Chapter 37: Into the desert, the first acquaintance with the sea
Although I don't know what medicine is sold in the gourd of refining you, the earth-level recovery pill left for Ye Tian in the end is genuine. After Ye Tian devoured it, it took a few days to completely refine the elixir. Unexpectedly, relying on this elixir, he not only recovered physically, but also broke through in his strength and successfully advanced to the second-grade human level.
After that, he recuperated for a few days.
Seeing that the time for the Sword Sect to recruit new people is approaching. Ye Tian felt that he couldn't stay here any longer, so he took Xidong and headed towards the capital. With the help of Lian You, it is a very simple thing to pass through Ten Thousand Yuan City. During this period, Lian You told Shang Wei that the three of them had already left Wanyuan City and went to the capital.
Passing through the city of 10,000 yuan, there was a dense forest at the beginning of the city, and a winding avenue that could accommodate two carriages zigzagged through the woods. The farther away from Wanyuan City, the more sparse the surrounding woods became. I must be one step closer to that desert.
The woods finally disappeared, and in front of them was a barren, endless desert. At a glance, the yellow sand is everywhere, the hot wind blows by, and the sand rises. I was able to find a plant by accident, but it also looked so yellow, successfully integrated into this yellow sandy land, and looked so fragile under the hot wind.
"It's a desert, it's hot. It's all yellow sand, isn't there any water?" As soon as he stepped into the desert, Ye Tian was already sweating, and his clothes were already soaked with sweat.
Compared to Ye Tian, Xidong seemed even hotter, and the whole person seemed to be about to fall. Hearing Ye Tian say such a thing, he really showed a pitiful look. He is a werewolf, and he can withstand the cold, which is his own warm fur. But in the face of the heat, he was unlucky. I can't wait to pluck that fur off.
"Ahem. Seeing Xidong's appearance, Ye Tian also suddenly realized, became embarrassed, coughed, and continued, "It doesn't matter, let's speed up, we should wear it soon." Hold on, big brother. ”
The road still has to go, Xidong pouted, gritted his teeth, and continued to walk forward. The pace of the two also began to quicken, stepping on the soft and hot yellow sand, and walking towards the direction of the capital step by step.
The sun has passed half a week, and now it is high in the sky, and a strong wave of heat hits this golden land. Ye Tian and the others, who had not run out of water for half a day, were already hungry and thirsty at this moment. Not long ago, they were still striding forward with great interest, but now, both of them were depressed, their heads were about to be buried in the yellow sand, and they couldn't catch up with the previous step.
"Ah, I can't stand it. I want water. Died of thirst. Why don't we bring some water?" Finally unable to hold on, Ye Tian spread his limbs and lay on the ground, refusing to go down, grumbling.
Xidong was almost there, but he didn't lie down, leaning on the support of half a branch that he found out of nowhere, half kneeling on the yellow sand, looking at Ye Tian on the ground with a haggard face, wanting to speak, but couldn't speak. I am afraid that if I open my mouth, the only remaining water will suddenly evaporate.
Gradually, the half-kneeling Xidong's vision began to blur, and he raised his head slightly, as if there was a waterhole in front of him, surrounded by a few green trees with hope.
"Ye Tian, look at it. There's water there, there's still trees. Without waiting for Ye Tian to pay attention to himself, Xidong excitedly threw half of the branch in his hand into the air and ran towards the waterhole he saw.
Hearing that there was water, Ye Tian, who was lying on the ground, immediately cheered up and got up from the ground. But when I looked in the direction where Xidong was running, where was the water?
Xi Dong had already run to the waterhole he saw, planted himself in the waterhole, and drank it heavily. Hidon, who jumped into the waterhole, gradually sank. But in Ye Tian's eyes, at this moment, Xidong was rolling in a field of yellow sand, with yellow sand in his mouth, and his body was indeed sinking.
Ye Tian felt something abnormal, and ran quickly towards Xidong, "Xidong, what are you doing?" Come here, why are you sinking?"
