The sky gradually fell into a dim curtain, and the red sun lying on the desert greedily sucked all the moisture from the desert and fell asleep silently.

Zhu Xuanlong and Shangguan Ying used light skills to run to the Sahara Desert in one go. The two of them stepped into the vast desert, and both of them already felt exhausted and began to gasp for breath.

The first cordon to the desert world seems to be the regretful bones left behind by wild animals after they lost their way.

Now, they were greeted by untall, yet innumerable sand dunes, along with the white limestone formations in the distance, which stretched to the horizon with indifference and desolation.

There is a saying that once a person sets foot in such an endless sea of sand, his body will quickly weaken, and the weakness of the body will naturally cause bacteria to erode, but he does not know that ghosts and other strange spirits will also come one after another, and they will either possess or want to borrow corpses to resurrect their souls. Zhu Xuanlong and Shangguan Ying were both disciples of the Taoist Nine Xuanyu Qing Heavenly Master, so it was natural to see that the supernatural things were gradually surrounding them with their teeth and claws.

The two knew that the most difficult alien in the desert was the sand sand ghost, which was recorded in ancient books as a spirit beast shaped like a werewolf and had a sound like a pig's cry, and its ferociousness and cruelty ate people, and it was a transparent spirit beast. For such supernatural creatures, the only way to stop them from approaching is to draw a spell first. The tombs and tombstones of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs had unique spells for this supernatural beast.

Zhu Xianlong was helpless, he took out the yellow paper, then bit his middle finger, and recited a mantra while drawing a talisman...... , Gang ——!"

Zhu Xuanlong drew another talisman for Shangguan Ying. After the two runes were drawn, they suddenly heard the roar of heaven and earth! Immediately, the auspicious aura rose, and the light of auspicious signs flashed around the body. Only then did the two of them realize that the ninety-nine sand sand ghosts were hanging in the air, and they screamed and slowly retreated.

Now, very helplessly, the two have long crossed the so-called Death Bone Zone. Now is the second line of death - walking in the simple and terrifying limestone and yellow sand, although the two hold hands, although they support each other to move forward, but they do not feel as romantic as people often say in the book. Such an area, like the black desert world of the underworld, made the two of them really afraid.

Now, it seems that it can be said that Zhu Xuanlong and Shangguan Ying have reached the end of the road and are already in a dilemma. In fact, the two never thought of retreating, but they were unprepared to plunge into this "Sand Sea Hell" that is difficult to conquer with their legs and hunger. ”

Three days later, the two of them finally ran out of strength, and their bodies fell to the ground and rolled to the low recess of the desert. By the time they climbed a little higher, the two were exhausted. Now, the two of them had to lie down, not wanting to move at all, and dry mouths were a matter of course. - The two of them knew that they were running out of water and food.

At this time, Zhu Xianlong was going to feed Shangguan Ying the last bit of water to drink, but who knows, the two of them pushed each other for this, but no one drank it, but the small half pot of water was all fed to the desert. The two were helpless, so they had to look at each other and smile bitterly.

Now, they can only lie together weakly, looking at the stars in the sky, and the two of them also understand in their hearts that if they continue in this situation, they will wait for death. The only thought was to wait and pray for a caravan of desert camels.

Time passed minute by minute, and in the middle of such a moonlit night, the two of them already felt the fear of the imminent death of their lives, and this ominous omen made them both nervous, but on the surface, neither wanted to give the other a pressure expression of uneasiness or displeasure.

The sky is getting brighter, and the endless desert is directly connected to the sky.

The dust fell on them in circles in the morning breeze, and was swept up by the southwest wind and scattered into the distance in a whistling way. Strangely, the sky suddenly darkened, covering the sky like a dark cloud, but a closer look revealed that it was a sandstorm.

Zhu Xianlong hurriedly took off his tattered coat to cover Shangguan Ying, and the two snuggled up and waited for the sandstorm to pass. After a long time, the sandstorm finally passed, and the two of them crawled out of the dust. Zhu Xianlong helped Shangguan Ying dust off his face and body.

