"It's almost like turning into a living dead."
Lin Xin touched his face, still feeling a little emotional.
Suddenly there was a faint sound of footsteps outside the door.
"Sister Qiuqiu, you're here to see Mr. again."
"Yeah, I haven't been here for a few days, maybe the master has woken up and I'm not sure." A gentle and mature female voice came in. Some are like Ma Qiuqiu, but older.
Lin Xin was a little stunned, looked around the room, and found that there was some dust in some tiny places that hadn't been cleaned.
The corners of the books on the bookshelf were also yellowed, as if a long time had passed.
"Could it be that it's been a long time since I practiced this time?" He frowned slightly.
Soon footsteps came to the front of the room, and gently pushed the door open.
squeak...
The door opened.
Standing at the door was a young woman in a pink skirt, looking at her hands in a daze. It seemed that he didn't expect to push the door open so easily.
She raised her head, looked into the room again, and met Lin Xin's gaze for an instant.
"The door... can be pushed open...?" She still couldn't believe it.
He raised his head and looked at Lin Xin for a few seconds.
The woman suddenly rolled her eyes and fell to the ground with a thud.
In the end, Lin Xin could still see the horror in her eyes.
This guy is stunned... ..
He looked at his arm.
"Is it scary?"
There is no flesh on the arm, it is completely a skeleton with skin clinging to the bone.
"It seems a little..." He rubbed his chin and murmured.
The hot tea steam rose up and slowly spread between the two of them.
Lin Xin sat opposite the woman who was stunned just now.
"So, I have been silent for three years?" Lin Xin frowned.
"Yes." The woman was Ma Qiuqiu, but now she has become a slightly mature young woman.
"Since that time, sir, he has completely fallen into a coma. No matter how hard we push, we can't open the door. We can only rely on our own strength to move forward. Along the way, encounters continue. The number of people continues to drop sharply, and now there are only a dozen people left Still alive."
Speaking of this, Ma Qiuqiu's eye circles turned slightly red, obviously he has suffered a lot in the past three years.
"There is still the last distance to Zhongfu. But this is also the most difficult part. My father was also seriously injured and disabled..."
"Thanks for your hard work..." Lin Xin also sighed, the once innocent and cute little guy has now matured, and is no longer as innocent as before. It is conceivable how much training has been experienced in the past three years.
"Mr. Lucky has woken up, otherwise we really don't know what to do now. We have stayed here for more than a month, and we still can't get out of this desert."
"Desert?" Only then did Lin Xin realize that outside the window was a stretch of purple sand dunes, without variegation, as if countless purple sands were piled together.
"This is the Yang Dao on the edge of the Central Mansion, and it is still in the Plain of Everything, but it is only a part of it.
But the landscape plate lost its aura, and the mage was also in an accident last year... without direction guidance, we encountered several blood beast attacks... so we dared to stay where we were. They camped on the spot and looked for life from all around. "Ma Qiuqiu explained in a low voice.
"It's all right now. Fortunately, Mr. finally woke up. We will be able to reach Zhongfu safely."
A look of relief appeared on her face again.
"I don't know what your plan is when you arrive at the Central Mansion?"
"Plan?" Lin Xin was taken aback by this question.
He came alone in this direction only to find a way to dispel the illusion, because he followed the advice of Sword Master Hongye.
But in terms of plans, he really didn't have any special ideas or goals. I have to speculate about the specific idea.
Why did Hongyejian ask him to come to the West Pole. Zhongfu is not considered a place in the West Pole. Maybe go further west.
"If you plan to..." Before he could say the words, he suddenly felt hot in his chest pocket.
He stretched out his hand to feel it, and it seemed to be the pocket where the herring lamp was.
"If you have no other plans. How about our father and daughter entertaining you for a while, what do you think? We have been to Zhongfu many times, so we are familiar with it." Ma Yuan's voice appeared outside the door.
"Ma Yuan asked to see the master." At the end he added.
"Come in." Lin Xin looked sideways at the door.
The door opened slowly. A somewhat old face appeared in front of his eyes. Compared with Ma Yuan a few years ago, at this time he had a haggard face, gray hair, one leg was lame, and his walking was uneven.
"Ma Yuan. I have met my master." There were many people guarding the door behind him, and he vaguely saw a few faces flashing past, and they were mostly excited and relaxed. It was obvious that Lin Xin woke up, and everyone They are all extremely optimistic.
"It's a pity... the cavalry team." Lin Xin sighed, "I had an accident in my practice, which delayed the team for several years, which led to the current situation of the team."
"Please don't say that..." Ma Yuan smiled wryly, "It was my own negligence at the beginning, which caused the murder of the herring lamp. If it weren't for the master's action, I would have died in the wilderness long ago. .”
The three of them sat down, and Lin Xin began to ask about the specific location where he was now. He also asked people to bring up a lot of food and drink. While talking about the situation, he ate and drank to replenish food.
