When the red sunset in the desert reached the other end of the horizon, when darkness fell, strong winds and sandstorms raged.
The sweeping sandstorm is like a terrifying monster that chooses people to devour, covering the sky and covering the earth, roaring and spreading in this yellow sand land, devouring all the creatures in the depths of the sandstorm.
Wen Qiao stood in front of the cave, looking at the world outside the cave through the restriction.
The wind and sand roared past, covering the sky and the sun, and the whole world fell into a terrible disaster.
Facing the terrifying power from nature, this group of cultivators who are going against the sky are so small that they can only hide in this small cave and listen to the voices of the outside world.
She could feel the terrifying power hidden in the wind and sand, a kind of restriction that even the gods could not touch.
"Ah, come and rest."
Hearing Ning Yuzhou's voice in the cave, Wen Qiao turned her head and walked deep into the cave.
The cave was about three feet deep, and two camels were placed in front of the cave, and they rested in the innermost part of the cave.
At this time, some tables and chairs were added to the originally empty cave.
Ning Yuzhou was sitting on a low stool, and there was a pill stove in front of him. A talisman fire was burning under the pill stove, and the air was filled with a delicious smell.
On the table next to it, Wen Tutu squatted there and gnawed the spirit fruit, staring at the yellow crystal ants who were eating yixiang leaves with those ruby eyes while gnawing.
The yellow crystal ant is an omnivorous monster. Although its staple food is the ant scented leaf, it can also eat anything else. When there is no food to eat, it can even eat sand. It is a very easy to feed ant monster. However, the yellow crystal ants' favorite is the ant fragrance leaf. The ant fragrance leaf can not only make their bodies stronger and their shells more beautiful, but also allow them to evolve.
Since yixiang leaves are good for them, Wenqiao is not stingy, and feeds them with yixiang leaves. Anyway, there is already an yixiang leaf tree planted in the space, so they can eat whatever they want.
Suddenly, Wen Tutu slapped a yellow crystal ant with his paw and sent it flying.
From the corner of Wen Qiao's eyes, he saw something flying over, stretched out his hand to grab it, and opened his hand to look, and found that it was a yellow crystal ant, and then looked at the demon rabbit on the table with an innocent face gnawing on the spirit fruit, and he understood what happened thing.
Putting the yellow crystal ants back on the table, Wen Qiao taught Wen Tutu with a serious face: "Wen Tutu, don't bully Huang Jing ants."
Wen Tutu gnawed on the spirit fruit, as if she didn't know what she was talking about.
After the yellow crystal ant that was swat away by the rabbit's paw was sent back to the table by Wen Qiao, it calmly climbed onto a piece of ant fragrance leaf, gnawing on it silently, without noticing what happened at all.
Another yellow crystal ant also ate the leaves calmly, indifferent to what happened to the other companion.
Of the three mutated monsters they raised, one pretended to be innocent, and the other two didn't realize what was going on at all, and their preaching was useless.
Wen Qiao sighed, and put Wen Tutu into her arms, planning to separate them as much as possible in the future.
After the soup in the Dan furnace was stewed, Ning Yuzhou put a bowl of hot soup in front of her, and watched her drink it with a smile.
Wen Qiao ate a few mouthfuls, tasted the diluted Wannianling emulsion added to the soup, and couldn't help but look up at him.
Ning Yuzhou asked, "What's wrong? Does it taste bad?"
"No, very good." Wen Qiao pinched the spoon, "Aren't you going to drink?"
"No, it's for your body conditioning, it's useless to me."
"How can it be useless? Wannian spiritual milk is added in it." Wen Qiao didn't care, and handed him the spoon, "You want to drink too, we each have half."
Seeing her stubborn appearance, Ning Yuzhou couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and when she frowned, he said softly, "Okay, I'll drink too."
Seeing that he finally took the spoon to drink the soup, Wen Qiao pursed her lips and laughed.
In this three-foot-deep cave, the two of them sat together and used the same spoon to finish a bowl of steaming and delicious soup.
After drinking the soup, Wen Qiao took out the tent from the storage bag and set up a tent around it.
After setting up the tent, she called Ning Yuzhou into the tent to rest, and said, "Tonight is the first night in the desert. There should be no danger. We can sleep well and keep our spirits up to continue our journey tomorrow."
Ning Yuzhou was amused, but agreed with her.
The mobile desert at night is not only dangerous, but the temperature drops rapidly. By midnight, the walls of the cave have been covered with a layer of frost, and the two camels at the entrance of the cave are huddling together to keep warm.
