The old woman glanced at Yun Lei and blurted out: "It's not you monsters who caused this..." At this point, she suddenly realized that she had lost her words, so she hurriedly covered her mouth and closed the door with a bang.
Yun Lei was scolded by her so much that Monk Zhang Er was confused. She wanted to ask again, but the old woman never opened the door again. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. When she was about to walk away, she suddenly heard a voice from behind asking: "Are you from the Immortal Cultivation Sect?"
This voice came out of the blue, and with Yun Lei's skill, she didn't even notice when this person came behind her!
She was startled and turned around in a hurry, only to see a man standing behind her.[
She wore a Taoist bun, wore a Taoist robe that was so dirty that it was hard to tell what color it was, and carried a colorful ancient sword on her back.
A full beard covered most of his face, and his eyes were bright as he looked Yun Lei up and down.
Yun Lei saw that he was dressed as a swordsman, and he seemed to be a first-class swordsman. He nodded and said, "Yes, I am from the Immortal Cultivating Sect, affiliated with Mount Emei. Who is your fellow Taoist?"
The man sighed and said: "It turns out that you are a disciple of Master Jingxin. I'm disrespectful. I am a poor Taoist and my master is the Red Pot Immortal..."
Yun Lei opened her eyes wide and said happily: "Ah, you are the disciple of Honghu Immortal. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Why are you here? Do you know what's going on with the drought here? That old lady just said a bowl of water
It’s worth a bowl of gold. If the conditions are so difficult, why don’t the people here escape?”
Yun Lei really had too many questions in her heart, and she couldn't help but ask them all in one breath.
Taoist priest Xingchi gave a bitter smile and said, "This is not the place to talk. Let's go and talk outside the city."
She led the way first and walked out of the city. Yun Lei felt puzzled and hurriedly followed.
The two came to the outside of the city and walked forward for about three miles.
The road ahead suddenly disappeared and turned into a vast expanse of yellow sand.
Yun Lei couldn't help but said in shock: "Is this place close to the desert?"
Taoist priest Xingchi didn't answer, but suddenly bent down and grabbed a handful of sand. The sand suddenly seemed to be alive, spinning in Xingchi's palm and making a squeaking sound.
In an instant, it slipped between Xingchi's fingers and fell into the sand. The yellow sand on the ground suddenly boiled, tumbling and spinning, and a strange squeaking sound resounded throughout the world.
After a long while, the sound finally stopped. The yellow sand underground also returned to a dead silence.
Yun Lei was dumbfounded and said: "What...what is going on?"
Xingchi sighed and said: "All the ways out of this city are like this kind of quicksand that eats people! No one can get through, which is why people here don't flee."
