Ning Yuzhou and Wen Qiao jumped off the back of the camel beast and walked into the abandoned Huangsha City.
The surroundings are very quiet, only the sound of the wind passing through the city, the wind hovering between the broken rocks and broken walls, low and gentle, as if telling something, inexplicably giving people a sense of sadness.
Although this city is not as grand as Shanggu Sand City, its scale is not small. It is already a medium-sized cultivation city in the depths of the desert. Looking around, you can see traces of the city built by humans on the basis of caves. When the city gradually became dilapidated, a lot of abandoned materials were left behind.
They passed through the broken rock and broken wall, and circled around the city.
The city was empty, and there was nothing of value. Thinking about it, I knew that since Senior Brother Chen and the others were able to break into this place because they got lost, there were naturally other people who came here, and even if there were any valuables, they had already been taken away.
When walking inside, you can see the caves that have been transformed into a living environment. They are better preserved than the outer city walls, which shows that the city is still inhabitable.
Wen Qiao touched the window lattice with her hand, and found a thick layer of dust.
Obviously, no other living beings have visited here for a long time. Not only are there no cultivators, there are not even monsters, insects and ants in the floating desert.
"Husband, the caves in this city are still well maintained, and they look clean." Wen Qiao said to Ning Yuzhou while looking at them, "However, why are there no monsters, insects and ants in the desert visiting?" ?”
There are many monsters, poisonous snakes, insects and other things that inhabit the mobile desert, and because the environment of the mobile desert is harsh and the survival resources are scarce, not only the cultivators compete fiercely for the territory, but even the monsters, poisonous snakes, insects and ants are very important. Fight fiercely for the survival of the clan. In particular, some sandstone caves that are suitable for living are also things that those monsters, insects and ants want to grab.
Therefore, the situation in Huangsha City looks a little abnormal.
Someone might have noticed too, but no one could figure out why.
Ning Yuzhou said: "It's not clear yet, let's take a look first."
However, the two of them walked around the whole city, and found nothing except the empty city, and they didn't find anything similar to the stone that Senior Brother Chen picked up.
Wen Qiao took out the light blue stone from the storage bag, stared at the wing ant in the stone, then handed it to the two yellow crystal ants, and asked: "The big ant and the small ant , do you recognize this thing?"
The antennae of the two yellow crystal ants moved, and then put their antennae on the light blue stone.
Ning Yuzhou was speechless when he heard the random "big ants, little ants", and suddenly felt that Wen Tutu's name seemed pretty good, at least he chose it with his heart.
Wen Tutu lay on Wen Qiao's shoulder, looking at the two yellow crystal ants.
"Can you help to find, is there such a stone near here?" Wen Qiao continued to say to the two yellow crystal ants.
Ning Yuzhou couldn't help laughing and said: "Ah, Huang Jing Ant's talent is only responsible for leading the way, and does not have the characteristics of treasure hunting."
As soon as he finished speaking, two yellow crystal ants retracted their tentacles on the stone, then quickly crawled out of the purse, jumped to the ground, crawled around, the two tentacles kept moving, and then moved towards Move in one direction.
Seeing this, Wen Qiao dragged Brother Ning, who was a bit unresponsive, and followed the two yellow crystal ants.
The yellow crystal ants walked all the way, entered the building complex deep in Huangsha City, passed through a long corridor, and came to a room that looked like a sundry place, turned around in the room, and finally lay down in the corner. He moved and looked up at them.
Wen Qiao said in surprise: "You mean, there is something here?"
Ning Yuzhou: "..." He doesn't remember that the mutated yellow crystal ants have the ability to hunt for treasure
Could it be that after the yellow crystal ants mutated, even their instincts changed
The Seventh Prince Ning of Dongling couldn't help thinking about the evolutionary instinct of mutant monsters.
Wen Qiao didn't know that it was rare for her husband to get entangled in what she knew, so she happily leaned over and tapped on the place designated by Huang Jingyi, wanting to see what was going on there.
However, Wen Qiao tossed and tossed for a while, but still found nothing, so she was very puzzled, so she had to call Ning Yuzhou: "Husband, come and have a look."
Her husband is quick-witted and has a rich inheritance, which is better than her half-toned.
Ning Yuzhou walked over, looked at the place where the two yellow crystal ants found, and checked around again, with deep thought in his eyes.
"Husband?" Wen Qiao looked at him eagerly.
Ning Yuzhou came back to her senses, smiled at her, and said, "Don't worry, it's still early in the morning, let's see in the evening."
After Wen Qiao listened, she didn't force herself.
