    Chapter 662 Desert ruins without night

    The damage to the Spirit was more serious than expected. Fortunately, the warehouse was well preserved, so there was no need to worry about insufficient materials during the repair process.  However, because there were so many areas that needed to be repaired, it took more time than expected.  For this reason, becoming familiar with the surrounding environment has become the first thing that Han Yu and others need to do now.

    Human eyesight is limited. After Han Yu flew into the air, he looked around and saw that there was nothing but sand. The radar of the Courage had malfunctioned again. At this time, Han Yu and others only knew that they were in a desert. As for this area,  Is there any human existence in the desert? Judging from the location of the Spirit, there were at least signs of human existence.

    This is an abandoned town, not very big in size.  Perhaps the most luxurious building in the entire town is the church that had a big hole knocked out of it by the Spirit.  Due to the attack of wind and sand, half of the church is covered with sand, and the remaining half should be located at the podium where the priest stands during worship.  A huge, decayed picture frame hangs alone on the wall. There must have been a huge portrait hanging here, but unfortunately it has changed now.

    I just briefly checked inside the church, because there was really nothing worth checking.  Staying here is not as comfortable as staying overnight in the Courage, so Han Yu and others also gave up the idea of ??staying here for one night.  After walking out of the church, I stood on the street where I could vaguely see the layout of the town. Looking around, I saw that the buildings here had basically been eroded by the wind and sand. Except for a few places where there were ruins, most of the buildings were just  A bit of foundation remains to suggest that a building once stood here.

    There is really nothing to see.  There is no need to worry about the presence of wild animals in this kind of place.  Because here, the most dangerous thing is the wind and sand.

    "Han Yu, Han Yu, come here quickly!" Just when Han Yu was about to look elsewhere, he heard Shi Bafang shouting loudly and waving vigorously on a broken wall in the distance.  Then Han Yu saw that the broken wall at Shi Bafang's feet had collapsed, and Shi Bafang's figure was covered by the sand and dust stirred up by the collapse of the broken wall.

    ……

    After dragging Shi Bafang out of the sand, before Han Yu could say anything to Shi Bafang, Shi Bafang suddenly jumped up and pulled Shi Bafang to run behind a broken wall.

    "What did you find?" Han Yu asked curiously.

    "A well."

    well?  Is there a well in a place like this?  Although Jing Hanyu had seen and used it before, even if there was a well in a place like this, it would have been buried by the wind and sand.

    "Is there any water?"  Han Yu asked again.

    "I threw stones into it, and it was a long time before I heard the sound of the stones falling into the water." Shi Bafang replied quickly.

    "There is the sound of water. Is there an underground river underneath this well, so it has not dried up under the erosion of sand?" Thinking of this, Han Yu felt a little happy.  Although there is a fresh water converter on the Spirit, who knows how long we will stay here, it is better to save what we can.

    Walk to the well discovered by Shi Bafang.  It's not much different from an ordinary well. The only difference is probably that the rope used to draw water from this well is much longer than other wells.  Of course, Han Yu didn't intend to use a rope that would fall apart at a touch.  Returning to the Courage to get a rope and a bucket, Han Yu planned to get a bucket of water to take a look first.  It is a good thing to find water, but whether the water is drinkable still needs to be tested.

    The bucket fell for a long time before it finally reached the bottom. Han Yu took the rope and shook it vigorously a few times, and then began to pull the bucket up.  The water in the bucket is very clear, without any impurities.  Han Yu first tested it with a water quality testing machine. After finding that there was no problem with the water, he took the ladle of water from Shi Bafang's hand, scooped it up, and took a sip.

    The water is very cool and has a slightly sweet taste.  It is a kind of enjoyment to drink such cool well water in a place exposed to the scorching sun.  Han Yu drank happily, and then handed the ladle of water to Shi Bafang so that he could have a taste.

    "This water tastes really good. Let's go Bafang and get a few more buckets, and try to let Field and the others have a taste." Han Yu said to Shi Bafang after he finished drinking the water.

