected spirit, it was only a suspected spirit, or a spirit without spiritual intelligence, which was more like a fixed small program.
And the little girl Ling just now seems to have a very high IQ!
Chu Zheng hesitated for a moment, but still told Hui the guidance information, this kind of matter is for the patriarch to decide.
After listening to Chu Zheng's words, Hui looked at Chu Zheng with a very strange look, which contained surprise, doubt and a hint of understanding.
Suddenly, Chu Zheng felt a chill down his spine when he saw this look.
Then Hui said: "I know, this kind of thing is unpredictable. I will think about it."
After finishing speaking, Chu Zheng was sent away.
Chu Zheng walked outside the tent in a daze, so is this going to happen or not?
Back in his tent, Jie was still waiting for him. This month, Yue Jie has been keeping a close eye on him.
Chu Zheng also thanked her in his heart, if there was no Jie. He may have turned into medicine dregs by now.
How important it is to have a strong safe haven in an environment where wolves look around.
When he lay down, Jie leaned into his ear and asked, "Why are you going to my mother's place?"
Chu Zheng briefly told her about this, and she waved her hand and said, "Maybe it's a little spirit that doesn't make a difference. There are very few such spirits, but now all the powerful spirits are grown from this kind of little spirit."
Chu Zheng nodded in understanding. Neither of them realized that since they were little spirits who hadn't grown up, how could they block all of their spiritual senses?
The next day we broke camp and set off, and the route changed significantly. Chu Zheng knew that Hui decided to follow the route given by that spirit.
Walking in the desert, there are no markers around, only the sun in the sky to tell the direction. However, people here have very powerful inspiration, and their grasp of distance is also at the millimeter level.
After walking for a long time, I changed direction and continued walking.
This made Chu Zheng a little puzzled, it was a desert, a large piece of flat land, why did they have to turn around? Isn't going in a straight line the fastest?
But at night, he realized that he hadn't encountered wind and sand all day today. At this time, he realized that the path given to him by this spirit could even predict the storm, allowing them to avoid the storm perfectly!
During the barbecue at night, Chu Zheng kept observing whether the little girl Ling came with her.
This performance made Xiaodoudou very dissatisfied.
"Why are you looking around at the barbecue! Be careful that the meat is burnt!"
Chu Zheng couldn't laugh or cry at this accusation, could he be one of those ordinary men? Under my own strict monitoring, the meat should be as cooked as it should be, burnt? does not exist!
"Why are you talking so much! Could it be that the barbecue can't cover your mouth!" Chu Zheng also pretended to be dissatisfied.
Facing Chu Zheng who holds the barbecue in his hand and controls the distribution of barbecue, Xiao Doudou knows that he has been sloppy.
But Xiaodoudou is a little girl who can bend and stretch, can be small and big.
She immediately hugged Chu Zheng's arm, and said in a cute voice: "I was wrong, Brother Zheng!"
"Brother Zheng" made Chu Zheng laugh, and also made the women who were waiting for the feeding goosebumps.
In a feminist tribe, it is very rare to act like a baby to a man! Even if she acted like a baby, she did it behind her back, when no one was around!
Relying on her young age, this little girl dared to do things that they didn't even dare to do!
But Shu Yuan behind Chu Zheng nodded thoughtfully.
