They had been walking in the desert for some time. The long days and short nights in the desert and the high temperature had really made everyone suffer a lot. For men who were used to marching and fighting, this was nothing at all. It was just a hardship for those two delicate beauties.
Heracles finally found a stone hill when the sun was only a little bright, so Captain Ares ordered the horses to set up camp.
After setting up two tents of different sizes and offering sacrifices to everyone's internal organs, everyone dragged their tired bodies into the tent to sleep. Outside the tent, the men took turns to keep watch.
The night covered by dark clouds was quiet and dark. The night in the desert was always whimpering, full of coldness and mystery.
The people in the tent were sleeping quietly, and the bonfire outside the tent was humming. In the heavy night, a big flower snake with a tongue hissing leisurely crawled towards the guards and stopped under a horse in front of the carriage. Immediately after, the horse neighed loudly and jumped wildly, dragging the other horses and carriages into the depths of the forest. When it ran to the rock wall, it suddenly turned and the carriage crashed into the rock wall with a bang.
The guards who were deep in their sleep were awakened by this earth-shattering sound. All of them rushed out of their tents. When everyone saw clearly, they realized that the horses seemed to have run away in fear.
The warriors saw that the carriage had run away and ran after it one by one. Heracles was the first to run the fastest. In just two seconds, he caught up with the horse and pulled the horse's reins.
He kept stroking it while muttering something in the horse's ear. Finally, the horse gradually calmed down.
Heracles led the carriage to the bonfire and squatted down to carefully check the horse's wounds. Everyone gathered around.
"What happened to it?" Ayis and the others asked anxiously. Ares also squatted down to check if there was anything wrong with the horse.
"It's been bitten by a viper, here.”Heracles frowned and pointed at the horse's hind legs with a serious expression.
Everyone looked in the direction Heracles was pointing. There were two teeth marks on the back of the horse's leg. The blood was very deep and black.
"I was really bitten by a poisonous snake. The poisonous snakes in the desert are extremely poisonous! He'll definitely die." Ares had encountered such a situation when he was on the battlefield. People who were poisoned could not be cured, let alone a horse.
"Then what should we do? Quickly save it!" Ayis frowned and looked a little anxious. Mortila nodded vigorously.
"Do you want me to help it suck it out?”Fatty was dumbfounded but he was very serious. Ares looked like he was about to faint.
"Wow! What kind of stupid idea is this! Is your life so cheap?" Mortira scolded angrily.
The sharpshooter, Skinny Warrior, also bumped into Fatty and shook his head at him. Fatty was just like that. He was simple-minded and well-developed, but he was a cute and loyal warrior.
Heracles calmly took out a small white bottle from his pocket and poured out a small black pill.""Mortira, get me a cup…"
Mortira quickly returned with a cup and handed it to Heracles.
Heracles dissolved the pill in water and fed it to the horse. Apollo had given him the pill when he descended to the mortal world. This small poison was not difficult for Apollo, who was also the God of Medicine. The antidote pill he developed could cure hundreds of poisons.
Not long after the horse took the antidote pill, the blood flowing out of the wound on the horse's leg gradually turned from black to red. Heracles checked the horse's wound again and finally confirmed: "It's fine now."
Everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although it was only a horse, it was a very important means of travel in the desert. Without it, it would be difficult to walk out of the desert on its own feet.
Everyone was glad that another unexpected situation had passed without any danger. Captain Ares told the warriors to return to their tents to sleep, leaving Heracles to keep watch.
Ayis, who kept looking back as she walked, cast an admiring look at Heracles. She was proud of Heracles 'calm and omnipotent ability.
Ares was filled with admiration and curiosity. He looked at Heracles suspiciously and thought to himself,"This person is not simple…"
The people who returned to the tent were ready to go back to sleep. They did not know that after the horses ran around and bumped into the carriage, the water storage tank at the bottom of the carriage had broken. Water was leaking out bit by bit. A disaster was about to happen.
。。。。。。Time Dividing Line…
A night passed, and the sun that had disappeared in the west jumped out from the east too early, emitting a beautiful red glow. The days in the desert were longer than the nights, and the sun went out early and returned late every day. It was extremely diligent.
Someone in the men's tent was drooling and dreaming! (In the dark, amorous temple of Aphrodite, a burning, lively, and fragrant erotic painting was displayed. Pairs of naked men and women were crazily making love, squirming, moaning, and growling. A sexy girl with blurred eyes noticed the man who had suddenly walked in. She slowly approached him, so close that he could feel her breathing. She wrapped her arms around his neck elegantly, closed her eyes, and pouted her pink and sexy lips, slowly approaching the man's lips.）
"Wake up-Skinny, get-up-now! If you don't get up, I'll kick your butt!”As Fatty spoke, he pinched the thin sharpshooter's pouting mouth with one hand and pinched his nose with the other, smiling sinisterly.
The thin man suddenly woke up. He sat up and opened his eyes." Beauty, don't go..." The thin man's messy curly hair covered his disappointed eyes. When he gradually regained consciousness, he realized that everything was just a dream." It's all your fault. I haven't even tasted it!"”The thin man was filled with anger when he thought of the "fatty meat" that was about to fly out of his mouth. He glared at the fatty who had woken him up.
"What is it? Did you dream of something delicious? That's great. I really envy you. I also want to eat drumsticks in my dreams! No, since it was a dream, then a whole chicken would do, hehe! Hehe!" After saying that, Fatty swallowed the saliva that kept flowing out and looked at the thin man with envy.
The thin man sighed speechlessly. He looked at the sky outside the tent and realized that it was already bright. He was so scared that he quickly got up and packed his quilt and belongings. He said to the fat man,"I like to eat too, but I prefer to eat the girls in the temple, hehe!……”Skinny packed his luggage and left the tent.
The innocent fatty was confused by these words."Can girls eat it too? No way! You eat the human too." Fatty was so shocked that he chased after the thin man who had already left the tent.
Outside the tent, all the people by the carriage were looking at the wet sand with worried faces. The thin man and the fat man who had just walked out of the tent saw everyone's strange expressions and asked in confusion,"What happened? Look at everyone's faces-"
"The horse must have broken the water tank last night. Now the water is all gone. This is bad. We're in the middle of nowhere. There's almost no water source in the huge desert. We have to run in the desert for at least three days! What should we do?" Mortira sounded very sorrowful.
Ayis was also at a loss and worried. For the first time, she felt a trace of despair. She looked up at the calm Heracles and asked with a hopeful look what to do next. Heracles calmly smiled at Ayis, shook his head, and then nodded again, indicating that she did not have to worry. Everything would be fine. The magical tacit understanding between them could no longer be expressed in words.
Ares stood out as the captain and encouraged everyone,"Everyone, don't be discouraged. We'll cross the bridge when we come to it. There are so many of us, we'll definitely be able to think of a way. Let's continue moving forward and look for plants as we go. Collecting some dew can solve our urgent needs.”Ares was indeed the leader of the Babylonian guards. His rich experience in the wilderness gave everyone confidence.
" It seems that this is the only way…" Fatty said helplessly with a bitter face and a sigh.
The thin man raised his hand and patted Fatty's shoulder, comforting and encouraging him.
In fact, they had not seen any plants along the way. However, this was the only way. Ares's experience in military operations played a crucial role in this critical moment. Everyone packed their luggage and bravely walked towards the unknown fate of the desert.
