"Whoosh......" The gourd broke through the sand, cut a beautiful arc in the air, and landed far behind a sand dune. The feather arrow sandbag tied to it was gone, and it was thought that it had been crushed into powder by the great force of the party.

After a long time, the gourd moved, and with a "bang", it rolled out of the gourd and spurted out a mouthful of blood. The force of the explosion just now almost crushed him, and if it weren't for the golden light flashing in his mind in time, I was afraid that he would have become a floating wreck in the sea.

As if he was in a different world, he took a breath. The sun in the sky is scorching, the heat waves of the sand sea are churning like a furnace, but it feels like a fairyland. The breeze brought up the sand and dust under his feet, and he found that the sand dunes were very quiet, and the great power of the sea did not reach the yellow sand, which was very magical.

A figure appeared on the ridge of the mound in the distance, wasn't it Yu Er?

"Yu'er? Yu Er...... Yu'er!"

Abandon and run towards Yu'er, running and jumping while waving the gourd and roaring hoarsely, just like the hungry ghost who had just been put back at the bottom of the impermanence rod at the bridge, and suddenly saw delicious food again.

Yu'er stopped on the sand mountain stupidly, and watched him roll and crawl closer.

"Abandon your brother, ...... You stinky pig's head, where did you die?" But seeing that her tears were like pear blossoms with rain, and her eyes were swollen like those little peaches, it was obvious that she had been crying.

Yu Er's hands were on the abandoned body, and he didn't know how to talk about thousands of grievances. Abandon a handful and take her into his arms and hold her like an iron hoop. Yu'er stopped struggling and gradually turned into a ball of nephrite.

The two hugged like this until Yu Er suddenly spoke.

"Brother Abandoned, look, how come there are two suns in the sky?"

Turning back, really, there are two suns in the sky. Under the sun, there is a lake of water, pavilions and pavilions in the lake, and painting boats shuttle, just like the real one.

The two were surprised.

"Abandon my brother, could it be that we have walked out of this sea of sinking sand?" Yu Er unconsciously wanted to go to the lake.

There was a flute in the wind, and he was alert, and Yu'er pulled him behind him.

The sound of the flute was very close, as if it came from the abandoned body, and it actually made a human voice: "Carving insect skills, come out." ”

As soon as these words came out, a huge sand mountain in front of him collapsed, revealing a huge ball of light.

If you look closely, it is a lizard-like monster with piercing and shiny bowl-shaped scales all around it. The beast put its body together, and breathed a wave of heat from its mouth, and the sunlight was reflected through its body, and through this heat wave, it gave birth to the wonder of the moment in the air.

The sound of the flute sounded again, and something flew out of the gourd. The object flew into the distance, making a sound like a swarm of insects and ants. When the beast heard this, he was very excited, and he followed the sound and ran away, but it turned out that the beast had no eyes, but had two great ears, and they were high as it ran.

He immediately noticed that the thing that flew out of the gourd was actually going in the direction of the Dead Sea, and he was afraid that the beast would suffer. Sure enough, a moment later, the beast was silently swallowed up by the Dead Sea. But it flew back.

This time, he and Yu'er saw it clearly, it seemed to be a piece of bone, with several small holes neatly arranged on it, and a pair of wings were born at the big hole in the middle. What kind of monster is this? I remembered the situation last night, and saw its methods today, but I didn't feel that my throat was tight, and the hunting knife was unsheathed, and Yu'er was tightly protected behind him.

"Don't be afraid, young man. "The bones make human sounds, like a reed in the throat, and it sounds weird and funny.

"It's just a mirage that turns the sand mountain into a trap and tempts people and animals into it. They don't like cannibalism, but they like insects and ants that eat corpses. The one that has been in this sea for thousands of years, giving birth to spirituality, can reflect the memory of devouring things in the air. ”

But he remembered the events of last night, and said in his heart: "Didn't you lure me into the Dead Sea and almost kill me?"

The thing seemed to know his thoughts: "Young man, I am different from it, he wants to harm people, but I save people." Last night's incident, although it was not a last resort, was also an opportunity between you and me, and I hope you don't mind. ”

Yu'er was very curious: "Abandon my brother, what happened last night?"

