Chapter 32: Sand Mirage
Willow Leaf is so happy on the horse, whether it was in the past or now, riding a horse is his favorite thing, and the horses in this world are all excellent, riding on a horse is neither bumpy nor painful, you must know that riding a horse is a very hurtful thing. The three of them chatted happily on the horse, and Liu Yeshao even took out two jugs of wine and drank happily on horseback.
In the old days, he only did two things on horseback, running for his life or chasing and killing, and there had never been such a leisure.
The flat avenue seems to lead to the sky, there is no head in sight, the hills that are faintly visible in the distance are still faintly visible, recalling the way from Lindu City, he counted the time and distance, if this is the desert, then the distance he has now walked is a bit like walking west from Tianjin to Yinchuan, riding horses most of the time, walking a little time, and a little trimming in the city. Calculating, I can't help but feel that the Great Xia Empire doesn't seem to be big, if the Great Xia Empire is a super large country, then this planet should be smaller than the earth.
At least compared to China's territory, the Great Xia Empire is probably only 70% the size of China.
Liu Yeshao didn't think much about it, he wanted to live his current life more than worrying about so many messy and meaningless things. Lin Hebian and Liu Yeshao sat in the same place, he was very excited, after all, this was his first time riding a horse, and Liu Yeshao patiently taught him the art of riding a horse, it was not difficult to ride a horse, and there was time along the way, and the supply of horses was also stored a lot in the previous market town, when Liu Yeshao took out the horse grass from the bag, Gan Xuanning's eyes were straight.
Looking at Willow Leaf Tip is like looking at a real jingle cat, of course, he doesn't know about jingle cats.
"Brother Liu, why do you say that the horse bandit village has not come yet?" The three of them ran away for a day, Gan Xuanning expressed his doubts, in the original calculation, even if the horse bandit village did not set off immediately to seek revenge, it should have arrived a long time ago, but there was no sound for a long time, Gan Xuanning felt a little strange.
"Aren't you afraid of the prestige of the Qian family in Hewan City? Brother Liu, you are really bold, you want to be known by the Qian family like this, but you have a grudge, and the Qian family is notoriously cautious. Along the way, Gan Xuanning praised the clever plan of the willow leaf tops, and Lin Hebian also applauded when he heard it, but he was still nervous in his heart, after all, it was the unattainable Qian family, and on the dock, that was the master of the same.
"The soldiers are coming, the water is coming to Tutun! Can you understand this?" Liu Yeshao sat comfortably behind Lin Hebian at this time, the horse is a good horse, and Lin Hebian is very fast.
The three of them talked and laughed, the horses were fast and slow, and from time to time they also competed in horse races, so happy.
It was nearly dusk, Liu Yeshao looked up and looked forward, only to see another slope, and couldn't help but think of the scene when he was intercepted by the horse bandits after going uphill before, "You say, will the horse bandit village wait for us in front?"
"Brother Liu, don't you say it, the soldiers will block, the water will come to Tutun, let's go and see. Lin Hebian turned his head and said to Liu Yeshao, in fact, the team is most afraid of death is Lin Hebian, but the least afraid is also Lin Hebian, when he fought with those horse bandits before, he only felt relaxed and casually overturned a group of people, and the sword was cut down like cutting into the air, only to feel that his strength exploded many times, and even felt that it was a waste to cut them with this strength.
The two horses slowed down and slowly leaned towards the hillside, and when they walked uphill, the willow leaf suddenly felt a little strange, why did the uphill walk the same as the peaceful road?
The other two still talked and laughed, and didn't feel anything wrong at all, Liu Yeshao shook his head, and found that he was not drunk, so he hurriedly said: "Don't you think this uphill slope, there is no slope?" As they were talking, the slope was almost finished, and Gan Xuanning and Lin Hebian felt that something was wrong when they heard this.
"I thought I had drunk too much, and it seemed a little strange to go uphill. Gan Xuanning looked at Liu Yeshao and said.
The three of them walked to the hillside, looked forward, and were greeted by the yellow sand flying, the wind was so strong that people couldn't open their eyes, the sand slapped their faces wildly, the three of them were shocked inexplicably, and they all looked back, something more terrible happened, the road when they came was gone, and it became a yellow sand sky, how can there be any Gobi scenery at this moment, the sunset in the west, the whole world seems to have changed, and the three of them are actually in the wild wind desert at the moment I don't know where!
......
The horse bandit village that set off non-stop during the day chased and killed the army, plundered several nameless caravans along the way, and then hurriedly saw the location of the willow leaf tree, Zheng Da saw the three people riding familiar horses, and immediately shouted excitedly, gave the horse butt a whip, and then took the lead in the charge, seeing that the saber was about to pestle the back of the willow leaf tip, but the three people disappeared in front like a mirage, so startled that he hurriedly stopped the horse, looked at the front in a daze, and a cold sweat from the neck to the tail vertebrae.
"Big ...... Big boss, this?" The second master of the horse bandit village who followed was also surprised, and seemed to be unable to understand this kind of thing, the more you go in the no-man's land, the more likely it is to appear mirage, but this scene just now is obviously not a mirage!
