There is a beast: (Hundred Explanations)
Chapter 14 Crossing the Desert
"Ha~ It's so hot, so thirsty, I want to drink celestial dew, rainwater will do too..." The Four-Faced Beast stuck out its tongue. With its extremely poor heat tolerance, it was practically committing suicide in the desert.
"Oh no, I have nothing to hold water, and besides, this is the desert, where am I supposed to get water?" Bai Jie thought to herself. No wonder he always felt like he had forgotten something; it turned out he hadn't made a special water cup to fetch water.
"Should I use saliva to save her?" This thought suddenly popped into Bai Jie's mind. She then shook her head. That was too strange, and besides, her own water content was also quite important.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck—the power of faith manifested!
If the power of faith can materialize dolls, then it must also be able to materialize water.
Bai Jie glanced at the Faith Power panel.
[Power of Faith: 30]
Seeing this small amount of faith power, Bai Jie couldn't help but feel a bit of a toothache, hoping that it could save the Four-Faced Beast.
After thinking it over, Bai Jie lay down on Di Jiang's head and fell asleep instantly, then entered the dream space.
Hurry, hurry, hurry! Bai Jie made a doll-sized water bottle based on her memory and filled it with water.
(Reveal!)
Bai Jie's faith power decreased by 25, but she saw that there was still some left. Fortunately, it was enough.
"The power of faith is a piece of trash, you can earn more when you run out!" Bai Jie said through gritted teeth.
The kettle alone cost 23 points of Faith Power, and filling it with water costs 2 points, which is quite cheap.
The remaining faith power can fill the water jug two and a half times; if we're careful with it, it should be enough.
With a whoosh, Bai Jie returned to reality.
"Four-Unlikes, drink this." Bai Jie tossed the large water jug that the Four-Unlikes had just materialized.
"This? It's water!" The Four-Faced Beast became excited upon seeing the water in the kettle!
Si Bu Xiang looked at Bai Jie with tears in his eyes, took a big gulp of water, and thought to himself, "It's so good to have brothers!"
"Bai Jie~ I'm hungry," Tianlu said weakly, his head covered in sweat.
Bai Jie suddenly grew larger, "Everyone, get on my back! The Yellow Sea is so big, we definitely won't be able to get out anytime soon, but we have to hurry, otherwise it'll be dangerous for everyone, especially you, the Four-Faced Beast."
"Huh? Me?" Si Bu Xiang pointed to himself.
"Don't you have any idea how little heat you can withstand? You'll probably be dried out before you even get out of the desert," Bai Jie said, rolling her eyes.
The four "don'ts" scratched their heads, and it seemed to make some sense.
He lay on Bai Jie's back, while Tianlu and Bixie transformed into smaller, energy-saving versions and also landed on Bai Jie's back. Dijiang also transformed into a tiny rambutan.
Seeing that they were all on their backs, Bai Jie took out some gold bars and gave them to Tianlu and Bixie, saying, "Eat slowly, I have more if you're not full."
Tianlu held the gold bar in its two paws and started gnawing on it. Bixie was also hungry. The two beasts ate happily, but it would have been even better if they could have some water.
Bai Jie: That's a good idea, but you can just keep it to yourself.
The daytime is the hottest time of the year. Even though the Four-Unlikes doesn't move, its head is covered in sweat. The Evil-Repelling Beast and the Heavenly Deer also suffer from the heat.
Needless to say, Bai Jie, who was on her way, was in a completely different situation. To be honest, of Bai Jie's two lives, only the military training in her previous life could compare to the current situation. She wanted a rainy day, but it was always sunny. It was as if some non-flying mythical beast from another world was next to her.
The only one with a spirit is that little rambutan, Dijiang. There isn't a single cloud in the sky, and she can maximize photosynthesis.
Hmm... I'll have Dijiang carry Tianlu and the other one when the time comes. The Four-Faced Beast is too big, so I'll carry them. They can rest well today. Bai Jie thought to herself.
Bai Jie wiped her sweat and continued on her way.
The Four-Faced Beast, perched on its back, watched Bai Jie sweating as she hurried along, and couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache: "Little Golden Thread did all this for me..."
No, no, we have to help Little Gold Thread.
The four mythical creatures blew air at Bai Jie, trying to cool her down.
Feeling the wind behind her, she turned to look at the Four-Faced Beast, chuckled softly, and said, "Alright, Four-Faced Beast~ You should rest well. I'm not that fragile. You don't want to faint from thirst and we have no water to save you, do you?"
Si Bu Xiang chuckled awkwardly. "Alright, let's get some rest. We'll find a chance to repay Little Golden Thread properly later!"