"What? Didn't you see me swimming in the pool, didn't you see me gulping the sweet water? Ye Tian, you should come down quickly. Look, I'm still snorkeling. Xi Dong didn't know what Ye Tian said, so he grabbed a handful of sand and threw it at Ye Tian, but these yellow sand were sweet pools in his eyes.
"Bastard, wake me up. You take a closer look around. Seeing that Xidong was sinking deeper and deeper, Ye Tian couldn't help but get anxious. I happened to have a stone beside me, so I immediately picked it up and threw it at Xidong.
The stone hit Hidon's forehead, and for a while, she finally came to her senses. Looking around, I saw that I had fallen into the yellow sand at this moment, and there was still some yellow sand left in my mouth. "What's wrong with me? Am I hallucinating? How do I feel like I'm sinking. ”
Xidong finally came to his senses, but he kept sinking down, and he was suddenly a little anxious. Shidon began to struggle to escape from here. But the more I struggled, the deeper I sank.
"Shidon, don't move. Catch my clothes and I'll pull you up. Ye Tian hurriedly took off his shirt, exposed his upper body, and threw the clothes in his hand towards Xidong. Xidong immediately grabbed the clothes, and Ye Tian began to pull Xidong hard.
It took a lot of effort, but not only did he not pull Xidong up, but Xidong fell deeper and deeper. Now only one head and two hands are exposed.
The two of them had never been involved in the desert, and the first time they encountered such a situation, they really didn't know how to deal with it. Seeing that Xidong was sinking deeper and deeper, Ye Tian, who was pulling his clothes on the side, was also anxious, but he didn't know what to do. On the one hand, he could only encourage Xidong not to give up, and on the other hand, he still pulled his clothes hard.
"Don't move!"
Suddenly, there was a sharp sound in the sky, and Ye Tian had not yet reacted. I saw a figure floating above Xidong. The person who came grabbed Xidong's hands and pulled Xidong out of place with a slight force. and threw Xidong beside Ye Tian.
The man who came was not finished, floating in the air, holding the unsheathed sword, and quickly slashing downward. Suddenly, several sharp rays of light shot out from above the sword, and slammed towards the yellow sand below.
There was a loud bang accompanied by an unclear roar, and two corpses of unknown objects flew out from under the yellow sand.
It seemed to have been resolved, and the air slowly descended to Ye Tian and Xidong's side, "Are you all right?" ”
The man was a middle-aged man, dressed in plain clothes, with a horrific scar on his right eye, about the length of a thumb. can float in mid-air, presumably the strength of the man in front of him will not be lower than the ground level.
"It's all right. Thank you seniors for saving me. Hearing the man ask about the two of them, Ye Tian hurriedly responded politely. And Xidong on the side was also very grateful to the seemingly fierce man in front of him for saving his life, and hurriedly stood up and thanked him.
"There's still a little water here, take it and drink it. The man took the kettle off his waist and threw it to Ye Tian.
took the kettle, the two of them didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and drank all the water in the kettle in one go. Drinking this water is like drinking the elixir and jade dew, and even the agar and jade dew can't catch up with this water. As soon as they finished drinking, the two of them sat down on the ground contentedly, and their mouths kept babbling, as if they were still savoring.
"Why are you two here? It's okay with the strength of the prefecture, you dare to come to this desert. The man looked at Ye Tian and asked puzzledly.
"Well, we didn't know this desert was so scary. Thank you for the water of the seniors. By the way, what kind of animals are those two predecessors, why haven't you seen them?" "If you don't have personal experience, you really can't believe that this desert is really not something that anyone can walk." If you reach the strength above the prefecture level, you can rely on flying to pass through.
Following Ye Tian's point, the man looked at the corpses of the two unknown creatures and responded slightly, "Those are two demonic beasts with human-level strength, called quicksand beasts." Nothing capable. Instead, you can create a mirage with your own abilities, and then create quicksand, and destroy the food under the quicksand. Looks like you must have been attracted by their mirage. ”
If you say this, you can answer why Xidong had such a strange behavior before. It turned out that these two monsters were the devil. Although he had never seen this kind of demonic beast, Ye Tian dared to confidently say that he could beat them. After all, he is only human-level.
