After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 42 Fishing in the Sand Sea
This is called a drop in the bucket.Besides, all the water has been given out, what will everyone drink later?

It will take two full days to walk back to the nearest station from here.

He Lingchuan folded his arms and said, "I'll bet you ten taels of silver, Sun Guoshi already has a countermeasure, so it's not our turn to worry about it." It's good to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade.

Twelve taels, Situ Han's face turned bitter: "I can't afford to gamble."

Sun Fuping glanced at them, wiped the ring, and a bulging leather ball the size of a grapefruit appeared in his hand.

This old guy really has the goods.He Lingchuan saw him stuff the ball into the mouth of the monster at the top of the staff——

Then the big ball disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Fuping turned his staff, pointed the animal head at the pool, and murmured a few words.

The monster opened its mouth and spit out a thick and long jet of water, which fell straight into the pool.

"This is the jet sac of a marble fish." Sun Fuping's explanation was very casual.

He Lingchuan seems to have heard of this strange fish. It hides in the lakes and seas in the middle of Yuan Country. It can even spray out water jets to knock large prey on land such as cows, horses, and baby elephants into the water for food. The jetting ability is impressive.In the dry season, it can live out of water for months.

However, its spray ability cannot be used right now.This kind of water bladder can shrink to store water, and even the weight has been reduced.

What a treasure to walk in the desert.

After pouring water like this for more than a quarter of an hour, Nian Songyu suddenly said: "Something is wrong, the water surface has not expanded for a long time."

According to the water caliber of the monster, the bottom of the pool should have been full long ago, and even less than half of the pool would have been filled with water.But under the noses of everyone, only two-thirds of the bottom of the pool was covered with water, and the remaining one-third was still dry.

Where did all the water go?
Sun Fuping reached out and pressed the bottom of the pool: "Sure enough, there are tricks, the water has been sucked in."

"Then what shall we do?"

Sun Fu's face darkened slightly: "Look again."

After another quarter of an hour, the water in the monster's stomach was sprayed out, and it even coughed twice.But the stagnant water at the bottom of the pool has not changed much compared to before.

You know, it's troublesome right now.

No matter how fast the plan changes, no matter how careful Sun Fuping's design is, there will always be times when he can't keep up with the situation.

Nian Songyu thought for a while, then turned to Zeng Feixiong: "Go and collect everyone's water bags."

Zeng Feixiong was startled: "Take away the drinking water? We have to persist in the desert for a few more days, and what if it's still not enough?"

Nian Songyu looked at Sun Fuping and saw that he was silent, so he insisted on his own opinion: "Don't let your efforts fall by the wayside, go collect the water quickly."

When marching in the desert, water is used to save lives. Zeng Feixiong couldn't imagine how much his subordinates resisted this order: "But, but..."

Nian Songyu's face darkened: "Do you want to disobey orders?"

Zeng Feixiong was flustered and couldn't help looking at He Chunhua.

Nian Songyu's eyes became even more gloomy.These little officials really don't have eyesight.

He Chunhua didn't know what to do, should he defy his orders and go back home, or should he pour everyone's drinking water into the pool and resign himself to fate?

Neither choice seems rational.

He had a difficult decision here, but he heard the eldest son Shi Shiran say: "Why are you so stiff? After taking away the clear water from the soldiers, how do you get out of the desert when you turn around?"

Nian Songyu said coldly: "It's a hundred miles and a half to ninety. What if it's only a little short?"

"Can you guarantee that it's just short of that?"

Nian Songyu smiled: "Yes."

So what if you can't?At that time, the water has been poured out, and the uncooked rice has been cooked. How dare the soldiers mutiny?

He Lingchuan rolled his eyes, turned to Sun Fuping and asked, "The bottom of the pool should be filled with water, right?"

"Correct."

"What if it's not clear water?" The focus of He Lingchuan's thinking is here, "Can other liquids work?"

"for example?"

"Blood." In order to prevent these two guys from thinking wrong and making human sacrifices or something, he quickly clarified, "I'm talking about the blood of monsters or strange beasts. There are big guys in the Panlong Desert, so get some of them." Bloodletting should not be difficult."

Sun Fuping's eyes lit up immediately: "It makes sense! Rewarding gods is often used for blood sacrifices, and blood is mixed into the pool. Dafang pot probably won't mind it, but likes it instead." He threw the walnut boat to Nian Songyu, then pointed to He Lingchuan, "You take people to the desert and bring back some giant beasts."

……

Everyone supplemented with Du Hun San and entered the desert again.

Desert creatures and triceratops are more active on cooler nights.Nian Songyu released a walnut boat for everyone to stand on, and ordered the boatman to put bait into the sand for fishing.

Nian Songyu was standing and He Lingchuan was sitting, neither bothering to look at each other.

This time the fishing was not going well, and there was no prey biting the hook for a long time.He Lingchuan's back was sore from sitting, and whenever a few three corpse insects wandered off the walnut boat, he called someone to come over and beat his back.

"Comfortable, good! Go down a little bit, yes, go down! Use some strength."

The young master of the He family sighed in comfort.The hedonism is indeed debilitating. Who would have thought that three months ago, he was still an otaku who felt uncomfortable when someone approached him within half a meter of his body?
Nian Songyu shook her head secretly, but saw He Lingchuan closed her eyes and asked, "Why did Captain Nian come to Heishui City?"

"what?"

"The mission of no survivors, how can General Zhengbei be willing to let his son end in person?" He Lingchuan rolled his eyes, "Is he your real father?"

Nian Songyu twitched: "Didn't Magistrate He let you follow? Are you not his seed?"

Ginseng rooster, people without literary talents are not euphemistic.He Lingchuan waved his hand, and with a sound of "Duo", he shot the dagger and nailed it to the wooden bar that Nian Songyu was leaning on.

By the way, he's still pretty bad at throwing now.When the flying knife was shot, he didn't know where the knife would end up.

Before Nian Songyu could respond, the guards under him had already rushed two steps forward, their swords were out of their sheaths, and they were about to yell at He Lingchuan.

He Lingchuan put his finger in front of his lips and "hush", and said first: "Shut up, don't scare the prey away!" He pointed down the boat, "If you forget the top priority, be careful with military law!"

Nian Songyu waved his subordinates back, and said lightly: "I can live, but you may not. Be obedient and be a good dog, then maybe you and your father can go back alive. Otherwise, Mrs. Ying will be a widow , and as for your brother—"

He licked his lips, his eyes showed a bit of cruelty in excitement: "Don't worry, whether you are dead or alive, I will definitely find a way to help him return to the capital. He must be very popular in the capital!"

He Lingchuan stared at him, and slowly lowered his face.

Xunzhou Mu, Da Sima, and Sun Guoshi, why are these three major forces mixed together?
Maybe Dad shouldn't have taken over the task of Dafang Pot?
Just as He Lingchuan was about to speak, the fishing rod in the boatman's hand suddenly sank, almost dragging him directly off the bow.

The prey has finally bit the hook!

Then everyone worked together and finally got the things under the sand up.

This is still an earth dragon, but it is two sizes smaller than the two predecessors in the daytime, so it can be stuffed into the boat.
