Chen Yang's optimism was exhausted in just one hour.
The two of them moved forward along the canyon. For a full hour, they did not find any place where they could get water.
"Honey, it seems we are not very lucky this time."
Chen Yang sighed and said.
As he spoke, he looked up at the sky and judged by the color of the sky: "It's almost nightfall. We have to find a place to spend the night first."
Logan nodded tiredly.
During the next hour's journey, she was unwilling and unwilling to let Chen Yang waste his energy needlessly, and kept following Chen Yang's footsteps with perseverance.
Tang Wan felt that her eyes were dim, her mouth was dry, and her throat felt like smoke was coming out.
She had never been so thirsty.
"Are we...looking for a cave?"
Logan felt that he was speaking normally, but when the voice reached his ears, it was so hoarse and weak.
Chen Yang nodded, licked his chapped lips, and praised: "My wife is so smart."
"The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is too large. It can kill people from the heat during the day and freeze to death at night."
"If we don't find a shelter from the wind like a cave, we won't survive the night."
Chen Yang pulled Tang Wan and tried his best to provide her with help. At the same time, he looked around, as if he was looking for something?
Tang Wan asked cooperatively: "Chen Yang, are you still looking for water?"
It doesn't look like there's any water around here.
"No, I'm looking for grass."
Chen Yang's eyes were still searching everywhere.
Tang Wan was a little confused and subconsciously asked: "Are we eating grass?"
In her mind, she imagined a lot of messy things like grass being eaten and milk being squeezed out.
Chen Yang burst out laughing: "What are you thinking about, wife?"
"I'm looking for weeds, hay, and dead branches."
"The dead branches are to start a fire, and the weeds are to spread on the ground to prevent our body heat from escaping from the ground."
As Chen Yang said, his eyes suddenly lit up and he pulled Tang Wan towards the corner.
"Look, baby!"
Tang Wan followed what Chen Yang pointed out and saw that there were large areas of dead grass and dead branches under the mountain wall, as if plants that had once flourished had finally survived the heat and dryness of the desert.
Logan was a little funny.
She had almost never seen Chen Yang with such bright eyes, well, except when he looked at her.
As a result, he seemed so excited now because of some dead branches and hay.
Logan asked jokingly: "Are all these grasses dead?"
Chen Yang carefully picked up a wooden stick in his hand and said: "To be precise, it was sunburned to death."
"Some things go against common sense, but they are true."
"In the desert, there is actually never a shortage of water."
Tang Wan was surprised.
She really thought that the desert was caused by lack of water.
Chen Yang held a wooden stick and kept beating on the dead branches and grass.
"The precipitation in the desert is actually much higher than in many places."
"It just doesn't hold water on the surface."
"Under the desert, a large number of underground rivers are flowing. The desert is not short of water."
Halfway through his words, Chen Yang suddenly became calm and pulled Tang Wan behind him.
"careful!"
It turned out that Tang Wan was so engrossed in listening that she accidentally stepped into the grass and dead branches.
Chen Yang's pull was so strong that Tang Wan was almost pulled up and flew behind him.
