Ancient Invasion [End Times]

The 140th and fourth day after the invasion. [Second update] "It...maybe older than the age of dinosaurs."

Stepping into the oasis, the soil under your feet becomes wet and soft, surrounded by towering palm trees, reaching as high as the clouds.

Where there is water and oasis, there is usually life. It is called the land of hope and mercy in the desert.

In most of the desert oases in the world, you can find the local aborigines living there, but only here, the Dunzhekang Desert Oasis, no one has ever mentioned this magical place of hope in the desert.

Everyone who knew about Dunzhekang kept secret about this desert oasis.

If it weren't for this accidental encounter with the survivor resident formed by Chen Nan, this oasis of the devil that only exists in the local population, I don't know how long it will be before the eyes of all living beings in the world.

Among the palm groves, the clear and clear birdsong can be heard endlessly.

It's like a real oasis, full of life.

"I almost forgot that there was a desert outside." Lin Qian murmured as he walked among the palm trees.

He raised his eyes and saw only a piece of green. It was hard to imagine that beyond this green barrier, there was an endless withered and yellow Gobi.

"Then if you look closely at your feet, you will find that this place is still covered by desert, but the soil here is deep and suitable for plants like palms to take root and grow." Cheng Sheng said lightly.

Lin Qian nodded when he heard the words. He looked down, and indeed he could see a small amount of coarse gravel covering the soil layer, but it was not much, and it would not be associated with a desert at first glance.

Yang Mucuo picked up a lot of fruit under the tree and came back, rubbed it on his body a few times, and handed it to Cheng Sheng.

He looked at Cheng Sheng, put a fruit in his hand, stuffed it into his mouth, took a bite, chewed a few times and swallowed it, indicating that Cheng Sheng could eat it too.

Cheng Sheng thanked him, and bit open the fruit like Yang Mucuo. The flesh inside was egg-yellow, with a large kernel of brown kernel in the middle.

"This is a palm fruit with a slightly astringent taste, but it can bring a lot of fat energy to people. Such a palm fruit can provide us with at least one morning's hiking consumption." Cheng Sheng explained, and distributed Yang Mucuo to his Throw those fruits to others one by one.

Du Nanrong took the fruit and tried to take a bite, and the astringent taste filled his mouth, making him frown uncontrollably.

The doctor's words are too gentle, this is not a bit astringent, it is so astringent that I have no friends.

After reluctantly taking a few bites, Du Nanrong stuffed the palm nuts into his backpack, and didn't plan to eat any more unless he had to.

"The oil content of the pulp is about 40.00%. I tried to use it to prolong the life of the torch before, and it was very effective, so we can pick up some more for future use." Cheng Sheng said.

Palm fruit naturally grows on palm trees.

Lin Qian heard what the doctor said, and looked up at the palm trees.

Each tree is almost ten or twenty meters high, and the hanging fruit bunches bend the branches heavily.

There are hundreds of thousands of fruits in a bunch of large fruit clusters on the tree, but they are too tall, and no one has the ability to pick them off with bare hands without tools.

Lin Qian could only look away resentfully, and turned to the overripe fruits that had been smashed on the ground.

There are not many fruits on the ground, anyway, I put them in my bag when I see them.

"Listen, it's the sound of water." Zhang Jiuzhang stopped suddenly, pricked up his ears, and said suddenly.

Cheng Sheng and Duan Yi also heard the sound of water, but the sound of water they heard was more subtle, in all directions, it was the movement of groundwater rushing.

Usually, the formation of desert oasis is inseparable from the abundant underground water system.The vast desert oasis in front of them must mean that there is a rich underground water system underneath.

Both Du Nanrong and Lin Qian lifted their spirits: "Let's go! Find water! Fill up the kettle!"

Lin Qian shook the tinkling half-empty jug, his eyes were as bright as a hungry wolf seeing a fresh and fat lamb.

Cheng Sheng shook his head and poured cold water on the crowd, and said, "There are abundant underground water systems here. The sound of water you hear is not necessarily surface water. The sound of groundwater hidden in shallow layers will also make noise, giving travelers the wrong direction."

"If you want to find surface water, you can't rely entirely on what you hear, you have to find other evidence." Cheng Sheng said.

Cheng Sheng looked at the sky. It was nine or ten o'clock in the morning. The sun was hanging in the sky, causing Cheng Sheng to squint his eyes subconsciously.

He quickly found the target he was looking for, and said, "Look there, there are flocks of birds hovering in the sky, which means that there is likely to be surface water there."

