Chapter 195 They brought back water! Water!

A heavy sigh suddenly rang out from the crowd around.

"This guy is quite powerful!" Lu Yuan exclaimed in his heart.

The other person's muscles were still tense, which meant he was not unconscious.

The three form-based skills, "Iron Finger Print", "Giant Strength" and "Hardening", are both offensive and defensive and are quite sharp.

If Lu Yuan's attributes were not twice that of his opponent, he might not be his opponent in a pure melee with the same attributes.

Of course, under the skills of God, we are all ants.

Attack power can be replaced by technological weapons, and defense power can be replaced by wearing armor.

However, the divine skills are irreplaceable, and these warriors find it difficult to resist the soul-killing ability of the "Eternal Fire" alone.

A few seconds later, Shakaner got up from the ground and patted his butt.

His calf ached slightly. He didn't expect that he would lose in just a few moves. It was obvious that the opponent let him go on purpose.

The gap in the middle may be several levels.

I didn't argue at the moment and just performed the etiquette to show my respect.

Then he slowly retreated, complained with a wry smile, "Elder, there is no way I can defeat him. Is that red light the extraordinary fire? It feels even more powerful than the Imperial instructor... The other party didn't even use his full strength."

The elder also saw it and comforted him, "It's normal... Only with this kind of force can we cross the desert and tame this chicken snake!"

He planned to invite this person to settle in the village, even if it was just to discuss some knowledge or trade some goods.

"This place is too dangerous. It's really not a good place to live."

But when I thought that the other party could even tame a monster-like hen and let it live here, it seemed like nothing, I couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

Finally, he slapped his head and made an invitation: "This brave man, are you willing to come to the village and sit for a while?"

"Our village is extremely poor, but there are still places to rest and entertain people."

Naturally, Lu Yuan wanted nothing more than to do so. He wanted to see what the "martial arts" of this race were, and he also wanted to get information about the City in the Sky.

But he still pretended to think for about ten seconds.

The people of Sandi began to hesitate and feel lost, and then they slowly nodded: "Since we have nothing to do, we might as well go and take a look."

The old cat couldn't stand it anymore and started scratching his head: "This guy is really pretentious. Conch, don't try to imitate him."

Conch translated: [If you have nothing to do, you can go and see it. There is no need to prepare too many formalities. ]

The old cat was shocked. He actually used classical Chinese. This guy is so elegant. He suddenly remembered that the cat Mama also had the title of "Tiger's Elegance". Thinking about his current nervousness, he couldn't help but twitch all over.

…

Just like that, Lu Yuan said goodbye to the old hen incubating eggs under the tree, watered his vegetables a little, and under the resentful gaze of the old hen, followed the Sandi tribe to their residence.

This small village is about 40 kilometers away from the Sky City.

Almost a day’s walk.

The sky was still filled with yellow sand, but the ground had become noticeably harder.

A few poplar trees grow crookedly on the cracked ground.

Even this most drought-resistant plant has lost all its leaves and is no longer as miraculous as it once was.

Near a dry karez stands a pavilion with faded wooden pillars.

The blue-gray stone road is covered with a thin layer of yellow sand.

I think this must be a great work of "God". "God" moved a piece of crust from another world intact into the desert, so these infrastructures still exist.

There were people patrolling in the pavilion. When they saw the large army returning, the patrolmen showed excitement and joy, and ran into the village, yelling.

“I’m back!”

"They brought back the water! WATER!!"

Life in this world must be too difficult. Even though the expedition team did not fill up their bags with water, only about one third, it still solved the urgent problem.

The whole village cheered for the appearance of the water, and all the women and the elderly ran out.

Lu Yuan let out a sigh and lowered his head to check the karez.

Not a drop of water left.

The soil was just barely moist, and some drought-resistant plants like cacti grew in it.

The Sandy tribe relied on these cacti as food and survived till now...

Some barefoot children came running over and spotted the tricycle. They looked around curiously and talked about something.

Especially when they saw the huge tortoise tied up, their eyes were full of wonder, and they said some aboriginal slang: "Love the face-washing drama!"

[They said that this turtle must taste delicious and very competitive.]

[They actually know Turtle Turtle...]

"If we keep chopping off the turtle's limbs and letting it regenerate, can we feed everyone?" Lu Yuan suddenly had a crooked idea.

[Ah? You are such a scumbag, you actually want to cook your own brother! ]

Lu Yuan couldn't help but tease her: "How am I a scumbag? This is called sacrificing one person to save thousands of people. Do you understand that this is a fearless spirit of dedication?"

"My good brother is now insane. It won't feel any pain if you chop off his head."

