Chapter 42 Inland Lakes in the Prairie
Jiang Cheng couldn't help asking: "Do you know what disasters have occurred in this world?"

However, Liang Weilun shook his head: "It's been too long. There have been faults in our civilization, and there are almost no records."

After a pause, he added: "According to the old man in the camp, there is a fragment of record that a long, long time ago, there was no Yin tide in this world, so we suspect that the original disaster was related to the Yin tide. Of course, this is just speculation without any evidence. .”

Ok.

Jiang Cheng nodded.

Soon, their car overtook the convoy ahead.

Jiang Cheng saw many adults and children in the convoy ahead, both men and women, old and young, with few women and most men.

Among them, there were at least [-] people with guns, and some even had heavy machine guns on the roof.

But that's all, there seems to be no more powerful thermal weapon.

After all, it is just a camp, and it is completely incomparable with the land sailing in the refuge.

Jiang Cheng roughly counted and felt that the number of people in this convoy was between 500 and 600 at most, so it could only be regarded as a small camp.

"Which camp's convoy is this?" He looked at Liang Weilun.

Liang Weilun hurried to the window of the driver's seat and asked loudly, "Which camp are you from?"

Jiang Cheng: "..."

You didn't even know the identity of the person, so you dare to take a ride? !

The driver hurriedly replied loudly: "My lord, we are the Jinfeng Merchant Group, not part of the camp."

"Golden Phoenix Merchant Group?" Liang Weilun was puzzled, and looked at Jiang Cheng: "Do you know the Merchant Group?"

Jiang Cheng shook his head.

Liang Weilun immediately leaned over again and asked, "What does your business group do?"

The driver replied respectfully: "In the past, we mainly did business between the camps, bartering and earning the price difference between the two places."

"What did you mean before? Do you still do it now?" Liang Weilun's eyes lit up.

The driver said: "It depends on the situation now, but we don't sell water. Others should be tradeable."

"Not trading water?"

"My lord, you also know the current situation. We all have to find ways to save money, and we can't trade even if we want to trade."

"That's true."

Liang Weilun shrugged at Jiang Cheng: "That's it."

"Da da da..." Suddenly, dense gunshots came from the front.

The two hurriedly looked up, and saw several evolutionary mantises hitting those spider cars, and the dense bullets hit them, splashing sparks on the exoskeleton of the evolutionary mantises.

However, the firepower was fierce, but those evolutionary praying mantises were just beaten into pits, and those who were unlucky were injured, and none of them died.

"Squat down, don't show your head." Jiang Cheng said to Tong Xiaorou and the others, while he stood on the right edge of the carriage with Tang Hengdao in his hand.

Liang Weilun also took out his own knife, spontaneously chose the left side, and said solemnly: "I guessed that this grassland will not go well, but I didn't expect to encounter this kind of evolutionary creature just after entering."

Suddenly, an evolutionary mantis rushed towards him, and with a flap of its wings, it crossed twenty meters. The speed was astonishing, and it was difficult for ordinary people to catch the traces.

Liang Weilun slashed out with a sharp knife, and with a loud "dang", one arm of the evolutionary mantis shattered, its head was shattered, and its body flew out. It entered the grass and never got up again.

At the same time, an evolved praying mantis also appeared on Jiang Cheng's side, rushing forward with a flap of its wings.

"Pfft!" "Heh..."

There was only a flash of the knife, and in the eyes of Tong Xiaorou and other ordinary people, Jiang Cheng's hand and the knife were only blurred for an instant.

But in Liang Weilun's eyes, he saw Jiang Cheng slashing three times like lightning, the head of the evolved mantis flew out, and the two arms of the knife fell down, and happened to land in the carriage.

Liang Weilun on the left narrowed his eyes and took a deep look here.

Although Jiang Cheng's level is not as high as his, and his strength is not as strong as his, but the speed of the knife just now made him feel a little threatened.

"Brother Jiang has great sword skills!" Liang Weilun exclaimed.

"I'm laughing." Jiang Cheng smiled, put the two saber arms into the space backpack, and then continued to look at the other evolved praying mantises.

The praying mantises repelled by the convoy in front wanted to continue to pounce on the last car, but after seeing them easily kill two companions, the rest of the evolved mantises stopped in fear and did not continue to attack.

Liang Weilun said in a deep voice: "These things may already have wisdom, but they retreated like this and did not continue to die."

Jiang Cheng nodded slightly, he had already seen the wisdom of the evolution mantis.

Whether it is cooperating with each other or peeping secretly to find opportunities, it is a manifestation of wisdom.

On the next road, Jiang Cheng and the others took advantage because the convoy ahead opened the way.

Although there are some evolved creatures that will attack them, it's just a test. As long as one or two are killed, the rest of the evolved creatures will retreat.

Among these evolutionary creatures, mantises are the most evolved, and almost all of them are insects. They seem to have evolved drought tolerance and are highly adaptable to arid environments, and they have not migrated with large groups.

These creatures are very cautious. Although the attacks along the way seem fierce, they will retreat immediately as soon as there are casualties, and they are not reckless at all.

But it also made things easier for the team.

Liang Weilun analyzed: "These evolved insects should also use this method to preserve water in their bodies, and they don't want to exercise too much, otherwise it will cause water loss."

Jiang Cheng nodded in agreement: "This should be the reason."

Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain how such a ferocious evolutionary insect would be so timid.

But Jiang Cheng sensed it, and frowned slightly. He didn't know if it was because he was being blown by the strong wind in the car, or what, he felt that the temperature seemed to be dropping.

"What month is it now?" He looked at Liang Weilun.

Liang Weilun thought for a while, and said: "September. The hottest season is about to pass, and the heat preservation capacity of the grassland should drop a lot. It is estimated that it will get colder and colder in the future. I hope it will rain after it cools down."

September……

Jiang Cheng was silent.

It needs water vapor to rain.

There is so little water vapor in the air now that it might be difficult for it to rain.

The speed of the spider car is very fast, even if it can't match the speed of the wheeled car running on the road in the previous life, it is much faster than the walking speed of a person.

In one day, they directly crossed half of the prairie and crossed two to three hundred kilometers.

Finally, towards evening, the convoy stopped before a camp.

What surprised Jiang Cheng and others was that there were actually many wilderness people staying here.

They can see from the carriage that there is a huge depression ahead, like a tiankeng that appeared on the prairie.

Cheers came from the convoy ahead, and someone shouted: "The water in Longxi Lake has not completely dried up!"

"Great, we are saved!"

"There must be water here..."

The cheers continued.

"There's still water here?!"

"Looking at the terrain in front, there should have been a very large inland lake here. It seems that the water in this lake has not completely dried up!"

Both Jiang Cheng and Liang Weilun lifted their spirits, looked at each other, and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