Shangguan Ying looked at Zhu Xuanlong, and Zhu Xuanlong also looked at Shangguan Ying in a daze, but Zhu Xuanlong quickly lowered his head. Shangguan Ying understood that his expression was blaming himself. Shangguan Ying stepped forward and hugged Zhu Xianlong. After hugging, they looked at each other and smiled bitterly for the second time, but this time the bitter smile was meaningful.

When the first sun peeks out of the dust after the sandstorm, the desert is reddish, as if stained with blood. Soon, the desert became golden again, restoring its original color.

Zhu Xianlong and Shangguan Ying were hungry and thirsty, and they saw everything starry, and at the same time felt dizzy. The two of them knew in their hearts that they couldn't wait for death here, they had to go find water.

Zhu Xuanlong struggled to take out the map and compass from the cloth bag to check the location, but the map was blown away by a gust of wind as soon as it was unfolded. Zhu Xianlong crawled to retrieve it, but the desert wind seemed to be joking with him, and the map was blown up again and then blown into the sky and disappeared. Zhu Xianlong reluctantly climbed back again, and he dragged Shangguan Ying's hand and walked forward step by step.

There seems to be grass and trees in front of me, and there is also the sound of water, I wonder if it is an illusion? Zhu Xianlong hurriedly called Shangguan Ying to listen. Shangguan Ying seemed to hear the sound of water, and hurriedly wanted to run over, but her legs and feet could not move forward, and finally she fell to the sand from exhaustion.

This time, the two were in a coma for longer than before.

I don't know when, a camel bell woke up Zhu Xianlong. Zhu Xianlong opened his eyes slightly, but he was very puzzled in his heart, only to see Shangguan Ying drinking water, and there were many Arabs standing around, and those people were talking to her.

Zhu Xianlong opened his mouth and wanted to call Shangguan Ying, give me water to drink, but he couldn't say a word, so he stretched out his hands and waved at Shangguan Ying. But Shangguan Ying didn't react, she put on the clothes of the Arabs, got on their camels, walked into the distance, and disappeared into the desert.

Zhu Xianlong was a little indignant and felt inexplicable, all this came too suddenly, and he couldn't figure it out, so he used all his strength to crawl in the direction where Shangguan Ying was walking. But crawling and crawling seemed to touch a wrapper in the sand, and when he was about to take it out, he found a small note for himself.

The small note read: "Brother Xuanlong, wrap me and hide it under the sand, along with two jugs of water and a bag of food." I'm going to marry Asukhed, the son of a wealthy merchant in Asomore. Alas, a man is dying, and I feel that I am a blessing in disguise to marry him. Maybe they will get married in a few days, and it's hard to put into words. Take care —— Shangguan Ying. ”

Zhu Xuanlong thought to himself, how could there be such a clueless thing? This is not a fantasy, is it? Shangguan Ying is afraid that something is going to happen? How can a person who is about to die suddenly be favored by a rich businessman? This is obviously selling himself.

This girl will deceive. It's over! A girl who is so good betrayed herself like this. Perhaps, Shangguan Ying made this decision for the survival of me and her, it was really difficult for her. blame yourself for being useless, but the girl who is good is bad in her own hands.

Zhu Xuanlong coughed for a while, his mind seemed to be much clearer, and he looked at the note again, thinking that the note was not clearly written. What if that's not the case? It's your responsibility to protect her. Why didn't the Arabs come to save me? Only her, there must be something wrong with that.

The lost Zhu Xuanlong decided to go to Shangguan Ying, but as soon as he stood up, he was physically exhausted and fell.

Zhu Xianlong sat cross-legged, gulped water, and ate some camel jerky, dates, corn tortillas, wheat cakes, beans and fried pigeons, and baked fish. It's so fragrant!, but don't dare to finish it, leave a little just in case.

