Chapter 359: Sandstorm
The grass is withered, and the yellow leaves are all over the ground.
Liu Xianglian's horse team set off again from Xining Province, already fully loaded with goods.
Follow the map given by Yu Feiya, and go further and further away.
In the end, they came to the edge of a desert.
Along the desert, the horses were gradually unable to support themselves, and the heavy cargo trapped the horses' hooves in the quicksand, and in just a few hours, three horses were buried in the quicksand forever.
"Young Master Liu, isn't this the right way!"
Although Tian Qi was Tang Hu's loyal little brother, at this time, he watched the horse team facing the sun and going deeper and deeper in the desert.
"No...... Wrong, senior sister, what do you say?"
"How do I know......
Oh----!
You're asking that!"
Meng Meng smiled: "Don't worry, there must be no problem, if she wants to kill you in the future, she will do it herself!"
"It's fine.
Lao Tian, trust me, no problem!
If only I had known that I would have gotten some camels!"
The horse team went farther and farther, and gradually they could no longer see the way they came, and there was only endless wind and sand accompanying the horse team.
"Water!"
"Water!"
"The water is gone......
No one thought that they would be short of water.
"Young Master Liu, let's go back now, I think we're probably not ready."
Liu Xianglian looked at Tian Qi speechlessly: "Senior sister, you go to the sky to see, where is there a water source near here, we need to replenish some water."
"Senior brother, then be careful yourself!"
Meng Meng rose into the sky and flew high into the sky, and with a shock of her wings, she disappeared into the sky.
"Lao Tian, let's get here, we've exhausted all the water, how can we go back?
Now it's hard to ride a tiger!
We must work together to move forward!"
Liu Xianglian looked at the map from time to time, and the only thing he was worried about now was that he recognized the wrong direction!
There's no reference here, and everything can only be based on the initial direction.
"Liu Gongzi is right, Lao Tian, since we have embarked on this road, we will follow Liu Gongzi from birth to death!"
"Yes, Lao Tian, now that Jiangnan is in the war, if we can't find salt, there will be no hope for the future of Duliu City."
It's not that no one is complaining, it's that it's useless to complain now!
It's another hour, under the scorching sun, everyone has to use their own internal force to isolate the high temperature!
But they are just third-rate masters, and how long does it take.
Only half an hour later, the weakest third-rate master called Han Da Niu had chapped lips and was so soft that he was in the desert.
"Puff"
The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground startled everyone.
Now, in fact, the best way to do this is,
"Brother Han, you're okay!"
"I...... I'm afraid I can't do it, so let's go, don't worry about it...... I!
The people of this world cannot eat without salt.
Liu Gongzi, promise me that the people can eat cheap salt, okay...... Is it?"
Liu Xianglian looked at Han Qiang with a complicated expression.
A living life is about to die in front of oneself, and it is especially unpleasant in my heart.
Those who are in high positions decide life and death with one word.
At this moment, Liu Xianglian deeply realized that as a person with great responsibility, every decision should be considered comprehensively and fully prepared.
"Kill the horse!"
Liu Xianglian took matters into her own hands, put away the knife and fell, and a horse that looked a little tired was hacked to death!
"Quick, catch the horse's blood, what are you doing in a daze!"
Only then did everyone react, and hurriedly took out the skin bag for storing water, and picked up the hot horse blood as a temporary water supply.
「
Brethren save some drink! These horses...... And our friends."
Liu Xianglian's act of killing horses was only fearful in the eyes of other horses.
But stepping on the snow, there is something else in his eyes.
"Treading the snow!"
Liu Xianglian touched the neck of Treadxue with a heavy heart: "I'm sorry for this horse brother, but as the current leader, I must make a choice!"
I'm sorry."
The horse's blood was entered, and Han Qiang woke up.
"Brethren, the map shows that we will be able to leave this desert in half an hour at most!"
"Great, keep it up!"
Everyone mustered up the courage and started to move forward again in high spirits!
Suddenly, a cool breeze hit, and Liu Xianglian was stunned.
"Rain?"
Still is...... The sky was dark and cloudy, covering all the blazing sun.
The thick black sand obscured the sky and the sun, blocking the heat from the other side of the wild sand.
"It's a sandstorm!"
Under the power of Huanghuang Tianwei, Liu Xianglian couldn't help but feel a little frightened!
Well, how can there be a sandstorm!
Come on, it's just a little desert!
Above the nine heavens, there is a woman's arm stirring the wind and clouds, this is the police illusion fairy who made waves a while ago.
After being accidentally kissed by Liu Xianglian that day, his heart was unstable.
Later, the more I thought about it, the more angry I became!
After the Dao heart thumped, I felt that I was really miserable!
The little flower fairies and their sisters all went to the lower realm, leaving them alone to guard the vast and lonely Illusory Realm.
So, here she is again today!
