"Ah? There are too many of them, just a few of you." Huang Qiang's face turned green when he heard that Qi Dong wanted to take them back to the sect.
He had spent a lot of effort to escape from the sect. If he went back now, wouldn't it be like jumping into a pit of fire?
"What? Do you have any objections?"
Seeing that Huang Qiang disagreed, Qi Dong's face immediately sank.
"If you take us there, you might still have a chance to survive, but if you refuse, I will bury your body in the yellow sand right now."
"I was joking just now. How could I, Huang Qiang, a tough-minded man, become a deserter? Everyone, I will take you to the sect." When he heard that Qi Dong was going to bury him, Huang Qiang's attitude immediately changed. A 180-degree turn, just as Qi Dong said, if he returns to the sect now, he can at least escape from the chaos for a while, but if he doesn't go back, there is absolutely no way he can escape from the hands of these people in front of him.
"You know the truth."
Qi Dong sneered, waved his hand and said: "Lead the way!"
"Okay, okay, big brother." After hearing Qi Dong's words, Huang Qiang nodded and bowed in response.
With Huang Qiang's guidance, everyone felt somewhat confident.
"You Xisha Sect is hidden deep in the desert. How do you buy daily necessities on weekdays?"
Tang Long asked with some curiosity. Whether he is a cultivator or an ordinary person, everyone needs daily necessities. It does not mean that if you become a cultivator, you can not brush your teeth, wash your face, or eat. After all, you still have to enjoy what you should enjoy. You can't just stop eating just because you don't need to, right?
"Every month, corresponding outer disciples will be arranged to go out for shopping, and most daily necessities will also be escorted by caravans, so there is no need to worry about insufficient supplies."
Huang Qiang smiled and replied that although it was deep in the desert, the sect was still relatively systematic in terms of logistical support.
"There is actually a chamber of commerce coming to such a deserted place?"
Tang Long laughed. If it were him, no matter how much money he was given, he would never come to such a place.
The most terrifying thing in the desert is not only the unpredictable weather here, but also some desert creatures that have never been seen before. If you are not careful, you will be buried here, and maybe not even the bones and dregs will be left.
"No matter what we buy, we will buy it at a price that is ten times higher than the world price. As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. They take a fancy to our money and we need their things. This is a good deal. .”
"ten times??"
This time even Qidong exclaimed, what is the concept of ten times the price? Originally, a cabbage cost 20 yuan, but if it was sold to Xisha, it would cost 200 yuan. What the hell is this robbery? What difference does money make?
Qi Dong couldn't help but think, if only he had known Huang Yang before the end of the world. He could have made a fortune by becoming a second-rate dealer. Why bother being trained like a dog by the leader all day long just to get into that forced class?
"Yes, we produce spar here, so money is not a problem for us, and we have also reached an agreement with those chambers of commerce. It is not only a money transaction, but also an exchange for items of equal value."
"That's it!" Qi Dong nodded suddenly. If he exchanged it with other items, Qi Dong would be more acceptable. After all, except for cultivators, ordinary people would not be able to recognize some things. Moreover, It is difficult for ordinary people to travel to the depths of this desert to do business with the Xisha Sect.
"Look, our sect's inspection point is ahead."
While walking, Huang Qiang suddenly pointed at a black spot not far ahead and said slowly.
"Inspection point?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Dong quickly looked in the direction of Huang Qiang's finger. Sure enough, directly in front of them, something like a watchtower slowly appeared in their field of vision.
"What is this so-called inspection point mainly used for?" Qi Dong couldn't help but ask curiously. After all, this watchtower looked very crude, and even gave people the feeling that it would fall down if it was blown by the wind.
"Actually, to put it bluntly, it is a sentry tower. It is mainly used to observe whether there are any strange beasts or unidentified people entering the sect's range. This sentry tower can also be called our first line of defense."
"Line of defense?"
Is there anything I can do to prevent mosquitoes, snakes and ants in this poor place?
Qi Dong's face was full of black lines, but he did not express his inner thoughts. After all, what existed was reasonable. Never point fingers in areas you don't understand, as this would easily offend others.
Ning Rou suddenly pointed to the watchtower in front of her and said to Huang Qiang, "Are you people on the watchtower still from your sect?"
Ding!
The moment Ning Rou finished speaking, everyone's expressions turned very ugly.
Qi Dong and others looked at Ning Rou in unison. The question she mentioned seemed to be a real question.
Now the entire Xisha Sect is in chaos. Whether the people on the watchtower are from the Xisha Sect or not is a completely different matter.
