1498 Mirage

Scorpions definitely rank high on the list of creatures that humans hate.

Not only because of its ugly appearance, hair-raising toxicity, but also the needle on its tail.

Wanyan Lie never took the scorpion into his eyes.

A few scorpions, or even hundreds or thousands of scorpions may be a meal for him, but he has never seen so many scorpions.

Scorpions turn the desert sea into a sea of ​​scorpions!

Those golden lights were clearly reflected from the scorpion's back. Wanyanlie's sharp eyesight could even see a tiny "grassland" formed by the scorpion's tail needles, but it was definitely a creepy grassland.

Why are there so many scorpions?

Although the scorpions did not crawl quickly, they crawled in their direction firmly and resolutely.

Looking at the scale of the scorpions, it would be impossible to get around them on horseback.

The stone camel rolled down the desert and shouted: "Run!"

Wanyan Lie pulled Shen Yue and shouted: "Let's go." He finally understood why the desert fox ran for his life like that. Some things were absolutely invincible to man.

He arrived first, descended from the sand dune, turned over on a strong horse, and shouted to Shen Yue, "Shen Yue, ride away!"

In Wanyan Lie's view, he had won four horses and only chose one to ride on, which was a great honor to Shen Yue.

In a life-or-death situation, it is especially important to save energy.

Shen Yue descended the sand dune and saw several people with ashen faces. He said in a deep voice: "The weak ones mount their horses."

Weak is not a good term in the first place, but Zhao Ji was overjoyed when he heard this. He considered himself weak and hurriedly climbed onto a horse and called his daughter, "Saeyue, get on the horse, get on the horse quickly!"

Shi Ying hesitated slightly.

Shen Yue said, "Shiying, Qing'er, Wanyan Xiyin, you get on your horse first. Leave some water and food for those who are walking."

Wanyan Xiyin was startled. He had not expected that Shen would consider his injury. He was indescribably grateful, but before getting on the horse, he still put Shiying and Qing'er on the horse.

Wanyanlie sneered and said, "You just like to be a good person." Without further words, he galloped towards the Desert Fox.

His choice is also smart, because he knows that the animals that can survive in the desert are definitely not tigers and leopards, but foxes. Wild cats are small and durable animals. Since the horse thief leader is called a desert fox, his ability to survive is still some.

Sometimes, you still have to trust the choices of professionals.

Li Bin and Wang Shuangquan were panic-stricken. When they saw the horseman walking forward, they had no choice but to keep up.

When Yang Yao saw Shen Yue looking over, he didn't complain. He just said: "If Mr. Shen becomes the leader of the water village, he will be hundreds of times stronger than Yang."

Sighing lightly, Yang Yaodao said, "Etc. the rich and the poor, the rich and the poor, and think about making the world a less disgusting place. Yang has forgotten these things for a long time."

Shen Yue stared at Yang Yao and said slowly, "There is no beginning for success, and there is an end for success. Only by never forgetting your original intention can you achieve success."

Yang Yao was startled, feeling that Shen Yue had something to say.

Shen Yue greeted, "Let's go."

The stone camel did not ride a horse, but was indifferent. He also walked in the direction Wanyan Lie left, still walking in no hurry. Shen Yue and Yang Yao followed him frequently, knowing that the stone camel in this desert knows best. Ways to survive.

Being able to remain calm and save energy despite fear is a very wise approach.

After everyone walked a certain distance, they looked back and saw that the top of the sand dune seemed to be shaking slightly. After a while, golden light spread down from the top of the sand dune, which was quite gorgeous.

But everyone couldn't appreciate the scenery, knowing that it was more like the call of death - because countless scorpions passed over the top of the dunes and slid down the sand.

Those scorpions are actually following their whereabouts?

Although Wanyan Lie rode his horse ahead, he did not rush forward because without Shen Yue, he knew that he would never be able to crack the secret of Shambhala with his own strength.

Shituo looked at Wanyan Lie and others who could still be seen in front of him, and suddenly said, "Mr. Shen, I don't know whether to say something or not?"

Shen Yue immediately said: "Please speak."

Shituo said slowly, "In the desert, horses and camels are different animals."

What he said was almost nonsense. Zhao Gao had never done anything like referring to a deer as a camel.

Yang Yao suddenly realized, "That's why the camels should move slowly, while the horses should run at a gallop."

Shituo nodded slightly, "Mr. Shen's companion is riding a horse, so it is best to run faster, otherwise he will never be able to survive the exhaustion of the sun."

Shen Yue frowned and said, "Shituo, I want to ask you something."

Yang Yao thought to himself that the only people who could still be polite at this time were the two people in front of him.

Shituo said "hmm".

Shen Yue pondered, "Horses and camels are indeed different, so as far as I know, although horse thieves are very powerful in the desert, there are usually water sources near where they rob."

Shituo hesitated slightly and finally nodded.

"Looking at the water the Desert Fox and the others brought, if we also take into account the drinking water of the horses, it seems that if they run hard, they can only have a day's reserve at most." Shen Yue analyzed, "According to their safety, it means that they were originally You can reach an oasis in one day...or at least a place with water supply."

Yang Yao nodded secretly, thinking that what Shen Yue said was very reasonable. These horse thieves looked tough, but they definitely had their own concerns. When horse thieves robbed in the desert, they also needed supplies to protect themselves, so that they had the strength to rob.

It is absolutely impossible to say that the Desert Fox does not leave a way out for itself.

Shituo didn't nod.

Shen Yue told the key, "But you said that there will be no water available for three days."

Shituo said slowly, "We have been walking for a day, and walking and riding horses are completely different algorithms. If we have horses and don't hesitate to use horsepower, we can rush to the water source in one day."

"So the water source is in the northwest?"

When Shen Yue asked, Shituo nodded, and then said: "But the Desert Fox is heading southwest."

Shi Tuo was silent for a moment, "I'm not a desert fox."

Of course what he meant was - he couldn't understand why the Desert Fox went in the opposite direction.

Yang Yao suddenly said: "Is the Desert Fox trying to bypass those scorpions?"

As he spoke, he looked back and suddenly showed a look of surprise. Rubbing his eyes, Yang Yao was sure that he had seen it correctly, and finally said: "The scorpion is gone?"

Everyone looked back and saw that the bright golden Scorpion Sea had returned to its original appearance as a desert!

Just now, they saw countless scorpions crossing the sand dunes and spreading in their direction, but the scorpions disappeared?

This is simply like a miracle.

It can even be said to be impossible.

Wang Shuangquan was surprised and said, "How is it possible? I saw those scorpions just now. Why did they disappear in a moment?"

Shen Yue stared at the sea of ​​sand where scorpions once appeared, and was silent.

"Could it be that... what we saw was a mirage?"

Yang Yao said in surprise: "I heard that in the desert, an illusion often appears, which looks real but is imaginary. In other words, some people see an oasis ahead, but they try their best to climb to the oasis.
