It turned out that Jiang Yao had stepped on a skull before. The skull was hidden in the sand, and Jiang Yao slipped on it.
This was on a very steep cliff. As soon as the slip occurred, Jiang Yao's body suddenly rolled down. Because the cliff was too steep, he almost fell.
Jiang Yao's body was like a rolling log, rolling down rapidly. His vision was spinning rapidly, getting faster and faster, and he couldn't stop at all.
However, he always held the pistol tightly in his hand. Ah Jiu in his sleeve was also tightly wrapped around his wrist.
The water bag on his body flew out and fell straight down.
"Bitter!" Jiang Yao saw the water bag falling and screamed inwardly that something was wrong.
However, during this rapid fall, as the field of vision rotated at a high speed of 360 degrees, a strange spectacle appeared in Jiang Yao's field of vision...
Whenever his face turned upward and his field of vision turned to the sky, he would see a huge river suspended in the sky.
This huge river is suspended high in the sky, like the Milky Way, flowing silently, as if it is flying down for nine days.
The Milky Way was so vast that Jiang Yao's entire mind was filled with water vapor.
"Bang -" Jiang Yao finally rolled down from the cliff more than a hundred feet high, rolled like a log on the flat sand for another ten feet, and then stopped still.
And when it was rotating at high speed, the high-altitude Milky Way that appeared in the field of vision also strangely disappeared.
As soon as Jiang Yao's eyes turned dark, he fainted.
He is a strong body refiner and has a strong physical body. Of course, he will not fall to death, but this high-speed rotation also caused him to fall into a brief faint.
"Ahem..." After fainting for just a few breaths, Jiang Yao woke up. When he coughed, his mouth and nose were full of sand, the world was spinning, and his eyesight turned black.
What happened to that huge Milky Way in the sky just now? Why is it missing now?
He was sure that it was not an illusion.
Soon, Qin Yu also climbed down using his hands and feet. Jiang Yao immediately closed his eyes and pretended to be unconscious.
"Water..." Qin Yu didn't look at the ginger medicine as soon as he reached the ground. Instead, he stumbled towards the place where the water bag fell.
When Qin Yu rushed over to pick up the water bag, he was stunned.
The stopper of the water bladder has long since fallen off.
Qin Yu held the water bag in his hands and shook it, his eyelids twitching fiercely.
The water has almost drained out, leaving only the last bit. Two people can last up to five days, and one person can last ten days.
Qin Yu picked up the water bag and then walked towards Jiang Yao not far away.
Jiang Yao lay there quietly, seemingly fainted.
Qin Yu glanced at Jiang Yao's hand, his expression uncertain.
"Brother Zhongda, brother Zhongda." Qin Yu called softly. Jiang Yao did not respond.
Qin Yu looked at the tall and steep cliff and calculated the consequences of the ginger medicine rolling down.
Well, it's about 150 feet high. It's so steep. If I fell down, I would definitely not die, but I would definitely faint.
As for the duration of fainting, it should not exceed half a stick of incense.
So, Jiang Yao must have really fainted. But, he will wake up soon.
Qin Yu's hand slowly touched the sword at his waist. This sword was obtained from the corpse of the general in the wreckage of the spacecraft. It was a high-level sword.
Qin Yu quietly drew out the sword. He held the hilt of the sword with his slender hands, his knuckles turned white when pinched, but finally he did not move, but quietly put away the sword.
"Zhongda, Zhongda!" Qin Yu squatted down and shook the ginger medicine, "Wake up!"
Jiang Yao opened her eyes, seemed stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, "Oh, Brother Qin..."
Qin Yu smiled bitterly and said: "Are you okay? How does it feel to roll down? I can tell you that there is only a little water left, and we will probably die of thirst."
"Water?" Jiang Yao pointed to the sky, "There is a lot of water in the sky. There is a Milky Way with white waves billowing into the sky. Didn't Brother Qin see it?"
What?
Qin Yu looked up at the sky, and then looked down at Jiang Yao. He thought Jiang Yao had fallen unconscious, but when he saw Jiang Yao still clutching the weird pistol, he knew that Jiang Yao was very conscious.
"No." Qin Yu shook his head with a strange expression.
Jiang Yao asked: "Did Brother Qin roll down or climb down?"
