In the desert at noon, the sun scorched the sand. There was no wind at first, but after Lin Luoran noticed the anomaly of the broken walls and ruins, suddenly there was yellow sand all over the sky.
This gust of wind and sand came suddenly, much like the strange wind when Baojia disappeared.
Lin Luoran found that Wen Guanjing stayed in the base for a while, and his eyes became normal again, while Barney and Yaqi, who were tied outside the pillar, were still struggling like two wild beasts losing their minds.
That's right, Wen Guanjing didn't have any abnormalities at the beginning. He went to stop the two of them from fighting, and then his eyes turned red... The problematic place is outside the scope of the broken wall in all directions!
With Lin Luoran's thought in mind, two water ropes flew out and pulled the two bundled into a ball. Sure enough, the two irritable Bushmen gradually calmed down.
Wen Guanjing had lingering fears in his heart, "Senior Sister Lin, this place is too weird, let's get out of here quickly."
Lin Luoran smiled wryly, and pointed to the increasingly violent sandstorm outside:
"Do you think we can leave at this time?"
A sandstorm of yellow sand came and flew around outside the small ruins. Perhaps Lin Luoran and the others could break through the dust and get out, but Barney and Yaki were likely to be torn into pieces by the hurricane.
"Hey, Senior Sister Lin, the dust seems to be kept out of the ruins. Could it be that this was originally a shelter built by someone?" After watching for a while, Wen Guanjing pondered the possibility.
Lin Luoran was not too optimistic. I don't know if it was Yaji's preconceived notion about the "curse of the demon", coupled with Baojia's disappearance, Lin Luoran always felt that there was some uneasiness hidden in their trip.
"This ruin seems to be protecting us from sandstorms, but from another angle, it's more like trapping us here..."
Lin Luoran said lightly, she really didn't want the facts to turn out as she said, that would be a real crow's mouth.
Seeing that Yaqi and Barney's eyes were no longer red, Lin Luoran let go of their rope and asked what happened.
Barney thought about it for a while, and he was obviously playing a little tune at first, but when he heard Chief Yaki complaining non-stop, he felt angry in his heart and wanted to tell him to shut up, so the two wrestled together, and Barney took The stone hit him.
Yaqi was also chattering beside him for a long time. The translation was nothing more than that the Bushmen have always been united and friendly. Why would he complain about Barney? There must be evil spirits and so on.
After listening to the words of the two, Wen Guanjing thought about it, he also felt something at the beginning, when he went to stop the two fighting, because of impatience, he had violent thoughts in his heart, and his eyes gradually became bloodshot...
Lin Luoran was silent for a while: "There is something that we don't know is causing trouble. Fortunately, we discovered it early, otherwise, if even I have suffered..." Although she didn't finish her words, Wen Guanjing could predict the consequences .
That's right, if Lin Luoran also loses her sanity and becomes tyrannical and hurtful, then everyone present may have no way out except herself. Wen Guanjing may last a little longer, but it's a matter of time, even if it is In the late stage of Qi training, after all, there is a threshold difference from the foundation stage, and it is impossible to last long under the irrational Lin Luoran.
In fact, Lin Luoran was safe and sound, one reason is that she has a higher level of cultivation, and the other is that she rarely gets angry with her temperament, as long as she keeps her mind and her spiritual consciousness is as stable as Mount Tai, nothing will happen to her.
Barney cleaned up the wound on Yaqi's head, but the two didn't care about the fight, but Lin Luoran couldn't relax.
Baojia's whereabouts are unknown now, and whether the sandstorm is trying to trouble them or make up their minds to trap them here, she can't feel at ease.
Yaqi murmured the peace mantra unique to the Bushmen, and Barney also started to chant along with him, but Lin Luoran didn't stop him.
The Bushmen knew more about this desert than she and Wen Guanjing, two outsiders.
However, I don't know if the peace mantra recited by the two of Yaqi really worked, and the sandstorm actually subsided gradually.
Yaki's black and thin face finally broke into a smile, and he touched the big lizard on his waist, feeling that this ordeal was about to pass. Barney also laughed, and Lin Luoran and Wen Guanjing looked at each other, both of them looked unhappy.
Lin Luoran's hearing is different from that of ordinary people. There was a strong wind before, and the sound of the wind and sand could not hear anything, but the sandstorm had just subsided. After the wind died down, she heard a rustling sound that made her feel itchy—— What is swarming across the sand
The wind and sand gradually subsided, and Lin Luoran looked into the distance, and sure enough, dense black spots appeared on the sand dunes... When she saw what it was, she felt numb all over her body.
Wen Guanjing's palm flashed with fire, and he also frowned.
This sandstorm, as Senior Sister Lin said, is to trap them here!
Yaqi and Barney also saw the "big army" approaching this place clearly, and both of them were frightened.
Wen Guanjing didn't take it seriously, these "little gadgets" were too useless to deal with two monks.
***********
Scorpions, those densely packed scorpions moving quickly on the sandy ground with their big pincers, Lin Luoran felt his scalp go numb.