"Retreat, it's a random teleportation formation in the Wild Wind Desert, I don't know why I came here, it stands to reason that this place is still some distance from the Wild Wind Desert, it seems that the people in Zhenjing Mountain are not as good as a year, don't talk about this matter, don't make a noise, we should suffer a dumb loss, as for the Qian family in Hewan City, I have the opportunity to clean them up again, and tell the brothers that in the future, if it is found out to be the Qian family's caravan, 50% more money will be charged on this road to buy the road. ”
The horse bandit village is not a big or small village, the village also has a history of more than 100 years, the surname Zheng can be a big master here for generations, naturally he is also extraordinary, and his strength is also very tough, but at this moment, his face is dignified, and the second master behind him looks at the seriousness that he has never had, and he only feels that things are not simple, I am afraid that the development of things has touched the limit of his knowledge, so he also changed his expression, and the serious neat horse team returned the same way.
The three of them were dizzy in the wind and sand at this time, unable to find the direction, there was no sun, the night was not dark, and the rising stars and the moon half-hung at the end, but the huge wind and sand shrouded the three of them, for a while they didn't know where they were, when it was, Liu Yeshao couldn't find the north at all, this strange trip again and again, first it was the barren rocky mountains that needed to go out of the week, and the result was taken out by the dolphin treasure in one night, and at this time there were still a few days left in the no-man's land to catch up, and inexplicably also arrived in the desert。
It's just that this desert is so big, and the cold ones have come here, and who knows where to go?
"I know, this is wrong, such a big uphill slope seems to have suddenly arrived in front of our eyes, Ning Shao, do you know what the situation is?" Liu Yeshao's mouth was a mouthful of sand, at this time he was confused, and there were a few conjectures in his heart, what kind of illusion formation, what kind of chaotic space node and so on, but this put it on himself, it still felt like a supernatural event.
"Brother Liu, I don't know, but what I know for sure is that we are in the Wild Wind Desert!" Gan Xuanning's tone was full of excitement, although the wind and sand were so big, he couldn't even open his eyes, Liu Yejiao was okay, he took out his phantom sword and held it in front of him, the invisible but actual sword just blocked the wind and sand, which could make him open his eyes, but when he opened his eyes, he found that the whole world was extremely yellow sand, the horses had long since disappeared, and Gan Xuanning beside him could only vaguely see a figure.
"Can you see me by the Lin River?" Liu Yeshao roared in front of him, but no one replied, "Oh no! we have a sword talisman to find the direction, but he doesn't!" Liu Yeshao's heart was cold, and he turned his head and shouted to the side, but this time he turned his head, and the figure of Gan Xuanning next to him disappeared without a trace.
This feeling of being isolated and alone was so familiar, and he looked at the sword in front of him, looking at the yellow sand that was exactly the same in all directions, and then he understood what it meant that the so-called wild wind desert could not be entered. Liu Yeshao just wants to scold people at the moment, who said that this is also a desert? This is clearly a sea of sand!
There was sand between the breaths, Liu Yeshao hurriedly pulled up the good high collar, covered his mouth and nose, the phantom sword was in front of him, and he couldn't stop for a moment, he first walked around and made sure that there were no other two figures, and then stayed in place for a second, wishing them good luck, and then took out the sword gate sword talisman that had been carried for a long time, and gave some source qi to enter, hoping that it could have some effect.
Unfortunately, the sword talisman didn't react at all.
Liu Yeshao shook his head, as if he had expected this, he half-bent over, holding the phantom sword, and walked forward step by step, his eyes were very vigilant, and his ears were pricked up to listen carefully, for fear that the source beast in the desert would suddenly attack, but in such yellow sand, he couldn't see too far when he opened his eyes, and his ears were full of the howl of wind and sand, how could he tell where the source beast would come out?
From the three of them up the hillside, after turning back, they were delayed by the ancient formation of the Wild Wind Desert to different places, and the only thing that was the same was that all three of them were teleported to the core of the desert. If Zhenjing Mountain is an oasis in the desert, then this core area is the most terrible place of death, a truly invisible, insensory area that cannot be perceived.
Lin River's luck is relatively good, and he was the first to be teleported away from Liu Yejiao, he didn't feel the process of teleportation at all, as if he had arrived in another place in the blink of an eye, it was wonderful, the area he was in at the moment was the periphery of the core area, and the transformation that the magical blood brought to him, even in this environment, he could actually open his eyes and look in all directions, none of the flying sand could drill into the corners of his eyes, and Liu Yeshao, he was also looking for two partners, and after no result, he also embarked on his own journey, since everyone's destination is there, then go to the end of the gathering。
Gan Xuanning's teleportation point was a little weird, half of his leg was deep in the sand at the moment, and it was difficult to even walk, so he took out the sword talisman and gave some source qi to enter, the sword talisman was full of light, Gan Xuanning was wondering if this sword talisman could really have such a big light?
But I didn't have time to ask why, I found that every step I took, the sinking part was a little more, seeing my body sinking deeper and deeper in the quicksand, the sand under my feet rolled like flowing water, and almost couldn't see the bottom, I struggled to walk for several hours, but I couldn't get out of the range of the quicksand, the light of the sword talisman was like a bright light, but the moment the sand began to imprison his steps, his heart suddenly became cold, first regretful, regretful that he could not be the Xinggan family, and then depressed, frustrated that he was going to die young, and finally repented, confessed to his father that he couldn't try to survive, and saw that he was buried by the yellow sandHe closed his eyes, and his consciousness faded away.
