Tiger Roars in China
Chapter 516: Trees in the Desert
When I woke up the next morning, the sand dunes had moved again, almost completely revealing the tree stump.
Feng Siniang said happily, "It seems that today is a good day for traveling."
It was better for Feng Siniang and Lao Shitou to explore the way first, and after they had figured out the situation, the main group would set out.
This time, Feng Siniang and Lao Shitou returned quickly and they had found the location of the next tree stump.
The two did not rest and continued to follow the team.
Anyway, with the horseshoe prints they left behind, the team couldn't have gone wrong.
The climate in the desert is changeable. It is very cold at night, but it is scorching hot during the day.
Hot weather, coupled with strong winds and sandstorms, can easily cause dehydration.
Therefore, water has become the most important resource in the desert.
In order to save energy, everyone rode on horseback, except Li Meng, who insisted on walking.
The more difficult the environment, the more it can temper his will.
Li Meng walked barefoot in the desert. With his level of cultivation, he was no longer affected by cold or heat.
The more down-to-earth Li Meng is, the more clearly he can feel the heaviness of the earth.
You will have a better understanding of the Way of Heaven.
As the team was marching, Luo Hu suddenly shouted, "Look, there are trees ahead!"
Suddenly, the entire team stopped and looked in the direction of Luo Hu's finger.
Because the weather is hot during the day, the ground's air rises, the heat rises, and everything looks blurry.
Sure enough, at the end of the desert, there is a big tree. I can’t see what the tree looks like, I can only see that it has many branches.
In the steaming earth air, the branches seemed to be twisting constantly.
Where there are trees, there is a high chance that you are close to an oasis.
Therefore, Luo Hu and the one-eyed old servant both wanted to go over there and take a look.
Feng Siniang and Lao Shitou had both fallen asleep in the carriage.
So they asked Shuiyue and Yuzhen Qiqige for instructions.
Shuiyue and Yuzhen were also undecided and could only ask Li Meng.
Li Meng nodded and said, "Let them go on horseback and take a look. Let's rest here for a while and wait for them to find out what's going on."
So Luo Hu and the one-eyed old servant rode on their unicorns respectively, carrying bows and arrows and scimitars, and galloped towards the tree.
Li Meng came to Wuyan Xueliqing, took a water bag from the horse's back, and drank a sip of water.
Shuiyue brought a few more fruits and gave them to Li Meng to eat.
After eating the fruit, Li Meng casually glanced in the direction of the big tree.
But he saw Luo Hu actually bending his bow and shooting arrows at the big tree.
No, there is a situation!
Li Meng directly handed the water bag to Shuiyue and said, "You stay here, I'll go over and take a look."
Li Meng didn't ride a horse either, but directly used the land flying technique. Each step was several feet long. It looked like he was walking, but in fact it was almost the same as flying.
Suddenly, Shuiyue opened her eyes wide and yelled to Li Meng, "Be careful!"
Behind Li Meng, a bunch of vertical objects like wooden stakes suddenly appeared from the sand.
Because Li Meng walked so fast, the wooden stakes that protruded out were always one step slower than Li Meng.
At this time, Feng Siniang and Lao Shitou had also woken up.
Hearing Shuiyue and Yuzhenqiqige's screams, he rushed out of the carriage.
At this time, Li Meng had already started a fierce battle with those tree stumps.
With one swing of his sword, he was able to cut off a lot of tree stumps, but more tree stumps emerged from the sand and surrounded Li Meng.
At this time, Luo Hu and the one-eyed old servant could no longer be seen, and the shadow of the tree also became blurry and slowly disappeared.
Old Shitou made a shelter with his hands, looked around, then suddenly lay down on the sand, put his ear to the sand, and listened carefully for a while.
Suddenly, he got up in a panic and shouted, "Go! Go! We are entering the territory of the Sand Snakes!"
Shuiyue and Yuzhen Qiqige looked at each other and said firmly, "We can't leave. Master Li Meng hasn't come back yet."
Feng Si Niang also saw the crisis coming, and persuaded Shui Yue and Yu Zhenqiqige, "You know how capable Li Meng is. If we stay here, we will only drag Li Meng down."
Shuiyue nodded, admitting that Feng Siniang was right.
However, Yu Zhenqiqige was still a little hesitant.
But if we delay for just a moment, it's already too late.
A row of vertical sticks stood abruptly in the sand.
It was not a stick at all, but a poisonous sand snake.
Sand snakes always live in groups, catching food in the desert.
Once they appear, there are hundreds or thousands of them, and few prey can escape their hunting.
Suddenly, the unicorns broke up and ran in all directions.
The most unlucky ones were the unicorns pulling the carts, as they were unable to break free.
Soon they were bitten by the sand snakes and died one after another.
The unicorns that were running in all directions were not much better off.
It seemed as if endless sand snakes were popping up in the sandy land, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.
Wherever the unicorn ran, sand snakes appeared.
The poison of the sand snake is extremely strong. If bitten by a unicorn, it will convulse and die.
Shuiyue discovered something was wrong and took action in time, using water-tight armor to protect Yu Zhenqiqige and Feng Siniang.
The watertight armor was layered one after another, and no matter how hard the Sand Snakes tried, they could not break through it.
The rest of the people were in a miserable state. Those who were bitten by sand snakes died on the spot.
The skin was ulcerated after being splashed by the venom, which was a horrible sight.
The poison of these venoms was too strong, and Shuiyue was too late to save them, and could only watch them die.
In a short while, their team was almost wiped out.
In the distance, Li Meng was still fighting.
The sword in his hand moved slower and slower, but every time he swung the sword, a sand snake would be killed.
The number of sand snakes is really amazing!
If Li Meng kills one, ten more will appear.
Gradually, Li Meng was completely surrounded by sand snakes.
Seeing the situation on Li Meng's side, Yu Zhenqiqige and Feng Siniang all shouted.
"Shuiyue, go save Li Meng!"
Shuiyue was full of confidence in Li Meng. She said calmly, "Don't worry, Li Meng will be fine. But how are we going to leave here..."
With a "bang", Lao Shitou broke through the carriage shed and jumped onto the roof of the carriage.
It turns out that he hid in the carriage to avoid the sand snakes.
But the sand snake actually slipped through the gap and got into the carriage.
There was no other way, so Lao Shitou could only break the roof of the car and escape.
He took out a small piece of obsidian and set the carriage on fire.
Suddenly, there were continuous "crackling" sounds, and many sand snakes were burned to death.
Old Stone kicked the burning carriage apart, revealing a burnt area. He shouted to Shuiyue and the others, "Come here quickly! Sand snakes are afraid of fire!"
