Chapter Ninety-Eight: Recuperation
Such a scene is not an exaggeration to count as a paradise, the yellow sand is everywhere outside, but here it is quiet and serene.
"Come on, over here. Jiu Tian took Gu Fan to a wooden chair by the lake, and the two sat down.
"It took a lot of effort to keep this place safe from sand and man-eating insects. Gu Fan asked respectfully.
"yes, I've got everything here. Jiutian sighed, looking at everything here, with a hint of relief on his face.
Looking at the other party's appearance, Gu Fan couldn't help but have some doubts, it stands to reason that if he can maintain such an oasis in the Gegu Desert, the strength of the other party should be extremely strong.
"By the way, what are you doing in this Gegu Desert?" Jiu Tian looked at Gu Fan and asked, this place is not anywhere else, you can come and leave as you want, how many people have died in the bloody mouths of man-eating insects.
"I wanted to go into the deepest part of the Gogu Desert and find something. Gu Fan didn't specify, although this Jiutian seems to be a good person, but after all, they just met, so there is no need to say everything.
"You're going to the deepest part?" Jiutian frowned slightly, isn't this a joke?
He didn't dare to enter that place, and the little doll in front of him, who seemed to be in the realm of martial arts, was so bold.
"Yes. Gu Fan nodded, although there were countless man-eating insects on the way, he had to go no matter what.
"Do you know what's in that place?" asked Jiu Tian as he stared at Gu Fan, even he didn't dare to enter that place easily.
"I don't know. Gu Fan shook his head, he was telling the truth, although the location of the treasure was indicated on the map, but there was no specific explanation.
"You dare to enter the Gegu Desert without knowing anything?" Jiu Tian was stunned for a moment when he heard Gu Fan's answer, this is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.
"I had a reason to go. Gu Fan said seriously, as long as he knew that he could get stronger there, he didn't care.
"You're a daring boy. Jiu Tian laughed, he saw the firmness in the eyes of the young man in front of him, even if he wanted to dissuade him, it was estimated that there was no possibility of success.
Gu Fan smiled and scratched his head, he was not afraid of death, but if he wanted to become stronger, how could he be comfortable, only to seek wealth and danger.
"The deepest part of the Gogu Desert is not a place of treasure. Jiutian said lightly, as if reminiscing.
"Oh?" Gu Fan hurriedly listened carefully, listening to the other party's words, as if he had been there.
"It's a castle, no, a demon's palace. Jiutian had a painful expression, he couldn't get out of this oasis because of the demon.
"Demon?" Gu Fan was stunned, could it be that there was nothing else in this Ge Bone Desert besides man-eating insects?
"Do you know why this place has become a desert?" Jiu Tian suddenly asked, his serious tone making Gu Fan a little flustered.
"I don't know. Gu Fan shook his head and said, "Could it be that the forest before here is not successful?"
"You're right. Jiu Tian's words surprised Gu Fan, how could this be possible!
Yue Lao had been here before, which means that this place was already a desert 10,000 years ago, so why did the person in front of him know what happened 10,000 years ago?
"I lived here when I was alive, and it was still a green scene...... "Jiutian said slowly.
Before his death! Gu Fan was shocked, could it be that the person talking to him in front of him was a ghost?
"Calm and calm, although my body is dead now, my spirit still exists. Seeing Gu Fan's surprised expression, Jiu Tian hurriedly explained.
"Hmm......" Gu Fan exhaled a few times vigorously to calm down his excited heart.
"It's supposed to be almost the same existence as me. Yue Lao suddenly said, if his speculation is correct, this oasis is a spiritual weapon!
"But because of the woman's arrival, it's all ruined. Jiutian said, a few tears gradually flowing from his eyes.
"She's so strong that even if we fight back, it won't help. ”
She summoned countless man-eating insects and gnawed at everything, and soon, all the trees here were gone, leaving only a patch of sand. ”
"In order to preserve this last piece of hope, my brother and I did not hesitate to refine ourselves into spiritual weapons, and my brother also turned into a formation and slept forever under the surface of this lake. ”
"And I, on the other hand, am forever sealed in this oasis in the state of my soul. ”
Gu Fan's eyes widened when he said for a long time, no wonder this oasis could exist in the desert, it turned out to be like this.
This Jiutian and his brother were definitely strong men during their lifetimes, otherwise it would not be an easy task to maintain such a large array of spiritual weapons for so many years.
"I said why I didn't detect him, it turns out that he is one with this place. Yue Lao said lightly, his speculation was relatively accurate.
"That woman saw that we were so resolute that she didn't attack this place again, otherwise this last place of hope would have been gone a long time ago. Jiutian said, laughing at himself.
The weak can only survive under the mercy of the strong, although they are dissatisfied with their mouths and hearts, but they have no strength to resist at all.
