Chapter 51: The Vanishing Ruan Jiu

These black bugs move very fast, and they are covered in black water wherever they go. Just looking at it from a distance gives one a sense of endless hopelessness.

Sun Wukong asked Sha Seng to take his master to run forward first, followed by Ruan Jiu and Zhu Bajie. As for himself, he chose to block the swarm and try to buy more time for everyone.

In order to stop the swarm, Sun Wukong unleashed the true fire of Samadhi. The blazing flames were fan-shaped, forming a flame isolation zone more than ten meters long on the yellow sand.

The true fire of samadhi is not ordinary fire, but the essence, qi, and spirit are refined into samadhi, and when they are cultivated, they are separated from the essence.

Mortal beings avoid fire and water, but these black insect swarms don't seem to be afraid of fire. Still rushing forward without slowing down.

The first swarms rushed into the flames, and in an instant they were burned into a pile of powder by the flames. However, there are too many swarms, and these guys are like death squads, completely indifferent to the burning of flames, and the situation is extremely terrifying.

Even Sun Wukong couldn't help but be shocked by the scene in front of him. Secretly these insects are really not afraid of death at all, so they rush into the fire without any hesitation.

Although the pillar of fire temporarily blocked the attack of the insect swarm, it soon dawned on Sun Wukong that something was wrong.

It turned out that the insect swarm saw that it could not pass ahead, so they all changed their trajectory and went directly around both sides of the pillar of fire. In this way, the flame interception becomes a complete ornament.

"Oops!"

Sun Wukong hurriedly summoned the golden hoop stick and smashed it towards the swarm.

"Boom!"

Hearing a loud noise, the entire sand was suddenly smashed out of a deep pit with a diameter of more than ten meters. Countless insects scattered in all directions, while the insects that were not attacked bypassed both sides of Sun Wukong at a faster speed, and chased directly towards the Tang monks not far away.

Sun Wukong scolded secretly, and had to put the golden hoop stick away again.

Due to the sheer number of biters, an attack like his would not only have no effect, but would scatter them. This makes it more difficult to intercept them.

On the other side, Tang Seng, who had been running at the front, was worried that Sun Wukong would be in danger, so he wanted to look back at the situation behind him. As a result, as soon as he turned his head, he suddenly felt his body sinking. In the next second, the whole person rolled down with the white dragon horse under him.

It turned out that there was a huge slope in front of them, and the slope of this sandy slope was at least fifty degrees or more. In addition, everyone is running very fast, and it is basically impossible to stop when they find out.

As Tang Seng and Bailongma slid down the slope, Sha Seng and Zhu Bajie, who followed closely behind, also slid down. Originally, Ruan Jiu would also roll down the sand slope with him, but at the last moment, he was pushed up by Zhu Bajie, which didn't let her slide down the sand slope.

"Master, Senior Brother!"

Seeing the other three rolling down the sand slope, Ruan Jiu was extremely anxious. So he didn't care about his own safety, and ran straight down the sand slope.

Fortunately, the slope of the sand slope is quite large, because the sand is soft and mostly fine. A few people rolled all the way down, except for some nausea and dizziness, there was nothing else to do.

"Master!"

Ruan Jiu ran wildly all the way, and after Tang Seng fell, he hurriedly reached out and pulled him up from the sand. Not far from the two, Sha Seng and Zhu Bajie buried their entire heads in the sand.

Ruan Jiu was worried that they would be suffocated, so he wanted to go over and pull the two out of the sand.

However, as soon as he took two steps, his feet suddenly sank. Immediately afterwards, Ruan Jiu's whole person directly sank into the sand.

"Little Jiu!"

Seeing this, Tang Seng hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab her, but unfortunately his speed was still a step slower. In the end, he could only watch Ruan Jiu drown in the golden sand.

What's even more strange is that when Tang Seng came to the sandy land where Ruan Jiu had sunk, the originally sunken ground was restored to its original state. No matter how hard he pressed with his feet, nothing changed from the ground to the ground.

"Master, what are you doing here?"

Zhu Bajie, who pulled his head out of the sand, just shook off the sand on his head, and saw Tang Seng stepping on the ground with his feet, so he asked curiously.

Tang Seng looked anxious, so he told Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng what had just happened.

"What?"

When Zhu Bajie heard that Ruan Jiu had sunk to the sand, his face suddenly changed. didn't wait for Tang Seng to order, just lay on the ground and picked up the yellow sand with his hands. The sand monk on the side also joined the excavation team. At this time, the three of them had long forgotten the threat of the swarm behind them.

"Master!"

At this moment, suddenly a familiar shout came from overhead. Everyone looked up and found that it was Sun Wukong who had returned.

In order to catch up with the swarm team, Sun Wukong directly summoned his old friend somersault cloud. Although the speed of the swarm was very fast, it was still much slower in the face of the somersault cloud.

Jumping down from the somersault cloud, Sun Wukong looked at everyone with a puzzled expression.

"Master, what are you doing here?" asked Sun Wukong.

As soon as he saw Sun Wukong coming back, except for Sha Seng, he was still picking up the yellow sand on the ground with his hands. The other two walked quickly to Sun Wukong.

So, Zhu Bajie simply told Sun Wukong what happened before. The latter's face also changed suddenly after hearing this.

"Can you dig it out?" asked Sun Wukong, pointing to the depression that had been dug in the ground for about half a foot.

Sha Seng wiped the sweat from his forehead, shook his head helplessly, and said, "The sand gets harder the further down. I really don't know how Xiao Jiu fell. ”

"Master, did you really see Xiao Jiu fall from here with your own eyes?" asked Sun Wukong.

"She was only three or four meters away from her teacher at the time, and she couldn't be wrong with such a short period of being a teacher. Tang Seng said.

Sun Wukong frowned, and was about to say something, when suddenly there was a noisy sound behind him.
