With no grudges or hatred, and even the possibility of being a future teammate, Lu Yuan still has some moral integrity. Of course, whether he will be a teammate remains to be seen... Lu Yuan finally made an invitation: "Since you have nowhere to go, come with us to the Sky City." The conch made a soliloquy: [The evil existence that wants to stew me made a malicious invitation. But obviously, I have nowhere to go, and I can't even move. ] [If I refuse, he will definitely cook me, damn it. ] [Well... Dear Mr. Traveler... Let me point you in the direction, which may be far away, you must be mentally prepared. ] Lu Yuan was ashamed, what level of mental patient is this? He cleared his throat: "Teammate, what do you need now?" [I want a little water to clean the conch shell... Other than that, I want... to chat? How about it? ] [I have never left this conch, I want to witness a bigger world. 】
"We don't have any other people here, there are too many people chatting." Lu Yuan rode on the tricycle and slowly drove away. Two tire marks appeared in the sand dunes, and they soon disappeared under the breeze. Only a green vine quietly emerged from the mouth of the conch, looking out, looking at the vast trees. Everything that had once collapsed, but no memory was preserved, only knowing that this place seemed to be my home. The moon in the sky is still the same moon, but the world is not the same world. It's time to leave here. In the end, the towering tree disappeared in the golden sand dunes. …… …… Picking up a little friend from the desert, the team became even more unruly. Lu Yuan is actually quite polite. Because the new friend has a nice voice, soft and sticky, and very polite. You can't bully a very polite life form-this is Lu Yuan's personal integrity! But the other members of the team don't care so much, what's wrong with bullying you? The newcomer seemed like a newborn baby who didn't understand many concepts. He was asking questions here and there every minute, absorbing knowledge like a sponge. Lu Yuan finally understood what the request of "chatting" meant. My elder sister, you can't talk 24 hours a day, right? He even asked what the two lychees hanging on the old wolf's butt were.
[Excuse me, what is that thing? Is it to attract others to attack? ] "Are you male or female?" The immortal giant turtle explained vulgarly. [What...what do you mean? ] "Those who can give birth to children are usually female. Those who have that thing are all male! Grandpa Turtle has it too!" The immortal giant turtle raised its tail. Its organ actually grows in the chrysanthemum, and it will only come out when it reproduces. "I've learned a lot." Lu Yuan said in surprise. [Ahhh...you are a rogue turtle! ] The evil and arrogant wolf twisted his body a little guilty and walked up. Now it is weak and has completely become a pet. After cultivating itself for so long, it has regained its vitality. When it heard the turtle talking about this, it looked thoughtful. It missed the mother wolf a little. "Ah! Ah!" The voice was sad and cold, full of resentment and sighs of the times. "You must be showing off!" The immortal giant turtle bit the old wolf's tail. There was another round of chaos. ... After a few days of communication, Lu Yuan gave this new friend a name - "Miss Conch". She seems to be a female creature? Well, that's good. It can be regarded as bringing a bit of yin and yang harmony to the team that has too much yang to the point of mental illness. "Miss Conch" has only one soul, does not know her own name, does not know what her body should look like, knows nothing, and cannot even bask in the sun. She only hides in the small conch. When she gets excited, she starts to stutter and morally calls the other party "a fool". When she is not excited, she regrets why she quarrels. She was a chatterbox, asking "why" all day long. Even the old wolf was annoyed by her. Finally, Lu Yuan stuffed a book of "Advanced Mathematics" into her, and finally made her shut up her curious mouth. "Learn slowly! I, Old Lu, have studied for so many years, and it's your turn to suffer." Lu Yuan looked at "Miss Conch" being abused by mathematics in a very dark way, and began to feel happy in his heart. "Ahem, my good brothers are all good teachers, with their own survival skills. It's good to learn from them."
