Volume 2: Red Sand Adventures Chapter 7: Quenching the Body

"Shall we get started, then?"

Early the next morning, Xu Ke looked at the two of them, stood at the door and asked.

The two nodded.

"Okay, let's get out of town. ”

The three of them walked out of the city on the soft sands of the desert.

Nansha City was like an empty city during the day in this season, and the three of them walked all the way, but they didn't see a single living person. It may be that the sun is too poisonous at this time, and the people of Nansha City are sealed at home.

After walking for about two quarters of an hour, just walking simply, and before he officially started training, Tian Mao already felt that his head was starting to feel groggy at this time, and the feeling of heat stroke was becoming more and more obvious.

"Master, I'm going to have heat stroke. Tian Mao pleaded.

Huangfu Junjie was also drenched in sweat and walked in a trance.

And Xu Kelai, the only one who didn't feel a little strange, was getting faster and faster. The undulating desert was vast and insignificant, accompanied by a stream of heat, making the three of them very small.

"It's coming, hold on. Xu Ke said.

They climbed over one small hill after another, and finally when Tian Mao was about to collapse and faint in the next moment, they stopped at the foot of the largest sand dune in their field of vision.

"Take a break, drink a drink and start training right away. ”

The clothes all over the body were stained with salt left by the volatilization of body sweat, and the white bars were one by one. Tian Mao opened his lips, which were already spittle, and took a sip of water, which pulled Tian Mao's state back slightly.

It's so cool! The feeling of pulling life back in this moment is so refreshing, Tian Mao, who is cool, spreads his arms and falls backwards.

"Ahh

The temperature of the sand reached a terrifying high after the end of the day. Tian Mao may not have felt it in leather boots under his feet, but when he lay down, he knew through his clothes that this temperature could turn raw eggs into cooked eggs in half an hour.

"Alright, go cool. Take off your clothes and shoes, just leave a little dignity, see this dune? rush up, roll down. ”

Tian Mao was shocked, how could he have a chance to roll down, he would be dead halfway through.

Huangfu Junjie didn't drag at all, took off his clothes and ran towards the sand dunes.

With his own master here, he will definitely not die! As a guarantee for the master who has the identity of a cultivator, Tian Mao also stripped off his clothes and chased after Huangfu Junjie.

Tian Mao only felt that his feet were very painful, the high temperature of the sand was so hot that Tian Mao felt painful, he didn't dare to step on the sand for even a second, and the posture of running up was like jumping and jumping, vividly interpreting the 'ants on the hot pot'.

It's hot, it's very hot, and the skin on the body can't bear this kind of direct tanning on the naked skin, and it is instantly burned red, and the skin seems to be cooked, and a large piece of skin and flesh can be torn off with a little touch.

Tian Mao only ran a distance of less than 100 meters, and towards the heels of Huangfu Junjie in front of him, he was completely paralyzed in the sand, and the sand emitted white smoke and sizzled.

Huangfu Junjie also fell not far in front of Tian Mao.

Xu Kelai saw the two of them falling, and unhurriedly popped out two iron pieces engraved with runes at each of them.

The runes exploded in their heads, and a torrent of water poured down.

The two of them were suddenly drenched and screamed heartbreakingly.

"It's salt water. Yikes~"

After Tian Mao fell into the sand, the skin on his body was scalded and cracked, revealing bloody flesh and blood, and now he was splashed with salt water, it must have hurt terribly.

"Go on! Get up. In the distance, Xu Kelai roared at the two.

The two continued to run forward.

This time it was eighty meters, and it fell again.

Xu Kelai woke up the two of them in the same way and continued to move forward.

In addition to the harsh external conditions of the desert, which brought damage to the bodies of the two of them, Tian Mao's journey towards the sand dunes was also very uncomfortable, which was a great test of lung capacity and physical strength. With every step he took, he felt like his lungs were about to explode. Constant big gasps, constant gasps. The lack of oxygen in the brain caused confusion, and then numbness in the steps.

