Chapter 49: : Hungry and unbearable
In the afternoon, the sun was not as hot as noon, but it was still unbearable.
A teenager slowly climbed to the top of a low dune.
He started to climb from the back of the dune, obviously he was going to climb over the dune.
He has a sword in his hand, a wooden handle, and a strange blade, which is full of roughness. The young man is using this long sword as an abduction to help him move forward.
The boy's figure is very thin and not strong.
A linen underwear with long sleeves but bare feet.
His head was still covered with a layer of clothing, his nose and mouth were covered very tightly, but his eyes were greatly exposed, and he also had golden hair on his forehead.
Is pin gold.
The top of the sand dune is within a few steps, and the sunlight illuminates, causing Pin Jin to narrow his eyes.
He deliberately exposed his eyes, knowing that he must maintain a good field of vision, and at the same time mobilizing hearing, smell, and touch along the way, alerting predators who may attack at any time and any place.
The sunlight is very dazzling, and the eyes squinted by the needle still have some spots swayed by the sunlight.
Jin Jin didn't turn over directly, but stopped at the place very close to the top of the sand dune, and waited until his eyes had actually adjusted before he continued to cross over.
Found no danger, and needle gold stood on the top of the sand dunes and looked into the distance.
The desert in front of him was gentle, not as many sand dunes as he was behind.
The boy couldn't help but sigh.
This means that he must trudge under the torture of the sun.
The eyes of the teenager are also very beautiful, with a blue color, like the sky after the rain. The confusion in the eyes is fleeting, and it is the meaning of perseverance.
"Go ahead."
Jin Jin said to himself, and suddenly his blue eyes lit up suddenly.
"There is food!"
Practiced a grudge, so that his physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, he found a spider not far away, is rolling down the sand dunes along the wind.
Jin Jin hurried down quickly, without much effort, and caught the spider smoothly.
This spider is about the size of an adult's two thumbs. The body is yellow-brown, similar in color to the sand, but it is still found by the keen eye of needle gold.
The spider has eight legs, but they all curl up to make the body into a ball. Then along the wind, the spider can roll down the sand dune.
If you want to let it walk on its own legs, it will be much more laborious.
In this barren desert, life has its own unique survival skills. Saving physical energy is undoubtedly one of the major effects.
The needle gold pinched off the spider's head, and then shook his hand to shake off the sand on the spider.
After, he put the spider directly into his mouth and chewed it with his teeth. After he became very fine, the throat knot rolled and swallowed completely.
Pinch off the head of the little spider to detoxify. Of course, this small life has a weak breath, which is very different from the bronze level. Even if it is poisonous, it will not be poisoned. It is at least silver needle gold. But the teenager didn't want to put other burdens on his body at all.
The taste of spiders is not very good, there is no baking, and there is no seasoning. There is a strange smell in the mouth, throat and nasal cavity of the needle.
Spider's arthropod taste is very simple, like a thin branch.
After a bit of aftertaste, this simple taste is similar to other small insects.
This little spider is not his first food.
Along the way, he also encountered several others sporadically.
There are spiders, scorpions, and others who can't name them. Spiders go to the head, scorpions go to the tail, and all of them have the belly of the needle gold.
Every time he eats, he feels dry and vomiting.
But he would never underestimate these little lives.
He is very clear in his heart that these little lives are very important to supplement water and food.
Having walked in the desert for a long time, needle gold has been discovered: he did not encounter any edible plant, but it is easier to find some small creatures.
These little creatures have very little meat, and the most valuable thing is to hydrate the needle gold.
Jin Jin treasures these foods very much.
Although these bits and pieces of food are very small, the accumulation of them bit by bit may be the reliance on the desert when he successfully walks out.
"If you don't cherish these foods, maybe you will be able to get out of here in the future, but I ended up in the desert."
"I really hope to meet a cactus." Jing Jin sighed.
This journey, he also encountered a few sporadic plants.
But unfortunately, there is no cactus.
These plants are also small and short, and needle gold doesn't know exactly what kind it is or whether it can be eaten.
He tried.
After carefully avoiding the sharp needle-like branches and leaves, he found that the root system of the plant was deeply buried deep in the desert.
This kind of root system allows the plant to absorb a little water from the bottom of the desert, but it also makes the needle gold difficult to dig.
After trying gold, he chose to give up decisively and wisely.
Even if dug out, the roots of this plant may not be food. Needle gold does not know the variety of this plant.
Many times, he must calculate the consumption and possible gains, patiently compare the results of the two, and then calmly think about it and make a decision.
Obviously, digging a plant that you do n’t know is too risky!
Finally, Pin Jin chose to give up.
