no soul

How can there be waves in the desert!

Everyone was shocked and ran towards the highest point in the city.

The giant tree stopped growing, but the roots were still stretching, and the crustal movement dragged their forward speed very slowly.

That's too late.The waves were rolling down to the edge of the city.

"Hide!" Wan Guchuan pulled Lin Hong over and made him stand in the gap formed by the giant trees.

The turbulence of the waves would drag them into the turbulence, and before they drowned, they might hit something and get bloody.

The current situation is not optimistic, at least they must first find someone who can stabilize their figure in the waves.Sand houses are by no means solid. In comparison, these giant trees whose roots are still stretching may be more stable, so we can only gamble.

Lin Hong was still panting heavily from running, and he felt that he was almost carried into the gap between the trees by Wan Guchuan.

He had just stood up, and his mind was still confused, when Wan Guchuan was already facing him and also stood in.

Lin Hong suddenly felt that he was going to be out of breath...

Wan Guchuan tightly protected him inside.

He pulled out the Zuigu sword and held it backwards and inserted it into the tree trunk above Lin Hong's head to borrow strength.

The hand supporting Lin Hong's head had distinct joints and slightly protruding blood vessels.

The sound of the waves outside was getting louder and louder, almost drowning out all other sounds. I don't know if others heard Wan Guchuan's shout of "hide" just now.

"Boom boom boom"! !

The sound of the waves was too deafening and thrilling.

Wan Guchuan pulled Lin Hong's arm and put it on his shoulder, "Tighten up."

The two were very close, afraid that his voice would be overwhelmed by the sound of the waves, Wan Guchuan tried his best to speak in his ear.

The deep voice rang in Lin Hong's ears, disturbing him. Now is not the time to think about these things, but he just couldn't control it.

Lin Hong thought, let himself die...

He tightened his hands, hugged Wan Guchuan's neck tightly, and buried his face into his neck.

Let the sound of your heartbeat drown you.

It's okay to die now.

Wan Guchuan froze for a moment.

From just now, Lin Hong kept his head down and looked down on his expression and didn't speak. Now that he hugged him so tightly, Wan Guchuan thought he was scared, so he raised his hand that didn't hold the sword to protect his head, "Don't be afraid."

The sound of the waves is just around the ear.

"Hold your breath."

"boom"! ! !

The giant tree was crooked a few inches.

Foaming!The cold seawater hit Wan Guchuan's back and poured in, drowning them instantly!

The "boom" sound of the explosion turned into a deafening "gurgling" sound, pressing on the eardrum.

The icy and turbulent running water was tearing and pulling them. Because of the buoyancy of the water, their feet could not be stepped on firmly. They only managed to stabilize their bodies in place with the help of the tree.

The pressure of the sea water surged from all directions, cold and brutal, such a force made people sick.

Lin Hong suddenly remembered the feeling in his dream on the tall boat again. He was swept around by the waves, his mouth and nose were sealed by the salty sea water, his lungs were about to burst, and his body was in great pain.

It went on for quite a while.

Lin Hong closed his eyes tightly, he couldn't hold his breath anymore, he was dizzy and his lungs were hurting.

will be drowned...

Uncomfortable...Lin Hong was about to give up.

But he felt a hand lift his face, the force was stronger than the tide.Then, he felt pressure on his lips, and breath came in.

It was cold all around, Lin Hong's head was swollen, and all his attention was on his lips.

The line between life and death is blurred.

The turbulence seems to be less violent, and the "gurgling" sound has become softer.

As soon as the two came out of the water, they began to breathe heavily.

The tree roots grew wildly, misplaced the houses and urban buildings, and the earth's crust moved up and collapsed. Coincidentally, the terrain on their side was raised, and most of the waves were cut off. The water flow in their area was almost calm, and only running water remained. At this time they came to the shallow water, the water only covered their waists, and the water only reached the insteps when they walked forward.

And the waves below are still choppy.

The surging waves slapped on the crown of the giant tree, swept away the leaves, and the bare trunk was like a hand calling for help in the sea.

"Where are they?" Lin Hong gasped, his heart pounding, he didn't dare to look at Wan Guchuan, his mind was full of just now...

That's just saving yourself!

