When Zhuo Ye finished shouting the last words, Feng Lince finally reacted. He opened his eyes hard and murmured weakly: "Ye'er... I will not abandon Ye'er...
I will take you out of the desert...I will definitely..."
It turns out... is this really the case... is taking her out of the desert the motivation that keeps him going until now? Zhuo Ye burst into tears...
"Don't... don't cry... Ye'er... I... I was just... a little tired..." Feng Linche said intermittently.
Yes! She can't cry! There is no more water in her body for her to consume luxuriously! Zhuo Ye wiped his tears with the back of his hand. When he looked at Feng Lince again, he saw that he was about to close his eyes again...
…
"No! Don't sleep!" Zhuo Ye shouted hurriedly, raised Feng Lince's head, and handed the water bag to his lips: "Drink water..."
"Okay, I won't sleep..." Feng Lince tried his best to open his eyes again and pushed the water bag from his mouth: "Ye'er, I'm not thirsty..."
Zhuo Ye didn't say much. He raised his head and poured the last sip of water from the water bag into his mouth. Then he lowered his head and pressed his lips to Feng Lince's lips. While Feng Lince was stunned, Zhuo Ye didn't say much.
, and fed him all the water in his mouth...
After Zhuo Ye's lips left his mouth, Feng Lince finally reacted. He looked at Zhuo Ye with a complicated expression: "Ye'er... you..."
Zhuo Ye gave Feng Linche a reluctant smile: "Feng Linche, you must hold on..."
"Ye'er..."
Zhuo Ye lifted up his sleeves and glanced at the time. It was 5:28 in the morning, and there was still some time before the sun would rise...
"I'll go look for water nearby and I'll be back soon. You have to wait for me!"
"No...Ye'er...I'll go..." Feng Lince said, struggling to get up.
"Be obedient, I promise you, no matter what, I will definitely come back! What you have to do now is to work hard to stay awake and wait obediently for me to come back..."
"No! I'll go with you..." Feng Lince said with all his strength. How could he let her wander alone in the desert? How could he rest assured...
Zhuo Ye reached out and held Feng Lince's face, stared into his eyes, and said extremely seriously: "I believe you will take me out of the desert! But before you regain your strength! The first thing we have to work hard to do is survive.
Go down! So, please believe me! Okay?"
"Ye'er..." Feng Linche murmured as if he had been bewitched, "I believe you..." After the words were spoken, Feng Linche grinned bitterly. In his current situation, he was indeed in his heart.
He had more than enough but not enough power... He suddenly felt that he was so useless...
Zhuo Ye breathed a sigh of relief and stood up. Just as he was about to leave, Feng Linche suddenly reached out and pulled the hem of her skirt: "Ye'er... I only give you one hour... Within one hour, if you don't
When I come back, I will look for you..."
Hearing this, Zhuo Ye couldn't help but squat down again, caressed Feng Linche's cheek, and promised: "Okay! Just one hour!"
After thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone from his sleeve, called up the MP3 function, selected external playback, maximized the volume, then put it into Feng Lince's hand, and said softly: "Songs from my hometown are stored here for an hour.
Nai, if I don't come back, just press the 'play button' and I will follow the lead of the song and I will definitely find you!"
It is early in the morning, there is only some breeze, and the wind and sand are not as strong as during the day. I put my mobile phone outside. Although I can't expect the sound to travel too far, I can still hear it within a certain distance.
Although Zhuo Ye had a good sense of direction, the nearby sand dunes all looked the same. To be honest, she was really afraid that she would not be able to find her way back. With the guidance of the singing voice on her mobile phone, she was somewhat relieved...
"Okay..." Feng Lince held the phone tightly in his hand and nodded slightly.
An hour? That is to say, within two hours, she must rush back... She can't let Feng Lince drag his exhausted body around to look for her...
Moreover, she really didn't dare to leave for too long. When the sun rose and the wind blew, the sand dunes moved too fast. It would be difficult for her to find him then...
Zhuo Ye took heavy steps, facing the morning light, and walked eastward...
She didn't dare to imagine that she would be able to find a water source within an hour. As long as she could find some non-toxic, water-rich plants, she would be satisfied...
In the past few days, they had taken shelter from the sun during the day and traveled at night. Although it could slow down the loss of water in the body and facilitate walking in the desert, night vision was affected after all. Even if they encountered any edible plants, they would probably miss them.
…
Zhuo Ye stumbled away for a long time, and there was no other color except golden yellow. She felt that she had reached the extreme level of panic and despair! But there was a voice in her heart that kept telling her, Zhuo Ye, you have to persevere! You must persist.
You must persist! Don’t give up! You will definitely find plants that can extend your life, and there is someone waiting for you to go back...
Suddenly, she stumbled, and Zhuo Ye stumbled over something! Before she could get up, she suddenly saw a small animal not far ahead, jumping up as if it was frightened!
Zhuo Ye was startled. He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, only to see a small, sandy gray mouse-like thing. It turned out to be a jerboa!
When Zhuo Ye struggled to get up, the jerboa had already escaped and disappeared, but Zhuo Ye had great hope in his heart! Jerboas feed on insects and plants. Since there are jerboas nearby, it must be OK.
Find edible plants!
Zhuo Ye turned around and saw that what tripped her was a fist-sized stone, so he ignored it and chased after the jerboa in the direction where it disappeared...
After walking for a while, Zhuo Ye finally found some rhubarb and Haloxylon ammodendron, picked some and pocketed them in his skirt. Zhuo Ye sighed inwardly, these things are barely edible, but they are far from enough water!
Unwilling to give up, Zhuo Ye climbed up a large sand dune in front of her again. Zhuo Ye raised her head and looked forward. A wave of ecstasy instantly spread to her huge limbs! That was... a cactus?
Zhuo Ye was so excited that tears filled his eyes. He tucked the hem of his skirt with plants around his waist and stumbled down the sand dune...
There are not too many cacti in front of us, only a small piece, about a dozen or so, but they are very thick and full. The largest one is about one meter high!
Zhuo Ye couldn't care less and used his folding knife to cut the roots of the largest and tallest cactus...
After placing it on the cactus, Zhuo Ye used a knife to cut off some of the hard thorns and burrs on the top, then dragged the fat cactus and prepared to walk back. Although she wanted to take away all the cactus nearby, she still couldn't
Knowing that she couldn't do it alone now, she raised her head and took a rough note of the direction and location, planning to provide first aid and then come back.
She raised her wrist to look at the time. Oops! There were less than forty minutes left in the time stipulated by Feng Linche! She had to rush back...
The same sky, the same vast wilderness,
There is no longer wilderness in the desert, and love flows smoothly in the town.
Let this glass of strong wine follow me to the end of the world,
You always lower your head and never speak.
Let this glass of strong wine bring you nostalgia.
Now you look back and hold your tears.
…
Before she could walk back to the sand dune where she had rested, Zhuo Ye heard a familiar melody...
After all, he was worried about her and came to look for her...
