Chapter 681 Sandstorm

We are now very close to our destination. The five hundred miles radius of the temple is a restricted area. You cannot enter the restricted area, otherwise you will die miserably. Now we are less than eight hundred miles away from the temple, and far from the earth where Gu Jianchi requested to arrive in advance. The city should be less than three hundred miles away. A quick march or an hour's flight would almost reach it.

Unfortunately, there is no obvious reference point in the desert at all. It is not easy to find the earth city within a radius of hundreds of miles. We must first find the ancient channel of the Kongque River.

It was getting dark, and the weather tonight was not very good. Neither the moon nor the stars could be seen in the sky. It was gray all around, and nothing could be seen clearly. So Zhao Wuji ordered the camp to be set up. Ye Xiaochuan and others were responsible for the perimeter security, and they were directly under the mountain. Go find the water veins of Kongque River.

This place should have reached the bottom of the Jinsha Valley. Only the water veins of Kongque River can be used as a reference to figure out where our group of people are now.

During the day, this place is so hot that you can eat it with just a sprinkle of cumin and chili pepper, but at night it is so cold. No wonder people say that the bottom of the Jinsha Valley is a place abandoned by the gods. This is not true at all.

Ye Xiaochuan couldn't understand. Thousands of miles to the west from the bottom of the Jinsha Valley is the West Sea, and to the south is the dead lake with lush aquatic plants. What a good geographical environment, how could it create such a dead place where even a drop of water can't be found? ?

Only cultivators can traverse the Jinsha Valley with a radius of thousands of miles. Ordinary people walking in it with camels will be trapped alive in this place even if they bring enough dry food and fresh water.

This damn wild land of the Western Region, this damn Jinsha Valley, this damn life.

"Damn Shanxia Zhizhu, why haven't you come back yet? You're just looking for a water vein. How come you put so much effort into it?"

Ye Xiaochuan began to criticize Yamashita Zhizhi again in his heart.

It was already cold in this place at night, and the wind gradually picked up. The wind came a little late. It would be great if there was such a refreshing wind in broad daylight. Now that the temperature is so cold, the wind is like a sharp knife digging into people's clothes. .

Ye Xiaochuan didn't care. He practiced the Sword Intention of the Wind and understood the secret of wind. However, Yang Shijiu, Ouyang Caiyu and others were different. They had already begun to take out the bloated feather cloaks from the Qiankun bag.

As soon as night comes, everyone will take out their clothes to keep out the cold. This is a living experience.

Ye Xiaochuan thought it was nothing at first, but gradually, the wind around him gradually became stronger. Ye Xiaochuan was very sensitive to the wind. He slowly stood up, closed his eyes, opened his arms, and felt the wind everywhere around him. .

When he felt that the wind was getting more and more uncomfortable, he was slapped on the back of the head. Without looking back, he knew that no one in the entire forward battalion dared to slap him on the back of the head without restraint except Bai Liyuan, the deputy captain.

Sure enough, Baili Yuan's voice rang out and said: "You brat, I asked you to pay attention to the movements around you on the sand dunes. What are you doing with your arms open? Do you want to embrace the sky?"

Ye Xiaochuan ignored her and said, "Baili, there's something wrong with the wind tonight."

Baili Yuan said: "I bet you didn't believe what I said this morning. I said, whether it is the East China Sea or the desert of the Western Regions, if the morning glow is as red as human blood, there will definitely be a big storm. As the saying goes, if the morning glow does not go out, the sunset will go out. Thousands of miles, that’s what it means.”

Ye Xiaochuan curled his lips and said: "You said in the morning that there would be a big storm, but now it is evening, and your weather forecast is not accurate. The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and I can feel that there is a powerful force to the southeast of us. The storm is moving towards us quickly. This sand dune cannot stop such a powerful storm, so we should find a place to take shelter from the wind. "

Baili Yuan also meant the same thing. After the strong wind just started, Baili Yuan knew that the storm was coming. Shanxia Zhizhu, who happened to go out to explore the water veins of the Kongque River, also came back. The water veins were not found. They were about twenty miles to the north. An abandoned stone house was discovered, and Bailiyuan came to the periphery to ask Ye Xiaochuan to move his position.

When I met everyone, I found that Yamashita Zhizhu's nose and forehead were all red, as if someone had photographed him with a brick.

Ye Xiaochuan was surprised and said: "Brother Yamashita, what's wrong with your head?"

Yamashita Zhishu said awkwardly: "No, it's nothing."

When Ye Xiaochuan and others arrived at the stone house twenty miles away to the north, Ye Xiaochuan first discovered blood on one side of the stone wall, which seemed to have been freshly left.

Ye Xiaochuan was happy now. It seemed that Shanxia Zhishu had gone crazy playing in the desert these days. He thought that he could travel underground in the desert without any hindrance. It would be much better to perform earth escape skills than on plain land. At least he would not be in the desert. Hitting tree roots, rocks, etc. under the sand.

Looking at this dilapidated stone house, most of the stone house was buried by yellow sand, and only a small section of the roof was exposed. You don't need to guess to know that when Yamashita was walking under the sand, his head hit the stone wall under the sand. As a result, he failed to master the iron head skill and his nose was bleeding. The blood is still fresh now.

Seeing Ye Xiaochuan gloating and giggling, Yang Jiujiu and Ouyang Caiyu were very curious, so Ye Xiaochuan whispered his analysis, which made the two girls laugh.

Yang Jiu said: "Shanxia, did the injury on your head occur when you hit the stone wall when you used the Earth Escape Technique?"

Yamashita Naoki was very embarrassed. People in small places love face. This is human instinct. For example, poor people love money, ugly women love beauty. People often care about what they don't have. In the eyes of the people in the Middle Earth, Fusang is a small island outside the Great Wall. In the eyes of the cultivators, the Five Elements Sect is not even as good as a small sect in the Middle Earth. Yamashita Naoki also understood this, so he has been trying his best to show that he is no different from the cultivators in the Middle Earth.

In the past few days, many demon sect disciples have been discovered. In fact, it is all his credit, which makes him proud.

As a result, he was found to have smashed his head while performing the escape technique. This kind of shameful thing made him feel ashamed.

After all, Baili Yuan, who belongs to the same lineage as the East China Sea, couldn't stand it anymore. Seeing Ye Xiaochuan and others making fun of Yamashita Naoki, she immediately showed her majesty as the deputy captain and kicked Ye Xiaochuan and others into the stone house to avoid the storm.

Almost half of the stone house was buried in the yellow sand to the west, with only three walls left. As for the western wall, it was now completely buried by the yellow sand. Ye Xiaochuan looked at the people hiding in the corners of the wall. He didn't think these three walls could withstand the storm in the desert.

He now felt more and more clearly that a huge wind force, carrying the power of destroying the world, was moving quickly towards this side. In half an hour at most, this storm should reach here.