Not only did she come, but she also discovered the loophole of the Nine Dragons Heaven Sealing Array!
"Step on the snow, lie down!"
In the face of sandstorms in the desert, the best way to deal with them is to stick to the ground.
As long as it is not buried, it is considered safe, and if it is a camel caravan, the huge camel is a natural barrier.
But now these horses, except for the snow, are too weak.
"Brothers, round the city hand in hand, keep your head down, and change your breathing patterns!
As long as we don't get caught up in quicksand, then there will be absolutely no problem!"
"No!"
Everyone hurriedly said and did!
More than sixty third-rate masters can't fight against such a heavenly power, but it's not too difficult to protect themselves.
WhewW......
The black wind howled, and the sand was like a storm, hitting everyone.
After a while, there was a strong feeling of pulling and pulling, and a moment there was a sense of oppression from the dust beating, and I don't know how long it took for Liu Xianglian to feel that the sand pressing on her body no longer vibrate!
"Boom!"
Liu Xianglian's internal force shook, and all the sand and soil on her body were scattered!
"Brethren, are you all alright!?"
"Poof......
"Poof......
One by one, they came out of the wind and sand.
"Young Master Liu, the brothers are all fine, there are quite a few of them. Eh, Young Master Liu, there's a guy there! It's like a woman."
"Really!"
The horses are more shrewd than people, and none of them have been caught in the quicksand under the guidance of stepping on the snow.
Liu Xianglian took a closer look, she was really a woman, a woman with a particularly pure and beautiful appearance, it was hard to imagine that in such a bitter cold place, there were still people who could be born so white as jade.
Liu Xianglian looked strange.
What kind of drama is this?
Is it still a monster?
But I'm not a Tang monk!
But this woman is too strange and eccentric, and Liu Xianglian doesn't want her people to fall into unknown danger.
"Lao Tian, it's true here
There's a woman, and she's beautiful, but I'm afraid she's dead, so let's hurry up, or the sandstorm will come back, but I don't know if there's such good luck."
"Boom",
As soon as Liu Xianglian turned her head to leave, the woman lying on the sand let out a soft groan, proving that she was not dead!
"Save ...... Save...... Me!" ……
Liu Xianglian knows that it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided.
Rather than let it go and face strange accidents in the future, it is better to see what kind of moth this woman has.
"Lao Tian, bring the water bag quickly!
This girl is not dead."
Liu Xianglian took the water bladder and poured it into the girl's cherry mouth.
"Ahem...... Ahem......"
A burst of fishy smell smoked the woman so much that she almost wanted to scold her mother.
"You are ......."
The woman opened her eyes, and her eyes were so beautiful that they were as bright as the stars, like a bottomless pool.
It's as pure as the blue sky now.
These eyes, Liu Xianglian always felt that she had seen them somewhere.
"We should be asking you, girl, who are you, and how did you end up here, barefoot?"
"I...... I can't remember."
"Lao Tian, prepare a pair of shoes for her."
Liu Xianglian turned to the mysterious woman and said, "Girl, I don't know why you are here and who you are.
But here it's a desert, and we're all poor people crossing the river with mud bodhisattvas.
So, if you want to survive, you'll have to follow us.
There are no preferential treatments, you understand?"
If I didn't know that you were a pervert and had a plural number of daughters, I would have thought that you were a humble gentleman who couldn't see beauty!
Wait for the old lady to recover her strength, I want you to look good.
"Childe, concubine...... The concubine seems to have been blown here by the wind, and she just wants to follow all the benefactors, and she doesn't dare to ask for extravagant treatment."
"Okay, let's go!"
Liu Xianglian knows that there must be a demon when things go wrong!
In this world, in addition to ordinary people, there are some masters who can't be perverted with common sense.
Liu Xianglian really can't help but doubt the origin of this woman.
The horse team continued to move forward, and Senior Sister Meng Meng had not returned.
As it darkened, the sand on the ground turned from hot to lukewarm, then cold again, and finally to bone-chilling.
The specific heat capacity of the sand is very small, so the temperature changes very quickly in the midst of temperature changes!
Before the moon hung in the sky, everyone could already feel the biting cold.
"Ouch."
The woman screamed, and as soon as her feet fell, she fell to the side.
Liu Xianglian saw the red blood under her feet, and her heart trembled, could it be that she was really just an ordinary person?
Is it that you are too careful!?
"What's wrong with you?"
"No...... I didn't ...... much."
The woman's eyes were dodgy, half-frightened, as if she was afraid of being left behind by the horses.
Liu Xianglian came to the woman and squatted down.
Before her hand could touch the woman's feet, the woman hurriedly shrunk, like a mimosa that had been touched, full of beauty.
"Don't move!"
Liu Xianglian picked up the woman's feet and saw that the thin shoes had been stained red with blood.
"These shoes don't fit, you said earlier, you have worn out so many blood blisters, and you are the one who suffers."