It was freezing cold, and Wen Tutu couldn't bear it, so he quickly got into the tent.
The two yellow crystal ants were not affected. They were originally monsters of the mobile desert, and they had already adapted to the desert climate. Ning Yuzhou asked them to keep watch at night.
—
Sure enough, nothing happened that night except for the wind and sand raging outside.
After dawn, the wind and sand receded, and the world returned to tranquility again.
A round of red sun rises from the horizon, and the desert is a golden color. When the sun rose, the frost receded, and the temperature on the surface rose rapidly, and soon the yellow sand on the ground became hot, like a steamer.
The cry of camel beasts, accompanied by the sound of camel bells, broke the tranquility of the desert morning.
Everyone came out of the cave one after another, led the camel beast, and prepared to set off.
The desert climate is dry during the day, and the whole world seems to be scorched by fire. Fortunately, the cloak on the cultivator can adjust the temperature, so it is not too uncomfortable.
Camels are monsters that can walk in the moving desert. They are docile and harmless, driven by humans, and they don't know what fatigue is.
During the day, they walked in the desert with camels as their substitutes, and the moving sand had little effect on them. When the sun went down, they went to rest in the caves along the way to spend the dangerous night.
The caravans living in the mobile desert all have a clear map in their hands, knowing where there are caves formed by sandstone, when to rest, and the time is just right. This is why many people like to follow the caravan into the mobile desert. s reason.
On the third day after entering the desert, they came to the first human cultivation city in the desert.
This practice city was naturally built by artificially transforming sandstone caves. The caves here are larger and more numerous than they have ever seen after entering the mobile desert, forming a complete and rich group of caves, which were then transformed into A practice city located in the desert, many practitioners settled here and became residents of the desert.
The first stop of the caravan is here.
They will make some repairs here, sell a batch of goods brought in from outside to the shops in the training city, and buy some special products in the desert, and sell them to the training city outside after leaving the mobile desert.
You need to pay 20 spirit stones to enter the city.
This entry fee is more expensive than those of the large training cities in the Central Continent, but this is a city in a mobile desert, and their rules are like this, you can't enter if you like.
After entering the practice city, first of all, there is a huge cave with a width of one hundred feet and a height of ten feet.
There are quite a lot of practitioners in the cave, which is divided into two areas. One side is a place for practitioners to park camel beasts. There are special people to help guard and charge fees according to the number of days they stay.
On one side is a small market, where many cultivators set up stalls to sell some special products of the mobile desert, such as the corpses and furs, flesh and bones of various monsters in the mobile desert, flesh and bones, demon pills, etc., as well as spirit grass , the number is quite large, and it is dazzling to see.
After parking the camel beast, Ning Yuzhou and Wen Qiao went to the market for a stroll.
Those cultivators greeted them warmly, but when they found out that these two belonged to the kind of customers who only looked at but didn't buy, their faces turned down very quickly.
Wen Qiao has seen many business people, and this is the first time she finds it so realistic, so she doesn't want to buy it.
If they want these things, they can go hunting by themselves and not waste that money.
After reading it, the two went to the city to rent a cave to rest.
After a night's rest, the caravan continued to set off the next day.
When setting off, Wen Qiao took a special look at the practitioners following the caravan, and found that there were a few people missing, and those people should have stayed in the cultivation city. And those cultivators who were arrogant did not leave, they still followed the caravan.
Wen Qiao didn't feel very good about them. Although she couldn't see the faces under the cloak clearly, she felt that they had bad intentions towards the caravan and their group.
Since entering the desert, except when resting at night, the cloaks on their bodies have not been removed, and they are blocked by hoods, so they don't know each other's appearance.
On the tenth day of entering the mobile sand city, because they encountered a group of red crystal ants on the way, they wasted some time and almost missed their accommodation.
"It's getting dark, let's go!"
The practitioners of the caravan hissed and roared, urging the camel beasts under them to speed up.
Others also ran wildly with the caravan.
The camel beast changed its usual leisurely pace and ran wildly on the yellow sand, setting off a cloud of smoke and dust.
However, even if they hurried, the night came as expected.
When the sun disappeared bit by bit on the horizon, a wisp of wind blew against the ground. The wind brought a dangerous breath, and the heart seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand. When the power of nature descends, the scalp becomes numb.
Some practitioners disliked the speed of the camel beast, so they gave up on the camel beast and rushed forward.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and there was a burst of dust on the ground.
The dust was noisy, and the wind and sand blinded the eyes, and soon covered the road in front of us.
In the distance, a shadow standing in the wind and sand is looming, like a guardian animal that has been stationed in the wind and sand since ancient times.
