Surviving Endless Disasters
Section 244
After hearing these words, Huang Li became frustrated again. He was still not as good as the professor and Brother Wen.
After touching the kettle hanging on the camel, Huang Li opened it carefully, pointed it at his mouth, tilted his head and began to pour it.
After a while, a few small drops of water entered his mouth, as well as the last bit of cactus residue, which Huang Li chewed carefully as if he were eating delicacies from the mountains and seas.
"Professor, Huang Li, I still have some water in this kettle. Please pour some for you.
"Wen Zheng said.
"This is not okay.
"Professor Huang was surprised and waved his hand hastily, but Huang Li also quickly refused.
Until Wen Zheng pointed to the free camel that no one was riding, and said: "If we still haven't found a new water source tomorrow morning, we'll kill it.
" In this way, Professor Huang and Huang Li accepted the water poured by Wen Zheng, and only took a sip when they really couldn't stand their hunger and thirst.
This small amount of water allowed the three of them to persist for another day and night.
In the early morning of the next day, the sky and the earth gradually became brighter. The camel was completely unaware of the coming danger. He was still shaking the copper bell tied around his neck and walked forward leisurely.
Wen Zheng originally planned to deal with the camel before the temperature rose, but he heard the grunting sound of Huang Li, who was already unconscious.
"There's a mirage again, this time it's an oasis, but I won't be fooled.
"After the double blow of poisonous cactus and mirage, Huang Li has now learned to be as steady as his teacher and Brother Wen.
If an oasis appears in front of you, it must be a mirage. Don't waste your energy running towards it! But when Wen Zheng heard these words, he felt a little hopeful.
One of the conditions for the formation of mirages is high temperature, which often appears during the hottest period at noon. Now it is the early morning before the sun has fully risen, so how can a mirage appear? Wen Zheng raised his head and looked forward, his heart beating violently.
"That might be a real oasis!" Chapter 129 Four camels lined up in a row, shaking their copper bells and making a sweet and clear sound.
They didn't notice the urgency of their owners on their backs, and still walked towards the oasis unhurriedly, leaving circular hoof prints.
When Wen Zheng suggested that it might not be a mirage but a real oasis, Professor Huang and Huang Li immediately cheered up and opened their heavy eyelids.
Carefully observe the scene ahead.
Even Professor Huang agrees that mirages will not occur in the desert where the temperature is still relatively low in the early morning, but they still can't believe it.
I am afraid that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
The sun shines, and slender shadows fall on the golden sand dunes, getting closer to the oasis. The oasis still does not disappear, but you can see the clear appearance of the oasis.
It’s really not a mirage! Wen Zheng couldn't control his excitement and controlled the camel to speed up, with Professor Huang and Huang Li following closely behind.
After a while, the three people and four camels came to the oasis. As soon as they stepped into the surrounding woods, they felt a touch of coolness. Wen Zheng and the others did not need to look for it, and the camels took the initiative to lead them to the clear spring in the center of the oasis.
The camel lowered its head to drink water freely. Wen Zheng and the others couldn't wait to jump off the camel, and took a few steps to the clear spring. They stepped on the soft green grass beside the clear spring. Their skin felt the moist air around them, and their mouths opened uncontrollably. smile.
Quickly choose a place where there are no small animals to stay, and directly bury your face in it. The face that has been damaged by wind and sand for a long time feels particularly cool and comfortable the moment it comes into contact with the clear water.
Drinking the rare clear spring water in big gulps, it nourishes Wang Zao's dehydrated body. It's like drinking nectar and jade dew, and the whole person feels comfortable like never before.
Wen Zheng looked up at the sky. The kerchief wrapped around his face was soaked in water, which brought a chill when it evaporated.
Standing in the shadow of the cactus, there were dense reeds beneath him, and there were several small lizards resting on the rocks next to them. Wen Zheng turned his head and looked over, feeling that these lizards were particularly cute.
At this moment, Huang Li, who was also lying next to him, looked up to the sky and shouted: "Ah! We can finally survive! We will not be knocked down!" Listening to Huang Li's lively shouting, Wen Zheng and Huang The professors laughed out loud.
After the three people who were extremely short of water finally recovered, they stood up from the ground and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
Although there is drought and little rain in the desert, there are underground rivers under most of the desert floor.
The high mountains near the desert will have thick snow in winter. When the ice and snow melt in summer, it will flow into the rock formations under the desert floor along the gaps in the valleys, forming underground rivers.
In some low-lying areas in the desert, there may be water from underground rivers gushing out, or the impermeable underground rock formations may have fractured due to crustal movement, resulting in the use of groundwater.
Once there is water, various creatures will gather here, gradually forming an oasis.
The oasis that Wen Zheng and the others arrived at had no artificial tools at all. It was a very rare natural oasis, but the area was not too large.
Huang Li stood by the clear spring and was filling the kettle. This experience of Wang Ke really frightened him.
Wen Zheng asked the older Professor Huang to stay where he was and rest, and told Huang Li, who was filling the water, to accompany Professor Huang while he went to check the situation of the entire oasis.
The center of this oasis is the precious clear spring, which is a round shape about seven or eight meters in diameter, with aquatic plants and algae growing in it.
There are dense reeds around the spring, and short Achnatherum splendens outside. Tall poplars and red willows stand on the outermost periphery, and there are a few scattered cacti in between.
The camel still lowered its head to drink the water. There are also many small animals beside the spring, most of which are lizards and poisonous snakes and scorpions that are common during this period. No large desert animals have been seen for the time being.
When Wen Zheng came back after walking around the periphery of the desert and looking at the surrounding environment, he found that Huang Li had filled the kettle and was helping Professor Huang to find a place to rest early.
Wen Zheng raised his voice and reminded him: "Huang Li, don't forget, especially under the red willow and poplar trees.
" During this period of time when he was with Professor Huang, Wen Zheng discovered an important problem. This world's understanding of the desert is not as good as his world's. After realizing this, Wen Zheng began to seriously sort out the memories of his original body.
Compared with his own world, this mission world is more chaotic. Even though the era has entered the high-tech modern era, there are still many frictions among countries. In order to enhance the strength of their own countries, this world has ignored the environment. It was not until the area of the desert continued to expand, the speed of land desertification accelerated, and the problem became increasingly serious that it received the attention of various countries and allowed relevant experts to conduct research.
In the memory of the original body who studied biology, there is indeed a lot of knowledge related to the desert, so Wen Zheng said these, belonging to the archaeology of Huang Jiaoshu and Huang Li, because Wen Zheng already knew them.
Huang Li and Professor Huang looked at Wen Zheng and shouted: "Okay, we know."
Then they moved to the sand between the trees.
With plants and springs, it was much better at noon.
When the sun set and the temperature dropped, Wen Zheng took Huang Li to study and build a camp that might be lived for a long time.
After finally finding this oasis, they must settle here and wait for the arrival of rescue.
Wen Zheng had no reason to keep walking this time. Obviously, staying in the oasis was the best idea. However, thinking of the deadline given by the system, there would definitely be twists and turns in the future. He still had to remain vigilant at all times and prepare to have a good rest these days.