Qi suddenly remembered the sound of the ecstasy flute last night, and his face was red, and he didn't know how to open his mouth for a while.

"He was just fascinated by the five tones, evoking illusions in his heart. The thing turned to Yu Er, "Little sister of the river god, would you like to do me a small favor?"

"Are you talking to me?" Yu'er had never heard anyone call herself that.

"Is there anyone else here, and I am speaking to you? Little sister of the river god, I came from there to watch the water, but there is an old way to watch the water thousands of years ago under this sand sea, I don't know if you are willing to help me dredge it and help me go home. I have my own thanks. ”

Listening to this thing speak very strangely, Yu Er couldn't help but be a little curious.

"Yu'er, you are careful. This thing will move people's hearts, and now I don't know what idea I am making. Seeing Yu'er's curiosity, he didn't feel worried.

But the thing smiled: "All kinds of illusions, people's hearts are born by themselves, I just put the seven emotions in my heart into the seven orifices on my head, observe words and colors, and add fuel to the fire." If people's hearts don't move, I can blow through the sky, and what can I do? Besides, if I want to harm you, I just let the mirage bury you. ”

Thinking that he was reasonable, he stopped talking, but stared at him with only his eyes.

"You said that there was an ancient river channel under this sea of sand that was thousands of years ago, and now that the river has dried up, how did you get here?

"I've been in this sea for eons of years. As soon as the words came out, Yu'er and Qiqi were taken aback.

"Back then, this sea of sand was a paradise. One of the clear springs, spread into a large ze, surrounded by verdant grass and huge trees, our people will thrive here, only to give birth to children in spring and summer every year, before returning to the water. Who knew that a catastrophe had turned all our people into ashes, and sealed this spring deeply. I waited in this seal like a corpse, thinking that I would never see the light of day again, but I did not know that I had waited for you. ”

"Half a month ago, the mountains and rivers shook, and cracks appeared in the magic circle, and I thought: Could it be that chance has come? I tried to get out of the crack, but I was almost strangled by that formation, if it weren't for the strong bones of the old cow, you wouldn't be able to hear my words today. ”

"Yesterday, the two of you entered this sea of sinking sand, and when I saw the gourd of the young man, my heart suddenly settled. I just never thought that you were still a little sister of the river god, it was really pitiful for me, let me suffer for hundreds of millions of years, and finally get a little compensation. ”

This thing was mixed, so Yu Er had to ask one by one: "What is the old cow? Why do you feel hope when you see this gourd? How do you insist that I am that...... Sister River God?"

The thing laughed again: "God knows so many things, I know, and when I talk to you, you are difficult to understand." Okay, I'll start at the beginning. Do you know why this place is called the Sand Sea?"

This question has already been asked by her mother-in-law, and Yu Er has moved her mother-in-law out.

"This is just the words of the ignorant village! This was the ancient battlefield, and under this sea of sand is the land of the gods. In that fierce battle, the mountains and rivers were red, and the earth was sunk and the sky was falling. The stars fell, and the halberds sank ...... This place is named Shensha. ”

The object seemed to be caught in the memory of that time, and there was a deep fear in its tone. Those huge wreckage also appeared in his eyes, and a chill suddenly appeared in his heart.

"The old cow is the god of war admired by my people, if he hadn't inadvertently inhaled me while drinking, I would have been stuck between my throats. If it weren't for the fact that the opponent took advantage of his drinking, he suddenly beheaded him, and his throat bone flew out. If it weren't for the fact that Lao Niu's throat bone was indeed extraordinary, and I was well protected, I was afraid that I would have been wiped out in that bloody battle. ”

"After the Great War, the gods and gods were different. The traces here were covered up and smoothed out, the spring water and the corpses were sealed together, and I had pity on my thousands of races, all of whom were twisted into blood by the formation. This spring is like a bag of discarded things, buried in this wilderness, and the power of creation is smeared at will, and it has become what it is today. ”

What the thing said was incredible, and it was extremely surprising to abandon Yu'er.

"Alright, let's talk about this gourd. This gourd was famous as early as ancient times. But where did you get it, that you don't know much about it?"

