Chapter 93, a kiss from quicksand
Chapter 93, a kiss from quicksand
The remnant sun is fading, and the glow is breathing.
The Desert of Death suddenly became very quiet, and occasionally a few sounds of rustling between the sand could be heard. Shi Yunyang sensed this coming night, and a strong uneasiness rose in his heart.
There are two darkest times of the day, one is the dawn when the day is about to break, and the other is the beginning of the night. These are the two most dangerous times in the desert. The night has always been the sharpest dagger and the strongest shield for assassins and killers. At night, they have their own definite prey, but they are hidden in the darkness that no one can detect. Like the snakes and scorpions in the desert, the darkness is their greatest battleground.
What also made Shi Yunyang's heart uneasy was the wind that had just blown.
It was not a simple wind, it was blowing rhythmically, not like the natural wind in nature, but like a strong wind brought up by something.
Shi Yunyang thought about it and looked at the sky, there was not half a cloud in the sky. Looks like I'll be able to see the Big Dipper tonight. Shi Yunyang felt the approximate location of the Tianshu Star, and along the way, the two carefully observed the surrounding environment, walking unhurriedly in this desert. This time, there had never been a threat as large as an ant colony or a snake colony, and the two of them didn't have to rush desperately.
After walking for a while, the two found that the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and then the yellow sand was already flying all over the sky. From time to time, it will be fascinating to the eye.
Ran Tianluo said: "How can there be such a strong wind in the desert?"
Shi Yunyang shook his head, so he had to cover his face with his cuffs and continue to walk forward, suddenly remembering something, and turned his head to stare at Ran Tianluo.
"Tilt, we may have run into a black sandstorm. ”
Ran Tianluo has naturally heard of the power of black sandstorms, in the desert, in a high temperature state for a long time, the air state is extremely unstable, it is easy to have black sandstorms. The black sandstorm is known as the Desert Grim Reaper, as long as it is involved, it will be difficult to live, and Da Luo Jinxian will not be able to return to the sky.
"Black Sandstorm, how could it be!" Ran Tianluo exclaimed.
Shi Yunyang's face was solemn, his guess would probably not be wrong, such a strong and rhythmic strong wind must be a precursor to the coming of the black sandstorm.
"So what now?"
Shi Yunyang said: "There are a large number of man-eating ants in the direction behind me, and the way back is no longer possible, and now we can only wait and see." ”
Ran Tianluo hummed softly, and Shi Yunyang said again: "No matter what happens next, I will protect you with my life." ”
Ran Tianluo was silent, in fact, he was very moved in his heart. Walking beside Shi Yunyang, she has always felt very at ease, at least she will have someone to rely on. Since her mother left, Shi Yunyang has become the person she loves the most. She didn't know what would happen to her and what would happen to her if one day they had to be separated.
Walking in the wind is already extremely difficult, the wind has become stronger and stronger, the two leaned forward, but they could still feel a huge force pushing them backwards. It is already extremely difficult to walk against the wind. What's even more difficult is that the last remnant of the sun has also set down the mountain, and it has entered the darkest eve at this time. There is no starlight in the sky, and there are no fingers in the hand. Shi Yunyang could only hold Ran Tianluo tightly. Try not to be blown away by this wind. Once dispersed, the consequences can be unpredictable.
The wind was still gathering the sand, and the temperature that had accumulated during the day in the desert of death began to cool rapidly under the heat of the storm. Shi Yunyang and the others could feel a slight coolness. I felt very comfortable in an instant, and that kind of comfort completely replaced the hot pain of the wind and sand on my face for a while.
The two of them walked in the wind with difficulty, and suddenly Ran Tianluo seemed to have stepped on something soft, and his feet were soft, and he flashed to the side in surprise. Only a crisp sound could be heard. Shi Yunyang remembered that it was the sound of a rattlesnake. The memory is very deep. A stream of spiritual power immediately struck out from his hand, and with the help of the silver light of spiritual power, Shi Yunyang saw clearly that it was a rattlesnake that was not long. Rattlesnakes are extremely venomous, and if they are bitten, they must be very troublesome.
"Tilt, are you alright?"
Ran Tianluo said: "It's okay, let's go!"
