I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

"Our side is roughly like the south. Our continent is roughly divided into the south and the north, separated by a vast and boundless desert.

That desert is at least ten thousand miles away, and you can't fly across it, you can only cross it on foot."

"Can't fly? What's the reason?"

"It should be some kind of law. In short, the big desert divides the continent into two.

The Nine-Tailed Sky Fox Clan you mentioned should be located in the north. In short, I'm sure there is no one in the south. "

"So that's the case, thank you Patriarch."

"Little brother, is it possible that your search for the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox Clan has something to do with your lost partner?"

"Yes, my wife is a descendant of the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox Clan. Although she has lived in the outside world since she was a child, she has a natural feeling for the place where her clansmen live.

So, I thought she might go all the way there. "

"Well, that's right. You are undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack when looking for each other. It will be much better if you meet at a common destination. Maybe you will meet on the way."

Gu Ming couldn't help but smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Hehe, the auspicious words of the patriarch."

"But little brother, I have to remind you that you must be careful when crossing that desert. It is said that there are many powerful beasts wandering in the desert."

Gu Ming nodded: "Well, thank you Patriarch for reminding us, we will be careful."

Gu Ming has a bit of experience in crossing the desert. He had crossed the world in the painting last time.

Even though this desert is full of dangers, he is still quite confident in his own strength. After all, this is not the real ancient times, and it is unlikely that real ancient beasts will appear.

In other words, even if it appears, it is a reduced-dimensional version, so there is nothing to worry about.

And this time with Bai Suzhen, it can be regarded as an extra powerful helper

Chapter 293 Mysterious Cactus Forest

After bidding farewell to the villagers, Gu Ming and Bai Suzhen headed north.

Along the way, it can be said to be an eye-opener, seeing countless strange creatures, of course, including some monsters, demons, fierce beasts and so on.

At the same time, some ancient spirit grasses, spirit flowers, and spirit fruits that have long since disappeared from the outside world were harvested.

It's a pity that they didn't find any news about Nie Xiaoqian, Xiaoqing, and Yingning.

About ten days later, the two arrived at the large desert that divided the continent into two.

Standing on the edge of the desert and looking around, people can fully understand the meaning of "clear and clear".

On one side, the green hills are faint, the grass grows and warblers fly, a scene full of vitality.

On the other side, in the endless sand sea, life seems to have disappeared here, and it looks lifeless.

Standing on the edge of the desert and watching for a while, Bai Suzhen remembered what the head of the Xingtian clan said, and said to Gu Ming: "Young master, why don't I try to see if I can fly?"

"I'll come!"

Gu Ming is a man after all, so he should take the initiative.

With a thought, the body soared into the air and flew, and finally understood why it was impossible to fly over here.

Because there is an invisible force suppressing it, it's like carrying a mountain on your back.

In such a state, even if it barely flies, how far can it fly?

"Young Master Gu, what's the matter?"

Seeing that Gu Ming fell to the ground after flying for a short distance, Bai Suzhen couldn't help asking.

"Miss Bai, you can try it yourself."

Gu Ming confirmed that there is no danger, so it is better to let Bai Suzhen experience it for herself, which is better than his explanation.

"Um"

Bai Suzhen responded, and followed her into the air

"So it is!"

As soon as Bai Suzhen flew into the air, she couldn't help but suddenly realized, and she also fell to the ground.

"As the patriarch said, there must be some kind of law here"

Gu Ming looked at the depths of the desert and murmured.

Bai Suzhen couldn't help sighing: "It's such a strange place, it seems that my previous vision was still too narrow."

"Isn't this just right? This time is a chance to learn more."

"That's true"

Bai Suzhen smiled, and followed Gu Ming into the depths of the desert.

It went smoothly at the beginning, the sky was clear, and there were no ferocious beasts.

After walking for half a day, the sky suddenly darkened.

"It looks like there's going to be a storm."

Bai Suzhen looked up at the dim sky and said.

"Ok!"

Gu Ming nodded, subconsciously glanced around.

If this was just an ordinary desert, he wouldn't care about wind and sand at all, so what if it was a sandstorm?Can't hurt him at all.

But here you can't take it lightly, maybe you will encounter a strong wind or something.

"Go, go and hide."

Gu Ming pointed to a sand dune in the distance.

"Ok!"

The two quickly came to the sand dune, and together they dug out a sand hole several meters deep.

Afterwards, Gu Ming arranged two layers of protective restrictions outside the sand cave.

Before long, it was completely dark.

A huge sandstorm swept in from a distance, covering the sky and the sun, like a landslide.