When the people in the caravan saw the shadow, their faces showed ecstasy, and they shouted: "Hurry up, everyone, there is a safe cave to rest in front of you! Hurry up, hurry up, it's almost here."
As if they were saved from a desperate situation, a group of people rushed forward with surprise on their faces.
At this time, the billowing sand and dust from the desert had chased after them. Human beings seemed to be racing against time, running wildly in the wind and sand.
More and more people abandoned the camel beast and ran wildly. Wen Qiao also felt that the speed of the camel beast was really slow, so he jumped off the back of the camel beast immediately, and pulled Ning Yuzhou off the back of the other camel beast, carrying it with one hand. Holding him, carrying a camel beast in one hand, he ran wildly with the people in front.
Ning Yuzhou: "..."
The wind and sand roared from behind them, devouring the abandoned camel beasts.
The painful cries of the camels came from the wind, and the smell of blood could be vaguely smelled in the air.
Wen Qiao's face was tense, she buried her head and ran with the others, feeling the danger brought by the wind and sand behind her, her scalp was numb, at this moment there was only one thought in her mind: run, run, run!
At the last moment when the wind and sand swallowed them, they finally succeeded in entering the cave standing in the dark desert.
The wind and sand blew across the cave entrance, like the death scythe waved by the god of the underworld.
Those slow cultivators were swallowed by the roaring wind and sand, and there was a shrill scream in the wind and sand, and some blood sprayed to the entrance of the cave, and was quickly taken away by the wind and sand.
The people who entered the cave were gasping for breath, their eyes staring in horror at the whistling wind and sand outside the cave.
Even experienced desert travelers are still in shock and terrified at this time.
In the face of the might of nature, no one can keep calm.
Wen Qiao was also terrified, she took a deep breath, and silently put down her husband and the hunchback that was tightly strangled by her, with its feet in the air.
Ning Yuzhou who was put down by her silently adjusted the cloak on her body.
The camel beast, which had been forced to stand on all fours, poked its head meekly and rubbed against her, as if thanking her for saving her life.
Therefore, the camel beast is really a good partner of human beings. No matter how it is treated, it will never be angry with human beings, and will not even actively attack human beings.
After a while, everyone was relieved.
The cave here is relatively small, and there is only one cave. The cave is about ten feet deep and twenty feet wide, and it can accommodate more than a hundred people.
The people in the caravan began to count the number of people, and found that this time due to the delay in arriving at the resting cave, a total of nearly twenty people were lost. The caravan lost eight people, and the rest were the practitioners who followed the caravan.
After counting the losses, the people in the caravan looked for a place to rest and did what they had to do.
Wen Qiao pulled Ning Yuzhou to find a corner to rest, and the camel followed them docilely.
After laying a monster skin on the ground as a cushion, Wen Qiao pulled her husband to sit down, while secretly looking at the people in the cave.
Everyone is going to rest in a cave tonight, so the atmosphere in the air is a little delicate.
Wen Qiao noticed that none of the few practitioners who made her feel uncomfortable entered the cave.
Because they came to safety, most of them pulled down the hoods of their cloaks to reveal their true faces.
Everyone in the caravan is familiar with the appearance of the people, but those who are not in the caravan are always wearing hoods, and others rarely see their appearance.
When Wen Qiao pulled down the hood, she keenly felt a few presumptuous gazes. She turned her head to look over and found that it was those practitioners who made her uncomfortable.
This group of cultivators also pulled down their hoods, revealing their true faces.
They are a group of male cultivators, tall and strong, with an aura from the mobile desert. Although they conceal it very well, Wen Qiao is naturally quite sensitive to people's emotions and aura. Know something about the Moving Desert.
These people are dangerous.
Wen Qiao marked them as "dangerous people" and needed precautions. If necessary, she would not mind beating them up violently.
Others were also secretly looking at the people in the cave, their eyes intertwined with each other, and each was vigilant.
Ning Yuzhou pulled down his hood, revealing a graceful and beautiful face, with a temperament as bright as the moon, which stood out among thousands of people, and the surrounding eyes fell on him, especially some female cultivators, who almost forgot Look away.
Wen Qiao frowned.
Covering her cloak, Ning Yuzhou squeezed her hand and smiled at her.
So Wen Qiao quickly ignored the eyes around her, but didn't know that more eyes were on her.
Ning Yuzhou's eyes darkened slightly.
Wen Tutu scratched the edge of Wen Qiao's hood and looked out. Two yellow crystal ants also climbed out of the purse and hid in the cloak. The two tentacles on their heads trembled in the air.
