Chapter 6, The Elegance of the Accomplished
Ding Zeyi appears to be in his early thirties, and when he alters his appearance, he deliberately transforms his features into those of a tough man, making them much more angular and defined due to his personal preferences
There was no other way; Ding Ze could only try his best to appear calm and composed
Time has swiftly passed to the fourth day. The group of ten, after crossing the Peacock River, continued onward into the Black Desert, traveling for two days.
It is indeed not that easy
That is to say, when the sandstorm occurs, he must be located only a two to three minute journey away from that unknown ancient city ruin
This is akin to a situation where you are utterly powerless, and suddenly a person appears, placing two hundred pounds of gold before you, telling you that as long as you can carry it and run, all the gold will be yours
The fat man was even more confused, "What do you mean by '闻风'? Which country's language are you referring to?"
The sandstorm did not result in any casualties, and in a moment of crisis, Hu Bayi and his companions encountered the most magical spirit of the desert, a single-humped white camel. Following that white camel, Hu Bayi and his group narrowly escaped death and reached the ruins of an unknown ancient city to take refuge.
"Old Hu, Fatty, you both know about tomb raiders, right"
Today is the second day of entering the Black Desert
Now, he is referred to as Old Ding of hetushu.com, which is quite reasonable
The terror of a sandstorm, that life-and-death moment when one is about to be engulfed by the swirling yellow sands, must be witnessed by the viewers in the live broadcast
After all
Anliman stated, "The Black Desert is a punishment from Hu Da (the Almighty, Allah) for the greedy infidels, where countless cities and treasures are buried. However, no one can bring them out of the Black Desert; even if you take just one gold coin, you will lose your way in the Black Desert and be forever buried by the sand and wind, never to emerge again"
Agility +1, requires 5000 popularity points
At that time, he idly thought about what it would be like if he were to travel back in time, what would happen and so on
In the first two days of entering the desert, several young people, including the wealthy and beautiful Sherry Yang, were filled with excitement as it was their first time in the desert and they were witnessing such a magnificent sight. They occasionally broke into song and playfully chased each other, behaving as if they were on a vacation.
In this way, in two or three minutes, he believed that he could also climb over.

Ding Zeru was thinking, and his mind began to work.
Then can you? You cannot!
It turns out that he really cannot do much, at least not for the time being
In his mind, Ding Ze silently sorted through the plot and already had an idea of what to do next
Ding Ze smiled and shook his head, "Fatty, you don't understand this. Judging tomorrow's weather by just looking at the current sun is of no use."
Strength + 1, requires 5000 popularity points
The number of viewers in the live broadcast room has significantly increased due to the accelerated growth in the later stages. By the morning of the fourth day in the desert, it has already surpassed one thousand.
... ...
He had previously read quite a few similar stories, where characters traverse into narratives or film works they had once encountered, and then the protagonists, relying on their knowledge of the plot, effortlessly excel and achieve remarkable feats.
Ding Ze was indeed shocked by this magnificent sight, but unfortunately, he did not have a camera; otherwise... Never mind, even with a camera, it would be useless, as the lie had already been told, and Hu Bayi and the others all believed that he had been in several times. And the library.
In simple terms, it reflects the demeanor of a connoisseur who would say, 'What kind of beautiful scenery is this? I am already tired of it'
In the past few days, traversing through the desert, I have experienced that terrible feeling as if my entire being is constantly ablaze due to the wind, sand, and dryness. Along the way, I have also seen various kinds of skeletons, both animal and human.
Ding Ze lit a cigarette, sensing that Shirley Yang still seemed to be wary of him, so he chose not to approach her and instead sat down next to the already familiar Fatty.

Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi furrowed their brows upon hearing these words and began to ponder
What to watch?
Most importantly, in order to join this team and to become more familiar with Hu Bayi and Fatty, he claimed to be thirty-three years old
The popularity value has also accumulated to over 700
It seems that it is time to give these spectators a thrilling experience, to let them know how perilous this place is
The demeanor of the master continued to be displayed, and Ding Ze smiled, saying, "This is a skill passed down through generations in my family. In the face of wind, rain, and thunder, if one knows how to understand it, there are actually many hidden things within."
At this moment, Hu Bayi, who had just been speaking with Shirley Yang nearby, also approached and asked, "Wind, rain, thunder, and lightning?"
Well, this time this guy is going to act big, but this thing is not subject to verification, so it doesn't matter. You both have heard of the term 'to be frightened at the sound of the wind', right? 'To be frightened at the sound of the wind' can be understood in this way.

Seeing this, Ding Ze decided to take advantage of the situation and mention these two individuals, as it was certainly something that would excite them.
Looking at the clouds, the most important thing is, "If you are going to show off, do it thoroughly," Ding Ze said while reaching out to pose, "You must be aware of the situation."
Having made plans and calculated the time, after a simple lunch of dry rations, Sherry Yang and others, uncertain of what tomorrow would bring, were not in a hurry regarding time and did not rush to set off, intending to rest for a while.
At the same time, because he cannot guarantee that he will definitely survive that sandstorm, for the sake of his own life, he must make some adjustments to the timeline
Hu Bayi was born in 1950, while Fatty was born in 1951, making their ages quite similar.
"Fatty, we need to hurry up and move forward; it seems that the weather is about to change," Ding Ze said, pretending to be somewhat worried.
Ding Ze remembered that on the third day, which is tomorrow, if he did not intervene, Hu Bayi and his group would encounter a sandstorm not far from the ruins of Xiye City
... ...
The fat man heard this, looked up at the big sun in the sky, and it was evident that he was somewhat puzzled, "Old Ding, what nonsense are you talking about? It's a bright sunny day, changing weather?"
A storm is wind. What is currently blowing incessantly is also wind. So what kind of wind represents what kind of situation? If one knows how to distinguish, just think, wouldn't it be possible to foresee what situation will arise?
Ding Ze sat on the back of the camel, brought up the panel, and entered the live streaming mall
Ding Ze let out a silent sigh, his gaze falling upon several items in the shopping mall
We can be considered tomb raiders, can't we
In an instant, Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi both clearly reacted somewhat intensely
To be honest, Ding Ze has indeed discovered that he is quite skilled at pretending to be this way
Do you know
After all, if one only knows the plot but lacks physical fitness, psychological resilience, and overall capability, what use is it?
If it really doesn't work, then shorten it to one minute
It has been several days, and I have only earned over 700 popularity points; this is not acceptable
Clunk
Ding Ze had to further realize that personal experience and the descriptions found in novels are indeed very different