Qu shook his head: "This gourd, but I have been with me since I was a child." ”

There was a flash of blazing light on the thing, and it was actually a divine sense to probe the abandoned body, and then his tone became extremely surprised: "Are you a mortal who has not cultivated? shouldn't you, shouldn't you...... I was so confused that I almost ruined your life. Fortunately, you have the ability to get out of that formation. ”

"I know this gourd very well, and the person who held the gourd back then was admired by everyone, or rather...... Afraid. You took this gourd with you, and I thought you would be the one who had attained the Word. After introducing you into that array, I saw that you used it freely, and it was even more reassuring. ”

"I am afraid of being detected by you, and I dare not test you, so I only hide in this gourd at the last moment, and deal with the nasty turtle. But it was negligence, now that the Great Dao has disappeared, it is difficult to cultivate as if it were to ascend to the sky, otherwise you would not have entered my ...... so easily."

The thing was full of remorse, as if it had done something very wrong. Abandon the contrary felt a little uncomfortable: "Now that you and I are all in this position, you are not mistaken, don't worry too much." ”

The object rejoiced, "Yes, yes." ”

"Sister River God, I saw you last night. Do you have a mark in your body?"

Yu'er agreed, but he didn't know when he was inspected last night.

"Your mark is who you are. Would you like me to take a closer look?"

Yu Er released the sigil, and the thing looked back and forth for a long time, and nodded: "Yes, it is indeed the red water mark." Chishui, but I've been there. ”

"You say I'm the god of the Chishui River, but I've never been to the Chishui, how did I do that? Besides, how can there be so many gods in this world, but I don't believe it. ”

Abandon remembered the situation in the Dead Sea again, and wanted to talk to Yu'er, telling her that there might be gods in this world, but she didn't open her mouth in the end.

"There is a three-beaded jade tree on the bank of the Chishui River, and there is an ancient shrine under the tree, if you can go, you will see. It's just that I don't know if the tree and the shrine are still there?" the thing was very confident, "If you don't believe it, there is another way, try it." ”

"Do you want me to dredge this view of the water for you?" Yu Er Bingxue was smart, and guessed, "What do you want me to do?"

"You come with me. "And the thing flew up, and went down, and went into the sand. Yu Er didn't know what to do, but the thing came out of the sand more than ten zhang away, signaling Yu Er to go over.

"This is the old way underneath here, and there is still information about our people. Can you bring water? and pour some of it into the sand. ”

He took away the gourd, and poured some water in the sand. The sand was extremely hot, and the clear water turned into white gas in an instant.

"You condense this water with the power of the sigil and let it drill down. Yu Er drove his mind according to what he said, and the water vapor really condensed into a stream, like a small snake burrowing into the ground. The thing was overjoyed, and both Yu'er and Abandonment felt incredible.

"You let it find the confluence of the remnants of the old way. Yu Er continued to drive the water vapor, and after a while, the thing said to Son, "Look at it, how much water is there now?"

Yu'er's heart moved, and the water vapor rushed out of the sand, and it was several feet long.

The thing couldn't help but be overjoyed, and threw an object at Yu'er's feet with a snap, and it actually came out of the throat bone. I saw a small fish with red lips and white head and black pattern appearing in the air, dragging its long tail, shaking its head and flapping its wings to look at Yu Er and Abandonment. The two of them couldn't believe that this was the old-fashioned monster just now.

The little fish circled the air three times, and then it burrowed into the water vapor, and entered the sand with the water vapor.

Although the fish is small, the water vapor is like the nail that drills into the ground. With the help of the little fish, only a stick of incense, when the water vapor rushed out of the sand again, it was already the thickness of an arm, a zhang long, and the little fish jumped up and down in the water vapor, indescribably happy and cute.

Yu Er had the heart to help him, so that this water qi continued to penetrate deeper and deeper.

Just when she was sweating and exhausted, there was a rumbling sound in the sand like a huge wheel rolling over, and I saw a column of water rushing up to the sky, which actually drilled through the underground current, forming a fountain under the huge pressure.

