Zhao Kai is also urging Li Yang, because he knows that fresh water is even more important to people than food!
"Ahem, I'm afraid I won't be able to draw fresh water today. The system just reminded me that today's material realization has reached the upper limit."
Li Yang coughed dryly and scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Ah? What should we do? How can we cross the desert with only three bottles of fresh water?"
Zhao Kai asked with a surprised look on his face. This is a big problem. They have to face a difficult choice.
"Li Yang, how about we rest for a day and wait until tomorrow to cross the desert?"
Xu Meng cared about Li Yang very much. He was afraid that something unexpected might happen to Li Yang, so he wanted to rest for one more day.
"No, we only have one day and one night to rest. This wastes too much time.
We must reach Fortress No. 1 as soon as possible and exchange for nuclear fuel. "
Li Yang was resolute, then looked at Jiang Feng and Zhao Kai and said: "I have decided to get up and cross the desert immediately. We need to strictly control the intake of fresh water. If there is really a shortage of fresh water, then think of other things. Method.
I believe there is no perfect path for everyone. What do you think? Tell me about it? Don't hold back your thoughts, I will listen carefully. "
Li Yang was very sincere and did not ignore these two people. He understood that the four of them were now a team and should fully accept and absorb everyone's opinions and different perspectives.
"We agree with your approach. After all, we have an important task this time, and we need to obtain nuclear fuel as quickly as possible."
Jiang Feng and Zhao Kai looked at each other, and then agreed with Li Yang's approach.
"Okay, let's get ready to cross the desert now!"
Li Yang was very satisfied, got in the car, and the four people and two cars continued to move forward.
An hour later, the surrounding environment changed. There were fewer and fewer trees and weeds, and the desolate Gobi Desert appeared in front of us.
After walking for a while, there was an endless desert in front of us.
There is yellow sand everywhere, and there are no other plants or animals, which makes people feel depressed.
Li Yang also found that the temperature in the desert was much higher than outside. They took off their coats, but it was still very hot and their bodies began to sweat, which consumed a lot of water.
At noon, several people took a short rest as usual.
"Jiang Feng, Zhao Kai, give you a bottle of fresh water, one for me and Xu Meng, and the remaining bottle for backup."
Jiang Feng was not polite and agreed to take it. He and Zhao Kai were already very thirsty, so they were just insisting.
However, the two of them also understood the preciousness of fresh water. Each of them just drank a few sips to moisten their throats, and then carefully put the water away.
Li Yang walked to his car and handed Xu Meng a bottle of fresh water.
"Drink some water and replenish your water. We have just walked less than half the distance. It will take nearly a day to get out of the desert."
"I'm not thirsty, you can drink."
Xu Meng shook her head. Although her lips were a little chapped, she still wanted to leave the fresh water to Li Yang. After all, she couldn't do anything and couldn't help. Chun Chun was just a burden.
"Drink quickly, don't lie to me, your lips are dry, don't worry, I will find a way to get fresh water."
Li Yang forced the bottle of water to Xu Meng. Seeing that Xu Meng still refused to drink the water, he unscrewed the bottle cap and put it to her mouth.
Xu Meng just took a small sip, and then said with a smile: "I'm not thirsty anymore. This water is really sweet. Try it."
"What's the use of just taking a sip of water? Take two more sips."
Li Yang forced Xu Meng to drink two more gulps of water, and then he felt relieved.
Although fresh water is very precious and scarce now, he is also aware of the serious harm caused to the human body once it is deprived of water.
After a short rest, a few people continued to move forward.
A few hours later, Jiang Feng and Zhao Kai's car suddenly stopped moving.
Li Yang followed and stopped the car. He was confused and decided to get out of the car and take a look.
"Li Yang, it's not good! Zhao Kai fainted!"
Jiang Feng got out of the car in a panic and shouted towards Li Yang.
"Ah! What happened?"
Li Yang was taken aback and quickly ran over to check on Zhao Kai's condition.
Zhao Kai was seen leaning on the passenger seat, his face pale, his lips chapped and bleeding. It was obvious that he was severely dehydrated.
"This is a severe water shortage. Do you still have water?"
Li Yang frowned, he did not expect such a serious problem to arise.
"No, I finished it an hour ago. I persuaded Zhao Kai to ask you for the spare bottle of water. He refused, so he kept gritting his teeth and endured it. As a result, he suddenly fainted just now."
Jiang Feng was very anxious. He and Zhao Kai had been good brothers for many years. They had fought side by side so many times that they already had a deep relationship.
"I'll get some water."
Li Yang didn't hesitate when he heard this. It was important to save people now. Without fresh water, he could think of another way. But if something went wrong with Zhao Kai, it would be too late!
"What happened?"
Xu Meng was a little confused when she saw Li Yang taking the spare bottle of water in the car.
"Zhao Kai is a little dehydrated. He just fainted. I have to replenish him with water in time, otherwise his life will be in danger."
