"Have we arrived?" it asked cautiously.
"Yes," Jiang An replied with a smile.
Several herbivores were drinking quietly by the stream under the scorching sun near the oasis.
They are gentle and peaceful, quite unlike fierce carnivores.
These herbivores only dare to come to drink water during the day, because the night belongs to the carnivores.
Jiang An had noticed them when he entered the oasis, but he didn't pay them any attention.
With her current strength, the fighting power of these herbivores is negligible to her.
Moreover, when she and the little turtle entered the oasis and reached the water source, the herbivores had already sensed their presence and fled into the desert, disappearing without a trace.
Jiang An reached into her pocket, gently took out the little turtle, and tenderly placed it in the babbling brook.
She said softly, "Alright, little turtle, you can play here to your heart's content now!"
The little turtle felt the coolness of the stream and was extremely excited, swimming happily back and forth in the water.
It happily said to Jiang An, "This place is so comfortable, Mom. Let's live nearby from now on, so we can be closer to the oasis."
However, Jiang An shook his head without hesitation and directly rejected the little turtle's request.
She explained earnestly, "That won't do, honey. Have you forgotten the terrible pack of wolves we encountered last night? There are far more animals around here at night than we ever saw!"
In fact, Jiang An had already sensed something was wrong. When she stepped into this area, her keen sense of smell detected a faint, almost imperceptible, scent of blood.
Clearly, a fierce battle had taken place here, and the animal flesh that was not seen must have been divided up as food and disappeared without a trace, leaving only a faint smell of blood.
After saying this, Jiang An took out a moisture-proof mat from his storage ring, carefully laid it on the tender green grass, and then slowly sat down.
She removed her sunglasses, face mask, and sun-protective gloves, and put them into her storage ring.
In the crystal-clear stream, Jiang An bent down, cupped her hands together to form a small bowl shape, and gently scooped up a handful of cool stream water.
Then, bury your face in the puddle in your hand and feel the refreshing coolness spread instantly.
The coolness felt like a gift from nature, greatly relieving and relaxing her tired body and mind.
She quietly enjoyed the tranquility and comfort; time seemed to stand still at that moment.
After a while, she slowly put the water in her hands and her whole hands into the stream, feeling the water gently caressing her fingers, and lingered there for a long time, reluctant to leave.
She reluctantly left the stream only after the heat in her body gradually dissipated.
Then, she took out a bottle of water from her storage ring, eagerly opened the cap, and drank it in large gulps.
The cool water flowed down my throat, moistening my parched body.
In less than a minute, she drank the entire bottle of water.
However, the thirst did not completely disappear, so she quickly took out another bottle of water and drank it down eagerly.
After drinking two 500ml bottles of water, her body was finally able to replenish the water she lacked to some extent.
After drinking the water, Jiang An took out several large wooden buckets from his backpack and placed them neatly beside the stream.
She started filling the buckets with water, and soon the first bucket was full.
She packed the buckets full of water into her backpack, then began filling the next bucket. She continued this process tirelessly until all the buckets she had brought were full.
After completing the watering task, Jiang An decided to begin exploring this lush green place.
When she arrived yesterday, she only took a quick look around and got a basic understanding of the oasis, but some details still need further observation.
Now, she has enough time and energy to carefully study this mysterious and beautiful place.
As far as she knew, the oasis was a good place to resupply, and that encountering an oasis in the desert meant survival, but what exactly was inside was unknown.
Continue along the oasis, deeper and deeper.
