Chapter 35: The Desert Crisis
"Here's what I've collected in the past two days, you can take a look, and there's no news of the bobcat yet, but it's a little weird. Zhang Xiaowen threw a stack of thick materials on the table to Mo Tian.
"Oh? Mo Tian took the information, just glanced at it, threw it aside, and finally sat on the only stool in the house price, that is, the chair used by Zhang Xiaowen in the office.
Zhang Xiaowen raised her eyebrows, glanced at Queen Finney on the side, but held back her temper and said lightly: "Recently, there have been many desert caravans that have disappeared for no reason, and from the desert, there are many spirit beasts fleeing out. ”
Mo Tian and Queen Finney frowned at the same time, the spirit beast fled?
It's like many animals in nature have a particularly sensitive sense of certain organs, and when some disasters strike, animals can know about the occurrence of some disaster events before humans, such as jellyfish in the ocean can predict storms, rats can avoid mine collapses or harmful gases in advance, and so on.
And the spirit beasts have a spiritual sense far higher than that of humans, and stronger survivability, ordinary disasters are just a trivial matter for them, so far, large-scale spirit beasts escaping is not a small thing, such as the flame mountain was burned by the alchemy furnace of Taishang Laojun, the spirit beasts on the mountain have escaped cleanly, and for example, the gods of Tanta fought the sea monster, the spirit beasts on Mount Olympus escaped completely, and sure enough, Olympus was completely destroyed in the end...... There are countless examples of this, and if the spirit beast escapes, there will be a great disaster!
In particular, Queen Finney's face is extremely ugly, her Fire Country has just settled in the desert, if something happens, the people in the Fire Country will suffer as soon as possible!
"Do you have any information about the spirit beast's escape?" Mo Tian also put on a serious expression.
Zhang Xiaowen nodded, took out a document from the drawer of the table, Mo Tian took the information, this time it was a little slower, after a while, Mo Tian's face also became a little ugly, turned to Queen Finney and said: "It seems that there is really a problem, I thought it was because of the fall of the Holy City, but in the past two days, the number of escapes has increased, and even the fire bamboo rats have begun to leave, you should communicate with Pipa and let her lead the people of the Fire Country to withdraw from the desert first." ”
There is nothing wrong with the great calamity of the desert, and I am afraid that this calamity will be brought by Anubis.
"Spirit beasts, spirit beasts. Mo Tian suddenly slapped his head and stood up, "How did I forget this, don't we just have a spirit beast here!"
Mo Tian is talking about the sand python that has been following behind the three of them, although the Fire Scorpion King is also a spirit beast, but the Fire Scorpion King has always been in the underground magma, unless the entire earth is destroyed, I am afraid they will not feel any existential crisis.
The sand python is different, it is a native desert monster.
A strange sound came out of Mo Tian's mouth, and a mound of earth suddenly appeared on the ground in the room, and the sand pushed away to both sides, revealing the huge snake head of the sand python.
"This, what is this!" Zhang Xiaowen's face turned pale, the extremely cold energy between her hands was ready, and the temperature of the room dropped a lot in an instant, it seems that not all women like snakes!
"Oh, don't be nervous, don't be nervous, this is my new little brother, it's very kind, it won't bite people, don't worry. Mo Tian hurriedly blocked the front, glanced at the two balls of extremely cold energy in Zhang Xiaowen's hands, the corners of his eyes beat slightly, and said in his heart, this aunt is really getting more and more powerful, these two groups of energy are not to mention sand pythons, even if Mo Tian bears it, it is estimated that it is enough.
It's no wonder that Queen Finney asked that question just now, Zhang Xiaowen's attack method is too similar to the young Moon Girl, and sure enough, Queen Finny's gaze also stayed on Zhang Xiaowen's body for a while at this moment.
Mo Tian walked in front of the sand python and said a few words in the beast language in a low voice, the big snake was also a snake letter and spit out, with several rapid notes in his mouth, a pair of big eyes, first confused, then happy, and then a little afraid.
"Master, what did the little loaches say?" asked Liu Feifei.