    Field and others needed to repair the Courage under the scorching sun, which was very hard, but people like Han Yu and Shi Bafang were unable to help with the repairs.  Now that he heard that he could send some water to Field, Shi Bafang was very happy.

    The two of them did not stay at the well for too long. They placed the buckets they brought beside the well and walked towards the Courage.  But when the two came back, they found that the bucket placed by the well was missing.

    "Bafang, where did you put the bucket just now?" Han Yu asked Shi Bafang in a low voice.

    "I didn't touch the bucket. After you brought it up, I didn'tTouched.  "Shi Bafang replied in a low voice as well.

    "Shh~" Han Yu noticed something was wrong and signaled Shi Bafang to be quiet.  Han Yu was seen walking gently to the well.  There is a shallow water mark where the bucket was originally placed. Following this water mark, you can see a splash of water and two pairs of small footprints.

    The footprints are not big, like those of a child.  If the guess was correct, it was two children who worked together to carry the bucket away.  Shi Bafang watched in surprise as Han Yu opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Han Yu waving his hand.

    Han Yu was a little surprised by the discovery that children's footprints appeared in the desert ruins. At the same time, he also wanted to find out whether the person who carried away his bucket was a human or a ghost.

    Although there is water here, it doesn’t look like a suitable place for planting. If humans live here, what do they usually eat?  Humans cannot survive on just drinking water.

    Thinking of this, driven by curiosity, Han Yu and Shi Bafang followed the two pairs of footprints to a large house with only three remaining walls.

    The roof has long since disappeared, and everything in the room can be clearly seen through the wall with only the foundation left.  No one lives here.

    "Han Yu, is it a ghost?" Shi Bafang asked Han Yu in surprise.  Han Yu waved his hand when he heard this, signaling Shi Bafang not to speak.  Are there ghosts in this world?  Han Yu couldn't explain clearly.  Although some people shout that ghosts are just people scaring themselves, some things cannot be explained clearly by science.

    Because of time, the footprints on the ground have disappeared.  But this is no longer important to Han Yu, because Han Yu has discovered something unusual in this big house.  In the upper left corner of the big house, the sand looked slightly different from the surrounding sand, as if there had been signs of looseness. Although it was not obvious, it did not escape Han Yu's eyes.

    Asking Shi Bafang to stay outside to take care of him, Han Yu slowly walked to the upper left corner of the big house.  Getting closer, Han Yu could see the difference here clearly. Other places were filled with sand, but here there was a stone slab hidden under the sand.  Han Yu stood in front of the stone slab for a while, then suddenly kicked it away. A secret passage hidden under the stone slab was exposed in front of Han Yu.

    Standing outside the house, Shi Bafang looked at Han Yu in surprise. He didn't expect that there was such a hidden place in the house.  Han Yu stood at the entrance of the secret passage and first bent down to look inside. It was very dark in the secret passage and he couldn't see anything clearly.  Then Han Yu threw two fireballs inside. It didn't matter if he didn't throw them. If he did, something would happen.  As the firelight passed, two small figures swayed in front of Han Yu's eyes.

    ……

    Two children, covered in dust and with frightened expressions on their faces, stood in front of Han Yu. Next to them were buckets that they had taken without asking.

    The fact that human children can be found here is a very strange thing in itself.  Han Yu originally wanted to scare the two children with a straight face so that they would confess honestly.  But when he saw the older child, whose legs were shaking because of fear, protecting the younger child behind him, Han Yu changed his mind.

    "Where are your parents?" Han Yu asked the older child softly.

    It’s just that Han Yu’s kindness was obviously not conveyed to the two children.  The frightened expressions on the faces of the two children not only did not diminish due to Han Yu's attitude, but actually trembled even more.  Han Yu turned around and glanced at Shi Bafang in embarrassment, only to find that the boy Shi Bafang was missing.

    "This guy escaped in the middle of battle!" Han Yu cursed in his heart.

