Mountains and rivers are waiting for you to return

Chapter 233 Red and Yellow Quicksand and Oasis

how come?
Pei Nai's eyes widened. She pulled Gu Jinheng over, called Han Ruize, Da Xian, Ju Liancheng, Luo Yuanying and others, and quickly rushed to the end of the block.

I saw that the tall stone walls around were completely closed, with no gaps at all.

In the center of the end, which was the exit originally marked on the map, there was only a huge, bright crimson flower.

The reason why Gu Jinheng identified it as a carnivorous plant is that when it occasionally opens its flower mouth to breathe, the inner wall of the flower tube is covered with sharp teeth.

Luo Yuanying took out the map, and its content was consistent with what Ju Liancheng described.

There was no extra explanation on the map, only the exit location was marked normally.

Everyone was at a loss, and the soldiers helped to look for other ways out, but they confirmed that except for the entrance they had just come in, there was no other passage connecting to the outside world.

Gu Jinheng asked everyone to touch the stone wall again, but they did not find the invisible melted stone wall passage.

Everyone was confused, and Pei Nai could only give the order for the whole team to rest here for a while.

Pei Nai and the others gathered together, Gu Jinheng, Han Ruize, Da Xian, Qu Baiyi, Ju Liancheng, Huyan Weizhao, Luo Yuanying, Lin Shengtao and Du Ling surrounded Pei Nai in the middle.

Because the others didn't understand sign language, they used a brush dipped in water to write down their guesses on the ground.

"Is there an error in the map?" Huyan Weizhao asked in writing.

Luo Yuanying also wrote: "It is possible. The murals are very old and the lines are very fine. If the wall surface is eroded and damaged, it is easy to make mistakes when repainting."

No one would doubt Ju Liancheng's memory, so they wouldn't have taken the wrong path.

When Senior Qu and his party arrived at Linshangshui Waterfall before, they took another route, so he couldn't offer any suggestions and could only help everyone analyze the situation.

"Or, there was an exit, but it was blocked by the growth of the carnivorous plant." Da Xian suddenly deduced.

Gu Jinheng nodded, agreeing with this, and wrote: "The Secret Realm Saints are on the same route as us. If my guess is correct, we may be able to enter through their mouth, and there must be a hole when they land."

Everyone agrees that this is the most realistic speculation at the moment.

Gu Jinheng immediately stood up, and everyone stood up together.

He used sign language to tell Pei Nai, "I'll go in first. If I sense any danger, I'll use my divine energy to notify you."

"Then how are we going to save you?" Pei Nai frowned, his eyes full of worry.

Han Ruize strode over, patted Gu Jinheng, and pointed to the new words he had written on the ground: "Protect Pei Nai!"

Pei Nai, Gu Jinheng and others looked at the water words on the ground and hadn't reacted yet.

Han Ruize's body had already crossed with Gu Jinheng's. He walked forward first and came near the carnivorous plant.

Pei Nai couldn't even stop him because the sound couldn't be transmitted.

Han Ruize turned around, raised his whip, and raised his eyebrows at Pei Nai. This action meant that if something unexpected happened, he would fight back and let them watch carefully.

Then Han Ruize turned back and jumped in using his light skills when the Piranha Plant opened its mouth for the next time.

Everyone has arrived in front of the Piranha Plant.

Pei Nai was worried, holding the Zhubei Gun tightly in his hand, and staring at the movements of the carnivorous plant carefully.

Gu Jinheng was right beside her. Seeing her expression, his gaze stayed on her hand holding the gun. His eyes were indifferent and he said nothing else.

The giant flower's mouth closed regularly, and everyone could only wait.

After a while, the stem of the Piranha Plant trembled, and it opened its mouth again.

Pei Nai looked at Gu Jinheng in confusion.

He used sign language to say, "I can no longer sense his presence at the near end."

Then Han Ruize might have already reached the next block. After all, the reaction of the Piranha Plant did not seem like it had suffered serious internal damage.

Pei Nai nodded at Gu Jinheng.

All the soldiers stopped resting and stood up when Han Ruize jumped into the huge mouth of the carnivorous plant.

Pei Nai made a command gesture to everyone, indicating that the whole team should prepare to set off and follow in order.

After giving the order, Gu Jinheng jumped into the food mouth, stood in the gap between the fangs, and stretched out his right hand to Pei Nai.

Pei Nai jumped up and held him with his left hand that was not holding the spear.

The two of them walked in together.

It was wide at first, but after a few steps, the giant flower's esophagus began to narrow, but fortunately, the inner wall no longer had sharp teeth, but was clean and smooth.

Gu Jinheng entered the narrow opening first and slid down, followed closely by Pei Nai.

The flower body moved all the way down. They moved forward smoothly and slid faster and faster, but there was almost no air inside, so everyone had to hold their breath the whole time.

Until a bright opening appeared below Gu Jinheng, which was the obvious way out.

He fell out of the flower path, landed smoothly, and turned around to pick up Pei Nai.

Pei Nai also threw herself into his arms and was put on the ground by him. The two of them walked to the side together to make room for the people behind.

"We've arrived at the eighth circle." Han Ruize's deep and gentle voice sounded beside him.

When everyone left the seventh circle, the sound returned to their lives again. This feeling made them feel at ease and nostalgic.

The fresh air enters through the nasal cavity, bringing with it the warmth of the midday sun, dispelling the suffocating silence.

