Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 124: Fumbling forward
In their eyes, quicksand is an extremely evil thing. Even if they know that the people trapped in it can be rescued, they are still very scared.
After all, seeing Lin Yun's current appearance, one knew that this was an extremely painful thing.
Everyone just stopped. Even if Lin Yun's body was not seriously injured, everyone stopped moving forward in a tacit understanding.
This quicksand looks no different from ordinary sand. They are afraid that if they fall in accidentally, they will be in trouble. In their eyes, the road ahead is similar to a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.
Yao Shu did not urge everyone to hurry up. She could basically guess what everyone was thinking.
Not to mention other people, he was also very scared.
Not long after walking into the desert, something like this happened. Looking forward, there was no hope of getting out. Under such circumstances, it was inevitable for everyone to give up.
Everyone in Dahe Village stopped in place with worried faces, looking at the reactions of the village chief and Yao Shu from time to time.
These two people have to make the decision for such a big thing.
At this time, the village chief was also discussing with Yao Shu. When he came to Yao Shu, the village chief couldn't express his intention. He couldn't explain this half-assed matter.
He knew this was not good, but he was also worried that there would be more dangers waiting for them ahead.
"Sister-in-law, do we still want to move forward?"
"Let's go. As long as you're careful, you'll be fine. Everyone, watch your steps and walk together."
Yao Shu did not waver in her thoughts. It was just quicksand, and it would not stop her from moving forward.
Seeing her such a sure answer, the village chief's doubts were swallowed back in his stomach. He couldn't say anything more. The current danger was indeed out of his sight.
It's just the unknown danger that scares everyone.
When we set off again, everyone's pace was much slower, especially those who were at the front exploring the road. They wanted to turn back every step for fear of sinking into the sand.
This was not a big problem at first, but gradually Yao Shu realized a crisis.
If they continue at their current pace, the time it takes to cross the desert will inevitably speed up. They may not have enough water, and their food reserves are not very abundant.
The shorter the time spent crossing the desert, the better.
Yao Shu was worried about this matter in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. Everyone's emotions were already relatively sensitive at the moment, and she couldn't make people panic anymore.
She simply didn't notice the slow pace of the young man walking in front. He was walking like an old lady, which made people anxious.
In the final analysis, I still used my feet to explore the path to delay time. It would have been better if I had a wooden stick.
Yao Shu looked around and saw that there were no trees in this huge desert, let alone sticks. She didn't even need to look for them, as she knew there wouldn't be such things in the desert.
No matter how slow everyone is, they are always moving forward.
"Hey, it's detected that the host has arrived at a new location. Do you want to check in?"
"Punch the card."
The familiar system sound sounded, and Yao Shu just realized that they had gone a long way forward. It was only because the surrounding scenery had not changed that she did not react.
"The new location has been successfully checked in. The reward is 100 bamboo sticks. The items have been distributed. Do you want to receive it?"
"Receive and store the system backpack."
A big smile appeared on her face. This was really good news. It seemed that the system was still considerate, and this time it solved her urgent need.
Put outside, these bamboo sticks are worthless things, but now they can provide them with convenience.
After getting the things, Yao Shu was worried about how to take out the bamboo sticks. She didn't want to expose herself.
Unfortunately, there were no people around here, let alone a bamboo forest. She didn't even see a bamboo leaf. At the moment, she couldn't think of a suitable excuse to explain the origin of the bamboo sticks to everyone.
She rubbed her head worriedly.
"Old lady, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Shen Nanshan quickly noticed Yao Shu's movements, and he asked with concern.
Even he could tell that Yao Shu looked very distressed now, as if she had encountered some big trouble.
"It's okay, it's just that the wind makes my head hurt."
Yao Shu made a random excuse. Her eyes fell on Shen Nanshan, and a thought suddenly came to her mind. She couldn't take out the bamboo sticks by herself, so she still needed to find someone to help.
Among all the people, the one who reassured her the most was Shen Nanshan.
Although the children in the family are also very good and even stronger, after thinking about it, Shen Nanshan is more suitable.
That's because Shen Nanshan never asked her too much about her reasons. She always said whatever she said.
After thinking for a moment, Yao Shu made up her mind and decided it was him.
Even though she had made up her mind, Yao Shu did not discuss it with Shen Nanshan immediately. Everything remained the same as before, walking forward in silence until the sun set and everyone stopped to rest.
In this desert, they couldn't even make a fire, so they could only eat dry food randomly.
The sky quickly darkened, and Yao Shu whispered in Shen Nanshan's ear.
"Don't rush to sleep at night."
If she hadn't warned him earlier, Shen Nanshan would have fallen asleep long ago according to his past habits. It was seen that he was already old, but his sleep was excellent.
"What are we going to do?"
After hearing Yao Shu's explanation, Shen Nanshan became excited instantly.
Every time Yao Shu told him alone, it was a big deal. Many years passed through his mind. Could it be that the Lord of Hell was sending them food again? That would be perfect.
These days, he has always been eating hard dry food pancakes, and he has long wanted to change the taste.
Yao Shu didn't expect him to have such a big reaction. She didn't know what to say for a moment. She was afraid that she would disappoint him this time. After all, she was purely required to do hard work.
"Work."
"Then do you want to call the boss and the others?"
As soon as he heard that he was going to work, Shen Nanshan's enthusiasm immediately retreated. He was already a grandfather, so he should leave the work to his son. He had already reached the age where he should enjoy happiness.
This was his calculation, and Yao Shu rolled her eyes silently.
If Shen Qiu and the others could be allowed to intervene, she would not directly tell Shen Nanshan. The people who knew about this matter were getting better and better.
Although she didn't speak, Shen Nanshan already felt the danger, but he changed his tune after a moment.
"No need to call them. I can do it alone. This old bone is not rusty yet."
"You can come with me after dark."
Yao Shu nodded.
