Shao Xuan and his party followed the flying insect and ran in the desert.
The stamina of the flying insect is very strong, and it only rests at night. When it is hungry, it scrapes the waxy food in the oval ball. Shao Xuan also feeds it some water. Anyway, such a small flying insect consumes Not much water.
When following the flying insects to find someone, Shao Xuan also sensed the existence of Sapphire. At first, he planned to find someone first, but now finding someone is the most important thing. After finding someone, he will go to Sapphire. Anyway, he and There is an induction between Sapphire. As the first slave, the connection between Sapphire and Shao Xuan is even closer. Knowing that Sapphire has woken up, and there is no danger, Shao Xuan will not pay special attention for the time being. If Sapphire senses it, he will find him.
For example, now, Shao Xuan senses that Sapphire is coming in his direction. What's more, Sapphire is in the direction they are walking. If they keep walking there, they should be able to meet.
Find a place with rocks to rest first, add some water, adjust the state, and the group continues to search.
"We haven't seen those legendary weirdos." Tuo glanced around, and the heat wave on the sand made the air a little distorted.
Not aware of other people's breath, nor of dangerous beasts, he opened the kettle and drank some water, and noticed what was under his feet, Tuo poked with his feet, poked the sand on the surface of the ground to the side, revealing a white bone underneath .
This kind of thing has been seen a lot. Sometimes they can find bones from the sand with a fall. Some are human, some are beasts. It should not be long, otherwise even bones in this desert will be lost. will not stay.
Judging from the scars on the bones, the fatal wound was caused by a sharp weapon, not the claws or teeth of a beast, but more like a human weapon.
"In addition to those weird people in Yanling, there are also sand thieves in the desert, everyone should be on guard." Shao Xuan said.
"A Xuan, what kind of worker from the Jiajia family are you talking about, is he still alive?" Lei asked. The conditions in the desert are so harsh, and besides the weather, there are also threats from people and beasts. There are only ten people in the Gongjia family. Can they really survive until they find the past
"It is certain to be alive. If you are eaten by sand beasts or killed, don't even want to leave a whole corpse in a place like this. In that case, the flying insects will stop." Gong Jiaheng's scroll has been read, and Gong Jiaheng also said on it that if they find that the flying insects have stopped and lingered for a long time, they don't need to continue to look for it. This phenomenon only means that those people have not That luck persisted until they were found.
"So that's the case, so the person we're looking for is still alive. It's great." Lei laughed. He didn't want to come to the desert, the technicians didn't see it, only some broken bones.
Several people were talking when they found that Shao Xuan was staring in one direction, and Tuo asked, "A Xuan, what did you find?"
Shao Xuan shook his head, "I just sensed the movement of Sapphire, it's coming this way, we should be able to see it soon."
"Sapphire? It's here?!" Tuo, Lei and the others looked around. They still remembered the beetle raised by Shao Xuan. When it was first raised, it was a little small and could be crushed to death by a single finger. When Xuan brought Zhengluo and the others over, Sapphire appeared again, already taller than them.
"I haven't seen you for so long, I don't know if that little guy has grown again," Lei said.
"It must have grown up a bit." According to the previous rules, the size of the sapphire will increase every time it is unlocked. Now that the fourth lock is released, it must be bigger than the third lock at that time, Shao Xuan thought to himself.
There were a few people in the team who had never seen sapphire, but they had heard it before, but now I don't remember it in retrospect. The only thing I can remember is that the bug can cause a swarm of insects. It is said that the insect tide is also one of the terrifying sights in the desert, and it is not suppressed by sandstorms.
Thinking about it this way, they were looking forward to seeing the insect tide.
After resting, he continued on his way. In the afternoon of the next day, Shao Xuan was walking, suddenly stopped and looked forward.
Tower and the others raised their hands to block the sunlight and looked in that direction.
Something is approaching.
Not human, but beast.
Taben wanted everyone to be vigilant, but saw Shao Xuan raised his hand and waved, "It's Sapphire."
sapphire
Tuo looked forward, and after a while, he saw a large ball appearing on the sand dune in front of him.
Yes, the big ball, it looks like it's made of sand, and there seems to be something on the ball.
After crossing the sand ridge, the ball rolls directly down the slope of the dune.
"Dodge!" The tower led people out of the way, and the ball rolled past them.
The wind driven by the large ball with a height of more than ten meters rolling over the sand can make people clearly feel the size and weight of this sand ball.
However, everyone's sight on the sand ball was not long, and they soon noticed that behind the sand ball, there was a faint blue figure that was quickly approaching here.
Lei's chin almost fell, and he pointed at the big bug that was approaching quickly: "Blue... That bug?!"
