When Tian Zhen woke up again, he felt that he was being carried on someone's back and was slowly moving forward.
When he woke up, he looked at the person carrying him. It was Zhang Muzhi, who had gone to find Bick.
At this moment, Tian Zhen was still very weak. He felt Tian Zhen wake up behind him. He handed over a water bottle and said,"You're awake?"
After taking a sip of water, he felt a little more energetic.
"Where's Xiao Hua?"
Tian Zhen asked weakly. Hearing this, Zhang Muzhi said,"Isn't it at the back?"
Hearing this, Innocent tried his best to look back, but other than the desert, there was no one.
"No, there's no one behind us!" Tian Zhen asked anxiously.”
Zhang Muzhi smiled and said,""What's below?"
At this moment, Innocent lowered his head and realized that Zhang Muzhi was carrying Innocent on his back. He was grabbing Xiao Hua's ankles and dragging him forward.
Seeing this, Innocent wanted to say something, but his strength had not fully recovered. He stammered for a long time but could not say a word.
Zhang Muzhi guessed the question that he really wanted to ask and took the initiative to explain,""There's really no other way. If I carry you, I won't be able to carry him. I can only drag him along like this!”
"Where's Bick?"
Zhang Muzhi shook his head and said,""I couldn't find it. When I went back, only the car was left. I searched the surroundings but couldn't find it.”
"Don't worry about him, let's go meet up with Ning and the others first!”
After Zhang Muzhi finished speaking, he carried Innocence on his back and dragged Littleflower forward. He brought the two of them and walked in the desert. Zhang Muzhi didn't feel tired at all.
Soon, the three of them found Ning and the others. They were sitting together. One of Ning's team members was arguing with Zhuo Ma's grandson, Zha Xi.
"I think you guys are doing this on purpose. How can people who live around the desert not know the pattern of sandstorms? You guys are deliberately sending us to our deaths, right?”
Zha Xi was very angry when he heard this. He said,"Are you suspecting us? Are you suspecting me and my grandmother?”
When the man heard this, his face was unfriendly as he said,"Who knows what you guys are up to? The route to find Tamutuo was set by your grandmother. You knew there was a desert here, so why didn't you take a detour and insist on passing through here?”
Hearing this, Zha Xi defended himself." What do you know? This desert is the only way to find Tamutuo. If we don't go through here, we won't be able to reach Tamutuo!"”
"Moreover, the desert changes every day. In the past, this was still a river. Who knew that it would become a desert now!”
Ning's subordinates wanted to argue, but Zhang Muzhi stood up and said,""Zha Xi is right!"
After saying that, Zhang Muzhi raised his head and gestured to the little brother. The little brother took out the dark gold ancient knife on his back and handed it to Zhang Muzhi. Zhang Muzhi seemed to be able to easily cut the yellow sand in a straight line within three meters.
Zhang Muzhi returned the ancient knife and pointed at the traces of weathering in front of him."Look, these are the traces left behind by the riverbed. Zha Xi has indeed been leading us along the riverbed, and they are moving upstream. If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to find some ancient ruins soon.”
"That's right, that's right. This big brother is right. If it weren't for this sandstorm, we would have already arrived at Devil Town!”
"Devil Town?"
This new and terrifying name immediately attracted everyone's attention. When Innocent heard this, he was also stunned. Then, he asked,"Why is it called this name?"
"It's a large area of rocks," Zha Xi explained."It's said that there used to be stone castles everywhere!”
"Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a city there. The people in the city were hardworking and rich, but for some reason, the people there changed and began to indulge in sensual pleasures and scheming.”
"Is it because of the demons?”
Zha Xi shook his head and continued,"Later, in order to save them, the heavenly deity became a beggar. However, not only was he not treated well, he was even humiliated by the people there.
"In his anger, the heavenly god summoned heavenly lightning and heavenly flames. The heavenly lightning struck down the castle, and everyone was pressed under it. The heavenly flames didn't stop day and night, burning people's bodies and sins!”
"This is just a legend, right?"
Ning's subordinate questioned. Who knew that Zha Xi would shake his head like a rattle-drum when he heard this. His eyes were filled with fear as he said,"It's true. Every night, there would be wails from there. Those are the screams of sinners who were burned by the heavenly fire!”
"What?"
Hearing this, Ning's subordinate, who had just quarreled with Zha Xi, couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and pointed at Zha Xi,"I knew you guys had bad intentions. How can you bring us there?”
Zha Xi's face turned red when he heard that. He shouted,"Who wants to take you there? That's the devil's territory. We don't go there. We'll only stay around.”
"Alright!"
"What are you arguing about? Bick and the others haven't been found yet, and you're still in the mood to argue!" Ning shouted.”
Everyone shut up. At this moment, Innocent suggested,""Bick has a walkie-talkie with him. The signal here isn't very good. Why don't we try calling them from the mountain?”
Ning shook her head and said,"It's not that I haven't tried, but I still can't contact him!”
