Wu Xie and Jie Yuchen walked aimlessly in the desert. They had no idea which direction the main force was going. Both compasses failed and they completely lost their direction.

Under the scorching sun, both of them were exhausted, and Wu Xie, who was thirsty, no longer had the strength to walk.

He simply sat down and took out the water bag from his backpack.

The empty water bag felt light and weightless in the hand.

He shook the water bag desperately, and after making sure there was not a drop of water, he threw it on the ground in angrily.

Seeing his dry and chapped lips, Xie Yuchen had no choice but to take out his water bag and hand it to him.

There was still a mouthful of water in his water bag, but just a mouthful of water, which was far from enough for the two of them to walk out of this endless desert together.

Wu Xie took the water bag, unscrewed the lid impatiently, and drank the water in one gulp.

That little bit of water was far from enough to quench his thirst, so he shook the water bag in his hand vigorously and opened his mouth wide, trying to pour out some more water from the bag.

Even if it's just a drop of water, it's good.

"There's no water left, Wu Xie. What should we do now? Do you think they will come looking for us?"

Xie Yuchen took the water bag from Wu Xie and threw it on the ground. He looked into the distance. For some reason, a vague expectation arose in his heart. He felt that Zhang Hanyan would come to find them.

Wu Xie shook his dizzy head, trying to keep himself awake, and spoke weakly.

“I don’t know if other people will come, but if Brother and Hanyan find out that we are gone, they will definitely come to find us first.

Don't worry, Xiaohua. With them here, the two of us will definitely not lose our lives in this desert."

The sun was shining brightly and Xie Yuchen was already exhausted. His legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead and he didn't want to move forward at all.

He thought about it, then walked over to Wu Xie and sat down, then asked tentatively.

"Wu Xie, how long have you... known them?"

"Who are they? Brother and Hanyan? It's been a long time. The first time I met them was at the train station in Hangzhou. My third uncle invited them to join us in picking up Lama.

Hmm... no, now that I think about it, the first time I really saw them was at the door of my third uncle's house.

At that time, my third uncle got a good item, which was the black gold ancient knife in the young man's hand. They went to my third uncle to buy the knife, and I passed them by at the gate.

Later, we went to the Qixing Palace, Xisha Undersea Tomb, Qinling Mountains, Changbai Mountain Yunding Palace, and now. "

Wu Xie paused and looked into the distance at the sun which was gradually moving away from the center. The sunlight was still so strong that it made him dizzy.

“Actually, if you think about it carefully, we haven’t known each other for very long, but we have been through a lot together. If you count it all, we can be considered friends for life and death.

Xiaohua, do you know? They are so good that even Zongzi has to kneel down to them. You don’t know, when I first saw that scene, I was almost scared to death. "

Wu Xie said this as he lowered his head and chuckled, the image of himself going into the tomb for the first time emerged in his mind.

At that time, he was young and reckless, and he liked to pester Wu Sanxing with questions, which made Wu Sanxing very annoyed.

If I were not Uncle San's biological nephew, I would have been slapped to death by Uncle San, right?

Xie Yuchen looked at Wu Xie who was immersed in memories. He didn't know why, but whenever he thought about the fact that Wu Xie had been able to spend such a long time with Zhang Hanyan, he felt a little depressed.

"Wu Xie, actually, I have known your sister much earlier than you."

This angry remark successfully stunned Wu Xie. He turned around, looked at Jie Yuchen in confusion, and asked doubtfully.

"What sister? You have another sister?"

His slow look instantly made Xie Yuchen speechless. He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt that he was a little ridiculous.

He didn't expect that now, in such a harsh environment, he still had the time and energy to compete with Wu Xie, a fool.

Why am I telling him this? After all these years, when did I become so childish? It's inexplicable!

"Why are you silent? You haven't told me who your sister is yet?"

Xie Yuchen was at his wits' end as Wu Xie pestered him, so he had to raise his hand to stop him. Under his puzzled gaze, he slowly spoke.

"The sister I'm talking about is the Han Yan you mentioned. I was only eight years old when I met her, so I said that I knew her earlier than you."

"What! You knew her when you were eight? Oh my god...how old is Han Yan now?"

