The last time they were separated, Xia Xiaoan had someone to take care of him. Even though the shelter he lived in was destroyed by a natural disaster, at least he could find something to eat and survive.
However, this northwest region has been affected by multiple factors such as blizzards, extreme cold, major earthquakes, animal and insect plagues, floods, and high temperature disasters. It is either a Gobi desert or endless yellow sand, and finding food is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
In this situation, no matter how good the qualifications and strength of Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu as users of abilities are, they will die of thirst and starvation.
Therefore, walking is the safest way.
Considering the strong wind and sand, Su Miao put special purification masks on Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu.
These masks are high-tech products of the new era. Su Miao ordered a batch of them before the end of the world. They are mainly used to prevent dangerous situations such as toxic gas leaks. Using them to prevent wind and sand is a waste of resources.
Su Miao's intuition told her that they would soon encounter the horrific black wind disaster again.
As if to confirm Su Miao's guess, on the morning of the third day, when they had breakfast in the peach tree magic circle and were about to set off, the sky in the distance turned dark.
“Take root!”
Su Miao immediately removed the steel plate under the mutant peach tree, allowing the mutant peach tree to take root in the desert.
One big water ball after another fell, causing the mutant peach tree to take root frantically under the sand. The mutant peach tree quickly grew to more than three meters high, and its trunk continued to become thicker and stronger. The unfolded magic barrier became solid, completely blocking the black wind disaster that was howling outside.
But in the blink of an eye, the world seemed to fall into complete darkness.
Su Miao raised his hand and released a flash spell, making the space within the magic barrier brighter.
Xia Xiaoan, Lin Jiujiu, and Myna looked at the top of the magic barrier in fear and found that the barrier had been buried by sand at some point, which made it so dark inside the barrier.
They remembered Sister Su Miao's suggestion three days ago not to let them fly. If they really flew and encountered this black wind disaster on the way, would they still be alive?
"never mind."
Su Miao lit up a magic little orange lamp.
The light from the flash magic faded, replaced by a warm orange magic light.
The energy source of the magic orange lamp is energy ore. The production method is very simple. A small piece of energy ore can supply for thirty years.
"Your Highness, this black wind is too terrifying."
The starling trembled.
Su Miao said: "Well, it's scary."
Although he said it was scary, Myna, Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu did not see any trace of fear on Su Miao's face. Instead, he seemed to enjoy this closed magical space, and it could even be said that he felt a rare sense of peace.
Xia Xiaoan couldn't help but think of her sister Su Miao's behavior when she was scared in the villa in the tourist area and tried to crawl into the closet and the big cardboard box.
Perhaps thinking of these things, Xia Xiaoan was not so scared anymore when looking at the warm little magic orange lamp in front of him.
"Sister Su Miao, the peaches are ripe."
Lin Jiujiu was also scared at the beginning.
However, her attention was soon drawn to the yellow peaches on the mutant peach tree.
Each of these yellow peaches weighs five or six pounds. They look beautiful and smell even more fragrant. She likes this fragrance very much.
"Ah."
Su Miao picked a few yellow peaches.
One for her, one for Xia Xiaoan, one for Lin Jiujiu, and one for Myna.
Perhaps because there have been no plants in the desert for a long time, the nutrients in the sand are very abundant.
Therefore, when Su Miao used the big water ball to help the mutant peach tree grow, the mutant peach tree absorbed a lot of nutrients, and the yellow peaches it produced were naturally more beautiful and more delicious.
Most importantly, there are no pests.
It is worth mentioning that although this yellow peach is called a yellow peach, it is actually the same as a juicy peach.
The skin can be easily torn off, and the flesh melts in the mouth. If it is placed before the end of the world, it will probably be regarded as a fairy fruit like the peaches.
good to eat!
Su Miao ate two in a row.
Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu were full after eating one.
The starling had a big appetite and ate five before saying it couldn't eat any more.
It can be seen that the fruits of this mutant peach tree are really delicious, but it’s a pity that I can’t take them away after just a few days of use.
About thirty-five minutes later, the sand covering the magic barrier began to sink.
This is the roots of the mutant peach tree devouring the sand.
Soon, a huge circular pit was formed with the mutant peach tree as the center, and Su Miao, Xia Xiaoan, Lin Jiujiu, and Mynah Bird could see the blue sky with the scorching sun hanging high in the sky again.
Looking around, the air above the sand under the scorching sun was distorting, which was terrifying.
As for the black wind disaster, it seemed as if it had never appeared.
Su Miao came out of the magic circle, reached a high altitude and looked into the distance.
She discovered a serious problem.
Originally, there was a road in front of them, but now there is nothing but endless yellow sand.
Eh?
What should we do next?
Using a compass?
A compass won’t work. The Earth’s magnetic field is still in a chaotic state. If you follow a compass, you won’t know where you’ll get lost.
Watching the sun go by?
Su Miao was speechless as he looked at the brand new sun emerging from the mirage in the distance.
There are two suns in the sky right now...
No, there are three suns.
Affected by the three suns, the temperature in the desert continued to rise, and such a temperature was obviously not suitable for continuing the journey.
Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu would not be able to bear it, even if two of the suns were fake. It was as if two mirrors appeared in the sky, refracting the solar energy that should have been reflected from the earth's surface back through the mirrors, causing the temperature in this desert area to continue to rise.
Is this a new take on doomsday disasters?
