Ye Chen really enjoyed it for a while, but the ground was too cold, and he did not hold on for long, as he pulled Ruo Qing's hand and stood up, smiling: "It's so comfortable! It doesn't hurt anymore! "
Ruo Qing looked at Ye Chen with anger, but he didn't know whether what he said was true or false.
"You don't hate me, do you?" Ye Chen's face instantly fell, "Why don't I go watch the night? How can I let a girl stay watch the night?"
Ruo Qing shook her head like a rattle drum. Ye Chen's injuries had not completely healed, how could she let an injured person stand guard?
"Let me do it." Xiao Fei stood out: "Just give me a box of canned food when we eat later."
Ye Chen watched on from the side for a while, then went in to help her. No matter how Ye Chen giggled at her, his shy face was soon going to be dyed red.
Everything had been tidied up properly. A fire had been set up and several people were gathered around the fire. It was warm in front of them and cold to the touch. They were chatting as they ate their sand mixed food.
"Guide, didn't you say before that there were spirit beasts in the desert? Why can't it make the desert better? It can't feel comfortable even with this strong wind! " The big dog spit sand on the ground.
"If there were no spirit beasts to protect us, this place would be even worse." The guide could tell that the big dog didn't believe him, so he didn't say anything.
"How are you so sure that there are spirit beasts?" Ye Chen asked curiously.
Everyone looked at the guide curiously. In a place like this where there was no signal, listening to a story had become the only entertainment in front of them.
"Because the Flower of the Desert needs something to protect it." The guide said, "Otherwise, there is no way to block those greedy souls in such a harsh environment. With a Divine Beast, we can stop those demons, and even if we have to pluck, we have to do it appropriately. We can't let those people destroy the flower of the desert! "
"Why do I feel like you're talking about us?" The big dog laughed as it fought with Xiao Fei over the can in front of him.
The guide glanced at him but said nothing.
Ye Chen glanced at the guide: "Our idea is to use everything we have to the best of our abilities, because the flower of the desert can be used as medicine, it can dispel scars, and it can solve the pain of countless people, thus we have come here for the blessings of humanity, money is only an appendage, but it is not our ultimate goal."
Although Ye Chen knew that his idea was a little mystical, but hearing the guide's words, he felt even more uncomfortable. It was as if they were few and far between in the outside world, but in front of the miraculous nature, the human race was too weak. If this guide used his environment to trap them, even if they wanted to leave, they would have no way of doing so.
"Humans like to give themselves desires. A noble hat. " The guide looked up at the sky and sighed before climbing into his tent. "I've finished eating. You guys should go to bed early as well."
Ye Chen and the bald eagle looked at each other, they had an idea in their hearts, maybe they would not live a peaceful night, so the two of them planned to guard the night, and if they met with any unknown situations, it would be easier to resolve it.
They had previously considered the harsh environment of the desert, but they had never expected that the locals would have such a repulsion towards outsiders like them!
From the looks of the guide, they were all being treated as intruders.
If they were to return now, the guide would probably bring them back successfully. However, Ye Chen was unable to take this lying down, seeing that they were about to enter the deep parts of the earth, wasn't returning now equivalent to letting the flower of the desert slip away from his hands?
He truly did not believe it. Even if the world was so familiar, could this guide leave all six of them here at the same time?
Around ten o'clock, the guide woke up. Seeing that Ye Chen and the condor had not slept, he sighed, "If you don't sleep at night, you'll freeze to death. Furthermore, you don't have enough provisions, so sleeping with one more person will consume less energy."
"There's nothing I can do about it. That woman won't let me get into bed!" Ye Chen laughed.
"Abacus' feet are stinking. I don't want to sleep with him." The bald eagle casually found an excuse, and then he heard Abacus deliberately coughing. The two of them looked at each other and laughed.
On the surface, they were unsatisfied with the vulture's words, but in reality, they knew in their hearts that they were also on alert, and this couldn't help but warm Ye Chen's heart.
Seeing that the guide hadn't returned for a while, Ye Chen gave the bald eagle a look. The bald eagle followed the guide and in a short while, the two of them came back together.
"Nothing out of the ordinary. He was on the main account when I went over." The bald eagle whispered.
Ye Chen nodded and tightened the clothes on his body. The bonfire in front of him was basically lighting him up, he did not feel warm at all.
"Are you all right?" He also felt cold, but he did not feel that cold. Ye Chen had already started to shiver from the impact of the coldness.
The bald eagle placed his hand on Ye Chen's forehead and whispered: "You have a fever."
"Damn." Ye Chen cursed in a low voice right after. He felt that his body was not well, but who would have thought that he would fall for it at this critical juncture after not having a fever for eight hundred years.
"I think there's nothing much to do. You should sleep for a while. If you can't, then the two of us will stand guard together in the middle of the night."
"Forget it, I can't sleep either." Before, because he could not live in the same tent as Ruo Qing, Ye Chen shouted loudly that he was not happy to come here, but he was only joking, he would not come here to make a joke with his life.
The bald eagle took out the blanket from the tent and draped it over Ye Chen's body. He knew that with Ye Chen's temper, even if he tried to persuade him, it would be to no avail.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Chen felt a wave of tiredness, and slowly fell asleep.
Suddenly, he woke up from his sleep and looked around. His back was extremely cold. Not only because of the wind, but also because he had sensed danger!
He knew that Ye Chen's perception of danger was countless times stronger than theirs. He took out a torch, wanting to see more carefully.
