Long Xiaoyuan and Liu Suifeng walked for a long time.

After they walked for half a day from the canbin and Long had been too tired to continue, they still didn’t meet any one.

The places they passed by were all desolate and had few wild animals.

Thanked to Liu who caught two rabbits, Long was not starved to death.

Long and Liu roasted the two rabbits instead of keeping on their journey. But they started to worry the lack of drinking water since they didn’t see any water source during this period.

They just had a little water left.

After being full up, their water become less, which would only be enough for them to drink on the day at most.

Actually, Long and Liu didn’t walk slowly, so it could be seen that this place was too desolate.

“Where the hell are we? There’s nothing here.” Long frowned.

Liu said with a calm voice, “Let’s keep walking. There will be an exit at the end of the road.”

“Alas, I hope so.” Long pursed his lips.

Long missed Shi Qingzhou very much at the moment, but unfortunately Shi wasn’t here.

When they continued the journey, Liu dared not slow down because he was afraid of failing to find a water source if they didn’t walk a long way.

Long was also concerned about the water source. Luckily, heaven would always leave a door open.

In the late afternoon, they finally found a brook which was partially dried up.

Glancing at each other, Long and Liu both let out a sigh of relief.

“We’d better take more water this time since we don’t know when we will find another water source later.” Liu suggested.

“Hmm, you’re right.” Long nodded his head vigorously, because the feeling of thirst was really unbearable for him.

“Eh, there are little fishes.” Long was surprised.

Liu was a bit stunned. He looked over the brook and also found some fishes.

Although the fishes were tiny, they could live in this partially dried-up brook…

It proved that water in the brook was running, or the parts underground were connected so that the water came out was running.

“There certainly will be water sources!” Long concluded.

Liu nodded, “Right, there won’t be little fishes otherwise.”

Long and Liu were excited for this discovery because water sources ignited their hope of finding a way out.

It was known that a dead land wouldn’t have a way out.

If there was a way out, there would be humans living here.

As long as they met any human here, they would know what this place was.

“You stay here, and I’ll go around to catch rabbits.” Liu said.

“Will you go straight ahead? We didn’t see any wild animal along the way.”

“No.” Liu shook his head, “We walked in a straight line before. Some wild animals were probably afraid of humans, so they might run away when finding us. I’ll look for prey around here.”

Long gave him a node, “Okay, I’ll take a break here.”

“Hmm… we probably have to sleep out tonight. This place is not bad.”

“Got it… take care of yourself.” Long warned Liu.

Liu looked at Long, “You are the one to be cautious. Just shout loudly when in danger.”

Long looked embarrassed, thinking he was not a woman and he would feel so ashamed if he shouted loudly when in danger.

But he knew he should focus on how to live instead of his feeling at the moment.

After Liu walked away, Long washed his face with water in the brook.

Long was sure that water in the partially dried-up brook was running water since dead water was not so clear.

In view of having nothing to do now, Long observed the brook… with the hope of finding the place spurting out water.

But as things stood, it seemed that the place was probably located underground.

When Liu came back, carrying a thin river deer, Long was still walking around the brook.

“What are you looking at?” Liu asked.

Long answered, “Nothing. Eh, river deer? It is too thin.”

“How fat can it grow in such a desolate place? River deer is different from rabbit.”

“But no matter how thin it is, it will have much more meat than the two rabbits.” Long added.

“Hmm. We can be full up tonight. I got some fruit which can make our food taste better.”

Long’s eyes brightened, “That is to say we can eat seasoned food?”

Liu smiled, “Yes.”

“Liu Suifeng, well done.” Long generously praised Liu.

“I’m so smart that I didn’t let you die with Zhou Heng. Otherwise I had to look for food by myself and even would be badly injured in the river after I jumped into the river alone. Liu Suifeng, you are of great benefit.”

Liu was speechless to what Long said.

When the delicious smell wafted through the air, Long swallowed before closing his eyes in happiness.

“Hum… it tastes so delicious.”

Liu glanced at Long, “Hmm, the fruit works magic.”

Long couldn’t help saying, “The fruit is really a good thing.

People would feel something wrong with them if they didn’t have salt for several days. But this fruit could solve this problem.

Long happily enjoyed this dinner.

The two men shared the river deer and only had some bones left.

After the dinner, Long had a walk to help digestion.

And Liu went to find a lot of hay and carried them back.

“Are they for sleep?” Long asked.

Liu nodded, “Yes, it is cold here at night. The weeds around here were higher and could help keep out the wind, but it is still too cold. I think we will be warmer if I lay more hay on the ground and put some of them on our bodies.”

Long didn’t want to stand aside and let Liu do all the work, “Are they enough? Let me help.”

Liu didn’t count on Long, but he also would not refuse Long’s help, “Good.”

Long and Liu carried more hay back and laid a thick layer on the ground. Then they lay down.

It was already dark when Long and Liu put the rest hay on their bodies.

“Although the hay was heavy, it makes me feel warmer.”

“Hmm.” Liu pulled the hay under his body, “The bed we made were wide enough, please stay away from me at night.”

“I would not like to stay close to you since you are not my Qingzhou.”

Liu sneered, “That’s better.”

They fell asleep after talking for a while.

Long and Liu had walked for a whole day, which made both of them feel exhausted.

If Liu still had his internal force, he would not be tired.

But his internal forced was sealed.

And Liu didn’t have time to break through the seal on the way.

Liu started breaking through the seal for his internal force when lying on the hay…

At the same time, Long fell into a deep sleep soon.

Then Long had a dream.

He dreamed about Shi Qingzhou who was… in the graveyard.

The graveyard looked horrific and spooky.

Shi kept going ahead. Long asked Shi to stop, but Shi couldn’t hear Long.

Long had no idea what this place was and why his Qingzhou was here.

Shi didn’t hear anything even if Long called him several times.

Long could only follow Shi.

Shi continued to walk upward after passing through the graveyard.

There seemed to be a mountain. Did Shi intend to go up the mountain?