I don't know how many runes Xu Kelai played in total, Tian Mao and the others reached the top an hour later.

After they turned, they sat on the sand with their unconscious butts and looked at the distance below.

"Come on, come down!"

Although the distance was already far away, Xu Kelai's voice was still very clear in the ears of the two.

"Let's go, let's go down!" said Huangfu Junjie to Tian Mao weakly.

"Good!"

On this dune, two objects rolled upwards with sand rolled up. They rolled so fast that it took only half a quarter of an hour to stop, so fast that it was impossible to imagine that it took two men to climb the dune.

Xu Kelai walked towards where they had stopped and gouged out his two faces with his hands.

Tian Mao gasped and opened his eyes, looked at Xu Kelai, who was leaning over and face to face, and said very weakly: "Master, dig me out, I really don't have the strength." I feel like I'm getting ripe. ”

Tian Mao's voice was too small, and Xu Kelai leaned close to his ears to hear all these words.

"It's okay, boy. The smell of your flesh doesn't attract beasts, because there aren't many beasts in this desert. ”

Tian Mao was speechless, so he could only break free from the shackles of the sand little by little, one by one, and save his body.

Before going up the mountain and after coming down the mountain, the two of them directly seemed to have changed faces. Not a single piece of skin was intact on their bodies, and there were countless grains of sand stuck to the blood.

Xu Kelai was very rude and grabbed the ankles of the two and threw them together.

"How's it feeling?

I'm a cool uncle.

Tian Mao scolded his mother in his heart, but unfortunately he didn't have the strength to speak now.

"Yes, if you don't speak, it's cool. ”

"Senior brother, I didn't expect you to feel cool. ”

Huangfu Junjie was directly speechless, this junior brother who had always been naughty and mischievous by his side, now there was no way to take him.

"Just kidding, just kidding. Come, one person returns to the god pill, hurry up and adjust it. ”

Xu Kelai fed one of the pills to each person, and then poured the water bladder into the mouths of the two of them. The two people who couldn't move were filled with Xu Kelai's faces, but their bloody faces could already tell what kind of expressions they were changing.

The effect of the pill was very strong, and after a while, the two of them gradually regained their spirits and had the strength to sit up.

"Yo! I thought I would have to lie down for a while before I could get up for the first time, so I took a break and started the next trip right away. ”

Nima. It's going to start the next trip, it's torturous. One trip is almost to kill one, and the second trip can't stand it at all.

But now I understand why all the previous eating and drinking was just to lay a good foundation, and this first day was like this, if you don't lay a good foundation, you will not die.

"Alright, let's go, we'll go home. ”

"Ah! Uncle Shi is waiting for me. ”

... ...

The setting sun turns red, rendering large swaths of the desert crimson, corresponding to the name of the red sandbar.

Under the setting sun, the body of a young man wrapped in clothes was dragging two unconscious people from the sunset towards Nansha City, dragging two ravines in the desert.

He dragged it until the north gate of Nansha City before stopping, and got into the 'mansion'.

Xu Kelai set up two fires in the basement, and there were two large cauldrons on top of the fires, and a variety of medicinal herbs were soaking in the pots.

He threw Huangfu Junjie and Tian Mao into the two cauldrons respectively, splashing a splash of water, and slowly rising hot.

As the water temperature rose, Tian Mao woke up slowly.

He felt surrounded by warmth, and the numb skin on his body began to feel it.

When Tian Mao woke up, the first thing he saw was Huangfu Junjie, who was sitting naked in a cauldron opposite.

He subconsciously looked at his situation, and sure enough, it was the same.

"Master, the water is about to boil, stop the fire!"

The water temperature continued to rise, and Tian Mao was also uncomfortable.

"What are you afraid of, I'm shocked every day. Look at your body for yourself. ”

Tian Mao looked obediently, and saw that the skin on his body was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the smooth and white skin re-covered the bloody wound.

