Chapter 118: An ominous premonition

It's just that everyone has never heard of it, there is a foreign race called Loulan on this Lancang Desert, from the dilapidated city walls, it seems that this place has been abandoned for many years, and the breath of vicissitudes and desolation is coming, Li Dao estimates that it has a history of at least hundreds of years, or even longer.

Strictly speaking, it can't be called a city, it looks vague from a distance, but it is magnificent. If you look closer, you can see that the yellow-colored walls are dilapidated, standing alone in the desert, with many cracks, and many sections of the city wall in the distance are gone, only a section of the foundation remains, and this place looks like a ruin.

Regardless, the wind and sand are getting stronger, and this is an ideal shelter.

Li Dao led everyone into the ancient city of Loulan, and saw many animals such as yellow sheep, antelopes, and wild wolves, hiding in some dilapidated and ruined houses.

Although the ancient city is extremely deserted, it can still be discerned from the outline that it was originally a great city. A straight main road is more than enough for ten horse-drawn carriages to run side by side, and the exotic adobe dwellings are neatly arranged on both sides of the avenue, of the same height and shape.

Despite the weather, there are still many houses that have not collapsed, and they still stand tenaciously there, as if to show the glory of the past, and I don't know how much effort it took to build such a magnificent city in the desert.

I just don't know for what reason, it was abandoned.

"My lord, this house is still in good condition, why don't you just rest here?"

A monk pointed to a large adobe house on the side of the road and suggested.

Li Dao nodded and motioned for everyone to enter.

"Squeak!"

The rotting wooden door was pushed open, and there was an overwhelming sound, as if it was about to fall down at any moment.

The house has a lot of space, tables and chairs, and many dried furs hanging on the walls, as well as a few longbows without strings, which can be vaguely recognized as the former owner of this room is relatively wealthy.

"There's a corpse there!"

One of the monks snorted softly, his voice a little surprised.

Everyone looked over, and saw a middle-aged corpse of a man and a woman, lying in a corner of the room, their faces still lifelike, and their expressions seemed to contain a look of horror, as if they had been greatly frightened before their deaths.

Li Dao's heart couldn't help but have an ominous premonition, it couldn't be that he had walked into an evil place again.

He poured the aura into his eyes, and the simple spiritual vision technique scanned every corner of the room, and he didn't find anything abnormal, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"Hey, the two dead corpses, it should be the owner of this place, it seems that they died violently, there is no fuss, Zhang Hai is not suspicious, it makes the adults unhappy!"

A monk said disdainfully, looking at Li Dao flatteringly, and patting his ass lightly.

"I said you don't have long eyes, the facial expressions of those two corpses are obviously frightened to death, I wonder what's strange here, I went to Xingyue Lake in previous years, and I haven't encountered this ancient city, it seems to have appeared suddenly, don't you think it's strange?"

The monk named Zhang Hai immediately retorted.

"Don't say it, I haven't heard of its existence before, I also went to Xingyue Lake fifteen years ago, and I didn't find such a city when I passed by here, such a behemoth, if it appears, I will definitely be impressed, I was still skeptical just now." ”

A monk seemed to remember the suspicion, and said with a somewhat solemn expression.

"I heard that the Lancang Desert was originally a grassland a long time ago, rich and rich, with abundant water, but I don't know why it became the desert it is today....... It is not surprising that this city appeared, presumably many years ago it was inhabited, and then abandoned for environmental reasons, and then the city was buried by wind and sand, but in recent years the wind and sand have been blown away, or sunk into the ground, the city is reappearing in the desert, which is not difficult to understand. ”

An older monk analyzed.

"There is some truth in what I said, I have heard of such a thing before, I heard that a city appeared in the western part of the Lancang Desert overnight, and the people in it still maintained the appearance before death, and then it was said that it was a city flooded by a storm, and all the residents of the city were buried together, and it was not discovered until a thousand years later, which shocked the entire continent at that time.....

"Could it be that Li Daoyou is talking about the ancient city of Pompeii discovered five years ago?"

A monk asked.

"Yes, it is this city, which is said to be the capital of the Dawan Kingdom two thousand years ago!"

The monks were talking.

Li Dao waved his hand to stop everyone's voices, and said coldly: "Okay, don't talk about it." We and other monks go against the sky, cultivate the immortal way, don't be suspicious, even if there is something unclean in this Loulan City, so many of us monks are afraid that it will not succeed!"

"Zhang Hai, you go and fetch a few yellow sheep to come over and serve as my dinner tonight. ”

Li Dao commanded.

"Yes!"

The monk named Zhang Hai immediately went out.

"You guys clean up the house, it's okay to meditate and cultivate, cultivation is like a boat sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will go backwards. There is a lack of spiritual energy here, so I have a few bottles of pills here, and let's take them. ”

Li Dao took out two bottles of Huanglong Pill that had not been used up, handed them to the Green King, and motioned for him to distribute them.

This Huanglong Pill is already a chicken rib existence for him, it is useless, it is most suitable for these monks to increase their cultivation, after all, they are also their own subordinates, and the stronger the strength, the greater the benefit to themselves.

He is not a narrow-minded man.

"Thank you, my lord, my subordinates will definitely go to the soup and fire, and I will not hesitate!"

"Thank you for your generous reward, this is an elixir, I have only seen it twice since I cultivated, and it is a great favor for such a precious thing that my lord is willing to give me such cultivation......

"Thank you, Lord reward, we will be loyal and never betray..."

Li Dao's generous gesture made the faces of the monks change greatly, which was a complete unexpected surprise.

