Chapter 170: Into the Desert
"Not a good guy?"
"Then you have to be careful!"
"When it comes to figuring out people's hearts, then I really can't help you, you can only rely on yourself!"
"Alright! It's hard! Old Qin, you are busy first, I'll go upstairs and rest for a while..."
"Go ahead!"
Ling Feng stretched his waist, he was so tired lately...
Every time I browse other people's memories, although it hasn't actually been long, the time in the Gate of the Dark Eye is extremely long, especially the one in Sha Luoyan, which lasted for two thousand years, and in reality, a full seven days have passed......
This night, Ling Feng slept for three days and three nights.
He hadn't eaten or drunk for so long, and he didn't feel hungry or thirsty.
Ling Feng didn't think it was strange, after all, his body was about to turn into Hei Gu Tai Sui.
If you continue like this, you may not have to eat but gnaw copper!
Early in the morning of the fourth day, Ling Feng got up and went downstairs, Zhang Qingsheng and Bai Tong were eating takeout.
"Ling Feng, you can really sleep! Come on, let's have a bite to eat! ”
Zhang Qingsheng said.
"I'm not hungry, eat it!"
"Huh? Not hungry? After sleeping for three days and three nights, you still say you're not hungry? Bai Tong looked surprised.
"Are you ready?"
"All right!" Zhang Qingsheng pointed to the three large backpacks piled up in the corner.
"Good! Hurry up and eat, and we'll go! ”
"Huh? So anxious! Zhang Qingsheng and Bai Tong shouted at the same time.
"I had a dream, today is an auspicious day for travel, miss today, no matter which day you go, it will be ominous!"
“…”
"Okay!"
"Count you ruthless!"
Ling Feng familiarized himself with the supplies they had prepared for Zhang Qingsheng.
The three of them rented an off-road vehicle, and after saying goodbye to Qin Ming and Liang Wenhao, they officially set off.
Galloping all the way, they reached the shelter forest on the edge of the Gutong Desert, and it was already dark.
"Let's rest here tonight and enter the desert early tomorrow morning!"
"Ling Feng, I just remembered now, why don't we rent a OnePlus helicopter?"
"I have investigated, the magnetic field of the Gutong Desert is too strong, the navigation of the aircraft is out of order, and the sandstorms are too frequent, the plane does not dare to fly, and it has become a no-fly area!"
"Oh, I see..."
Zhang Qingsheng dispelled this thought, and immediately began to set up a tent.
In order to save space and get some more necessary supplies, they only took one tent, and this tent may not be useful in the desert.
The three of them set up tents and lit bonfires.
Simply ate dinner and looked at the night sky above the Gutong Desert.
"Did you notice a strange phenomenon?" Bai Tong looked puzzled.
"What phenomenon?" Zhang Qingsheng asked.
"There doesn't seem to be a single star in the sky above this Ancient Pupil Desert, and it's extremely dark..."
"It seems to be true!"
Zhang Qingsheng carefully observed for a while.
"Because the Ancient Pupil Desert is black, black absorbs light, so the Ancient Pupil Desert area is much darker than other places, as for why there are no stars in this night sky, it may be that the light reflected by the stars is blocked!" Ling Feng explained.
"The desert is still black?" Zhang Qingsheng asked in surprise.
"Lao Zhang, didn't you do your homework before you left?" Bai Tong teased.
"Don't call me Lao Zhang, you're thousands of years old!"
"Xiao Zhang..."
"Wait, you still call me Lao Zhang!"
"You two talk first, I'll go sleep for a while, there are wolves around here, don't be clever either!"
Ling Feng felt a wave of fatigue welling up, got up and got into the tent...
Zhang Qingsheng and Bai Tong looked at the small eyes with big eyes.
"Has he been particularly sleepy lately?"
"It seems to be..."
"What did he say before he went into the tent?"
"He said there were wolves nearby..."
“…”
“…”
"Wolves!"
The two of them hurriedly got up and looked around warily.
Ahh
"I'm X! What a pack of wolves! ”
"What should I do?"
"It's okay, it should be far away to listen to..."
"That's good..."
The two of them were back to back, watching out for movement around them.
In the second half of the night, Ling Feng came out of the tent.
"You two go to sleep!"
Zhang Qingsheng and Bai Tong's eyelids fought, but they never dared to fall asleep.
"Good..."
"I'm trapped..."
The two of them went into the tent one after another, and fell asleep in the blink of an eye.
Bai Tong's sleeping posture is still strange, but the tent can't be caught, so it can only be tightly wrapped around Zhang Qingsheng.
This is also the fundamental reason why Ling Feng would rather keep vigil by himself.
After a long time, the moon had faded, and it was the pre-dawn darkness.
Thundered...
Suddenly there was a loud bang, and then the ground began to shake.
Ling Feng stood up suddenly, a solemnity flashing in the depths of his eyes.
"This voice... It's exactly the same as the sound of the caverns, could it be the vines? What the hell are they? ”
"That's..."
As soon as Ling Feng's words fell, he saw that on the edge of the desert, along the protective forest, there were suddenly countless black shadows swaying, like a group of demons dancing wildly......
It lasted for a long time, and as the sky gradually brightened, the black shadow turned into black sand and disappeared completely.
The first rays of sunlight shone in, and Ling Feng shouted to the two of them.
"Pack your things and go into the desert..."
Ling Feng first picked up his backpack and walked in front to lead the way, while Zhang Qingsheng and Bai Tong put away the tent and followed him closely.
"Ling Feng, which way should we go?" Zhang Qingsheng asked puzzled.
"Today we will walk eight miles west during the day, and we will not go any more."
"Huh? Why? Bai Tong was even more puzzled.
"There are a few lines of poetry about how to go, you should think about it carefully..."
"The sun rises and walks eight miles, and the white sand does not treat each other; The sun sets, and the night sand dances in the sky. ”
"Oh..."Bai Tong looked dazed.
Zhang Qingsheng quickly reacted...
"Ling Feng, that's not right! Listening to this poem, it should mean to walk eight miles to the east! Why are we going west now? Zhang Qingsheng asked puzzled.
Ling Feng smiled, "Since even you have realized it, it means that everyone can understand this superficial meaning, so why are there so few people who go deep into the desert?" ”
"Am I not human?" White Hitomi muttered to herself.
"Bai Tong, I don't blame you, my father didn't leave your IQ to you, but he left words..."
"What?"
"Don't doubt what you see, don't believe what you hear, don't limit what you think..."
"Don't believe what you heard, and with the virtues of those people, I decided to do the opposite!"
"That is, go eight miles west during the day, and return a thousand feet east in the evening!"
"However, I also have an element of gambling, let's take one step at a time!"
Ling Feng lifted his backpack up and continued to head west into the desert.
Originally, Zhang Qingsheng thought that it was a little bit less to walk eight miles during the day, but as he went deeper, he found that he was exhausted after walking down eight miles.
Because I didn't step on the black sand, it was like stepping on the snow, and the black sand didn't reach my knees.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the Ancient Pupil Desert is not hot, but a little cold.
At first, everyone felt that it was an unexpected surprise.
However, as I went deeper, I felt more and more eerie...
