Chapter 493: A letter from home is worth 10,000 dollars
On this day, Ouyang Shang received a letter that made him quite curious.
In the Savage Lands, correspondence is rare, as many communication spells are difficult to work properly due to the region's special geographical conditions. As for the Flying Sword Messenger, it seems to be safe, but it is easy to be intercepted by the spirits that inhabit this place in mid-air. In the months since entering the wilderness, even letters from the elders of the division have rarely been received, and this group of management trainees is almost isolated from the world. But they still have a way to communicate with each other, as long as they can closely connect with the leyline aura of the Savage Lands, they can use the power of the earth to transmit information.
However, in order to use the leyline aura, it is necessary to establish the corresponding altar, and this is not a one-and-a-half day's work, and the resources that need to be invested are also quite a lot, especially in the wilderness. This group of them set out from Lingjian Mountain, and each of them had construction materials on them, but the number was not too large - the sect's economic situation was a little more difficult after all. If you don't find a treasure of feng shui, no one is willing to invest resources in building an altar. Even Ouyang Shang's team, in order to better open up the Fuquan Dragon Jiao not long ago, only a few people gathered resources and built a fortress on the top of the mountain, including a magic altar for communication.
Ouyang Shang thought that the progress of land reclamation was fast...... This Da Song Mountain Fuquan, in the eastern part of the entire wilderness, is not too big or small to be regarded as a treasure land of feng shui, the quality of the buried nodes under the Fuquan water is quite good, just suitable for the monks up and down the Jindan to practice. And they can completely occupy this place in four or five months, so they will invest resources in building here. And the base has just been built.
And the other teams of juniors and sisters should not progress so fast...... Or are they having trouble clearing the wasteland and have no choice but to build a base in an unsuitable place?
With many questions in his heart, Ouyang Shang opened the letter, his eyes only swept twice, and his face changed slightly.
The letter is a letter asking for help, and the content of the letter is very simple: Senior Brother Liu Sandao has lost contact with him in the desert area, and he begs Senior Brother for help.
The person who wrote the letter was Feng Yin, a disciple he trusted a lot. The qualifications and perceptions are excellent, although for various reasons, the strength is not the top in the golden generation, but the heart is mature, and it can be a heavy responsibility. This time, everyone was divided into multiple teams, and the leader of the team that went to the northernmost point was Kazechan.
Based on his understanding of Feng Yin, he is a very strong person, and he usually tries to solve problems by himself even if he encounters them, and he does not want to trouble others. At this time, I wrote to myself for help, and I am afraid that the situation is not as simple as losing contact.
And he also knows Liu Sandao's junior disciple very well, that is one of the few outer disciples in the golden generation.
The title of this outer disciple actually has some stories, his master is one of the elders of the Heavenly Sword Hall, and he can be regarded as a red seedling...... But he was from a bad background, before entering the mountain, he was a famous bandit in the mortal world, killing people like hemp, and by chance, he was enlightened under the elders of the Heavenly Sword Hall and embarked on the road of immortality. It's just that after stepping into the Immortal Gate, Liu Sandao still has a bandit aura on his body, and he can't help but stumble a little when getting along with his fellow disciples, and then he becomes more and more withdrawn, and is even jokingly called the outer disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect.
The disciples who grew up in this environment have a lonely personality and are loners. Long before this management training livelihood was planned, he had gone into many dangerous places alone. Everyone has long been accustomed to it. At the beginning, he and Feng Yin's junior brother were put into a team, and some people were worried that Feng Yin would not be able to suppress him, but now it seems that something is really wrong!
Lost contact in desert areas...... Tsk, what a good swimmer.
Ouyang Shang closed the envelope, and he already had a rough idea in his heart.
It must be Liu Sandao who believes that he is the root of the Earth Walking Heavenly Spirit, and with years of penance and cultivation of earth phase spells, he thinks that he can move freely in the desert area, and he is more comfortable than many indigenous creatures. Then he threw off the team and went deep alone, and set up a base in the desert alone, but he didn't expect that there was a great crisis hidden in the desert, which was not at all something that could be solved by the Tuxing Heavenly Spirit Root, and then, the whole team was affected by him.
Of course, the Spirit Sword disciples are in the same spirit, no matter what Liu Sandao's popularity is on weekdays, they can't always stand by and watch after a dangerous situation, but judging from Feng Yin's letter for help......
"This idiot, no matter how urgent it is, why don't you write down what you want me to do...... Just a line of pleading for help, what should the ghost know to help you? Do you want to help you incense Liu Sandao!? ”
But from another point of view, although Feng Yin often has omissions, it is not so rough, most likely because the surrounding situation is already very disadvantageous when writing the letter, and it is too late to write too long...... The last plea for help may not be asking him to help find someone, but to help all of them get out of their predicament.
As for the location of the letter, it is not difficult to go backwards along the residual mana on the letter, but the problem is ......
Now on Fuquan's side, he is really a little inseparable, he is the most important link in the leveling plan, during Wang Lu's retreat and recuperation, he is the only point that can contain Long Jiao in the front, once there is no him, no matter how hard others fight, there is no way to make up for the huge gap between him and Long Jiao's realm.
As for giving up Fuquan Longjiao...... It's not impossible, after all, human life is great, but even giving up Fuquan is not a simple matter. If you leave like this, this base will definitely not be able to be saved - that Dragon Jiao even spewed out dragon balls during the last battle, and it is obvious that it will fight the human race at all costs. He will never stick to Fuquan's hometown again, once Ouyang Shang leaves, Long Jiao will immediately rush out of the water and rush straight here, and at that time, the junior brothers and sisters who have not fully grown up will definitely not be able to hold it.
