Chapter 98: Exploration
Qin Shijie ignored the escaped three-toed jerboa and let it escape.
He then went into the oasis and, after making sure that there was no danger around, he cleaned up in the waterhole and rested.
Since entering the Ancient Forest Abyss in the morning, along the way, through the siege of the abyss beasts, followed by the sonic attack of the Earth Dragon King, and then the second sneak attack of the fierce beasts, this time and again the process is extremely thrilling, if you are not careful, you may die at any time.
In the process of this series, Qin Shijie didn't get a good rest, his whole person's physical and spiritual power was consumed a lot, and his mind was also tired.
Therefore, at this moment, in this small oasis in the desert, there is a rare place for such a good place to recuperate.
Qin Shijie hurriedly sat down cross-legged, meditated, ate and drank, swallowed pills, healed his wounds, and did everything possible to restore himself to the most perfect state.
In such an unknown world, only one's own strength is the best reliance.
When Qin Shijie meditated cross-legged and absorbed the aura in the air, he also noticed a little difference, the aura here seems... The purity of the aura is not as good as the aura of the big world outside.
There is always an astringent feeling, like when drinking water, there is a faint bitter taste in the water.
However, this astringent feeling is not very obvious, and there are no side effects on the human body, and this aura can still be absorbed if absorbed.
It wasn't until more than an hour had passed that Qin Shijie recovered and became energetic again.
It's just that, according to Qin Shijie's speculation, a long time has passed since they entered the Gulin Abyss, although it was dim and dark at the bottom of the abyss, and I didn't know what the sky was, but it must have been night.
But since entering this small world, the sun in the sky is still hanging in the sky, and even its position has not changed, which not only puzzles him.
In the end, he came up with two guesses, the sun in the sky is either not the sun of the outside world, or the time flow of this world is slower than the outside world, and it is much slower.
Qin Shijie felt that the first guess was more credible.
The second guess is a bit too, and even he doesn't believe it.
If time here is slower than the time in the outside world, how terrifying is this small world?!
It's just impossible.
After resting, Qin Shijie filled a few more water bags in the small pool, deposited the mustard seed ring, walked out of the oasis, and set off again.
He didn't want to stay in this oasis all the time, and while it was comfortable, he wasn't here to enjoy it.
After taking such a big risk to enter this world, it is natural to want to get more opportunities.
After such a long period of observation, coupled with the records of those ancient classics in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, Qin Shijie can already be sure that this place is definitely not just an emperor's relic!
Either it is a higher Venerable Relic Mansion, although this possibility is very low, and the second possibility is a small world!
According to the classics, the small world is a subsidiary small world derived from the big world of heaven and earth, and there will be all kinds of genius treasures in such a small world, and even some extremely cherished spiritual treasures.
If it's a small world that hasn't been explored, then there are even more treasures.
This small world can become
A strong man's posthumous cave must have been developed, but there should be many treasures left.
Therefore, Qin Shijie planned to explore this small world in order to get more treasures.
After passing through that oasis, the desert seems to enter a world full of life.
Although the sky is still yellow, it is no longer in that state of silence.
From time to time, there will be some green vegetation unique to the desert, as well as some small insects, rattlesnakes and other animals.
Among them, Qin Shijie also saw some black-horned pit vipers with black horns on their heads, most of which were fierce beasts.
Although their strength was only one and two grades, they were gregarious, and when he saw the large group of black-horned pit vipers, he avoided them from afar.
In addition, there are some sand snakes and lizards, etc., although they are all small animals, and they are not aggressive.
But Qin Shijie still didn't kill them, he was worried that once he killed these animals, the smell of blood would attract some powerful fierce beasts, which would not be good.
Another point is that Qin Shijie found that in this desert, in addition to those animals, there are also a large number of medicinal herbs, some of which are even rare and rare to see, and even the outside world is extremely difficult to see.
For example, raw stone flower, golden orchid, white thorn chrysanthemum, etc., are all excellent herbs that are rare to see in the outside world.
If these herbs can be exchanged in the academy, they can also get a very good contribution point.
Therefore, Qin Shijie walked forward vigilantly, while constantly digging the herbs he encountered on the road.
This kind of harvest is quite rich, which makes him happy.
