"Are you sure you're going to kill with one hit?" Ye Feihong asked.

"No, it's too big to die so easily, and I'm not afraid that it will fight me head-on, I'm afraid it will run away." Zuo Dengfeng shook his head and said.

"It's almost dawn, I'll go with you." Ye Feihong stood up straight.

"You're in charge of guarding the camels and dry food, and I'll go with Thirteen." Zuo Dengfeng pointed to the thirteenth who was stretching his waist and sticking out his tongue.

"It's okay, there are occasional horse bandits here, and I'll stay to guard the camels." Ye Feihong had seen Thirteen follow Zuo to climb the peak in the air before, and knew that Thirteen was not an ordinary big cat, the most important thing was that Thirteen had a meat pad under his feet, and he could also move quickly on the sand.

"Do you know how to shoot?" Zuo Dengfeng handed her the rifle and the hanging bullet.

"Yes." Ye Feihong took it and pulled the bolt and loaded it.

"If there is something to do, you can shoot, if it doesn't blow, I can hear the gunshots eighty miles away, and I can rush back in about forty minutes." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and calculated, he usually swept with all his strength for an hour and could sweep a straight line distance of more than three hundred miles, but in the desert, he could only cast about thirty percent, and it would take more than forty minutes to take eighty miles.

"Okay." Ye Feihong nodded in agreement.

"Don't walk around, just wait for me from here, if the situation is critical, you can abandon anything, you must save your life." Zuo Dengfeng Zhengse emphasized that the role of the camel team is the desert supply station, if there is a problem with food and drinking water, he will fall into passivity, but the most important thing is Ye Feihong, if he loses an experienced guide in the desert, it will be difficult to get out of the desert alive.

"Don't worry, I'll wait for you to come back." Ye Feihong smiled and nodded.

Zuo Dengfeng thought for a moment and didn't have anything to explain, so he got up and walked to the well to fetch water to wash his face, and then left the abandoned ancient city with Thirteen.

"Go straight north, go ten miles and go half a mile to the left." Ye Feihong followed out to see him off.

"Why go half a mile to the left?" Zuo Dengfeng asked.

"When people walk in the desert, they will unconsciously deviate to the right, and sometimes it feels like they are walking in a straight line, but in fact they have deviated to the right." Ye Feihong opened his mouth to explain.

Zuo Dengfeng nodded when he heard this, and then lifted his breath and swept northward, thirteen fast running to help, volleying into the air, like a shadow.

The terrain in the desert is not flat, the sand dunes are all over the place, the layers are stacked, after several ups and downs, the left peak can no longer see the ancient city where the camel team is located, the most important thing for people to distinguish the direction is to rely on the reference, the sand dunes in the desert are not irregular, it is easy to have an illusion when you see more, it is wrong to distinguish the north and south from the east and west to the sand dunes, the left peak squints slightly while sweeping the north, and tries to avoid the direction of the sand dunes to mislead and affect it.

It was dawn, the sun had not yet risen, and Zuo Dengfeng could faintly hear the faint chirping of insects and the rustle of snakes and lizards as they moved, the presence of these sounds indicated that the desert was not devoid of life, and that the so-called Sea of Death was only for humans.

At the same time as sweeping forward, Zuo Dengfeng's heart was not calm, he had been worried about the safety of Yufu and others, the three ninjas came to China to find the six Yang Neidan, Yufu's move was tantamount to snatching food from the tiger's mouth, and there would definitely be a conflict with the other party, if it really started fighting, it was really unpredictable who would win and who would lose, but fortunately, he and Iron Shoes had worked with the three Ninjas, and knew the spells and tricks they were good at, as long as Iron Shoes could find Yufu and others in time, the four of them would fight against the three Ninjas, The winning side should still be very large.

But this involves a very tricky issue, the Taoist temples of the Quanzhen faction and the Maoshan faction are in the occupied area, if the golden needle and silver crown do not help, the situation of the jade whisk is very dangerous, this possibility is not nothing, if from a private point of view, the two of them will definitely help, but they are all in charge of the sect, and they must be responsible for the disciples and the ancestors, if the foundation of the ancestors is destroyed because of their own personal relations, everyone has to weigh it.

There are also iron shoes, Shaolin Temple is in Henan, and now Henan is also said to occupy the area, the last time he did it in Yucheng, he just followed the foolishness, and it was not the main goal of Ape Fei Chiyo and others, if he went out to prevent himself from looking for six Yang Inner Dan for their emperor, then it was not only an enemy of the ninja, but an enemy of all the devils, whether it would be a disaster for the Shaolin Temple to be wiped out is also between the two.

"Oh, it's a mess for me." Thinking of this, Zuo Dengfeng couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, Yufu was looking for Liuyang Neidan in order to prolong his life, Yufu knew that finding Liuyang Neidan would face huge risks, but he couldn't watch the person he liked come to the end of his life, Yufu's move was undoubtedly noble, but her move not only put herself in an extremely dangerous situation, but also possibly affected her friends.