"We still have some water here. Let's take it. It's important to save people."
Li Yang glanced at the bottle in Xu Meng's hand. There was only a small amount of fresh water in it, about half a bowl of water.
"Let's keep this little water."
Li Yang was worried that Xu Meng would have problems due to lack of water, and this little water might not be effective.
Li Yang came to Zhao Kai with water, and cooperated with Jiang Feng to feed Zhao Kai some water, then washed his face with water and wiped his forehead to cool down.
After a while, Zhao Kai snorted and finally opened his eyes.
"Zhao Kai, are you okay?"
Jiang Feng was very happy to see Zhao Kai woke up.
However, Zhao Kai looked very ashamed after seeing the spare water in Li Yang's hand.
"Li Yang, you shouldn't waste this last bottle of spare water to save me.
I just fainted for a while, and I will be fine after a while. Now that you have used all the water on me, there will be no water for everyone who is thirsty later. "
Li Yang said with a serious face: "Zhao Kai, how can you say that? Don't say we still have water, even if there is no water, if you are in such a situation, I will find water to save you even if I find a way.
Don't worry about the water, I will find a way, and I can draw a lot of fresh water tomorrow. "
Zhao Kai was very moved by Li Yang's words. This is a trustworthy friend and brother!
"Li Yang, these words from you are enough. I, Zhao Kai, will have you as my friend for the rest of my life!"
Li Yang also grinned, everyone was happy, as long as Zhao Kairen was fine.
At night, Li Yang decided to stop moving forward and rest where he was. After all, it was easy to get sleepy while driving at night, and driving while fatigued was more likely to cause problems.
However, the fresh water had been exhausted by this time. Li Yang was worried that the magic pen might not be able to be used tomorrow, so he decided to find a way to get some fresh water in the desert first.
Li Yang asked Jiang Feng and Zhao Kai to work with him. He dug several small pits in a low-lying area with an engineering shovel. He also placed a used can tin in each pit and covered it with a transparent plastic sheet. good.
"Li Yang, are you sure you can really get fresh water in the desert like this?"
Zhao Kai asked suspiciously while working. He was a little unconvinced.
"Why do you talk so much? It must be reasonable for Li Yang to do this. Let's just do it."
Jiang Feng rolled his eyes at Zhao Kai, feeling that this guy talked too much and was always a bit naive.
"I'm just asking what's going on? Tsk!"
Zhao Kai was obviously dissatisfied. He actually wanted fresh water more than anyone else. After all, he had consumed the most fresh water before.
Li Yang smiled and explained: "It must be no problem! Don't worry, the temperature difference between day and night is very big in this desert. What I do is to use the principle of large temperature difference to condense water droplets on the plastic cloth, and then gather them together, and they will fall off. In the can below.
Although the amount of water will not be too much, it is enough for our emergency use and can also play an important role at critical moments. "
Li Yang said with confidence that he used to love watching wilderness survival programs, and he knew these little survival skills very well.
Zhao Kai was a little confused, but he still chose to believe Li Yang.
"Well, hopefully we'll wake up tomorrow with something to gain."
Li Yang returned to the tent, and Xu Meng had already fallen asleep. It was difficult for a girl like her to adapt to such a long journey, so her body felt particularly tired.
Li Yang sat next to Xu Meng and looked at the girl in front of him quietly. He was so fascinated by her exquisite facial features, beautiful appearance, and refined temperament!
Therefore, Li Yang secretly made up his mind that he must survive on this apocalyptic planet, and he must also protect Xu Meng, who is his most beloved woman!
"Li Yang, Li Yang! Come and see! There is really water in the water pit you set up!"
The next morning, just after dawn, Li Yang was still asleep when he was woken up by Zhao Kai's shouting outside the tent.
Li Yang opened his eyes and glanced at Xu Meng, who was still sleeping in his arms but frowning slightly. He wished he could grab Zhao Kai and curse him!
This kid is really stupid. He is so noisy that it almost wakes up Xu Meng!
"Okay, stop shouting, I heard you all."
Li Yang got dressed and walked out of the tent, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and looked at Zhao Kai helplessly.
"Li Yang, you are so awesome! I'm convinced! Come and see, we really got water in the desert!"
Zhao Kai pointed to Jiang Feng not far away and said that at this time Jiang Feng was taking out the tin cans from each small pit and collecting all the water inside in a water bottle.
"Li Yang, this harvest is pretty good. We collected almost a bottle of fresh water."
Jiang Feng came over and showed Li Yang the fresh water he had obtained.
Li Yang just nodded slightly, and then remembered that his magic pen should be ready for use.
"Very good, wait a minute, I'll see if I can draw fresh water now.
If it is possible, then the fresh water collected is not very useful.
But if my magic pen can't draw supplies, then this fresh water is our only life-saving water.
If we finish drinking this little fresh water, we will most likely be forced to drink something unacceptable. "
"Ah? Apart from this little fresh water, do we have anything else to drink?"
