The Crown Prince is Actually a Princess! - Chapter 297

There was still wind blowing between the sky and the earth, but it was very small, the yellow sand was full, floating in the air, accidentally blowing into the eyes and mouth, so they were covered with cloth towels to prevent accidents.

They rested enough, ready to move on.

Ghost image counted the supplies again, and his face was heavy, “Master, the water and dry food are reduced by half, only enough to last two days.”

Upon hearing this, Yuwen Zhantian became heavy, and asked Liu Yi: “Where are we? How many days will it take to get out of the desert?”

Liu Yi looked into the sky, looking far away, and then said: “I don’t know where this is… The storm just turned us off, and I was lost…”

“Then what to do?” Murongci asked anxiously.

“Don’t panic, Liu Yi has rich experience and can definitely take us out of the desert.” Yuwen Zhantian firmly said.

“The problem right now is that we must get out of the desert within three days if we are lost.” Murong Yu’s dirty and snowy face was heavy.

“I will try my best.” Liu Yidao.

“Everyone has the spirit of twelve points, we can definitely get out of the desert!” Ghost Ying raised his voice to boost morale.

The six subordinates shouted in unison, and their morale rose a little.

After some rectification, the group continued on.

Liu Yi said that although he has lost his way, the experienced camel will not lose his way and let the camel find its own way.

The leading camel turned to the east, so they went east.

Ghost Ying whispered to Murong Yu, “Is it reliable to let the camel find its way?”

Murong Yu said: “I can only trust him and the camel at the moment. The camel has traveled back and forth in this desert many times, with rich experience, at least better than us.”

No more ghosts.

Everyone didn’t dare to drink more water, endured it, and then endured it, so they became more and more tired, and the camels were also exhausted. Liu Yi said that he couldn’t ride anymore and let the camels rest. Everyone can only come down and walk on foot.

I couldn’t walk anymore, so I took a sip of water.

Suddenly, Murongci fell to the ground. Murong Yu didn’t see him in front. Yuwen Zhantian immediately rushed up, picked her up, took out the water bag and poured her a sip of water.

“My palace is not thirsty…” she said hoarsely, her voice low and weak, and her anger was like gossip.

“Don’t drink it anymore!” He was so annoyed that he gave her a sip of water.

Qin Ruo ran away worriedly, but because of panic, he tripped and fell to the ground.

The ghost rushed over and helped her up, eyes full of pity, “You can’t hold it anymore, you have to take care of yourself.”

She got up with his strength, “I will go and see your Royal Highness.”

“His Royal Highness is all right, you can drink some water.”

“I’m fine.”

However, as soon as she stood up, she was dizzy and fell into his arms.

Over there, Murong Yu rushed over and snatched A Ci from Yu Wen Zhantian’s arms, “A Ci, what do you think?”

He touched her forehead, but fortunately, there was no fever.

A Ci recovered from a serious illness, and he hurried to Ruoqiang before his physical strength was fully recovered. Compared to the past, his body was much weaker, and his physical strength was exhausted. Otherwise, with her years of martial arts training, how could she easily fall down.

Murongci shook his head and climbed up on his shoulders, his eyes regained his clarity, “It was just accidental.”

Yuwen Zhantian saw them so close, and saw her so delicate, complicated, and painful and pitiful.

The moment he held her, there were many thoughts in his heart. She was so weak and light, like a tiny yellow sand that would be blown away by the wind at any time. The softness and affection at that moment are better than countless lingering feelings.

Liu Yi in front of him had already walked a few feet away, and they continued to move forward.

Until dusk, they still didn’t know whether they were going in the right direction, and everything was left to their fate.

The ghost image was not at ease, and couldn’t help asking Liu Yi: “Is this direction right? You don’t want to blame us.”

Liu Yi said angrily: “What do you sirs do? You can’t get out of the desert, and I can’t get out.”

Yuwen Zhantian solemnly asked, “After walking for so long, can’t you still find your way?”

Liu Yi didn’t answer. He walked a few steps forward, knelt on the yellow sand, bowed his head reverently, and muttered something.

This time, his worship was more religious and he worshiped nine times.

Everyone waited innocently, watching him bow to the sky.

Suddenly, Qin Ruo exclaimed in surprise: “Look! What is that?”

Everyone followed the direction of her fingers, and Murongci saw a miraculous scene: The horizon in the distance seemed to be a tree, not high, but appeared abruptly in the vast yellow sand. The whole tree was shining like crystal and white like snow, shining with strange, dazzling and blurry light.