Zuo Dengfeng didn't want Yufu to burden others because of himself, but he knew very well what Yufu's temper was, if no one helped her, she would do it herself, so she would become a moth to the fire, sometimes intelligence could not make up for the lack of ability, those three ninjas were the three most powerful people in this book, and Yufu was definitely a fierce enemy.

If he were someone else, he might immediately go out to stop Jade Whisk's move, but Zuo Dengfeng didn't want to do that, because he knew that he couldn't stop Jade Whisk, and no one could watch his loved one die and stand by, and now the most appropriate way to deal with it is to deal with the matter here as soon as possible, and then rush back to the Central Plains, as long as he is in charge, those three ninjas are like shit.

In addition, there are two reasons why Zuo Dengfeng dares to stay here and not go back immediately, one is that he has not received a call for help from Yufu so far, and the other is that Yufu has a map with the location of the earthly branch in his hand, and when she is looking for Yinhu, she can look for Chenlong, so that she can stagger with Yue himself, and avoid a head-on conflict with Yu himself to the greatest extent.

Eighty miles of road is not very far for Zuo Dengfeng, half an hour later he crossed a towering sand dune, the dead forest is faintly visible, white bones began to appear on the sand, the name of the dead forest is still very appropriate, a large area of dead poplar is densely staggered erected five miles away, the poplar tree can grow very high, the front of the poplar tree is more than three zhang high, the gap between each other is also very small, from a distance like a tall and wide city wall, because the distance is still very far, Zuo Dengfeng could not determine the extent of the poplar forest and the situation in the forest.

Zuo Dengfeng stopped from here, inspecting the white bones scattered on the ground, these are of different sizes and shapes, among which there are many camel bones, and there are also some small bones that do not identify them, Zuo Dengfeng focuses on examining the large bones, trying to determine the cause of death of the camel through the color of the bones and the attachments on them, if the snake swallows the camel and spits out the bones after digestion, the bones will be white, and there will not be the slightest shreds of flesh on them, but unfortunately he was not able to check the results in the end, Because every bone here is clean and crispy, it does not rule out the possibility that the scorpions and insects ate their flesh after the camel died, and the flesh corroded over time.

After a long time, Zuo Dengfeng frowned and stood up, but he did not immediately march towards the dead forest, but circled around the periphery, he wanted to determine the scope of the dead forest and the surrounding terrain, there was only one chance, he had to plan carefully and act cautiously.

The dead forest is surrounded by a circle, where the terrain is low and relatively sheltered from the wind, and the tall poplar trees block the wind and sand, and the sand that is blocked by the poplar trees is piled up under the poplar trees, which plays a role in stabilizing the foundation of the poplar trees.

It took him nearly four hours to climb the peak in a circle, before he moved at an average speed, and did not stop, in other words, he swept a total of nearly 400 li, according to Zu Chongzhi's pi, the diameter of this poplar forest is about 100 li.

At this time, it was already noon, the temperature in the desert was very high, Zuo Dengfeng settled down in the shade of the desert to rest, his wooden box was full, the food in it was prepared when he was at the Yumen Pass, he had not moved, the supply of the camel team was the main supply, and the wooden box was his spare hand, he was thoughtful, and everything would leave a way back.

Thirteen didn't smell the braised meat that Zuo Dengfeng fed him, just scratched his water bag with his paws to signal that he wanted to drink water, Zuo Dengfeng cooled the water with Xuanyin True Qi, and then poured out water to quench its thirst, until Thirteen was full before putting down the water bag and grabbing the dry food and braised meat to eat slowly.

The previous circle search not only determined the scope and shape of the dead woods, Zuo Dengfeng also found a lot of human bones around, these bones were also very scattered, at first he didn't think much about it, thinking that it was the merchant and guide of the camel team, but after carefully examining the skull, he found that it was strange, these human skull teeth were very badly worn, only the canine teeth were a little longer than the human ones, in addition, their skulls were also smaller than human beings, and it was likely that Ye Feihong had seen the kind of animals that looked like people and monkeys.

Giant snakes, giant scorpions, and strange people were all found in this area, which means that there are at least three species in the dead forest, but the dead forest is only a hundred miles away, this area seems to be not small, but in fact it is not enough to form a complete ecosystem, so the biggest possibility is that there is a huge space underground.

Zuo Dengfeng quickly calculated the next action while eating, according to the past practice, when encountering something similar, he would definitely put a fire, no matter what it had, he would force it out, but at this time he didn't dare to act rashly, because he couldn't be sure what the consequences of setting fire would be, the Yin Fire Snake was definitely not afraid of fire, and if it couldn't kill it, it couldn't scare it, otherwise it would be useless to find it if it was scared away, in addition, the Yin Fire Snake was huge and moved quickly in the desert, and his speed in the desert was greatly affected, Surely they won't be able to catch up with the serpent.

After pondering again and again, Zuo Dengfeng chose the safest and most dangerous path, pretending to be an ordinary person walking into the dead woods, using himself as bait to lure the snake out of the hole.
