The second condition is even more interesting. The demon stone wants everyone to find a "talking city". Everyone has just arrived in this world and only knows Shuiying City. However, it is difficult to find such a weird thing. In addition to the creatures gathered in the city because of their love for legends, all creatures of different races tried their best to recall the legends they knew and see what era this strange city was hidden in.
After three days of inquiring, I learned about hundreds of legends about the "city", some of which are similar to "talking". For example, in fairy tales, the city is directly imitated and treated as a "thing" with a mind. , for another example, the story of a "miracle" city a hundred years ago. As long as the wind blows into that city, the buildings inside will become parts of musical instruments and play the tune together. However, that city has long been destroyed due to war. Destroyed and impossible to find again.
Everyone was exhausted choosing stories at Wu Zhen's house. They were not sure which stories were reliable. It was unrealistic to try them one by one.
Until the fourth day, an old man from the human race came to Wu Zhen's house. He was brought here by a human compatriot from Shuiying City. The old man said that he seemed to know such a legend. The name of the story was "The Talking City". Everyone hurriedly welcomed him to his seat, brought tea and listened to the story. The old man was very kind and said with a smile that he had nothing big to say. Although he did not live in Shuiying City, he liked myths and legends very much. He came to visit his friends today and happened to meet him. This incident reminds me of this story.
The old man said that this was not a simple story, but a legend within a legend. Everyone listened respectfully, and the old man explained. No wonder no one could find out the legend about that city, because only the name of that legend had been spread. In fact, there is a legend about the "lost sea". This sea was once the most beautiful and vibrant sea, but one day a meteor fell from the sky. The meteor was lit with fire from the sky, and the water in the entire sea evaporated. It fell, the sea turned into the earth, and disappeared from the world. It is said that when people find the sea again, they will find infinite treasures hidden in the sea. This is one of the legends that many explorers in this world are passionate about, and in this legend There is also a legend among them, that is, mermaids. It is said that even if all life in this sea is extinct, there will still be one race that survives, and it is mermaids.
It is rumored that the mermaids have never died and controlled the entire ocean before the disaster struck. After the ocean disappeared, the family stayed alone and accompanied the souls of all the dead creatures. It is said that if a mermaid can be found, it is possible to obtain the mermaid's treasure, and if the mermaid meets a human, she will tell a legend to the human being. The name of this legend is called "Talking City".
Mu Ziyun and others were stunned when Zhuan Wangdong asked the old man softly: "Old man, we must first find the disappearing sea, then find the mermaid, and then ask it about the 'Talking City' , we can finally find that city, right?”
"Yes," the old man replied, "we must find the sea."
Huzi scratched his head and asked Wu Zhen, "Brother Zhen, where is the sea here?"
Du Xiaoyue touched Huzi's elbow and said, "Didn't you hear what the old man said? The sea has disappeared long ago. Now it should be
It's land. "
"This time..." Mu Ziyun hesitated, "The difficulty is too high."
Everyone nodded and sighed to each other. It would take a long time to find him, but he might not be able to fulfill such a condition in his lifetime. Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly said something inspiring, and he actually knew where the sea was.
Everyone hurriedly asked, and the old man smiled happily and said: "No one knows, only I know... The name of that sea has been changed long ago, and now it is called Zangbuga Desert."
"What?" The human compatriots who brought him here, as well as Wu Zhen and Zhan Fanzi, looked shocked. "Old man, you are not mistaken, that is a desert."
"That's right!" When the old man was confident, his eyes seemed to be shining, he said, "Only I know, I am sure, but the size of the Zangbojia Desert has expanded too much now, and it has long been larger than the original sea. It is so big that there is no vegetation in the deepest part, and no living thing can survive, so no one has gone in for thousands of years, but I have been to the deepest part, and I was lucky enough to come out alive."
"Could it be...that of your time..." the man said in disbelief, "but after all these years, you...have never said anything."
Kite hurriedly asked why, and the old man laughed loudly and said: "The Zangbuga Desert has always been a cannibal. Living things rarely come out alive because it is so big, dry and hot, there is no water, only the scorching sun, and no living thing wants to get close to it." It, let alone go deep, more than thirty years ago, our family lived on the edge of the desert. My youngest son suddenly disappeared one day. Someone told me that he was seen wandering around the edge of the desert for a long time, probably playing. I went to look, and sure enough I found my son's footprints, which were heading into the desert. I was so anxious that I followed the footprints step by step without even thinking about it. As a result, after a hundred steps, I was there. I encountered windy sand and when I ran back, I was knocked down several times by the wind. I couldn't tell the direction when I got up. As a result, I ran deeper and deeper.
