Extreme alert

Chapter 1490 Supplies
The stone camel looked desperate and sober.

"We have no drinking water, even if we don't lose our way, usually people will be exhausted after walking for a day."

The stone camel said soberly, "The desert is different from other places. It is possible for you to walk fifty miles a day on ordinary land, but in the desert, because the sand dunes block the road, there are various reasons such as sand, weather, wind and rain, and sun exposure. , it is very difficult for you to walk ten miles on foot, and this is still under the condition of supplies.”

Looking at the people around him, the stone camel said in despair, "I know there are a few experts among you, but ordinary people lack supplies, basically after a day, they will no longer have the strength to move..."

When he spoke, he was looking at Zhao Ji and the others.

Although Zhao Ji and others suffered a lot of humiliation after they came out of Bianjing, but seeing that Zhao Ji and Li Bin still looked delicate and tender, Shi Tuo knew that they were definitely not people who endured hardship.

"Even if it's you..."

The stone camel looked at Shen Yue, "Abandoning all the burdens, the possibility of reaching Peacock Island is not great."

Everyone was chilled, thinking to themselves, is everyone going to die here?

Shen Yue was still very calm, "You also said that it is impossible to move forward without supplies. But what if we can find supplies?"

The stone camel was stunned, "Where are the supplies?"

Shen Yue looked at Wang Shuangquan, "Didn't you say that your caravan camped at a secret water source and was blown here by the wind?"

Everyone cheered up, they did hear what Wang Shuangquan said, but only Shen Yue kept this in mind.

The stone camel looked astonished.

"When was that?" Shen Yue asked.

Wang Shuangquan nodded timidly, "It was just midnight. But I was blown into the air by the wind, and I was dizzy. I don't know how far I was blown. I'm afraid I can't find the water source."

The stone camel frowned and said, "I don't know what this guy is talking about. As far as I know, there is no water source near here, and there is no hidden water source."

Everyone was slightly surprised.

Shen Yue pondered, "Aren't you together?"

Shi Tuo shook his head and said, "He and I are not in the same caravan, but after the storm..." Seemingly hesitating, Shi Tuo paused and said, "After we met, we saw your direction without saying a few words. There is something strange, so I came to check."

"What's the difference?" Wan Yanlie asked.

The stone camel hesitated, "At that time, the storm had passed, but there was a strange vortex in the sky where you were, and it was shining down, connecting it to the desert."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, they didn't know why they came from Shangjing to the desert, but when they heard the stone camel say this, some couldn't help but think—did we emerge from that vortex to the desert?
Shen Yue looked up at the sky, and pondered: "So...you don't know each other at all." He also hesitated.

The stone camel shook his head.

But Wang Shuangquan said, "You don't know me, but I know you. You are the most famous guide on this route. I have met you." Scratching his head, Wang Shuangquan said with a guilty conscience: "I have always been an inconspicuous person. guide."

Li Bin said with a smile, "Haven't you managed to make a fool of yourself all these years?"

Wang Shuangquan nodded in shame.

Shen Yue frowned, "So, Shi Tuo, you don't know the secret water source that Wang Shuangquan mentioned?"

The stone camel shook his head affirmatively, "There is no secret water source within three days' journey."

Wang Shuangquan wanted to defend himself, but he didn't seem to dare to - superstitious authority seems to be so.

At this time, the sun had risen early and shone on everyone, driving away the chill, but it made everyone feel even more uneasy, because everyone knew that when the sun rose, it might be the beginning of suffering for them.

Shen Yue thought thoughtfully: "Wang Shuangquan said that he was swept up by a tornado, so is it possible that the wind sent him a longer distance?"

Wang Shuangquan nodded repeatedly, "It should be like this."

The stone camel was silent for a moment, and finally said, "It is possible, we may have encountered a different storm."

Shen Yue said slowly, "Wang Shuangquan is in a daze, but you have rich experience in the Stone Camel Desert, so you naturally know how far you have been swept away?"

The stone camel nodded again, "When I was swept away, I stayed awake. According to my calculation, I should have been swept away five miles away."

Shen Yue let out a sigh of relief, "Then do you know from which direction you were swept away?"

The stone camel lowered its head for a moment, then pointed to the northwest direction, "There. I remember clearly that the wind was blowing from northwest to southeast."

When everyone heard the words, they thought to themselves that this man was worthy of being a camel in the desert, and it was safe to have a camel.

Shen Yue nodded slightly, "Are you following the caravan?" This seemed to be nonsense, but Shen Yue said immediately, "Your caravan naturally brought supplies?"

Wanyan Xiyin suddenly realized, "As long as we follow the direction and find the supplies from the caravan, we can naturally survive?"

Both Zhao Ji and Li Bin showed excited expressions.

The stone camel immediately poured cold water on it, "I'm afraid this master has never experienced a desert storm."

Wanyan Xiyin realized that there might be something wrong with what he said, and said humbly: "It is true. I don't know what I just said, what's the problem?"

The stone camel said slowly: "The storm is impermanent, and the desert is vast. I was blown here, and I couldn't even see my companions. I can see the power of the storm. Naturally, those goods were also blown to pieces, and they would definitely be covered by sand. .This is a desert. The goods are buried under the sand. You may not find them if you step on them. You have to dig to find out.”

Wanyan Xiyin's eyelids twitched slightly.

The stone camel said word by word, "You are looking for those supplies under the vast desert, in fact, it is no different from gambling your life." After a moment of silence, the stone camel said soberly: "At this time, do you choose to dig the sand or move forward?"

Wanyan Xiyin looked at the undulating desert in the distance, and sighed, "It's not a mistake."

The excitement on the faces of Zhao Ji and Li Bin froze.

Shen Yue said, "As long as you choose the right direction, I can come to find supplies, and... I have a great confidence in finding them!"

Everyone was stunned.

Wanyan Lie also didn't understand how Shen Yue could do this, he was also a realistic person and knew that what Shi Tuo said was correct.

The stone camel was stunned for a while, looking very suspicious, but seeing Shen Yue's firm expression, he finally said: "Although I don't think that we people can walk out of the desert alive, but since this master said so, you saved us again." My life, my life, if I give it back to you, what's the problem?"

He got up and said, "Let's go."

The stone camel walked like a camel, seemingly slow, but moving at an even speed, which was the most energy-saving method.

Shen Yue followed behind him, took out his mobile phone, and turned to the wave measuring panel.

Wanyan Lie and Yang Yao were behind Shen Yue again, Wanyan Lie suddenly said, "Master Yang, among the people here, you can be considered a figure."

Yang Yaowei was surprised, because he knew that Wanyan Lie thought highly of himself, of course this kind of person would not praise others easily, knowing that there must be some tests in this compliment, Yang Yao replied: "I dare not take it."

Wanyan Lie said as expected, "Do you see what Shen Yue is doing? If you were you, how would you find the supplies left by the desert caravan?"
