Chapter 32: The Long Night Rages
A woman and three wicked people follow a puff of smoke and embark on a vast road to find the witch. Xiao Qingqian didn't want to make things so complicated, but judging from the current situation, it can only be like this, if he abolish it first, wouldn't all the hardships he had suffered before be in vain.
Walking all the way, all the eyes are full of sand and gravel, gravel and sand, although the sky can not see the sun, but it is also bright as a torch, as white as cotton wool glowing, at the moment is already dry mouth, feeling that the throat is about to fire, "Can you rest and go again?" Xiao Qingqian asked, her physical discomfort made her look very weak, and she probably wouldn't have been able to go that far without General Guo's support.
The three tyrants of the wilderness are accustomed to it, and their steps are extremely steady, and they move forward bravely with an attitude without doubt, "I can't go for five miles, and it's too early to rest." He talked about the three of them from day to night, and did not stop a step, and walked in the direction of the sky, for many years, but still did not come to the end, still in this vast desert, as if trapped in a circle, there was no beginning and no end, and then they felt that it was in vain, so they gave up.
Xiao Qingqian was moved when he heard this, and remembered some of his stupid but unhesitating past events, although the steps under his feet were still heavy, he had silently promised in his heart that if he could get out alive, he would definitely take them out with him, so that they could see the world beyond the yellow sand again.
But as he walked, the sky became more and more wrong, as if it was gradually about to be pressed down, and the distance above his head was getting closer and closer, Xiao Qingqian felt flustered and short of breath, especially uncomfortable, and asked with a residual breath: "Is this day going to fall?" ”
"It's getting dark, and night is falling." This sentence has been mentioned many times before by Lei Yantian, is there any special meaning? After a while, the day was changing with changes that could be seen with the naked eye, and in an instant it turned from daytime to rolling dark clouds, surging and rushing, sassy, and low hissing, like thousands of troops, and the world was dark.
"Is this going to rain hard? That's great. Xiao Qingqian asked, at this time she was extremely thirsty, and it would be good to have a rain.
However, the three of them were waiting for the battle, and the flying smoke that led the way seemed to be resisted, and the Evil Devouring Monarch strengthened the spell with a single operation, "The night is early, follow closely, lose your way, and you will fall into the boundless abyss." ”
At this time, the wind and sand have risen, those stones and sand rushed to the face, smashing painfully, "Find a place to hide......" Xiao Qingqian closed his eyes, bent down and hugged General Guo's arm, those wind and sand hit back and forth like a whirlpool, there was nowhere to hide, nowhere to escape. Even in such a bad situation, the three of them had no intention of stopping, "It's nothing, the night is still long." Thunder Tiger said as he walked backwards.
"It's nothing?! I'm going to die if I keep going like this. Just saying this, Xiao Qingqian ate a mouthful of sand, "Is there a way to stop this sandstorm......"
"Hahaha...... This is just the beginning. "General Guo hasn't paid attention to this bit of wind and sand at the moment, after all, this is just the prelude to the night, and those demons that can tear people apart haven't come out yet.
The dark sky finally came down, this time I really couldn't see anything clearly, I couldn't see my fingers, every step forward was difficult, and before the foot hit the ground, Xiao Qingqian didn't know whether it was sand or an abyss under her feet, if it weren't for General Guo on the side, she wouldn't be able to take a step.
When he was struggling to walk, a particularly terrible sound suddenly came, roaring, moaning, laughing, scolding, roaring, wild and all kinds of angry and terrifying voices were endless, "What is this sound?" Xiao Qingqian was about to explode when he heard this, fear pressed down on his heart, and the dark sky seemed to have turned into an infinite night demon and began to attack these fragile beings fiercely, and Xiao Qingqian was accidentally scratched by a sharp claw on his arm.
"Get into the sand!" Before Xiao Qingqian could react, he was directly pressed into the sand by General Guo, and those terrifying voices were still raging everywhere, looking for the target of the attack, especially Xiao Qingqian's strange and fresh breath, which became the focus of their attacks. General Guo also lay down, his other hand was protecting Xiao Qingqian, and Lei Xiaotian was also lying next to her head to protect, it was obvious that these night demons were specifically here to attack Xiao Qingqian this time, if Lei Yantian had fought back with his bare hands in the past, he would have been exhausted, but now he has a drag, so he can only attack by defending.
However, the night is the master of the desert, and it is easy for them to take away anyone, the unknown claws hooked Xiao Qingqian fiercely, and threw it into the air, and in an instant, many black shadows pounced on her, wanting to tear her apart and bite her, she didn't even have room to struggle, and at this moment, the astrolabe in her pocket emitted a thousand rays of light, and she stopped in mid-air, like a spell pattern drawn into a golden circle to enclose Xiao Qingqian, and also blocked the night on the periphery, Xiao Qingqian was saved, Those black shadows in a clump could no longer attack.