"not good"

The first wave of sandstorms passed by, and the first restriction set by Gu Ming was instantly destroyed, and the second restriction was like a candle in the wind

In this way, Gu Ming finally saw the horror of this desert, he couldn't help but exclaimed, and at the same time quickly took out a few chess pieces to set up the chess game.

Bai Suzhen didn't stay idle either, she hurriedly helped repair the restriction, and at the same time added another layer of protection.

The storm is getting tighter and tighter, and the two are constantly tinkering and strengthening the restriction.

After almost half an hour, the storm finally calmed down.

"Is this a blow to us?"

Bai Suzhen laughed at herself.

"That's right, but that's good, it's a wake-up call for us."

For the next journey, the two of them increased their vigilance even more, after all, they sailed carefully.

Two days later, the two walked into an area of ​​rolling sand dunes.

These sand dunes are generally not high, the highest ones are no more than tens of meters, and the short ones are only a few meters.

After walking not far, Gu Ming suddenly stopped.

Bai Suzhen also felt it, frowned and looked around, muttering: "It seems that we are being targeted, there must be something under the sand dunes."

"It's okay, stop with stillness!"

Gu Ming replied softly, Bi Luo hung above his head, and at the same time displayed his discernment and probed in all directions

"boom"

At this time, a sand dune suddenly exploded tens of meters away, and a huge scorpion jumped out of the sand.

"boom"

Immediately afterwards, there was another bang, and the adjacent sand dunes also exploded, and a larger scorpion appeared in the sand.

"A scorpion with a human face?"

After seeing the shape of the two scorpions, Gu Ming couldn't help frowning.

This is the record he saw in the ancient books left in the Linglong Pagoda. This thing belongs to the devil world. It looks like a scorpion, but its body is quite large. When it grows up, it can reach tens of meters from head to tail.

The reason why it is called the Scorpion with a Human Face is because its head is similar to that of a human being, and the overall appearance is very strange.

Its whole body is covered with a hard shell, and except for the head, there are almost no weak spots on the whole body.

But the head of this thing can be retracted into the shell like a turtle, making it impossible to start.

Its pair of giant pincers are quite terrifying, capable of crushing magic weapons, and its pointed tail is sharp and highly poisonous. In short, this thing is not easy to deal with.

"Susu Susu"

After the two magic scorpions appeared, they rushed towards Gu Ming and the other two at the same time.

Although the two of them are big in size, their walking speed on the sand surface is quite astonishing, and they feel like shrinking to an inch.

"Baby girl be careful!"

Gu Ming yelled at Bai Suzhen, and waved his hand at the same time, a ball of flame gushed out, sweeping towards the demon scorpion like flowing water.

At the same moment, Bai Suzhen had a thought, and the magic weapon turned into a long sword, slashing heavily from bottom to bottom

The sword was like a rainbow, splitting a Zhang Xu deep crack in the sand, and rushed towards the charging magic scorpion with lightning speed.

"boom"

The magic scorpion was sprinting, there was no time to dodge, it was directly lifted up by the sand waves, and it flew upside down like a kite with a broken string more than ten meters away

However, this guy is really tough.

As soon as he stabilized his figure, he jumped up, retracted his head into the shell and fell headlong, his body submerged in the sand in an instant.

It seems that they want to sneak attack from the ground.

Bai Suzhen was not afraid at all, she moved to the top of the sand dune in an instant, holding the sword in one hand and making a tactic with the other, a golden light gushed out from her body to protect her whole body.

"The sky and the earth are infinite, the universe borrows the law"

"boom!"

At this time, the sand scorpion emerged from the sand again, sweeping towards it with its sharp pointed tail.

"cut!"

Bai Suzhen soared into the sky, the light of the sword in her hand reflected the sunlight, forming a dazzling light curtain and slashing down heavily.

"boom"

There was a muffled sound at the scene, and a large cloud of sand and dust was splashed in all directions under the turbulent airflow.

This sword finally broke through the magic scorpion's defense, and cut through the hard shell it was proud of.

After all, Bai Suzhen's own strength is not weak, and this sword is transformed from a magic weapon, and its power is far greater than ordinary magic swords.

"squeak"

The tail was injured, and the magic scorpion let out a strange howl in pain, and rushed under the sand again.

On the other side, Gu Ming seemed a little more relaxed.

At first, they summoned some fire to burn the scorpion, but found that it was not very useful, so they decisively used the nine-character mantra.

After all, so far, the Confucian nine-character mantra is the most effective move to restrain demons.

"Benevolence!"

"righteous!"

Gu Ming only used two words from the nine-character mantra, and suppressed the human-faced demon scorpion until he couldn't move.

The word "benevolence" is pressed on the body, and the word "righteousness" is pressed on the tail.