Everyone's bodies were finally freed from the oppression that had been attached to them for so long.

The eighth circle is the area where the Linshang Waterfall is located. The rules for avoiding danger are: Do not eat any plants here, do not drink the water here! The geology is loose, so pay attention to the movement of sand!
The 123rd block in front of us is an open desert surrounded by mountain walls, covering a huge area.

Pei Nai turned around and was stunned by the magnificent and strange scene before him.

The yellow gravel mixed with large areas of red quicksand is gorgeous and makes the place hazy and dreamy.

There is an oasis at the far end, where the grass is lush and green and the trees are growing wildly.

The exit of this area is deep in the oasis.

"Nail." Gu Jinheng pulled Pei Nai back a step to the left. Pei Nai then followed his gaze and saw the swirling sand not far away.

First, several deformed hands poked out from the red and yellow sand, and then an eye as big as two eyes slowly stretched out from under the sand.

It turned out to be a one-eyed vine with a circle of strange and deformed claws around its eyeball.

When it noticed Pei Nai and the others and was about to attack, Han Ruize whipped them at the same time.

Gang Zheng's whip was so powerful that it hit the monster's eyes, causing half of its body to cave in and shatter instantly. The monster twitched heavily and fell to the ground.

There seemed to be a force under the sand that pulled at its vine and dragged its body into the ground.

"So that's why the hedging rule says to be careful of moving sand?" Pei Nai said in astonishment.

Han Ruize put away the whip and nodded, "Well, watch your step, they might attack you by surprise."

While waiting for the team members to arrive, several more one-eyed vines emerged from the flowing sand and were dealt with by the soldiers.

"I can finally speak without having to gesture anymore." After landing, Ju Liancheng said while observing the surrounding environment.

Pei Nai asked him, "Is there a safe route in this area?"

Ju Liancheng shook his head and recalled: "There is only a straight line drawn here on the map, directly connected to the exit of the oasis."

"Then we have to fight all the way there." Pei Nai frowned.

Daxian stepped on a flat piece of gravel on the ground at a very sharp angle, causing it to jump up. He reached out to take it, then casually threw it towards the red and yellow sand in the distance.

The noise of the stone falling to the ground caused the sand to react, and two new whirlpools formed nearby, from which two one-eyed vines immediately emerged.

Pei Nai and Hu Yanweizhao each dealt with one.

Daxian's test confirmed their speculation that if the sound on the sand was too loud, it would attract the monsters underground.

When the soldiers arrived, Pei Nai gave the order to set off.

Hundreds of strong men acted at the same time. Even if they moved slowly, the combined sound could not be suppressed.

The monsters in the sand seemed to be stimulated and appeared more and more frequently.

Everyone fought and advanced with difficulty.

With more and more battles, accidents are inevitable. Three or four soldiers were burned by the uniform light water sprayed by the one-eyed vine.

Although Gu Jinheng stopped their mutation in time, all the rotten flesh that came into contact with the uniform light water had to be cut off to prevent the poison from spreading inward.

Pei Nai was annoyed by these endless monsters.

There is still a long way to go in the desert. If we continue like this, many soldiers will be injured.

She called out to Han Ruize who was fighting.

But she didn't know how to describe her plan, she spoke too slowly.

She said first: "You——"

Then stretch out your hands like a kitchen knife, aim them at the road ahead, and chop several times in different directions.

Then he said: "I——"

Then he slashed horizontally in front of him.

Amid the chaos, Han Ruize actually laughed out loud.

It was a little silly, but also very direct. He understood it and nodded.

The whips kept hitting the surface of the red and yellow desert soil, causing the earth to shake.

Dust was raised and sand and gravel flew everywhere.

The one-eyed vines beneath the entire desert began to riot, and countless quicksands formed.

Monsters appeared one after another, densely packed and ferocious.

Pei Nai swung the gun sideways and downward.

Da Xi'an kindly reminded everyone in the team, "I suggest that everyone squat for a while."

Han Ruize and Da Xian took the lead and squatted down, and the people behind them also reacted and realized that Pei Nai was about to take action.

The entire team lowered their bodies collectively like a wave to make room for Pei Nai.

Even Gu Jinheng stepped back and squatted, looking up at her not far away.

Although Pei Nai can control the direction of the gun's sweep, the cooperation of her teammates does make things much more convenient for her.

She can spin around on the spot without any worries.

The faster the spear went, the less visible its shadow could be heard. Only the whistling sound of the spear tip cutting through the air could be heard, like thunder exploding in the clouds.

The last circle was released, and the arc of the gun was like the roar of the angry sea, scraping all obstacles along the way.

The 148th move of Pei family spear, the threshold of chasing waves!

This allowed her to unleash a power never before seen in the history of this move.

In that instant, hundreds and thousands of one-eyed vines fell down at the same time and were all chopped to death.

Only those who have personally faced the monsters in the secret realm know how tough the bodies of the creatures inside these meteorites are.

The vast white arc was faintly golden as it crashed into the surrounding mountain walls, causing the rocks to collapse.

After the huge bang, the world was dead silent.

Senior Qu Baiyi's words were the first to ring out. He murmured, more like talking to himself, but also like sighing, "If there is anyone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Yue Cang, it's only her."

Pei Nai turned around and looked at everyone. It was rare that he didn't want to praise himself. "Run, what are you waiting for? Wait for them to come again later?"
