1297 Fish in the Lake

The oasis itself was not that big. The lake was even smaller. Its area was equivalent to half a standard playground, give or take. However, the depth of the lake was somewhat unclear, and it would take some time for Sihwa to find out. 

Zhang Zian scooped water from the lake, filtered it, and added disinfecting pills before capping the bottles. He then threw all unnecessary items out of the car. Even the roof rack was removed. Since there were no tents or mats, he might as well do away with it. 

After the problem of water was solved, what remained was the fuel problem. There was no solution. He could merely drive forward regardless of what happened. With this in mind, he decided it was best to travel light and simple.

When the next desert traveler accidentally arrived at this oasis, they would find a pile of rubbish beside the palm trees by the lake. He wondered how that would feel.
