As the sky grew darker, the drones and armed helicopters finally left unwillingly, but there were still planes flying overhead occasionally.
The people on the plane used thermal imaging to search underneath. However, due to the distance and vast area, the thermal imaging was not easy to use. In the end, no trace of Ning Beichen and Linglong was found.
"Are they gone?"
After a day of pursuit, Linglong said extremely exhausted.
Especially since they lost their camels, and their food, water sources and other things all depended on the camels.
Fortunately, not long ago, Ning Beichen found two scattered bottles of mineral water, a few packets of biscuits and some clothes nearby, allowing the two of them to replenish their supplies to a limited extent.
"We're leaving for now, but we'll be back tomorrow, so we have to get out of their encirclement tonight."
Ning Beichen took a sip of water, swallowed a piece of biscuit and said.
This time they truly had a narrow escape from death.
If it was just Ning Beichen, he wouldn't care and would have the confidence to escape, but it would be extremely difficult to take Linglong with him.
If a grandmaster is cruel, he will be fine even if he doesn't eat or drink for a week.
But Linglong is an ordinary person, she can't do it without eating or drinking.
If she didn't eat, she wouldn't have the energy to escape. If she didn't drink water, she might not be able to survive even a day in the desert, so Ning Beichen left as much water and food as possible for her.
Even Ning Beichen felt it was too difficult at this moment.
In a world dominated by thermal weapons, Ning Beichen can block bullets, but cannot block missiles. If he is hit by a missile, he will also turn into flying ash.
And this is also the reason for the gradual decline of martial arts, because no matter how high a person's martial arts is, he will eventually find that there is no use for it. This situation will make martial arts people desperate.
"Ning Beichen, can we go back alive?"
Linglong's lack of energy was not just due to hunger, but a feeling of being in a desperate situation.
"It will definitely work. I said, if I am alive, you will be fine."
Ning Beichen said to her firmly.
"The helicopter has left, we have to be on our way soon."
Ning Beichen said as he looked at the helicopter leaving the sky.
This time, in order to deal with them, Shenzongting went crazy. They searched for them day and night, as if they wanted to see people alive and corpses after death.
Linglong stood up feebly. She was in shock and highly nervous during the day, and she had to rush on her way again at night. Not long after, she couldn't walk anymore.
"Ning Beichen, why don't we surrender? I can't do it anymore."
Linglong sat weakly on the sand and said.
Of course, she was just talking casually, so naturally she couldn't really surrender. If she really surrendered, even if Shenzongting didn't kill her, she would probably be imprisoned until she died.
"Stop saying such discouraging words, I will carry you away."
Ning Beichen stopped and said.
"Hey, I knew you wouldn't leave me alone."
Linglong happily lay on Ning Beichen's back. There was no such thing as embarrassment to her.
Ning Beichen didn't laugh at her, because he knew Linglong very well and knew that she really couldn't walk. If she still had some strength, she wouldn't do such a thing.
Ning Beichen walked swiftly on the desert carrying Linglong, which weighed less than 100 kilograms, and even used Qinggong to make the journey at the expense of his internal strength.
Without transportation, it is not easy to walk in the desert. Ordinary humans cannot walk very far in the desert in an hour.
But Ning Beichen had Qinggong, and his speed was no slower than transportation. After traveling in the middle of the night, he had traveled more than 200 kilometers, and he also discovered a small oasis with a lake.
"This place is relatively hidden, and I chose a direction they didn't expect. We should be safe for the time being. Let's rest here for a while."
Ning Beichen put down Linglong and said.
Linglong was swaying dizzy. Although she didn't have to walk and was being carried by Ning Beichen, the long-term bumps were actually very uncomfortable for her.
Next, Ning Beichen and Linglong replenished a lot of water, and then took a bath in the lake.
Ning Beichen also caught a few fish in the lake in the dark, brought back some usable cacti, and dug a hidden sand cave in a leeward sandy area.
Then he made a small bonfire in the sand cave and roasted the fish, and Linglong and Linglong ate it invisibly.
The packs of biscuits that Ning Beichen picked up earlier were long gone, but now something entered his stomach, which instantly revived Linglong with full blood.
After eating and drinking, Ning Beichen extinguished the bonfire, and while it was still dark outside, the two of them continued on their way. The farther they went, the safer they would be. Only when they left the border of Rome could they escape.
Ning Beichen did not let Linglong walk, but continued to carry her on his back, using Qinggong to fly across the desert.
Before dawn, Ning Beichen continued to find a safe place and repeated his old tricks, dug a sand hole and hid in it with Linglong.
Because during the day, there are not only planes monitoring their whereabouts, but also satellites in the sky. If you are exposed outside at this time, you will be easily found by them.
While they were hiding in the sand cave to rest, three people found the first sand cave dug by Ning Beichen.
Moreover, one of them judged the time that Ning Beichen and the others left by the temperature of the extinguished bonfire, and then the three of them continued to track in their direction.
These three people were not soldiers, but super strong men from the Shenzong Court. They followed them all the way in their dune buggies.
About an hour later, the three of them stopped. There were no footprints left by Ning Beichen on the desert. Even if there were his footprints, they were blown away by the sand early in the morning. This was only because Ning Beichen insisted on using Qinggong to travel.
However, these three people did not rely on footprints to find Ning Beichen, but a strange crystal ball.
"We are not far from the Holy Grail. They should be in the area nearby. Let's search separately."
The man holding the crystal ball said.
Soon the three people started searching around, and they were not very far from where Ning Beichen and the others were.
Ning Beichen and Linglong also didn't expect that the people tracking them relied not on their traces, but on the Holy Grail that Linglong put in her bag.
"Ning Beichen, look, this cup is glowing."
Linglong, who was bored in the sand cave, saw her backpack glowing. She opened it and found that the Holy Grail she took from the Shenzongting treasury was emitting a circle of white light like a light bulb.
Ning Beichen, who was originally lying on the ground, suddenly thought of something when he saw the glowing Holy Grail, and instantly jumped up like a jumping fish.
"No, they're here."
"How could it be? We didn't go out."
Linglong didn't quite believe it.
"It's the Holy Grail. They're after the Holy Grail."
Ning Beichen said to Linglong with an ugly expression.
