Chapter 133: Desert Insect Shadow!
The southern part of the Siqi Oasis is littered with broken tents, which were the homes of the residents who once lived here.
In this ruined land, more than 100,000 people died in one night, and the white bones were all over the place. Some tribal priests are casting spells here to purify and dispel the resentment of the dead, fearing that a plague will breed and pollute the water sources in the oasis.
Accompanied by more than a dozen elders of the Xiqi Oasis, the four of Chen Hao searched for more detailed clues here, and everyone squatted down from time to time to observe the traces left by the disaster, or opened the scattered tents to look for traces of the survivors.
"I didn't expect that there wasn't even a drop of blood left, it seems that it really wasn't a soul-destroying sandstorm, only some unique beasts would be so bloodthirsty, and there was no flesh and blood left everywhere they passed!" The crowd buried their heads in the ruins in search of new clues.
"Look, this is the trace left by the real murderer!" Senior brother Mo Tie found a leg bone of a minotaur in the ruins, and found that there were several clear tooth marks on it.
The tooth marks were neat, deep into the bones, clearly marking two marks on the leg bones, and the bone marrow inside the bones was sucked dry.
"Knock the bone and suck the marrow, devour the flesh and blood, our vampire clan has indeed raised a few emperor-level blood bats in the imperial city to be able to do this. However, this is the land of the Western Desert, and there can be no blood bats. The second senior brother Decuso, who had not spoken, saw the appearance of the leg bones and spoke.
"Great Elder, do you know the direction in which the sandstorm receded? It has been a few days since the disaster occurred, and if you don't pursue it again, the real culprit may wander through the major oases in the Western Desert Land to commit crimes, and then it will be in trouble. Senior Brother Mo Tie asked with a serious expression.
"Heading in the southwest direction, the elders of your sect's outer sect and the two elders of our Siqi have lost their bodies at a huge sand dune sixty thousand miles away in this direction. The old man raised his hand and pointed in one direction, his expression showing a little fear.
"Southwest direction, thank you for the guidance of the Great Elder, let's leave it to our senior brother to deal with next. Your combat power is too weak. I'm afraid that it will cause losses to you at that time, after all, the strength of our outer sect elders and emperors is also weakened, and we can't escape under the real murderer. ”
Senior brother Mo Tie said, and recruited Chen Hao and the three of them to his side. Then he raised his head to the sky and roared, and a white figure fell from the sky.
This inverted figure is the white-feathered eagle that carried Chen Hao and them here, Mo Tie shouted at the white figure, and his eight-meter-long body flapped his wings and stopped steadily beside everyone.
"Xiaobai, send us to the southwest 60,000 miles away!"
The four of them boarded the white feather eagle's broad back. He began to rush towards the place where the elders of the outer sect of the Heaven Shou Sect had disappeared.
......
The white-feathered eagle flew very fast, and it only took two hours to reach the distance of 60,000 li.
Chen Hao and the four of them were high in the sky and found the huge sand dunes that the old man of the rhinoceros man said.
"Xiaobai, hover in place for a while. Senior Brother Mo Tie ordered the White Feather Eagle not to descend, staring at the huge sand dunes below with a solemn expression.
A long trajectory stretched from this huge sand dune in the direction of the Xiqi Oasis, and Chen Hao did not find this track on the part of the road where they came, it should have been hidden by the wind and sand.
"What is the trail left by this? Could it be the real culprit who attacked the Siqi Oasis?" The elder brother asked.
"The trajectories are so dense and the diversions are so pronounced. The real murderer must be some kind of social beast!" The White Night Maiden observed the shape of the trajectory and spoke her thoughts.
"I agree with the third senior sister's opinion, since this kind of group desolate beast can threaten an outer sect elder who exists at the emperor level, if we go down rashly, we will definitely not be able to avoid a big war. Second Senior Brother Decuso said.
"At present, the figure of the real murderer has not been found, but the trajectory to the disappearance of this sand dune, it should be possible to boldly predict that this is the lair of the real murderer below, or there should be a road underground!" Chen Hao said his opinion. The other three nodded in agreement.
"In that case, let's go down first. If you encounter danger, take Xiaobai off as soon as possible. If the four of us can't deal with it, we must call the master or the sect master to come out. Senior Brother Mo Tie patted Xiaobai's back and motioned for it to go down.
The wings more than ten meters long flapped violently, and the white-feathered eagle carried Chen Hao and the four of them down from the sky and slowly landed on the huge sand dune.
The flapping wings caused gusts of gale. The yellow sand was blown everywhere, and the senior brother Mo Tie jumped down from the back of the white feather eagle first, and after exploring the place for a while, he found no abnormality, and the three of Chen Hao jumped down with him.
"The real culprit should have escaped from here. Second, it's up to you next. Senior Brother Mo Tie explored the sand dunes, and then said to Second Senior Brother Decuso.
"No problem, those who can work harder. Decuso's eyes narrowed, his slender hands crossed over his chest, and the blood-red cloak draped over him danced wildly.
"Bloodline Secret Method: Sonic Detection!"
A red light flashed in Decuso's eyes, and he opened his mouth to let out a piercing scream.
Ripples of sound emanated from Decuso's mouth, vibrating in all directions, grazing over the surface of the dunes.
As the sound waves passed, information kept coming back to Decuso's mind.
"Found it!
As if sensing something, the second senior brother Decuso stopped screaming, and then gracefully stretched out his right hand, pointing at one end of the dune.
