   Chapter 703 Two hundred eighty

  grunt-

   In a jar on the fire, the thick soup boiled.

  Lu Li sat by the fire, put an inscription bullet into the chamber of the psychic gun, and closed it with a click.

   a little bit——

  Put the psychic gun beside him, Lu Li picked up another psychic gun, unloaded the chamber, and repeated the previous actions.

   On the other side are two psychic guns and scattered inscription bullets.

   Loaded the four psychic guns with bullets, collected the scattered bullets, and Lu Li took off the clay pot.

  The boiling sound disappeared, and the whimpering wind outside the window gradually became clear, with the subtle sound of sand and stones hitting the glass.

   Pour the broth into a wooden bowl, and Lu Li ate quietly.

  The sand is blocked from the outside, and the warm fire and hot soup make people feel comfortable.

   Only Lu Li was the only one in this town.

   After eating, Lu Li prepared for the upcoming trip.

Check the compass and parchment map and put them in your arms; hang four psychic guns on the inside of your coat one after another; hang a full water bladder around your waist, and hang a "lighthouse" and a windproof oil lamp on the side; unlock your sanity The counter, put on the neck closest to the ear; pick up the shard of redemption and put it close to the body.

  Call——

   A pot of wet soil fell, burying the fire.

  In the hut that suddenly became dark, Lu Li put on a cloak, the shadow hid his face, and pushed open the door.

  The wind rushed into the house, the whimpering wind suddenly became clear, and the cloak stirred.

   The sky was dim and dust was surging at low altitudes, and the visibility was less than a few miles.

  Lulli walked into the crowded and bustling street, and his figure gradually disappeared into the wind and sand.

   Leaving the town, Lu Li put the compass in his hand and lowered his head to check every once in a while to avoid getting lost in the wind and sand.

  The two oil lamps on Lu Li's waist were driven by the wind and the pace, with a crisp sound of "bang bang bang" along the way.

   The sandstorm was not too big, but it still slowed Lu Li's speed. At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sky covered by sand and dust had become drowsy, and Lu Li had only walked less than 40 miles.

   A village is just two or three miles ahead.

  The gradually dissipating wind and sand allowed Lu Li to see the hazy town in the distance, and the yellow sand at the end of the northern horizon, at the foot of the World Ridge Mountains.

   There will be a sandstorm coming.

   On the mound a mile outside the town, Lu Li stopped and looked out. The smoke from the kitchen rose faintly in the calm village, and the dust storm behind it was closer and clearer than the beginning.

   In terms of bringing terror, natural disasters are no less weird.

   Obviously, entering the village to avoid the sandstorm is the best choice at this time, but Lu Li stopped for some reason.

   Looking at it from a distance for a while, Lu Li turned and walked away, walking far from the periphery of the village to the Gobi in the distance.

   There may be a place to hide.

  The sandstorm was approaching, and the suspended sand was blowing again, and it was even more chilling, and there was a dense crackling sound on the cloak.

  The dust storm in the north was dyed a terrifying dark red, and lightning storms surged inside.

   Lu Li, who entered the Gobi, began to look for a depression that could shelter from the wind.

  …

   Outside the dark cave, the sand blasted sharply.

  The gravel poured into the cave was piled up in front of the cave entrance.

  咣咣壷——

   In the increasingly sharp whistling sound, a crisp crash suddenly sounded, getting closer and closer.

  Call——

  A figure walked into the cave with sand in it.

The    figure lifted his cloak, glanced across the low cave, took off the oil lamp hanging on his waist and lit it.

  Light gradually fills every part of the cave.

  The cave is only three or four meters deep. The rock wall has scratches from wild beasts. In the depths there are several firewoods, straw mats, and a bunch of extinguished bonfires.

  This was once a wolf's den or other carnivore's den, which was later occupied by villagers from a nearby village.

   The whistling sound outside the cave's entrance seemed to scream, and the dark red sandstorm made people feel uneasy even if they were hiding in a sheltered place.

  Lu Li went to the depths of the nest, put the oil lamp in the sand, and made a bonfire with the remaining firewood around, but instead of lighting it, he took out the stone badge and crushed it.

   After a few minutes, a silhouette emerged from the outside wind and sand and rushed into the nest.

   It was an elderly lone wolf, like Lu Li, who came in to avoid the sandstorm.

   Lu Li put his palm on the psychic gun in his arms and watched the lone wolf quietly.

   Strangely, the lone wolf did not attack Lu Li. Raising the wolf's head and sniffing in the direction of Lu Li, he curled up on the edge of the nest, ignoring Lu Li.

   After a while, the merchant bowed his head and walked into the cave.

  Lone Wolf immediately got up, showing a low growl that was the opposite of Lu Li, grinning his sharp teeth and threatening the incoming businessman.

  The businessman ignored Lone Wolf's warning and came to Lu Li.

   "Did you find it?"

   Lu Li looked away from the wolf.

   "There are no séance ropes and new evil spirits in other places," said the merchant.

  Lu Li nodded softly and bought some food, water and firewood from the merchant.

   Thirty minutes later, the merchant returned with the goods, and Lu Li also lit the fire.

   The nighttime temperature difference in the Badlands is not as dramatic as that of the desert, but it is just as cold. It is necessary to ignite to bring light and warmth while dispelling coveted fires.

   Worried that the scent would induce the wolf's animal nature, Lu Li didn't bake the can, and just opened it to eat.

   However, Lone Wolf was still lured by the scent, got up and approached Lu Li, arched the back of Lu Li's hand with his dry nose, lay down on the spot and turned over, revealing his softer abdomen.

   obviously belongs to the wolves' way of ingratiating themselves.

   It is not hostile because of human nature? Is it a wolf kept by the residents of the nearby village? it is……

  Lu Li thought, moved his palm away from the handle of the psychic gun, and gave the wolf a can of canned food and some water.

  The lone wolf finished eating, rubbed Lu Li's trousers with his wet nose, and returned to the lair to lie down.

   After eating, Lu Li unfolded the sheepskin map.

   Determine your location through a small town two or three miles away - 50 miles ahead is the San Les Canyon, and then pass through the narrow desert corridor and the old river plain. When it is silent, the oasis where the main body is located is in front.

   The sandstorm outside has not weakened, and the gravel at the entrance of the cave has piled up into sand dunes several centimeters high.

  Because of this wind and sand, the strange fog was rarely able to permeate this land.

  The last ray of light from the outside world disappeared, Lu Li slept in his clothes, and a wolf and a wolf peacefully spent the night in the lair.

   The next morning, Lu Li woke up.

  The gravel piled up at the entrance of the cave is dozens of centimeters high, almost burying the entrance of the cave. A line of beast tracks stretched out.

   Lone Wolf left.

   This dispelled some kind of speculation in Lu Li's heart.

  Lu Li cleaned the sand at the entrance of the cave and came outside. The early morning wind blew through under the gloomy sky, and the outline of a sandstorm loomed at the southern end.

  The dust storm that raged all night is gone.

  Lu Li squeezed the gravel badge, returned to the nest, filled the dying fire with hay branches, and prepared breakfast.

The    merchant arrived soon after, and Lu Li bought some more stone badges and asked it about Anna's whereabouts.

   "A new evil spirit has appeared in Ke'an De Jingdian City in the Lord's Continent."

   replied the merchant.

   "The victim was the daughter of a baron. Her abnormal behavior was noticed, and she soon melted into a shadow and disappeared."
