My Seven Sisters Are Stunningly Beautiful (The Return of the Gods)
Chapter 2697 Don’t Let Go Without Persuasion
These sand monsters seem to have spirituality.
After Lu Yun destroyed a part of them, the rest immediately fled away as if they had seen a ghost.
However, there was not much joy on Lu Yun's face.
Pengdong and Long Tiantian fell from the sky.
They walked up to Lu Yun and their eyes rolled around his body.
But they had never seen confusion in Lu Yun's eyes.
Therefore, his eyes at this moment made both Pengdong and Long Tiantian inexplicably nervous.
"Brother Lu, what's going on?"
Lu Yun shook his head and said, "I can't see through these things."
He originally thought that these things should be some kind of life form, but when he stabbed the Nine Dragon Sword into their bodies just now, it was just a ball of sand, or some kind of condensed air.
That is to say, in a sense, they are not living beings at all.
So Lu Yun moved the Nine Dragon Sword in his hand and asked the Nine Dragon Sword: "Nine Dragon Sword Spirit, can you tell what those are?"
Similarly, the Nine Dragon Sword Spirit was also confused and said, "I don't know. When I stabbed into their bodies just now, I found that these things seemed to be dead."
"hehe!"
While they were talking, they suddenly heard a teasing laugh.
But Lu Yun was very familiar with this voice.
It was the old man whose skin was as white as tree bark.
Then Lu Yun turned his gaze in that direction. They were very far apart, but the old man was able to transmit his voice over a thousand miles, saying, "I just said it, but you didn't listen."
Peng Dong and Long Tiantian could also hear this voice, so after the old man finished speaking, they immediately helped Lu Yun and said, "Grandpa, it's not that we don't listen to you, my brother Lu is in a special situation now."
"Besides, is it feasible for us to leave now?"
The following sentence of Pengdong is just a question.
He felt that the people in the far north were all barbarians.
The other party may not agree with what he says.
Even if they choose to leave now, the other party may not agree.
Sure enough, just as Peng Dong finished speaking, the old man spoke up and simply replied, "No."
Pengdong had actually guessed the result, so there was no big change in his expression, he just shrugged.
Lu Yun said, "Old man, did you summon those things in the sand just now?"
After he asked, the old man shook his head: "No!"
He was only responsible for delivering the information of the first wave of evictions here.
As long as those who have not crossed the river leave in time, he won't care.
However, if someone disobeys and insists on coming over, then he will not be responsible for the rest of the task.
But he thought Lu Yun asked this question because he was afraid, so he sneered and said, "If you had known this, would you have come in?"
Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Lu Yun suddenly grinned and said, "No, you misunderstood. I don't want to regret it."
"I'm just asking out of curiosity."
The old man never expected that Lu Yun didn't care about these things at all.
His smile immediately froze on his face.
Just a moment later, he snorted coldly: "Good boy!"
Lu Yun smiled awkwardly: "Old man, what I mean is that since you don't want to hurt us, then just leave it alone."
"If anything goes wrong, we'll die here. If we succeed, it won't affect you."
After saying that, Lu Yun no longer looked at the old tree demon, but walked forward with big strides.
The old tree demon snorted coldly: "You guys who don't know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is, you will regret it one day."
Lu Yun heard these words, but he just smiled faintly and didn't care about them.
They shuttled back and forth in the sand for a while, and it was almost night before they stopped again.
There is a small village not far ahead.
But the village looks very dilapidated.
I don't know if there is anyone living there.
The village is not big. Looking from a distance, even if there are people inside, there are probably only seven or eight households.
It is estimated that there are no more than fifty people inside.
It's getting dark.
They had already experienced a change in climate yesterday, with the barren slopes becoming barren after dark.
Not only is it cold here at night, but a hurricane of level 12 or 13 may also blow.
If you encounter such sandstorms without any shelter, it would be really uncomfortable.
Seeing a small village in front of them, Lu Yun and his friends were naturally very curious.
Pengdong immediately said, "Shall we go over and take a look?"
Lu Yun nodded slightly and said, "Let's go and take a look. If there's no one here, we'll stay here tonight."
Just as they finished speaking, they saw smoke rising from the chimney of one of the houses.
"Hey!"
Pengdong smiled widely.
"What's the point of saying that?"
"Just now we were wondering if there was anyone in here, and now there's smoke coming out from the kitchen?"
"That's right, I'm hungry too!"
As he said this, his stomach started to growl.