Hai Luo, who was highly educated and had high moral standards, was confused. A simple person like her was obviously no match for the old man. She said, "I always feel that something is wrong, but I am limited by my knowledge and cannot refute it for the time being."

A day later, the turtle's wounds had long since healed, but it was still unconscious. When it saw the child, it shouted and threatened: "Waaaaaa!"

Several children were frightened and cried, took a few steps back, and fell to the ground like dominoes.

Several women wearing camel-hair clothes hurried over to coax the children.

"Lu Yuan, your wish to find a partner is about to come true." The old cat asked seriously, "These humanoid creatures should be in line with your aesthetic taste?"

Lu Yuan rolled his eyes. Although he was a humanoid creature, his skin was brown... Well, it didn't matter too much. No matter what skin color a person was, they all had beautiful looks.

The most fatal thing is that no matter whether it is a man, a child, or a woman, because they have not taken a bath for a long time, their bodies are covered with scabies...

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

I, Old Lu, now have to block my sense of smell. Do you know how painful it is for me? ! Because of the arrival of the guests, the village slaughtered an old camel... Actually, Lu Yuan felt that it was unnecessary, but it was hard to refuse such a kind invitation.

The way camels are cooked is a bit like fried chicken. First, they are bled and skinned, then thrown into a sand full of mineral salts and roasted with a black soil.

Looking at the black smoke and smelling the odor, Lu Yuan couldn't help but doubt his life: Isn't that... oil?

Soon, the whole roasted camel was cooked, the skin was golden and crispy, and it tasted a bit like dried beef? Quite chewy.

This camel weighed nearly 500 kilograms, and everyone in the village got a piece of meat.

Children are always carefree. If they get a bite to eat, they will be very happy. They will eat with oil dripping from their mouths, somersault on the ground and play with stones.

The adults talked about the scenes they saw in the sky city, and lamented: "Someone from the next village went crazy and rushed in after having a dream..."

This may be the original sin of the weak race. Even if the safe zone was abolished early and more time for development was gained, what would it matter?

These natural and man-made disasters alone are enough to cause them to slowly become extinct.

If it doesn't rain, the extinction will happen in the next few years.

In a few decades, the village will be swallowed up by the desert, and no one will know that a weak civilization once existed here.

Lu Yuan actually didn’t have any particularly good solution, because the village was quite large, with several thousand people.

The ten villages together have a population of nearly 50,000.

How could he protect the daily lives of tens of thousands of people? Moreover, he was tempted by the Sky City and went mad. Lu Yuan had no way to save him... His good brother, the Undying Giant Turtle, had not yet regained consciousness.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan stood up, ran to the tricycle and beat the turtle that was making a "ga ga" noise.

By the way, I secretly took out some fruits and gave them to the children.

These little guys were naturally overjoyed. They looked at Lu Yuan, who had purple skin, with their big eyes and laughed “hehehe”.

I didn't expect that this weirdo was actually a good person.

"Ahem!" Lu Yuan didn't feel embarrassed. The pigment sprayed out by the flower bud settled into the cells, but it was not toxic. It should return to its original state after a while.

After dinner, a group of men gathered together and chatted casually.

"How much do you know about that city?" Lu Yuan pointed to the distance, "What kind of monsters are there?"

"It's been five years. We have so many villages and have sent many expedition teams. We have roughly explored the outer areas."

Elder Sandari frowned and recalled: "There was an extremely huge queen worm hiding in the sewers and occupying the water source of the sewers. It was about... the size of a two-story house."

"Not only will this bug multiply, it will also pollute part of the sewer water source, causing the water there to become subtly toxic, which will kill crops."

Lu Yuan nodded slightly, not knowing how strong this queen insect was.

"Didn't you ever think of killing it?"

"The one who saw it is already dead." Sha Sanli said with a wry smile, "That was a story three years ago..."

The Shali tribe is also not short of heroes. Three years ago, some warriors organized an expedition to fight against these powerful creatures and seize water sources.

But intelligent life always has its bad qualities. On the one hand, fighting in the dark and cramped sewers is really terrifying. Even with a large number of people, it is difficult to exert strength, and losing a life is just a matter of a moment.

On the other hand, before they even got the water, twenty villages had already started fighting over its distribution.

Who gets more water? Who distributes it? Who can bully others?

This is a distribution issue as well as a political issue.

So in the end, this proposal came to nothing.

Today, the population is dwindling, the number of warriors is decreasing, and it is impossible to organize such a battle.

"It's really like three monks with no water to drink..." Lu Yuan sighed in a low voice.
