Chapter 30: Arrival
A breeze blew in the dim desert, and Jiang Hong, who had a short circuit in his brain, reacted and looked behind him fixedly. I saw a dark shadow rolling on the quicksand not far away. He couldn't see exactly what it was on some dim nights, and he was a little stunned.
At this time, Shi Jian ran over and looked at Jiang Hong back and forth, and when he saw that Jiang Hong had nothing to do, he said with palpitations: "If you didn't react quickly, you would be in trouble." As for what trouble it was, he didn't say anything, and after saying it to Jiang Hong, he walked towards the rolling black shadow by himself.
Time raised his foot and threw it back with all his strength to kick on the rolling black shadow, and the 'squeak' piercing scream pierced the desert night sky, and Shi Yahan and Zhou Jiajia covered their ears in amazement.
Hearing this piercing cry, Shi Jian frowned and sighed, "It's still a step slower!" After speaking, he looked at Jiang Hong and said, "A few of you are gathered together, and I am afraid that there will be a fierce battle later." ”
"Second uncle, what is the situation, it depends on how nervous you are like this. Jiang Hong saw that some sweat drops were oozing from Shi Jian's forehead, and he looked serious, Jiang Hong couldn't help but ask.
"You're embarrassed to say that you can't kill it even if you hit it, you don't know that the kind of cry just now is the sand beast summoning its companions, the sand beast also has a certain spirituality, they are not social animals, but they are special unity, you just wait and see and don't be scared. Time wiped the sweat from his forehead, pretended to be relaxed and introduced to Jiang Hong, and finally did not forget to joke Jiang Hong.
Jiang Hong listened to his words, and felt a little disapproving, and couldn't help but pout.
Shi Jian looked at him indifferently, thinking to himself to see how calm you would wait, at this time the desert returned to quiet, and the breeze blew, giving people a little coolness.
"It's coming......" Shi Jian said with a frown.
Jiang Hong and the others heard his reminder, and each one of them held their breath and listened carefully.
"Rustling ......" is like the sound of quicksand flowing, but it doesn't seem to be, because this sound is loud and dense, Jiang Hong finally began to comfort himself in his heart, stabilizing his heart that was about to panic.
The sound gradually surrounded from far and near, and the sound became louder and denser.
"Brother Jiang Hong, I'm afraid ......" Shi Yahan looked at Jiang Hong timidly and said.
"It's okay, the three of you will follow me later, and you must also prevent the sand beasts rushing over, and the second uncle will open the way for you. Before Jiang Hong could answer, Shi Jian turned around and said to them.
In fact, Jiang Hong's fear in his heart was not much better than Shi Yahan, after all, he had never seen such a scene when he came here, how could he not panic, but as a boy, he was calmer.
While Jiang Hong was talking, the black shadows in the distance that could be seen slowly approached them along the quicksand, and it looked like a layer of things had been spread on the quicksand, and Jiang Hong felt his scalp tingle.
"Follow me!" Shi Jian finished and strode forward.
Jiang Hong pulled Shi Yahan and Shi Jiajia, who were trembling all over their bodies, to follow, looking at the endless sand beasts, Jiang Hong's shock can be imagined, such a scene had only appeared in the special effects of the movie before, and he looked at Shi Jian who didn't look back speechlessly, and rushed forward with a hard head.
Getting closer and closer, Shi Jian finally rushed to the sand beast in the front, raised his foot and kicked out, and the sand beasts in the front row were pushed to a large area by Shi Jian's power.
The 'squeak' sound was incessant, Jiang Hong even suspected that his eardrums had been shattered, and at the moment, he didn't care about learning from Shi Jian's appearance and raised his foot to kick when he saw the sand beast. Jiang Hong, whose strength has been refined to the ninefold consummation, is not small, and even he himself can't feel it, just looking at the sand beasts that have been kicked away one by one, he is a little excited in his heart.
At this time, he also saw the specific appearance of the sand beast clearly, it was about the size of an adult wolf, the head was a little like a pig, but the corners of the mouth were not extended, and the whole body was yellow, which was somewhat similar to the color of the desert. In the daytime, it should be the same color.
The more Jiang Hong kicked, the more excited he became, if it weren't for Shi Yahan and Shi Jiajia, the two oil bottles, he would have been eager to rush into the beast group and fight for a while, Jiang Hong, who had not beaten anyone, was a little hilarious when he hit the sand beast at this time, and he naively thought so.
And he didn't know that at this time, not far in front of them, a black shadow two or three times older than him was dealing with these sand beasts, and he was howling angrily.
In this way, Shi Jian opened the way in front, and Jiang Hong pulled Shi Yahan and Shi Jiajia backwards to follow, often raising his legs and kicking the sand beasts that followed. Slowly, Shi Yahan and Shi Jiajia unloaded their panic and kicked them up, but their strength was not as great as Jiang Hong's, they just kicked the sand beast, unlike Jiang Hong and Shi Jian, who could kick the sand beast away every time, and pushed it to a large area.
Time passed little by little, Jiang Hong and Shi Jian tirelessly struggled with the sand beast, the difference was that Shi Jian seemed a little relaxed, Jiang Hong was tirelessly panting, completely occupied by excitement.
Suddenly, a tall black shadow appeared in front of Shi Jian, and he looked at it as his brows finally wrinkled into a Sichuan shape, and he looked at it with some solemnity, even if he could see it clearly.
As soon as Shi Jian moved, the black shadow also seemed to be aware of the rush towards him, and the moment they were about to collide together, Shi Jian raised his leg and kicked out.