Although they don't know the secrets of this Yellow Sand City, since they are here, they are not in a hurry to leave. They plan to stay here for a while and take a rest.
Wen Qiao then went to lead the camel beast into the city, and at the same time set up some guard formations around it.
It was getting dark soon.
Although this Huangsha City was abandoned for unknown reasons, the caves in the city are still good, and it is also a safe place to live. At night, the wind and sand roared past outside the city, and the city was still safe.
After dark, Wen Qiao ate the medicinal food and fed the two queens of yellow crystal ants, and they returned to the room specially marked by the yellow crystal ants.
Wen Qiao took out the lamp driven by the spirit stone, and instantly the whole room was bright as day.
The room is not big, and there are several cabinets made of spiritual wood around it, which should have been used to store sundries in the past, but when the cultivator left, he didn't take these things with him. The quality of the spirit wood is good, it has been abandoned for so many years, although it has become old, it has not decayed.
Wen Qiao ran to the corner designated by Huang Jingyi to tap and see if he could find anything unusual.
The result is still not found.
So she called Ning Yuzhou again and asked him what he found, but she didn't suspect that the two yellow crystal ants were directing them indiscriminately and leading them indiscriminately.
Ning Yuzhou walked over unhurriedly.
There was a wall there, Ning Yuzhou put his hand on the wall and knocked on the wall.
Wen Qiao had knocked on this wall before, it was solid and there was no hidden world. Just as Wen Qiao was thinking about it, Ning Yuzhou took out a formation-breaking talisman and slapped it at the wall.
That wall seemed to have a self-awareness, and when the formation-breaking talisman was about to be attached, layers of spiritual light suddenly surged and swallowed it.
"Huh?" Wen Qiao was very surprised, "Is there a formation here?"
She stretched out her hand to check, but found that there was nothing, and she didn't feel the fluctuation of the formation.
Ning Yuzhou smiled and said: "If I'm not wrong, there is indeed a formation here, not just one, but multiple formations, forming a nested formation, one of which is a hidden formation, used to cover up the formation. Traces, so it is difficult for ordinary people to find... "
Wen Qiao was confused, and finally understood only one point: there is a formation here, but people who are incompetent cannot easily see it.
Ning Yuzhou stared at the wall, rarely showing interest, "This kind of nested formation requires extremely sophisticated means to arrange it. I don't know who did it."
Wen Qiao asked: "Husband, can you clear the formation?"
Ning Yuzhou turned to look at her.
His gaze was a little weird under the light, which made her inexplicably uncomfortable.
"It will take some time." Ning Yuzhou said, with a meaningful look on his face, "I also want to see what's hidden inside."
With a snort, he took out tables, chairs, tents and the like from the storage bag, intending to keep watch here tonight.
Then, Ning Yuzhou began to face the wall to comprehend the formation, Wen Qiao sat on a chair, Wen Tutu and two yellow crystal ants lay on the table, and then stared at him busy.
It took Ning Yuzhou all night to comprehend this, and he didn't move until dawn.
Wen Qiao also followed him all night, staring at him, and seeing him move, she quickly got up and asked in a low voice, "Husband, is there anything I can help you with?"
Ning Yuzhou turned to look at her, smiled at her, and said, "I have some eyebrows, wait until tonight to disband."
"We have to wait until night again? Why?" Wen Qiao couldn't help asking, considering his behavior yesterday, he thought that this formation would only react at night.
Ning Yuzhou said casually: "It's windy and sandy at night, no one will suddenly come in to disturb you, it's safer."
What he said was so reasonable that Wen Qiao was speechless.
Even so, during the day, Ning Yuzhou went out of the city and walked around the city a few times, watching while walking.
Wen Qiao and the others had nothing to do, so they followed him, walking around and looking around, very casually.
Maybe this place is too remote, even the bandits and monsters from Heiyan Gorge will not come here, Wen Qiao turned around, but found no trace of people or monsters, even the snake ants that often run rampant in the desert No similar poisons were found.
Wen Qiao was a little disappointed.
Until the night came, she quickly recovered and returned to that room.
Ning Yuzhou first set up a large defensive formation nearby, then took out the formation flag, and set up a spirit gathering formation in the room.
When the Spirit Gathering Formation was formed, the spiritual energy from the heaven and the earth surged here frantically. In an instant, the spiritual energy surged in this small room, but within an hour, the surrounding spiritual energy was so rich that the pores of the whole body seemed to be stretched.
Wen Tutu couldn't help but rolled, and liked this environment full of aura very much.
