The usual breakfast of the Wu tribe is very simple, and it is quite different from yesterday's banquet to welcome Qin Feng and the army.
Therefore, Qin Feng knew how much he attached importance to his arrival.
After the dragon soul and the members of the dragon team were laid off, they all had a hasty meal. But somehow, before Qin Feng said that he was going to march into the desert, a few women learned in advance.
"You stay and take care of the master."
Qin Feng said to Hu Xiaoling: "the desert is very dangerous, far from anyone can go."
"But..."
Hu Xiaoling was about to speak when she saw the old man come out of the room.
Seeing this, they quickly stepped forward, one on the left and the other on the right.
"Let her go. I have to recuperate for two days. When I recover a little, I will go. After all, it's my responsibility to clean up the door without my master."
Taoist Luoyu patted Hu Xiaoling's hand and put it in Qin Feng's hand. He solemnly said, "this girl will be handed over to you from now on. Although you are younger martial brother, they must take care of each other on the way."
“……”
Qin Feng and Hu Xiaoling are also speechless, the latter is blushing.
"Go ahead. If you want to go, go quickly. March in the desert. Morning and night are the best time. Once it's noon and the sun comes out, you'll find a place to rest."
The king of witchcraft told him to pay attention to some things and said, "the materials are ready. Be careful on the way."
Qin Feng nodded after listening, at this time Su light smoke also came up.
"I'm a military doctor. I must follow the army. I can't stay here."
She said seriously, "it's really my first time to enter the desert, but it doesn't mean you can enter, I can't
Qin Feng looks embarrassed. He really doesn't want to go in, but if he encounters a battle in the middle of the way, or if he arrives at Kumu village for a large-scale fierce battle, he can't do without medical treatment.
Among the people in the dragon soul and dragon group, Su Qingyan is the only one who knows medical treatment.
"All right."
Qin Feng sighed. It seems that on the way, he not only has to take care of Hu Xiaoling, but also has a su Qingyan. As for Phoenix, it's not a big problem.
"This time, we must protect the breeze and do our best."
"Father, please rest assured! Even if I die, I won't let my nephew suffer half harm! "
Hadan said firmly, and then a camel team came into people's sight. Camels are the most suitable means of transportation in the desert. Even helicopters can't arrive without long journey and enough fuel.
The most important thing is that this time they march is a covert operation. If they are going to attack by surprise, they will be exposed by helicopter.
"Sir, why can't we follow?" The officer was puzzled.
Knowing what he was thinking, Qin Feng patted each other on the shoulder and said, "because you have a more important task. Stay here..."
The combat effectiveness of the local army is weak, and the witch tribe needs to be protected. With the joint efforts of the local army and element division, there is a little bit of insurance.
"Yes
The officer saluted, knowing that it was indeed an important task.
"Let's go."
Qin Feng inspected the soldiers who had been fully armed, then gave a big order to set out, and took his head to the desert.
Strange to say, it's like knowing that people are going into the desert today. God is very proud. Originally, there was a sandstorm in the sky last night, but today there is no cloud and the sky is blue.
It turns out that according to hadan, the climate on the southern border of Xinjiang is so strange. Compared with inland cities, it is dry, rainy and dusty. It is dusty all the year round, at least half of the time.
But one thing is that after a sandstorm, the weather is often excellent, like two extremes.
Moreover, this season is the best time of the year to enter the desert. Other times, due to climate and other factors, are not suitable.
Then, watched by the frontier soldiers and the people of the Wu nationality, Qin Feng led the dragon soul soldiers in the lead, Jiaolong led the dragon team members in the tail, and the group passed the lookout tower and stepped into the desert.
However, when passing the lookout tower, Qin Feng glanced at bisa, who was hanging on it. He had already become a dead body, drooping his head, and could not die any more.
In this regard, he did not stay much, because as the old witch king said, morning and night are the most suitable time to go on the road. As soon as the sun is exposed at noon, no matter how strong people are, they can't stand the attack of ultraviolet rays.
Among them, the morning is the best, the night temperature is lower, and the line of sight is blocked, the process will be much slower.
"Jingle! Dang... "
Camel bells in the desert are crisp and melodious, like the most beautiful music in the world. People's feet step by step in the sand nest. Fortunately, they are all wearing desert boots, otherwise they would have been filled with fine sand.
Hada is the most valiant warrior and the most abundant hunter of the whole witch clan. In a word, he is an all-round man. He can find his way in the desert and take the best shortcut to reach Kumu village.
Wearing a pair of sheepskin boots, he walked beside Qin Feng, looking very relaxed, far less laborious than others, and patiently explained the plants in the desert for Qin Feng.
