My Waste Husband -
Chapter 859
Chapter 859
At night, the wind was strong, and the weather was cold. When breathing, it was obvious to see one's breath.
The fire outside the tent had gradually died out.
In the silent night sky of the desert, Alvin lay above the dense sand, his whole body trembling, letting the cold wind blow on his body.
"My lord, they've gone too far." In a tent not far away, a middle-aged man looked at the place where Alvin was and said slowly, "This young man is on the verge of breaking down."
"He should break down." Henry also looked at Alvin. "He's too weak. After giving him some confidence, he needs to face a stronger blow. Blessing Security and the others haven't done enough."
"My lord, do you really want to train him to be your spokesperson? With his character..."
"Although he acts cowardly, he's the most tenacious one I've ever seen. Remember, if everything goes well, he'll be your boss in the future. He's a genius in a certain field, and his thinking is even more extreme than mine." Henry looked at Alvin, who was trying to get up and trembling towards the tent. "Give him some medicine, or he might not be able to hold on."
"Understood." The middle-aged man nodded. "Sir, then I'll go down first."
"Okay."
Henry looked at the night sky. The sky here was extraordinarily clear and he could see stars. Henry could not remember how long he had not seen such a scene. When he was very young, his mother would take him to sit in the wooden pavilion of the welfare home and count the stars in the sky.
"This damned world. It always forces others to do something that they are unwilling to do."
The next morning, Alvin, who was sleeping, was waken up by a loud noise. He got out of his sleeping bag and found that after a nap, his body was not as painful as it was last night.
When he walked out of the tent, he found that all the troops had been assembled.
"You're awake? Let's go." Henry stood outside Alvin's tent. "We're going to the desert today. Before entering the desert, I have something to tell you."
Henry said and threw a water bottle to Alvin.
"When your supplies are sufficient, try your best to keep your water bottle full. Also, when you want to drink water, don't swallow it directly. The best way is to use small sips of water so that the water can nourish your lips and throat as much as possible. In the desert, water is everything, understand?"
Alvin took the jug and nodded.
"Okay, before you go, think about how your girlfriend treated you that day, think about the grievances you suffered in the past two days. If you can conquer this desert, you will find that there is a difference between the past and the present you." Henry threw a bag of snacks to Alvin. "You should distribute the things in this bag yourself. What I want to tell you is that no one knows how long this trip to the desert will last. The supplies Delsean brought look a lot, but he couldn't bring much into the dessert. Hundreds of people will be exhausted, and they would be able to hold on for seven days. After seven days, it will depend on their own ability to survive."
Alvin silently put away the bag of snacks Henry gave him and didn't even look at it. It seemed that he would not use this bag of food in a short time.
After a short distribution of a few hundred people, they began to march towards the Loulan Ancient City.
In this season, the temperature of the desert was extremely strange. Generally speaking, tourists wouldn't come here. The entire ruins of the ancient city of the Loulan Kingdom was a place of desolation.
As they walked in front of the ruins of the ancient Loulan Kingdom, a sense of vicissitude swept over them. It was the dust of history that had been there for 10,000 years.
A man in his fifties, holding a pair of presbyopic glasses, and some detection instruments, walked in the middle of the team with Delsean, and kept observing. This man was the other person whom Delsean entrusted Henry to protect, Professor Gu.
The guards of Flourishing Security led the way.
The procession passed through the former site of Loulan Ancient City and did not stop. Everyone knew that target of this mission was certainly not on the surface of Loulan Ruins.
Behind the Loulan Ruins, there were too many secrets waiting to be explored.
Collier Security's people were all in the middle of the line, and people from the other five companies kept rolling their eyes at them. However, no one seemed to care about such a contemptuous look on the security guards' faces.
Henry glanced at the place where Delsean was from time to time. He noticed that Delsean was holding a map in his hand. He followed the map and searched for the direction.
The process of exploration was extremely boring, especially when they did not find anything. That kind of feeling was almost driving them crazy.
As the members of the exploration team, Flourishing Security was busy with the work and consumed a lot of physical strength. Almost every half hour, everyone had to stop and have a rest.
On the contrary, at this time, Collier Security, who had been despised, became the most relaxed group. Even though Blessing Security and Director Chen had been secretly deducting their supplies, Henry and his people were even more comfortable than Delsean.
It was clear to Delsean that their supplies had been deducted, so he could only show an apologetic look to Henry.
After all, Collier Security's existence was very special. Delsean needed to ensure the balance of the whole team. If he stood up and spoke for them at this time, it was likely to cause dissatisfaction with others, and then the mission would be more troublesome.
The first day of exploration passed quickly. They walked out of the old Loulan Land for more than ten kilometres and completely entered the desert, filled with yellow sand. When they first saw yellow sand, they were still interested in it and sighed at the vastness of the world. But now, at a glance, they even felt that their life had lost hope.
At night, the cold wind was howling. Everyone put on their warming cloaks and started the fire.
Collier Security's tent was still eating porridge and was surrounded by other teams eating meat and fish. Alvin started to eat and was the first to enter the tent after finishing his meal.
The night passed.
During the early dawn of the next day, Delsean began to organize a team and set off.
Flourishing Security's people were exploring the road in front of them, using the walkie-talkies to communicate.
It was almost noon, and when everyone was preparing for lunch, a noise suddenly came from the walkie-talkie.
"Something's wrong, come here quickly!"
Hearing the voice from the walkie-talkie, the security companies, who had put the pot on the ground, quickly packed up their things and strode to the place where Flourishing Security was located.
The distance between them was not far, only more than 500 metres. Although it was difficult to move forward in the yellow sand, everyone was a martial arts practitioner, so they arrived in almost three minutes.
When they arrived, they saw that the people of Flourishing Security were confronted by thirteen people. All thirteen people were riding on high horses, with their faces covered. Each of them was carrying a hunting rifle on the back.