Wen Qiao watched Ning Yuzhou busy in doubt, but didn't ask any questions.
When the aura was strong enough, Ning Yuzhou began to disband the formation.
Wen Qiao watched the process of him dismantling the formation, and suddenly understood why he had to set up a gathering spirit formation around him first, and waited until the surrounding spiritual energy was strong enough to start dissolving the formation.
Because during the process of dismantling the formation, the wall had been absorbing the spiritual energy in the room, and in an instant more than half of the spiritual energy in the room was absorbed, and the original rich spiritual energy became thinner.
Just when the aura in the room was getting less and less, Wen Qiao finally felt the fluctuation of the surrounding formation.
It's the nested formation, it finally showed its traces, and people can clearly feel that there is a formation here.
Wen Qiao stared at the wall with burning eyes, and Wen Tutu stopped rolling, and jumped on her shoulder to watch Ning Yuzhou dismantle the formation. The antennae of the two yellow crystal ants kept moving back and forth in the air. It looks like something has been discovered.
Wen Qiao noticed the behavior of the two yellow crystal ants, and put them on her other shoulder.
Ning Yuzhou quickly made a tactic with both hands. The movement of his hands was as fast as a phantom, which made people dazzled. Wen Qiao felt dizzy after watching it for a while.
She woke up in time, and hurriedly looked away, not daring to look again.
Even so, there was a lot of horror in her heart.
She is currently in the mid-stage of the spiritual realm, and because of the supernatural blood in her body, her sea of consciousness and spiritual consciousness are far stronger than ordinary practitioners. knowledge. It stands to reason that with her current vast sea of consciousness and strong spiritual consciousness, she shouldn't feel dizzy from watching the process of dismantling the formation, unless the formation is so advanced that she can't bear it with her current cultivation.
Her gaze fell on Ning Yuzhou again, and she found fine beads of sweat on his forehead, sliding down his face.
At this time, his expression was very serious, but the movement of his hands did not stop at all.
Following his movements, bursts of spiritual light swayed around him, continuously devouring the spiritual energy in the room.
When Ning Yuzhou's face became paler and paler, finally, the last formula fell, and only a bang was heard, and the formation in the room was broken.
When the formation was cracked, the entire abandoned Huangsha City seemed to make an echoing sound, as if something was broken, and then disappeared in the wind and sand outside.
The formation was broken, and the wall cracked inch by inch, revealing a passage leading down.
Wen Qiao stepped forward quickly, supported her husband, and asked distressedly: "Husband, how are you? Do you want to take a rest?" As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and at the same time took a few tonic pills feed him.
Ning Yuzhou's face was a little pale, he let her sit on the chair, and after swallowing a few nourishing pills, his face finally improved a lot.
"It's not a problem, it's just that the spiritual power is consumed too much." Speaking of this, his brows were slightly frowned, although it was very slight, it still made her look straight.
"Liar, your spiritual consciousness should be almost exhausted." Wen Qiao pointed out bluntly, and said seriously, "You need to rest now."
Ning Yuzhou looked at her with a pair of jet-black eyes, which were bloodshot at some point, looking a little scary.
After a while, he said softly, "Okay, I'll take a rest."
Only then did Wen Qiao smile.
She didn't look at the aisle, but walked around him, giving him the elixir from time to time, stuffing the elixir that he had concocted with Wannianling milk for her as jelly beans into his mouth. Seeing him frowning and showing an uncomfortable expression, he put his hands on his head and massaged him gently to relieve the pain in his brain.
Ning Yuzhou closed his eyes slightly, enduring the sequelae caused by excessive consumption of consciousness.
In fact, he did not expect that the formation here would be so huge, not only this room, but covering the entire city, so when dissolving the formation, the energy consumed would be huge, if not for his spiritual sense is far stronger than ordinary people , I'm afraid that if he can't support him to remove the formation at all, he will be backlashed by the formation, causing the sea of consciousness to collapse.
After resting for a while, he finally opened his eyes.
"Husband, how are you?" Wen Qiao asked quickly.
Ning Yuzhou smiled at her, took her hand, and said softly: "Ah, I'm much better, don't waste the panacea."
"It's okay, it's not a waste on you." Wen Qiao said naturally.
Hearing this kind of confession, Ning Yuzhou's heart trembled.
I don't know if it's because the elixir was too much, but a slight blush appeared on the jade face, which made her a little dazed and at a loss.
Ning Yuzhou was in a bit of a panic, but he didn't reject the affection caused by her. He couldn't help but hugged her in his arms, and kissed her slightly parted lips because of his confusion...