If you can't hold it, you can only run, but where are you going to run? The wilderness kills every step of the way, and you can't just run around. And at the beginning, going deep into Fuquan was a dangerous move, and the strength of the spirits around was generally relatively high, without their own leadership, could others retreat to a safe area unharmed?
However, if he had led the team to bring everyone back to safety, Feng Yin's side would probably have been wiped out long ago.
Alas, it's really a lack of skill...... But luckily, we have someone on hand right now...... No, to be precise, it should be better than yourself.
It's just that I don't know how his injuries are recovering, he was bombarded head-on by the Dragon Balls three months ago, and he was almost a dying serious injury, and it is really a problem to recover in just three months.
Thinking of this, Ouyang Shang felt even more headache.
Fortunately, just half a day later, another letter turned things around.
"Senior Brother Liu has met the help of noble people, we have turned the crisis into safety, and we are very ashamed to disturb Senior Brother before."
The second letter sent by Feng Yin was much more substantial, as it said that their situation had been turned around, and they had plenty of time to write a long letter.
According to what Feng Yin said in his heart, Liu Sandao went deep into the desert alone a month ago, and then there was no news. According to the original agreement, he should return from the desert within a week at most, and if he did not return, he would be in trouble.
Feng Yin tried a variety of means but failed to get in touch, so he had no choice but to lead the team into the desert to search and rescue together.
Of course, as the team leader, Feng Yin is responsible for all the team members, so he doesn't dare to go too deep, and once he really encounters danger, he can only abandon Liu Sandao and save the others...... Unfortunately, as soon as we entered the desert area, we encountered a violent sandstorm. The blazing wind blew the skin of the human flesh like a sharp blade, and the group was in a dilemma, so they used magic to dig through the sand dunes and build a temporary shelter underground, and were spared.
Then came the endless sandstorms. The sandstorm in this desert area lasted for a full week, and it showed no signs of slowing down, and the desert underground was somehow hot and unbearably hot, and the aura was almost depleted. The group lasted for a week, and the supplies were quickly depleted, and it was about to be unsustainable.
In a desperate situation, Wind Yin has no choice but to try to ask for help from others. And in view of the harsh environment in the desert area, ordinary people are afraid that they will not be able to protect themselves, let alone help, so after thinking about it, they can only ask for help from the senior brother...... In the case of the sandstorm, the leyline aura is very disordered, and Feng Yin has tried to send a long letter several times but failed, and finally can only send a short message to ask for help.
Shortly after the first letter was sent, the sandstorm stopped.
At the same time, Liu Sandao, who had been missing for more than a week, also returned, and also brought a group of strange friends.
"It's hard to imagine that there is a civilization of intelligent beings in the wilderness! It was a group of natives living in the depths of the desert, and their appearance was highly similar to that of humans, but their skin was red and purple due to the high heat of living in the environment. At the same time, due to the lack of plants in the desert area, they basically hunt for meat for a living, so they have a mouthful of sharp teeth. But they seem to be cruel, but they are actually docile and amiable. Previously, Senior Brother Liu was seriously injured when he was attacked by a strange beast in the desert, but they saved Senior Brother Liu. It was also they who found us after the sandstorm stopped and brought us precious things and water. At present, we are in good condition, and we no longer need to worry about our senior brother. ”
Seeing this letter, Ouyang Shang was really taken aback, there was still a wisdom and civilization in the wilderness, which was an unheard of miracle. The sect elders have been exploring the barbaric land for hundreds or thousands of years, but they have never mentioned that there is such a group of sandmen in the desert......
But then again, in the past hundreds of thousands of years, with the power of the Spirit Sword Sect alone, they have never been able to completely explore the Savage Land, especially in the depths of the desert, which seems to be really an untouched place...... The existence of the sandmen makes sense.
It's just that no matter how you look at it, what happened to them seems to be a little too coincidental, and it's hard to believe that it could be a pure coincidence, but it's also a different perspective.
What about my own experience?
From the time-traveler Wang Lu one hundred and fifty years later...... Hey, even this kind of person can be encountered, so what is it for Wind Whisper to encounter a sandman in the desert?
Thinking of this, Ouyang Shang decided not to worry too much about it for the time being. The purpose of the sect's management training livelihood is to cultivate talents who are independent, not to shout that the master has been captured by monsters when they encounter difficulties. Solve the problems you encounter by yourself, even if those sandman tribes are in any danger, it is their cultivation.
So Ouyang Shang began to reply to the letter, and after seriously exerting himself on Feng Yin and the others, he prepared to send the letter.
At this moment, the footsteps behind him sounded, and the letter from the wind chanting placed on the side was lightly picked up by a person.
"Senior Brother Wang Lu, are you okay?"
In this front-line base, only he and Wang Lu could enter and exit Ouyang Shang's room freely, so he didn't need to look back to know that Wang Lu, who had been in retreat for three months, had recovered from his injuries and left the customs.
"Well, after three months of rest, sexual performance has fully recovered."
"Do you mean performance recovery?"
"It's all the same...... Tsk, I said Senior Brother Ouyang, this letter is a bit interesting. ”
Wang Lu said, stretched out his hand and flicked the letter paper: "Red skin, fangs in the mouth...... Why does the description in this letter look so familiar? ”
As he spoke, the smile on his face grew cold.