The continent is not only inhabited by human races, but also by all kinds of alien races, and of course, Warcraft is also a part of the Hope Continent. There are many types of Warcraft, and there are quite a few of them. It is possible to encounter them everywhere on the continent, but the truly powerful and ferocious demonic beasts can only be seen in the 100,000 mountains in the middle of the continent. There's an alien race that has been expelled, and the monsters that can survive under the alien race can imagine how powerful they are.
The level of Warcraft and the level of Warrior are general. When the demonic beast reaches the heaven level, it can speak human language. However, Warcraft will always be Warcraft, and it is impossible to transform into a human form. Of course, it can't be ruled out that some magical beasts that can transform their abilities.
"It turned out that two monsters made a ghost. Hearing the man's words, Ye Tian muttered to himself.
"You two teenagers, why are you here?
"Well, that senior, the two of us are going to the capital to prepare to participate in the recruitment of new people from the Sword Sect. So be sure to walk through this desert. Ye Tian responded with a smile.
Hearing the word Sword Sect, the man's face seemed to change slightly. "Don't call me senior, just call me by my name. My name is Ji Canghai. ”
Hearing these three words, Ye Tian and Xidong felt very familiar, but they couldn't remember where they had heard them. Looking at Ji Canghai's face, a person suddenly flashed in Ye Tian's mind. Isn't Ji Canghai the murderer who is wanted by the whole dynasty?
Every city has an edict that wants Ji Canghai. According to the edict, Ji Canghai wiped out the entire clan in the capital overnight.
Thinking of this, Ye Tian was a little worried in his heart, this Ji Canghai's strength is not shallow, if he does it, the two of them will definitely not be guaranteed. But thinking that Ji Canghai saved himself, for some reason, he felt that the seemingly fierce man in front of him was not what the edict said.
"In Xia Yetian, this is my friend, Xidong. Thank you again for your life-saving grace. Ye Tian slowly took a few steps forward and arched his hand.
"Haha. For some reason, Ji Canghai suddenly burst out laughing, looked at Ye Tian with interest, and then said, "Interesting." From the look in your eyes, I can tell you've heard my name. Why don't you want to run away when you know my identity?"
Similarly, Ye Tian responded to Ji Canghai with a smile, "Hehe." I do already know the identity of Senior Ji. But a person who can save someone he doesn't know must not be a fierce and evil person. I don't dare to assert whether what my predecessors did was true or false, right or wrong. However, I, Ye Tian, believe that my predecessors will not kill people who have no grievances against them. I guess there must be a reason for what happened before my predecessors. ”
Ji Canghai squinted his eyes and looked at Ye Tian in front of him who was talking with relish. Suddenly, he slowly walked in front of Ye Tian. Ye Tian did not dodge.
"Ye Tian, right. It's funny, it's really nice to know someone so young who can say such things. You're a friend, I'm done. Walking in front of Ye Tian, Ji Canghai patted Ye Tian's shoulder with his right hand and said happily.
"If my seniors don't dislike it, I'm willing to make friends with my seniors. ”
"I said don't call me senior. Just call me by my name, or Brother Ji. Between the words, Ji Canghai's gaze turned to the surroundings of the desert, looked at the situation, and said to Ye Tian, "It seems that the wind is coming." I'll take you two to the Doom Inn first. ”
As soon as the words fell, Ji Canghai released a powerful martial artist's aura. The aura of the warrior quickly surrounded Ye Tian and Xi Dong. "Ready. After speaking, without waiting for Ye Tian and the others to respond, Ji Canghai jumped into the air, and immediately flew into the air with Ye Tian and Xidong.
In mid-air, Ye Tian looked not far away, only to see a yellow dragon constantly absorbing the surrounding yellow sand towards him. To be precise, it was a tornado caused by a strong wind sweeping through the yellow sand. I didn't expect that as Ji Canghai said, the wind really came.
The desert climate is really weird
