Main Text Chapter 524: Ascetic Monk
Master Miao's eyes subconsciously focused on their chests.
The two female seniors didn't care about this, and seemed to be used to it, because this was an inevitable problem for women disguised as men. Once men and women found out that they were disguised as men, their eyes would quickly go to their breasts, not the two. People like to pretend to be men, but given their condition, they are easily recognized.
Proving their cultivation, the two immediately helped each other organize their masks, rode out again, abandoned Lord Miao, and went their separate ways.
Miao Yi, who was riding alone on his mount, looked at the one that disappeared in the east, and then at the one that disappeared in the west. He hesitated to speak. Finally, he looked at the newly dug sand pit below, and then looked up at the stars in the sky. Identify the direction and move forward alone, towards the next gathering point of this group of people.
He was very cautious along the way and really didn't want the killer to show up.
Perhaps it was his sincerity that moved God. The killer really did not appear again, and a year passed...
The roar of the dragon suddenly stopped, and the flaming unicorn gun was launched. Miao Yi, who was sitting on the dragon colt, turned sideways and struck with the gun. The sharp gun tip pierced into the body of a huge scorpion, and a high temperature stewed into the giant scorpion. Inside the body, the black and shiny shell of the giant scorpion immediately changed color.
This is a ferocious beast that is a specialty of the Liuyun Sand Sea. It is called the 'Liuyun Sand Scorpion'. It is a scorpion that is as big as a carriage. It has a large claw, an underturned stinger, and is extremely poisonous. It likes to hunt everything that can be hunted. The reason for killing the prey is because there is not much food in the desert. If you encounter the prey, you will not miss it regardless of life or death.
There is also another ferocious beast called the "Sea Monkey" that is native to the sea of flowing clouds and sand. It has a ferocious appearance, sharp teeth and claws, and is extremely powerful, especially in the sea below. It especially likes to sneak attack those who enter the sea below. Sometimes it is also hidden in the sand. When someone passes by, its claws will suddenly pop out and pull you into the sea water below, and then kill you with the advantage of being in the sea. A large group of people besieged him, including many who had become masters through cultivation.
This team has lost more than half of its troops because of these monsters, but the news was sent back. Officials will help replenish the team as soon as possible.
The 'Flowing Cloud Sand Scorpion' in front of him was not that big. A few months ago, Miao Yi killed a demon scorpion that was as big as a small house and obtained a first-grade demon pill.
It is said that among the five emperors of Liuyunshahai, there were Scorpion Emperor and Monkey King, who had extraordinary cultivation, but they fell into the hands of Demon Saint Yun Aotian because of the incident at Fengyun Inn.
Pull out the sharp tip. There was a burst of slashing, barbs connected with hooks, and a pair of large claws flew up. Miao Yi waved his sleeves to collect them, and then circled around the giant scorpion's body, constantly swinging his gun to smash the hard shell. The parts that were smashed were all meaty places, and the smell of meat immediately overflowed.
A large handful of white salt was sprinkled on the back of the giant scorpion. When he sat down, Longju immediately went to bite it, licking a mouthful of salt from time to time, eating with relish.
Two 'Blue-feathered Swallows' were also released and joined the pecking process.
Miao Yi pulled out the claws he had just collected and cracked the hard shell. Open the shell and immediately reveal the plump and tender meat, which smells delicious. Cut a piece with a knife and lightly dip it in salt, put it into your mouth and chew it. It is delicious, smooth and refreshing. It is really a delicacy in the world.
He sat on the back of his mount to eat, while the dragon colt sat down to eat around the giant scorpion's body, plus two 'Blue Feathered Swallows'. It can be said that we are blessed together.
The dragon colt was panicked at first when it saw the 'Floating Cloud Sand Scorpion', but now it knows it's something delicious and wants to chase it. It's life-threatening if you chase it, and it's addictive.
Miao Yi, who was enjoying himself happily, looked at the mount that was chewing up the shell and gobbling it up. He could vaguely see Heitan's demeanor from it, and he couldn't help shaking the knife in his hand and said in a loud voice: "Damn fat man, you are not lucky!"
After a while, Wu Zhen and Wu Ming also came on horseback due to the news of fighting. Miao Yi pulled out another claw, broke it off and threw it away, "Two beautiful seniors, this is specially reserved for you."
The two of them rolled their eyes at him, took the things, and then turned around to avoid getting too close. Judging from the sound of the people immersed in processing, they knew that they were also cracking the hard shell on the feet to taste. Who doesn't like the delicious food?
After the two ate it once, they fell in love with it.
Miao Yi looked around and laughed. He had always wanted to make friends with the two beautiful twin seniors, but most of the time they kept a distance. Occasionally they bumped into each other with the team, and it was difficult to have a chance to talk to them.
A year has passed. In fact, Wu Zhen and Wu Ming also doubt whether the murderer will show up again, but due to their responsibilities, they have no choice like Miao Yi. As long as the superiors don't let go, they won't be able to leave.
Miao Yi, who had eaten and drank enough, patted his belly, licked his lips, and burped. This delicious meal could be said to be his reward for breaking through to the sixth level of Qinglian. Just a few days ago, his cultivation finally Breakthrough again.
The speed of refining the wish power beads every day has also been increased from seven to eight. The consumption of wish power beads to break through from the sixth level of Qinglian to the seventh level is estimated to be nearly 82,000, which means it will cost almost a month. It would take twenty-eight years before another breakthrough was possible, and that was without interruption.