It said that it did not feel any catastrophe, but felt comfortable, as if something great was about to happen. Mo Tian imitated the little snake's confused tone and said.
"Oh, looks like we've got a clue. Queen Finney laughed.
Mo Tian nodded: "Indeed, and we should be able to find our old opponent soon, Anubis." ”
"Master, Queen Finney, what the hell are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word? Didn't the little loach say that there was no disaster? ”
Mo Tian was completely disappointed in his stupid apprentice, and threw Liu Feifei's question to Queen Fini, and since ancient times, he remembered the question, what happened in the desert was really Anubis?
"Fei Fei, our clue is on the little loach, since the spirit beasts in the desert all feel that a big disaster is coming, why can't the little loach feel it? That can only mean that what is going to happen is not a bad thing for the little loach? The only difference between it and the spirit beasts in the desert is its adventure. ”
"So I can't guess that the place where the little loach has an adventure must have something to do with this matter. ”
"Wrong, to be exact, it should be the root of this matter! It's just a little energy that can make the python turn into a dragon, what a big deal, I'm afraid Anubis alone can't do such a thing, I'm curious, what power is behind him." Mo Tian raised his eyebrows and said coldly, Mo Tian faintly felt that the lynx coming to Egypt might have something to do with this matter.
"Then what do we need to do now?" Zhang Xiaowen had already put away the energy in her hand, but she still tried her best to stand in the corner of the room away from the sand python, but this room was only such a small size, and the four of them were already crowded and crowded, not to mention the addition of a snake head, it was even more crowded.
"Now, of course, I'm going to leave right away, I don't know what Anubis is up to, but it's the right thing to do before trouble arises! Mo Tian turned his head and whispered a few notes to the sand python.
The sand python shook its head and lowered its head in shame, when it passed through an oasis, it originally wanted to find out if there were any people and animals in the oasis to eat, but it just emerged from the ground, and saw the colorful glow, and then only felt that it was wrapped in a warm energy, and when it woke up, that feeling disappeared, it emerged from the ground, and even the oasis was gone!
The sand python thought it was his own dream, but after that, his body became strange, his strength became much greater, and his head still felt pain.
Mo Tian asked it, do you still remember the place where you woke up later, the sand python could only shake his head helplessly, it was just a sandy place, the whole desert is such a place, now, where do you remember?
"You just said that there are still business travelers fleeing?" Mo Tian suddenly brought up another inconspicuous question.
"That's right, in the last ten days, there have been more than 30 caravans that have gone missing recently, almost as much as the total statistics of Cairo in recent years, and the disappearance rate of people walking alone in the desert has also increased a lot, it is said that it is due to the obvious increase in desert hurricanes recently. Zhang Xiaowen spoke the situation very fluently.
Mo Tian lowered his head as if thinking about something, and after a moment, he suddenly raised his eyebrows, turned to Queen Finney and asked, "Have you ever heard of it, Itsman, this name?"
"Itesman?" Queen Phineshman frowned, thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be an organization run by a pharaoh, there are many elder guards in the desert, and it seems that Itesman is the most powerful of these guards, subordinate to the greatest pharaoh Khufu. ”
Speaking of Itesman, Liu Feifei on the side also remembered everything she encountered when she first came to the desert: "Itesman's people are all big villains, they will control tornadoes and attack the caravan people!"
This is not a difficult task for the gods in the desert, even ordinary spirit beasts such as sand pythons can create a desert storm in a short time.
The disappearance of the merchant traveler, the escape of the spirit beast, the desert miracle, the collapse of the holy city, and the oasis of dead air that was burned down by Princess Pipa incarnated as Qingluan, this little clue gradually became clear in Mo Tian's mind, except for a few details, Mo Tian could already roughly guess the beginning and end of the matter.
"There are no business trips to travel lately. Mo Tian suddenly asked.
"Yes, despite the recent panic, there is still a caravan to travel tonight, and it is said that they have hired the most elite leader in the desert. Zhang Xiaowen thought for a while.
"Haha, great, let's see who is doing ghosts in this great desert. Mo Tian laughed and pushed the door out.
