Living on a deserted island, the cold female president regards me as king

The tall body of the camel crashed to the ground, and the brains mixed with red and white flowed into the sand, while the other camels stood there peacefully as if nothing had happened, not feeling sad for the death of their companions at all.

"Come and help!"

I yelled at the fire monkey.

A camel can live for half a month without water, and more than a month without food, thanks to the fat-storing hump on its back and a thing called a water float in the rumen, the water stored in it should be It can relieve our urgent needs.

At least it can support us for a while longer.

Huohou looked at me holding the knife with a strange expression, and asked hesitantly, "Do we really want to drink the blood of this big guy, raw?"

"Do not."

I shook my head, and while looking for a suitable place to dissect, I said, "The more you drink the blood, the thirstier it becomes. It's useless. What our body lacks is water."

The moment the corpse was cut open, the steaming internal organs of the camel flowed out, emitting an indescribable smell.

But he could only endure the smell and rolled up his sleeves, and took out the camel's stomach from a pile of viscera. There were about five to six liters of water in the water float on the rumen, but the smell was not very pleasant.

But now we are all thirsty to death, so we can't take care of so much.

Although each person does not add much water on average, after drinking a little water, the whole person feels much more comfortable.

I lay on the sand in a daze. Even now, the sun-baked sand is still warm. We have walked too much today, and we are still in poor health.

We didn't even have anyone to watch the night, so we just lay on the ground and fell asleep without any protection.

The next day, while I was still in the dream, I felt a whirlwind.

When I opened my eyes, the fire monkey grabbed my shoulder excitedly and shook it.

"Wake up! Are we saved?"

saved?What is saved?
Although my mind is still a little confused, I am also puzzled. There is an endless desert for hundreds of miles. Who will come to rescue us in this kind of place where birds don't shit?
But when I woke up, I realized that maybe we were really saved.

Just to the south, if you try your best to look far away, you can vaguely see the shadow of the tree.

oasis!

A big rock hanging in my heart fell to the ground, and the whole person became relaxed and energetic. If there is an oasis, it proves that there must be a water source. If there is enough drinkable water, we will not die of dehydration.

There are four rivers passing through the Taklamakan Desert, and it is not uncommon to have oases.

But it seemed that only the three of us were excited about the oasis, while Wang Gang and that team member didn't show any sign of being happy.

"Although this is the first time I have come to the hinterland of the desert, I have stayed here for nearly four years, but I have never heard of an oasis near the hinterland of the desert."

Wang Gang murmured softly.

"too weird……"

Although he is frowning, he agrees with our idea of ​​rushing directly to the oasis.

We're in a tough place right now, and we don't have a choice anymore.

Even if the oasis we see is just a mirage, we have to see it.

But when we set off towards the oasis, I realized what the real Wangshan ran to death. From morning to night, when it was dark, we were still a long way from the oasis.

The desire for water lures us forward.

By midnight we were so exhausted that we didn't even have the strength to move our legs even though the oasis was in sight.

So, we killed two camels that night, and it was the only time in the past few days that we had enough water.

The next day, what was originally carried by the two camels became our burden now.

But this does not affect our speed at all.

But when we climbed up a very steep hillside and gradually walked into the 'oasis'.

We just discovered that it looks a little different from what we imagined.

A large piece of Populus euphratica forest stretches for miles, but there is no life here. Populus euphratica has been dead for a long time, and the tree body has become black and even carbonized. If you grab the bark and pull it hard, you can break off a large piece.

Compared to an oasis, I prefer to believe that this is a cemetery.

"If I'm not mistaken, this place should have been under the desert. A few days ago, a huge sandstorm blown away a lot of sand, so that this place could see the sun again."

"Does that mean there's no water here?"

"Not necessarily. Since the vegetation here used to be lush, it proves that there must be a source of water. It's just hard to say whether it still exists after so long."

The answer Yang Hui gave was very disappointing, but no matter what the answer was, we had to bite the bullet and go inside.

Now that you've come here, and you can't find water, it's a dead end.

It might as well continue to walk in, maybe you can still see a glimmer of life.

I walked in the front, with dead Populus euphratica forests on both sides, all the way uphill, we walked very hard, but when we reached the top of the slope, I suddenly found that the road became steeper, and at a glance, it was all downhill. And where we are now, the terrain should be low enough.

Why is something wrong?
Just when I was thinking wildly, I suddenly felt that I stepped on a very soft thing under my feet. I looked down and saw yellow sand under my feet.

But why is the sand here softer than other places?

I couldn't help being curious, I immediately took out an engineering shovel and dug the sand on the spot, wanting to see what was underneath, Yang Hui and others who were following me also stopped, and they looked at me suspiciously .

I only dug down less than ten centimeters, and some black lines appeared in the sand.

This is...hair?
I was startled in my heart, and soon, the head of a dead person was revealed in front of my eyes. It was a female corpse. The corpse looked very fresh, and it must have been dead not long ago.

And the style of the collar is similar to that of Wang Gang and the others.

Could it be a member of the advance team?
"Hands up!"

I shouted hastily.

The body was not buried very deep, and the sand covering it was so loose that it didn't take much effort to get it out.

But the death of the deceased was extremely horrifying. She curled up like a bird's claw and grabbed the ground, seemingly desperately trying to crawl away from this place.The clothes had been torn and tattered, and the exposed skin was full of blood holes, only the face was unscathed.

The white, swollen face of the dead was staring round, as if it had been soaked in water for a long time before dying.

It instantly reminded us of the skinny man who wanted to die a few days ago, because the blood holes on the two corpses were exactly the same, and those scorpions must have done it.

But what we can't figure out is, where does the water come from?
"Before her advance team set off, the geological survey commissioner sent by the organization... I think, we have arrived at the place, this is the place where a whole army was wiped out, and judging by her appearance, she should have desperately moved from that direction I crawled over, but the eggs on my body hatched..."

Yang Hui said, pointing to a deeper place in the Populus euphratica forest.

This is quite bad news, I couldn't help but look at Huohou and Wang Gang, they were also hesitant.

The depths of the Populus euphratica forest is not necessarily what we urgently need, drinkable water, but those scorpions that will make people die painfully are absolutely indispensable.

For a while, we were caught in a dilemma.