Lin Hong forced himself to calm down.

He was drenched all over, his black hair stuck to his pale face, shivering from the cold wind.

It was dark and his vision was not very good, and he couldn't see where the others were.

Wan Guchuan was also panting a bit, water dripped from his hair, and his eyes searched in the night.

"there."

Lin Hong looked in the direction he indicated.

Cheng Jinjiu heaved in the waves, holding onto a tree trunk with difficulty to keep himself from being sucked into the torrent.

I haven't seen Yu Tianyi and Ning Xiuyun yet.

"Let's go and help him." Lin Hong wanted to walk there but felt his body was as heavy as lead, and it was too exhausting to be in the water.

"Here we go again." Wan Guchuan said.

"What?" Lin Hong panted and looked back.

Another wave is coming!

They are exhausted, and if it happens again...

This is definitely going to kill them all.

Lin Hong frowned and looked around, his eyes swept across the high ground beside him, he was startled, and looked carefully——

The jars were all there.

In the middle of the stacks of jars was the jar with a slender neck—the jar they noticed first, as if it was the highest point of the city.

Wan Guchuan also saw those jars.

"It's too late. If this wave comes again, we will all die." Lin Hong kept looking there. "I'll go up and try."

"Let's go." Wan Guchuan walked towards him.

"I'm fine by myself!" Lin Hong stopped him, "I'll go up, you help them."

He glanced at the approaching tide, then at the crumbling Cheng Jinjiu, "It's too late."

"Lin Hong!"

"Trust me." Lin Hong glanced at him, and started to walk towards the overwhelming jars - all filled with bloodthirsty ghosts.

God knows how hard Wan Guchuan was to rush towards Cheng Jinjiu.

The turbulent sea water hit Cheng Jinjiu's face one wave after another. His whole body was like a rag floating in the cold waves. Trembling under control, he couldn't hold it anymore...

Just now when the waves came, he stepped forward a few steps to pull Yu Tianyi, but before she touched her, she grabbed Ning Xiuyun and hid in the crack of the tree.

One step too late, the nearest tree gap he could find was not strong, and was broken by the earthen house swept by in the turbulent current, and his whole body was sucked into the tide, torn wildly by the waves, collided by gravel, and in a hurry Only then did he seize this chance.

The waves were still beating against him, and he couldn't hold on anymore... His fingertips rubbed blood on the tree trunk, and then, even the last point of contact was separated.

He closed his eyes, and the next thing he would be torn apart in the turbulence.

However, within a few steps of the wave, Wan Guchuan, who was guarding the tree trunk behind him, stretched out his hand to grab the water, grabbed his back collar accurately, and lifted him up from the turbulent waves!The sound of water is in an uproar!

Wan Guchuan let go of his hand after returning to the shallow water by the same route.

Cheng Jinjiu fell to the ground and coughed fiercely, feeling weak all over, and his hands were trembling from the exertion.

"Thank you Wan..." When he turned around, there was no one behind him...

The night was dark, and he looked up for a long time before he saw the long black shadow that was already far away.

He began to reflect on himself, where did he slack in his usual martial arts training...

Wan Guchuan only looked at Lin Hong on the high platform, who was standing on the outermost edge of the densely packed jars.

"Girl Fish! Miss Ning!" Cheng Jinjiu gasped for breath, his footsteps were weak, and he even walked a little fluttering, "Girl Fish!"

"Shout what!"

Cheng Jinjiu turned around.

The two girls were drenched, Ning Xiuyun was panting while sitting on the ground, while Yu Tianyi was standing and twisting her hip flask.

"It's fine." Cheng Jinjiu looked at her and heaved a sigh of relief.

Yu Tian also unscrewed the jug and took a sip, then spit out another gulp - the jug was full of seawater, "Fuck!"

"What is that kid doing?" Yu Tianyi squinted his phoenix eyes and looked in Lin Hong's direction, while turning over the jug with one hand and pouring out all the liquid inside.

Looking from them, they saw Lin Hong go through layers of jars and sit cross-legged in front of the middlemost thin jar.

Wan Guchuan looked at Lin Hong surrounded by jars above him, always alert.

