There are three words in the title of the book: sun bath, but the sun in the desert of Kenya is not gentle enough to make people enjoy. It is a harsh environment, and it is a great challenge to survive there.
For thousands of years, mankind has created countless countries in the desert of Kenya, creating a prosperous and powerful scene. Today, there are still human countries on the yellow sand, but they are no longer prosperous in the past.
Human beings are highly adaptable creatures, but in the world of hunters, there are more adaptable creatures than human beings.
When the oasis formed by underground river becomes less and less, the living environment becomes more and more difficult.
However, there are a group of dangerous creatures still able to adapt to it. While the human base is gradually decreasing, their number is gradually increasing.
The world is so big, there are many places to go, but it's hard to move. People who have lived in the desert of Kenya for generations have never thought of leaving.
Nowadays, as the largest desert in the world, the Kendia desert is one of the most unsuitable places for living creatures in the world, and also the desert with the largest population and country.
The yellow sand is spread over thousands of miles. The crimson rock mountain stands alone on the yellow sand. When the wind blows, the yellow sand is flying all over the sky.
A armored cow ran on the yellow sand and rolled up a long salon.
The armored cattle is a kind of desert terrestrial creature with strong endurance, thirst resistance, heat resistance and cold resistance.
It is very different from ordinary cattle. There are five stomachs in its body, four of which can be used to store a lot of water. There are no sharp horns on its head, but it is covered with a thick layer of hard skin from the forehead to the back neck, just like armor, so it gets its name.
Armored cattle are domesticated by people living in the desert of Kenya. They are indispensable companions for walking in the desert.
Luo and his party rode on the sand sled pulled by the armored cattle, and went to the front of the vast land.
They have been in the desert for three days. So far, they have seen scorpions as big as three-story houses, sand insects as long as ten meters, cactus that can walk, sandstorms that block out the sun, but they have never seen people.
"Linnie, how long will it take to get to the Elba oasis?"
Luo Qi sat on the broad back of the armored cow. He first looked at buhala, who was listless on the sand sled, and then at Lin Nie, who closed his eyes to nourish his spirit.
Hearing Luo's words, Lin Nie's eyes opened a crack and said: "no accident, it will arrive in the evening the day after tomorrow."
Luo Wenyan nodded and looked ahead.
There is a wooden half shed cover on the sledge, which was reconstructed by God's hand before he set out. It can block the poisonous sunlight, but it can't block the temperature.
The water that he brought out before he set out was almost bottoming out, which was also the reason why Bukhara was listless. As Lin Nie was older, he must have been suffering, but he didn't show it like Bukhara.
"Two days?"
Luo looked at the distant sand dunes and scattered rock mountains. With the existing water, it is absolutely impossible to last until the day after tomorrow.
One thing Luo knows very well is that he can't meet any oasis on his way to Elba oasis.
Today, there are only three large oases left in the desert, and one small oasis in the Red Rock Canyon.
There are three countries standing on the three large oases, among which the Elba oasis is one. As for the small oases in the red rock gorge, they are occupied by brutal and cold-blooded sand bandits.
Oasis is the source of life of desert, while the Kendia desert is the largest desert in the world, but it only has four oases, which is a very cruel reality.
That is to say, before they arrive at the Elba oasis, they have no oasis to replenish water.
Generally speaking, a small three person team like Luo needs to take at least two armored oxen when traveling. If only one is taken, its resources are not enough to support the destination.
Facts have proved that the resources carried by a armored cow are not enough for them to use, but the reason why they only carry one armored cow is Lin Nie's request, perhaps to increase the difficulty.
"If we can meet dancing cactus, we can't, any creature can."
Luo thought silently, picked up the leather water bag hanging on his waist and threw it to Bukhara.
The slightly flat water bag fell on buhala's stomach, played a few times, and swayed out the pleasant sound of water.
Bukhara suddenly opened his eyes, reached for the water bag, quickly pulled out the plug, filled the little water left in the water bag, and then sighed contentedly.
"Resurrected!"
Bukhara straightened up his upper body a little, and suddenly became energetic.
"You can't move Lin Nie's water. The bag just now is the last one left." Lo looked back at buhara, who had no strength to use.
"After drinking the water you gave me, I think I can hold on for at least three hours!" Bukhara said seriously.
Luo laughed and said, "that would be the best."
An hour later, Bukhara lay dead.What about three hours?
Luo rubs his forehead and always pays attention to the surroundings. Once there are creatures in his vision, he will jump to capture them at the first time. If his luck is too bad, it will be dangerous.
Looking back at Lin Nie, who has always been keeping her eyes closed, she always feels that she is not worried at all. In this kind of environment, if the water source is cut off, no matter how strong the mind is, she can't hold on.
As time went by, half an hour later, Luo's body began to lack water.
It's two thirty in the afternoon, and it's four hours before the sun sets.
"I'm in trouble."
Luo Mei's head slightly frowned. The water left in the whole car was the half bag of water in Lin Nie's hand. It was also the last source of water for them.
According to Lin Nie's book, the best object to replenish water in the desert of Kenya is dancing cactus. However, they are so unlucky that they have not met a second one up to now, except for one just after they set out.
At this time, the front of the dust fog.
Luo gazed at the place where the dust and fog rose, and a little joy passed in his eyes. It was the dust and fog raised when the armored ox ran away.
"At last I met someone."
After a while, the fog was getting closer and closer, and Luo could see the man clearly.
A total of five armored oxen, each with a person sitting on his back, each with a yellow head, a black beard, dark skin, holding a two meter long horse chopper.
Luo touched the cow's neck to slow down and stop.
From the front of the five armored cattle but did not intend to slow down, keep pace, aggressive.
When the distance between the two sides was less than 300 meters, the five men sitting on the armored cow took out a stone crossbow one after another and fired five arrows at the location of Luo.
The sound of breaking the air started to attack without saying hello.
A chill flashed in Luo's eyes. He drove Nianli to stop the five crossbows with good precision. He saw that the stone arrowheads were smeared with venom.
This discovery makes Luo's eyes even colder.
At the same time, Lin Nie's eyes narrowed on the sled.
