Chapter 479: Desert Inn
The moon is hidden and the sun rises, the stars shift, and a month later in the blink of an eye.
After drifting on the sea for half a month, the two daughters finally took Gu Fan ashore, but they came from the Jade Buddha Ridge and were not familiar with the ancient martial arts world at all, so they didn't have any sense of direction, and only knew that they would never stop moving forward all the way.
For a whole month, they were used to hurry, until today, Qin Wen and Qin Rou finally stopped, just because there was a road ahead, and there seemed to be no road.
In front of me, there is a large desert, at a glance, the flying sand and rocks and smoke and dust are billowing out, so big that there is no end in sight, and there is a strong smell of death in the middle.
As we all know, if there is no oasis in the desert, it means vastness and despair, no water, no food, and endless scorching sun, often because of lack of water, until it is roasted dry, even if the cultivator is different from ordinary people, he can hold on for a little longer, but after all, he is still a mortal, not an immortal, how can he ignore the harsh living conditions.
This road, to move forward or not?
Qin Rou carried Gu Fan on her back, looked at her sister, and then asked with a frown: "Sister, we have been running for a whole month, it should be far enough, there is a desert ahead, lest there be an accident." ”
Qin Wen pondered for a while, then shook his head and said: "I always feel unreliable, those are five sects, not alone, if the news that Gu Shao is not dead leaks out, they will definitely be able to follow our trajectory along the way, and the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
What Qin Wen said was very reasonable, Qin Rouwu nodded to herself, it has been a whole month, Gu Fan is still in a deep sleep, and there is no sign of waking up, they have no backbone at all, and they can only rely on themselves at the moment.
After hesitating again and again, Qin Rou showed a firm look in her eyes and said, "Let's go, sister, let's take a look at the desert first, the environment is too bad, let's turn back as soon as possible, if there is an oasis, then it will be better." ”
The two daughters reached a consensus and resolutely walked into the desert.
This place is the Yunha Desert, how many kilometers there is in the whole journey, no one knows so far, legend has it that even if it is a strong person in the Yang Spirit Realm, he does not want to rely on his own cultivation advantages to walk all over the desert.
Different from ordinary deserts, the environment of the Yunha Desert is relatively harsh several times, don't say anything about the water source, not even cacti, no creature can survive here, at a glance, except for the overwhelming yellow sand, there is nothing else.
In addition, as soon as you enter the Yunha Desert, you can notice that the temperature has increased countless times compared to the outside, and there is only one round of scorching sun in the sky, but it seems that there are nine rounds suspended in the air, and the heat is unbearable.
As powerhouses of the Yang Spirit Realm, the two women had only stepped into the desert for a few minutes, and their clothes were soaked with sweat, coupled with the sometimes violent winds, the violent wind and sand hit them, making them look extremely embarrassed.
As I walked in, footprints appeared in the soft sand on the ground, and after a while, they were submerged by the new wind and sand, as if no one had ever come.
The more Qin Rou walked, the more panicked she became, she hunched her waist, shook Gu Fan on her back, and said anxiously: "This is nothing, let's not take risks, otherwise even if we are not hunted down, we will have to die here sooner or later, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”
Forced by the situation, Qin Wen naturally understood this, there was really no end ahead, which made people desperate, she quickly nodded and said, "Go, go back." ”
Just as the second daughter was about to return the same way, a coughing sound suddenly came out, startling the second daughter to scream at the same time: "Gu Shao!!"
After a month, the secret method of turtle breath disappeared, and Gu Fan woke up smoothly.
During this period of time, Gu Fan really didn't have any consciousness, and his memory was only stuck on the day he committed suicide, but with the two major anti-heaven exercises of "Ancient Divine Technique" and "Void Refining Body Decision", his body has been subtly repaired these days, and now there is no major problem.
After landing on the ground, Gu Fan shook his dizzy head and frowned at the scorching sun on the horizon, "Water." ”
Qin Wen almost trembled with excitement, quickly took out the kettle from the Sumeru ring and handed it over, Gu Fan poured a few sips hard, and threw it back, "Where is this, how can we be here." ”
Qin Rou took Gu Fan's arm and began to narrate what had happened in the past month, in great detail.