"What strength does that have to be?" Gu Fan sighed, a person who has lived for tens of thousands of years, the current strength is probably beyond his imagination.
"It's so strong that you don't have the slightest sense of resistance. Jiutian said helplessly, when facing that woman, he didn't even have the courage to make a move.
"Cut, living for a long time doesn't mean that the strength is great. Yue Lao said disdainfully, some people are talented in cultivation, just like Gu Fan, they can do what others can do in a few months or even decades.
"Damn, tens of thousands of years, don't have the strength to live so long?" Gu Fan scolded secretly, although what Yue Lao said was also reasonable, but the premise of living a long time is to be able to live.
"That's right, haha. Yue Lao smiled awkwardly, if he could live so long, I am afraid he might become a god.
"The woman patrols the desert for a week every year, as if she's looking for something, but I don't know why. ”
"Do seniors know the specific time?" Gu Fan hurriedly asked, if he took advantage of this time to enter, maybe the danger would be much less.
"I don't know. Jiutian shook his head, "The time of year is different, and I haven't found any patterns. ”
Jiutian has lived for so long, how can he not know what Gu Fan is thinking in his heart, but it is true, that woman is really strange.
"Okay. Gu Fan was a little disappointed, it seemed that he had to break through.
"So...... Can you not go or not. Jiu Tian thought about it for a long time, and still planned to persuade Gu Fan.
He could see that the young man in front of him was definitely a person who had achieved great things, and if he grew up for a few more years, he might be able to break out of the world, but now he was going to come to the Gegu Desert.
Isn't this purely to send you to death?
"It's fine. Gu Fan showed an innocent smile, but it made Jiu Tian stunned.
"I promised a girl that I would definitely go to her in a year, so it was worth it. ”
"And I don't have to die, maybe I'll make it. ”
Jiu Tian looked at the young man in front of him, speechless, such courage and persistence, even he was ashamed of himself.
"If you can succeed, maybe this place will be restored to its former state. Jiutian said to himself, this is his ideal in this life.
But he only has a soul now, and he is still a machine spirit, unlike Yue Lao, who has his own strength, he can't cultivate here, so he can only wait.
"So many man-eaters are chasing me, but I'm still sitting here safely, and the rest of the things, what's so hard to get me. Gu Fan smiled with relief.
"Haha. Jiutian also laughed, it seems that he really can't persuade him no matter what, so let him go.
What if it does succeed?
"And when are you going to leave?" asked Jiutian, who could prepare something for the other party to repel man-eating insects.
"I'm afraid I'll have to bother my seniors here for a few days. Gu Fan said respectfully, he already felt that he could break through at any time, and since it was safe here, let's go after breaking through.
"It's okay, it's okay. Jiu Tian hurriedly waved his hand, he has been here alone for so many years, and it is good to have someone who can talk now.
Although there are a lot of animals in this oasis, one person always feels like something is missing.
"Just don't nag me. After Jiutian finished speaking, Yang Tian laughed.
After that, he found a temporary place for Gu Fan to live, anyway, there was no one else here except Jiutian, so it was safe now.
Those little animals wouldn't come to attack him, but the rabbit kept looking at Gu Fan, as if he was laughing at him for not being able to catch himself.
"When are you going to break through?" Yue Lao asked lightly, with Gu Fan's current state, breaking through would be a breeze.
"Tomorrow. Gu Fan took a bite of the fruit and decided, he didn't want to delay here for too long.
After all, out of this oasis, it is still far from the center of the Gogu Desert.
"Well, that's for the best. "Yue Lao Gu Fan has already decided, and there is no more interference.
In fact, according to his idea, he will break through and leave now, after all, it is just a simple waste of time here.
But Gu Fan doesn't think so, it's rare to have a beautiful environment and no one disturbs him, and it's good to rest here for a day or two.
He hadn't enjoyed such a free time for a long time.
In fact, it's not that Gu Fan is lazy, but that the fast pace of this time has made him too stressed, and when he came out of Cangyue City, he didn't stop until now.
Even in retrospect, I don't know how I crossed the entire Great Qi Kingdom.
The rabbit saw Gu Fan lying leisurely, and wanted to go over and be naughty, so he slowly jumped over.
"Squeak squeak~" Unexpectedly, Gu Fan, who had closed his eyes, suddenly grabbed its ears and lifted it up.
The rabbit could only shake its body in the air and bark, looking innocent.
"I'm going to roast you tonight. Gu Fan smiled, revealing two rows of big white eyes, but in the eyes of the rabbit, the person in front of him was like a devil.
But Gu Fan just said it casually, after all, this rabbit is a pet raised by Jiutian's predecessors, how can he eat it casually?
Seeing that he seemed to be really scared of the rabbit, Gu Fan let go of its ears, patted its buttocks, and let it run back into the woods.