Yang Mucuo also heard the sound of birds chirping from there. With five or six palm fruits in his arms, he quickly got up from the ground and ran towards the direction pointed by Cheng Sheng.

They quickly ran to a relatively open plain, with green aquatic plants under their feet, and loess desert all around.

The completely different appearance makes this lake oasis even more mysterious.

This is entirely the arrangement of nature.

Lin Qian and Du Nanrong looked at the open lake in front of them in surprise. It was blue and clear, and the bottom of the lake could be seen at a glance.

"It's a lake!" Lin Qian shouted.

Excitedly, Saxifraga jumped off Du Nanrong's shoulders and plunged into the lake.

Before Cheng Sheng had time to say anything, the saxifrage was in full bloom, occupying almost one-fifth of the lake surface, and he wished to soak every leaf in the lake water to absorb all the water.

——Ba Shi is very ~chirp~

Seeing Du Nanrong blinking, he couldn't help asking Cheng Sheng: "Doctor, the grass won't be soaked like this, right?"

Cheng Sheng: "...I can't."

They carefully observed their surroundings.

This place is like a lake in an ordinary desert oasis. Even on the other side of the lake, Duan Yi saw groups of camels leisurely parked by the lake from afar.

Duan Yi announced that the danger alert was lifted.

Lin Qian and the others immediately jumped into the lake, cooled their bodies down happily, and filled the water bottle again.

"Doctor! Team Duan! Come down, too!" Lin Qian shouted, "The water is so cool, it's very comfortable!"

Cheng Sheng smiled, but didn't intend to get wet in the water.

As for Duan Yi, out of personal habits, he doesn't want to let himself be in a completely relaxed state in the wild.

Seeing that Dr. Duan and Duan couldn't be called, Lin Qian turned to Yang Mucuo and shouted, "Yang Mucuo! Come here!"

Yang Mucuo seemed to be in awe of the lake. He shook his head, hugged the palm fruit, and planned to find a leaf wide enough to pack the fruit so that he could take it with him.

He looked for suitable fallen leaves around the lake, and he didn't go far.

Cheng Sheng took a few glances and saw that Yang Mucuo knew very well that he could not leave the team, so he ignored it.

He lay down on the water plants and took a deep breath: "I didn't expect to come in in the end."

"However, we have to make a quick decision, and go back to the station." He said quickly, "I always feel that Xu Ying and the others are a little uneasy staying there."

Duan Yi glanced sideways at Cheng Sheng, paused and said, "As long as you want, I can accompany you in again after everything is over."

Cheng Sheng raised his eyebrows: "Then I'll make a reservation for this itinerary first."

"it is good."

Cheng Sheng curved his mouth.

At this moment, Yang Mucuo ran up to Cheng Sheng in a panic, and scattered all the fruits in his arms all over the ground.

He widened his eyes in panic, quickly muttered a series of words that no one could understand, and kept gesticulating to let Cheng Sheng and Duan Yi follow him.

Duan Yi frowned slightly, and exchanged a glance with Cheng Sheng.

Du Nanrong and the others who were soaking in the lake were paying attention to the situation on the shore, and when they saw the situation, they came out of the water and rushed to Duan Yichengsheng's side.

I saw that, bypassing a lush bush, a huge skeleton was almost half-exposed on the soil layer, and the vicissitudes of the wind and sun and rain could be seen completely.

The skeleton is so big that even a person standing beside it doesn't seem to be as wide as one of the bones.

The majestic momentum, even a skeleton fossil, makes people feel a vague pressure and fear.

Yang Mucuo knelt down on the side with a "plop" and kept bowing to the skeleton fossil.

Both Lin Qian and Du Nanrong were shocked. They looked at Cheng Sheng and Duan Yi in unison: "Doctor..."

Cheng Sheng frowned tightly.

He approached the fossil, squatted down, and tentatively touched the upper skeleton with his fingers.

The smooth touch, which was completely different from sand and stone, collided with the fingertips, and Cheng Sheng's pupils shrank slightly, and then a heart palpitation hit his chest violently.

He quickly retracted his hand, frowning and staring at the huge fossil in front of him.

"What's wrong?" Duan Yi's voice sounded beside his ears, with a deep and steady strength, which made people feel at ease.

Cheng Sheng took a deep breath and shook his head slightly.

"Seriously... What's so big? Is this a dinosaur fossil?" Lin Qian asked.

Cheng Sheng paused and said, "It's not a dinosaur fossil, it...maybe older than the dinosaur era."
