Lack of water and food, this is the dilemma that a group of hundreds of people are facing now. In fact, their group has brought enough drinking water and food this time, but this so-called "enough" is based on the fact that they just passed through the Yellow Sand Desert.
Standard, they had no idea that a group of people would get lost in this vast yellow sand desert that stretched for hundreds of miles, so they had no sense of conservation in water use, which also resulted in drinking water that should have been able to last for a long time.
After just two weeks, I was running out of money.
At this time, many of the hundreds of people in the team were ordered to save water. However, at this time, Princess Lucia, Saint Ibra and others did not know how to save and bathed every day (Saint Ibra updated more
How many times a day do you take a shower), this kind of waste of water is just courting death!!
Because of the noble status of Lucia and Saint Ibra, no one in the team dared to express even the slightest dissatisfaction with their waste of water, or even report the current situation. To those servants, the master's luxury is taken for granted.
Yes, in order to satisfy their masters, they will dig out part of their own resources to fill it, because failure to do so is likely to cause dissatisfaction or even whipping from the masters, but in Yingfeng's view, this behavior will make them and their party
People die faster!!
Sighing helplessly, Yingfeng decided to let himself be a "big bad guy" for once. He rode a camel and walked slowly to the carriage where Lucia was riding, and said seriously: "Lord Lucia, you have
I want to report something to you."
"Ah, um, what's the matter?" Lucia's childish voice came from the car, with a hint of laziness in it. A murderous cold air came from the car, although she didn't say anything.
, but Yingfeng knew that this cold air was Ganfield's warning to Yingfeng that "if you break in, you will die."
Yingfeng angrily ignored the cold air coming from Ganfield. He coughed twice and said: "Lady Lucia, when reporting this matter, I hope you can, ah, change your clothes and come out first.
One trip.”
"No! Why? It's so hot..."
"No, no!" Yingfeng gave a rare tough moment. At this moment, he didn't know who was the master. He glanced at the car where the saint was, and then added: "Lady Lucia, this matter is very serious.
It’s important, I must explain it clearly to you. Later I will ask the Holy Lady to come over and explain it together. Let’s make it clear first, this is really a very important matter!”
Lucia's expression suddenly brightened when she heard that even Saint Ibra had to be invited. Her little head was gently immersed in the water, and she breathed a few times to make the water bubble. She was helpless.
He said: "Ah, um... okay."
"It must be something urgent! Otherwise I will kill you." Lucia finally added a small threat as a threat. It was obvious that this girl was very reluctant to leave the bucket.
Yingfeng breathed a sigh of relief and rode a camel to the car where Saint Ibrah was riding. Words with almost the same meaning came out of Yingfeng's mouth. Saint was very serious, but it seemed that Yingfeng was speaking
He agreed to Yingfeng's request with a very important look.
After a while, Saint Ibra and Princess Lucia were all gathered in a car, facing the wind without wasting any time. The first sentence went straight to the point: "Holy Lady, Lady Lucia, we are short of water."
The saint was stunned.
Lucia was also stunned.
Ganfield was also stunned.
Short of water?
What the hell is this?
"Didn't you have enough drinking water before?" Ganfield spoke first.
Saint Ibra and Lucia both showed similar questioning looks, obviously not believing Yingfeng's statement.
Yingfeng glanced at the delicate and expensive guys on the field angrily and said: "Sufficient, this is a relative term. It was indeed sufficient originally, but we didn't expect to be trapped in this yellow sand desert for such a long time.
Time. Originally, it would take six days to pass the standard water supply through the Yellow Sand Desert. We have prepared twelve days of water, twice the amount. How can we say it is not enough? But the problem is that we are all trapped in
We've been in this desert for two weeks, and we're still able to survive until now because we, the people, are saving water!"
"It's true that some people still take baths every day and don't know how to save money..." Yingfeng muttered softly, and the blame in his words was already quite obvious.
Lucia and others looked at each other and suddenly remembered that everyone around them had a strange smell. Before, they had blamed these guys for not taking a shower, but now it seems that things obviously happened for a reason!
"So, ladies, please save water in the coming days. It will save you trouble when taking a bath..." Yingfeng wanted to say something more, but at this time Saint Ibra suddenly shouted "No!"
