Chapter 945: Endless Sea of Sand
As soon as the hall master heard Ji Ruling say that he was going to the wailing abyss, he hurriedly stopped, "This can't work, you can't go, the wailing abyss is too dangerous, for the sake of those two ethereal soul elixirs, it is really not worth it to ask the two of you to risk your lives, now we have finally taken advantage of the Tianwu Palace in the situation, we must not lose the two of you, let's think about it in the long run, let's find the heads of the major factions together and ask, maybe someone in the know knows that there are other elixirs that can restore the soul."
"Don't worry, hall master, I know I have a few catties and a few taels, I'll go to the wailing abyss first, if I'm not sure, I won't go down" Ji Ruling's decision is not so easy to change, no matter how the hall master persuades, he seems to have eaten a weighing stone and has an iron heart, and he must go to the wailing abyss.
"Yes, hall master, if Brother Ji is in danger, I will also stop him" Of course, Shi Tian'er couldn't let Ji Ruling fall alone, and kept holding his hand and refused to let go, so he wanted to go with him.
Ji Ruling also understood Shi Tian'er's character, and at the beginning she agreed, but at the moment when she was about to leave the Medicine Master's Palace, he knocked her unconscious with a knife.
Ji Ruling handed Shi Tian'er into the hands of the hall master, "This is a matter between me and the concubine, it's not worth letting her accompany me on an adventure, when she wakes up, the hall master, you must stop her from coming to the wailing abyss to find me, just tell her I'm sorry for her" After speaking, Ji Ruling left the Medicine Master Hall alone.
How dangerous this wailing abyss is, you can know from the expression of the hall master when he introduced the wailing abyss just now, Ji Ruling, and it is really because it is too dangerous, so it will be listed as taboo by the older generation of the entire Hundred Battles Continent, and he will not say anything.
Of course, Ji Ruling knew that that place must be extraordinary, and even he himself did not have the confidence to escape with his whole body, so it was even more impossible to take Shi Tian'er on an adventure with him, although he knew that Shi Tian'er would definitely blame himself when he woke up, but it was better than risking his life with him.
According to the records in the ancient books, the wailing abyss is in a desert in the extreme west of the Hundred Battles Continent, which was originally at the junction of the Great Qin Empire and the Southern Ming Empire, and further west is an endless desert, which people call the endless sand sea.
Because the environment in this sea of sand is very harsh, the temperature is above 50 degrees all year round, and the hottest time during the day can even reach more than 60 degrees, and at night the temperature will drop rapidly and fall below freezing.
However, according to legend, this desert was once a dense oasis, and even an unprecedented ancient civilization appeared several times, which also attracted many gold diggers to search for the whereabouts of ancient civilization relics in this desert, hoping to find something like ancient relics.
After Ji Ruling came here, all he saw was the endless desert and the dazzling sun, not to mention people, even demon beasts and plants are rarely seen here, the rolling hot wind mixed with the rolling yellow sand blowing on the face, even if Ji Ruling has reached the Destiny Star Realm, but there will still be a very uncomfortable feeling.
Because the ancient book that Ji Ruling found in the headquarters of the Medicine Master Hall before only had a preliminary description of the location of the wailing abyss, and did not write down the exact location of the abyss, plus the hall master wished he couldn't find it, and it was impossible to tell himself, so Ji Ruling could only rely on his own strength to find it little by little.
Ji Ruling flew all the way in the sky, looking down on the endless sea of sand from above, hoping to find the clue to the wailing abyss or grow enough that the fire man could let him ask for directions, even though he had already flown very high, but the heat reflected by the scorching sun on the desert still seemed to put Ji Ruling in the oven, hot he was sweating, this vast sea of sand, I really don't know where to find the entrance to the abyss.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in front of him, and Ji Ruling looked forward sharply, only to see a pole erected behind a hill in front of him, and something like a sail seemed to be hanging underneath, slowly moving northwest.
"Isn't this a sail, is there a water source ahead?" Ji Ruling was hot now, and he was very eager to have a cold lake to cool him down, with such a big sail, at least a lake of considerable size, so Ji Ruling immediately flew forward and crossed the huge hill.
But what I didn't expect was that Ji Ruling didn't see the sea behind the hill, there was no lake, not even a drop of water, only a huge ship, relying on the strong wind in the desert, pushing this huge ship to glide on the sea of sand, the structure of the bottom of the ship has been modified by them, in order to keep it flat, two small boats were added on both sides, such a design was very unique, it could sail like the sea in the sand, even Ji Ruling himself did not expect it.
But since there are ships in action here, it means that there are people, and if there are people, they can inquire about the whereabouts of the wailing abyss, Ji Ruling immediately jumped on the deck of the ship and shouted, "There are people, there are people on board, I want to ask for directions"
Originally, there was no one on this deck, but when Ji Ruling shouted so loudly, dozens of strong men rushed out of the cabin, wearing vests and vests, and holding sharp blades, surrounded him heavily, seeing that these guys were fierce and vicious, with bronzed skin all over their bodies and obvious scars, they didn't look like good people, but a bit like pirates.
After all, Ji Ruling wanted to inquire about some news from them, and no matter what the identity of the other party was, he saluted them very politely, "Brothers, you are polite, and it is a bit abrupt to board the ship rashly without invitation, please forgive me, and then I want to ask you about something, I don't know if you can write an answer." ”
However, these guys didn't seem to be in such a good mood to chew the words with Ji Rulingwen, and directly took a step forward and drew their respective swords, "Don't talk nonsense with Lao Tzu here, if you don't want to die, hand over all the food, fresh water and belongings on your body, otherwise you will be killed."
Ji Ruling sighed deeply, "I still think that in such a wild place, I can't see a few animals, how can someone still drive such a big boat around, it turns out that you are doing the business of sand thieves, and there are also eyeless robberies on my head."