    Just when Han Yu was about to take the two children back to the Courage, Shi Bafang came back again, and Lin Ke came back with Shi Bafang.  Seeing Lin Ke, Han Yu felt relieved.  In terms of friendship with children, Lin Ke is more than ten times better than Han Yu.  It was a relief for Han Yu to hand over these two difficult children to Lin Ke.

    Seeing the two dirty children, Lin Ke showed a trace of sadness on his face. He walked quickly to the two children, squatted in front of them and said softly: "Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you."

    “Perhaps Lin Ke’s voice had an effect, and the two children finally got rid of their panic state.  Upon seeing this, Han Yu quickly said to Lin Ke: "Lin Ke, hurry up and ask them about their origins."

    As soon as they saw Han Yu talking, the two children started shaking again.  Lin Ke glared at Han Yu angrily, asking Han Yu to stay away from him first, and then said softly to the two children: "Don't be afraid, he won't hurt you. In fact, he has a good temper. If you don't believe me, you can touch him.  Him." As he spoke, Lin Ke waved to Han Yu, whose face turned dark.

    In order to find out the origins of these two children as soon as possible, Han Yu had no choice but to squat in front of the two children as Lin Ke said.  Turning a blind eye to the dirty little hands stretched out by the two children.  In order to show his harmlessness,Yu Yu also smiled at the two children.  As a result, the two children were so frightened that they retracted their hands at the same time.

    Upon seeing this, Lin Ke quickly comforted the two children and said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, he doesn't bite. Look, I'll touch it for you to see." Shi Bafang on the side was almost laughing to death, clutching his already painful stomach.  , said "I'll prepare food for them" and ran away.  Oh, I was laughing all the way to the Courage.

    "Lin Ke, don't be so angry. Didn't I just try something new with you? Weren't you very happy at the time?"  Han Yu said to Lin Ke with a wry smile.

    Lin Ke's face turned red when he heard this, and he spat in a low voice: "Shut up! Don't mention that thing again. I really don't understand, where did you learn those tricks?"

    "You want to know? Let's find time to study it another day?" Han Yu suggested to Lin Ke with a smile.

    "You still say that!" Lin Ke said angrily in embarrassment.

    "What are you afraid of? These two little guys don't understand." Han Yu said nonchalantly.

    Lin Ke couldn't stand the shameless Han Yu. He quickly turned away from Han Yu and asked the two confused children, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

    As soon as they heard about eating, the stomachs of the two children rang almost at the same time.  Lin Ke smiled slightly when he heard this, stretched out his hand and said to the two children: "Come with me, I will take you to eat delicious food."

    Maybe it was the temptation of food, or maybe it was Lin Ke’s kindness, but the two children timidly put their little hands on Lin Ke’s hand.

    Inside the Courage

    The food prepared by Shi Bafang had already been placed on the table. The aroma of the food made the two children's Adam's apples surge, their tongues couldn't help licking their lips, and their eyes wanted to turn into hands to grab the food.  It's just that the two children didn't dare to move because there was a person who scared them standing next to the food.

    "Han Yu, stay away from the dinner table, don't scare these two children." Lin Ke said to Han Yu when he saw this.

    Han Yu heard the words and replied: "Okay, but before eating, I suggest giving these two children a bath first. You see they are dirty, so if you let them eat like this, I'm afraid they will get a bad stomach."

    Lin Ke heard it right and said to the two children: "The uncle who fights monsters said that you are not allowed to eat without taking a bath. In order to eat, let's take a bath quickly, okay?"

    "Big monster? Come on, I'm here to make a guest appearance." Han Yu muttered softly, and in line with Lin Ke's words, he bared his teeth at the two children and said: "Go take a bath, or I will eat you."

    The threat of the big monster obviously exceeded the temptation of food. The two children obediently followed Lin Ke and Han Mengxin who came after hearing the news to take a bath.

    ……

    After the two children put on clean clothes and followed Lin Ke and Han Mengxin back to the dinner table, Han Yu, who acted as the big monster, carefully looked at the two children who seemed to be undergoing inspection, nodded and said: "Okay.  It’s time to eat.”