, was so frightened that Yingfeng almost fell to the ground in a hurry. People who didn't know thought that Yingfeng just wanted to molest her!
"Why, why not?" Yingfeng looked at Ibrahimovic, who had the biggest reaction, and asked directly.
Ibra looked at Yingfeng very seriously and said word by word: "I, I am a saint! As a saint, it is natural to keep a clean and tidy body. If you communicate with the angel in an unclean voice, the angel will definitely
He will think that the Saint is disrespectful to him, and then the Lord Angel will vent his anger on the Sky Empire!"
"Then, Lady Saint, can you temporarily interrupt your communication with Lord Angel before passing through the Yellow Sand Desert?" Yingfeng tried to come up with a compromise.
Saint Ibra shook her head seriously and said word by word: "No! As a saint, how can I not pray for a day? If I must do that, then I would rather save the drinking water.
Come down and use it for bathing and purification!”
The Holy Lady was still stubborn and could not be persuaded no matter what. Lucia and Gamfield both showed a rare wry smile. They suddenly felt that compared to the Holy Lady, they were really too easily persuaded.
Yingfeng also felt that if this continued, he might not be able to convince the saint. After thinking about it again, Yingfeng could only explain to the saint in detail the current water shortage, and clearly pointed out the difference between the water needed for bathing and drinking water.
What a huge gap there is. To put it simply, the amount of water needed to bathe once is more than ten times the amount of water used for drinking every day. This clearly points out that the so-called compromise before Saint Ibrahim simply cannot be established.
After dilly-dallying for a long time, Saint Ibra finally agreed to reduce the number of baths to once a day. This was the biggest concession she had ever made.
"Mashaka, now that you have to reveal the water shortage to Lady Lucia and Lady Saint, tell me honestly, how many days can the remaining water last us?" Gan
Phil got out of the carriage, walked to the side facing the wind and asked seriously. The group of them had been trapped here for two weeks, and there were some things that they needed to know. And because they didn’t want Lucia to worry,
That's why Ganfield stepped out of the carriage and asked Yingfeng alone.
Yingfeng looked at Ganfield solemnly and said, "If we use it sparingly, I think we can still sustain it for three days."
"Only three days!?" Ganfield frowned.
"Not three days, but at most three days!" Yingfeng looked at the endless yellow sand around him and said word by word. He also knew that the current situation was dangerous. If there was no water, a person could only survive for three days at most.
Within six days at most, they must find a way to leave the Yellow Sand Desert, otherwise they will have no choice but to kill the camels used on the road to quench their thirst with their blood. If there are no camels,
By the time……
He shook his head slightly to get rid of the unnecessary thoughts in his mind, and Yingfeng said no more. He began to secretly regret that he had not listened to General Huang Sha's advice before, and also hated himself for not hiring a local as a guide in the desert. After all,
, in their opinion at that time, the yellow sand desert only stretched for a few hundred miles, and this distance passed within a few days. How could they have thought that they would get lost one day!
Ganfield stopped talking. She glanced at Yingfeng indifferently, then got into the carriage again.
The group of people walked for half a day in the desert, and just when the sun was about to set and the sky turned dim, a cloud of white sand suddenly rose in the distance.
The patch of sand and dust was not very obvious at first, but as time went by, it did not recede but became more obvious. Looking into the wind with good eyesight, he took a look from a distance, and his ears moved slightly as if he heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance.
, his eyes narrowed and his expression became a little more solemn. It is difficult to meet caravans in the desert, and according to rumors, no caravans have set out from the Huangsha Fortress in the past month. In theory, there are no foreign caravans to cross.
Crossing the Huangsha Desert to go to the cities around the Huangsha Fortress, and the Huangsha Desert is also very dangerous. If not necessary, many businessmen will choose to take a detour. What is the group of people they saw so far away?
Quite clear.
"Huangsha horse thief!" Yingfeng muttered secretly, and rode a camel to the car where Lucia was riding. He turned over and jumped off the camel and put on a posture of accepting the challenge. The meaning was self-evident.
Those in the team, like Yingfeng, who were aware of what was going to happen, also took a fighting stance. They drew out the weapons from their waists and licked their chapped lips, already thinking that these horse thieves were just idiots delivering water.
