Chapter 347: Ghost City of the Dead Sea
Because the well water of the ancient city on the south side of the dead forest has dried up, so the camel team must carry a large amount of dry food and water, Zuo Dengfeng's wooden box is still carried, which is enough dry food and drinking water for his own survival.
The legs and feet of the soldiers have been trained, at first they walked faster than camels, but after leaving the Gobi and entering the desert, their speed slowed down, although they had leggings, the sand would not run into the shoes, but walking in the desert is still a deep foot and a shallow foot, the sand in the desert is not the same, some places are very soft, some places are relatively hard, when they encounter a good place to travel a little faster, they can not go far when they encounter soft sand for an hour, and these people obviously do not have the habit of surviving in the desert, I don't know how to avoid poisonous snakes and poisonous scorpions hiding under the sand, bites often happen, once bitten or stung, I will die, Zuo Dengfeng saw this and had to let Thirteen open the way in front,
Zuo Dengfeng is not harsh on these soldiers, does not urge them to hurry, they will rest once in a while, food and drinking water can also keep up, so that everyone's impression of him gradually changed, but unfortunately they don't know what Zuo Dengfeng is thinking in his heart, more than 200 people have to consume a lot of food and drinking water every day, and the water carried by camels is only enough to support the round trip, these soldiers do not know moderation, they shout to drink water when they are thirsty, and the consequence can only send themselves to death,
In the first few days, Zuo Dengfeng was still at the end of the team, and three days later he walked in front, at this time there was no need to prevent deserters and falling behind, the camel team had entered the sea of death, and falling behind meant death,
Lop Nur in autumn is very cold at night, the temperature is more than 30 degrees lower than during the day, these soldiers are wearing autumn clothes, and at night they are shivering from the cold, and there is no fire in the desert to keep warm, Zuo Dengfeng let them gather around the camels to keep warm, at this time there will be a situation of stealing dry food and drinking water, Zuo Dengfeng naturally found this, but he did not stop it,
On the night of the sixth day, everyone rested on the back of the dune, and more than a dozen people died in non-combat attrition along the way, all of whom were bitten and stung to death by poisonous snakes and poisonous scorpions.
"If it goes well, we can rush to the ancient city tomorrow." Ye Feihong Chong Zuo Dengfeng said,
Zuo Dengfeng nodded when he heard this, he didn't speak much along the way, he had been worried that the Yin Fire Snake would leave the dead forest,
"The remaining dry food and water were not enough, so they went out." Ye Feihong said in a low voice,
"Heaven can do evil, but you can't live if you do it yourself." Zuo Dengfeng said calmly,
"Where are you going when you're done here?" Ye Feihong paused for a moment to ask again,
"Go back where you come from." Zuo Dengfeng replied that the Yin Tuniu was taken away by Jiang Ziya, and Jiang Ziya's territory Qi was in his hometown of Shandong.
"Oh." Ye Feihong let out a meaningless oh,
"Everything on the second camel is for you, and you can live wherever you want." Zuo Dengfeng said out loud, he knew what Ye Feihong meant by his words, but he wouldn't take her with him,
"I don't know where to go, I don't know anyone, or I'll go with you, let's be neighbors." Ye Feihong said with a smile,
"Do you want to go to the underworld and be my neighbor?" Zuo Dengfeng smiled bitterly and shook his head,
"What do you mean, what are you thinking, tell me about it." Ye Feihong asked, Zuo Dengfeng was a mystery in her heart, she had never seen someone who didn't speak for a few days,
"What do you want to know?" Zuo Dengfeng turned his head and asked, Ye Feihong rarely bothered him along the way, and he was hurt tragically not long ago, so he couldn't bear to refuse her question,
"Tell me about you, anything." Ye Feihong saw that the wind was loose at Zuo Dengfeng's mouth, and his face suddenly showed joy,
"Okay, if you want to know, I'll tell you, when I was very young, my father went to sea and drowned, my mother pulled me and my two sisters, and when I grew up, I found a job in the cultural institute, but I didn't have long eyes and kicked the leader's ass, and was sent to the mountains to guard the Taoist temple, in the Taoist temple I met a woman, and became close to her, and then we saved Thirteen, at that time it had just escaped from the ancient tomb, very weak." Zuo Dengfeng recalled and said,
"And then." Ye Feihong's eyes widened and waited for the following,
"Later, I came to the Taoist temple to catch thirteen, my wife died in order to save me, after she died, I found the magic left in the Taoist temple, and practiced the spell to avenge her, and later learned that six of the twelve earth branches of the Yin earth branch of the Inner Dan may be able to save her, so in the past four years I have been looking for six Yin earth branches everywhere, so far I have found four of them, and there are still two missing." Zuo Dengfeng lay back on the sand dunes, looking up at the starry night sky,
"It's over." Ye Feihong was slightly disappointed, what Zuo Dengfeng said was too general, three words, completely perfunctory,
"In the process of looking for the Inner Dan of the Earth Branch, I met a female Taoist priest, she was very good to me, and went to find the Inner Dan of the six Yang Branches without telling me, trying to prolong my life, but I encountered danger, and the last time I left in a hurry was to go to Shaanxi to save her." Zuo Dengfeng sighed and spoke,
"I see, did you save her?" There was no jealousy in Ye Feihong's words, she knew that she didn't even have the qualifications to be jealous, Zuo Dengfeng felt very happy to be able to say a few words to her like this,
"You're not smart." Zuo Dengfeng smiled bitterly and shook his head, the smart woman should have guessed that he didn't save Yufu when she saw him sighing,
"Aren't you alive and well now, why does she want to prolong your life." Ye Feihong was not angry, Zuo Dengfeng said that she was not smart,
"I've done too many bad things and lost my life." Zuo Dengfeng replied casually,
"Are you okay with that female Taoist?" Ye Feihong asked curiously,
"What do you mean by 'well'?" Zuo Dengfeng asked rhetorically,
"It's a cave house, isn't it?" Ye Feihong asked with a smile,
"Nope." Zuo Dengfeng shook his head and replied,
"Your wife has been dead for more than four years, and you don't want a woman." Ye Feihong was surprised,
"I'm really convinced of you, you're really not an ordinary person." Zuo Dengfeng looked at Ye Feihong helplessly, it had only been seven or eight days, and the shadow in her heart had dispersed really quickly.
