The cold moonlight shone on the desert, and there was silence all around. A few bones were exposed in the sand not far away. Ruan Ying hugged her cousin's arm tightly, "Cousin, where is this? I'm so scared." "Me neither."
I know too well, it seems to be a secret realm, it shouldn’t be an illusion, my Hua Hao Yue Yue didn’t react to it.”
"Ayue, do you have a way to get out?" Duan Yitang on the other side also hugged her arm tightly.
"I haven't thought of a way yet, but there seems to be something over there. Let's go and have a look. You two can let go of me. We can't walk fast like this."
Both of these people were taller than her, and they both stood up by her. They calmed down for a while, and finally put Tang Yue down.
Ruan Ying released her spiritual beast, which was a cute little white snake. Touching the white snake can dispel some gloomy thoughts.
Duan Yitang hadn't found the spirit beast he wanted yet, and now he looked a little envious. Tang Yue thought for a while, took out the doll from the spirit beast bag, and held it for Duan Yitang. She finally felt better.
Now everyone can go to that building. The lovely thing has a strange comforting energy.
She was more worried that her mother, Mu Chongyun, Liu Hao, grandpa and adoptive father were highly skilled in cultivation and might not be involved.
There were no reference objects in the desert, so it was difficult to judge the distance. The buildings looked close, but were actually far away. They walked for a long time before they arrived nearby. Ruan Ying and Duan Yitang were a little desperate during the journey, wondering whether they would never get there.
Tang Yue has been comforting them. After her transformation, her Huahaoyueyue jade tablet has the ability to recognize illusions. Now there are no prompts, indicating that the village exists normally.
So the two girls gained confidence and walked over there with her.
When she finally arrived, she looked at her timer. It was only two hours, not that long. It seemed that the desert had distorted people's sense of time.
This is an abandoned village. The door sign at the entrance of the village is engraved with the three characters of Guyue Village. It is dark red and crooked, making people think of blood.
The two girls moved closer to Tang Yue. They were so scared. It would be okay if it was a bloody scene. Ruan Ying was not so scared last time in the secret realm of Flowing Fire.
But first they were swallowed up by the terrifying black cloud, and then they arrived in such a gloomy place. They always felt that something profound and terrifying would appear in the next moment.
"This place must have been abandoned for a long time. Look at the houses. Some of them are half buried in the soil. But we can go in and see if there are any clues. We can also take shelter from the wind and take a rest."
Just when they reached the last section, a strong wind suddenly blew in the desert, and it became stronger and stronger, threatening to turn into a storm.
There are some small buildings here, the tallest one has three floors, and the top floor will not be buried.
As they walked along the path in the village, the broken walls on both sides cast strange shadows. In some yards, there were swaying tables and chairs and broken vases.
They passed a corner and something suddenly appeared in front of them, and Ruan Ying shouted "Ah".
"Ruan Ying, what are you yelling at?"
The three women took a closer look and saw that it was a young man with extraordinary clothing. Neither Ruan Ying nor Tang Yue recognized him.
"Murong Hai? You came to the banquet too? Why haven't I seen you working as Tu Yangxing's follower?" Ruan Ying's voice was full of curiosity.
"What are you talking about? Who is the follower? I have something to do, so I won't go messing around with you."
"I understand. The female disciples who work in the Shui family, especially the ones who collect nectar, are very good-looking. You went to find them."
Murong Hai was surprised, "How did you know? Are you hiding aside?"
Ruan Ying paused and said, "Who wants to see you teasing the servant disciple? Who doesn't know your virtue?"
"No, you have led me astray. These things are not important. We need to find out what is going on in this place and get out in time."
As he spoke, he saluted Tang Yue and Duan Yitang, "I am Murong Hai, the youngest son of the head of the Murong family. I am lucky enough to meet the three of them in this inexplicable place today. It is also fate. I hope we can work together to get out."
Tang Yue and Duan Yitang nodded. They didn't realize that this was an irregular person for the time being.
Suddenly, a woman shouted softly from the side, her voice was melodious and sweet. Murong Hai immediately turned around, "Is a fellow Taoist injured?"
He hurried towards the direction where the sound came from, leaving the three women behind.
Ruan Ying concluded, "Fortunately, the three of us are not over 16 years old." The other two people nodded in agreement.
They went to see what was going on and saw a snake on the ground with its head cut off. A woman of seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing light green clothes, was standing in a yard surrounded by a fence.
Half of the fence was buried in yellow, and they could see the face of the lover from outside. She was indeed naturally beautiful, with a graceful figure and a sweet voice.