As soon as the two opened their mouths, the flying sand was stuffed in their mouths, and the two coughed a few times and spit out the sand. Shi Yunyang covered his mouth and said, "Why don't we take a break." ”
In this darkness, Ran Tianluo couldn't see Shi Yunyang's face clearly, he could only feel that he was standing in front of him, Ran Tianluo said: "This place is too dangerous, the snake you killed just now Yunyang has bled out, and there will be man-eating ants soon." Let's move on. ”
Ran Tianluo said, and walked forward. As soon as he stepped forward, he felt a sharp pain in his feet, and the whole person couldn't support it, and he fell to the ground softly.
Shi Yunyang felt that Ran Tianluo had fallen, and hurriedly asked, "Tianluo, what's wrong with you?"
Ran Qianluo said: "When you dodge at the right time, you will break your foot." This is a terrible thing. ”
Shi Yunyang said: "It's too dangerous here, let's leave first, come, I'll carry you on my back." ”
Ran Tianluo knew that he was no longer able to walk, and he could only let Shi Yunyang carry it at the moment. It's just that the power of this wind and sand is huge, and it is already very difficult for Shi Yunyang to walk alone, and coupled with her weight, no matter who it is, it will be difficult to move an inch. Ran Tingluo felt Shi Yunyang walking with one shallow foot, each foot stepping deep into the sand with all his might. She could feel Shi Yunyang panting, and the top of his back had become very hot and humid in a short time.
Walking like this is very physical, Shi Yunyang walked with Ran Tianluo on his back for a long time, and before he knew it, a bright light appeared on the Death Desert. Shi Yunyang looked up, and it turned out that a bright moon had already shone into the sky. It seems to be the guiding light above the nine heavens, illuminating this desert very clearly.
Shi Yunyang was shining through the moonlight, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be a powerful suction behind him pulling him back. Turning his head, in the distance under the moonlight, a storm set off by wind and sand was rapidly approaching. It was dim and reckless, like a giant monster. The wind was loud and rumbling. The vast expanse of jet-black things in the sky, like dark clouds rolling up in the sky, was majestic, as if it was about to swallow up the whole world.
"Black Sandstorm is coming!"
There was only one thought in Shi Yunyang's heart, and he jumped out in horror. There was already a burst of cold sweat on his forehead in an instant. Shi Yunyang turned around and walked forward at an accelerated pace, he only hoped that he could get out of the range of this black sandstorm as soon as possible.
But this is not easy, the general black sandstorm can reach a radius of fifty miles. How could such a wide distance radius go out in a moment and a half. Not to mention that in the middle of the vast desert, it is even more difficult to make out the direction.
Shi Yunyang searched for the direction of Tianshu Xing, and ran forward as fast as he could. Before long, the storm wall was getting closer and closer. Shi Yunyang took a few steps, and his body would involuntarily retreat backwards. For a while, the distance between the storm and the two of them was probably less than a mile.
Shi Yunyang was running, he had already forgotten his life and death, his feet had been pierced by the bone spurs of different animals, and the blood was flowing, so sooner or later he would attract the ring heirs of the ant colony. But right now, between life and death, every action seems to be instinctive. That belief in escape is already greater than a qiē.
Stars began to appear in the sky, but in the yellow sand of the sky, it was very unreal. But there were still seven particularly bright stars, which together looked like a spoon hanging from the sky.
"Big Dipper, great!" Shi Yunyang muttered alone. Although the voice was small, it had already drifted into Ran Tianluo's ears. The two of them were immediately filled with hope. Maybe this trip is really expected to find sand blood.
The discovery of the Big Dipper was good news for both of them. At the moment, he forgot about the danger behind him for a while. The two ran quickly in the direction of Beidou.
Suddenly, Shi Yunyang's intuitive feet softened, as if he stepped into the air and fell into an empty world. The sand rattled under your feet. Shi Yunyang was shocked, and a strong force was used on his arm, throwing Ran Tianluo's whole person dozens of feet away. Ran Tianluo's body hit the ground heavily, and although it didn't cause much damage on the sand, it was very painful. Ran Tianluo didn't know what was going on, got up, turned around and ran towards Shi Yunyang, but was stopped by Shi Yunyang loudly.
"Don't come here, this is quicksand! If you come in, there is no possibility of going out, and you will definitely die!"