The current situation is obviously not good. We should have been able to break through to the sixth level of Qinglian half a year ago, but it was delayed for half a year.
A spiritual vulture flew in the air. Miao Yi stretched out his arms to catch it and took out the jade ultimatum in its leg. It was from Qian'er and Xue'er.
"You've caught up with me again, let's go!" Miao Yi shook his arm, and the vulture immediately fluttered its wings and pounced on the giant scorpion, working hard.
Miao Yi, on the other hand, was slowly checking Qian'er and Xue'er's routine letters to report that they were safe. Now, the two parties regularly exchanged letters once a month, so they could be regarded as reporting each other's safety.
The situation in Shuixing Palace was just like that, and there was almost no worry about safety. Everything in Shuiyun Mansion was normal. It was just that Sikong Wuwei and Zhao Fei asked several times where Miao Yi had gone. The two realized that something was wrong, because the mansion masters under them had also disappeared, which made the two women very embarrassed.
That was the situation in the letter. The two women said at the end that they missed him and tried to ask if they could come to see him.
This was obviously not possible! Miao Yi shook his head as he looked at the jade tablet. After thinking for a while, he decided to write a letter to Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei as well. He took out two jade tablets and wrote down similar contents, asking the two not to embarrass Qian'er and Xue'er, saying that he was fine, but he had something difficult to tell them now, and he would tell them in detail after returning. The two mansion masters under the other two had no chance to go back, so they were asked to make other arrangements and not wait.
Then he wrote a reply to the two women, wrote some words to reassure the two women, and asked the two to forward the other two letters to Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei.
He jumped off his mount and waited until the eagle was full before stuffing the three letters into the foot tube and letting the eagle fly again.
Seeing the eagle disappear in the distance, Miao Yi sighed with his hands behind his back. He also missed Qian'er and Xue'er, but what was there here? There was only a desert that stretched as far as the eye could see. There was no sandstorm or monster attack, and no one to accompany him to be gentle and lingering. There was a pair of beautiful twins, but it was unrealistic to ask them to sleep with him. If he dared to show any intention, he would probably be beaten into a meat paste. Their cultivation was too high.
"Damn it! Where is that damn ghost ship? If I keep going like this, I will never be able to break through to the seventh level of Qinglian. If it never appears, I will never be able to practice in peace and hang around here? Stop eating, go find the ghost ship!"
Miao Yi cursed, put away the 'Blue Feathered Swallow', climbed onto his mount, and looked around with energy, searching forward all the way.
The vast world stretches as far as the eye can see. It is unknown whether the heavens have heard his complaints, but one person has certainly heard them.
Lao Bai's elegant figure appeared under a coconut tree, staring at the roasted and eaten giant scorpion, and slowly closed his eyes.
Although Miao Yi was complaining, Lao Bai had to admit that Miao Yi made sense. This aimless search was indeed not good for Miao Yi's practice. It was a complete waste of time. If there were other benefits, it would be fine, but he could only wander around in the desert.
Lao Bai opened his arms to embrace the world, closed his eyes and slowly rose into the air, his green cloak and white shirt fluttering, and the whole person quietly rotated in the air...
The setting sun was dim, and Miao Yi suddenly stopped his running mount urgently, looking ahead with a little vigilance.
In the desert ahead, an old man in plain clothes holding a Zen stick and wearing a bamboo hat was walking towards Miao Yi.
It is impossible for a mortal to appear here, nor is it possible for him to walk here on foot. Miao Yi, who had relaxed his vigilance for more than half a year, immediately became highly alert. Regardless of whether the other party was a killer who came to kill him on purpose, it was entirely possible that he would take advantage of the situation to rob him.
Swish! He quickly put on his armor, held the Kirin Spear in his hand, and quickly ran to the sand dune on the side to avoid a direct encounter with the other party.
The old man who passed slowly and slowly looked up at Miao Yi on the sand dune. He had a white face and no beard, a kind expression, deep eyes, a slight smile and a nod, modest and polite. He had no extra interactions with Miao Yi, and continued to move forward with his Zen stick in his hand.
The old man walked peacefully and piously, looking like an ascetic monk, harmless to people and animals, but Miao Yi still turned around and remained vigilant.
Only after the other party was far away did Miao Yi breathe a sigh of relief and continue to move forward. However, at this moment, a loud "boom" sounded from behind. Miao Yi suddenly looked back and saw sand and dust bursting, water columns rushing into the sky, and it seemed that some huge monster broke out of the ground.
A white bow emerged from the sky amidst the rolling dust.
Ship! Big ship! Big white ship? Miao Yi himself didn't know when he turned his mount, and subconsciously drove it over. When he realized that the two sides were getting closer, he quickly stopped.
It was indeed a big white ship, a hundred feet high and a hundred feet wide. It was hard to tell how long it was from the front.
The ship seemed to be carved from a giant white jade stone. It looked majestic and magnificent in the sunset. The ship's building was magnificent and ancient. I don't know what was in the ship's building. It was moving forward in the vast desert with a dull friction sound.
It wasn't the ship itself that was sliding, but there were countless iron chains on the hull, and there were countless people around the ship. The iron chains tied those people, and those people dragged the iron chains, pulling the ancient ship across the desert.
