When the sky was bright, the group arrived at their destination, an oasis in the desert.
The conversation late at night ended on bad terms. Lin Weier later fell asleep in the car.
Bai Xiaobai looked at her without sleeping, and suddenly remembered that before, when he fell asleep, a group of people around him were watching him.
How are you all now?
…
Flowing water, this place is just like its name. It is a river in a desert oasis. It has a beginning and a tail. It only exists in the oasis and disappears when it goes out. The river is very narrow and winding, with the widest point being only one meter. It's very worrying. If you don't pay attention, it will be lost in the sun.
But this narrow river brought a glimmer of life to this desert, because Bai Xiaobai saw a tawny rabbit in the sparse grass next to it. It suddenly jumped out and appeared in another place not far away. Disappeared in a bush.
Bai Xiaobai looked at it and smiled slightly. There is life everywhere. It's great.
Turning your attention to the flowing water, you can still clearly see the fine yellow sand under the water on both sides of the river. The further you go into the river, the greener the water becomes, and the green turns black, blocking people's sight. Looking from the sky, it looks like a strip of different thicknesses. The black rope was placed in the desert.
Because it's just dawn and still a little dark, this black rope lying here adds a sense of coldness to the place. It's also cold in the desert, which doesn't feel good.
Bai Xiaobai was standing next to Lin Weier. She originally wanted to help, but Lin Shanhong retreated to Lin Weier and said that you should spend more time with her. As a result, Bai Xiaobai had nothing to do.
Looking at the two brothers Sun Gaowen and Sun Gaowu who were tying all the camels to the few remaining big trees. And Meng Xue was preparing the rope there.
Bai Xiaobai suddenly remembered something. She asked Lin Weier beside her: "Do you have any sticks or other weapons? Can you lend me one? By the way, I also want one with better quality. Long straps made of softer material, like our hair ropes.”
Then he saw Lin Weier puffing her face and looking at her angrily without saying a word.
"What's wrong?" Haven't you calmed down yet?
"I only lend things to friends." Lin Weier turned her head and didn't look at Bai Xiaobai.
"Aren't we friends?" Bai Xiaobai asked helplessly.
"Anyone you want to leave in the future will not be considered a friend." People who are alone always have a unique way of doing things.
"Everyone will say goodbye, and friends are no exception. You should believe that we will meet again eventually, just like I went back this time to find my friends."
Yesterday, Lin Weier and she looked through the bottom and looked childish, but she was actually 22 years old. Whether it was Bai Xiaobai's false report of 19 years old or her real 16 years old, they were much younger than her. But after actually getting along with her, Bai Xiaobai Xiaobai has the real feeling of being a sister.
"Should I believe that?" Lin Weier turned around in confusion.
"I hope you believe so, but in reality it still depends on whether you are willing or not." Bai Xiaobai naturally raised his hand and sent out a head-touching kill.
"Okay then." Lin Weier curled her lips and gave in. She first took out an exquisite dagger from her space bracelet, the kind with a diamond at the bottom, and put it in Bai Xiaobai's hand. Bai Xiaobai looked at it. Holding the delicate dagger in his hand, he fell into deep thought. Why don't he break off a branch from the big tree next to him and use it. This feels so expensive that I don't dare to use it.
Lin Weier looked at Bai Xiaobai's expression and guessed what Bai Xiaobai was thinking. She quickly said: "I only have this dagger. My father bought it for me to defend myself. There is nothing else."
Bai Xiaobai felt incredible. Aren't you going to fight Yuan Zhong soon? Yuan Zhong! If you get hit, you may die, Yuan Zhong!
Well, blame your dad for having to find a bodyguard for you.
Bai Xiaobai reluctantly returned the dagger, and decided that it would be more reliable to go to the Huohuo Tree. As a result, Lin Weier was like a grass in a flooded area. She opened her mouth and Bai Xiaobai didn't give her a chance to emo.
"Is there a longer strap?" Bai Xiaobai continued to ask. Lin Weier gave a satisfactory answer. She took out several hair ropes, all of which were of good quality. She didn't He asked with certainty: "Can it be used if I try hard?"
"It works." All Bai Xiaobai could think of was that Lin Weier took out a few hair ropes to give herself an emergency. It was just right now.
Bai Xiaobai tied the straps together, untied his coat, and then, with the help of Lin Weier, tied Su Zili, who had been holding her in his arms, to his body.
"You value him?"
"Yeah, so I don't feel safe leaving it anywhere, so I might as well tie it to my body, so that we can share the joys and sorrows." Bai Xiaobai made a joke, and then buttoned up the coat. Su Zili was covered by the clothes, freeing Bai Xiaobai Keep holding his hand.
Bai Xiaobai, who had two hands, planned to go to the big tree. She looked around and picked a branch that was two fingers thick, and then walked towards it.
"Why?" Lin Weier asked as she followed behind her.
"Huh?" Bai Xiaobai didn't understand what this young lady wanted to ask.
"Why do you cherish it so much? I see you hugged it all the way. Isn't he just a doll?"
"Magic of Earth - Sand Blade"
The sand gathered into a blade and rushed towards the branch that Bai Xiaobai was interested in, cutting it off.
The young lady asked another question that Bai Xiaobai would never think about at ordinary times, so Bai Xiaobai looked at the branches he had cut and was silent for a while.
"He is my friend, a friend who has been separated. This doll is the only thing he left to me, so I cherish him."
…
As daybreak approached, everyone was ready to jump into the river.
When Bai Xiaobai heard that he was about to jump into the river, he thought it was a joke. Although the bottom could not be seen in the middle of the river, how deep could this one-meter-wide river be? Is it necessary to be so solemn in preparing to jump into the river collectively? Everyone had thick ropes tied to their bodies. Even if the river was really deep, no one was seen carrying oxygen bottles, although it seemed that such things did not exist in this world.
As a result, Zhu Pingmiao, the eldest brother of the driver, jumped in first, grabbed everyone's rope ends, disappeared into the river and never came back up. Bai Xiaobai was stunned.
Then Meng Xue jumped down and disappeared into it, while the remaining people were waiting on the shore.
For about three minutes, a blue silk scarf slowly floated up from the water.
"It's safe below for now, let's go down," Lin Shanhong said to the remaining people.
Then the two brothers Sun Gaowen jumped down, and then Lin Shanhong looked at Bai Xiaobai and Lin Weier.
"You two go down together, and I'll cut off the queen."
"Okay, Dad"
"good"
Lin Weier took Bai Xiaobai's hand and led her to jump into the river together, her movements were very skillful.
When Bai Xiaobai saw Lin Weier, he smiled and pulled himself down. He was not very afraid. After all, everyone had gone down, so as far as the environment was concerned, it should be fine down there.
With a "pop" sound, the two of them entered the water. Bai Xiaobai closed his eyes subconsciously, only to hear the water pouring into his ears, and there was a roar.
Then there was the quiet feeling of floating in the water. Suddenly the rope around the waist exerted force, and Bai Xiaobai and Lin Weier were pulled down.
Bai Xiaobai was alert, thinking that something had happened, and instinctively raised the branch stick on his left hand. At this time, he heard Lin Weier's voice.
"There's no need to struggle, it's Uncle Zhu and Sister Meng who are pulling us. We can breathe and open our eyes underwater, so there's no need to be nervous."
