Volume 2: Drifting Away Chapter 122: Encounter!
When I returned to the Sea of Death, I saw that the storm had long since disappeared, and the desert had returned to its previous state, and there was no life except dead silence. However, Mo Qingyu was gone, and he didn't know where he was blowing with the storm now......
But in the middle of this desert, there were still two people walking, one middle-aged and the other child-like, both dressed in tattered clothes and covered with yellow sand, like homeless people begging outside.
"Uncle, uncle, you wait for me!" I saw the young man panting and following behind the middle-aged man, shouting non-stop.
"You stinky boy, if you've been swallowing slowly like this, how can you find the storm spirit?"
"It's okay! With such a powerful figure as my uncle, can I still be afraid that the storm spirit will run away?"
When the middle-aged man heard this, he turned to look at the young man who was chasing after him, and when he came to his side, he stretched out his left hand to the top of his head and played with his hair indiscriminately.
"Uncle, it hurts! If you bully me like this again! When I go back, I'll tell my father and mother! See if they don't clean you up and avenge Xiang'er!"
"Yo, you dare to threaten your uncle at a young age, see if your uncle doesn't teach you a lesson!"
The two of them played for a while before they stopped, sat casually on the sand under their feet, and took out some dry food and drinking water to quench their hunger and thirst.
But when the two of them were full and ready to get up and continue their journey, the young man had just taken a step, and he felt as if something was pulling at his left foot, and he looked down curiously, and immediately jumped up in fright, and shouted with his eyes closed: "Uncle, uncle, there is a sandman! Quickly, it grabbed Xiang'er's ankle!"
"Huh?" When the middle-aged man heard this, he turned his head to look at it full of doubts, and when he saw the hand stained with sand, he first felt a little strange, and then sighed: "With such a small courage as you, how can you be able to master the martial arts and ascend the road to the Great Dao?"
After comforting the young man, he dug the owner of the hand out of the sand, but the man was now unconscious, but fortunately, his breath was still mellow, and he didn't seem to be in trouble.
"Xiang'er, you can see clearly, this is clearly a young man, how can it be that chubby sand man?"
"Huh?" the boy slowly opened his eyes when he heard this, and looked at the figure that was almost covered with sand, although his current appearance was a little embarrassed and weird, but it was indeed a person!
"Uncle, uncle, you, you said he was still alive?"
"You should still be alive now, but if you sit a little longer, or jump a few more times, you won't be far from death......
"Forehead......" The boy didn't know how to answer for a while, but he just squatted down and peeled off the sand and dirt off the young man's body piece by piece.
When he was completely revealed, he fed him some water, and then sat aside and waited quietly.
"Uncle, you see that he is carrying a big box behind him, could it be a traveling merchant or something?"
"Well......" When the middle-aged man heard this, he didn't rush to answer, but looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but feel that the big box didn't seem to be extraordinary! After all, such a material or the patterns carved on it were extremely rare, and it was extremely precious and exquisite.
"Uncle, what are you looking at? Why don't you reply to Xiang'er?" Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, the boy suddenly urged a little impatiently, as if he was very interested in the inexplicable man who suddenly appeared.
"Xiang'er, let's go, it seems that he can't die now. ”
"Uncle, if we leave, what will happen if this big brother encounters a sand monster?"
"Hmph! That's his retribution!"
"Why did my uncle say that?"
"You see that the corners of his eyes are full of evil, and there is evil in his anger! The soldier box he is carrying, and the spears and swords inside him are stained with countless blood, warming the fierce spirit!"
When the boy heard this, he looked at it carefully, but he never found what his uncle said, but he did not question it in the slightest, but he still put some dry food and drinking water beside him, and then followed the middle-aged man into the distance.
I think everyone has guessed that this rescued young man is Mo Qingyu who was buried in the sand after a big storm! But at this time he was very weak. After all, in the face of such a huge storm, it is rare to be able to survive a catastrophe!
"Hmm...... Okay, it hurts......" I opened my eyes in a daze, in addition to the stinging pain caused by a little light and the golden yellow of a piece of sand, there seemed to be something like a water bladder, but I may have been in a coma for too long, and my eyes were a little blurry and I couldn't see clearly.
