The next morning, when Jiang Ce and others walked out of the room and came to the first floor, they saw Liu Huzi and his family standing respectfully, preparing all the food.
The wicked will be punished by the wicked. To deal with such a wicked person, it is more vicious than him.
Jiang Ce's words and actions shocked Liu Huzi last night. He dared not do anything evil today.
Jiang Ce and Pisces sat down calmly, didn't ask anything, picked up the chopsticks and ate.
Jiang Yiyun said with great concern: "Do you just eat it like this? Don't use silver needle to try to see if it is poisoned? What if you die of eating it?"
Jiang Ce smiled slightly, "Don't worry, there will be no problem."
Jiang Yiyun pouted, but she still didn't dare to eat.
So Jiang Ce tried all the portion Jiang Yiyun had. It was confirmed that there was no problem, so Jiang Yiyun dared to move her chopsticks.
After eating them all, Jiang Ce and his group got into the car and took Liu Huzi to find the Tree of Life.
Pisces took out the compass and distinguished the direction based on the compass, but Liu Huzi didn't look at it at all, and even said with a little ridiculousness: "In this Gobi Desert, the compass is not easy to work, especially in the area close to the Tree of Life. With a strong Earth magnetic field, even the strongest compass will fail."
As he said that, Liu Huzi poked his head out of the window, squinted his eyes and looked at the sky, then pointed to his right hand and said, "Let's head there!"
Pisces drove forward as he said.
Under Liu Huzi's command, they drove for about an hour, and then Liu Huzi suddenly shouted: "Stop!"
The car stopped.
Liu Huzi pushed open the car door and jumped down, looked up at the sky, took out a pair of homemade telescopes and looked into the distance.
Immediately afterwards, he squatted on the ground and used his hands to pick the sand.
"You can't drive in front anymore. You have to walk."
"Walking?" Jiang Yiyun was stunned. It was so hard for her to walk like a weak girl in this desert that she was so desperate.
"There is a lot of quicksand in front of us, the car is large in size and high in weight, so it is easy to get stuck in quicksand. If you don't want to die, just walk over with your legs. Fortunately, the Tree of Life is not far away, so you should arrive after walking for another three or five hours."
Jiang Yiyun felt uncomfortable just thinking about it after walking with her legs for three or five hours.
Jiang Ce opened the car door, took off his backpack, and said to Jiang Yiyun: "If you don't want to leave, just stay in the car. I will leave you food and water. After you have obtained the trunk of the Tree of Life, we will come back to meet you."
Waiting alone in this desert?
don't want!
Jiang Yiyun directly denied Jiang Ce’s suggestion. We must move forward with Jiang Ce.
Finally, Jiang Ce and Pisces were holding backpacks, and Liu Huzi was responsible for leading the way. Jiang Yiyun followed behind.
The three of them just kept walking.
After walking for another hour, they saw broken walls and ruins, all of which were buildings passed down from ancient times.
In ancient times, there were bustling cities and green fields.
Unfortunately, they are all overwhelmed by sand now.
"Ah!!!" Suddenly, Jiang Yiyun shouted in fear. When everyone looked back, they saw Jiang Yiyun holding Jiang Ce's sleeve in horror, pointing to a distance and shouting: "Bone, bone!"
Jiang Ce walked over and saw a broken wall under a broken wall. There was a bone rack that looked like a sheep.
The sheep had no meat on their body, and there was only an empty bone frame left.
Liu Huzi walked over and took a look. He said, "This is a desert bighorn sheep. I often see it in the desert, but I don't know why I died here."
Maybe it was because there was no water, maybe it was because of hunger, or it was attacked by other carnivores.
In this peaceful and warm desert, there are crises everywhere.
If you are not careful, you will die here.
"Um?"
Just as everyone was about to leave and continue moving forward, Liu Huzi felt something was wrong.
He walked forward two steps. He came to the bone stand, squatted down, reached out and touched it, and found that the bone looked intact, but actually had many pitfalls.
They are all small pits that are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. Only when you touch them with your hands can you feel that the bones are like saws, all of which are pits.
"What's wrong."
Liu Huzi's face changed and changed. He looked around.
When the wind blew, several more bone frames appeared; here, there were many bones, which was an unusual thing.
At the same time, everyone felt that some changes had occurred on the ground.
Guru, Guru, and the underground sounded like water was boiling, making a strange sound.
Hearing such a voice, Liu Huzi was so scared that he was gone and shouted: "Run!"
He didn't explain at all, turned around and ran away.
Jiang Ce and Pisces are both people who have been through the battlefield for a long time. Seeing Liu Huzi's expression and actions, when they see so many bones at the scene, they already know that the situation is not good.
They didn't ask why, and they just started running.
Jiang Ce even picked up Jiang Yiyun directly. Without saying a word, he followed Liu Huzi in an instant. Although Jiang Ce even hugged someone, his speed was no slower than Liu Huzi.
If it weren't for the purpose of accommodating Liu Huzi, Jiang Ce would have been faster.
Just less than ten seconds after they ran out, suddenly, they heard a loud bang. The ground under the broken wall they were originally staying at was like a fountain gushing out, spewing out four or five meters high.
Black and dense.
"That's..." Jiang Yiyun hugged Jiang Ce's neck tightly and looked at the dark thing. At first, she naively thought it was oil. After she opened her eyes and saw it clearly, her tongue was so scared that she was knotted.
"Ants, so many ants!"
That large area of black, all of them were ants.
Unlike ordinary ants, those ants are like well-trained soldiers. A large area gushed out from the ground, then stared at Jiang Ce and others, and quickly swept towards them.
These ants are fast and disciplined, and just one look makes people feel uncomfortable.
Jiang Yiyun was so scared that she yelled. Now she understood why Liu Huzi ran away from her legs, and even more so why there were so many bones on the broken wall.
All of them were eaten alive by these ants!
Now, the target of these ants is Jiang Ce and the other four. Two words appear in Jiang Yiyun's mind: prey.
At this moment, Jiang Ce and the other four were prey in the eyes of these ants!
"What kind of ants are those? Why are they chasing us all the time?" Jiang Yiyun asked.
Liu Huzi, who was running beside him, replied pale and said, "That's a marching ant. Once you are targeted, you will basically give it a lecture!"
Fear, despair, spread.
