Chapter 702: Jumping the pit
Narrowly avoided the quicksand pile that slipped beside him again, and the surface of the skin exposed to the outside of the clothes showed signs of bursting, as if tearing the skin. His face was red, and his lips were shriveled and torn due to extreme lack of water, and he endured the hot and dry fire coming out of his itchy throat.
Tang Ning swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, gasped sharply, supported his knees with his hands, and looked at the pile of sand next to him that was still more than ten meters high just now, and collapsed into a whirlpool-shaped quicksand pit in an instant, and the quicksand that rotated and collapsed rapidly was like a torrent that could swallow a life.
"Damn, what the hell is this test? What is it to test us? How high is the heat-resistant attribute? Or is it a test of reaction sensitivity? See if it will be swallowed by quicksand?"
"I have an idea. Jiang Tao simply took off his clothes and went naked. It's too hot, and it makes no difference with or without clothes. Moreover, the clothes are still sweat-stained on the body, and the skin stains on the body are even more uncomfortable, and the places where the skin is exposed to the sun are inadvertently rubbed by the clothes, and the hot ones are even more painful.
"Let's hear it. "Tang Ning tried to mobilize his spiritual power, but it didn't work. are all imprisoned and bound. I can't use any spiritual power. In other words, there is no way to get water. Otherwise, the water attribute spiritual power can also condense water in this kind of desert, at least it can ensure that the body will not collapse due to lack of water. But now, when there is no way out, I have to endure it. In the end, he didn't dare to guarantee whether he could hold back and not have an accident. Cultivation is sealed, spiritual power can't be used, and they are now ordinary people.
It's been two days, and I don't know how long it will take to find a way out, and if I can't bear it, I'll run out of body and die of hunger and thirst, although I don't know if I'll really die.
"Tang Ning, you said that this is probably a scene simulated by something similar to Qimen Dunjia, right?"
"It's not similar, I'm 100% sure that the sun above our heads and the desert under our feet are all fake. Zhou Yu hurriedly said.
"It's true, but I'm not sure what the method is. But there is one point, the technique is very high, very powerful. "Such a real environment, such a real feeling. Tang Ning was deeply impressed and admired.
"Since it is false, then you say, will the concept of time in the past two days also be false? I mean, the formation affects our most basic judgment, and there is an error in the surrounding time and space, or our minds have a wrong judgment?"
"You mean that two days have not actually passed, only a few minutes, ten minutes or less, and our perception of the external environment is all wrong, and the senses have deceived us?"
"Yes, that's what I meant. Tang Ning, the three of us have the highest cultivation for you, think about it, is there such a possibility as I said?"
Tang Ning thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes! Maybe you're right." Most likely, the senses have deceived us. ”
"So what do we do now?"
"I have an idea, but there is no way to do it, I have to wait until the end, the most important thing for now is to go to the cactus first to see if I can get something to quench my thirst, first replenish the water and then talk about it, I flashed, it was so dangerous! I almost fell into it!" Downing narrowly avoided a quicksand pit at his feet.
"Be careful. Zhou Yu followed closely behind Tang Ning. Although they don't know if they will really die if they fall into it, the three of them feel that it is better not to try lightly, everything has a case, if there is really an accident, they will not even find a place to regret it at that time.
02Cactus is one of the most common plants in the desert. They are several meters or tens of meters high, usually the stem body is thick, covered with thorns, some are columnar, more than 10 meters high, the weight is about hundreds of kilograms, standing majestically, very spectacular. Some thorny cacti can grow into giant balls two or three meters in diameter, and when their roots are split, they can flow out milky white tender stems and juice.
The cactus that grows in the desert all year round also has a special ability, which can minimize the consumption of nutrients and water in the body without eating or drinking during the dry season. When the rainy season comes, they are very sensitive to "wake up", and the roots of some cacti plants will be divided into dozens of branches and distributed in a radius of dozens of meters to absorb water, and can also become temporary water bladders to store a large amount of water.
They saw several huge cacti three or four meters tall that were already standing not far away, and they hurried towards him with all their might. Jiang Tao went around to the shade of one of the cacti, took a sharp breath, smashed more than a dozen sharp thorns with his fist, split a place that could be close to the epidermis of the cactus stem, poked out a few holes with a thick bowl mouth, and quickly opened his chapped lips to get close to the crack, ready to take a few mouthfuls of cactus juice, moistening the itchy throat and the fire that continued to gush out of the abdominal cavity. 02, but after waiting for a long time, nothing came out.
