Chapter 044: The Southern Wilderness 2

In the land full of yellow sand, it is very difficult for camels to carry people.

The closer to that building, the weirder it felt to Luo Chuan.

If you look closely, you can see that all the wind in the Southern Wilderness seems to be blowing from that building.No plants can be seen in other places, but there are many vines growing around this building.This kind of vines grew around the building, tightly wrapping the part of the building close to the ground.

"Sanctuary vine."

Luo Chuan looked at Jiang Daoyang, "You know him?"

"Uh, sanctuary vines are also called blood-sucking vines, and there are usually many corpses where they grow. I've only seen them in some ancient battlefields."

Strange buildings in the desert, growing in the surrounding sanctuary vines.All this is very strange, something Luo Chuan has never seen before.

The three brothers still led the way calmly.

After hearing Jiang Daoyang's answer, the boss laughed and said, "Hey, does this lord know about blood-sucking vines? You don't know that there was a massacre in this Wu Clan territory before, and in that killing, the Wu Clan was almost wiped out. Only the patriarch fled to the depths of the desert with a dozen people. Some people said that those who escaped went to the city that never sleeps in the depths of the desert. In my opinion, it is all nonsense. The southern wasteland is uninhabited. Stay in the depths of the desert. It’s hard work for a few days, let alone building a city deep in the desert.”

Jiang Daoyang felt wrong, it was just a killing, and the blood produced was not enough to support the growth of vampire vines.

As we talked, we reached the side of the building.

The three brothers went in first, followed by Luo Chuan and Jiang Daoyang.

When walking through the long corridor, Luo Chuan kept his hand on Zhiqiao, always vigilant.

Arriving inside the building, the three brothers sat aside smiling, with no trace of malice on their faces.Luo Chuan also sat down next to Jiang Daoyang, took out the dry food and water he had prepared, and ate.

Luo Chuan looked around while chewing what was in his mouth.There are no windows in this building, but it is surprisingly bright, and everything about the Wu Clan is strange.

--boom--

With a long voice, Luo Chuan saw with his own eyes that the eldest of the three brothers pushed down a mechanism.

The area under their feet dropped rapidly, and Luo Chuan grabbed Jiang Daoyang's collar and quickly stepped back a few steps to hide aside.

I saw that the sunken place was covered with sharp cone-shaped stones, covered with thick red blood scabs.It seems to be a place for sacrifices. The cattle and sheep are driven to this area, and then the mechanism is pressed, and the cattle and sheep fall directly on the sharp cone, so that blood can flow all over the altar.Judging from the thickness of the blood scab, many sacrificial victims should have died. From this point of view, the blood-sucking vines outside are reasonable.

Luo Chuan looked up and coldly glanced at the three of them, took Jiang Daoyang's fan and threw it over.The fan turned and circled, and a sharp blade flashed in the air, cutting on the three of them.

Bypassing the circular depression, Luo Chuan and Jiang Daoyang came to the side of the three of them.

"What do you want to do?"

The boss was stabbed in the stomach, bleeding, and he gritted his teeth in pain, "Please forgive me, my lords! We are just being obsessed with ghosts and coveting your money."

To be honest, this is the first time the boss has done this kind of thing.

For hundreds of years, since the legend of the underground city that never sleeps, there have been crowds of people looking for it.Like them, most people look for locals as guides, and the locals gradually discover business opportunities.Compared with risking their lives to go to the depths of the southern wilderness, it is obviously more cost-effective to kill these visitors on the edge of the desert and then run away with money.The three brothers saw that others made a lot of money by this kind of money-making and killing tricks, and wanted to follow suit.No, Jiang Daoyang and Luo Chuan happened to catch up, but they didn't expect that this first business deal would be difficult to calculate.

After listening to the three of them, Luo Chuan didn't care anymore, packed his things and left with Jiang Daoyang.

The two rode on camels and continued walking in the desert.Every footprint is covered with sand again, leaving no trace, and no one knows where they went.

Walking towards the depths of the desert, there are more and more sand dunes.

From time to time, Jiang Daoyang took out the map given by the old man in the ghost market. The more he looked at it, the more strange it became, and it didn't match the terrain here at all.

"No, it's completely different." Jiang Daoyang handed the map to Luo Chuan, "On the map, there are no sand dunes deep in the desert."

Luo Chuan glanced at the map and seemed to think of something, "The map is correct, the dunes here are moving."

"how do you know?"

"look up."

Jiang Daoyang raised his head obediently, and saw——

A higher dune ahead was moving towards them, very fast, as if something was wriggling under the dune.At this point, the two had nowhere to escape.

"It looks like I'm going to die here today." Jiang Daoyang said with a wry smile.

The sand dunes were getting closer, and they were standing on a sand dune in front of them. The sand dune in front of them was better than the one they were standing on in terms of height and volume.The power of nature is so great that it cannot be compared with human beings.

The sand dunes had reached the front, and the yellow sand rushed in, and the two of them and the two camels were buried under it.In an instant, the nose and ears were filled with sand, and a sense of suffocation and fear swept over.Luo Chuan thought he was about to die, but felt his body sinking rapidly, and a mouthful of water suddenly poured into his nose.

—Water—Where did the water come from?

He tentatively opened his eyes and found himself in the water.And when you look up, there is yellow sand, the thickness of which reaches seven or eight meters, and it just covers the water.It turns out that it is the water under the sand dunes that wriggles, so how does the water maintain such a shape?

Everything is different from Luo Chuan's usual cognition. This desert seems to have magical power.

After opening his eyes for a long time, they were already a little bit astringent. Luo Chuan looked around, but he couldn't find Jiang Daoyang.

Until Luo Chuan couldn't hold his breath and choked on a few mouthfuls of water.The sand dunes were over, and Luo Chuan saw the sky outside again.

He lay on the ground breathing heavily, stood up, and saw Jiang Daoyang not far away.

He ran to Jiang Daoyang, grabbed his wrist, and felt for his pulse. There was nothing serious.It should be too much choking water.

When sinking into the sand, Luo Chuan instinctively held his breath, which was his instinct to face a crisis.But Jiang Daoyang didn't, so he started choking on water as soon as he fell in.

Luo Chuan pressed Jiang Daoyang's abdomen with his right hand, concentrating his internal energy in his palm.After a while, Jiang Daoyang began to cough and slowly woke up.

"You're here too!" Jiang Daoyang smiled, "I thought I couldn't see you on Huangquan Road?"

"Fool, get up."

Luo Chuan stood up and kicked him lightly.

He put Master Luo's hand and stood up.

The yellow sand remains the same, and the surrounding scenery has not changed much.The camel didn't know where it was swept by the sand dunes.Luo Chuan had no choice but to lead Jiang Daoyang, and the two of them walked on the barren desert.

The two figures were as small as smoke and dust.

The southern desert is hotter and drier than the northern one.The bags of the two were also wrapped up by the sand dunes. At this time, their sleeves were relaxed and their bodies were clean.

go!go!

Going deep into the desert by feeling, the sun followed their steps and set westward.

The author has something to say:

Go, go, go!

When will we reach the city that never sleeps!
