Chapter 195

We tied the camels together at night, but when we woke up this morning, only the reins were left on the ground.

Douyazai felt much better after a night's rest. He cursed angrily: "It must be that kid! I've seen him being sneaky from the beginning. After all, what kind of person can live in a hole in the sand? It's definitely It's him!"

At this time, Qin Xingping ran over in a panic, his face ugly.

"After counting, the remaining food and water are less than one-tenth of the original total. We are in big trouble now!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Now that we are approaching the depths of the desert, water and food are definitely the top priority. Without camels, people can walk on foot. If there is no water and food... you can imagine the consequences.

Dou Sprout said: "That kid ran away in the middle of the night, only two or three hours from now, why don't we send someone to chase him!"

"No," Lao Zhang immediately stopped Douyazai's suggestion. He said: "Alxa is covered with yellow sand as far as the eye can see. There is no reference. People can survive for up to three days without drinking water. What has happened has happened. We The top priority is to integrate the team and rationally distribute the remaining water and food."

"Besides, no one knows which direction the young man went. If it's a windy place, the camel's footprints will be completely covered up after fifteen minutes."

"Yes, I agree with what Lao Zhang said," Tou Tou said to me: "Yunfeng, take Xiaoxuan to collect the remaining water and food and see if there is enough for a few days."

Miss Zhao and I immediately started to take action. I was looking for water and she was looking for food.

Within half an hour, all the remaining bottled water and edible items were piled on the floor.

After counting, we now still have 9 bottles of purified water, half a bag of grilled naan and a small amount of beef jerky. Apart from these other things were taken away by Aza.

"The situation is not good..." Lao Zhang frowned and said: "Let's not talk about food. The five of us only have 9 bottles of water. According to the normal amount, it is not enough for one day. Originally, we had prepared more than ten days of water. .”

"Each of the five of us will take a bottle and save some. Leave the remaining 4 bottles here for safekeeping for emergencies." Lao Zhang started to talk as he spoke.

"We have to hurry up and hurry up. The distance from Leeward Slope to Crescent Oasis is the longest. It will take about three and a half days to get there by normal walking. Pack up, hold the camel, and set off now."

Under Lao Zhang's urging, the group packed up their things as quickly as possible.

Lao Zhang walked in the front to identify the direction. This time we all rode camels to save energy.

There was a lot of delay in the morning, and it felt like the camel caravan had not gone very long until noon.

The sun in Alxa is very strong at noon, and it becomes even more so as we go deeper. Everyone uses a gauze scarf as a hat to cover their heads, so as not to be exposed to direct sunlight to preserve as much moisture as possible in the body.

Dou Sprout's mouth was so hot that he felt thirsty. He couldn't bear it any longer. He opened the bottle of water and drank half of the bottle.

Xiaoxuan rode a camel and was closest to Dou Sprout. She kicked Dou Sprout and said angrily: "Why are you so weak? You can't just take a few sips from a bottle of water. Didn't you listen to Uncle Zhang? We still need two." The genius has arrived!”

Dou Sprout smacked his lips and said with satisfaction: "You care about me, if you don't drink water, why are you thirsty?"

"you!"

Xiaoxuan said angrily: "It's up to you, I'll ignore you!"

At this time, he wiped his sweat from his head, looked at Lao Zhang and asked: "The sun is too strong, why don't we find a place to rest before walking, I'm afraid you guys will get dehydrated."

"I'm afraid it won't work," Lao Zhang said worriedly, "There's no shade here, and it's hot even when sitting. Let's move forward and take a look."