Seeing him like this, Lu Yun and Long Tiantian couldn't help but laugh.
Come to think of it, they both felt their stomachs rumbling as well.
There is still one night left before the curse in Lu Yun's body is broken.
In addition, it would not matter even if the curse broke through Lu Yun’s blockade.
As long as Lu Yun can control his emotions for the time being, it won't do anything to him.
And when it is necessary to release it once, Lu Yun can control it again.
It’s just that Lu Yun doesn’t plan to seal it himself again.
Soon they arrived in front of the house.
Most of the houses in these deserts are made of mud.
The wall is not too high, but it is very thick.
This can block the ravages of wind and sand.
Dang Dang Dang!
Lu Yun reached out and knocked on the door.
Soon, the door opened.
An old lady came out from inside.
But when he saw the old lady, Pengdong's alertness immediately increased, and his hand involuntarily pressed on the hilt of the Nine Dragon Sword.
He had already stuffed the Nine Dragon Sword into its scabbard.
But at this moment he was ready to pull it out at any time.
The reason he did this was because this old lady looked very similar to the tree monster they had seen before.
Similarly, the old lady's face is also covered with bark structures.
Even their appearances are not much different. If it weren't for her braids and no Adam's apple, it would be impossible to tell their gender.
But he didn't actually pull it out, just in case.
In fact, Lu Yun was also a little surprised when he saw the old lady's appearance.
But he also didn't show any doubt or frown.
He just gently bowed to the old lady and said, "Grandma, there are big storms in the northern desert. We would like to stay in your small yard tonight. Is that possible?"
In everything, be polite before using force.
It doesn't matter if the old lady doesn't agree with them living here. They can just move to another place.
If the old lady is against them, it won't be too late for them to fight back.
The old lady looked at the three of them and said, "Come in, but there are very few people coming to the north."
"You three came to our wild land, aren't you afraid that we might eat human flesh?"
Lu Yun was quite resentful after hearing what the old lady said.
It was as if she knew that people in other places were very hostile to their barren land.
However, Lu Yun remained calm and said, "I believe grandma won't."
The old lady slowly closed the door and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Lu Yun said: "If you really wanted to eat us, you wouldn't have told us this."
"What if we are timid? Then won't we run away?"
The old lady didn't expect Lu Yun to give such an answer, and she showed a look of surprise after hearing it.
Then she smiled and said, "You are quite eloquent."
Lu Yun said, "Grandma, can we have a bowl of water?"
In this desert area, you can directly give them gold, you can ask them for delicacies from land and sea, maybe they don’t care about these, but water is as precious as oil!
Because places like deserts are extremely dry, there are flying sand and rocks everywhere, and therefore no living things can survive.
Therefore, any life form that can control the water source is basically unwilling to share it with other species or their own kind.
Plus, there was still water in the water bags that Lu Yun and the others brought.
So if Lu Yun suddenly asked this question now, he would most likely be rejected by the old lady.
But what was unexpected was that the old lady pointed to the vertical well next to her and said, "The water is in there, you can get it yourself."
Lu Yun agreed and went to fetch water himself.
Pengdong and Long Tiantian looked at each other and walked quickly towards Lu Yun.
When they got to Lu Yun, they whispered to him, "Brother Lu, we obviously brought water with us, why did you still have to draw water from other people's wells?"
Lu Yun smiled and said, "I think the water here is not ordinary water."
"If my guess is correct, the water in this well should be Ruoshui. Drinking a sip of it can prolong your life and improve your cultivation."
You have to know that this is a desert. If we want to dig a well, how deep should we dig?
Moreover, such dry weather is likely to cause a large amount of water to evaporate.
Even if they built a well, they would definitely cover it with something like leather.
This will prevent the moisture below from evaporating.
The old lady who let them in turned her head and looked at Lu Yun when she heard what Lu Yun said.
"I didn't expect you to be so smart."
Lu Yun smiled slightly, without any pride. He just said calmly: "Is that the case? I have encountered this kind of thing before."
"Grandma, I guess you are already quite old, right?"
When he said "not young", he didn't mean she was in her eighties or nineties, but that she might have lived for several hundred years.
When Lu Yun said this, the old lady smiled and said, "Yes, I am not young anymore. I am already 605 years old."
"wipe!"
When Pengdong heard this, he was so shocked that he couldn't help but swear.
I six hundred and five years old?
Is it that old?
Wouldn't that mean this old lady could achieve immortality?