Qin Yu: "..."
Jiang Yao suddenly said: "I understand, Brother Qin climbed down, so he didn't see it."
Qin Yu finally couldn't help but asked: "Zhongda, are you okay?"
Jiang Yao sat up and said, "I'm fine, what can happen? I tell you, there is a Milky Way in the sky, full of water and vapor. But it can only be seen when it is spinning at high speed."
Qin Yu frowned: "You can only see it if you roll down? Zhongda, don't make such a joke."
Jiang Yao looked serious: "Am I joking? Of course, if you don't believe it, just pretend I didn't say it. If you want to see it, you can climb up again and roll down again."
"Ahem!" Qin Yu coughed and touched his forehead, "I believe you, there is indeed a Tianhe high up in the sky, with lots and lots of water. But the problem is -"
"No matter how much water there is in the Tianhe River, we can't get even a drop of water without cultivation power."
Jiang Yao said solemnly: "Why is there not a drop of water or an oasis in this endless desert?"
"No matter how confusing the rules are, it's still among the Five Elements. It's impossible for such a huge desert to have no water at all, right? Where's the water?"
Qin Yu thought for a while, "You mean, the water in Wujian Desert actually did not disappear, but ran into the void?"
"Under some powerful mutated law, all the water in the desert flows up into the void?"
Jiang Yao nodded: "Yes, that's what I guessed. This powerful mutated Tao is actually a kind of poison, the poison of rules. And the Wujian Desert is the area with the deepest poison."
"Water is good for the bottom. But under the poisoned Tao, the water in the Infernal Desert has become water good for the top, and the downward flow has become the upward flow. Water is the source of life, and the Infinite Desert has no water, so it becomes like this.
bad."
Qin Yu had to admire Jiang Yao's imagination. He mused and said, "Your guess is very bold, but not ridiculous. We cannot rule out the possibility that it is true."
"Before, I thought you were joking, but now, I believe what you said is true. I want to see that Milky Way with my own eyes!"
After Qin Yu finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the cliff where he had just come down.
The ginger medicine didn't stop him.
Qin Yu pulled out his sword and climbed up again along the route he climbed down.
The slope here is slightly gentle, and with the monk's strong body and agility, Qin Yu's climb was not too difficult.
But it still took him half an hour to climb up.
Then, he really rolled down.
"Heaven - River!" Qin Yu, who was rolling, couldn't help shouting, "I saw it!"
The man who saw Tianhe rolled down and fainted immediately.
Ginger medicine immediately shook him awake.
Qin Yu opened his eyes, shook his head and said:
"It is indeed a huge Milky Way, and it is definitely not an illusion. I guess that as we scrolled down, we interacted with some kind of rules, resulting in a special spatial perspective, and we saw the Milky Way in the void."
"My guess is similar to yours. The water in the void sky river may be the water of this river. This river has not really dried up, but its water has flowed into the sky."
There was a look of horror in his eyes, "What kind of poison can poison the rules and create an endless desert? If the poison is eliminated, will the water in the void return to the desert?"
Jiang Yao's words successfully aroused his interest.
Because there was only the last bit of water left, both of them became anxious.
They searched the riverbed, but only saw some monks' bones buried in the sand, but not a trace of water.
Finally, we came to the cliff on the other side, but this side was even steeper, almost straight up, and it was not a sandy slope, but a rocky cliff.
It can be seen that the cliff here is a cliff that existed in ancient times. Because it is a straight and tall stone wall, it has not been changed by the sand. The cliff we just came here is not an ancient cliff.
"What should I do?" Qin Yu raised his head and looked at the high stone wall. The stone wall was as smooth as a mirror and as hard as iron. There was no possibility of climbing.
"We can only search along the stone wall to find a place to climb." Jiang Yao could only come up with a stupid solution.
He looked both ways and pointed to the left, "That direction is the inner bend of the river bend. The impact of water force is the smallest and the slope is definitely the gentlest."
Qin Yu nodded and said, "Yes, let's go in that direction."
"Looking for water in this place is a waste of time. Our biggest chance of survival now is to find Yu Kuan. Kuan Lazi definitely came prepared, and she must have brought a lot of water."