Hmm? What's going on? Could it be that there is no right place? Finding a mistake? After poking a few bigger cracks in a different place, he leaned his mouth over again...... But I pouted and waited for a long time and still nothing!
Tang Ning and Zhou Yu were also dumbfounded, this is not in line with the script! How could a cactus that grew so tall and fat have no juice?
But they still didn't give up, Jiang Tao felt that it might be because he was too short and didn't find the right place. When he struggled to make a few more cracks that were bigger than the previous two times in a place that was a lot higher than him, and even after changing several cacti in succession, there was still no drop!
At the same time, Tang Ning and Zhou Yu gritted their teeth and poked all the cacti within a few tens of meters around, each with dozens or hundreds of fist-sized cracks. It's still empty! No, there isn't a drop of water in the cacti in the desert! But they all look crystal green on the surface. There is not a trace of water in the stem, which is not at all consistent with the vital signs of cacti plants.
Jiang Tao kicked the cactus a few times in anger, and sat down in the hot sand pile with a decadent and dejected face. Enduring the double torment of the burning fire in the body and the boiling heat wave outside the body, he reached out and scratched the itchy neck on his back, and tore off a few pieces of stretched epidermis, but when his fingers slightly rubbed the skin under the tensed epidermis a little, he would shiver in pain.
Even if you know that this qiē is fake, this kind of hot pain reflected in the depths of the brain is too real. It's just like the real thing, but it's obviously a consciousness space here!
Tang Ning also looked at the few pieces of epidermis torn from the back of his neck in the palm of his hand. He grabbed a handful of hot sand by his side, and watched them slide down between his fingers, pondering in his mind. Do you really have to use that last method? If you make a mistake, you won't even have a chance to regret it.
"Downing, what should I do? I can't hold on. Zhou Yu sat in the hot sand in the shadow of a cactus. Listening to the tone of his voice, he wanted to wait here, ready to turn into a dry corpse directly.
Tang Ning looked into the distance, a patch of yellow sand, boundless, steaming, and the scene became distorted.
The lips are chapped and blood oozing when you move. The body has been exhausted, and the spirit is not exhausted, but it is not far away. The situation of the three of them is similar, and if they continue like this, they don't have to wait to find a way out, at most half a day, they will have to lie in this sea of yellow sand for a long time.
Furious, Downing said, "I have an idea. Originally, I wanted to wait until I was in a desperate situation when I couldn't do anything, but now, I don't think anyone can hold on for long. Rather than waiting for death, it is better to fight. ”
"If you fight, you will die, if you don't fight, you will die, so let's fight! Damn, it's a big deal that the bird is facing the sky. ”
"In this case, there is no choice. Downing, what do you do?"
Tang Ning looked at the two of them, then pointed not far away, and said, "Go in!"
Looking at the place Tang Ning was pointing to, Zhou Yu was a little confused and asked, "Wait, I'm a little confused, Tang Ning, what are we going into?"
"Quicksand pit!" Jiang Tao stood up and looked at the three or four flowing sand pits not far away. The pit is not big, at most a few tens of centimeters in range, but below it is a black hole that seems to be able to swallow a qiē, bottomless, and after falling in, ten deaths and no life. But he chose to believe Downing. Finally, he asked, "Are you sure?"
"Well, sure. If the senses do deceive us and make a mistake in our judgment of everything around us, then my approach may work. Tang Ning said word by word: "Death, middle, seeking, life!"
"What if you misjudge?" Zhou Yu also understood what Tang Ning meant, but he felt that the idea was terrible. Fight is fighting, but fighting hard is not gambling. It is possible to win, but you can bet on nine out of ten bets!
"If it's wrong, hang up. I'll go first. Tang Ning's expression was strict, and he suddenly grinned. "I think I can win the bet" Before the words fell, a figure rushed out next to him, it was Jiang Tao.
The two of them were stunned for a moment, watching Jiang Tao's body being swallowed up by quicksand.
"Wait for me. Tang Ning also shouted and rushed out, this idea was his, even if he was going to die, it should be him, and it was not Jiang Tao's turn.
The quicksand bunker is indeed the most dangerous killer in the desert. Eat people without spitting out bones.
Jiang Tao and Tang Ning fell into the same place, disappeared without a trace, but there was not even a trace on the surface.
"Damn, is it fun? If you want to die, you are so eager to wait for me, I'm coming!" Zhou Yu muttered to himself, and suddenly jumped into the quicksand pit with a loud cry, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