Liu Yi bowed in excitement, with a sad and pleasant voice, “God bless! God bless! God bless! God bless!”

Afterwards, he turned his head and said to the crowd: “Everyone, hurry down and bow down.”

The ghost was surprised and puzzled, “Kneel down to that tree?”

“This is the instruction of the gods, it is the manifestation of God! Following this direction is the right direction, you can get out of the desert.” Liu Yi said seriously.

“Really? That is to worship.” The subordinates ran forward to bow down, and no one wanted to die here.

The yellow sand reflected the crystal clear tree, the contrast was clear, and it became more and more like a god.

Murongci and Qin Ruo followed and knelt down sincerely, Murong Yu and Yu Wen Zhantian looked at each other for a moment, then they knelt down and bowed.

After kneeling, Liu Yi stood up and explained: “That is the sacred tree in the desert. Whenever you see such a sacred tree in the desert, it is the instruction of the gods and the manifestation of God. In the past, my father and I lost our way in the desert four times. I have seen this sacred tree, as long as you walk towards the sacred tree, you can find the direction and walk out of the desert.”

Murongci and Qin Ruo looked at each other, are they really so amazing?

He saw that they didn’t believe it, and then said: “You adults, don’t believe it, as long as you believe in this sacred tree, you can definitely get out of the desert. Otherwise, you won’t be able to get out of the desert.”

Ghost image quickly said: “We believe, how can we not believe it?”

After that, they walked towards the sacred tree, and finally approached the sacred tree after half an hour.

Ghost Ying muttered, “Isn’t this the Populus euphratica? Why is it that Populus euphratica is white and crystal clear from a distance?”

Yuwen Zhantian patted him on the shoulder, “Perhaps this is the magic of the desert. Let’s go.”

Murongci also found it incredible. Why did this sacred tree turn into an ordinary Populus euphratica?

There are so many unexplainable magical phenomena in the world.

This night, the wind was surprisingly cold, and Qin Ruo curled up and shivered, as did the others, covering all the clothes that could be covered. The ghost watched the night and untied her robe to cover her, and she fell asleep in a daze.

Murongci felt extremely tired and drowsiness, but it was too cold, as if the cold from all directions penetrated into his skin, it was cold from the inside, and he couldn’t sleep at all.

Yuwen Zhantian wanted to cover her with his tiger fur blanket, but saw Murong Yu first go over and cover her with the black cloak, so he didn’t go over.

Why is it always late?

Murongci opened his eyes, “You give me the Greatcloak, what do you do?”

“I’m not cold.” Murong Yu touched her forehead, tenderly, “Do you still feel cold?”

“It’s not so cold anymore.” She smiled, “You go to bed too.”

He lay down beside her, holding her little hand, “Go to sleep.”

She smiled slightly and closed her eyes in peace.

If there were not so many people, he would put her in his arms and sleep in each other’s arms.

Over there, Yuwen Zhantian looked at the stars in the sky and sighed sadly.

The night in the desert is cold and empty, and the stars are drooping and particularly bright. There is no human voice, there is no half smoke, and the boundless desolation makes people fearful.

The ghost sat blankly, always alert to the surrounding movement.

Suddenly, he heard a faint sound, and looked around, looking for the source of the sound.

After looking around, he suddenly opened his eyes and yelled in horror: “The prince, your Royal Highness, get up! There is a snake!”

A long snake crawled quickly in the sand, approaching Qin Ruo, and was about to bite her foot when he saw it. He immediately drew out a long sword and slayed it fiercely.

A ray of silver light flashed suddenly, like an electric shock across the desert night.

The snake had its head cut off and wilted.

Qin Ruo was awakened by his cry and saw the two snake bodies at his feet, Huarong turned pale with fright, and quickly stood up.

At this time, everyone was awakened, and at a glance, they realized that there were several snakes attacking them.

Murong Yu protected Murongci, and two snakes besieged them, spitting out the snake letter, and the snake stared at them.

“This is a desert viper with tentacles on its head. It is used to hunting for food at night. It is very venomous. Please be careful not to get bitten by a snake.” Murong Yu reminded.

“Isn’t it just a few snakes? What’s to be afraid of?” Yuwen Zhantian joked, pouring his internal strength into the sword, swiping it a few times, and the snake that attacked him was broken into several pieces.

Seeing their companions die so miserably, the other snakes suddenly raised their heads high and attacked them fiercely, bravely.