"Hurry and take cover!" Qi Dong and Ning Rou shouted almost in unison, but the people on the watchtower had already turned to their side.
"Ha." The man on the watchtower sneered. He looked at Qi Dong and others like a clown.
"It's not good to be discovered!!"
Qi Dong had a strong feeling in his heart. The people on the watchtower had obviously discovered them.
"Come on, get out of here!" Qi Dong said decisively to everyone. This place is just a desert with no bunkers. If the people on the watchtower wanted to kill them, it would be as easy as hitting a live target.
"I just thought of leaving now. Isn't it a little late?"
The person on the watchtower had a sneer on his lips, and then he waved his hand gently and said: "Let those guys out, just treat it as a meeting gift with them."
Qi Dong and others were just about to get up and run away, but suddenly there was a rumbling sound behind them.
"not good!"
Even though Qidong and the others were the quickest to come up with a response strategy, they were still a step too late.
Listening to the rumbling sound behind him, Qi Dong couldn't help but feel anxious. What kind of huge number of people would it take to create such a huge momentum?
"Look at Brother Dong, what is that??"
Yaoyao, who was running at the end, looked back and was almost scared out of her mind.
Behind them, a piece of white Yaya appeared. I don't know what it was, but it was like a white wave, advancing towards them.
"This is."
Qi Dong shook his head. He had never seen these white things before and didn't know what they were.
But when Huang Qiang heard this, he turned around and hugged him. This glance almost made him cry.
"Damn, this is a soul-eating giant ant."
"What is a soul-eating giant ant?" Qi Dong quickly answered.
"If there is anything in this desert that you must run away from when you see it, there are only three things. The first one is the soul-eating giant ant. The soul-eating giant ant not only has a strong reproductive ability, but also has the ability to reproduce them. The liquid also has a corrosive effect, and once caught by them, it will definitely end up being reduced to a skeleton."
"I am stupid?"
After hearing Huang Qiang's words, the speed of Qi Dong and others instantly increased several times. Are you kidding me? If they were caught up by these things, wouldn't they be bad luck?
As Huang Qiang ran, he said to Qi Dong: "There is a second kind of thing that will run away when it sees it, which is the yellow sand snake. This kind of snake is good at disguising itself, can stay with the yellow sand, and has It is extremely poisonous. It is said that people who have been poisoned by the yellow sand snake venom will not survive the day. As for the third type, it is the crazy sand scorpion. This kind of scorpion can be said to be the strongest among these three creatures. Its toxin is a neurotoxin. , as long as it is stung by him, it will invade all the organs of the body in three seconds, and it will collapse and die within ten seconds."
"This place of yours is really not meant for human beings."
Qi Dong cursed. He even admired this guy Huang Yang. It was a miracle that he could survive until now.
And just when Qi Dong was thinking wildly, many soul-eating giant ants emerged again in the direction of their escape.
"Surrounded!"
Qi Dong was shocked and quickly looked around to see if there was any place where he could rush out.
However, the next second, everyone was stunned. Countless soul-eating giant ants surged out all around them, giving them no chance to escape.
"Damn, where did so many soul-eating giant ants come out from? Normally, more than ten soul-eating giant ants would appear, which is already the limit."
"What did you say?!"
Qi Dong was shocked when he heard this, and said incredulously: "You mean, in your Xisha, there are usually not so many soul-eating giant ants."
"That's right."
Huang Qiang nodded and said in a deep voice: "Although the soul-eating giant ants are a group of creatures, when they come out to hunt, they will only send out teams of up to ten, and there will not be so many at all. Looking at the number of these guys in front of me, I It feels like they should be out in force."
"Grass!"
Qi Dong turned around suddenly after hearing this, and his eyes fell on the watchtower not far away from them.
And on the watchtower, the man whose face could not be seen clearly was still standing there.
"It's him?"
A trace of anger flashed in Qi Dong's heart. He had never met him before and he killed him so painfully. When he caught the opponent, he had to beat him to a third-level disability.
boom! !
With a muffled sound, the profound energy in Qi Dong's body exploded instantly, and immediately after, black flames swept out of his body.
"Ready to fight!!"
Qi Dong, Ning Rou, Luo Xinghe, Tang Long, Yaoyao, and Huang Qiang were back to back, releasing their own profound energy at the same time.
In an instant, with the six people as the center, violent energy fluctuations swept across instantly, setting off waves of yellow sand around them.
"Draw your sword and kill!"
boom!
The violent sword intention swept towards the soul-eating giant ants in front of him. In an instant, a large area of the soul-eating giant ants was directly chopped into pieces by the violent sword intention, not even leaving a corpse.