Sit up with all your might, knead your temples with both hands, and wait until you have eased down a bit before looking again.
Sure enough, what I saw earlier was indeed a water bladder, and a piece of white flour wrapped in a coarse cloth, which was quietly placed beside me.
"Is there anyone else here?" muttered softly, as he stood up and looked in all directions, but found nothing, nothing but the desert as far as the eye could see......
"Lingling, do you know who has been here?"
"Hmph! You kid better observe your own goodness first! You still have the heart to take care of those two fools!"
When Mo Qingyu heard this, he didn't know what was wrong with Lingqi and why he was so angry, but one thing was certain, that is, two people saved him!
But in this desert, it is really difficult to find these two benefactors, but walking outside to help, people may not want this kindness.
"Forget it, since there is no way to find it, then let it be fate, if you meet it in the future, you must thank you well......" While eating the dry and hard white flour cake, while carefully drinking the precious drinking water, his eyes looked into the distance in confusion, and he didn't know what he was thinking, except for an ethereal piece in his mind, he didn't seem to want to think about anything......
After the water and food were full, he put his hands behind his head and lay down casually, but he fell asleep after a breath, although he had been in a coma for an unknown amount of time, but the fatigue of the body had not been relieved at all, and now he had no other feeling except fatigue.
It took two days and nights to wake up, and the strength of the body also recovered a little, but for some reason, I always felt that something was wrong, as if the Xuan Qi in the body had been hollowed out all of a sudden.
"This kind of feeling seems to have only appeared when the Qi Sealing Qi reached the top, but there are no outsiders here, how can this feeling occur?" muttered, suddenly remembering the previous information of the spirit, he quickly sat down and closed his eyes to concentrate, and checked all parts of his body......
I saw that the veins in the body seemed to be invaded by something, and there were stagnation everywhere, but I was afraid that even if I went far now, the dantian qi in my body would be obstructed, no wonder I felt uncomfortable in my body.
"Lingling, what should I do now? Can you use the Xuan Qi to help it recover sooner?"
"No, if it is lucky, it will only become more and more chaotic, not only will it not get any effect, but it will make the veins even more stagnant. ”
"Then how do I deal with the problem at hand, and can't I let it go on like this?"
"Although your veins have been strengthened in many ways, it is precisely because of this that once there is a problem, it cannot be easily solved, and the only way to do this now is to let it recuperate and ease it on its own. ”
"But there are mostly sand monsters here, if you can't travel the Xuan Qi, what should you do if you encounter those troubles?"
"Haha, boy, have you forgotten what you came to this Sea of Death for?"
"What ...... for" Mo Qingyu couldn't help muttering softly when he heard this, and suddenly remembered that he had come to strengthen his body and state of mind?
I don't have to say much if I figure it out, but I have worked hard to walk before, and now I haven't gained anything, and I have to choose a new direction, if I keep going like this, I really don't know what year and month I can get out of here.
Thinking about the little joy in my heart, I was instantly extinguished by a basin of cold water, but now it is useless to rely on fantasy at all, only one step at a time, I hope that I will not encounter those sandstorms or other visions of heaven and earth in the future......
The gathering place of the Lost Swamp Demon Clan, at this time, one lord and one battle, the four envoys and the seven yin evils, all of them are in the demon lord's tent, but except for the conversation between the two, the others only have to bow their heads and listen.
"Lao Hong, is your method really useful?"
"I don't know if it's useful yet, but we occupy the excellent terrain, and the Heavenly Chosen Alliance naturally doesn't dare to step into it easily, but we can be dispatched to harass us at any time.
"That's right, after all, this place is too remote, and there are many mutations, if it weren't for the illusion demon and others to arrange it first, I'm afraid it would be difficult for us to enter it ourselves, not to mention that now that there are all kinds of formation prohibitions, it will be even more difficult for other human cultivators to set foot in half a step!"
"It is precisely because of this that the current situation has been created, so that the Heaven's Chosen Alliance can only defend everywhere, while we can wantonly disrupt it!"