Zhu Xianlong thought to himself, this Arab is not bad, and he can be regarded as saving his life. I have to lie down for a while, and then go to find Sister Shangguan Ying after recuperating and recuperating. There is not much time, and Zhu Xuanlong is full of energy now.

What a coincidence, good things came in pairs, and a camel caravan came. Zhu Xianlong was busy inquiring about how to go to Egypt? Someone told him that it would take several days to go northeast, which was not too far.

A merchant came up and said, "Friend from afar! Why don't you think about how you can easily go to Egypt? Buy a camel? You know, it's a ship of the desert. ”

Zhu Xianlong suddenly realized: "Yes, yes! Okay! Take the lead? I bought it." Also, can you sell me some water and food?"

The merchant smiled and said, "Okay, this is what we're doing." ”

Zhu Xianlong took out the money to buy a camel, water and food, and said with satisfaction: "I don't need to make change, I can be regarded as making a distant friend." ”

The merchant took the money, nodded and said, "Friend, let's go to Libya, you can go with us for a while." Okay, you'll be on the road with us in a moment? After three or four days, we went our separate ways. ”

Zhu Xianlong said gratefully: "Well, okay, Xie Lu Xie! With a friend like you, I feel really down-to-earth." ”

The caravan set out for a long distance to the north, and it slowed down until it saw the sun setting in the west.

The sky gradually darkened, and the moon faintly appeared in the faint clouds. In a short time, the sky was completely dark. They led the camels in a circle and made several stakes of wood in the sand, on which they drank water and ate mutton and dates. Someone took out the oud and played it, and the sound was pleasant.

Others also took out African top-shaped drum drums and bandil tambourine and beat them together, making people feel completely untouched by the desert. Zhu Xianlong thought to himself that if he listened to this music in other places, he might feel like he was in the desert again.

The beauty of the sound of this oud is said among folk artists to have been created by the Meccan Peldeg. Peljeg once played it in the presence of Muhammad, the founder of Islam, when it had only ten strings.

Because of the outstanding performance skills, even the birds in the sky were attracted to the church to listen. The oud is quite popular in West Asia and North Africa, and it is one of the main stringed instruments in the Arab region. Later, it also spread to Xinjiang, China, and later, the Uyghurs in Xinjiang improved it.

Zhu Xuanlong was wrapped in a pilllow and could listen attentively. Because of the rush for several days, I fell asleep unconsciously when I listened to it.

The next morning, the camel caravan set out. The desert is so big that I don't know how many days I have walked, but the desert is still out of sight, as if the whole earth is a desert, which makes people desperate. Zhu Xianlong thought to himself, going to Egypt is said to be three or four days, but it is really difficult to say now. If it weren't for this camel caravan, he would have gone to see Lord Yama a long time ago.

On this day, the weather was particularly clear, and the buildings could be faintly seen in the distance. The camel merchant also happened to come over to bid Zhu Xianlong a farewell, and gave him a set of clothes and headdresses worn by the Arabs, which were beige robes. Zhu Xianlong likes it very much and is very grateful.

The camel merchant pointed to the front and said, "Friend from afar! Look, that's Egypt. Our camel caravan is heading northwest to Libya. Good luck and there will be a date later!"

Zhu Xianlong took a string of gold bracelets from his hand and said, "Friend, can you keep a commemorative acquaintance?"

The camel merchant was moved, hurriedly took off the small scimitar he wore at his waist, and said movingly: "In this case, we don't have to be polite, this ancestral knife has my address and name on it, and you can come to see me when you have the opportunity to pass by?"

Zhu Xianlong couldn't shirk it and had to accept it, indeed, this waist with a small scimitar is an antique for many years. The handle of the scimitar is inlaid with precious stones and gold and silver flower totems, and the text is curved back with the branches, the scimitar is not large and heavy, it is indeed a good knife.

Zhu Xianlong took out some money again, asked this merchant friend to replace him, and invited all the friends of the caravan to have a big meal when he arrived in Libya.

After the two said goodbye, Zhu Xuanlong watched the camel caravan disappear into the desert in the northwest.
