Surviving Endless Disasters

Huang Li listened carefully to Wen Zheng's words and actions. Professor Huang, who was sleeping, also heard the voice and came over to cheer. Slowly, Huang Li's body began to emerge from the sand.

Wen Zheng quickly reminded again: "Don't stand up after you surface. Slowly crawl or roll away from there. Be sure to maintain the contact area with the sand.

"Finally got down from the quicksand to a safe place.

Wen Zheng and Professor Huang stretched out their hands to pull up Huang Li, who was covered in sand, and gently patted the sand off his body.

Huang Li, who was still able to suppress his fear when trapped in the yellow sand and pretended to be calm while delivering his last words, suddenly lost control of his emotions after escaping from death. Tears emerged from Wang Zao's eyes. Huang Li, who had just stood up, suddenly squatted down and cried loudly.

The cries were filled with the pain of these days and the despair of the uncertain future.

Professor Huang's eyes also filled with mist as he listened to the sad cries. Just as he was about to pat Huang Li's shoulder to comfort him, he heard Wen Zheng's voice.

"Stop crying, don't you think there is not enough water in your body?

"The crying stopped abruptly.

Huang Li squatted on the spot in a daze, with a wry smile on his face. He was so heartbroken that he couldn't even speak. He didn't even have the right to cry now.

Wen Zheng expressionlessly helped Professor Huang walk to the place where the camel stayed, and only said: "Tears are the most useless in disasters, and they will also affect the emotions of other companions.

"Urine can be recycled and reused, and tears can be evaporated by high temperatures as soon as they come out of the eyes.

No, it was absorbed by the scarf wrapped around the face before it evaporated.

Huang Li tightened his loose turban to protect his face that was flushed by the sun, and quickened his pace to follow.

After struggling in the quicksand for a long time, it was almost dusk, and the camel stayed in place obediently.

People trapped in quicksand may still be able to control their emotions and escape, but animals have no such ability.

Camels and other animals stuck in quicksand will not understand people's comfort. They will only struggle desperately because their bodies are trapped, causing them to sink deeper and deeper, and even bring people in.

So in order to prevent the transportation they finally found from getting stuck in the quicksand, Wen Zheng and the others quickly took the precious camel and left the area around the quicksand.

When the sun was almost setting below the horizon, they stopped for a short period of repair.

Professor Huang stayed beside the camel and placed a few markers with stones on the ground, hoping that the rest of the expedition team would follow the markers and find them.

Wen Zheng took the dagger and left first, and Huang Li quickly followed.

Wen Zheng turned around a little depressed and asked doubtfully: "Are you following me?" It was hindering him from catching food.

Huang Li, who was following Wen Zheng closely, was startled by Wen Zheng's sudden question. He scratched his hair and said to Wen Zheng a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't cry suddenly today.

"Is it because of this? Wen Zheng didn't take it to heart at first. That is to say, he spoke a little harshly at that time. It was a habit brought about by being a teacher in his previous life. So he waved his hand and said: "It is normal for a sudden emotional breakdown in the desert. Yes, your performance at that time was already very good, but my tone of voice in the afternoon was a bit not very good.

Huang Li finally stopped being depressed after hearing that Zheng didn't blame him. Then he showed a flattering smile and said to Wen Zheng: "Brother Wen Zheng, can you teach me how to use this dagger? Let alone a snake, I'm not even a scorpion." None can be caught.

"If you look carefully, Huang Li is several months older than Wen Zheng, but Huang Li himself feels that age is nothing, the most important thing is ability.

Wen Zheng is so capable, it's appropriate to call him brother.

"Want to learn?" As Wen Zheng spoke, the dagger in his hand accurately struck a snake that had just emerged.

Huang Li's eyes almost gleamed. In his hand, the field dagger could only function as a kitchen knife.

This field dagger was equipped when we came to the desert because we were worried that members of the expedition team would be injured by animals. It was also used by the biology team to cut plants and collect specimens.

Wen Zheng had been a teacher for several years in the last world. Now he has no problem accepting students. When he is stuck in quicksand, he can still remind others to stay away. There is absolutely no problem with his character.

"The usage of close combat and long-distance throwing are different. These snakes are not suitable for close attacks, so you must first learn to find the seven inches of the snake, and then make the dagger accurately hit.

The first thing is the posture of holding the dagger, the thumb should be..." Wen Zheng directly explained the key points of using the dagger one by one.

With several years of teaching experience, Wen Zheng is now able to teach Huang Lilai with ease, picking up various techniques at his fingertips and giving demonstrations while teaching.

After the three of them had finished their supplies of Wang Liang for two days, Huang Li finally succeeded.

Although there was a certain amount of chance, it finally dawned on me.

In fact, you don’t need to eat too much food in the desert. When there are camels for transportation, as long as it can maintain the body’s basic consumption, eating too much will increase the body’s demand for water.

The sky gradually became brighter, the warm yellow sun slowly climbed up from the horizon, and the sky was dyed with a touch of color.

But no one has the intention to appreciate such beautiful scenery. The early morning represents a new day for them, and the arrival of a time that is so intense that they will lose a lot of water.

Although Wen Zheng secretly added a few sips of physical recovery potion into the water bottles of the three of them, and although they tried to reduce water use as much as possible, the cactus juice in the water bottles was still almost finished.

Wen Zheng sat on a high camel, and what he saw from a high position was still long stretches of yellow sand, with no trace of water at all.

Probably letting the camel slow down and falling behind, Wen Zheng looked at Huang Li and Professor Huang who were lying on the camel, and exchanged a new physical potion from the system, quietly poured it into the kettle, and mixed it with a little cactus juice. together.

Focusing on the extra camel, Wen Zheng made up his mind that if he still couldn't find a water source tomorrow morning, he would kill the camel to get water.

Just when Wen Zheng was thinking, Huang Li, who was lying on the camel, suddenly straightened up, pointed forward with his finger and shouted weakly: "Brother Wen...Professor...Look, there is a forest ahead.

"Wen Zheng and Professor Huang were both startled and quickly looked into the distance.

"I'm too excited again, this is a mirage.

"After shouting out excitedly, Huang Licai clearly realized that something was wrong and showed a wry smile.

There is a green forest in the distance. At first glance, you can think of a sweet water source under the forest. But if you look carefully, you can see a tall building in the forest. It is a room. A typical European-style building with a tall spire that is particularly eye-catching.

It is still possible for an oasis to appear in the desert, but such a European-style building is impossible. No one will go to a lot of trouble to build a house here.

It could only be a mirage.

Mirage is a natural phenomenon that often occurs in deserts. It is formed by the refraction and total reflection of light.

In fact, mirages are very common. Sometimes when driving on an asphalt road in summer, you can see a mirage because the dark asphalt road has a stronger ability to absorb light. The most common thing is that you see water on the ground from a distance, but when you get closer, you find it. It's very dry inside.

Due to the hot sunlight in the desert, the refractive index of the air is different, which reflects distant light into it.

“Looks like we’re in good luck.

Professor Huang said, staring at the mirage in the distance.

"What's so good about it?" Huang Li complained in a hoarse voice, "Even the mirage can't show us an oasis and make us happy.

"
