The moment the stone door closed, the stone house disappeared in an instant, still in a vast wasteland, everything seemed to be true and false, and it was impossible to distinguish whether it was real or false.

Xiao Qingqian walked silently with her head down, holding the round bead given to her by the stone house in her hand, after coming out of the thousands of city walls, she harvested two things, a small wooden branch that had been following her, and this round bead, she faintly felt that some things were arranged, she just had to go through this experience.

"Miss Xiao, what's wrong with you, you're silent." General Guo saw that something was wrong with her.

"It's nothing, and suddenly everything feels so unreal."

"I guess you're tired, so don't stop and rest."

"No, we can walk a little more while it's still dark."

After walking for a while, Xiao Qingqian took out the astrolabe to see how to continue to go, but the astrolabe did not show anything, after coming out of the Nine Turns Star Lake, the astrolabe never gave more hints, and now it is all up to them to walk by feeling, even so, they have a hunch that the way out is not far.

The road ahead is still a wasteland, the alternation of day and night controls the rhythm of their walking, seeing that the sky is slightly different again, this time they are still in a wasteland, they can't see any different scenery, and even make people have an illusion, the illusion of returning to the wilderness, Xiao Qingqian is worried that there will be something strange again, staring at the astrolabe in the hope that a new prompt will appear, but there is still no.

A new sense of oppression followed, sullen, invisibly terrifying, and it was not difficult to imagine that with the arrival of the night, those dark shadows and ghosts would appear, and it was not known how to deal with them, and this time there was no second stone house to protect them. The atmosphere became more and more depressing, and the dark and gloomy sky slowly descended, and the round beads presented by the silk giant beast began to emit a faint white light, and it also reflected more and more the ghosts of the surrounding black and moving ghosts.

They began to walk slowly, and the night had come, but they had not yet found a safe and secure place to rest, so they had to keep walking. The light of the beads became fainter after leaving the silk beast, not as dazzling as before, but it could still light their way, and the black shadow ghosts did not get too close to them, after all, this bead was a pass out of the wasteland.

After walking through a gentle slope, Xiao Qingqian felt that the boundary in front of him was different, and the fine wind had the smell of earth, unlike the environment they had walked in before, Xiao Qingqian knew that the blind man's nose was sensitive, so he asked, "What is the place in front?" ”

"A lot of sand."

"In that case, let's stop here tonight, and then move on a cloudy day." Xiao Qingqian said and looked around and wanted to take everyone to find a place to sit down and rest, but there were black shadows and ghosts around them, and they didn't dare to act rashly, for fear that those things would pounce on them, "Rest in place, pay more attention to the black shadows next to you." ”

"Do you want someone to keep a vigil?" General Guo asked.

"Yes, you guard first and then me, and finally the Evil Devourer, okay?"

There is no objection to everyone, so that's it, the blind are not arranged because the blind may not be able to sense all of them when those dark shadows are silent. After everyone sat down on the ground, they stopped talking, they were tired enough along the way, or hurry up and rest, Xiao Qingqian sat for a while, touched the ground behind him and was quite flat, and lay down on the spot without any will, anyway, it was not the first time to sleep on the ground, just think of it as the sky and the ground as the bed, the small wooden branch on her head was still interesting, and she was afraid that her head would take the initiative to get out of the bun and lie aside.

The smell of the soil at the bottom made her feel familiar, just like the earthy smell of peanuts and soybeans in the field during the summer vacation, there was an indescribable sense of intimacy, she really wanted to leave this astrolabe as soon as possible and return to her own world, she had already thought about calling her father as soon as she went out, it didn't matter what she wanted to say, maybe it was still those few words: whether you had eaten, how much alcohol you drank, whether there was an attack of joint pain, etc., in fact, it didn't matter what she said, The important thing is that she finally found out that there was a father waiting for her to return in that world.

She even thought about how to settle General Guo and the others after they went out, the outside world is a world they have never understood, and there are many things to learn and get used to, but after going out, you still have to discuss it with Master Guangchen first, as for the identity and life experience, it is okay to go to the local relief department to seek help, and when asked, it is easy to say that it is a wandering black household, it is easy for the evil eater and General Guo to make a living and beg for a bowl of rice, they have strength and resourcefulness, but it is more difficult for the blind to do it, the blind can't see the temper and the weather is uncertain. It's definitely not good to deal with people, but the appearance is quite good-looking, and it shouldn't be difficult for good-looking people to find a way to make a living, and I promised to take him to see an ophthalmologist before, but I don't know if he can be cured.

Just when Xiao Qingqian was thinking wildly, General Guo and the Evil Devouring Monarch were already snoring, as long as it wasn't danger in front of them, they could sleep anywhere, but fortunately, with the round beads given by the stone house, those black shadows and ghosts didn't pounce, so that they could sleep peacefully, thinking about all this is not too bad.

Suddenly, there was a sound of "huh" from the opposite side, so violent that it was like a storm coming, Xiao Qingqian suddenly stared ahead, holding his breath and listening to the movement ahead, like the sound of flying sand and rocks, they had also met it in the wilderness before, but the one in front seemed to be more intense, and after a while, the wind finally blew over and was accompanied by mud and sand, and the black shadows and ghosts around him fled one after another, it seems that the front is not simple.