    Hearing the big monster’s agreement, the two children immediately rushed to the dinner table. The older child reached out and grabbed a piece of bread, broke it in half and handed it to the younger child.

    Han Yu frowned and looked at the smaller child holding the bread and chewing it, and complained to Lin Ke: "Lin Ke, you were led astray by this girl Mengxin, why did you put him in a skirt?"

    "What him? That's a girl. Since she's a girl, of course she has to wear a skirt. And I said, brother, what do you mean by being led astray by me? It sounds like Sister Ke is a good person." Han Mengxin on the side was dissatisfied.  shouted.

    "Huh?" Lin Ke glanced at Han Mengxin when he heard this.  Knowing that she said something wrong, Han Mengxin hurriedly hugged Lin Ke, shook her and said, "Oh, sister-in-law, don't be angry, I said something wrong. It's all my brother's fault. If he didn't lead me, I would have said something right."

    Han Yu, who was angry at Han Mengxin's words, pointed at Han Mengxin speechlessly and told Lin Ke: "You guys should keep an eye on these two children and don't let them eat too much. Judging from the way they eat, they must have been eating for a long time."  It’s too late to eat enough.”

    "Brother, I'm a doctor, I still know this common sense, don't worry." Han Mengxin said to Han Yu without waiting for Lin Ke to speak.  Han Yu nodded and said to Lin Ke and Han Mengxin: "Then I'll leave it to you to ask about the origins of these two children. I'm going to check the weather outside. The weather in this desert changes from time to time, so you have to pay attention at all times.  .”

    Throwing the two children to Lin Ke and Han Mengxin, Han Yu flew into the air, this time bringing a telescope.  Since there are children, there might be a place for people to live around.  Han Yu wanted to see if he could find a place where people could live, then the future lives of these two children would be settled.  It is impossible for Han Yu to take two children on an adventure. At best, it is for the sake of the children's future. At worst, it is for the sake of the children's future.But two children are a burden.  Just like playing a gangster, a gangster must have a good body. It is impossible for a gangster to hold an oxygen tube in his arms and an infusion bottle on his body. He must take some quick-acting drugs before playing a gangster.  That's not playing a gangster, but being a gangster.

    The result was a bit disappointing to Han Yu. Within the range that the telescope could see, Han Yu still didn't find any sand around except sand.

    After returning to the ground, Han Yu put away his telescope and prepared to return to the Courage, when he met Ning Ping returning from the periphery of the ruins of the town.  The two had divided their duties before. Han Yu was responsible for the inspection inside the ruins of the town, while Ning Ping was responsible for the inspection outside the ruins of the town.

    "You're back. Did you find anything?" Han Yu asked Ning Ping.

    Ning Ping shook his head when he heard this, "I didn't find it. How are you?"

    "Two children were discovered, and Lin Ke and Han Mengxin are being asked to take charge of questioning."

    Hearing what Han Yu said, Ning Ping said in disbelief: "Two children? Are you kidding?"

    "Do you look at me like I'm joking?"  Han Yu asked, pointing to himself.

    "HmmI can't tell." Ning Ping looked at Han Yu seriously and said.

    Han Yu rolled his eyes and said to Ning Ping angrily: "Facts speak louder than words. When you see those two children, you will know if I lied to you. By the way, Ning Ping, how about we make a bet?  ?”

    "What do you want to bet on?" Ning Ping asked casually.

    "Just bet on whether there are those two children."

    "What's the bet?" Ning Ping asked again.

    "Welljust bet on who will keep vigil tonight." Han Yu said after hearing this and thinking for a while.

    Ning Ping raised his head and glanced at the sun, and said, "Okay, let's play with you I said Han Yu, why doesn't the sun go down?"

    "Are you dazzled?" Han Yu replied casually.

    "No, I remember when I looked at the sun an hour ago, it seemed to be in that position."

    after an hour……

    "Hey~ It's really weird, the sun really hasn't moved." Han Yu looked at the sun above the horizon in confusion and said to himself.