Ghost Ying and Qin Ruo worked together to deal with the two snakes, Murong Yu squinted coldly, and suddenly shot out with a palm. The viper immediately flew with flesh and blood, and the other viper was also broken into pieces.

Murongci breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the many snakes suddenly made his scalp numb.

Not long after, all the vipers were killed by them, and the sand was a mess, and there were broken limbs and blood of the vipers everywhere.

They shifted their positions and continued to sleep.

Murong Yu smiled softly, “It’s okay, go to sleep.”

Murongci nodded, lay down and fell asleep.

The night in the desert is still empty and desolate.

…

When they saw the towering and steep peaks from a distance, they couldn’t help cheering in excitement.

Qin Ruo and the ghost cheered and hugged each other excitedly.

Murong Yu and Murong Ci smiled at each other, holding hands tightly.

Everyone screamed and laughed with excitement, like a group of children who have not yet grown up.

After that, they rushed forward with great enthusiasm.

Although they looked close, they were far away, and it took them an hour to get out of the desert.

There was a shallow pond on the edge of the desert. Seeing the water, they seemed to see happiness waving at them and rushing away. Because there is no water in the water sac, they haven’t drank a drop of water all day, and their bodies are extremely dehydrated.

“Don’t drink! You can’t drink that water!” Liu Yi yelled and ran to stop him in a panic, “Don’t drink water!”

“Why can’t you drink it?” Ghost Ying stopped and asked.

“You can’t drink it anyway!” Liu Yi said anxiously.

A subordinate couldn’t help his body’s thirst. He lay down in the water and wanted to take a gulp. Liu Yi screamed, “Hurry up and get him out!”

Ghost image immediately grabbed the subordinate and reprimanded: “You are not allowed to drink, why not drink?”

The subordinate wanted to cry without tears, with a look of innocence, “I finally saw the water, why can’t I drink it? Is this water clean? I look pretty clean.”

Liu Yi explained: “It’s not a question of cleanliness. This water is too salty to drink.”

Yuwen Zhantian went on to say: “You can’t drink too salty water, just like sea water. You can’t drink it. It’s a truth. First bear with it.”

Murongci was surprised, “What happens if I drink it?”

Murong Yu said: “At this time, our body is in a state of extreme thirsty. If we drink these very salty water, it will be harmful to our body, and at worst we will die.”

Qin Ruo was speechless, “There is still this particularity. Then we run out of water, what should I do?”

Liu Yi said: “Go forward is Xuelong Mountain, there is water under the mountain, you can drink.”

Those subordinates had no choice but to resist the urge to drink water wildly and move on.

Murongci originally thought that she could drink water, but he didn’t expect it to work. The disappointment and physical strength had been exhausted to the limit, and the belief that supported her out of the desert instantly collapsed, her limbs weakened and she fell to the ground.

Murong Yu hugged her in shock, pity and pain in his heart, and shouted in a mute voice: “A Ci…A Ci…”

Yuwen Zhantian was also anxious and worried, and said: “Aci must be unable to hold it. We have no water anymore, so quickly go forward to find water.”

With the help of Qin Ruo, Murong Yu carried Aci on his back and hurried to Xuelong Mountain.

Those subordinates are one step ahead, looking for water first.

It took another half day to reach the foot of Xuelong Mountain. Fortunately, those subordinates really found water and picked some ripe fruits for everyone to eat.

Murong Ci drank water and finally recovered after a long while.

Seeing the sunlight-like aurora gleaming high in the sky, she squinted, feeling like a dream, not knowing where she was.

Is this a mirage? Why is the sky so bright?

“Aci…Aci…” Murong Yu called anxiously.

“Your Highness… Your Highness…” Qin Ruo was anxious.

Murongci’s eyes rolled a few times, then he turned to see a familiar face, Murong Yu.

Finally the soul returned.

“Where is this?” she asked weakly.

“We are at Xuelong Mountain.” Yuwen Zhantian smiled.

“His Royal Highness, we are out of the desert and we are all right.” Qin Ruo also smiled.

She got up excitedly, Murong Yu supported her and looked at the towering mountain not far away. Suddenly, her brows were sour and tears filled her eyes.

Xuelong Mountain…great…

That means they are one step closer to the goal.

He touched her hand and forehead, and asked worriedly: “Aci, are you okay? Feel uncomfortable there?”

Murongci shook his head, “Fortunately, I feel tired and weak.”

Yuwen Zhantian suggested: “It’s better to rest at the foot of the mountain for one night, and we will go back to the mountain tomorrow when we recover.”

Everyone agrees that the journey can be better if you take a break.