"Say, do you want to?" Ye Feihong likes to see Zuo Dengfeng's helpless expression,
Zuo Dengfeng closed his eyes when he heard this, and no longer paid attention to her, he liked to talk calmly, when he spoke quickly, he felt irritable as soon as his voice was high,
"Oh, I see, you have practiced eunuch kung fu like Feng Si." Ye Feihong had a look of sudden realization,
"You're really not very good." Zuo Dengfeng refuted helplessly, Ye Feihong's words undoubtedly forced him to speak, and he couldn't help but explain, no man wants to be said to be a eunuch,
"You're not a eunuch." Ye Feihong joked, she has been with Zuo Dengfeng for a long time, she has found that Zuo Dengfeng is not terrible, not only is it not terrible, but her heart is very soft.
"It's not." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and spoke,
"Then what if you want a woman." Ye Feihong rarely met Zuo Dengfeng and opened his mouth, and directly bit and asked,
"Hold on." Zuo Dengfeng finally got annoyed and stood up straight,
"It's a pity that I don't have a clean place on my body, otherwise I would serve you, anything." Ye Feihong laughed and said, in fact, she was not as careless as she appeared, she was moved by Zuo Dengfeng to help her take revenge, and even more moved by Zuo Dengfeng who left her a large amount of gold and silver, but she had nothing to repay Zuo Dengfeng, which made her very depressed, and laughing was just a means to hide her frustration,
"If the man who touched you is still alive, you can't think so, but they are dead, you will still be clean when they die, don't ...... in the future" Zuo Dengfeng said here and stopped abruptly, he found that a huge building complex appeared twenty miles away due north, due to the unknown night and the distance, he couldn't see the outline and shape clearly, but what he could be sure of was that the huge building complex did not exist before,
"What's wrong?" Ye Feihong saw Zuo Dengfeng stop to look north, and then stood up, but she didn't have night vision, so she couldn't see anything.
"Twenty miles to the north, there is a complex of buildings, which looks like a city." Zuo Dengfeng said,
"Ghost towns, that's ghost towns." Ye Feihong's face changed drastically when he heard this,
"What's wrong with the ghost town?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned and spoke, the last time he entered the desert, he had heard Qiu Hu and Ye Feihong talk about the appearance of ghost towns in the desert, but he had never seen it.
"Don't go over, or you'll never come back." Ye Feihong grabbed Zuo Dengfeng with his hand,
"What do you mean?" Zuo Dengfeng asked suspiciously,
"Ghost towns will suddenly appear and disappear, and if someone enters a ghost town, they will be taken away by the ghost town." Ye Feihong held Zuo Dengfeng tightly, and he didn't know if he was worried about Zuo Dengfeng going to find out or because he was too nervous.
"It's okay, I'm not going in, I'm going to take a look from afar." Zuo Dengfeng said to Ye Feihong, he had no intention of entering the ghost town, but he wanted to get a little closer to see what the so-called ghost town was.
"Don't go, you're here to catch snakes, aren't you?" Ye Feihong has no intention of letting go,
"Let go, I'll go and bring Thirteen back." Zuo Dengfeng had already given up his plan to go to the ghost town to find out, but at a glance, he found that Thirteen appeared five miles away on the north side, and was running quickly towards the huge black shadow at this moment.
"Be careful, don't go into a ghost town." Ye Feihong let go of his hand and advised,
"Zuo Zhenren, what's wrong." Zhao Dacang, who was ten feet away from the two, heard the voices of the two and ran over,
"It's okay, stay where you are, I'll be back right away." Zuo Dengfeng said as he stepped on the unloaded dry food bag and borrowed strength, and quickly swept due north in the air.
Even if he stepped on a relatively solid bag of dry food, the momentum of the air was still exhausted after five miles, and he could only sweep out about two miles after jumping on the sand again, but there was a meat pad under his thirteen feet, and his running speed was extremely fast.
"Thirteen, come back." Zuo climbed the peak and shouted loudly as he swept forward, as Ye Feihong said, he was here to find the Yin Fire Snake, and there was no need to make extraneous branches.
What Zuo Dengfeng didn't expect was that Thirteen ignored his summons and quickly ran towards the building complex in the distance, Zuo Dengfeng frowned suddenly when he saw this, and Thirteen only didn't listen to one situation, that is, he met a strong opponent and aroused his competitive spirit......