The little fish jumped out of the spring, and the sun shone brilliantly around it, as if it bowed to Yu'er, and then pierced the spring and disappeared. I could only hear the sound of rumbling water underground, but it led me to the ancient river channel, and gradually disappeared.

After resting for a while, Yu Er suddenly remembered something, and used his mental power to guide the subterranean water in the direction of the rusty iron rod. The rusty iron rod at the bottom of the well originally had a small water vein to communicate with this underground flow, but half a month ago, it was blocked by the earth and stone dam that was shaken down. When the water of the subterranean flow is flushed, it is very easy to pass.

Yu Er picked up the old cow's throat bone and thought: Could this be the thing that the little fish thanked me?

The bones were so warm and soft that they looked like living things, glowing with a faint golden glow in the sun.

When you look closely, there are seven small holes in this bone, and one of them is slightly larger in the middle, which is where the little fish stretches out its wings. Yu Er pressed her fingers on several of the holes, and in the breeze, the bones whined like a baby's cry, as if looking for her mother.

Yu Er's heart was moved, and she gently picked it up like a baby and rubbed it on her cheek, but found that there was the word "folded halberd" on it.

A piece of laryngeal bone has a name?

She likes music since she was a child, but she feels that this bone is very similar to the musical instrument of her hometown, so she fiddles with this bone according to the Bohuang method, and the breath enters the inside, turning a thousand times, there is a faint pharyngeal music flowing out, and she has heard the mortal instrument a thousand times.

The song "Folding Willows", but the abandonment was full of tears and shame, which was exactly the flute he heard at night.

The underground current was extremely turbulent, and in a short time it filled the big pit under the dune, and a pool was still bubbling out. Yu'er seemed to see that this place would soon be an oasis of life, and saw the rusty iron rod smiling in the wind......

At this moment, the canopy suddenly went dark. The "broken halberd" sensed the change in the air flow and let out a howl. The two of them looked up and saw that a sky-high wall of sand was rushing from the direction of the Dead Sea, but it was a hurricane in the sea of sand.

The two hurriedly boarded the seesaw, but before they could sit down, the wind had already reached their eyes.

In the dust, the two of them leaned down and lay on the stilt, put their hands and feet into the leather rope on the car and tied it, and let the car dripping and rolling in the wind.

Finally, the wind stopped.

The two of them peeled off a thick layer of floating sand on their bodies and got out of the car. When they saw the other party's unkempt and embarrassed appearance, they all laughed.

The supplies tied to the back of the car had long been missing, so they discerned the direction, and the gust of wind actually blew the two of them out of the southeast direction for a hundred and ten miles.

According to the mother-in-law, this sea of sand is shaped like a crescent moon, and now turning to the northeast should be the fastest way to get out of this desert, but I don't know how much distance there is left. Fortunately, there is plenty of water in the gourd. The two of them cheered up, stepped on the seesaw, and walked all the way.

After walking for half a day, the yellow sand everywhere still seems to have no end. Looking at the sunset, Yu Er remembered the extremely cold weather last night, and now that her clothes were lost, how she could survive it, and couldn't help but be secretly anxious.

"Rest for a while, I'll go and have a look. He stopped the seesaw and headed for a huge sand dune ahead.

Fang rested for a moment, and Yu'er suddenly heard a shout of "ah" on the ridge of the mound, and disappeared.

Didn't you encounter some monster again? Yu Er panicked in her heart, and ran up the sand dunes in three steps and two steps.

Before she reached the top, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out in the sand and pulled her down with a "bang".

Yu Er was startled and was about to resist, but found that the person was not abandoned, with a strange expression, he raised his finger to the tree to his mouth, signaled Yu Er to be quiet, and squeezed his eyebrows and told Yu Er to look across the sand dunes.

Yu'er was worried in her heart, she didn't know what was going on, when she raised her eyes tremblingly, there was a sea of grass under the hill that was green and could not be seen, and the breeze under the sunset was like a big hand, bringing up a golden soft light, startling countless babbling birds, it turned out that the two had reached the boundary of this sea of sunken sand. Looking back, he had already rolled down the dune, leaving only a long laugh behind him.

"But you lied to me, you wait......! You're a pig's head. ”