Ran Tianluo was taken aback when he heard this, and said loudly: "Then what should you do." His voice was full of shock and fear.
Shi Yunyang looked at the approaching sandstorm and said sharply: "You don't care about me, there is no possibility of survival if you fall into the quicksand." I can't get out now. Get out of this desert and think of another way!"
Ran Tianluo was already crying in fright, she didn't expect that the time when the two had to separate would come so quickly, so fast that she was completely unprepared. She was at a loss, where would she go without Shi Yunyang, in the past two years, she had never left Shi Yunyang in her memory. The only year in Tianchi when Shi Yunyang was absent was skipped because she had been asleep, and there was almost no impression on her. But at this time, the separation turned out to be life and death. How could she bear it. No, she couldn't afford it.
Ran Tianluo cried and shouted: "I'm not leaving, I've already left you once, how can I leave you behind." Yun Yang, you hold on, I will find a way to save you. ”
Ran Tianluo tried to walk in Shi Yunyang's direction, but after taking a few steps, he clearly felt that the sand under his feet collapsed downward, and Ran Tianluo retreated in horror and collapsed to the ground. Seeing that Shi Yunyang's body had sunk a lot under a burst of collapse.
Shi Yunyang was not wrong, it is impossible to rescue a person trapped in the quicksand, and the force used to pull a person out of the quicksand is almost equivalent to pulling five cows at the same time, so it is almost impossible. Shi Yunyang could only stay calm and his body did not move. Slows down the rate at which the body sinks. At that moment, when he saw Ran Tianluo walking towards him, he panicked in his heart, shouting "Go back, go quickly!", but his body sank a lot in this panic. Only the part above the chest is exposed above the surface.
"Don't!!" Seeing Shi Yunyang's body sinking, Ran Tianluo let out a heart-rending shout. Tears were already pouring down, glittering silver in the moonlight.
Shi Yunyang's face was heavy, but he still comforted Ran Tianluo and said, "Tianluo, you leave quickly, there is almost no time." A sandstorm is coming. Shi Yunyang flipped his hand, and he already held Yuan Li in his hand. Then he threw it hard and threw it to Ran Tianluo. "You take Yuan away, Shi Yunyang has Qing with you all the way in this life, although it only takes two years, but he is already satisfied. After that, Shi Yunyang also burst into tears.
Ran Tianluo took Yuanli, only to feel a bloody pain in his heart. In the past two years, no one has been able to live without anyone, and living alone is no different from death. Ran Tianluo hugged Yuanli tightly with both hands. looked at the sparkle in the corner of Shi Yunyang's eyes. His heart was already broken and dripping blood.
The sandstorm was getting closer and closer, but Ran Tianluo still stayed where she was, no matter what Shi Yunyang said, she wouldn't leave. Shi Yunyang was so anxious that tears welled up in his eyes. His heart was like a fire, but suddenly he saw Ran Tianluo get up and jump suddenly. They rushed into the quicksand. Shi Yunyang was shocked, and a stream of spiritual power in his hand spurted out, wanting to force Ran Tianluo back, but Ran Tianluo flashed in the air. The figure had already fallen to Shi Yunyang's side. Then the body sagged rapidly.
"Dumping, you" Shi Yunyang's face was full of tears, and there was an indescribable joy and despair in his heart. There was a slight hint of anger in his words.
Ran Tianluo gently buried his head in Shi Yunyang's chest and said, "Tilting Luo, don't be separated from you again, even if you die, Tilting Luo is also fearless." Yunyang, Tilt Luo also likes you. ”
Shi Yunyang's heart was suddenly stunned, Ran Tianluo's words were like thunder, this was the first time Ran Tianluo said to him that he liked these two words. Shi Yunyang felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, and he finally waited for Ran Tianluo to express his attitude. But when I think about it, my heart is full of infinite misery. Such an earth-shattering joy has now become a farewell poem before death.
Shi Yunyang's eyes were also full of tears, and Shi Yunyang gently hugged Ran Tianluo. The corners of his mouth were pressed against Ran Tianluo's lips again.
On the verge of life and death, they are kissing passionately in this sad night. Perhaps thousands of years later, people will find two skeletons embracing each other, but this kiss full of truth and tragedy is only engraved in the gap of time today.
