The Road to Slaying God

Soon, the boy found a forest of Populus euphratica trees. The dry Populus euphratica trees stood like pacesetters in the desert.

Poplar euphratica trees are 15 to 30 meters tall and can sprout seedlings from their roots. It can endure drought in the desert and has strong tolerance for salt and alkali. The roots of Populus euphratica can penetrate 10 meters underground to absorb water. Its cells also have special functions and are not damaged by alkaline water. Populus euphratica is an ancient Mediterranean species and is an ancient tree species remaining in the third century.

Traveling in the desert is often silent, but even though it is the Gobi, it is not boring. In this vast Gobi Desert wasteland, even a tree in the distance is definitely a different kind of scenery. Seeing Populus euphratica, the unexpected and mysterious Populus euphratica is definitely a sight to behold.

Although Populus euphratica has extremely strong vitality, it can survive for a thousand years without dying, survive for a thousand years without falling, and remain immortal for a thousand years after falling. But it cannot escape the disaster of long-term waterlessness. The thousand-year-old Populus euphratica will not live for a hundred years and will shed tears in the sea of ​​sand.

Now, this is a dead Populus euphratica forest, covering an area of ​​only a few dozen acres. It looks particularly monotonous in the vast desert under the moonlight.

After the two collected some branches, the boy began to make a chirping sound similar to that of an animal. Soon, dozens of jerboas appeared sneakily around. Obviously, this Populus euphratica forest should have been the habitat of jerboas. .

When he saw the young man hunting jerboa with slightly larger gravel, Zhang Yang realized that this young man was far more powerful than he thought.

Soon, the boy hunted seven or eight jerboas.

The two got some dead branches and lit a fire. The night in the desert was very cold. In fact, at this time, the jumping mice had very little activity. They were about to enter the hibernation period, and some were already hibernating.

While building a fire, Zhang Yang discovered that the boy had a lot of experience in surviving in the wild. In the small bag on his waist, there were a lot of bits and pieces, including fire, salt, some urgent medicines, and even... And the battery...

The young man skinned the jerboa very skillfully and removed the internal organs and head. It felt very clean. Then, he sprinkled some salt grains on it and put it next to the fire to roast.

"Do you often live in the wild?" Zhang Yang couldn't help but ask as he looked at the young man's skillful movements.

"No, this is the first time."

Zhang Yang was stunned by the boy's answer. Seeing the boy's skillful movements and rich experience, no one would think that it was his first time living in the wild.

"Haha, it's not surprising. Ask a few people who know about wild life and they will understand this. In fact, in addition to a wide range of knowledge, survival mainly requires strength. For example, we seem to be living a leisurely life eating roasted jerboa. , however, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to do it. First of all, it would be difficult for them to lure out the jerboa that is about to enter hibernation. In addition, even if the jerboa is lured out, it will not be caught at all. So, if You and I are ordinary people. In this desert, there is only one way to starve to death. Even if there is food everywhere, we can't get it into our stomachs..."

"Yes, strength..."

Zhang Yang couldn't help but feel dazed for a while. The difference in strength between him and the young man was not measured in miles. At least, the young man could live a pleasant life in the desert, and he could hunt down the king of the desert for five days and five nights, and he , almost became food in the wolf's belly.

"Don't worry, you will get it soon. Your progress is very rapid. The last time we met, you were still a rookie who had not started, an ordinary person oppressed by a group of ordinary gangsters. Now, you have already started. Your progress The speed is surprising." The young man stirred the jerboa meat. At this time, the jerboa meat already gave off a faint fragrance.

"How did you tell?" Zhang Yang was surprised.

"It's very simple. You can survive being chased by wolves for so long, which has proven your strength. You know, the wolves in the desert have adapted to the desert environment. They run very fast in the desert and have endurance. Youchang, even if I chased them for five days and five nights, I couldn't completely eliminate them, which shows their running ability." The young man smiled, and actually took out a small bottle from his waist, and poured some powder from the bottle On top of the jerboa meat, the roasted and yellowed jerboa meat immediately gave off a strange aroma.

"What is this?" Zhang Yang's index finger moved greatly due to the scent.

"Five-spice powder, specially prepared for barbecue, a must-have for home travel." The young man laughed.