Under the protection of the golden light, Xiao Qingqian slowly descended to the ground, and the night did not retreat and did not attack her again, and finally picked up a life, and the three wicked people were dumbfounded, but they didn't expect that the most critical moment was the astrolabe that saved her.
Xiao Qingqian lay quietly on the sand, forgetting the pain, the panic just now had not completely dissipated in her eyes and heart, for a moment she thought she was going to die, until this moment she didn't feel that she was saved, she was safe, but finally got a quiet respite.
This night became long and quiet, the wind was low and hoarse in the distance, like the cold wind whistling outside the window on a winter night, blocked from the wall, Xiao Qingqian lay down very steadily, like nesting in a warm quilt, and fell asleep without scruples.
I don't know how long I slept, but Xiao Qingqian, who was still asleep, was woken up by General Guo, "Miss Xiao, wake up, wake up." ”
It took her a long time to come back to her senses and figure out where she was, wishing that everything that had happened before had been a dream, and that when she woke up, she was lying on her soft bed.
"Miss Xiao, wake up, if you continue to sleep like this, you will fall asleep forever."
"Oops...... It's not dawn yet, so let's sleep again. In addition to moving his mouth, Xiao Qingqian still lay down and didn't move.
"The nights are much longer than the days here, and it's time for you to wake up."
Xiao Qingqian was still motionless, and being woken up at this time was like having just stayed up all night, and being woken up at five or six o'clock after falling asleep, which was very annoying.
Lei Roaring Tiger couldn't stand it anymore, and said directly: "Carry it, carry it away." In this way, Xiao Qingqian was directly pulled up by General Guo, and in an instant she was awake and shouted: "Pain! Pain! Pain! My whole body hurts! My bones must have all shattered, leaving me dead. ”
"Who will take us out when you die?" General Guo said and directly picked up Xiao Qingqian and continued to hurry, it was really a journey of the stars and the moon, the sun and the moon.
"I'm probably useless." Even if someone walks on his back, Xiao Qingqian is still weak.
"Even if it's scrapped, you have to take us out, otherwise, we will disembowel you and eat it with a knife." Thunder Tiger threatened behind her.
"Not with such ...... Then I'll just barely endure the pain and live a few more days. ”
The Evil Devouring Monarch led the way in front, General Guo walked in the middle with Xiao Qingqian on his back, and the Thunder Tiger followed behind, there were no stars and no moon in the night, and the three of them walked like flying, as if they were full of confidence to do something big, and at first glance they were used to walking on night roads and deserts. However, Xiao Qingqian fell asleep again in the deep night, and when she woke up again after falling asleep, she found that it was still in the dark night, "Why is this night so long?" How long have we been gone? ”
"Dozens of miles."
"It's so far away, if you don't let me down, I'll walk by myself." Xiao Qingqian heard the panting sound in General Guo's words, and he was still a little embarrassed.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes, at most go a little slower." Xiao Qingqian slowly came down, and the moment she stood firm on the ground, she heard a "click~" sound from her back, and her spine suddenly hurt sharply, "uh......" But she still gritted her teeth, held her waist and tried to take the first step, with the help of General Guo, she could barely walk in the dark, but after a while, she fell far behind the Evil Devourer.
I don't know how long I walked in pain, suddenly the sky gradually changed, the wind and sand gradually rose, and the black night gradually made a big fuss like the wind and flying sand, and under the raging, the night finally dispersed, and the day finally came. The four of them were buried in the sand, and after the surroundings were quiet, Xiao Qingqian, who was still conscious, immediately crawled out of the sand, and the sudden light made her eyes unable to adapt to it for the time being, but the surroundings were really too quiet, and the other three people did not move, "General Guo!" Thunder Roar Days! Eater of Evil! Where are you all? ”
Xiao Qingqian hurriedly lay away from the sand next to him, but there was no trace of General Guo, obviously he was blown down by the wind and sand together, why didn't he see anyone? "General Guo! General Guo! Xiao Qing was in a hurry, could it be that they were all swept away by that night.
"Hahaha......" General Guo crawled out of the sand with a smile, and couldn't help but laugh when he saw Xiao Qingqian covered in mud and sand, and his face was as dirty as himself.
"You're still laughing! I thought you were blown away by this sandstorm. ”
"Don't laugh or laugh, you can survive this night, and you will be able to survive in this desert in the future."
"I can't wait to get out of here, what about the two of them?"
"Come ahead, we need to catch up!" General Guo stomped his feet and patted the sand on his body, ready to catch up.
Xiao Qingqian froze in place, looked at General Guo's back and walked forward, and said to his back quite embarrassed: "Hey! I can't leave......" General Guo turned around and rolled his eyes first, "Trouble!" I had to go back and carry her on my back.
A sandstone wall unexpectedly appeared in front of him, and Thunder Roaring Heaven and the Evil Devouring Monarch had arrived, looking like they had been waiting for a long time.
