Chapter 176: The Land of Quicksand

This scene was funny in the eyes of everyone, they didn't expect that the real woman would believe that there would be a so-called sandstorm in this undisturbed desert, and there was not even the slightest sign of it.

They all think that this kind of guy from a small place has never seen the world, even if he really encounters a sandstorm, with the protection of the elders, do they still need to worry?

Besides, these elders of theirs are all characters close to the grandmaster, don't they have the sensitivity of a little desert master?

Joke!

So in the face of Xiaolong and the others' behavior here, they felt ridiculous, and they turned a deaf ear to Xiaolong's reminder here, and all this, those Dao Protectors didn't have the slightest statement, in fact, they really didn't feel it, and they didn't believe that a guy who was just at the beginning of the master level was more sensitive than their senses.

In fact, they just regarded the master as a guide, and they really didn't care so much except to lead the way.

There is no way, Xiaolong and the others can only act on their own, and Zhou Hong and the others have to obey Xiaolong's orders here, although they have the same idea in their hearts.

The old master also saw the actions of Xiaolong and the others early, and there were no superfluous words, but there was something more in his eyes.

Just when Xiaolong and the others had just dug the cave, and Zhou Hong came over to ask Xiaolong if he could do it, they found that there was a commotion in the other teams.

Just now, those high-flying big people suddenly felt the change in the breath between heaven and earth, and they rose to the sky to take a look, and really found the rolling sand and dust coming from the sky!

In the blink of an eye, even the people on the ground also discovered the anomaly in the sky.

Only then did everyone see that the horizon in the northwest direction was no longer the same color as before, but had been replaced by yellow sand, and the entire sky had turned yellow!

Even everyone felt the rapid change in the air flow around them, and everyone's faces changed!

There was no time to regret and blame anything, those big men hurriedly took action, and used their powerful strength to dig holes on the side of the dunes, and without urging, those geniuses of the family had already drilled into it.

In just a few minutes, the sky was already full of yellow sand, the wind was roaring, and although the sandstorm had not yet come, it was already a mess.

The wind was howling, diluting the old master's warning, and he just watched those geniuses walk into the grave!

The caves in the desert can't be impacted with energy, otherwise he would have done it a long time ago, where would he need to dig a little bit of a pit!

But the wind swept away his warning, and the genius boys rushed into the cave in fear.

The sand and dust came, covering the sky and the sun, as if the world was apocalyptic, and the whole world was suddenly dark, there was no trace of sunlight, and there was no inability to see the situation half a meter away, only the wind roared in the ears, as if the demon from hell was whispering.

The yellow sand covered the sky, with the wind whistling, countless sand and stones passed through the tent left by everyone as easily as a sharp sword, and in a blink of an eye, those things disappeared between heaven and earth, not even a little fragment was left!

Xiaolong was really shocked here, and the cave he dug according to the master's request was also buried in an instant, he could only hold his breath, close his pores, and curl up in this already sealed small space.

He didn't know what had happened to the others, nor how they had come to be, but he knew what he was suffering from here, until he felt that the cave was not shaking, the sand was not moving, and all the air was exhausted, he dug out with all his might.

But that's it, he almost suffocated in the sand, so he wasted all his strength, and finally rushed out of the sand, breathing the hot air between heaven and earth, Xiaolong felt for the first time that the hot air was so sweet!

When he came back to his senses, he found that in the vast desert, everything that was familiar was gone, and the dozen or so sand dunes that were originally surrounded by them had long been smoothed out and replaced by new sand dunes that were scattered together.

Originally, everyone was in the low-lying part of the sand dune, but Xiaolong found that he was standing on the highest sand dune, that is, the depression he was in was filled with sand and dust, and not only that, but it was also piled high!

Looking at the cave he climbed out of, watching the sand around him continue to slide into the depths, he didn't expect that he was buried seven or eight meters underground in the sand.

The power of nature is always terrifying!

He was also a little glad that he had a teacher, and he also learned from the master to dig such a shelter, otherwise, in such weather, outside the year, I don't know where it was blown to, and whether he survived or not is a question, even if he can leave the whole corpse is not certain!

He remembered the stunned geniuses of the big family he had seen before he went into the cave, saw their pale faces, and saw how desperately they wanted to squeeze into the cave......

You will not live!

Gradually, heads appeared under the sand, and some immortal people came out, but the little dragon could see the fear remaining in their eyes.