Just as Qin Shijie bent down to collect a sand star grass, a loud rustling sound suddenly came from behind a sand dune.
The sound of the beast's footsteps was evident as loud as it had never been heard since entering the desert.
Qin Shijie, who was startled, hurriedly dug out the sand star grass, deposited it in the mustard seed ring, hurriedly bent down and ran up to the sand dune, carefully poked out half of his head, and looked towards the other side of the sand dune.
A few hundred meters below the sand dunes, a dragon-like figure crawled on the ground, writhing its body and moving into the distance.
The sand over there was rubbed against the huge figure, rolling up the yellow sand in the sky, billowing like thick smoke.
"White Star Salon!" After taking a closer look at the huge figure, Qin Shijie's pupils shrank suddenly.
Shirahoshi Sharon is more than 100 meters long, its body is earthy yellow, its body is like a huge earthworm, its body diameter seems to be estimated to be three or four meters, its body is covered with white spots, there are no limbs, and when it walks, it is like a snake crawling on the ground, twisting its body and moving forward quickly.
The strength of the White Star Salon is generally very strong, and the current salon is estimated to have at least five grades of strength!
Qin Shijie hurriedly suppressed the aura in his body to the lowest level, in case he was discovered by this White Star Salon.
If this White Star Sharon found out, he would definitely not be able to escape in such a desert.
Shirahoshi Sharon crawled on the sand, twisting his body and walking quickly into the distance.
Seeing the salon go away, Qin Shijie exhaled a long breath, and then found that cold sweat broke out behind his back
and soaked his clothes.
Using his spiritual power and steaming the clothes on his body, Qin Shijie turned around and left, walking in the opposite direction of the salon.
He didn't want to run into such a fierce saloon head-on.
After dodging the White Star Salon, Qin Shijie's whole person became more vigilant, and he walked forward with small wings all the way.
In this small world, it seems that there are also many fierce beasts, and the strength of these fierce beasts is also very strong.
Qin Shijie was in this desert, moving forward cautiously, while constantly digging up some elixirs in the desert.
In the process, I still haven't met any humans, and none of the warriors who have entered this space have been seen.
Although Qin Shijie was still puzzled, there was no way but to keep moving forward.
After walking for a long time, I saw a touch of green in the yellow sand in the distance.
"It seems that I have encountered a desert oasis again~" Qin Shijie smiled, and then walked over there.
Along the way, he hadn't encountered that kind of small oasis once or twice, but he didn't go in any other places to rest except for the first time.
Now that I've been walking for so long, it's time to rest again.
"I don't know what the hell sun is in the sky, it has been hanging in the sky, fiery and hot, and there is no sunset. ”
Qin Shijie muttered a few words, wiped his sweat, and walked towards the green in the distance.
That piece of greenery was still quite far away, and after Qin Shijie kept walking for a long time, he came to the front.
On the sandy ground a few hundred meters away, Qin Shijie observed as he walked, preventing any other powerful beasts from being in that oasis.
When he approached about fifty meters, Qin Shijie finally saw the appearance of that oasis clearly, and his eyes couldn't help but widen.
This oasis is not just an ordinary oasis, this oasis is not an ordinary oasis, this oasis is not here except for water and plants.
The biggest difference in this oasis is that the waterhole here is very special! the waterhole here is divided into two parts, half of which is round like the sun, and half of which is like a crescent moon.
The two pools are separated by less than three metres.
Moreover, the round pool was filled with steaming hot water, but the crescent-shaped pool emitted cold water!
The strange water sources of these two waterholes can be felt even by Qin Shijie, who is standing fifty meters away.
This peculiar phenomenon surprised Qin Shijie.
Two pools so close to each other, the water sources that emerge are two completely opposite characteristics.
Qin Shijie has never discovered this strange phenomenon.
This strange phenomenon made Qin Shijie keep getting closer, and as the distance got closer, he also discovered that this oasis was so quiet, and there was no sound of even that kind of small insects chirping.
This made him secretly raise his vigilance, and his pace slowly slowed down, carefully observing his surroundings, ready to fight or flee at any time.
As the distance got closer to the oasis, Qin Shijie's vigilance was raised.
When he stopped ten meters away from the oasis, there was an eerie silence all around.