The two of them meandered to the left. Fortunately, they had ice jade on them, which protected them from the intense heat. Otherwise, they would have died of thirst before they could get out of the valley.
Sure enough, after walking for more than ten miles to the left, I came to a river bend and saw that the slope here was much gentler.
What surprised the two even more was that a shallow step was dug out at the place with the gentlest slope.
Of course, these steps are difficult to walk, but they are much better than no steps at all. At least you can climb up.
Qin Yu stepped forward to take a look, touched a shallow step, and said: "This is carved with the Yanxin iron knife, which is the easiest to cut rocks. Even if you don't have any cultivation, you can use that kind of knife easily.
Chise out the steps.”
"This is definitely Yan Lazi's handiwork. She knows the inside story, and only she can be so fully prepared."
"It's her." Jiang Yao also nodded, "The steps on the left are deeply carved, while the steps on the right are carved shallowly. This shows that the person digging needs to use more strength with his left hand."
"Yu Kuan's left leg was pinched by the zombie, and his left foot lacked strength, so he needed to use his left hand to climb hard, and the steps on the left were carved deeply."
Just one detail shows how meticulous Yu Yan's thoughts are. It is simply impeccable. He will never put an extra effort into it and he will think twice before acting.
Qin Yu came up and took a closer look for a while, "This is a trace from a few months ago. Yan Lazi has been here a few months ago, hasn't she left Wujian Desert yet?"
Jiang Yao was already climbing. Qin Yu quickly followed.
With the steps dug by Yu Kuan using the Yanxin iron knife, the two of them climbed up in less than half an hour.
"Hahaha!" The two climbed up and couldn't help laughing.
But coincidentally, when they saw the empty water bag, their heartless laughter suddenly stopped.
Within five days, if they cannot leave the forbidden land or cannot find water, they will die of thirst.
The two stopped talking, because saying another word would be a waste of energy.
One day later, the temperature got higher and higher, almost like entering a furnace. Jiang Yao estimated that the temperature was already over 100 degrees.
Slowly, a monstrous fire appeared in the north.
Although you can't see it yet, it must be the Wujian volcano.
Wujian Volcano is the only way for the two of them to go north.
Another day later, the heat in the desert was even more terrible. The two of them were thirsty and their hair was disheveled. They held on to the ice jade and continued on their way.
On this day, the two of them consumed the last bit of water.
On the third day, a huge volcano appeared in sight.
The entire north seemed to be covered by volcanoes, and the red flames were like overwhelming celestial fire, filling the space between heaven and earth.
It was as if the sun had fallen in the desert.
No wonder the depths of the Wujian Desert are so hot. How can such a huge volcano not be hot?
"This volcano is probably nearly ten thousand miles big." Qin Yu smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect that Wujian Volcano is so big. How can we go around it? We have no strength to go around it."
At this time, the two of them were still thousands of miles away from Wujian Desert, but they could see the volcano, which showed how big it was.
Jiang Yao was also speechless.
Qin Yu's condition is worse than his own. He can walk for two days at most, and he can walk for four or five days at most. There is no way to bypass Wujian Volcano.
"Right now, all we can do is put it to death and survive. We can't go around it, and we can't go around it. We can only hope that under the fire domain of the Wujian volcano, the rules and regulations can be loosened a little, and a little bit of cultivation can be restored."
He had always guessed that when Yu Kuan sent him the flight information before, he was most likely at Wujian Volcano.
Because only Wujian Volcano can use the huge fire domain to loosen the rules of the Forbidden Land, giving her the possibility to recover some mana.
Otherwise, how could she send a flying message to herself in a forbidden land?
"That's right." Qin Yu leaned on his sword, "It is said that there is no perfect path for man, there must be a glimmer of life in the dead place, and there must be a door to life in the dead place. This is the way of heaven and earth."
"Yu Kuan has obviously been to the Wujian Volcano. We should go directly there, maybe we can really find some hope."
The two of them no longer hesitated at that moment, but like moths flying towards a flame, they headed towards the huge volcano that stretched between heaven and earth.
It’s like facing the light!
The closer you get to the volcano, the more extreme the temperature becomes. Jiang Yao estimates that it has exceeded 200 degrees.
At sunset on the fifth day, the weather became even hotter. Qin Yu suddenly felt weak and finally couldn't hold on anymore and fell down.
