There was nothing in the water except bubbles.

No impurities, no sand, no aquatic weeds.

Interestingly, he was able to breathe smoothly, like a fish in water, without a little suffocation.

But he was so annoyed in his heart that he usually didn't do this kind of dangerous work of finding the way for people, but he was directly swept away by the remnants of the commander of the Gale Army, and he was sent here.

To put it bluntly, the cultivation is low.

In the past, I didn't feel that I was powerful in Blackwater City, but later I met Nian Songyu and Sun Guoshi, and then I came to Panlong City to explore, and seeing that the crisis was approaching step by step, this cultivation became more and more powerless.

If only he had been stronger.

The body sank rapidly, and the ground was black directly below, like a bottomless pit.

Just before he sank into the boundless darkness, He Lingchuan seemed to see a dark red figure.

The thing seemed to be large, large, looming around him, and the exposed part of the body should be cylindrical.

Well, it's like a bucket, but it's magnified countless times.

Best of all, this thing moves!

It's a pity that He Lingchuan didn't have time to take a closer look, and it was dark in front of him.

……

When he opened his eyes again, the scene changed again.

Standing by a small stream, the water was clear and the sand and gravel were clean, and a small river shrimp was attacking his boots.

The peanuts and wild radishes by the stream are very green, and a few farms not far away are filled with smoke.

He Lingchuan touched his body and found that his clothes were dry and not wet with the blood in the pond at all. It seems that it is just a passageway.

He climbed up the low slope from the valley and was stunned as soon as he raised his eyes.

The plain in front of me is full of life, a large wheat field is greening, and the green trees on the edge of the field are a little thin, but the highest is also three or five feet.

Shoutian's hut was dotted with dots, and He Lingchuan also saw a water bladder hanging from a nearby tree branch.

And in the distance, a large river gushes, dividing two plains.

On the other side of the river, the stratum is much higher than here, and from a distance it looks like a giant crocodile lying on the river's edge.

On top of that, the shape of the edge of the plain is unique and familiar.

Could that be...... Chipa Plateau?

He Lingchuan jumped down the slope and walked in the direction of the Chipa Plateau.

The sky was blue, the clouds were white, and the air was mixed with the damp smell of earth and grass. Walking in the idyll, it is refreshing.

Especially for those who have just come from a desert town.

However, the more serene it is, the more eerie it becomes.

He Lingchuan walked straight for hundreds of zhang, passing through a village with a hundred families on the way, but he didn't meet a single person.

The size of this village is not small.

The fields, the farmhouses, everywhere were quiet, and he went from house to house to see that they were empty. But in one kitchen, the coarse steamed buns were steamed, steaming hot.

He didn't dare to eat it, but he took out a steamed bun and pinched it, it was soft and hot.

Where have all the people gone?

After passing through a wheat field, a pink butterfly happened to come to you.

He Lingchuan stretched out his hand a little, and his fingertips passed through the butterfly.

Nothing.

Fake?

He found a green grasshopper in the wheat field again, and poked it with his finger, and it was also air.

These creatures are illusions.

But Mai Miao's touch is real. He pinched off a little seedling core, put it in his mouth and chewed it, it was a little astringent and a little bitter, which was exactly the taste of grass sprouts.

At that moment, there was a bang in the wheat field, and a living creature came out.

He Lingchuan was taken aback, and half of the knife was drawn, only to find that the person who came was actually a sand bandit.

This person is the second cousin of Situ Han's brother-in-law, named Mao Tao, and he got this nickname because he is thin and small and has a long beard.

He was also stunned when he saw He Lingchuan, and then he was overjoyed: "Da Shao, you're fine!" ”

"What about the others?" He Lingchuan looked left and right, and found that only one of his teammates came, "Also, why is there one less fire on your shoulder?" ”

"It was taken away by the national teacher and put on the candle." Mao Tao's face was bitter, "Then he pushed me down." Where is this, Panlong...... Moor? ”

Anyone with eyes can see the strangeness of this place. "This is fake, isn't it?"

"Hmm." He Lingchuan immediately guessed Sun Guoshi's purpose, "They use you to explore the way, then they are about to come down." ”

The two walked forward together, and He Lingchuan asked him, "When you pass the scene...... No, did you see anything after you fell into the pool? ”

"Even the pale red blood didn't choke me. And then here it is in the blink of an eye. ”

"Nothing else?"

Mao Tao thought about it carefully: "No." What do you see? ”

He Lingchuan shook his head.

Seeing the huge unknown object in the pale red pool water, was he dazzled?

After walking for more than half an hour, the two finally approached the Chipa Plateau.

The river in front of you is gentle, the width is about three zhang, and the water flow is not hurried. He Lingchuan knew that this should be the moat of Panlong City, but it was far from being as deep and wide as he had seen before.

Traveling west along the river bank again, another quarter of an hour, Panlong City finally appeared in view.

"That, that!" Mao Tao exhaled, "That's Panlong City?" ”

Panlong City is still in exactly the same location, the lower pass of the Chipa Plateau. But it doesn't look as grand as it looks in the desert.

The walls were not so high and thick, and there were not even crocodile tooth vertebrae on the battlements.

When the two approached the Tiansheng Bridge, they found that the bridge deck was paved with bluestones, several of which were broken, and the cracks were stuffed with moss and stains.

After crossing the bridge, the city gate is still there, but the door panel is not hemlock, but an ordinary iron-clad thick wooden door.

The defensive hardness of this kind of city pass is not much different from that of Blackwater City.

However, there were still two people standing under the city gate, and they waved at them.

Nian Songyu, Sun Fuping.

He Lingchuan frowned secretly when he saw them, but he stepped forward with a look of surprise: "Why are you the only two?" What about the others? ”

"The spirit of the Gale Army has found reinforcements, and He Junshou has led people to stay behind to defend against the enemy outside the pond." Sun Fuping said, "This is the territory of the Gale Army, and we can't fight them here. ”

Otherwise, it is a dead end.

It seems to make a lot of sense, but He Lingchuan chuckled in his heart, knowing that he had to be extra careful, but his face was very dissatisfied: "Dad is really unkind, leave me here alone." ”

Sun Fuping didn't bother to respond, only asked, "By the way, how long have you been down?" ”

"Probably...... Two hours? He Lingchuan turned around and pointed, "I landed in the village over there and climbed up from the river." ”

Sun Fuping's face changed slightly, and Nian Songyu pointed at Mao Tao and said, "How come?" I'm following this guy closely. He's a few dozen breaths later than you. ”

The national teacher muttered: "The four of us came down one after another, but the time when we appeared here was different, that is, the flow rate. It's not just a fantasy. ”

Yes, whoever comes down will first define this place as an illusion.
