Chapter 12: Crisis Desert
"What, 3,000 pieces? Just told me how to get there, and no other requirements! Lin Xi looked at the guide in front of him in disbelief.
After separating from Ryuse, he found a guide who could help him guide him through a local's introduction.
But when the guide learned about the village that Lin Xi wanted to go to, the lion opened his mouth and asked for a reward of 3,000 yuan just for pointing the way.
Lin Xi thought about the balance in his card and asked.
"Hmph," the male-looking guide sneered, "Love to go?" At the price of 3,000, I'm not afraid to tell you that in the entire Persian Gulf region, except for the people in that village, it is estimated that only I dare to show you the way. ”
"Are you kidding me, just showing the way, what dare you dare?" Hearing the guide's words, Lin Xi seemed to think of something and hurriedly asked.
"Because of a demon," the guide said in a cold voice, looking directly into Lin Xi's eyes.
Lin Xi: "Xuanyue?" The name of this Lucifer is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people! Although the guide tried his best to hide it, the tremor in his voice could still be felt.
"You say there's a demon, so how dare you show me the way?" Lin Xi asked.
"Me? Anyway, I don't have a few days to live, what's so scary. The man said with some ease. Are you going or not? Pay when you go, don't grind here. ”
……
After transferring the money to the guide, Lin Xi got information about the village.
As he left, Lin glanced at the guide who was still standing in the market. The arm hanging from the cuff was wrapped in a thick layer of cloth, but it could still be seen, and the trace of blood that was revealed would tremble from time to time.
"Xuanyue, is your plan really perfect? What about the innocent people who gave their lives in the process, they can't be resurrected. In the future, will they really have to be sacrificed? ”
……
In the hot desert, a figure slowly walked from a distance, it was Lin Xi who was on the road alone.
Looking at the scorching sun overhead, I checked again, and there was only half a pot of water left in my backpack. Lin Xi regretted it very much at this time.
After learning the route from the guide, he first found a stall to rent camels, but when he saw the high cost of renting camels, he decided to dismiss the idea.
He thought that with his tenfold physique, he only needed to bring some drinking water. However, Lin Xi far underestimated the horror of the desert, and after only half the journey, he was already exhausted, and there was not much water left.
"What a regret! Why don't I follow Xiaoxue's rich woman, otherwise I wouldn't have to suffer this sin. Lin Xi's lips were already chapped due to lack of water, and he swallowed hard, but there was only a smell of rust. Hold on for a while, this time will consume the last water resources, but you really can't get out of the desert! ”
Exposed to the reflective sand, the unbearable high temperature, Lin Xi's figure gradually faded away......
I don't know how long it took, but something seemed to fall on the yellow sand......
A kettle......
……
The footsteps became lighter and lighter, and everything in front of me seemed to spin and blur......
Finally, there seemed to be a touch of turquoise in front of him, and finally he couldn't support it, and his feet were soft, and he fell on the yellow sand.
……
"Water... Water..."A weak voice rang out in the small cabin.
It was as if someone had heard the movement, pushed open the door and walked in.
Then, a stream of sweetness flowed into his mouth, his chapped lips were instantly soaked, and the smell of rust in his throat gradually dissipated, and Lin Xi fell into a deep sleep again.
"Alas," someone sighed, it was an old voice, and the door opened again, and the footsteps gradually faded away.
The chalet was calm again.
……
"Am I there for me?" Lin Xi got up and looked around, there was only one chair left in the simple wooden house except for a bed.
At this moment, an old figure walked in, and time left a tortuous mark on the old man's face, giving her an extraordinary mission.
"You wake up, the children of the village have found you in the desert, and when you are well rested, leave it, outsiders are not welcome in this village." The old man's voice carried a tone of inability to resist.
The old man said that he was about to leave.
Lin Xi hurriedly stopped the old man, "Wait a minute, Priest Mother-in-law, I came to find you, I brought news from the ancient Silan royal family." ”
"What?" The old man's steps stopped abruptly, as if he had heard something unbelievable.
"Young man, do you know what you're talking about?" This time, the old man's tone had become cold, and at the same time, Lin Xi felt an extraordinary aura.
He was now very sure that the seemingly ordinary old man in front of him was a real sixth sense developer, and if what he said next could not satisfy the old man, the old man would never let him leave here.
"Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow at the latest, the descendants of the royal family of Gusilan will come here, and when you see her, you will believe what I say." Lin Xi said affirmatively.
The old man looked at him deeply, "I'll wait for you to arrive the day after tomorrow, if the descendants of the royal family don't come, you will stay here forever." ”
"If the person I said hasn't come at this time the day after tomorrow, I'll leave it to you."
"Okay."
Lin Xi looked at the old man, a little hesitant, but still asked, "Has Lucifer already come?" ”
The old man didn't ask him why he knew about Lucifer, but said directly, "Yes, he has been here, he has been here for two days, and he just left three days ago." ”
Already gone? I still missed it, it seems that if you want to get the elemental needle, you have to wait until you enter the VV Academy.
"Alright, if it's okay, you can stay here! Don't leave this wooden house for these two days, and when the person you say comes, you will naturally be able to meet. The old man didn't seem to want to say much about Lucifer, so he left without waiting for Lin Xi to ask again.
Looking at the closed wooden door, Lin Xi smiled helplessly, "Okay, let's practice well in the past two days." ”
……
"8931,8932,8933......" In the quiet wooden house, only the sound of Lin Xi's slightly heavy breathing was heard.
He was doing push-ups at a very fast speed, and the sweat on the floor had formed a small puddle, and it could be seen that this amount of training was insignificant to Lin Xi now.
After all, for this tenfold physique, he almost lost his life.
Recently, when I trained, the feeling of blockage in my body became stronger and stronger. "It seems that I have reached the limit of what my physique can reach now?"
He simply stopped, sat on the floor casually, and felt the condition of his body, "Sure enough, there has been no progress in the training for the past two days. ”
It seems that the next step is not to break through by training alone.