At this moment, he was already skin and bones, and it seemed that all the energy and blood in his body had been evaporated.
"It won't work, it really won't work. This is the burial place of Qin Yu after all." His lips were all chapped, and his face was filled with a look of death.
As long as there is water, or if the restraint is loosened and a little bit of cultivation is restored, he can stand up, but he doesn't.
Jiang Yao is also approaching his limit, but his condition is still much better than Qin Yu's.
Qin Yu took off his ring and handed it to Jiang Yao: "Brother Zhongda, there are many things in this ring. I will give it to you. The power I have worked so hard to manage will also be loyal to you."
"I only have one request." Qin Yu looked at the large volcano not far away with dull eyes.
"Say." Jiang Yao didn't say any words of encouragement, so there was nothing he could do.
How many days can he hold on without water? He can't help Qin Yu.
"If Brother Zhongda can go back alive, I hope he can help my family once. There is their communication board in the ring."
Jiang Yao took Qin Yu's ring, nodded and said: "If I can survive, I will definitely do it."
There was also a feeling of sadness in his heart.
In later generations, he was the one who buried the national master Qin Yu who died at the end of his life. Is he going to bury Qin Yu again this time?
Qin Yu seemed to have exhausted his last strength, and his raised head tilted.
The deathly aura on his face became stronger and stronger, and Jiang Yao knew that he was already dying.
In a quarter of an hour at most, Qin Yu will die. Like many monks who came here to hunt for treasure this time, he will die like a mortal in the depths of the desert.
After Qin Yu's death, how long can he hold on?
Before he died, he was with him, and he collected his body for burial.
But what about me? There is no one to even collect the body for burial.
Qin Yu showed a sad and bitter smile: "I'm sorry, if you can't get out, I won't be able to bury you. I'll go first."
Jiang Yao couldn't bear to look anymore. He turned his head and looked at the big volcano. As far as he could see, he seemed to see a flag.
The flag was very eye-catching. I hadn't seen it before, mainly because Qin Yu distracted him.
Jiang Yao suddenly stood up and rushed towards the small flag with all his strength.
He rushed out for more than ten miles in one breath, looked at the small flag with sweat all over his body, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly couldn't help laughing.
What kind of flag is this? This is simply a real dress. A woman’s real dress.
There are a few lines of elegant handwriting written on the clothes: "I keep telling you not to let someone come, but I don't know if someone will be obedient. If someone does come, he may be trapped to death, ugh."
"So, I buried some water here, just in case."
"If someone doesn't come here, don't take away all the water. Leave a pot at least."
"If someone comes, I will tell you that I will go to the Secret Palace of the Volcano to look for treasures to save you. I am very good. I will definitely find the treasures and go out to save you. You go north."
The signature is: "Cao'er."
Looking at these lines of words, Jiang Yao couldn't help but burst into tears and smiled.
No matter what others say about you, no matter whether you are good or bad, at least you are not lying to me, Jiang Yao.
I always believe in you.
Jiang Yao touched the lotus-colored real clothes, put them away in his baggage, and then dug them up on the ground.
Soon, three kettles were dug out. Each kettle contained two kilograms of water.
It seems that she must have really captured Huaji's Talisman Soul Storage Bag, otherwise how could she carry so many water bottles?
Huaji had the Talisman Soul Bag, so she must have prepared a lot of things. However, all of this was part of Yu Kuan's plan. All the materials in her Talisman Soul Bag were prepared for Yu Kuan.
Jiang Yao carried three water bottles on his back and ran back like crazy. He covered the distance of more than ten miles in half an hour.
"Brother Qin! We are saved, water, water!"
What? Water? Dreaming?
Qin Yu had closed his eyes. He vaguely heard someone talking about water. The voice was so ethereal that it seemed to come from the endless void.
In a daze, he felt an extreme coolness that he had longed for, as if he suddenly saw the vast misty lake.
He jumped into the lake, and the sweet lake water with the smell of water plants poured into his mouth.
So happy, so happy... He suddenly seemed to have endless power.
Jiang Yao supported Qin Yu and fed Qin Yu to drink water. Qin Yu drank a lot of water, half unconscious and half awake, and the lifeless look on his face quickly dissipated.