Alas, I only brought half a bottle of water with me, and I didn't even bring a headscarf. It wouldn't work after being exposed to the sun for half a day. Then I was lucky enough to meet a sheep. The sheep probably walked in accidentally. Don't blame me for being cruel. I killed it directly, ate the meat, drank the blood, and put the skin on my head. I couldn't tell which was which. I could only judge the north and south from the position of the sun, but I couldn't get out after walking for a long time. I knew at that time I probably couldn't go back, but I didn't want to stop for a moment. I walked as far as I could. I probably walked for five whole days. When I thought about it later, I understood that I must have been lucky enough to walk into that area. The ruins of the sea and the desert are constantly expanding, but the former contours have not changed. The desert I saw during the day has not changed much, but at night, I see..."
The old man's eyes were shining, and everyone listened patiently and eagerly. The old man continued: "I saw the sea... really... I saw the creatures in the sea. Don't think that I am hallucinating. If it is a hallucination, It was impossible for me to come out alive. It was true. I was like walking in the sea and felt the warmth and coolness of the sea. I was excited all night. When the sun came out the next day, the sea disappeared, but I no longer felt any sensation in my body. My skin was dry and cracked, and my skin felt like it was soaked with water. I didn’t feel thirsty anymore. Every day after that was a dull day.
Like this, it's a desert during the day, it's so dry, and it's the ocean at night, and it's extremely cool all over my body. But I couldn't stay there forever, so I took a gamble and walked back without changing the direction. In the end, after walking for three days, I... I arrived at the edge of the desert, but it was not my hometown, but another place. This incident caused quite a stir at the time. The creatures were incredible that I could walk out of the desert alive, but I did not tell what I saw. Things are published because...too many creatures will die. They will rush into the desert for treasures and treasures, and they will most likely die before they find the place. It is already a miracle that I can come out alive, but in this world There are so many miracles. I originally wanted to hide this matter until death, but today I suddenly heard an old friend talk about it, and I suddenly felt that this secret should not be buried by a mortal like me. After all, it is just a sea, and a once glorious life myth. "
The old man paused and then said: "I also have some selfish motives. Before I am buried, I really want to see it again. No one who has seen such a sea will ever forget it. I have dreamed about it countless times. You should see it." See you, so you can understand how crazy I am now, hahaha..."
"Okay" Lingdang patted her chest and said, "Old man, we will take you there."
Zhan Fanzi hurriedly pulled the bell, and Wu Zhen said with a serious face: "Everyone, the edge of the Zangbuga Desert is hundreds of miles away from here. The environment in this desert is much more severe than you think, even for spiritual practice. No one, even a strong person, dares to go deep into it. The scope of the desert can be as large as a continent, and there is no food or water in it. Once we lose our direction, it will be bad."
The old man stood up, nodded and said, "I'm leaving. I'll stay at a friend's house. I'll leave tomorrow. If you don't go, I won't have any extravagant hopes. If you go, just take me with you."
After the old man left, Mu Ziyun said: "You don't have to go. Brother Zhen, you still have a family, so there is no need to take risks. As for us..." Everyone looked at each other and smiled, Mu Ziyun said, "We are ready to deal with it anytime and anywhere. All preparations.”
Lingdang smiled and said: "I don't know how many times we have experienced horrific situations. If you could see our past, you would also think that it is just a desert that eats people. There is nothing to be afraid of."
Wu Zhen and Zhan Fanzi were very worried, but when they saw everyone's expressions, no one was scared. They were all talking and laughing, and they were all very relaxed. Wu Zhen said: "I still have to give you some advice, really The environment is harsh, so be careful. Oh, that's right, you guys, all of you hide your secrets, probably you were all feared characters in the original world."
After a while of laughter, it fell into the night, and everyone had a sweet dream. The next day, everyone said goodbye to Wu Zhen and Zhan Fanzi, and picked up the old man named Reheman. The tiger controlled everyone in the heavy domain. Floating into the sky, everyone lay in the air with different postures, and were driven by Huzi to fly. They flew a distance of several hundred miles for more than half a day.
The old man never dreamed that he was overlooking the human world among the clouds, until he saw the bright yellow sky. The old man shouted: "Look, that is the Zangbuga Desert!"
