Chapter 104 Desert Understanding
This is one of the five major deserts of the Tutankhamun Empire, and it is also a place where mutant energy is raging quite severely. There are some extremely tenacious oasis in the desert that can provide supplies, but there are also more. Even Muzi feels troublesome.
The surrounding sand becomes extremely hot under the sunlight. The wind that occasionally blows in the air also has strong heat and the smell of sand, but more often it is still calm and the whole world is like dead silence. There is no wind or sound. There is only the boundless desert and the vicious sunshine above your head.
A young sand lizard was lying on the golden sand all over the ground, enjoying the sunshine leisurely. The mutated creatures have stronger adaptability than humans. Perhaps they cannot get rid of the demand for water sources, but their living habits have completely adapted to the desert environment. The sand lizard's expression is quite relaxed and relaxed. There are no other mutated creatures nearby, which are quite safe. But suddenly, it suddenly felt something, turned over and turned from the ground, with limbs on the ground, and his small eyes were circling, and he looked at the movements around him vigilantly.
Soon it saw a human shadow coming from a distance. Unlike ordinary desert travelers and travelers, he did not bring a large brim hat and mask that could cover the wind and sand, nor did he have extra equipment for large and small bags, and even his clothes were very thin. This is Tutankhamun's desert, and the temperature difference between day and night is quite large. Although the ground is hot during the day, at night, it can freeze your skin off a layer. But this person is not
Care, a thin dress and a small backpack are all his equipment, but he doesn't look like a robbed refugee. His walking posture is extremely steady and his speed is very fast. When the sand lizard saw him, he was still several miles away, but in just a few dozen seconds, he had reached a position only hundreds of meters away from him. He frightened the sand lizard, slammed the sand lizard and slammed the sand under his feet, and walked in and disappeared without a trace.
The figure was Wang Chong. This was the tenth day after leaving the village of Kaccilta and had entered the center of the Morades Pink Desert.
This is what Muzi recommends.
I was walking alone with a small backpack on my back, not even with Tianxun, and I was unrestrained, as if I had returned to the silence of my childhood. Although the surrounding environment was very empty, my heart was very fulfilled.
Is it dead silent in the desert? Wang Chong once thought so, even for half a month before struggling with Gong Yi and others, he did not change this view.
But when his heart calmed down and walked through this loneliness for a few days before he slowly realized that in fact, it is still full of vitality in this empty world. Whether it is ordinary creatures, mutated creatures, or even desert plants, they have tenacious vitality. They may not be easily seen on the surface of the desert, but they are hidden underground in the desert, hidden behind the hills in the distance, hidden in some places that are easy for you to ignore the past at a glance, and are constantly blooming with the glory of life.
When you walk every day, experience it every day. The more you see it, the more you experience it. As Muzi said, this is a completely different feeling. Muzi has already traveled all over the Tutankhamun Empire, so he has gained the power he is now.
It was only ten days. Wang Chong was already unshaven and unkempt, but his eyes were even sharper. Everything around him had a different meaning to him, just like a newborn baby, greedily breathing the air of the world, curiously looking at this colorful world, learning and remembering everything here.
There is a shortage of water in the desert, but it is not without water. Especially after the general environment changes, the desert has not changed. It is just that the vitality here has mutated and becomes stronger. This means that the water will be gathered by plants, but ordinary people cannot see it because they are controlled by some huge plant rhizomes underground.
Therefore, it is very difficult for ordinary people to find water, but it is different for Wang Chong. He is a big five elements body and can feel the existence of various elements.
Through unremitting practice, as long as you feel the flow of water power in the air carefully, you will find the water source. No matter how subtle it is, it will spread into the air, and intuition will lead you to find the resources entrenched under the sand.
However, although this method is feasible, it also requires a lot of practice. At the beginning, Wang Chong made a lot of mistakes in his judgment. Although he could feel the power of the water element in the air, he would often dig the wrong place. Such water element power was diffusing and drifting in the desert. You had to clearly distinguish its source and direction, and even its distance. This requirement for the perception of the five elements has reached an indescribable level of harshness.
However, with delicate insights and continuous practice, Wang Chong gradually felt that he was integrated with the desert, and was more accustomed to it, so the feeling of distinguishing water elements in complex airflow became clearer and clearer, a bit like the state of the mind, but not, higher level, insight into the environment, and dissolved in the environment, this is the transformation from the active release of the mind to passive perception, which is quite natural.
Finding water sources is only one of the necessary conditions for survival in the desert. If you want to survive here and complete this long journey, you need more.
Food, endurance, and in the face of danger, the polarization of mutated organisms in the desert is quite large, and the weak are indeed very weak. Small variants such as sand scorpions and sand lizards are purely something to come out to add food to new humans. They are at the bottom of the entire desert ecological system. Not to mention facing powerful mutated organisms, even many mutated plants can feed on them.
Wang Chong was also observing. He found a very interesting phenomenon. Perhaps people in the desert had not thought about it like this, but the phenomenon did exist. These small variants such as sand lizards and sand scorpions at the lowest end of the desert biological chain are their natural enemies, but only they are spread all over the desert and reproduce the most prosperously.
While nature evolved, although it created the most natural enemies for them, it also gave them quite perverted other abilities. First of all, the fertility of these variants far exceeded that of the previous normal state.