When Gu Mo heard this, a slight smile suddenly appeared in the corners of his eyes, after all, the situation at this moment was very favorable to him!
"Then, in your opinion, where should you go next time to disturb it?"
"This time it's just a place to send troops, they have already guessed our intentions in their hearts, if they follow this method again, I'm afraid it will be difficult to work, it's time to move seriously!"
"Oh, isn't it too early to get real now, and that's not the only thing we have to do?"
"The Lord has already made a decision in his heart, why ask me Lao Hong everywhere, you might as well tell me about it. ”
"Haha......" Seeing Hong Liezhong's gloomy face, Gu Mo couldn't help but shake his head and laughed: "If you talk about understanding the two of them, the master is not as good as you, but if you say that you will be harassed, the master can go up!"
"Okay! Since the lord has given the letter, then three days later, my Lao Hong will lead the team directly to the outside of the Full Moon City to shout, and the demon lord will continue to harass the Fallen God City, and then the four envoys will go to Sikong City together!"
"Wonderful, wonderful, the two of us are distributed on both sides, making it difficult to look at the end between the three cities!"
However, there is movement here, and the Heavenly Chosen Alliance will naturally not let it be slaughtered! The White Emperor and Chu Xinghai were located in their residences, still staring at the chessboard that day when they only played one son.
"Big brother, do you see what they're going to do?"
"Haha, the third child seems to be the most generous, but there are a lot of ghost ideas, I think they just want to disturb the cultivators of my Heavenly Chosen Alliance at this time, making people's hearts gradually panic!"
"I've guessed this, but what are they doing this for? Aren't we both for the same thing?"
"Xinghai ......" After hearing this, the White Emperor looked up at him with a smile and didn't smile until he felt that he was being stared at before he smiled and said: "It's true that the same thing is the same, but have you thought about it in the future?"
"Hmm, you're saying they're not just here for this, they're preparing to get out of that Netherworld!"
"Yes, yes, you need to know what is the main and what is the auxiliary, so that you can guess what the demons are trying to do, or guess what they will do next!"
"Big brother, I understand Lao Chu, then everything is up to you!"
Chu Xinghai's words fell, and the White Emperor did not give the next step, but picked up a black piece again, landed in the middle of the chessboard, and dropped a white character on its side, so that this game of chess seemed to have begun to move!
Although Mo Qingyu has many stagnation in the meridians in his body, resulting in the inability to flow qi normally, and it will be accompanied by some pain from time to time, but after experiencing the pain of the Nine Turns Spirit Rock Fruit, Condensing Needle Sealing Acupoint, and Geocentric Red Flame, he has long been unable to care about these pains.
However, as the days passed, I became more and more unable to understand why the meridians in my body had become the way they were? Could it be related to that strange sandstorm? But the next moment, I denied it, after all, my current body, both inside and outside, was no longer invincible to ordinary cultivators! Unless, ......
"That's right! There must be something strange in that sandstorm! Otherwise, how could it only hurt the body, and there was no scar on the outside!" Suddenly thinking about this, he suddenly jumped up with a cry of surprise, but forgot that he was walking on a sand dune at the moment, and rolled down without paying attention, falling to the ground on all fours.
Although he grinned in pain, he looked at the particularly dazzling brightness above, and unconsciously fell into deep thought.
After all, the sun, moon and stars here have long been obscured by that strange black mist, and all the light is emitted by the fragments of the divine soul! In this case, why has there never been a dazzling feeling in other places, but in this sea of death, the light in the desert will be extraordinarily strong?
Or is there something that people don't know about here, and that's what makes this place so different? But what could it be?
"Stinky boy, what are you doing?!It's just a fall, and you're still lazy! If you keep going like this, when will you get out of this sea of death? When will you see your longing girl again?"
Listening to Linglu's questioning, Mo Qingyu didn't think so, but continued to lie down and look up at the sky, as if he didn't understand and stopped moving forward......
"Gu boy, this stinky boy is very strange. ”
"Oh, but the deity seems to have sensed something wrong......"