In this Linhai continent where spiritual energy is scarce, the monks themselves are like a rarity, and the genius earth treasure is even rarer, and the elixir has always been something that can be met and unattainable, and it can be exchanged for almost everything, it is a hard currency among monks, most of them are in the hands of those big forces such as the imperial court, and they rarely flow out.

After all, there are very few monks who can refine pills, and this thing is quite beneficial to the cultivation of monks, and the degree of preciousness is needless to say, it can be said that to some extent, it is much more precious than magic weapons.

Where can these casual cultivators have such a luxury item as elixir, so Li Dao's actions have a great impact on them, and at this moment, there are many monks who have a lot less resentment towards Li Dao in their hearts, and they all have a subtle thought, maybe it is not a disadvantage to follow such an adult......

Many monks excitedly cleaned the house, and moved the two dried corpses out of the house, and burned them clean, and then looked at the Yellow Dragon Pill in the Green King's hand impatiently, with great eagerness in their eyes.

The two bottles of elixir totaled sixteen pills, and even the monk who went out hunting could only allocate one pill per person, but everyone was so satisfied that they all carefully put it away and refused to take it.

They all sat on the ground, boringly exhaling the thin aura that was almost non-existent in the air.

Li Dao didn't persuade him when he saw this, these people are used to being poor, and such behavior is understandable. I think he was so embarrassed when he was in Beihai and didn't get the cave of the Jindan monk.

Along the way to cultivation, wealth and land are all indispensable.

If you take the heaviest one, Kendi is ranked first in terms of "wealth", and cultivation is actually not consistent with the life of mortals, there are no spirit stones, spirit pills, magic weapons, and spiritual materials.... and other things, it is almost impossible to cultivate an inch, they are the monk's firewood, rice, oil and salt.

The reaction of these monks was also expected by Li Dao, but seeing their expressions still made him a little embarrassed, as if he remembered the scene when he embarked on the cultivation integration a hundred years ago, so similar.....

Li Dao has already learned about their origins along the way, they are all scattered cultivators of Xueyue and Piaoxue, inherited from their families or accidentally obtained the cultivation method and embarked on the cultivation of immortals.

There are no members of any big forces, and Li Dao knows this well.

After all, the Linhai Continent used to be a prosperous cultivation holy land, and there was a super faction like the Heavenly Sword Sect, even if it declined, it was not surprising that there were still many immortal cultivators who had passed down the Dao system.

The existence of casual cultivation is not surprising at all, some of them have low talents, and it is too late to embark on the path of cultivation, and they are not absorbed by the big forces, so they can only cultivate alone.

Some may have good qualifications, but they like to live like idle clouds and wild cranes, unfettered, and wander the world, and there are many such monks.

Not to mention the Linhai Continent, even if it is the resource-rich Beihai Scattered Cultivation, Li Dao is not surprised, if it is calculated, the Scattered Cultivation should be at the lowest level of the immortal cultivation world.

These people are usually scattered all over the place, it is extremely difficult to see each other, they are all trying to find immortal cultivation in the future, if it were not for a grand event like Xingyue Lake, it would be almost impossible to see.

At this time, there was a whirring wind outside the house, the sound was sharp and whistling, you could feel that the sand storm was gradually forming, it seemed that it was right to take refuge here, the sand storm in the desert was extremely difficult to resist even for monks, unless you have the cultivation of building a foundation, you can easily manipulate the aura of heaven and earth, affect the violent wind aura, and avoid being harmed.

Li Dao's group of people are all Qi Condensing Cultivators, and they can't resist the sand storm, they are only a little more magical than mortals, and the hardness of their bodies is not much stronger than that of martial artists, and they are still extremely weak.

In the face of such a violent wind and sandstorm, it is probably more than lucky to be swept away.

Time passes gradually.....

After a pillar of incense, the monk named Zhang Hai had not returned, Li Dao suddenly became alert, a monk in the early stage of condensation went to hunt a yellow sheep, and he would not come back for such a long time, which was a bit strange.

When I entered the city just now, there were many yellow sheep hiding from the sandstorm in the city, and there was a lot of them, and there was no shortage of them.

Li Dao opened his mouth and said: "Lin Lei, Zhang Feng, Xu Yan, the three of you went to look for Zhang Hai, this is a pillar of incense and has not come back, what is going on!"

"Yes!"

The three monks immediately got up and walked towards the outside of the house, at this time the wind and sand were already very strong, even in this city, they could feel the great power of nature, countless sand particles swept through the sky, pouring in from the damaged place of the house, and Li Dao's face hurt.

It's just that his heart is getting heavier and heavier, as if something is going to happen....

Li Dao had already given birth to his divine sense, and he vaguely had some precognitive feelings about the unknown bad things, he sighed, and sacrificed the Qingyun Sword, and the green light shrouded the whole room, clear and bright, very dazzling.

I hope there won't be any other twists and turns!

He prayed in his heart.

"Ahh

"Help, sir!"

"Help.....

Three faint screams came from outside the house, seemingly from a very distant place, indistinct in the wind and sand.

"Not good!"

Li Dao stood up in an instant and shouted, his divine sense was very sensitive, and he clearly sensed that the soul blood of the three people was rapidly becoming weak, and he heard a few miserable shouts.

The other monks also stood up with a change of expression, and they were obviously awakened by this, and they all looked out of the room in surprise.

"Come with me!"

Li Dao raised the Qingyun Sword, and the sword light shrouded a few feet in a radius, wrapping more than ten people in it, and quickly walked towards the outside of the house.