Xiao Qingqian looked around and thought about whether to move to another place, and the blind man seemed to have been paying attention to the movement in front of him, and said, "It's okay, there seems to be a whirlpool ahead, and you can't get over." ”

"Well, you can hear that, too." Xiao Qingqian replied that the Evil Devouring Monarch also woke up, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's supposed to be a sandstorm, it didn't sweep over, but let's change places for safety." Xiao Qingqian didn't want to bury them all in the mud and sand after a night, after waking up General Guo, they began to walk up the gentle slope, the light of the round beads was weaker than when it was just night, and the corresponding surrounding black shadows and ghosts were closer, and they walked to the top of the slope in the midst of danger. The wind was blowing along the gentle slope to the top of the slope, as if driving them, and they moved to the leeward side, but there were a lot of stones on this side.

The ground was pitch black, Xiao Qingqian didn't pay attention to what was under their feet, and when they walked to a boulder, they didn't know who stepped on a living thing, and a scream of "horn" pierced the eardrum, and they were shocked, followed by the "poof" sound of the group taking off, a group of black things flew up from the ground, and the action was so fast that they didn't have time to take a closer look at what it was, but they couldn't help but startle, Xiao Qingqian took a round bead and took a picture at his feet, only to see a lump of black mucus under General Guo's feet, that thing should have been stepped on, Can't see what.

However, a strange scene appeared, a few black things flew back again, in the dark night the sound of their wings was particularly clear, and accompanied by the sound of a baby crying and a cat meowing, and flying up and down irregularly, Xiao Qingqian raised the beads to try to see what it was, but they all flew too fast and disappeared in an instant.

From time to time, there was a flash of black shadows in the faint light, ghosts, and the moments were terrifying, "What the hell is this, the cry is so terrible." Xiao Qingqian couldn't help asking.

"Whatever, let's find a place to sleep again." General Guo rubbed the lump under his feet on the stone and replied carelessly, he has experienced so many risks, as long as it is not life-threatening, it is a small wind and waves.

The Evil Devourer didn't think so, and trapped one in a small array, and the wonderful thing was that the thing slipped out without being trapped like black smoke, and then a more shocking scene appeared, the black shadow ghost hidden on the side suddenly attacked and opened his mouth to eat the thing, and in the blink of an eye, it was too unbelievable, and after the thing was eaten, more black shadows flew back, and you screamed one by one, which made people get goosebumps.

The black shadow ghost was interested, opened its huge mouth and swallowed half of the group, and the regular cries that had just come and gone in the chaos were also disrupted, and they screamed wildly, the evil devouring king and Xiao Qingqian didn't understand the situation, watching all this happen, the black shadow ghost they didn't dare to provoke, although the flying thing didn't hurt them, they didn't know what it was, they could only watch and dare not interfere.

What's even more unexpected is that the black shadow ghost seems to have not eaten and turned his head to attack them, Xiao Qingqian was directly knocked to the ground, the round bead in his hand also fell, the bead rubbed down the slope, several of them fell into the darkness all of a sudden, without the protection of the round bead, the black shadow ghost became more and more proud, thinking that they were already in the bag, how to think that the black shadow ghost hidden on the side was also waiting for the opportunity to move, one after another tightly or slowly came over to get a piece of the pie, and the black shadow screaming in the air was even more poignant.

Needless to say, the fight suddenly started, all kinds of screams and fights were endless, there were black shadows and ghosts trying to sneak attack them, and in the blink of an eye, they were pounced by another black shadow ghosts, entangled and fighting, the scene was chaotic, Xiao Qingqian quickly stood up under the support of General Guo, and the only way to do this is to pick up the round beads back, protect himself and at the same time calm the fight of the black shadows.

"You cover me, I'll pick up the balls!" Xiao Qingqian said that the cat bent down and prepared to rush to the bottom of the slope.

Seeing that the black shadows were fighting in full swing, General Guo thought that it was too risky for Xiao Qing to go down, so he said: "I'll come, you stay with the blind man, devour the evil to cover me, I'll pick it up." ”

"Okay, stay safe."

"Don't worry."

After saying that, General Guo and the Evil Devourer rushed left and right from the crack in the black shadow and rushed towards the round bead, Xiao Qingqian took a few steps back and stood beside the blind man, those black shadow ghosts saw that there was a change on their side, and immediately began to surround and attack General Guo, fortunately, the strange magic of the Evil Devouring King could last for a while, and fortunately, the round bead did not completely roll down to the bottom of the slope and was blocked by a stone, in the left and right dodge, General Guo avoided a lot of attacks, but still fell twice, and finally picked up the round bead under the cover of the Evil Devourer.

However, the situation on Xiao Qingqian's side does not seem to be good, some of the black shadow ghosts also took advantage of this to attack them, and they didn't dare to get close to the blind man when they were angry, those black shadow ghosts were obviously afraid of him, General Guo picked up the beads again, and the black shadow ghosts didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore and gradually stopped fighting, and then hid in the dark.
