The firelight lit up the beach, the deep water surface was also reflected in the red light, the flames of the bonfire were stirring wantonly, and the faces were roasted warmly, and after a while, this warmth hit the whole body, and a few wet people finally eased up.

Zhang Xuefeng beckoned the fake mercenaries to distribute food to everyone, and when he passed by the fire, the black bull said to me sourly: "Lao Su, it seems that in this big desert, if we want to get out alive, we have to rely on ourselves, what fucking allies, all of them are the masters of each family!" You are desperate to save irrelevant people, but what about the accomplices who keep claiming to be brothers? Not only did you not go into the water, but you also waited to see you die? ”

Hei Niu's words were heard by Zhang Xuefeng, and also by the sixth master and others. This was to be expected, so I advised him to say less.

Zhang Xuefeng sneered, threw the dried naan to us across the fire, and said as it should be: "Count on who saves whom!" On this trip to the sand sea, everyone is destined for peace! ”

The sixth master broke the dried naan and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it slowly, and persuaded with a smile: "Officer Zhang said that he was joking, now, how can we divide each other!" However, I still say the same thing, Brother Su is chivalrous and courageous, and the old man is indeed admired, but the Hades Palace has not been found yet, so we don't need to spoil the plan for an inconsequential person! Fortunately, you are fine, otherwise, the old man will be heartbroken, and he will want to jump into the river and go with you! ”

I sneered, poured the boiling water into the aluminum filtered water cup, and slowly took a few sips, the warmth rushing from my throat to my abdomen, and my spirits were lifted. I opened my mouth and said, "This is the end of the matter, there is no intention to say more!" I haven't saved people, but the road ahead is long, everyone has a good destiny, or work together, in short, be careful! ”

Recalling that the man in black was inexplicably dragged towards the center of the river with great force just now, thinking of the huge and boundless space that I vaguely saw at the bottom of the river, and thinking of Gao Moli's sword swing underwater, I faintly felt that in the depths of this desert, there was a mysterious and terrifying power hidden.

This ancient river channel, like a haunting swimming dragon, suddenly emerges from the stratification of the sand sea and winds its way through the desert. If expected, the icy water in this large river should be caused by the melting of the snow water of the Tianshan Mountains. In late spring and early summer, when the snow melts and rainfall in the desert peaks, it is only at this time that this dark river, which should be hidden under the desert, will surface for a short time, forming a spectacular river in the sea of sand.

The bottom of the river is unfathomable, and the underwater space is surprisingly large, and I wonder if the huge cavity will still exist after the river returns to the ground. If it still exists, then why hasn't it been discovered for hundreds or thousands of years?

Or did it only appear when the river returned to the surface?

The expression of the man in black who was extremely distorted and deformed because of horror when he was dying always felt extremely familiar, I had seen it somewhere, and more than once!

I wanted to share my doubts with everyone, but in front of me, most of them were tired and fragile, and what I doubted was likely to cause a panic in the crowd.

Gu Yixin wrung out the water from her hair, wiped it with a blanket, leaned closer to the fire, and the blazing fire reflected on her scattered black hair, like a volcanic waterfall flowing with red flames, soft and magnificent! I was grateful to her for jumping into the river to save her, and I wanted to say thank you, but after thinking about it, I swallowed back the words that came to my mouth.

She is like a mystery to me, she is obviously not Gu Yixin, but sometimes, I think she is Gu Yixin. It's a complicated feeling, but I can almost conclude that at this stage, she has no intention of harming me!

Gu Yixin was like an arrogant leader, waiting for her hair to dry a little, she stood up, clapped her hands, gathered everyone together, and said in an unquestionable tone: "This ancient river channel has finally been found, we are getting closer and closer to the Hades Palace, everyone will rest here for a few hours tonight, replenish the water source, and continue to advance along the river in the second half of the night!" ”

And they were commanded to disperse, or to replenish water in their skins, or to set up camp. After a short period of effort, two more blazing bonfires were burning, and the running for days had made everyone tired, and finally got a chance to rest, and after eating the dried naan, everyone dispersed, and lay down and fell asleep around the three piles.

Gao Moli had been silent since he dragged me out of the river, sitting quietly by the fire, I looked at him several times, and from his seemingly calm expression, I saw a faint uneasiness.

When the copper pith sword comes out, you will see the blood back to the sheath! Before, at the bottom of the river, if it wasn't for the crisis situation, Gao Moli would definitely not easily pull out the copper marrow sword, he had something to hide, or, he had no intention of hiding it, but he didn't know what was going on.

Everyone had already fallen asleep, and the black bull was snoring, and I threw a few branches of poplar trees into the fire, and the sparks burst out, and the flames of the bonfire burst out in an instant, and roasted all around.

Gao Mo and I sat next to each other, and the flames fluttered, and his shadow swayed on the sand, majestic and mysterious.

He looked at me and said faintly: "The legend of the Demon River, perhaps, is not groundless. ”

I was stunned by his sudden words, the Uyghur guide had warned us that this kind of river that appeared out of thin air in the desert was a demon river, and it would drag people and animals that approached it into hell! Now Gao Moli said that this kind of legend is not groundless, it seems that he has indeed discovered something! I was surprised and asked, "Why do you say that?" What do you see at the bottom of the river? ”

Gao Moli glanced at the calm surface of the river, which reflected the firelight, and frowned slightly: "Extremely dangerous thing!" This kind of thing, beyond my understanding! ”

He paused and asked me, "Don't you think that dead man's expression is familiar?" ”

I nodded in response, "Familiar!" I felt as if I had seen this kind of distorted expression with wide-eyed eyes and wide-open mouth, but where had I seen it? ”

"It's in the desert." Gao Moli was still staring at the surface of the lake and said, "Those dried corpses dug up, their expressions are the same as his!" It's as if I saw something terrible before I died! ”