"It is." Shao Xuan nodded.
"This is called 'a little'?!" Lei looked at the big beetle that was ten paces away, which was much taller than his house, "How did it grow so big! What did it eat to become Such?"
Last time, the beetle was only a little taller than a person on the ground, but now it is twice as high!
The first time I saw the flaming horn warrior of Sapphire, he looked at the big guy in amazement, then turned his head and whispered to the person next to him, "Didn't you say that there is only one person tall?"
"The last time I looked at it, it wasn't that big!" Another shouted.
Over there, Sapphire was very happy to see Shao Xuan, and after coming over, he circled around Shao Xuan a few times, because the others stood with Shao Xuan, and when Sapphire circled, he circled them all in the circle.
Even if they knew that the bug was no threat to them, some people could not control their nervousness. After all, such a big guy was so close, which made them feel a lot of pressure.
After a few laps, Sapphire hurriedly chased the sand ball that had already rolled away, then stood upside down and rolled the sand ball back with his hind legs until it rolled in front of Shao Xuan.
This is a gift to the slave owner as a slave. It collected a lot of food, and then rolled over together. It is his hobby to collect things and roll them into balls.
After rolling the sand ball in front of Shao Xuan, Sapphire stood by and waited, like a slave who was expecting an evaluation from the slave owner, looking apprehensive.
Only then did everyone see what was on the sand ball.
Although the sand ball is mainly composed of some sand, animal claws and scales can also be seen on the exposed ones.
"Is there a sand beast in here?" Lei leaned closer curiously, "How did the ball get wrapped up? The sand was also sticky and it didn't spread out."
Shao Xuan didn't answer. He saw the flying insect hovering above the sand ball, and a bad premonition arose in his heart. Looking at it from a different perspective, after seeing the skeletons inside, the expression on Shao Xuan's face froze.
A sharp knife light flashed, the sand ball was broken, and a person rolled down from the break.
"Hahaha, who is this, poor thing, he was actually wrapped in a sapphire goal!" Lei and the others laughed loudly. Who is this person? People from Yanling? Sand pirates? The latter is more likely. After all, after Yanling has those weird people, it is rare to see normal people. As for the sand thieves, they are not a good thing anyway, and life and death have nothing to do with them.
But soon, they saw the flying insects circle in the air, and then landed on the person who rolled down from the sand dunes, his unkempt face was covered with sand and dust, and he couldn't see his appearance at all.
Shao Xuan: "..."
Others: "..." Can't laugh anymore.
What the hell! No way? !
This flying insect is used to find the target person. For the sake of accuracy, Gong Jiaheng said that only let this flying insect look for the only target, and there will be no misidentification.
Now, this flying insect, which was only used to find the target person, stopped on a person who seemed to have swallowed his breath.
The people who reacted rushed over, and the tower personally checked to see if the motionless person who was thrown was still alive. If the man dies, their trip is for nothing.
After the investigation, Ta slowly exhaled with a sigh of relief, "The breath is weak, but it is still alive, and the condition is not very good."
"Give him a drink first." Shao Xuan had put a pill into the pot to melt and handed it to the tower.
"This person... the one from Gongjia's family we're looking for?" Tuo asked Shao Xuan while looking at the person on the ground.
"Looking at the appearance of the flying insects, he was right."
Shao Xuan looked at the work armor on the ground, "The injury is relatively serious. I don't know what else he encountered before he met Sapphire."
Having said that, Shao Xuan looked at Sapphire standing aside.
Presumably realizing that he had made a mistake, Sapphire moved the sand uneasily. Originally, I wanted to please the master, but as a result, I almost killed the target that the master was looking for.
At that time, when it was completely wrapped in lizards on the ligament of the armor, it would not let go of the other people hiding in the sand if the target was really a human.
"The medicine has been fed. As for what will happen in the future, we need to see it again." Tower got up and said.
Now that the key person has been found, they are not in a hurry to hurry, but find a place to rest first. Now it is almost time for the sun to go down, and the wounded worker, He Jiaren, needs to be settled.
Find a suitable place and set up the tent. The brackets of this tent are made of new bronze, and each of the separated brackets can be used as a weapon. When they are used, they are assembled and covered with cloth, which is a temporary tent.
Fifty people huddled together in the tent to make do, but if there were no sandstorms or the like, they would rest outside.
Now, this tent is used to house the wounded worker. It's rare to find him, but he can't just die like this.
Fortunately, although the injury was serious, after the medicine was given, the toughness of the armor quickly stabilized, and there was no danger to life, and the weak beating pulse had become stronger.