He hasn't eaten for a few years, even if he is physically strong, he has to be consumed and turned into a skeleton to barely survive until now.
After eating, Ma Yuan and his daughter could clearly see that the skin of his body at this time was like a skin sac filled with water, and it was slowly and plump at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Stunned, the two showed Lin Xin where they were at the moment.
"The place where we are now is called Amethyst Road. It is about five hundred miles away from the Central Mansion, but there is a giant chameleon looking for food in front of it, wandering around. We tried to sprint there a few times, but nothing happened. It died without a problem, and even the giant white cow was eaten directly by it as food... Many of our people died."
"Then how far are we from Nanfu?" Lin Xin asked casually.
"how far... ."
Ma Yuan took out the landscape plate, "The master can inject a little spiritual energy into it and you can see it."
Lin Xin took the plate and quickly injected a trace of spiritual energy into his hand.
The red line on the landscape plate suddenly extended and lengthened rapidly, from only half of the original distance to four-fifths of the distance. And stay on a light red dot. Obviously, there was no aura for a long time, which caused the stagnation to show up.
"Is it almost there?" He memorized the whole landscape map carefully. Return it to Ma Yuan.
"Take me to see the guy blocking the way."
Ma Yuan and Ma Qiuqiu were overjoyed immediately, with an obvious look of anticipation on his face.
"Now?"
"Now."
"Sir, you are so refreshing!" Ma Qiuqiu couldn't help laughing.
The three got up and went out the door, and saw a large group of people covered in scars. Some were even disabled, and they all waited outside the door.
Everyone obviously heard what the three of them said just now.
Ma Yuan stepped forward and told them one by one, and there was joy immediately. They all stared at Lin Xin eagerly.
"Let's go." Regardless of how Ma Yuan dealt with the emotions of the crowd, Lin Xin wanted to settle the matter early and go to Zhongfu. It took so long. It is estimated that there is nothing to eat and drink in the team, so they can only rely on the surrounding area to find supplies.
At a glance, there are already many people showing signs of malnutrition. If the delay continues, it may not be those people who died before, but almost everyone present will be sick.
The three led a small group of people out of the bullock cart.
The huge white bull has disappeared, leaving only a large white bone skeleton lying on the sand. Behind him is a huge crooked carriage.
Lin Xin got out of the car and looked around.
Surrounded by endless sand dunes, the purple sand dunes look like the most delicate and smooth artwork at a glance under the sun. No blemishes, just beautiful.
"The only spirit-eating monster and blood beast around here is the chameleon. You only need to release a little spiritual energy to attract it," Ma Yuan said in a low voice.
Lin Xin nodded.
"You all back away, ready to evacuate at any time, I am enough alone."
Ma Yuan and the others also knew they couldn't help, so they stayed away from Lin Xin with Ma Qiuqiu and the others, and returned to the carriage.
Lin Xin walked forward along the sand dunes, walked slowly for hundreds of meters, and climbed up along the soft sand dunes. Every foot and every foot sank into the sand.
Standing on the top of the sand dune, he gently held the red flower sword hilt.
The other hand was raised, and an extremely tiny light red aura slowly rose from the palm.
The aura has a faint sense of self-evolving agility.
Lin Xin frowned slightly.
"Since I created the Qilin move, it seems that the spiritual energy and sword energy in my whole body have undergone some qualitative changes. It seems to be activated by itself, which is really weird."
Without thinking too much at this time, he lightly released the control.
A trace of aura rose from his palm, suspended in front of him like smoke.
Hiss...!
Suddenly, he felt a huge and somewhat mixed aura suddenly appeared in the east direction. Then after a short pause, he rushed towards this side quickly.
A moment later, in the desert in the distance, a purple monitor lizard the size of an elephant could be vaguely seen, spitting out a letter and crawling towards this side at high speed.
Its crawling posture is very strange, shaking from left to right, and its huge purple tail is constantly flicking in coordination. While spitting out the letter in the mouth, drops of viscous, extremely poisonous saliva mucus dripped faintly.
"It seems to exist like a blood beast, immortal, but without sanity." Lin Xin felt the giant lizard carefully, and after a while, he understood its structure.
Boom! Bang bang bang! ! ... ..
The purple monitor lizard rushed towards Lin Xin ferociously. Every step it took, it printed huge palm prints in the desert. Its huge body swayed from side to side, stirring up strong winds.
boom!
When it was tens of meters away from Lin Xin, the monitor lizard suddenly stepped on the ground with its forelegs, and its whole body flew up.
hiss! !
Its huge red letter curled towards Lin Xin like lightning, and at the end of the letter was a beautiful woman's upper body. The woman has sharp claws on her hands and a smile on her mouth, her long purple hair fluttering around her upper body.