Su Miao returned to the peach tree magic circle. Things had come to an end, so he had some ice cream first.
After this strange and terrifying three-day phenomenon ended and the temperature on the desert surface dropped a little, they continued their journey. It happened that the ripe yellow peaches on the mutant peach tree needed to be harvested.
Chapter 277: Judgment? Never heard of it
2024-04-16
It is different from the mutant fruit trees Su Miao had planted before.
This mutated peach tree grew to more than three meters tall, with lush branches and leaves. In theory, it should bear a lot of peaches.
However, there were only 99 peaches on the mutant peach tree, including the peaches eaten by Su Miao, Xia Xiaoan, Lin Jiujiu, and Myna.
"Do these peaches have any special effects?"
Su Miao looked at the yellow peach in his hand curiously, feeling a little surprised.
She picked another one, took a bite, and savored it carefully. Apart from being delicious, she didn't feel anything special about it.
Never mind, just put them all away.
"Sister Su Miao, there are three suns in the sky..."
Xia Xiaoan glanced at the sky and felt a little scared.
Same as Lin Jiujiu.
Normally, one sun is enough to make it impossible for people to survive normally, let alone three suns.
Su Miao ate a yellow peach and said, "It's just a mirage. Let's set off again after the mirage disappears."
……
300 kilometers northwest of the yellow peach tree magic barrier, there is a small private base under the endless yellow sand.
It is said to be small because the area where people can move around in this base is very small.
It is said to be big because only less than one-tenth of the area of this base has been developed, and there are still many unknown areas waiting for them to develop.
"After the black wind disaster, there was a three-day volcanic eruption. They didn't want us to live well."
"Yeah, Yizier and the others died a really tragic death."
Two dusty men with their faces covered walked into the passage and headed inside.
They untied their masks as they walked. It was really unbearable for most people to keep their masks on in such hot weather.
The one walking on the left is Zhou Zijin, 28 years old, a bounty hunter, and the one walking on the right is Wu Zhong, 27 years old, an archaeologist.
The man called One Ear was a well-known sand bandit in the neighborhood. He gathered a group of people and relied on his superb swordsmanship to run rampant in the desert.
Originally, Yizier wanted to call himself "Yidaoxian", but his appearance was too wretched, and not long after he called himself Yidaoxian, one of his ears was cut off by a passing person with special abilities.
From then on, One Ear became his nickname, and no one knew his real name.
Zhou Zijin, Wu Zhong and Yizi'er had clashed several times, and the grudge between the two sides was deep.
This time when they came to the underground palace base, they were blocked by a man with ears. They thought they were going to die, but unexpectedly, at the critical moment, a black wind disaster occurred in the desert and buried both sides.
Fortunately, when the black wind disaster ended, Zhou Zijin and Wu Zhong crawled out first and escaped to the entrance of the underground palace base.
But those with one ear are not so lucky.
Some of them were blown into sieves by the black wind, some were buried under the sand and suffocated to death, and only a few people with one ear were lucky enough to crawl out.
It just took them a little longer to climb out, and as soon as they climbed out they encountered the extremely terrifying Three Days in the Sky.
To be precise, it is very close to the focus of the three-day flying star on the ground.
Several people, including Yitiaoer, spontaneously combusted in the sunlight without any warning and were burned to ashes alive.
so horrible!
Wu Zhong said, "Old Zhou, speaking of which, there won't be any problems with the commission you accepted this time, right? Why do I always feel it's dangerous?"
Zhou Zijin smiled and said, "That's not a problem, because it's not just our team that has taken on this commission. There are more people involved, and if nothing unexpected happens, there will be more people coming here in the future."
Wu Zhong said, "But the people who commissioned this are from Beisha Prison."
Zhou Zijin smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm here."
A few minutes later, they walked through a long passage, crossed a stone bridge, and entered the underground tavern.
Before we even reached the pub, we could hear noisy sounds coming from inside.
Without any obstruction, the two men walked into the tavern.
"Oh, two new people are coming."
Everyone in the tavern looked over, then looked away when they saw that they didn't recognize him.
Anyway, people who come here at this time can't think of any other reason except coming for that thing.
"Have you heard? Sha Ren, the leader of Beisha Prison, has announced that he will definitely obtain the sacred object in the underground palace."
"Shh, keep your voice down. There might be people here arranged by Sha Ren."
"Oh my god, the people in Beisha Prison are all ruthless people."
"I told you to keep your voice down, but look over there, all the ruthless people from Yancheng are here."
Zhou Zijin and Wu Zhong, who had just sat down, felt their butts a little hot. They looked over carefully and saw a few beardless people with special abilities with their fingers pinched like orchids glancing over. They immediately looked away and dared not look again.
The leader of Yancheng is named Wu Ji. After the end of the world, he was soaked in flood water for seven days and awakened his ability to save himself.
Being able to survive should have been something worth celebrating, but Wu Ji discovered that he had lost his lower body because he had been soaked in water for too long.
However, there is gain in loss. Since he lost the things below, his strength has been increasing day by day.
Wu Ji occupied a base in the desert and renamed it Yancheng Base.
After the establishment of Yancheng Base, Wu Ji completely opened the base to the outside world, but there was a requirement to join Yancheng Base, which was to remove the following.
As for the women, no relevant news spread out of Yancheng, because the women who went in seemed to have disappeared mysteriously and no one had seen them since.
