Chapter 117: War in the Desert (1)
In the long yellow sand, there were two figures walking in front of them, although the speed was very slow, and from a long distance, the speed was about the same as that of a snail. However, the two figures kept moving, never stopping.
In the vast yellow sea, there was the occasional ringing of a bell or two, and then a long, long line came out, walking in a single line towards the front.
The bell rang out like the bell of the camel in the procession.
Qiyu and Yunmeng also met such a team, they were happy to take Qiyu and them for a ride, in the process of walking, it is understood that this group of merchants is to transport the goods to the surrounding areas of Xiliang County to sell, these are ordinary people, only the person who led the team at the front is a monk of the Crystal Spirit Realm, it is said that these merchants spent a lot of money in order to invite the monk of the Crystal Spirit Realm, not only do not have to do anything every day, but also eat and drink to support him.
The monk's name was Gou Si, and he was usually pampered and instructed the merchants in everything, but these merchants were also used to this, and the monks were a very noble group of people in the eyes of ordinary people, anyway, they only asked him to protect the caravan from being violated, and the rest did not need to be done by the monk.
Yun Meng was about to have a seizure but was grabbed by Qiyu, pulled him to sit quietly on a camel, and followed the caravan towards the front.
The sand in the desert has been carried by strong winds for a long time, and has formed a shape like a wave, and wave after wave is piled up towards the front with no end in sight.
The caravan walked on this wave after wave of yellow sea, and when it was dark, they set up their tents and rested on the spot, and sometimes when they encountered dangerous places, even if they were tired of walking, they did not dare to stop and rest, even if the desert night was extremely cold, even if it was pitch black and could not see the five fingers, they had to continue walking.
If you don't go, you'll never go!
In the desert, you will occasionally see two inns open, those must not go in, those places are places where people eat people and do not spit out bones, if you enter, you will never be able to get out, it is said that the people in those inns are made of human flesh.
Slowly, the sun began to slowly lose its reach of them, and the caravan slowly climbed down from the peak of the wave to the trough of the wave.
In front of that, it was as if something was reflected and shining.
Qiyu looked over carefully, Yun Meng couldn't help but notice Qiyu's movements, looked in the direction of Qiyu, looked at it, and found that in addition to the yellow sand, it was yellow sand, so he asked, "Qiyu, what are you looking at?"
"Fourth Senior Brother, do you see the reflection there? Qiyu asked, pointing ahead.
Yun Meng looked at it more carefully and said, "No, what's wrong." ”
"Come down. Qiyu said.
Yun Meng did not hesitate and jumped down with Qiyu.
Qiyu ran to the front, stopped the caravan, and shouted, "Stop." ”
"Hurry up and get out of the way, what are you doing in the front?" Gou Si, who was sitting in front, pointed to Qiyu who was blocking in front of the caravan and scolded.
"What's wrong?" the merchant who led the caravan hurriedly ran up and asked Qiyu.
"Uncle, I saw a reflection in front of me. Qiyu pointed to the place where the light had just been reflected.
The merchant looked towards Qiyu Worth, but he didn't see anything, and said to Qiyu suspiciously, "No." ”
"Uncle, otherwise, I'll go up and investigate, if there is really no problem, let's go again. Qiyu said to the merchant.
The merchant thought for a while, and finally said decisively: "No, you are a child, if there is really someone, it is too dangerous there, so I should go." Then the merchant drew his sword, and went to thence.
"No, I'm a monk too. In a place where Gou Si couldn't see, Qiyu used crystal energy, and a faint black crystal energy emanated from his hand.
"Okay, have you finished talking, hurry up and leave when you're done, grinding and chirping, when will you be able to reach Xiliang County, it's really ......" Gou Si looked at Qiyu and the merchant who were grinding and chirping behind him with some impatience, especially when he was even more disgusted with them actually talking behind his back, and didn't let him hear it.
"Venerable Gou Daren, I also think there is a problem on it, I decided to let Qiyu go up and investigate, if there is no problem, go forward. The merchant who led the team hurriedly ran to Gou Si and said to him.
"Probe, probe a fart, where this bird doesn't, there's a ghost danger, you can't go, if you don't go, I'll go." Gou Si threatened the merchant, and after saying that, he jumped off his camel and swaggered towards the front.
The merchant looked at Qiyu, but Qiyu shook his head, indicating that there was no need to panic.
At this time, only Gou Si walked towards the front, and the caravan all stopped and stood there looking at him, it was impossible for him to go alone, because in this vast desert, even if he was a monk, it was impossible to go out, just walk in front and make a show, and let those caravans add some crystal keys to him.
Qiyu stared at the front tightly, and the merchant shouted that all the personnel took out their weapons and were fully guarded.
A strange scene happened in front of Qiyu's eyes, when Gou Si walked forward, the yellow sand that was forbidden to move suddenly and quickly flowed towards the ground, the speed of flow became faster and faster, and the range of flow became faster and faster, almost in an instant, a shape the size of a lake flowed out of the front, and the bottom of the flowing sand seemed to be a bottomless pit, no matter how it flowed, it seemed that it could not fill the pit.
"Alert ......" The merchant who led the team saw that there was an accident in front of him, and immediately shouted towards the caravan, however, as soon as the guard was over, countless arrows shot towards the caravan from the sky.
The cold arrows reflected a cold light in the blazing sun.
Poof, poof, poof......
Almost instantly, three more merchants were shot by the arrow, and another was struck in the buttocks of a camel, which ran away with a roar.
"Everyone, hurry up and hide. With that, the merchant lifted a cart and blocked the arrows that flew from above, but the sound of a sharp weapon piercing through the flesh was heard, and several more people screamed and died, and it turned out that there were arrows in their backs, and in an instant several more merchants died.
"Hey, wait for me, this goddamn ......" At this time, Gou Sicai ran back panting in shock, yelling at the caravan as he ran.
There were also some arrows shooting at him, but he was a monk of the Crystal Spirit Realm, and those arrows were blocked by him without causing him any harm.
However, the way he ran back was really embarrassing!
