Chapter 260 The End of the Desert
Countless pairs of sand hands stretched out from the desert and lifted Cheng Ziming and the four of them into the air. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The quicksand toad took a deep breath and sank into the quicksand pit after diving.
Cheng Ziming only felt that his feet moved, and the sand hand quickly walked forward in the sand, carrying the four of them towards the top of the sand dune. He only felt the wind whistling in his ears, and the sand dunes quickly moved backwards, and in a few moments they crossed the sand dunes and came to the other side of the dunes.
On the other side of the dune, ripples suddenly rippled on the flat sand, bubbling like a spring. Subsequently, the sand grains tumble, forming a new quicksand pit. The sand in the quicksand pit churned, rolling like boiling water. Suddenly, a puff of sand and dust flew up from the quicksand pit, and the big head of the quicksand toad emerged from the pit.
It grinned, "Well, fast enough." If you can stand it, I can go faster. ”
Cheng Ziming faced the wind, took out the map from his arms, pointed to the direction of the arrow and said: "The edge of the desert is so big, you can't just find a place and put us down." We have to look for the crab paste of the male stone crab, and we have to follow the direction of the arrow. ”
The quicksand toad smiled "hehe" and said: "Although the desert is big, it is my home, and it comes and goes freely, it is a toad." It's no problem to go wherever you want. You're here to show you the way, and make sure to get you to your destination before sunset. ”
As soon as it said this, the sun hanging in the sky poked its head out again and looked down. There was a look of disdain on the sun's face, and a pair of thief eyes turned left and right, and then laughed silently.
Cheng Ziming was looking at the map, only to feel that it was suddenly dark in front of him, and the sky suddenly darkened. When he looked up, he saw that the sky was pitch black, and the sun had disappeared in an instant.
The quicksand toad raised his head to the sky and scolded: "Dead sun, you come back for me." I know, I just said that I would send the guests to their destination before the sun sets, and you are sincere in demolishing the stage for me, aren't you?
The sun, now that the stars haven't gone to work, how dare you slip away? Do you know that this is skipping work?
Sun, get back quickly. Otherwise, I will go and make a wish before the gods take a test, and freeze you forever in a still time.
If you don't die, hurry—"
Before the toad's words were finished, a morning light suddenly lit up at the end of the western sky.
Cheng Ziming was happy in his heart, and thought: The sun comes out in the west? This is really a strange scene.
The western sky was getting brighter and brighter, and suddenly, a fireball suddenly appeared on the horizon, and it flew through the sky like a meteor, and in an instant it was in the middle of the sky.
Immediately, it was dawn again, and the sun hung steadily in the middle of the sky, as if it were pouring endless light and heat into the desert even harder.
Cheng Ziming shook the map, his eyes pulled back to the ground from the sky, and saw the quicksand toad crack its mouth with satisfaction, and said proudly: "The sun here has always been so cheap. I've always been bad at work, and I like to look for trouble. It's not the first day that a few Taoist friends have seen this guy, haven't you noticed, this dead sun never walks well, and the sunrise and sunset every day are particularly capricious. If you don't scold it, don't expect it to do its job. Unlike the toad, I've always been honest, just do what I say, and don't be lazy. ”
"Hmm. Cheng Ziming casually dealt with the quicksand toad, but thought to himself: It seems that the witch also likes to use the trick of freezing time to punish her subordinates, and the sun and the toad are very afraid of this torture.
But it is no wonder that Cheng Ziming himself has the same personal experience and has a deep understanding of the pain of this torture. Sealed in a still time, even the soul and mind are frozen, the feeling is too terrifying.
Cheng Ziming felt fortunate again, fortunately he withstood the temptation and did not choose to stay in this world, otherwise suffering this kind of punishment from time to time would be more terrible than losing his freedom.
In the next tea time, the sun was shining in the sky, and the toad ran quickly, and soon took Cheng Ziming and the four to the edge of the desert.
At the edge of the desert is a large mountain, not high, with black rocks stretching into the distance. The toad stopped at the foot of the mountain and said, "My range of activity is in the desert, and I will never be able to get out, so if you want to go to the other side of the mountain, you will have to walk on your own." ”
Qi Feiyun glanced at the map, and suddenly said, "Is there a city nearby?"
The quicksand toad said, "Yes, it's over there." ”
At the same time, thousands of hands on the sand pointed to the right side of the mountain.
Cheng Ziming glanced down at the map, only to see a city sign appear not far from the map, with a line of small words marked on the side: Crab City.
The city isn't on the path the arrow points to, but it's always reassuring to know that there's a city nearby. A city means food and fresh water. This city is a good place to resupply.
"The City of Crabs is the only city in the vicinity and one of the best cities in the desert. Because the city is close to the sea and is rich in crabs, hence the name. If you want to go there, follow the path of the mountains to the sea, and then walk along the coast for three hours. The quicksand toad grinned, paused and continued: "Are you looking for crab paste for stone crabs, do you want to go to Crab City? The seafood market there is the largest in the whole desert, and you can buy everything in it." ”
Cheng Ziming shook his head and said, "Let's not go to the City of Crabs, this city is not the location pointed by the arrow on the map." As for where we're going, I don't really know, I just need to follow the arrow. ”
The quicksand toad grinned and said, "How boring it is to travel full of unknowns. Anyway, when you get bored, you can go back to the desert and come to me. Just bury this in the sand and I'll show up. ”
After speaking, the quicksand toad spit out something with a snort, like a meteor coming straight towards Cheng Ziming.
Cheng Ziming raised his hand to catch it, picked it up and took a look, it turned out to be a golden toad. He smiled slightly and said, "This is your son?"
The quicksand toad glared: "Disciples, don't underestimate it." We are toads, and our big belly can hold everything in the world. It can also nourish the baby, which is much stronger than the general storage space. ”
Cheng Ziming waved the toad in his hand and said, "Then thank you!"
......
An hour later, they had climbed over the black mountains and came to a white beach.
The beach is not far from the black mountains, which are covered with white reefs with pitted surfaces and shells, which stand like bamboos in the sea.
At the place where the sea and the coast meet, a tall stone monument is erected. The stele is hung with dried seaweed, gently fluttering in the sea breeze.
Cheng Ziming glanced down at the map and said, "This is it." This beach is our destination. ”