"Bumper!" There were two loud bangs, the black shadow took a few steps backwards, and Shi Jian completely slid towards Jiang Hong with the quicksand, Jiang Hong ran over to resist Shi Jian when he saw this, but unfortunately he slid backwards two or three steps along with him.
Jiang Hong's shock in his heart can be imagined, the previous excitement was suddenly diluted, and he looked around with some solemnity.
I saw that the other sand beasts had retreated and besieged them in a larger circle, as if to prevent them. At this time, he also believed that these sand beasts that Shi Jian said already had some spiritual intelligence.
Shi Jian saw that Jiang Hong was holding him and took a few steps back, he felt that his old face was a little unbearable, and he scratched his head in embarrassment and grinned at Jiang Hong. Seeing that Jiang Hong was speechless, when did he still care about this, and he couldn't laugh if he didn't want to.
Shi Jian saw Jiang Hong's speechless appearance, and knew that this guy must have despised him in his heart, so he waved his hand at Jiang Hong and wanted to walk forward again.
This time he didn't run, he walked step by step, leaving big footprints on the quicksand, which were faintly visible in the desert at night. Before he was about to walk to the black shadow, he saw Shi Jian's eyes solemnly and waved his hand, and a long sword appeared in his hand, and he looked at the long sword and turned around and smiled at Jiang Hong.
At this time, Jiang Hong couldn't care about the situation in front of him, and he wanted to ask infinite questions in his heart, but he knew that he could only hold it in his heart. He really couldn't figure out how to carry such a long sword stone jian, the cloth bag couldn't fit at all, and he didn't see him holding it when he came, many doubts came to his heart, Jiang Hong looked up.
I saw Shi Jian holding the long sword in his right hand and rushing towards the black shadow, about three steps away from the black shadow, the long sword swung upward, it seemed to have a little light, and the sound came out, and the black shadow kept retreating.
"Squeak ......" A frightened squeak resounded in the desert, and then the black shadow fled into the distance, and then the sand beasts surrounding Jiang Hong also slowly retreated, disappearing without a trace for a while.
Jiang Hong was left in the desert with a stunned face, and Shi Jian sat on the quicksand panting, reaching out to wipe the sweat on his cheeks. At this time, Shi Jian already had no long sword in his hand, and he didn't know where he went.
Jiang Hong reacted, came to Shi Jian's side, searched around, but found nothing, squatted down and looked at Shi Jian with inquiring eyes.
"The sand beast is finally gone, tonight's luck is really back, I met the sand beast king, and finally ran away. Shi Jian saw Jiang Hong's inquiring eyes, and explained in a somewhat unnatural tone.
"I know these, where did you go with your long sword just now, let me see?" Shi Jian actually changed the topic, so Jiang Hong asked directly.
"That...... That one...... Jiang Hong, you can't be mistaken, where did the long sword come from?" Shi Jian replied with an innocent face.
"Second uncle, I also saw it, it was in your hand just now. Shi Yahan heard him say this, ran over and said, and took his right hand after speaking.
"You must have read it wrong, how could it be, I don't know?" After speaking, he looked at Jiang Hong and them in surprise with a look of ignorance.
Jiang Hong was a little speechless in his heart, encountering such a strange thing as Shi Jian. If you don't say it, you won't say it, so why pretend to be like this.
"If you don't say it, forget it, it's not uncommon to know, what are you going to do tonight?" Shi Yahan wanted to say something, Jiang Hong pulled her, and then asked Shi Jian.
"I think we're all tired, let's spend the night here tonight, anyway, the sand beast won't be here tonight, we should be able to get there tomorrow if we hold on for another day." Shi Jian put away his expression just now and said a little tiredly, and after speaking, he put down the cloth bag on his back and began to support the cloth tent.
Jiang Hong saw Shi Yahan's gaze, nodded and began to support the cloth tent.
This night, Jiang Hong meditated and practiced as always, and gradually got used to using cultivation instead of sleeping. But he didn't feel strange about what happened tonight, as if subconsciously he felt that it was a very ordinary thing. Jiang Hong didn't know that he had begun to integrate into the life of this world.
The others also slept sweetly this night, because they were too tired, and they also believed in Shi Jian's words, which may be the most restful sleep they have slept in the past few days.
The next morning, they all got up early, looked at their embarrassed figures, laughed and began to hurry, the morning sun of Belley, let the midday sun shine, send away the twilight of the sunset, they were all on the road.
The tired figure greeted the evening sunset, and in the encouragement of Shi Jian's words and sentences, they looked forward to moving forward.
Finally, the sound of chickens and dogs barking in the distance came from the depths of the desert, Shi Yahan ran up the sand dunes excitedly, looked around, and turned back to Jiang Hong and shouted at them for a while: "It's here, it's here...... It's beautiful, it's beautiful......"
Jiang Hong was a little puzzled, how Shi Yahan's voice, which was still a little stunned just now, became so impactful, and he wondered how to climb up the sand dune. Only Shi Jian looked like he had expected it, looking at them and laughing.
(ps: The title of this book has been changed from "Ancient Desert" to "Desert Divine Origin", a new book for newcomers, asking for the support of friends who like it, writing a book is not easy for me, because of life, so difficult; because of life, so time is like water in a dry sponge; because of life, so hope...... I may not be able to write a good story yet, but I will definitely create a complete story, but I need patience to wait and I learn to grow, not to say more, maybe not many people will see it, just ask friends who see it to give me a support, let me have more motivation to persevere!)