"But sometimes you have to have independent thinking." Lu Yuan pointed to his brain, "Don't get infected with mental illness." [Okay, Mr. Lu. I understand, you are the only normal person without mental illness. ] Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction, and was very satisfied with this flattery. This lady can indeed judge which direction the [monster] came from, and it can be regarded as pointing Lu Yuan in the relatively correct direction. The tricycle is riding hard in the golden desert! … … As time went by, the vastness and harshness of the desert far exceeded our expectations. The farther we were from the [Monster], the fewer bugs there were. It is safe, but the endless distance makes people mentally collapse. The occasional huge storms force Lu Yuan to use the ability of the alien space to avoid them. The alien space has a flaw, it cannot move. Once the sand dunes float over, they coincide with the alien space, which is equivalent to everyone being buried in the sand. Today is another huge sandstorm, and a group of people have no way to move, hiding near the Tree of Life. "Damn, how many days have passed?" Lu Yuan pursed his dry lips. "Today is 612 days since we left the Rize civilization, 5832 days in the Ninth Era." The old cat reported the number ruthlessly and accurately, "We have been in the desert for a full 12 months, walking and stopping, and theoretically advancing 12,000 kilometers." The largest Sahara Desert on earth is only 4,800 kilometers from east to west. Today, 12,000 kilometers is already a quarter of the circumference of the earth, but we have not yet reached the end of the desert. Lu Yuan looked at the gray sky, feeling desperate as if he was challenging the Endless Light Card. The most desperate thing in the world is that "God doesn't bleed". Even if there is a progress bar of 1%! Now this feeling of neither going up nor down is too uncomfortable. [I said it was very far away. You can't blame me...] [Okay, gentlemen, do you need comfort so much? It's really disappointing. Since you show a frustrated look, I will give you some face and tell you that you will arrive at the destination soon. ] [I estimate that it will take another day, and it will arrive tomorrow. ] [Let's work together! ] Ms. Conch gradually adapted to her role: a flatterer! As the bottom of the world, her fighting power is not even as good as that of the old wolf. In this dark forest where the weak are the prey of the strong, she can only live by flattering.
Even the old turtle reconciled with her. Lu Yuan looked at Conch expressionlessly. You started saying last year that it would arrive tomorrow, but a year later, you are still saying this? ! It turns out that the god attribute is not equivalent to intelligence. How come your god with 33 points is like a fool? Well, 33 points of god attribute is indeed useful. In just one year, Ms. Conch taught herself advanced mathematics. This learning efficiency made Lu Yuan, a tough man, cry-how many years have I studied since elementary school? Am I so stupid? A 33-point god can even learn glyphs by force. No ability is required, just forced learning! But this talent is far inferior to Lu Yuan. She hasn't gotten started yet, but it has taken up a huge amount of her time, making her less talkative-this has become Lu Yuan's last point of pride. If you don't know glyphs, aren't you a loser? "Tell me the truth, how long will it take? To be honest, my big sister Conch!" [One year... At this rate, at least one year... If it's slow, it may take two years. 】 Miss Conch said weakly. "Two more years?!" The immortal giant turtle bounced up and collided with the tent, almost crying anxiously. That damn sentimentality. "How much water do you have left?" The old cat asked Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan didn't say anything, but sighed to the sky. This desert is fucking... How many people can get through it? He was a little bit unconfident. "Don't ask... I'll fill a pot of sand to comfort you and let you hold on to your destination." The collapse artist turned around and wrote a few lines in the desert. [We are all in the desert. The sand buried us in a pee. I am in the sand, and all my teammates are in it. ] Another bucket of water was consumed, and Lu Yuan was a little confused. The coarse wind and sand blew on his face. "Grandpa Turtle doesn't drink water anymore! Wait until you reach your destination, and wake Grandpa Turtle up!" The immortal giant turtle suddenly made a decision and retracted his limbs and head into the turtle shell. A gray light flashed, and the pattern on its back kept changing, turning into a stone. The "big water consumer" suddenly fell into a dormant state. If only Lu Yuan and Lao Lang drank water, they could last twice as long. "Old brother... OK, let me do the rest of the journey..."
Lu Yuan was actually very grateful to this old brother. Because there were a lot of bugs in the desert, even if the tricycle had a stealth glyph, it was not safe, so most of the journey was ridden by the turtle, and Lu Yuan rested in the car. It had thick skin and flesh, so even if it was suddenly attacked and bitten, it would not be a big problem. Now that it was finally away from those bugs, the immortal giant turtle was able to fall into hibernation with confidence. This old brother can be said to be another form of great wisdom. Just like that, because of the significant reduction in water consumption, Lu Yuan and others changed their strategy, from hiding during the day and going out at night to riding 18 hours a day, resting for 6 hours, and speeding up again. ... Time passed again, and 13 months passed again... The team that had been rushing on the road, Lu Yuan always had an illusion, whether the air humidity had increased a little? Was the temperature a little lower?