"..." Zhang Yang was speechless. He could tell from this small detail that the young man was a person who was very particular about the quality of life. Otherwise, he would never bring a bottle of condiments with him in such an environment.

"Eat it, it's eight ripe, it's almost ready. It's too burnt and it won't taste good. We don't have much water. The meat of this kind of jerboa meat is still very tender." The young man picked a piece of jerboa meat with a dagger and handed it to Zhang Yang , he grabbed a piece with his hands and chewed it, as if he was not afraid of being burned at all.

"Thank you..." Zhang Yang was so hungry that he felt cold all over. After almost running all night, his stomach was already empty. "By the way, why did you help me when we first met?"

"Feel it!" The boy took a big bite of the meat and hummed happily.

"Feeling?" Zhang Yang asked suspiciously.

"Well, I feel that you are worthy of my action. I suspected that you might become a strong person, so I took action. As someone said to you, it is not easy for a strong person to appear. Therefore, in this circle, if you find If there are seedlings that will become strong men, they will protect them intentionally or unintentionally, for fear of dying..."

"Why are you afraid of dying young?" Zhang Yang was a little confused. This seemed to have nothing to do with others.

"It's very simple. If a country has more strong people than another country, then this country will naturally have the most weight in the world of strong people. It can even formulate some strong laws. Therefore, The emergence of a strong man in any country is a sensation. Whether it is national power or private power, he will be protected. Of course, hostile forces will also strangle him. No one wants his opponent to add new blood."

"That's it!" Zhang Yang finally understood that the birth of a strong man had affected the power of the country. No wonder the young man said last time that he was not under legal supervision.

Indeed, once you become a strong person, you can simply ignore the law.

In fact, the laws of the human world are made by the strong. The only difference is that they are just ordinary strong people. They are essentially different from the strong people they are talking about now. The strong person in the young man's mouth focuses more on Personal force.

"By the way, how do you determine your position in this desert? I think you seem to be very familiar with this desert."

Zhang Yang has never thought about this problem. You must know that Zhang Yang has countless memories and knowledge in his mind. He can be regarded as knowledgeable about astronomy and geography. However, it is simply impossible for a young man to accurately predict the location and find the woods in the desert. possible.

It would be okay if Zhang Yang could find a general direction through the constellations, but how to determine where there is water and woods would be too mysterious.

"Easy, this!" The boy took down the silver-white metal watch in his hand. It was a long watch with a large screen. The boy gently pressed a button, and a piece of information immediately appeared on the screen. An exquisite map with coordinates on it, and a white highlight on the watch.

"See, the position of this bright spot is our current position. If I aim the position at this place, the display will slowly analyze the terrain of this place, analyze the results, and then call up the general shape of this block. Of course, because the terrain of the desert changes greatly, this is not accurate. ***, I have been fooled several times. I mainly rely on my own analysis. For example, there are poplar trees here. Many years ago, there must have been Water source, then there is a great chance that there will be an underground river or an oasis nearby..."

"oh……"

Zhang Yang's face remained calm, but his heart was filled with confusion. Who is this young man?

The value of this watch can no longer be measured in terms of money. This is a desert, not a city. There is no satellite navigation system. Even if it is a navigation system, there will definitely be no geographical markings and analysis...

Obviously, there are countless secrets hidden behind this watch.

"This watch was given by a friend. Hey, it has many functions and can also make calls. It is said that there will be a signal in any corner of the world. Moreover, it is solar powered. However, for safety, I still brought a battery in case it fails. If someone is electrocuted and trapped in the desert, then things will be very serious..." The young man put on his watch proudly, with a childish look between his eyebrows. Zhang Yang found that although this young man was ruthless, in fact, he was still An eighteen-year-old boy.

"What a good thing!" Zhang Yang couldn't help but be a little envious. With this thing, he basically wouldn't get lost in the desert.

"When I get a chance, I'll ask that friend to get one for you." The young man chuckled.

"Okay!" Zhang Yang was overjoyed. Of course, Zhang Yang didn't know that this watch is a highly classified military secret. It's impossible for ordinary people to even look at it, let alone want it.

"By the way, where is your destination tomorrow?" the boy asked.

"In XX Village in KC County, it is said that there is a large cemetery there. We are going to pay homage to a person."

"What? Cemetery in XX Village, KC County?" The young man stood up abruptly, with a stern look on his face, as if he had become a different person.
