Staying in the sect, controlling beasts and cultivating immortals
Chapter 745 Ready to go
The situation of this stronghold is similar to the previous one.
Although it had been repaired after several days, it was still in tatters.
The sand slopes in many places have buried most of the buildings, with only a small part of the buildings still exposed.
After Huang Laodi arrived, he immediately went to find the person in charge of the place to inquire about the situation.
However, what surprised the people in the team was that they had not had food or water for two days due to lack of supplies, and there was no news of supplies from outside.
I also need to ask Huang Laodi and his group if they can help them.
When Deacon Liu saw Huang Laodi and the others coming, his eyes lit up.
They immediately asked Huang Laodi for help, hoping that Huang Laodi could be kind enough to give them some food and water.
Deacon Liu said flatteringly, "Brother Huang, please have some pity on me."
"We haven't eaten for a few days. There's not even a drop of water in our stomachs, let alone oil."
"Don't worry, we won't take your things for nothing. We will definitely give you a reasonable price."
However, Huang Laodi was not in a hurry to agree.
Under such circumstances, any resource is extremely precious.
If they cannot get supplies during the rest of the journey, it means that the little resources they have now may be enough to sustain the entire journey.
Huang Laodi did store a lot of supplies himself.
After all, he was the first person among all people to know about the changes in the stars in the sky.
Naturally, the first thing we did was to prepare more supplies.
But even so, Huang Laodi did not agree immediately.
Just said:
"Deacon Liu, it's not that I don't want to give it to you, but the supplies we have are not abundant. I wanted to get some supplies from you."
"As a result, you also don't have any supplies right away."
"We still have a long way to go. If we still can't get supplies, what do you want me to do? Won't I die in this vast desert?"
After hearing this, Deacon Liu also had a worried look on his face. He did not say anything else and turned away silently.
Huang Laodi sighed helplessly when he saw this situation.
It seems that the previous sandstorm was much more serious than the sandstorm in those three days.
At present, it seems that all the transit stations in the desert have fallen into a shortage of supplies.
In this vast desert, supplies are naturally the most important things.
Huang Laodi then immediately returned to his team.
He even said to all the team members:
"We don't have many supplies here, and we probably won't be able to hold out for much longer."
"While you are resting here, someone may come to you to buy supplies. Remember, do not sell your supplies to others just because you are greedy for those spiritual stones."
"The situation in the future may be even worse. We may not even have enough supplies to use, let alone share some with others."
"If anyone doesn't listen to my advice, don't blame me for not warning you in advance."
"If you have nothing to eat or drink, don't think of asking others for help."
All the team members quickly expressed that they would definitely obey and would not cause trouble for themselves.
Seeing this, Huang Laodi nodded with satisfaction.
"We will only rest here for five hours. The sooner we leave, the better. You should also go and rest early. Don't delay."
"So anxious?"
Several team members were a little dissatisfied when they heard the news. After all, traveling these days was really tiring.
The speed is almost twice as fast as before, and traveling in this environment full of yellow sand is a great test for people's body and mind.
I finally got a chance to rest for a while, but it turned out that there was only so much time.
It's still okay for people like Yu Changsheng who have a higher level of cultivation, but some of the Qi-cultivating cultivators in this team don't have such good physical strength.
But Huang Laodi's attitude was very firm.
The other people in the team did not dare to refute this. After all, what Huang Laodi had done before still gave them a huge shock.
Knowing that anyone can be missing from this team except Huang Laodi, it is indispensable.
Otherwise, none of them would be able to leave this endless desert.
After the team was disbanded, Yu Changsheng specially found Huang Laodi and asked about the situation.
After all, in the past we would rest for a day or even longer, but this time it was only five hours, which could barely be said to be enough to recover some strength for the journey.
This is enough to show that Huang Laodi doesn't want to stay here for long.
This abnormality immediately attracted Yu Changsheng's attention.
So, Yu Changsheng immediately rushed here to inquire about this matter.
Huang Laodi said:
"Don't you think about it? Because of the yellow sand, the supplies in the entire desert are very scarce. It will take at least several days to resupply. Especially the further we go in, the more difficult it will be to resupply."
"People in these places will become more extreme if they have nothing to eat or drink. Although we don't have much supplies left, at a time like this, the value of any supplies will be infinitely magnified."
"What if someone wants to take a risk?"
Upon seeing this, Yu Changsheng also understood that Huang Laodi’s worries were not unreasonable.
"In that case, I won't disturb your rest."
Yu Changsheng also turned around and left, then came to the camp again to observe the situation.
He discovered that the situation here was probably much more serious than Huang Laodi had expected, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
Many people just sat in the shade with a blank look, but their eyes were always fixed on others.
This situation immediately reminded Yu Changsheng of the hungry wolves in the mountains and forests.
These people are also in an extremely dangerous situation at this moment.
Yu Changsheng didn't dare to rest in such an environment, so he simply sat on top of the house and closed his eyes to meditate.
However, he didn't sit here quietly for long.
Then a figure was seen coming quickly to Yu Changsheng.
The man was well dressed, his entire robe was made of the finest silk.
It is a rare and good thing in this desert.
But the man's face was very pale and he looked weak.
It looked like he hadn't eaten for several days.
After the figure came in front of Yu Changsheng, he also said in a weak voice:
"Brother, can you give me a drink of water?"
Yu Changsheng looked at his expression, thought for a moment, and decided to refuse.
In a place like this, using any resources would only bring trouble to yourself.
Although Yu Changsheng himself had a lot of resources, they were more than enough for him to hold on until he left the desert.
The man also had a look of disappointment on his face, but before leaving, he seemed to have realized something.