"What do you mean? Does that mean there's something wrong here?"
When Gu Chenyang heard this, he didn't give any response, just locked his eyebrows there and pondered, and Mo Qingyu also didn't have any response, just lying there quietly in a daze, as if there was only that piece of sky left in his mind, and nothing else......
Only the Bladeless Sword Spirit was left puzzled, what did these two people discover, or what did they do!
Time passed minute by minute, and before I knew it, the sky had darkened, and it was only at this time that Mo Qingyu let out an exclamation and stood up!
"I see!haha!"
"What's wrong with you stinky boy?! Why did you be silent for a day, but then suddenly like this? Is it to scare the spirit to death?!"
"Spirits, do you know?!I saw the stars! That's definitely the stars! And it's the so-called Morning Star!"
"What?!stars?!What nonsense?!" The spirit also exclaimed, after all, it seems that all the stars here have fallen a long time ago due to the battle of gods and demons!
"It's true! Spirit! Maybe the so-called starfall just happened to meet a meteor shower! The original starfall mountain range happened to be an ocean! As the sea evaporated, the fog rose to cover the stars!"
"Well, what the hell are you talking about?!Even so, how do you know for sure what kind of morning star it is?!"
"Because the morning star is also called Chang Gung Star, that is, Venus, in the west when the sun sets, the dawn in the east flashes twice a day, Venus is the brightest star in the sky except for the sun and the moon! And now I have been here for more than half a year, it should be the so-called February and March! At this time, it is the time when the days are long and the nights are short!"
"Then it is day and night, and you speak of dawn?"
"Oh?" Mo Qingyu didn't say anything when he heard this, but just stood up with a smile and walked towards the direction where he found the morning star.
"You stinky boy is talking! Don't hang on to your spirit's appetite!"
"Haha, you don't understand what the kid said, so why bother asking too much?
"You...... The spirit wants to see how you get out!"
Hearing the very dissatisfied answer, Mo Qingyu was unmoved at all and continued to walk towards the identified direction. As for why they didn't answer, because their explanation was like a wordless book to them, it was better to wait until they went out and let him see what the facts were!
In this way, he also changed the schedule of the previous days, and now he slept soundly during the day, and did not remember the direction he had taken before, and did not wake up until it was almost night, and continued to walk towards the so-called morning star.
In this way, another three days passed, and the meridians in the body finally improved slightly, and the number of pains in the past became less and less.
Looking inward, I saw that the depression had gradually subsided, and it would not be long before it would return to its previous state.
Moreover, in the past few days, I have not encountered any sand monsters, as if they also need to rest, and rarely come out to walk at night, but as long as they do not move during the day, they will not be found, but they have also saved a lot of energy.
On this day, watching the sky gradually brighten, Mo Qingyu just lay down and closed his eyes, and after sleeping for less than a moment, he heard a faint exclamation not far away, originally thought it was a hallucination, so he didn't pay attention to it, but the voice seemed to be approaching him, and he had to stand up in desperation.
Walking to a sand dune and looking at the source of the sound, he saw two small black dots moving rapidly towards his location, and behind them seemed to be flowing sand. Don't think much about the small black dot must be two people, as for the flowing sand, it is naturally a unique sand monster here.
Although he has often been misunderstood for many days, and his heart has also been infected by the so-called dry and evil qi, Mo Qingyu, who is kind-hearted, still couldn't help but take out the gun and sword in the box behind him and greeted them!
"Uncle, uncle, Daddy, have they said that there will be more than a dozen sand monsters here at a time!"
"I've never heard of it! Xiang'er! Why don't you let your uncle hug you?! Now you have exhausted yourself!"
"Xiang, Xiang'er is already an adult! No, you don't need such care from your uncle!"
Looking at the boy with a determined expression, the middle-aged man's face showed a look of appreciation, and then he swung a few blades of sword qi at the sand man behind him to stop the speed of those sand monsters!
"Well, someone seems to be running towards us in front!" When he turned around and continued to run, he found a figure in front of him constantly rushing towards him, and hurriedly shouted, "Don't come here! There are more than a dozen sand monsters here!"