Xie Yuchen was stunned, looking at Wu Xie in disbelief as he counted on his fingers to calculate Zhang Hanyan's age. He obviously didn't expect that Wu Xie's train of thought could be so bizarre.

"Wu Xie, your brain is really..."

Xie Yuchen gave Wu Xie a thumbs up and then looked up at the sky in silence.

When Zhang Hanyan saw them, they were both lying on their backs on the sand, with their eyes closed and motionless.

If their chests hadn't been still rising and falling steadily and powerfully, she would have almost thought that they were both dead.

"Hey, you two, you seem to be quite relaxed. You even have the time to sunbathe here?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Xie and Jie Yuchen opened their eyes at the same time, raised their hands to slightly block the glaring light, and looked at her with her arms folded across her chest, talking and smiling.

She was dressed in a fiery red dress, with long black hair like a waterfall. The bright sunlight shining down on her made her look even more radiant and stunning.

"Han Yan! You are finally here!"

When Wu Xie saw her, he excitedly jumped up and looked at her with a smile.

“You don’t know how long Xiaohua and I have been walking in this desert. We are so hungry and thirsty that we can’t walk any more.

I know you will come to find us, so Xiaohua and I will just wait for you here, and we can save our energy."

Xie Yuchen stood up slowly, brushed off the sand on his clothes, and looked at her with the corners of his lips raised in a smile.

"elder sister."

His call of "sister" successfully made Wu Xie beside him shiver inexplicably, and his face was filled with fear as if he had seen a ghost.

"Let's go, I'll take you back."

Wu Xie looked at the long sword in Zhang Hanyan's hand, and recalled the experience of being carried away before, his face full of excitement and eagerness to try.

"Yu Jian is going back? Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"

What is Wu Xie so excited about? What does it mean to fly back on the sword? Aren’t we just walking back?

Before Xie Yuchen could open his mouth to ask, Zhang Hanyan suddenly lifted him onto the floating sword. He tried his best to steady his shaking body and looked at the sword under his feet, feeling helpless all over.

"Han Yan, there's me and there's me..."

Wu Xie stood on tiptoe, stretched out his hands, and waited happily for Zhang Hanyan to pull him up.

"Stand still. If you fall, you'll be smashed into a pool of pulp."

"Stand still, let's go!"

Compared to Wu Xie's excitement that was beyond words, Xie Yuchen, who was experiencing this for the first time, was in a completely confused state from the beginning to the end.

"We're here. The camp is right in front of us. There are a lot of people and it's hard to see why. We can just stop here and walk over."

Zhang Hanyan waited until the two of them were standing still before she retracting her sword.

The long sword was wrapped around the waist again, making her waist look even thinner and barely wide enough to be held in one hand.

"How was it, Xiaohua? Wasn't it exciting? But the flight time was too short. It would be better if the flight time could be longer next time."

Wu Xie recalled the experience of flying on the sword just now, with an expression of being unsatisfied.

Xie Yuchen completely ignored him. He still hadn't fully recovered from the extremely shocking scene just now.

"Let's go, Xiaohua."

Wu Xie urged, pulling Xie Yuchen to follow Zhang Hanyan forward.

[Host, you scared the child so much that he hasn't come to his senses yet. How pitiful...]

As a child, the more you experience, the stronger your ability to withstand blows will be. It's okay...

[Oh...what a sin...]

"Han Yan."

Zhang Qiling, who was waiting for her return in the camp, saw her from afar. He walked towards her quickly and glanced at the two people following her calmly.

"What took you so long? Where did you find them?"

“You may not believe it, but when I found them, they were sunbathing and they didn’t seem to be worried about dying in the desert.

Brother, have all of Aning's men been found?"

Zhang Qiling shook his head slightly, "No, there are still four people who have not been found. Dingzhu Zhuoma said that they may have entered the Devil City.

Aning said that she was going to look for them in the Devil City, and would set off as soon as you came back.

Zhang Hanyan thought of the original plot line and frowned in annoyance.

Alas... I couldn't avoid it after all. I still had to go to the Devil City in the end. Thinking about those countless corpse beetle kings...

Annoying! I might as well just burn them to death!
