"It's fine. The fire just now." Ye Chen said in a bland voice. He saw the guide turn his head and glance at him, and then turn his head back after somewhat panicking.
The guide must have guessed that he was sick, so Ye Chen had to be more careful. At this time, he even more so couldn't fall, if not the entire team's energy pillar would collapse, it would also give the guide more opportunities.
After walking for more than two hours, Ye Chen felt as if his legs were filled with lead, but the wind had died down a little, and he did not feel as cold as he did before. It was possible that it was because the heat was even stronger, and his only feeling right now was that of thirst, thirsty to the point that he could drink all the water they brought with them.
"Let's take a break. We've already passed the area where snakes roam." However, the condition was that Ye Chen and the rest were both trash like the people he had brought before. and the others had obviously disappointed him, after all, he was already over sixty years old, and such a strong movement made him feel that he was no longer able to take it.
The guide felt a bit of regret. If he had known that they were so strong, he wouldn't have pulled the line so long. He would have thought of ways to get rid of them earlier.
Ye Chen's body tilted, almost falling onto Ruo Qing's body. However, he quickly adjusted himself, sat steadily on the ground, took out the water bottle and drank a mouthful of water, feeling the ice-cold liquid that flowed down his throat, only then did he feel a little better.
"Gulp ~"
Xiao Fei laughed a little embarrassedly. He was obviously the one who ate the most tonight, and in the end, the one who was the fastest on the hungry side was also him. "I'm not hungry, I'm just having a stomach-ache." he insisted.
"You guys should rest first, I'll go scout ahead." After resting for a while, the guide stood up again. He patted the dirt off his body and said, "I walked too fast just now. I seem to have gotten lost."
"Don't bring anything back with you!" The big dog teased him. The guide's expression changed, but he didn't say anything. He slowly walked away.
"This old man's idea is real! We already said that we're not here to cause trouble, but look at him, and look at us like we're thieves! " The big dog grumbled in dissatisfaction and took another sip of water. "He's almost out of water. He'd better hurry and find the way. Otherwise, no one can stand us walking around day and night!"
The moment he stopped, Ye Chen felt even more cold, as though his entire body was inside an ice cellar. He hugged his chest tightly, not wanting others to see anything, Ruo Qing knew that he was in pain, so he squatted in front of him and hugged him, warming him. Although the big dog and Xiao Fei were coaxing him, Ruo Qing pretended not to hear him, and hugged Ye Chen even more tightly.
It was said that men had a motherly complex and would usually be tough as if nothing in this world could beat him. However, when he was weak, he would crave a warm embrace more than women, just like the kind that belonged to mothers.
At this moment, this was the feeling Ruo Qing's gentleness gave him. He gradually relaxed, his body no longer trembled, and he was actually about to fall asleep.
"Why isn't the old man back yet? Could it be that it was lost? " The big dog's voice pulled Ye Chen back from his dazed state. He looked at his phone and thought, it's been almost an hour, so even if he scouted further, he should still be back. Unless he doesn't want to come back.
"He may have left us." The bald eagle and Ye Chen thought the same way.
"What?!" The big dog immediately shouted, "What grudge? Tell me about it in the middle of the night? "
"What dogshit spirit beast is this?" I think it's these locals who deify themselves! " Xiao Fei said in dissatisfaction: "Those people who died in the desert might not have died in some way, it is possible that they were the ones who killed them! I saw that this guide wasn't any good thing. Realizing that he couldn't harm us, he abandoned us in order to let the desert eat us! "
Abacus had already quietly turned on his computer. No matter how many things he had, he refused to give up on his computer. The facts proved that he had brought the right one this time.
Although his phone did not have any signal, the Abacus computer had a signal, and there was also the web. Ye Chen remembered that the Abacus computer had showed off to him before, and his computer was somehow connected to the satellite. In any case, as long as he was still alive, he could guarantee that his computer would be able to function properly.
"This old thing really did abandon us!" Abacus cursed angrily. On his computer screen, there were a total of seven dots of light. One of them was separated from the other six and was moving further and further away from them. It was slow but determined.
"Captain, what should we do?" Abacus said, "My computer can only last for four hours at most."
If that happened, they would probably lose him by the time dawn breaks, and then lose themselves in this boundless desert. As expected, Ye Chen said: "Look at the map, look for the oasis, and then look for the way out. We will leave by ourselves."
"Yes!" It's not like I've never stayed in the desert, why would I have to follow him? " The big dog said angrily. However, they all knew that the map was easy to recognize, but they might not be able to safely avoid the dangers along the way.
The abacus's fingers were already moving. The bald eagle went to the front of the computer to help him memorize the road. About ten minutes later, the abacus closed the computer and said, "I already know how to get there, and I've also checked the weather. There shouldn't be any problems in two days. The time is too far away to be determined."
"The sooner the better." Ye Chen stood up again: "We should still continue walking. If we want to rest, we should rest during the day, it's not safe to walk at night."
"Are you okay?" Ruo Qing asked softly. She was worried about Ye Chen's terrifying heat.
Ye Chen waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. It was not like he had not endured the pain he was in previously, he had never delayed the mission before.
After determining the direction, they felt more at ease. They all walked forward with their heads down. If everything went well, they would arrive at a small oasis tomorrow noon where they would be able to complete their replenishment.
A man who has had a fever should understand, the soreness of the body. After taking a few anti-inflammatory drugs, Ye Chen did not feel like it was any better. They all thought that they had brought enough, but the antipyretic medicine was still given to them as a must, and Ye Chen only hoped that the anti-inflammatory medicine would help him overcome this hurdle.