Dongfang Shuo is like a walking corpse, with both hands tied, with a rope tied in front of the camel to lead the way, like the exiled people in ancient times.
After walking less than five kilometers, Su Qingyan couldn't keep up with the team. He was panting and his lips were shriveled.
Hu Xiaoling is nothing. After all, it's nothing to master martial arts.
The soldiers were also unharmed. Although it was difficult to march into the desert, they were all the elites in the army.
"Why don't you take a break?"
Qin Feng goes to Su Qingyan and sees her blushing face. She passes a water bag, but she is refused.
"Water is too precious. I can bear it."
Su light smoke forbearance way: "continue to drive, I won't become a burden."
"You've slowed down the March."
Qin Feng doesn't say anything, because he wants to let the other party retreat. Now it's time to go back.
"I have a way."
But at this time, hadan came up and said: "in addition to carrying materials, the biggest use of the camel team is to carry people. Go up, have a rest and then come down."
“……”
Qin Feng is speechless. This guy is out to make a mess.
But for hadan, his nephew's daughter-in-law was tired, so she naturally wanted to find a way. Then she took a camel and yelled a few words. The camel squatted down and waited for Su Qingyan's ride.
"Hey, hey, I'm sorry."
Su light smoke also didn't refuse, soon got on the camel, leisurely follow the team March.
"You two, why don't you go up?"
Qin Feng looks at Hu Xiaoling and Fenghuang. He is kind-hearted and cares about them, but they turn a blind eye to them and ignore them.
Well, maybe he's talkative, but there's no need to worry too much about one being a female soldier and the other a female master.
"If under normal circumstances, how long can we get there?"
"Half a month at the fastest."
"What
Hearing hadan's reply, Qin Feng was surprised, including Jiaolong.
half a month?
"Eight hundred kilometers away, in the desert, do you think it's like walking on flat ground?"
Hadan shook his head and said, "however, I have a shortcut. I guess this shortcut from the map. No one has tried it. If it can be successful, it can greatly shorten the time."
"How long can it be shortened?"
"No problem for at least ten days."
"Tell me!"
Qin Feng asked while he was on his way.
"You see, now we are on the edge of the desert. It looks very flat, but in fact, the more we go inside, the more sand dunes there will be and the higher they will be."
"Usually, in order to save energy, people will avoid these sand dunes and make a detour, but it's very dangerous to go straight in the desert, because you don't know whether the other side of the sand dune is a quicksand vortex or a flat land, so no one will do it," hadan said
"Between two points, the straight line is the shortest, the detour is 800 kilometers, and the branch line is 300 kilometers at most."
Qin Feng nodded and asked, "do you mean we go straight?"
"Yes, it's the most efficient way."
"OK, just go as you say!"
Immediately, the whole army speeded up. However, as hadan said, within a short time, sand dunes of different sizes began to appear. At first, these sand dunes were relatively strong, but the later they went, the softer the sand became. Even if they were wearing desert boots, they were filled with fine sand.
Fortunately, after walking for a while, they saw a pavilion like building, which was simply made of a few withered branches and rags. It was as simple as it was, and it was more like a latrine than a latrine.
"It should have been built by the pioneers who explored Kumu village. Now it's getting hot. We might as well rest here and wait until dusk."
Hadan explained: "today, we are almost 30 kilometers away from each other. There is a high sand area in front of us, so there is no place to rest. We can only sleep in the open."
In fact, he was a little surprised that even the most powerful warrior in his family could be in the desert for 30 kilometers, but it took only one morning to get here, which was far beyond his imagination.
"Rest!"
Qin Feng saw that all the soldiers were very tired, so he had to order a rest. After a long time, hundreds of soldiers softened their legs and sat on the sand.
Su Qingyan, who jumped from the camel, took a water bag and handed it to Qin Feng.
"For those below, I'm not thirsty."
Qin Feng waved his hand, saying that he was not thirsty. His lips were all split, but he insisted that the soldiers drink first.
"Our water is far from enough to reach Kumu village, so we have to find a way to solve this problem on the way."
"Behind the dunes, there are often low-lying sand pits with water under them, but I don't know if you can drink it," hadan reminded
"There's something you can't drink."
Pterosaur was a little unaccustomed to his derogatory tone, saying: "we have drunk snow water, dew water, and even muddy water."
"That's good."
Hadan laughed and said nothing.
Finally, when the soldiers finished drinking water, Qin Feng took the water bag that was about to reach the bottom. But as soon as he raised his neck, he suddenly vaguely saw that several figures appeared in the distance.
All of a sudden, he quickly took out his telescope and grinned after reading it.
Look, here comes the water man!
