Myriad Realms Free Mercenaries

Chapter 947
"Brother Chen, Brother Yang, Luo Shuai, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." The two sides greeted each other, and Ouyang Fei apologized to Chen Yulou and the others.

Chen Yulou smiled and said: "Brother Ou, you are serious. I can't wait to be grateful for your help. I just wait a little longer. It's not worth it."

Partridge Whistle greeted Ou Huamin and Wang Ping, "Uncle Ou, Aunt Ping."

Hua Ling asked curiously: "Brother Ou, aren't Grandpa Chen and the others here?"

Ouyang Fei nodded and said: "My father-in-law and mother-in-law went to the middle of Sichuan. I heard that there are evildoers harming people there. They went to subdue them. The old man went to the north. This time, the five of us will accompany you to the ancient city of Jingjue."

At this time, Chen Yulou also knew that Ou Huamin was Ouyang Fei's father, and greeted him respectfully, calling him uncle. Everyone else had met him before and was already very familiar with him.

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone returned to the valley together. Luo Laowai leaned over to Ou Jingyan's side and asked with great interest: "Sister Jingyan, what is the name of that song you just sang? It's really nice."

Ou Jingyan said casually: "Just sing casually! That song is called Desert Camel."

"Hey, I really didn't see it, the girl still has this skill, I can sing more in the future, listening to you sing, brother, my mood has become much more comfortable."

"If you like it, I will teach you in the future! Some songs are especially suitable for you soldiers to sing together."

"Okay, if you teach those bastards how to sing, they will be much more motivated, haha."

Back at the camp, it happened to be dinner time, everyone had dinner together, and Luo Laowai really organized everyone to learn singing from Ou Jingyan.

Ou Jingyan didn't hold back, and taught them a song "Brothers, One Life". In the end, more than 1000 people sang in unison, and they really sang with a bit of enthusiasm.

After resting in the valley for one night, the team set off early the next morning before the sun rose.

It is not realistic to buy more than 1000 camels in a short period of time, and it is easy to attract the attention of interested people. After all, the Western Regions are Yang Zengxin's territory. If he targets him, he will be in big trouble.

So the four hundred or so camels were all used to carry food, water, tents and other supplies, and all the personnel walked. When they came back, those camels were naturally carrying gold, jade and treasure.

The road between the Hercynian region and the Taklamakan Desert is a deserted Gobi desert, but there are large and small freshwater lakes and rivers everywhere. Although there are certain dangers, compared to the desert, everything is nothing no more.

Most of those dangers came from wolves and various poisonous insects, but the soldiers of Luo Laowai's regiment were all armed with long and short firearms, so the wolves, which were originally the biggest threat, were not really a threat.

Wolves can only threaten small camel caravans or lone pedestrians forever. No pack of wild beasts can pose a threat to a modern army.

As for poisonous insects, the warriors and sappers who drilled in the deep mountains and old forests and various mausoleums all year round naturally carried anti-poisonous insect powder.

It took less than a month to reach the Tarim Basin, the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, without any danger.

The initial distance, about [-] to [-] kilometers, is not considered a desert at all. There is a Chelchen River on the edge of the desert, and the surrounding sand is also very shallow. There are scattered small lakes everywhere.

Chen Yulou and the others made very good preparations. In addition to each person carrying half a month's worth of dry food, the camels also carried enough food for all of them for three months.

And before entering the desert and completely losing food supplements, they tried not to consume the food they brought with them. The wild animals in the Western Regions were rich in resources, which provided them with a lot of meat.

Such as wild donkeys, wild yaks, wild horses, antelopes, mink bears, etc. When Ouyang Fei and the others explored the route before, they chose the route where these wild animals were concentrated.

Therefore, when they reached the edge of the Taklamakan, they did not consume a lot of food and replenished drinking water along the way, keeping all water bladders full at any time.

After entering the desert for a few days, they really entered the desert. There was no food or water for a long distance, and they could only consume the food they carried.

However, with the consumption of food and water, the burden of people and camels gradually became lighter, and they became more and more relaxed.

The Taklimakan Desert is a mobile desert, with strong winds blowing the sand dunes, and the landform changes every day without any features. Naturally, there is no target that can be used as a reference. It is impossible to go back the same way.

And as time goes by, after a few winds, even the footprints will disappear. If you can't return to the starting point before the footprints disappear, then you are likely to get lost in the desert.

Chen Yulou said to Ouyang Fei with some admiration: "Brother Ou, I really have to admire you. In such an environment, you can successfully find a route. Only gods like you can do it."

"But I still have to ask a question, how did you determine the orientation without any reference? This is related to whether we can get out of the desert smoothly."

After hearing what Chen Yulou said, everyone looked at Ouyang Fei and the others. This was a matter related to their lives, so they had to figure it out.

Ouyang Fei smiled slightly, his spiritual consciousness spread out, he sensed it, and then pointed in a direction and said, "Look over there."

Everyone turned their heads one after another, Ouyang Fei murmured a few incantations, and everyone only heard "Chi".

Seeing the direction they were looking at, a large group of dark clouds suddenly formed in the distant sky out of thin air. The next moment, a thunderbolt suddenly descended from the group of dark clouds. After a while, they heard a thunderclap coming from afar.

Everyone looked at this scene in amazement, "Brother Ou, what is this?"

Ou Jingyan smiled and explained: "It's actually very simple. When we were exploring the road, every time we walked a certain distance, we would find a place with a water source, or an oasis, and set up a five-thunder formation."

"That formation can gather the aura of heaven and earth on its own. We cultivators are the most sensitive to changes in the aura of heaven and earth, so as long as we walk in the direction where the aura is relatively rich, we will definitely not go wrong."

Mucha added: "Even if due to some irresistible natural factors, the aura is disordered and the senses are not clear, we can use the Taoist method to activate the formation and thunder from the sky, so naturally we won't get lost."

After listening to Ou Jingyan and Mucha's explanation, everyone was determined, and they all praised the miracle in admiration. The soldiers and warriors around Xiling who heard their words passed the words on from time to time. The sergeants and warriors also felt relieved, no longer worrying about their own safety.