After carefully examining Yu Changsheng's face for a while, he said:
"Brother, your team should have a lot of supplies left, right? Sell some to me. I have plenty of spirit stones." As he said that, he took out a few spirit stones from his arms and placed them in front of Yu Changsheng.
These spirit stones are more than enough to buy a lot of food and water on a normal day. Even in this desert, they are enough to buy a lot of things.
But this person only hopes that Yu Changsheng can give him some water and food.
Looking at his appearance, Yu Changsheng did feel a little bit of pity in his heart. After all, these people were also suffering from natural disasters and had done nothing wrong.
But Yu Changsheng was also very clear that at this time and in this place, exposing his things would undoubtedly be asking for trouble.
Therefore, he refused again, and a look of resentment appeared on the man's face, but it disappeared in an instant.
Soon he left without saying anything else.
After this person left, Yu Changsheng looked around again and found that many people were also staring at this place.
Each of their eyes seemed to emit a red light, making people feel uncomfortable all over.
"It seems that here, as Deacon Liu said, we have run out of ammunition and food."
Yu Changsheng thought about it and decided not to stay outside to avoid being worried.
After returning to the house, Yu Changsheng immediately set up a simple formation around him as a reminder.
Then he closed his eyes and practiced again.
Until night fell, with the stars gradually appearing in the sky, Huang Laodi immediately called everyone who was resting in each team.
"Hurry up, we are ready to leave. If anyone is delayed, don't blame me for leaving you behind."
Huang Laodi also kept urging the people in the team.
Many people were forcibly woken up even when they were still sleepy.
Even so, Huang Laodi had no mercy at all. If the children really couldn't get up, he would have someone beat them with a stick to wake them up.
Soon, everyone in the team was finally present. Although many people were very dissatisfied, they did not dare to confront Huang Laodi in this place.
After Huang Laodi counted the number of people, he immediately said:
"Let's go, don't dawdle."
The team left this place as quickly as possible under the cover of night.
And wait until everyone in the team has gone far away.
The man who had talked to Yu Changsheng before also stumbled over to Deacon Liu.
Then he said to Deacon Liu:
"Deacon Liu, are we just going to let Huang Laodi and his gang leave?"
"Look at them. They don't look like they are short of food. They must have a lot of things in their hands."
"We don't know how long it will take for the supplies from Fengxiao City to arrive. If nothing is delivered in a few days."
"Someone is going to die here, and there will be a big mess!"
"You have to think of a solution, otherwise we won't be able to survive."
After hearing this, Deacon Liu's eyes also flashed with a hint of gloom.
"What do you mean by this?"
The man said, "Deacon Liu, do I really need to explain this matter so clearly?"
"If those people don't die, we will die! Deacon Liu, for the lives of the people in our stronghold, you have to make up your mind."
Deacon Liu looked at the man, his eyes gradually becoming deeper.
At this moment, Yu Changsheng and others were still on their way non-stop.
Most people gradually woke up at this moment, but the temperature in the desert became extremely low at night.
Fortunately, this is not a big deal for the monks.
As Huang Laodi walked, he never forgot to look up to identify the direction and kept adjusting his position.
Suddenly, there were bursts of sharp noises coming from the distance.
The sound was like a woman wailing or a child crying. The piercing sound made everyone in the team shudder.
Several people hurriedly came to Huang Laodi and asked:
"Huang Laodi, what kind of monster is this?"
"Will I be in danger again?"
"Why is there so much danger in this desert? I want to go home."
Huang Laodi ignored the questions from these people and listened carefully.
The voice came from behind the team, and judging from the noise, it was getting closer.
Huang Laodi immediately felt something was wrong and said to the people in the team, "Let's go to the side and hide first."
Seeing this, the other people in the team immediately did the same and headed towards a desert on the right.
By the time everyone arrived, the sound was almost within reach.
A group of people lay on the sand slope, not daring to breathe, for fear of disturbing the sound.
Suddenly, the sharp shouting sounds around disappeared.
Only the heavy breathing sounds of a few people were left. Someone wanted to raise his head to see the situation on the other side of the sand slope, but was slapped down by Huang Laodi.
Gradually, everyone felt that everything was alright because the sound disappeared completely, perhaps it had gone far away.
"Are you okay?"
Someone muttered quietly, but at this moment, a sword energy suddenly attacked, and before the person could make a sound, his brain was cut off by the sword energy.
The sudden attack also immediately alerted everyone in the team.
Many people also used their own defensive methods.
However, no one could be seen attacking, but the corpse on the ground was real.
Everyone was in a panic.
Yu Changsheng immediately maximized his spiritual sense, but he still couldn't see anyone.
This situation also surprised Yu Changsheng.
Logically speaking, with his spiritual sense as a cultivator who has reached the stage of transformation, he would be able to immediately detect any living creature as soon as it approached.
However, whether it was the thing that just made that sharp scream, or the person who just emitted that sword energy, Yu Changsheng did not feel any news.
In this case, there is only one possibility, that is, the other party's cultivation may be far superior to Yu Changsheng.
Yu Changsheng also looked at Lin Hao and Chen Xueqing, and they both shook their heads. They also did not feel the source of the sword energy.
This also made Yu Changsheng immediately cautious, but for the time being Yu Changsheng still suppressed the idea of using the dark field for defense.
I plan to see the situation first to see if I can find the source of the sword energy as soon as possible when it attacks again.
At this moment, everyone else was also in a state of extreme tension.
Everyone was alert to the situation around them.
Huang Laodi said: "Everyone, surround the city and use camels for defense. Don't worry about the lives of these beasts at this time."
Seeing this, several people immediately followed Huang Laodi's method and formed a circle. (End of this chapter)