As for what kind of place this is, Qin Rou said with some uncertainty: "When I came from the market town outside, I seemed to hear that this was Yun...... What a big desert, I didn't hear too clearly. ”
Well?
Gu Fan raised his eyebrows and said in astonishment: "Could it be the Yunha Desert?"
"Yes, yes, how do you know, Gu Shao!" Qin Rou exclaimed.
Is it really fate?
Gu Fan smiled helplessly, thinking that day, when he met those inheritors of the Immortal Medicine Sect, he asked how to repair the Qiankun Ding, with the hint of the inheritance book, Liang Chenggang said that those materials came from the Yunha Desert, and here, it involves barbarians.
Obviously, a series of materials for the restoration of Qiankun Ding, such as 'Flowers on the Other Side', are inseparable from the barbarians.
Gu Fan had planned to come over earlier, but now due to fate, he was directly brought here by the second daughter by mistake, which can only be said to be the will of God.
"Keep going. Gu Fan said slowly,
This......
The two girls glanced at each other, their faces were a little embarrassed, Qin Wen said: "Gu Shao, what are your plans, the future is uncertain, and danger is everywhere." ”
"I'll have to come here sooner or later, and if I don't go, I won't go. Gu Fan didn't have a detailed explanation, he put down his words and walked forward, because he had been asleep for a month, his mind was still a little drowsy, and his speed was not fast.
This was Gu Fan's decision, and the second daughter naturally had no reason to retreat, and quickly followed.
Along the way, the footprints continued to increase, but Gu Fan remained silent throughout the whole process, never said a word, and the sisters did not bother, they knew that Gu Fan had all kinds of hatred in his heart.
Those five sects were aggressive, almost brewing a shocking disaster, and Gu Fan himself also wandered on the edge of the Ghost Gate, the hatred of the ancient times and the present was superimposed, and only with the blood of those people could it be calmed.
About an hour later.
The three of them don't remember how much water they drank, they were sweating profusely, and the taste of clothes and flesh clinging together made people feel so tormented, seeing that there was not much hidden water in the Sumeru ring, even Gu Fan himself could not avoid anxiety.
But just when Gu Fan was about to give up and move on, with his extraordinary eyesight, he suddenly found that there seemed to be some building in the distance!
"Look, what is that? Gu Fan said in surprise.
The sister flower released her aura at the same time, and her perception penetrated out as much as she could, and after a while, Qin Wen said: "It seems that there is a small wooden building, this is a place where birds don't poop and chickens don't lay eggs, how can there be residents, I'm afraid there is fraud." ”
But any normal person should know that in such a harsh environment, even tenacious cacti cannot survive, and how can there be residents!
However, Gu Fan didn't come to travel and vacation, he had a purpose, so in the face of such a scene, he could only continue to move forward, "Go and see, maybe it will be a mirage." ”
A mirage is a physical phenomenon in which all kinds of strange things are refracted by light.
After walking for more than twenty minutes, the three of them finally managed to successfully place themselves in front of the wooden building, which was five stories high, standing alone in the desert, which was particularly abrupt and unusual.
And, it's not a mirage, it's real.
Squeak –
Gu Fan pushed the door in, as far as the eye could see, this is a spacious lobby, there are more than ten wooden tables in it, each table has a kettle and chopsticks holder, and then look at the deepest counter, and a jar of wine on the counter, you can know that this is a retro inn.
Soon, a 'dong dong' footsteps hit, Gu Fan looked vigilantly, on the wooden ladder on the second floor, there was a rickety old man slowly walking down, stepping on the wooden board, the sound was particularly clear, he was wearing black linen, a typical peasant old man.
There is an inn in the Yunha Desert, and there are people with the image of an old farmer living here, which is really too abrupt.
"This is ......," Gu Fan asked in a low voice.
The old man walked very slowly, and every step of the stairs lasted for seven or eight seconds, as if he was really powerless.
After a long time, the old man entered the counter, and then raised his wrinkled face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Hit the tip or live in the hotel?"
Hiss......
An inexplicable terrifying aura swept over, causing the three of them to get goosebumps out of thin air, which was really infiltrating!
