Lin Yu and the other three were heading towards the northwest of the illusion. The three of them did not have a clear goal. They also explored with a try-your-luck attitude.
Is there really any water source under this illusion? If it really existed, it would have been dried up by the scorching sun.
The three of them were still in a desert at this time. Lin Yu looked back and estimated the distance traveled by the three of them, which was almost ten miles away.
"Finally I saw something!" Lin Zheng pointed at the yellow sand castle in the distance and swallowed hard.
Ye Yuxuan and Lin Yu noticed the place Lin Zheng mentioned. This was the first time the three of them had discovered anything other than sand since their trip. Although it is not a source of water, there is still a glimmer of hope.
"Go there and have a look, maybe there will be something!" Lin Yu and the two of them nodded and prepared to go together.
Viewed from a distance, the entire castle is built of yellow soil. It is said to be a yellow clod of soil, but it is not the same as an ordinary clod of soil. Its hardness is far beyond that of ordinary clods of soil. Moreover, the entire earth block is very beautiful when built together. The gaps between each earth block are well-proportioned and have a very distinct sense of layering. Therefore, although the entire castle is made of earth blocks, it still gives people a sense of Luxurious feeling.
Lin Yu and the others quickly arrived at the castle. When they entered the castle gate, they all smelled an earthy smell. Judging from the dust around it, it seems that no one else has been to this place.
After entering the gate, the three people's eyes were fixed on the most eye-catching stone carvings in the hall. The appearance of the statue is the same as that of an ordinary stone lion, except that its size and shape are astonishingly large. There is still some dust covering the entire stone body, but it cannot cover up its majestic momentum at all.
Statues of this size can only exist in illusions.
In addition to this statue, there are some small windows, dark green vines, damaged fireplaces, and burnt out candles. The entire first floor of the castle gives people a strong sense of depression.
The three of them also fumbled their way forward relying only on the sunlight coming from the small window.
Although there is no longer the scorching sun, the temperature in the entire castle is no lower than outdoors. In addition, the smell of this place is abnormal, and the three people feel terrible in this castle.
After the three of them hovered on the first floor for a while, they were ready to go to the second floor to have a look. But as soon as the three of them found the stairs, they discovered that the road to the second floor had been completely blocked by pure steel chains.
The three of them wanted to use external force to open the pure steel chain, but there was no response. Yuanli's attack had no effect on it, presumably this was Chen Qingsong's design.
"It seems there is nothing left in this place! It's so stuffy in here, let's go out!" Ye Yuxuan felt a little dizzy, and the darkness of this place made her a little upset.
"That's all we have to do..."
Still no one was found in the castle, and the three of them were preparing to leave.
Go down the stairs and follow the path illuminated by the light on the first floor, all the way to the door.
Just as the three of them were about to open the door and leave, the entire door was actually heavily locked by an external force.
"No!" Lin Yu and the others stepped forward to try to open the door, but unexpectedly, the same chain as on the second floor appeared on the entire door again.
"I'm not a place where you can come and leave whenever you want!" A burst of angry voices came from behind the three of them.
A black figure actually walked out of the huge statue before. His appearance was no different from that of an ordinary middle-aged man, but his mouth was as majestic as that of a lion.
"Who are you?..." Ye Yuxuan looked at the middle-aged man in front of her and asked vaguely.
The middle-aged man stared at the three people for a moment and said, "You are this year's disciples! You can come here at such a time. It seems that Lao Wan and Lao Chen have recruited some pretty good disciples."
The middle-aged man approached Ye Yuxuan and said in a somewhat unserious manner: "The little beauty is also a disciple of those two!"
Ye Yuxuan only felt a little bored, and deliberately distanced herself from them, saying politely: "The three of us came here to search for water sources for the team, and we asked our seniors if there is any extra water here?"
After hearing this, Lin Yu and Lin Zheng smiled and saluted the man in front of them. For the three of them, this sudden person is their only hope.
"Well... it's easy to talk! I am the city lord of this castle. You can call me the Messenger of the Sand Sea. I am here to provide you with water." The Messenger of the Sand Sea patiently gave the three people The reason was explained, but those eyes kept fluttering back and forth among the three of them.
"Senior, please give us water!" The three of them were overjoyed after hearing this, and they finally found a solution.
But Lin Yu felt that this matter was not that simple. The time when the Sand Sea Messenger appeared was too coincidental. If it was really that simple, why didn't the messenger appear directly as soon as he entered the castle?
"But..., I have had a habit for so many years. If you want my water source, you have to exchange your things! Let's exchange one thing for another, it's very fair!" said the Sand Sea Messenger with a smile. .
The three of them put away their smiles one after another and asked tentatively: "What do you want, senior?"
"Hehehe... First of all, my water source is enough for you to get out of this desert. It is quite sufficient for your entire team. As for what I want..., since the three of you came here with honest intentions , I will not force you, just give me the life of one of the three of you!" The tone of the sand sea messenger deliberately increased, as if to put pressure on the three of them.
"One person's life?!" Ye Yuxuan shouted, but she could not accept the request made by the Sand Sea Messenger.
Lin Zheng and Lin Yu looked at each other, and Lin Zheng was the first to speak out: "Senior, are you serious? Such a request is really embarrassing us!"
The Shahai Messenger chuckled and said: "Hehehe..., the choice is in your hands, you can choose not to."
"You...!" The words of the Shahai Messenger left Lin Zheng speechless.
Lin Yu continued to add: "Senior, isn't there any other way? It's not easy for the three of us to get here. Why should senior make things difficult for us?"
"Young man..., who do you think I am? My rules will not change! Even if Wanqiu comes late today, my rules of exchange will not change." The tone of the sand sea envoy was gentle. He had an extremely tough attitude and said forcefully.
"Then the three of us will say goodbye first! It's a great honor to be able to see senior today, but senior's request is really difficult to fulfill, so we'll say goodbye!"
Ye Yuxuan's attitude was also not inferior to that of the Shahai Messenger. She seemed to be a different person, and her tone was extremely cold! Even Lin Zheng and Lin Yu were a little surprised!