"Brother Lin, what are you going to do?" Cheng Jinjiu, Yu Tianyi and Ning Xiuyun came to Wan Guchuan's side.

"He seems to be talking about something." Ning Xiuyun said.

"Since he went up, the wave hasn't moved." Yu Tian also raised his chin towards the huge screen-like waves in the distance.

"It's useful." Cheng Jinjiu concluded.

"The tide has receded." Ning Xiuyun pointed to the waves below.

The sea water seems to seep into the sand, and slowly narrows the area, revealing the dryness of the yellow sand.

Those strong roots are also retracting a little bit, the trunk is gradually shrinking, the green leaves are reorganized, and the ground becomes flat.

Kavantia, which had been scoured to pieces, was being rebuilt, the earthen houses were restored, and the city walls were erected.

The sea water shrunk into a gentle stream that circled the city walls.

The trees are verdant and the earthen houses are well arranged.

In an instant, the lights are bright!

People speak and laugh.

There are people coming and going in the streets of the city, and the flow of carriages is endless.

In the desolate desert, a prosperous dream suddenly bloomed.

"This..." Everyone was stunned.

Wan Guchuan looked up at Lin Hong, and saw that he was talking about something while looking at the jar, with light in his eyes and a smile on his lips.

"Hey! It's changed!" Ning Xiuyun was astonished.

The scene in the city is constantly changing, the movement of people creates afterimages, the lights are flickering, the structure of the houses is also changing, and the trees are withered.

"No, the scene is looping." Cheng Jinjiu noticed something strange.

Cheng Jinjiu observed the layout of the city, "This seems to be the quiet and bustling Kavandia we stayed in for the first two days."

Cycled for an unknown number of rounds.

The crowd is gradually thinning, the water is gradually drying up, the trees are withered, and the lights are dimmed.

Laughter turned into cries and moans.

They watched the city in front of them go from prosperity to decline.

"What is Mr. Lin talking about? Why did you say it to the jar?" Ning Xiuyun was puzzled.

"Who is the collector Brother Lin is talking about?" Cheng Jinjiu asked Wan Guchuan.

"Desert." Wan Guchuan said.

The sun peeks out from the edge of the desert.

Ping Dan is here.

Kavantia dissipated with the wind.

Eternal spring and autumn are like a dream...

Far away from the hustle and bustle of Kavantia, the desert is open and exposed to the scorching sun, and all creatures stay away.

The yellow sand spread across thousands of miles meets the sky.

The desert is suffering and it is tough.The desert is too cold, but the lights in the world can warm it.

Hide the sound in the stone, and lock the thousands of creatures who are about to escape.

In this bustling city on the sandbar, there are clouds of tourists coming and going, and it has heard too many stories.

The random thinking about what is missing explodes in an instant, and it doesn't know how to go too far-the flood is like a flood, and the green plants are growing wildly.

Is the desert borrowing the eye of the bottle, or the bottle borrowing the spirit of the desert?

To chew this corner of human history over and over again——

Prosperity and decline, great sweetness followed by endless bitterness...

But the history of human beings is far more lengthy than this, and the quilt is more than 800 years old, but it doesn't understand.

The treacherous clouds in the capital city do not reach the border towns.

The first group of travelers was drowsy in the blazing sunset, with hundreds of years of culture in their bags.

A camel bell rang, and the two cultures that crossed the forbidden zone of life overlapped here.

How much prosperity is dying here, how much prosperity is going to decline here, how much right and wrong, and the noise of the world are buried deep in the yellow sand.

But human history is still turbulent.

It should not be the yellow sand in the frontier that is stagnant.

It is eager to know what is happening beyond the yellow sand, and it can only collect those visitors from afar.

Wan Guchuan looked back at Lin Hong, "What did you say?"

Lin Hong smiled, "I talked about 'Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times', I talked about 'thirty thousand miles east of the river flows into the sea', and I talked about 'the clouds are still behind the green mountains'" (Note 1)

He looked at the boundless yellow sand, "Aren't we going to make use of the Natasu Desert that we snatched from Beidi during the Great War?"

Wan Guchuan withdrew his Zuigu sword, "Then I will really become a civil servant."

800 years of honor and disgrace for a dynasty.

A handful of yellow sand weighs more than a thousand catties.