Tian Mao took advantage of the fact that the water had not yet boiled completely, and hurriedly dived his face into the water, the body was not important, the key was to keep his face.

After a tickling sensation, Tian Mao stuck his head out of the water.

"What's the matter with that scar on your face? This pot of Hundred Herbs Body Refining Soup has not been able to repair it. Xu Kelai found that the scar the size of the little finger on Tian Mao's face was still there, and he asked in surprise at the moment.

Tian Mao touched his face with his fingers, and felt that this scar was really there, and it was also incomprehensible, even his own master didn't know, and he didn't know it.

"Enjoy! Even if it boils, it doesn't hurt you, you try to relax, and make your pores to the maximum, which is great for your body. ”

Hearing Xu Kelai say this, Tian Mao endured the hot water temperature, even if he dragged him out, he didn't want to come out.

The first refining ended with the ritual of simmering oneself in a cauldron.

On the second day, the three walked through the desert of Nansha City.

This time, he didn't continue to rush the sand dunes, and under the guidance of Xu Kelai, he came to another open place.

"Do you practice boxing?" asked Huangfu Junjie.

Xu Kelai nodded and said, "That's right, it was originally a practice arranged yesterday, but the two of you delayed too much time in refining your body." ”

Huangfu Junjie said: "It's okay to take it slowly." Let's go. ”

Xu Kelai opened his hands, surrounded by aura. In the vast desert, part of the sand seemed to come to life on its own, floating and rolling into a ball of sand, hanging in the air half a man high.

"Punch it! It's not just a punch, when can you break this sand ball with one punch, that's the trick. ”

What's so hard about this, it's just a ball of sand.

Tian Mao's 'ha' punch hit the sand ball straight on, and the fist instantly fell into the sand ball, but it did not shake it apart, and it was still hanging in its original position.

Can it be broken, is it sticky? He looked at Xu Kelai suspiciously.

Xu Kelai said: "Don't look at me, it's indeed wrapped in my aura." But I don't know how to break it, I'm not a martial artist, but the book says that punches and belts can be broken. The specific way to bring the fist to the gang is up to you to understand. ”

Huangfu Junjie knew that Xu Kelai didn't understand martial arts, and he learned everything from the cultivation method that recorded martial arts brought by his master.

So he didn't see if Xu Kelai would have any guidance, but just kept punching and punching tirelessly.

Punch out, punch out. Tian Mao's hands and arms began to ache, and after his fist stretched out the sand ball, the sand ball returned to its original state.

They all wondered how to punch to produce that so-called gangqi, was it the wrong posture, or the wrong way to punch?

But no matter how many punches they threw and how many sand balls they hit, they still didn't find any tricks, and there was no so-called gang.

There was no progress on the way back, and the day ended in a cauldron stewing itself.

In the days that followed, the first part was the same as rushing to the desert, stewing yourself, punching, and stewing yourself.

Tian Mao and Huangfu Junjie's bodies are getting stronger day by day, and their size is getting higher day by day.

Slowly, the speed at which they rushed to the top of the mountain continued to increase, and finally reached the point where they could punch and hit the sand ball at the same time in one day.

Later, they were able to stand up without returning to the Divine Pill, and the speed of their punches was dazzling, and they were able to shake the sand balls.

Despite constant progress, the ritual of simmering oneself in a cauldron is essential. In the ring brought by Huangfu Junjie, it is like an infinite treasure, and the inexhaustible medicinal herbs support the pot after pot of stewed 'condiments'.

On these days, they were immersed in cultivation with all their hearts, going back and forth every day in a very mental and very tired state, and they had no time to take care of the entire Floating Desolate Continent except for the Nansha City where they were located.

But there are still some other worries buried in the hearts of the two.

Huangfu Junjie is worried that his parents and blood relatives have no news yet.

Tian Mao was worried about the safety and growth of his comrades-in-arms who escaped from the barracks with him.
