Chapter Eighty-Six: Yellow Sand

Duckweed, Xuanniao and Xiaowa all fell silent together, if it was really as they thought, Xihe lived in Buzhou Mountain.

It would be much more troublesome to find Xihe than originally thought. It's just that the breath of Baizhu is already faint and almost inaudible, and he relies on duckweed and Xuanniao to send him spiritual power in rotation every day to survive.

If you can't find Xihe anymore, there is really no hope at all.

Duckweed's mood in the past few days is simply depressed, she has been thinking about all the clues about Buzhou Mountain and Xihe over and over again, but she is still chaotic and has no clue.

Buzhou Mountain is a very famous mountain in ancient times, but at some point, it has disappeared from people's vision.

Northwest, overseas, in the corner of the great wilderness, there are mountains but not together, and the name is not good. Where is this? And now the northwest is full of desert and yellow sand, and where does the sea come from?

They have traveled to the yellow sandy area, and the world thinks that where there is a desert, it must be very hot, but in fact, in the desert, it will snow.

Although the snow is only a thin layer on the yellow sand, it is only a shallow layer, but it is more freezing than the snow in other places.

Xiaowa looked at the endless yellow covered with light white snowcoats, and couldn't help but worry: "Sister, this place is really cold, and it is so flat, how can there be mountains?"

Xuanniao sighed slightly, as if he was very reluctant to accept a certain reality, and said: "But according to the direction recorded in the ancient books, this place is indeed the most in line with the description of the Northwest Wilderness, but there is no sea here. ”

"Xihe is the goddess of the sun, even if she doesn't want to be, she is also the mother who gives birth to the light and heat of all things. I don't know if you've ever heard the story of the drought?" duckweed suddenly felt the strangeness of this coldness at some point, but his face was calm, and there was a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he had found a way out of the problem.

"What is a drought?" asked the little baby, tilting her little head, puzzled.

Duckweed smiled and explained: "Dry Fish is the daughter of the Yellow Emperor, and I heard that she used to be Xihe's favorite apprentice. When the Yellow Emperor and the Chiyou tribe were fighting, Chiyou invited Fengbo and Yushi, and there was bitter wind and rain everywhere, and the Yellow Emperor's army was lost in the wind and rain. So, he went and begged his beloved daughter to come to the world to help him. There is a very powerful light and heat in the body of the drought fish, and she has indeed driven away the miserable wind and rain for her father, but it has also depleted her spiritual power, and she can never return to the heavens. ”

"What happened later?" the little baby was listening attentively, and when she saw that duckweed was talking intermittently, she hurriedly urged.

"Later. Duckweed smiled slightly, and then continued, "Later, there will be a great drought in the place where she is. When she drove away the miserable rain of the Chiyou tribe, people would have praised her and sang her praises. But when the drought happened, everyone spat on her and resented her. The Yellow Emperor drove her to the northwest, so people always say that this desert in the northwest is where the drought fish lived after being driven out of the Central Plains by the Yellow Emperor. ”

Xiaowa thought for a while, suddenly realized, and said excitedly: "What does my sister mean is that this drought is Xihe's apprentice, so after Xihe was disappointed in the world, he came to the northwest to find his apprentice?"

Duckweed shook her head and replied, "No, the marble is already dead. Although she has some divine power, she is only a human being after all, even if she has some immortal fate and loses her spiritual power, she can only live for more than a hundred years in the world. ”

"What the master means is that this drought is just a human with some light and heat, and it can still make the land where it lives drought, so if Xihe lives here, then the formation of this desert is not surprising. Xuanniao said with a frown.

Duckweed nodded and agreed: "With the power of Xihe, I'm afraid it's not difficult for the sea to turn into a mulberry field." It's just that the sea has also turned into a desert, which is really terrible. Xihe must be in this desert, and I already vaguely feel her power. ”

For a while, duckweed, Xuanniao and Xiaowa were silent. In today's situation, going to Xihe for help is like gambling.

There are too many unknowns and dangers, Xuanniao couldn't help but open her mouth and propose: "Master, this Xihe Goddess doesn't know what the origin is, if we can't find her, or if she refuses to help us, then Baizhu is not hopeless." Why don't we go back to find the Queen Mother of the West now, right? The Queen Mother spoils the master so much, as long as the master speaks, she will definitely save Baizhu. ”

It wasn't that duckweed didn't think of this, but as soon as she thought of Zhu Yan's resentful and painful eyes when she mentioned the Queen Mother of the West, and the disappointment and sadness when Bai Zhu mentioned the Queen Mother of the West, she couldn't go back to the Queen Mother of the West no matter what.

Even if the Queen Mother of the West would really help Baizhu regardless of her previous suspicions, Baizhu would definitely be unwilling.

She really didn't want Baizhu to come back to life and find that she was saved by the person she hated the most.

The duckweed shook her head resolutely, and walked towards the depths of the yellow sand.

"Sister, wait for me. Xiaowa hurriedly followed.

"Master, this Baishu is too heavy, you wait for me. Seeing that the duckweed was resolute, Xuanniao knew that there was no room for negotiation in this matter, so he hurriedly dragged Baizhu's still unconscious body and chased after him.

The yellow sand is long, and the thin layer of snow clothes immediately melts into the yellow sand when you step on it, as if it has never existed.

Here, duckweed can no longer use spiritual power to fly against the clouds. She was in this desert, and she could feel a very strong and ancient spiritual power.

They must have found the right place, she thought.

However, she was a little skeptical of her previous inference. For a few days, she swore that this Xihe must have lived in Buzhou Mountain, and there were often immortal mountains in the sea, so it was completely established that Xihe was in Buzhou Mountain, and Buzhou Mountain was in the barren sea.

Now, this slowly yellow sand, as far as the eye can see, there is not a trace of the mountain. Not to mention mountains, even the taller trees are invisible.

A demon, an immortal, and a god who was about to die trekked in the yellow sand for a long time, but still found nothing. Duckweed even tried to use spiritual power to attract Xihe to appear, but she almost played all the most powerful spells she could play, and she still didn't see half a figure.

The little baby is not like duckweed and Xuanniao, she doesn't need to drink water, she doesn't need to eat, and she doesn't feel hungry and thirsty, even if Xuanniao prepares a lot of water and food for her in advance. In this desert, she still felt so tired and thirsty that she could almost fall asleep as soon as she closed her eyes. Therefore, it is often Xiaowa who takes care of Baizhu in a relatively safe place, while duckweed and Xuanniao are centered on this place, searching for traces of Xihe.

What I said at the beginning was really right, people, compared with fairies and demons, are too fragile.
