Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 197: Sand Bandit

Boundless desert.

A few camels walked on the sand ridge.

A faint voice came from the camel team:

"When raising pigs, choosing the right pig breed is half the battle. Those six piglets are all carefully selected to ensure they grow strong."

"Yeah."

"Sea buckthorn pigs don't pick anything. They eat everything from hay, dead vines, and broken leaves. They also dig through the sand to look for scorpions, sandworms, and small lizards."

Dahan split his lips and tilted his head to look at Piggy.

Dahan wore a brown coat.

There are six large pockets sewn on the coat, each containing a piggy.

Back.

San Niu’s hoofs were wrapped with four magic weapons - camel paws.

Lu Tong sat on Sanniu’s back and said, “Si’er, is the direction right?”

Dian Si'er took the compass and map and said, "Sir, it's true so far. But if we go deeper for about a hundred miles, there will be magnetite mixed in the sand, which may cause interference."

He looked up at the sky, took out a water-patterned bowl, and poured mana into it.

The water mist condenses on the bottom of the bowl.

Ten breaths later, the water submerged the third water pattern at the bottom.

"Let's watch while walking."

In the desert, the terrain is weird.

There seems to be no difference between the sand dunes. And when a gust of wind blew, it changed its appearance.

Only an old man who has spent his whole life hanging out in the sand and often going in and out of the desert can tell the direction clearly.

Lu Tong asked Erhu to find a guide.

After searching for a long time, I found the yellow-faced monk "Stone in the Sand" who was selling piglets.

This man is very talented. Every year he chases wild demon sandback pigs in the desert and breeds them to his own sows.

After walking for a long time, a six-foot-tall dead tree appeared under the dune.

Sha Zhongshi raised his arm, swung it a few times, turned around and walked towards the dead tree.

He turned to look at Dian Si'er.

When you go out, you must be on guard against others.

Dian Si'er lowered his head and searched for a moment, then said: "Master, that's right. That tree is a river, which can replenish water."

Stop under the tree.

Sha Zhongshi untied the camels, led them together, and took out the large water tank.

Then walked to the tree and pulled out a long SoftBank tube.

The silver tube was inserted into the tree trunk, and a thin stream of water slowly flowed out.

"If you don't have any water, quickly replenish it. After passing here to the next river, it will take at least a day and a half. You may not be able to survive in the middle."

Dian Si'er and Er Hu immediately went to get water.

Although I had brought a lot of water, spiritual liquid, and wine before coming here, I still felt uneasy after hearing this.

Lu Tong also frowned and asked, "Is there any danger behind?"

Sha Zhongshi smiled, raised his hand and pointed to the sky, saying: "It's better to lose money and eliminate disaster."

He looked up.

In the sky, on one side is the sun, and the dazzling white light occupies less than half of the sky.

On the other side is the sky.

The sky is very high and very empty, with only a few thin clouds and one or two black spots between the clouds.

The harpy watching the wind and watching.

He stared at the black dot, then looked away after a moment.

"Who are they?"

"Sand bandits, gold diggers, passing merchants, everyone is there. No one cares about it anyway. If you are strong enough, you can do it."

After the camels finished drinking and had enough rest, the group set off again.

In the afternoon, the sun shines brighter.

Including San Niu, everyone was covered with a veil made of gauze and silk.

Being prepared in advance will save you a lot of trouble.

Lu Tong took out the water pattern bowl again and poured in mana.

After ten breaths, the water will be close to the bottom water pattern.

"Wow~"

"Woohoo~Woohoo~"

A strange scream came.

He looked sideways.

A group of figures emerged from another sand ridge separated by a sand dune.

Everyone rides a horse.

The horse's hooves are nailed with sand palms, and its back is covered with yellow clothes.

The same applies to people, with their heads covered with bamboo hats, their faces covered, and their bodies wrapped tightly.

Only a knife and sword were exposed, reflecting a dazzling light in the sun.

"Si'er?"

Dian Si'er's six eyes stared at him, the silver dots in his eyes shrinking to the size of a pinray.

"Twenty-one, the leader is the foundation builder. The penultimate one is also possible. His horse is very powerful and his hooves are completely planted in the sand."

The cavalry followed several dozen feet away.