Mo Qingyu wanted to respond when he heard the shout, but when he heard what he meant, he couldn't help but stop! After all, there were more than a dozen sand monsters! What a terrifying existence was that?!
However, thinking that the other party would kindly remind himself in such a crisis, his heart couldn't help but warm, and the next moment he accelerated the speed of moving forward! At the same time, he shouted: "Thank you for the reminder, big brother! But the little brother still has some strength! Why don't you fight the enemy together?!"
After that, the two of them were speechless and continued to run towards each other! The sand monster behind them was still chasing after them, as if they had to leave the two in front of them!
"Take your body as a soldier! Concentrate your energy in your body! Move at will! Explore the dragon!"
"Love is as sad as the moon!Parting is missing!The waning moon is sorrowful!The moon is like a cold front!The waning moon is slashed! Break the army!"
When the two sides met, Mo Qingyu immediately used the six forms of the Heavenly Spear and rushed towards the dozen or so sand monsters behind him!
For a moment, the two of them seemed to have forgotten that they could not recover and refine their spiritual energy here, and they cast spells one after another to bombard and kill more than a dozen sand monsters on the opposite side!
In fact, you can't blame the two of them for doing this, mainly because there are too many sand monsters, if they still compete with the strength of their physique, they are afraid that the consumption will be greater, so it is better to get rid of them in one go, and then do it safely to cultivate.
The sparks of yellow sand were overwhelming! For a while, the two of them couldn't open their eyes at all, except for the constant slashing and stabbing by feeling.
The boy was behind the two of them, also holding a scimitar, quickly condensing the knife qi and slashing forward.
However, because he was still young and his strength was not enough, the sword qi had dissipated in front of those sand monsters before he could touch them, and it was only because Huang Sha squinted that he couldn't see the current situation clearly, so he didn't stop slashing.
In this way, it was only about half an hour, when there were no more abnormal fluctuations, the two of them stopped, Mo Qingyu turned around, gently patted the shoulder of the boy behind him and said: "Little brother is really powerful, he has eliminated more than a dozen sand monsters in just a moment, big brother is really admired......!"
"Huh?" The boy stopped waving his scimitar when he heard this, and when he saw that the dust in front of him was empty, he scratched his head embarrassedly and looked up, and then exclaimed excitedly: "Huh?!Big brother! You are the big brother who was buried by the sand before!"
"Oh?" Seeing the boy's expression, he couldn't help but think of the two fools that Lingling said before, and immediately turned to the middle-aged man and thanked him: "If you want to come to the rescue a few days ago and leave food and water, it must be the eldest brother and the little brother!"
"Brother is polite! If it weren't for your righteous help today, I'm afraid that my uncle and nephew would really fall into the womb of this group of sand monsters......!"
"Big brother is serious!" said that, he only felt that his body was extremely tired, and he couldn't care about it so much, so he simply sat on the yellow sand and kept panting.
When the middle-aged man and the boy saw this, they immediately collapsed to the ground, took out some food and water out of thin air and handed it over.
Mo Qingyu didn't feel anything strange when he saw that he took out something out of thin air, after all, he had been here for more than half a year, so he naturally understood the mustard seed space that could be used for storage.
After thanking him, he took the food, and the three of them began to chat while eating and drinking.
"Little brother, I just listened to you cast a spell and chant, it seems that it is the six styles of the heavenly spear taught in the Spear Valley, right?"
"What the eldest brother said is right, the younger brother is from the Spear Valley, I think the eldest brother should be from the Phantom Sword Pavilion, right?"
"Yes, yes, little brother knows someone in my cabinet?"
"I know that the mysterious valley encountered the corpse king before, if it weren't for Senior Sister Gui Gelan to help, I really don't know if I would have the opportunity to negotiate with my eldest brother like this now. ”
"Oh, Ling'er girl?" The middle-aged man was full of doubts when he heard this, as if the two knew each other so much.
"Hmm?!Is the eldest brother talking about Sister Lan Yueling?!" The boy suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, and quickly raised his head, his eyes full of excitement and asked.