Even though some places in Southeast Asia regard this kind of poisonous insect as a delicacy, but now, the entire sand dune is covered with black scorpions, and there are still endless "reinforcements" behind them, no one will arouse their appetite.
"Let's go or take a look..." Wen Guanjing didn't know when he started asking Lin Luoran for his opinion.
The blue light flickered in Lin Luoran's hand, and Zhao Jian suddenly appeared in her hand, "Let's go to a high place and have a look first!"
Zhao Jian swallowed the light, and it became bigger in the wide-open eyes of the two of Barney. Lin Luoran jumped up, and the sword light soared into the sky—damn it, the center of the earth seemed to have a gravitational force, Lin Luoran didn't have it at all. After rushing a few meters high, he was forced to land back.
"Senior Sister!" Wen Guanjing thought something happened to her.
Lin Luoran put away Zhaojian, "There seems to be a restriction here, and we are probably really trapped here."
Wen Guanjing came from a famous family, and he was not as good as Lin Luoran when it came to cultivation, but he knew a lot about orthodox cultivation knowledge. In addition to sword repair, Shushan writers also have a lot of research on prohibition—
The most serious thing at this time is that this Wen Guanjing, who has a little research on self-feeling and restriction, didn't realize that there was a restriction at all after staying here for so long until Lin Luoran was forced to return!
"Senior Sister, the situation is not good. If these scorpions can come in without barriers like us..."
This is what Lin Luoran had a headache for. In a blink of an eye, the army of scorpions was several meters away. She tried the "Wind Control Art" again. Well, the use of spiritual energy is not hindered, but there seems to be a strong glass cover on the top of the head, which will They covered it, and they couldn't move forward after flying a few meters high.
Barney screamed, Wen Guanjing pinched the seal formula with his right hand, and quickly threw out a wall of flames burning in the desert. The fast-moving scorpion was sizzling as soon as it was touched by the flames, and was temporarily burned by the flames. blocked.
The burning scorpion gave off a seductive aroma after a while. Barney swallowed his saliva and put his heart back to the original place for the time being. Security should be guaranteed, right
Yaki was stumbling and reciting his peace spell.
Lin Luoran felt that things were not so simple to understand.
While controlling the spiritual power, Wen Guanjing sensed the aura of prohibition, but unfortunately he still got nothing.
The wall of fire blocked the line of sight, Lin Luoran jumped onto the one-meter-high broken rock, and looked at the black scorpion who was rushing forward and dying one after another, feeling agitated in his heart.
If they are trapped, the army of scorpions will continue endlessly. As the saying goes, there are too many ants to kill elephants. Whether it is the spiritual energy in Wen Guanjing's body or the spiritual power in her body, they will be exhausted at some point—even if she can avoid the space However, the remaining three people are bound to die.
"Not good!" Lin Luoran looked from the broken stone, and those scorpions that had been scorched by the fire had learned how to behave, and started spraying venom from their tails from a long distance away.
A small group, a small group, gathered together, threatened to put out the wall of fire.
What kind of scorpions are these... You must know that Wen Guanjing is a fire wall supported by spiritual energy. This is not an ordinary flame at all, and it can be extinguished by the venom of the scorpion. It can be seen that these scorpions are not mortal!
As the manipulator of the firewall, Wen Guanjing naturally sensed the abnormality of the firewall. He changed his hand gesture and narrowed the range of the firewall to only protect the four of them. He shouted: "Senior Sister Lin, try to see if you can break through it Forbidden!"
As soon as the range of his firewall was closed, the scorpions made an inch of progress and surrounded them again, sparing no effort to spray their venom.
Both Barney and Yaqi were very close to Devin to see the scenery, and they were afraid of being burned by the wall of fire that burned out of thin air. Of course, they were also afraid of being stung by scorpions.
Lin Luoran nodded, and summoned Zhao Jian again.
The blue light flickers, and many functions of the water-type flying sword cannot be used in this dry and hot desert, and the overall power is compromised.
Lin Luoran poured his own spiritual power into it, and the Zhaojian quickly swelled, and the surface was covered with a layer of crystal clear hoarfrost.
Because everyone is in the same circle of fire, the range is narrow, one side is roasted by the spiritual fire, and the other side is the chill of Zhaojian's close proximity. Barney and Yaqi are ordinary people. They are miserable.
Naturally, Lin Luoran would not let them die, not only because of kindness, Baojia has not been found yet, and the mystery of the murals cannot be solved without the two of them.
Zhao Jian's soaring sword light was dazzling in blue, Lin Luoran was about to strike the void above his head with a sword, but saw a group of scorpions screaming, and a black shadow appeared on the other side of the hill—
Wen Guanjing also saw it clearly, the two Bushmen wished they hadn't seen it clearly, Lin Luoran naturally couldn't turn a blind eye.
The army of scorpions made way for a passage, holding their pincers high and bowing their heads, the sand dunes shook. The eyes were like two red lanterns, the whole body was black, and they were seven or eight meters long. A single pincer was taller than Lin Luoran's waist. Thick stuff... is it also a scorpion
Lin Luoran couldn't help clenching the hilt of the sword.