One of the riders left the team, brandished a long knife, and shouted from a distance: "Stop! Stop!"

Sha Zhongshi turned around.

He waved his hand and shouted: "Keep walking."

After a while, this person moved to the front.

After talking to Sha Zhongshi, he ran to Lu Tong and said, "Yan Guo Liu Mao! Ten taels of silver per person!"

Lu Tong took off the outer silk cover and said, "Is your leader building a foundation?"

"Yes!"

"Where is the second leader?"

"Yes!"

"Three leaders?"

"None of your business! Get the money quickly!"

Lu Tong shook his head, raised his right palm, and pinched four wind blades as thin as cicada wings between his fingers.

A wind blade disappeared instantly.

Immediately afterwards, the long knife in the opponent's hand was split into two. The bright tip of the knife fell and burrowed into the sand.

"It turns out to be just a flower display."

"You..."

"Tell your leader that if you want money, come and get it yourself."

The group continued to set off.

The cavalry followed more than ten feet away, leaving one behind to continue following, while the rest disappeared just as they came.

At night.

A leeward sand nest.

Dian Si'er took out the lying willow tree and spread it on the sand.

Dry willow, a plant in the desert.

Like moss, it grows against the sand.

One end of the tree has roots deep into the ground, and the other end has willow branches spread out, which can be used as a blanket to fix the sand.

Pitch the tent on the willow branches.

Lu Tong walked to the camel and asked, "Who were that group during the day?"

"Sand bandits, people who look like bald dragons."

Sha Zhongshi did not set up a tent and planned to sleep with the camel.

"Are you coming again?"

"It's possible. My eyes are still watching. If the Bald Dragon thinks it can be taken, he will take action."

"How many people are there in Bald Dragon?"

"Balong started experimenting with golden elixirs ten years ago. He has one at the second level of foundation building, two at the first level of foundation building, and less than a hundred at the Qi level."

He thought for a moment and then asked: "Do you think you will take action?"

"Look at you."

Sha Zhongshi raised his head, his eyes yellow and cloudy, like a handful of sand mixed in a camel's eyes.

Lu Tong nodded, understanding what he meant.

It all depends on his methods.

The Bald Dragon will take action if it thinks it can be taken.

After a while.

In the sand nest, Dian Si'er lit a bonfire and prepared to cook.

Lu Tong quietly left and walked out across the sand dunes.

Following the ridge ~IndoMTL.com~ I searched for half a stick of incense, and finally saw some light.

A young man with unshaven beard was lying on the leather and covered with a quilt.

A small fire next to it.

On the fire, a small pot was hung.

He walked over, and the tiger's claws sank into the gravel, making a slight rustling sound.

"Who?"

The young bandit jumped up and drew his long knife.

After seeing Lu Tong, the young bandit's expression changed drastically. He took out a bag from his waist, blew it with his mouth, then turned around and ran away.

A large area of ​​flying sand covers an area of ​​two feet.

Lu Tong opened his mouth and spit out three qi spiritual smoke to block the wind and sand.

Two fire dragons emerged from under the tiger's claws, and they caught up with him and pinched the back of the bandit's neck.

"Ah, forgive me..."

He exerted a little force with his fingers, and several bones cracked, and the begging for mercy disappeared instantly.

Drag the body back to the fire.

Lu Tong placed the corpse on the leather, took out a small ingot of silver, and placed it on the chest of the corpse.

Take a few steps back and rise into the air.

On top of the head, a wind knife that was one foot and a half long condensed.

He raised his right arm, his palm immersed in the blade, swung his arm down, slashed twice, one horizontally and one vertically, and then turned around and left.

Behind the back, a small fire was still burning.

Two lines of blood appeared on the body.

The blood flowed out and soaked the clothes, and then touched the silver ingot.

The small silver ingot shook imperceptibly, then split into four identical pieces.

……

The campfire.

After the group had eaten, Dian Si'er prepared to go to watch the night.

Lu Tong shouted: "Erhu, Dahan, you guys keep watch."

"Yes."

Dian Si'er shook his head and said: "Master, I will take the boss and the others with me, and more..."

"No, come in and sleep."

He turned and got into the tent.

In the desert, it is hot to death during the day and freezing to death at night.

Sleeping with someone in your arms will keep you warm.