Bai Jie kept walking until the sky gradually darkened, and her feet felt a little numb.
"Phew~ Everyone, come down and rest for a while," Bai Jie said to the beasts on her back.
Upon hearing Bai Jie's voice, the creatures on her back all jumped off. They could see how tired Bai Jie was and couldn't bear to let her walk like this at night.
Of course, even if Bai Jie were to walk at night, he wouldn't want to. Bai Jie transformed back into his smaller form and took a breath.
Please~ traveling is really tiring!
The desert was cold at night, and there was nowhere for Bai Jie to start a fire, but thanks to the divine beast's eyesight, she could see the road very clearly.
Bai Jie took out gold bars and distributed them to Tianlu and Bixie, as they wouldn't have to worry about food while following him.
Si Bu Xiang took a sip of water, shook the kettle, and found that there was still about a quarter left.
"Four-Faced Beast, your water is almost gone. Remember to conserve it; we're still a long way from leaving the desert." Bai Jie glanced at the Four-Faced Beast.
The Four-Faced Beast fell silent. "Understood."
After hearing this, Bai Jie didn't care what Si Bu Xiang was thinking, since he could still post water twice more.
midnight.
The beasts huddled together to sleep; the desert was too cold at night, and a beast alone might get sick.
Bai Jie lay between them and slowly fell asleep.
. . .
The next day, before dawn.
Bai Jie yawned and got up, waking up all the beasts around her, who were all still sleepy-eyed.
"Ha~~~ Baijie, why did you wake us up so early? It's not even dawn yet..." Tianlu yawned, indicating that waking them up so early was really disturbing their peaceful dreams.
Bai Jie said speechlessly, "Do you think I want to? If we don't set off now, and wait until the sun is directly overhead, won't we die of heat?"
Bai Jie suddenly grew larger and continued, "Sibuxiang, you come and get on my back. Then Jiang Jiang, you grow bigger too. Tianlu and Bixie, you two go get on Jiang Jiang's back."
"Wait!" Bixie said to Bai Jie.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Bai Jie asked, puzzled. There shouldn't be any problems with his arrangements.
“I’ll carry the Four-Unlikes today, you go carry it for Jiangjiang, and then Tianlu will take over tomorrow,” Bixie said earnestly.
“Yes, yes, we are three brothers! We take turns,” Tianlu chimed in.
Bai Jie looked at them, a smile playing on her lips, feeling a warm glow in her heart.
"Okay~ But you have to let me know if you can't take it anymore." Bai Jie shrank, Bi Xie grew bigger, and then, under the moved gaze of Si Bu Xiang, she carried him on her back.
The shrunken Bai Jie lay on Di Jiang's back, and Di Jiang followed Bi Xie and flew in one direction.
"Ha~ Alright, I'll go back and catch up on my sleep too." Bai Jie closed her eyes and took a nap on Di Jiang's head.
I do not know how long it has been.
"Bai Jie, Bai Jie, something's wrong! The Four-Faced Beast has fainted!" Bi Xie shouted, pushing Bai Jie.
Bai Jie opened her eyes, looked up at the sky, and saw that the sun was already overhead; it must be noon.
"Huh? Si Bu Xiang fainted? How could that be? Didn't he still have a water bottle?" Bai Jie said in confusion.
He then approached Sibuxiang and shook the water bottle on his shoulder; well, it was completely empty.
"Didn't you ask him if he still had any water?" Bai Jie said to Bixie.
"I asked, but he told me there was still some left, he just wanted to drink it slowly, but then he suddenly fainted," said Bixie, spreading his hands helplessly.
"This idiot!" Bai Jie was speechless. What idiot? He's still causing trouble now.
He's not out of water! If he was, he should have just told me.
Bai Jie then materialized a half-full bottle of water, poured it into the mouth of the Four-Faced Beast, and then filled the water bottle completely.
The four creatures gradually regained consciousness after getting into the water.
When he woke up, he saw all the beasts staring at him, and he knew he had done something wrong.
He lowered his head, wanting to admit his mistake.
Bai Jie stepped forward and patted Si Bu Xiang's head. "If you don't have water, just say so. I can still fill it up once or twice." She handed the full water bottle to Si Bu Xiang.
"But you have to drink slowly now. I can only force you to drink one more time, but if you really can't take it, you must drink it. If you get dizzy again, I won't save you." Bai Jie snorted.
Bixie put the four-legged creature back on his back.
"Thank you." The Four-Faced Beast's eyes flickered, as if tears were about to well up.
"Hold back your tears, or you'll lose moisture!" Bai Jie said, looking at Si Bu Xiang who was about to cry.
"Okay! I understand!" Si Bu Xiang wiped away his tears and smiled.
