Chapter 222: Mirage
Qiao An and Lu Yuxin are on the road at the same time, Qiao An believes that this is beneficial, firstly, Lu Yuxin and Hao Ming are good, and they can withstand a crisis. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The second is that they have enough food and water, which also solves the crisis of their food shortage, and the third is that they have a guide, this guide does not seem to be as treacherous as Ah Feiba, maybe this guide is treacherous, but Lu Yuxin is even more treacherous, so he doesn't dare to set a trap for Lu Yuxin easily.
Jo Ann also sneaked a few glances at the guide.
The guide was scrawny, as if a gust of wind could blow him down, and his complexion was dark, and he looked like a frequent visitor to the desert, but Golden Mercury suddenly came to the guide's side.
The guide saw Mercury coming to his side, his body trembled a little, and then he looked ahead and rode a camel, and Mercury was walking, so his pace was a little slow.
Lin Qingxue was sitting on a camel and opened the scroll map, and she greeted Qiao An while looking at it.
Qiao An heard Lin Qingxue call him, so he hurriedly came over, Lin Qingxue pointed to a place in the map and said, "Look here." When Joan looked at this place, she was astonished, and the map marked that this place has been infested with strange insects since ancient times, and there are also portraits of insects on the map.
This portrait is exactly the same as the insect on the fossil that Professor Xu collected.
Joan frowned and said, "This thing is the Death Worm?" "The map marks the dangers of frequent infestation, and in the foreground, it is supposed to be the location of the Death Bug.
On this map, someone marked the location of the tower, perhaps Lu Jingxing marked it when he knew that he couldn't do it, and with this mark, Qiao An had already found his current location.
As long as they go all the way northwest, they will be able to reach the sea of flowers.
Joan didn't know how to express her feelings, ahead was the territory of the Death Bug, although this kind of bug was extremely rare or even unseen, but as soon as it appeared, it was a big trouble.
Joan looked at Mercury and saw that Mercury was exactly what the guide was saying, and the guide kept frowning, and this look at Mercury asked what made the guide unhappy.
It is very likely that this problem is related to Afba, but Afba is gone and can no longer appear in front of them.
While Qiao An was staring, Lin Qingxue pointed to the distance and said, "Look at that end." Lin Qingxue's voice was soft and urgent, and it seemed that something terrible was happening in front of her.
Qiao An hurriedly turned his head to the front, only to see a blue sea in front of him, Qiao An was a little stunned when he saw this scene, he couldn't imagine how there could be a sea in the desert.
Fishing boats are docked on the shore, and some fishermen are sitting in the boats eating lunch.
The picture was very clean, Yun Caiyao and Lu Yuxin saw this picture, they both stopped moving forward, stood in place, and enjoyed this beautiful scenery.
Mercury was a little strange, he pointed to the sea ahead and said, "What's going on?" How did you get to the beach? ”
The guide on the camel suddenly jumped off the camel and began to bow down towards the sea, as if he were praying to the gods, and he was very religious.
Summer Solstice came to the side of Golden Mercury and said, "This is not the sea, it is an illusion." "Xia Solstice is a well-informed person, and Xia Solstice must know such a picture.
Jin Mercury said incomprehensibly: "Isn't this the sea ahead?" Is it still a desert? Xia Zhi nodded and said: "The front is an illusion, if you keep walking in the direction of the sea, you will only fall into the desert, this is a mirage." ”
As soon as Jin Mercury heard the word mirage, he quickly opened his eyes wide and looked at it carefully, this was the first time he had seen a mirage in his young life.
He looked at the sea in front of him, the floating boats, and some fishermen beckoning to him, if it was a traveler trapped in the desert, he would definitely run to the sea, and the result would be to sink deeper and deeper.
The sea is a place in the opposite direction of the desert, and the desert plays the role of a television, which can only be seen, but not touched.
Jin Mercury looked at the blue sea, and his heart was inevitably a little uncomfortable, he was already exposed to the sun, although he was able to drink a few sips of water, but the water was also warm.
It was more comfortable than swimming in the sea, and he looked at the fishermen on the seashore with envy in his heart.
Yun Caiyao looked at the mirage and said, "It's the first time I've seen such a scene. Joan looked at the expressions of everyone present, they should have seen this view for the first time.
Golden Mercury looked at it, and suddenly his mouth opened wide, and he pointed to the sea and said, "Look, a black cloud suddenly appeared in the distance. ”
Sure enough, the sea was black and oppressive, and a dark cloud instantly shrouded the sea, and several dragons appeared on the sea to absorb water, and some fishing boats hurriedly went ashore to avoid this sudden rainstorm.
There was no thunder in the black oppressive clouds, and a lightning bolt pierced the sky, and in the black oppressive clouds, a long serpentine appeared, and several dragons sucked water and swept towards the serpentine.
The serpentine seemed to be flying in the sky, but it was only for a second, and the picture of the serpentine could not be seen clearly.
Lu Yuxin suddenly shouted excitedly: "That's a dragon." As soon as Qiao An heard this, she carefully recalled the picture just now, although she didn't see her true face clearly, but it was like the shape of a dragon.
Jin Mercury was dumbfounded, it was the first time he saw a mirage, and he also saw a dragon from inside the mirage, he swallowed and spitted and said, "There really are dragons in the world." ”
Xia Zhi glared at the dead fish and said, "Didn't you see the portrait of the dragon at my sister's art exhibition?" ”
Jin Mercury shook his head and said, "Your sister is a painting, not a real dragon, and now that I see this, I seem to believe in the existence of dragons." ”
The world is so big that there are no surprises, and these impossible species are unimaginable to the golden mercury back then.
His worldview had been subverted at this time, Xia Zhi looked at the sun in the sky and said, "Don't stand here stupidly now, let's hurry up." ”
Joan suddenly said, "Wait a minute, we have to decide how to go on the road ahead." ”
Zhang Xuqiu was a little puzzled, so he asked Qiao An: "Why do you want to set the road ahead?" ”
"Because ahead is the haunt of the Death Worm, which is marked on the map, and you have to be careful." Qiao An's words penetrated into the hearts of everyone present, although the probability of encountering the death bug was slim, but it was also a chance to meet it.
Lu Yuxin didn't care what Qiao An said, he said to himself: "Next time, I will go to the dragon's lair to see what the dragon looks like." ”
His expression was as hideous as ever.