"Girl, I have already killed this snake, so there is no need to be afraid."
The girl smiled at Murong Hai and said, "Thank you, Master."
"My wife, Murong Hai, can you tell me your name?"
"My name is Chi He. The Chi family is a small family attached to Wuji Mountain. I believe fellow Taoist Murong will not know."
"No, from today on, I know because of Fellow Daoist Chi that the Chi family must be extraordinary to be able to raise a person like Fellow Daoist Chi."
The woman covered her mouth and smiled, "Our family is very weak."
She turned to Tang Yue and the others, "Who are these three little Taoist friends?"
They exchanged names with this woman, and Tang Yue kept her heart. She didn't know if the Shui family really had the family name Chi.
Moreover, this person's appearance was strange. They didn't find any creatures along the way, but she was actually attacked by a snake.
Murong Hai suggested: "The wind and sand are getting bigger and bigger. Let's go to the tallest building. It has never been blown down or buried in the desert. I think it can withstand the storm this time."
"Even if we are covered, we still have space to use the breath-holding technique without being buried immediately and unable to move."
Tang Yue thought what he said made sense, "Then let's go there."
Ruan Ying and Duan Yitang are now led by Tang Yue's opinions, so naturally they will not object.
The puppet lay in Duan Yitang's arms and yawned. Chi He thought this cat was really beautiful. He had never seen it before, "Can you hold this cat for a while? It's so cute."
Tang Yue refused. She still couldn't believe this Chi He. "Sister Duan was a little scared, so I held it for her. I'll let her hold her when it's safer."
Chi He smiled and said, "Okay."
They went to that building, which was probably the village chief's home in the center of the deserted village. When they walked to the door, there was a faint light of fire inside, and a smell of meat wafted out.
They were immediately on guard. When they went in and took a look, Murong Hai recognized this person, "Senior Brother Qian, were you also swept in by that black cloud?"
"I came to the house to deliver congratulatory gifts on behalf of Master, but I didn't expect to be involved."
It turned out that he was the third disciple of Sect Master Xu, Qian Wangduo. The Sect Master took his first two disciples out to hunt down the Flame Demon Clan for revenge, so he was unable to come to the Shui family to celebrate his birthday, so he specially sent his three disciples to send congratulatory gifts.
"Now I feel at ease. Senior Brother Qian has already established the eighth level of foundation. If there is any threat, you can resist it with me and protect you."
He did not count the four women as combat power. Chi He was only at the eighth level of Qi refining, and they had not reached the foundation building stage.
"Everyone, come and try my roasted venison. I hunted it in the mountains and forests. I originally planned to go back to the sect to roast it and eat it, but now it's just right."
Of course Tang Yue and the others would not refuse. Three hours had passed and they had walked here again from the desert. The three of them were all a little hungry.
So the six of them sat around the fire and watched Senior Brother Qian grilling meat. Tang Yue took out a teapot, teacup, and a can of Linglu to make tea.
Senior Brother Qian praised, "Junior Sister Tang is really a leisurely person. Most people would not think of bringing a teapot when they go out."
Tang Yue looked at the high-end spices in his hand and said, "Senior Brother Qian, I'm so impressed. You are an elegant person. The spices in your hands are quite good. They must have been mixed with more than eighteen kinds of spices."
"That's right. I didn't expect Junior Sister Tang to know this. She can tell it just by hearing it."
Next, he discussed his spices with Tang Yue and asked her to taste them and guess what they were. The discussion between the two was in full swing.
Murong Hai thought these two people were really boring. How could anyone taste twenty kinds of condiments?
He looked at Chi He, who was like a fresh hibiscus, discussing Wuji Mountain's fashion service with Ruan Ying and Duan Yitang, and occasionally smiled, which made people feel fascinated.
This is the woman that makes people admire her. Although he doesn't quite understand the thirteen different moiré patterns she talks about, everything Renmei says is good.
After a while, the wind and sand outside became stronger and stronger, and kept blowing open the doors and windows they had blocked with things. After Brother Qian flew out of several houses, the doors and windows were no longer blown open.
The whole building was shaking a little, and everyone was worried about whether the building would collapse. Senior Brother Qian said: "Don't worry, I have seen the structure of this building. It is very clever and can withstand the wind and sand. Now the shaking can relieve the wind.
It won’t collapse.”
Tang Yue thought that many high-rise buildings in modern society have the same principle. Suddenly, there was a rapid knock on the door, as if someone was outside.
What followed was a shrill cry, "Help, open the door quickly."