This choice is actually very difficult.
Every time a desert plant leaves, needle gold will fall into a doubt-am I doing something wrong? Perhaps this is an opportunity that the **** specifically arranged to help me get out of trouble. But I chose to give up.
Jin Jin felt like a student in the college. He was doing a test paper about his life and death. He kept answering questions, but no one gave him the correct answer for each question.
Time gradually passed, and the sun slowly set west.
In the evening, Sunshine was like a rude man who vented his anger through brutal beatings. At this moment, his cursing and beating were feeble, which caused a gentle delusion.
The temperature in the air also became suitable, but it was still very dry, and the needle gold began to consciously speed up the pace.
He needs to walk as much as possible at this time to make up for his previous losses.
While the sun is gradually setting on the horizon, the afterglow of the setting sun and the sunset at the horizon look beautiful.
But this kind of beauty, Jin Jin has no intention to appreciate it.
He just thinks it is like an ultimatum or warning of the sun-kid, let me pass you for now. Tomorrow I will come and continue to torture you!
At this time, the air temperature drops rapidly, and the rate of decrease is very fast.
Jin Jin began to feel the thinness of his clothes. A strong cold hit him, making him unable to resist a chill.
The boy couldn't help but feel a little bit down.
The temperature difference in this desert is very large, and it is beyond his previous estimate.
This is also a test for him.
"Although I can tolerate it now, but in the later period, after my physical condition declines, this temperature difference change may become a death blackmail on my neck."
This is a possible threat in the future. Nowadays, what most want to solve is hunger and thirst.
The feeling of hunger is more serious than when I was awake.
How can the small creatures found along the way fill the stomach of the needle. In fact, it is more of a solace than a food.
Fortunately, Pin Jin did not encounter attacks by powerful predators during the day. But unfortunately it is also here, which means that he did not have the opportunity to harvest a lot of food.
At this time, his neck was still wrapped around a special "birch", that is, the body of the desert viper that was killed before.
The boy stroked the snake scale with affectionately with his finger.
Came from the fingertips of cold touch, but in my heart, this ice cooling turned into a warmth.
This is the only food left in Jinjin's hands, and he kept it deliberately.
On the one hand, as long as it is present, there is hope in Jinjin's heart.
On the other hand, Jin Jin is also alert to the risks involved. If you eat a lot of food, you will also consume the body's water.
As for the viper, it was a venomous thing, but it was secondary.
Viper's body structure determines that its poison glands are in the snake's head. Once the snake's head is pinched off, it's basically no poison.
According to the physique of needle gold, even if it is poisoned, it is not afraid of the poison of this common beast.
"But it's better to bake it after firing. After all, this island is strange and dangerous, and it can't be viewed with ordinary eyes. Maybe such a snake has poison all over its body? If so, my situation at this moment is as good Take the initiative to put the sickle of death on my neck. "
When the sun in the sky completely disappeared, the night came.
"This day has passed." Pin Jin looked at the deep and vast sky, and there was another daze, panic appeared in his heart.
His current situation is dangerous and difficult.
During the daytime, the sun he hated and hated actually gave him a good vision. In the dark now, there will be more predators.
Jin Jin takes a few deep breaths ~ www.readwn.com ~ Try to calm down again.
Then he found with joy that he really succeeded!
With the first sharpening, he seems to have made a qualitative leap in stabilizing his state of mind.
He doesn't even need to pray.
He can keep calm by himself now.
Of course, he also knew the result of prayer. He didn't have much expectations for Sheng Ming's response to himself.
Late at night, the temperature was very low, and a breath of white gas began to exhale from the needle and nose of Jin Jin.
Chill biting.
The hunger intensified and the teenagers suffered.
Had already protested in his stomach, making a cooing sound.
But more thirsty than hungry.
Jin Jin felt that his throat was smoking. If there was a lake, he would like the whole person to immerse himself and take a dip.
Too little water is added.
The needle gold originally hoped for some plants in the desert, but this hope was shattered.
He didn't even see the shadow of a cactus.
There is no moon tonight, and the sky is full of stars.
Jin Jin looked up at the starry sky, feeling that these starlights were ruthless and indifferent, and seemed to be watching him slowly approaching the dead end.
He tried to identify and wanted to rely on astrology to prove his direction, but he failed.
For this aspect, he is not involved, he is completely a layman.
Because of the correct strategy during the day, he still has a lot of physical fitness left.
The boy continued to walk alone in the desert under the stars.
Unconsciously, the sand dunes began to appear next to Pin Jin again.
"What is that?" In the vague vision, Jian Jin found a beast shadow entrenched in the waist of the sand dune.