There are more and more people, all the people on Xiaolong's side have come out, a group of ten people, none of them have accidents, but the others are not so lucky, except for the Huangfu Lulu who studied with Xiaolong at the end, many teams have been attrition to varying degrees.

The least loss is still the Huangfu family, although some clansmen are disobedient, but most of them still listen to the words of the demon tiger, so these people only two unlucky people did not come out, the others are safe and sound, and they look at the demon tiger with more respect.

As for the genius boy under the other clan veteran, six of them did not appear.

Everyone's face is very ugly, even the Zhang family, the royal family and other forces have also lost more than half!

It was unacceptable that a small sandstorm would cost them five or six of their family's young geniuses.

They can only attribute their grievances to the old master, blaming him for not making it clear here, but everyone knows that what they have done has been benevolent and righteous, but no one cared about it at the time, and now that something is wrong, they have to bear everything themselves.

After the young man of the conniving family questioned the old master, these big men came forward to stop it, but everyone understood the meaning.

The old master never smiled again, except for the basic guidance, there was no longer the slightest superfluous words, and the originally magical and interesting myths and legends never appeared again, except for a few people here who faced Xiaolong, they were cold to everyone else.

Although the people of these families are very unhappy, but because of the sandstorm, everyone does not dare to underestimate the master, so in the face of the master's attitude, they can only endure it, as for the ending of the master after this incident, Xiaolong guessed that it may not be very good.

There was nothing he could do to change that, so he could only follow the team.

There was no rest, everyone tacitly accelerated their pace and returned to this place, as for those partners who did not come out, let them rest here!

The original team of 100 people was left with less than 50 people after this crisis, although the big people were all fine, but the geniuses of the family forces were reduced a lot, so these originally arrogant geniuses also closed their mouths, lowered their heads, and were busy hurrying.

They felt that they had come to the trial to obtain the treasure, not to die, but now that everything had changed, the team had been reduced by half before they had seen the treasure, which was really a bit unacceptable.

But the team still had to move forward, and it walked out of the area without stopping.

Because the original sign had disappeared, the master had to re-identify the direction, combined with the instructions of the Loulan token, and find a new route.

After two days of trekking, everyone's faces finally looked better, and they seemed to have forgotten the previous unhappiness, but also because they had not encountered any danger in the past two days, and no one complained about the hot weather.

On this day, everyone finally came to the land of quicksand, although everyone did not feel any different changes, but the master here stopped everyone from advancing.

Everyone watched with doubts and vigilance as the old master kept checking there, and even put the sand in his mouth to taste it, stood on the highest sand dune and looked out, digging five or six meters deep in the sand, but kept shaking his head and not speaking.

Finally, someone couldn't help it.

"Master, what are you doing again? Why don't you hurry forward, our supplies are running out, and if we can't find a supply point, we will all die in this hellish place, what are you wasting time doing here?"

In the face of this person's questioning, the old master didn't have any extra words, just said lightly.

"If you want to die, you go forward. ”

Then he continued to check, leaving behind a young man from the Zhang family with a pork liver color.

Everyone didn't say anything, with the lessons of the past, no one was willing to take risks, as time passed, even those masters above the masters couldn't stand it, and after some eye contact, a person walked out.

"Master, what do you think? What should we do next? Give me a clear word, those few people can't wait. ”

The old master sighed, came to several big people, bent down and bowed, and then said.

"We're in trouble. ”

"What's the trouble?"

"We're in the quicksand river!"

"What do you mean?"

"That is to say, the ground in this place in front of us is quicksand, although there is no difference on the surface, but as long as there are creatures entering it, they will be swallowed by quicksand, and there will be no bones, maybe thousands of years later, there will be ancients who will dig us out, but by then we have become dry corpses!"

"Can't you cross it?"

"You can only detour. ”

"But we don't have enough supplies. ”

"To go in is to die, even you may never get out again!"

Everyone's eyes flashed, especially the genius teenagers' hearts beat wildly.

The crowd fell silent and fell into thought, then began to discuss, and finally decided to try to cross!

The old master sighed, he had already made it clear about the danger, but everyone still insisted on going their own way, and he couldn't change anything.

In fact, everyone still thinks that it is safer to cross the quicksand land, at least they can reach the supply point in time, and they don't know when they will be able to reach it when they go around, and no one knows how wide this quicksand land is.

Eventually, everyone cautiously entered the land of quicksand, but danger was already coming......