"Drink!"
The elder brother stepped forward, jumped high from the dunes, and slammed his fist into where Decuso was pointing.
"Boom!"
The yellow sand splashed, and a large black hole appeared in an instant, and the entrance of the big hole was blocked by countless white saliva threads, so it could not be seen with the naked eye outside. But through Decuso's sonic detection, it was discovered at once.
"Woooooo
In the bottomless cave, gusts of wind blew out from the depths of the cave, and Chen Hao surrounded the mouth of the cave, and did not blindly go down to explore.
"Next, I'll open the way in front, second brother, your sound wave detection should be turned on at any time, and the junior sister and junior brother will follow closely at the end. If you find that the situation is not right, immediately return the same way and go back to the sect for help. "Senior brother Mo Tie is very calm. Imagine the worst-case scenario.
Chen Hao and the three of them all nodded in agreement, and then followed Mo Tie into the dark cave in order.
......
"Woooooo
When Chen Hao fell, he only felt that the wind blowing in the cave was very violent, and the sound of the wind in his ears kept ringing.
Probably due to the hindrance of the wind, the speed of the four people when they fell was not very fast, and after descending to a depth of about three hundred meters, they finally touched the bottom of the cave.
A cave three hundred meters deep. The light outside had become very faint, and the view of the four of them was obscured by the darkness.
"Monarch Status: Dark Night Travel!"
The voice of the third senior sister sounded from the darkness, and a soft power enveloped Chen Hao's body, Chen Hao's eyes surged with blue fire, and the surrounding scene was clearly visible.
"What is this?" Chen Hao asked a question, and the White Night Saintess came over and patted Chen Hao on the shoulder with a smile.
"Little junior brother, I forgot to tell you, senior sister is half a priest! If you are injured, you can come to senior sister, senior sister's orthopedic technique is very good. The White Night Saintess smirked.
"Senior sister. Don't tease Chenhao, let's get up to the twelve-point spirit. "Senior brother Mo Tie, as the leader of the four, has always been very steady.
After the support status bonus of the White Night Maiden, the four of them were able to clearly see the surrounding scene in the dark.
The place where Chen Hao and the four of them fell was a hemispherical cave, and the stone walls of the cave seemed to have been eaten by some kind of creature, and there were clear tooth marks everywhere.
A wide passage appeared on the side of the cavern, and it was from this passage that the sound of "whining" came out.
"Silly big guy. Look, there are three bodies here!" The White Night Maiden seems to have discovered something. Hurriedly stopped Senior Brother Mo Tie.
The other three gathered around and found three gnawed skeletons lying in a corner of the cave, and the tooth marks on those skeletons were very clear.
"It should be the missing Outer Sect Elder, the other two are the two elders who led the way in the Xiqi Oasis, these tooth marks are exactly the same as the marks on the leg bone found in the southern part of the oasis before!"
"You can't be wrong, the real culprit should be to climb up this cave into the desert. Then attack the Siqi Oasis. In other words, you can find the real murderer by following this passage!" Senior Brother Mo Tie squatted down, observed the clues left by the three skeletons, and judged.
"Woooooo
At this moment, a violent gust of wind blew in the passage on the side of the cave. The wind was mixed with the smell of blood.
"Rustle. ”
There was another noise, and the expressions of the four people in the cave changed suddenly, they knew that the feet of something seemed to be crawling on the ground quickly, and the number was extremely amazing!
The four of them quickly approached the entrance of the passage and looked inside, but they found that the passage was winding and twisty, and they could not see what was behind them after a bend.
"Rustle!"
The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer, and the purple lines on Senior Brother Mo Tie's body flashed in bursts, and a huge aura of power flowed around him.
The second senior brother, Decuso, was also in full swing, and his blood-red cloak turned into a puddle of blood and flowed all over the ground. Only Chen Hao and the White Night Saintess were hiding behind them, waiting for the impending meeting!
......
"Hiss!"
A sharp sound came from the corner of the passage, and a figure two meters long suddenly appeared against the wall of the passage. Behind this figure, countless creatures of the same size crawled out, countless pairs of bulb-like eyes glowing blood-red in the darkness, and they suddenly looked at the four Chen Hao at the entrance of the passage.
Eight slender feet, a long poisonous hook, two pincers kept swaying in front of him, and blood-red eyes were clearly visible in the darkness.
"It's a sand scorpion!
In the darkness, Senior Brother Mo Tie recognized the true identity of this group of scorpions, and then took a step forward, slamming his fists on the ground of the passage.
"Boom!"
The power of the imperial level erupted from Mo Tie's fists, shaking the entire passage, and countless sand and gravel fell from the top of the passage, instantly submerging the passage dozens of meters in front of him.
But in the next moment, countless half-meter-long green wind blades flew out through the passage flooded by sand and gravel, slashing at Mo Tie's body.
"Iron Body!"
The wind blades swept over Mo Tie's body, bringing up bursts of sparks, and then shot into the walls of the cave.
The passage buried by sand and gravel was opened in an instant!
Countless pairs of blood-red eyes stared at the four of Chenhao, as if they were about to devour the four of them in the next moment.
Chen Hao's mind flashed through a conversation with Deacon Xiao about the three major natural disasters of the Western Desert when he first entered the land of the Western Desert.
"The first of the three natural disasters is the wind sand scorpion swarm!"
