Monument of Life and Death

  Chapter 567 The Disappearing Desert

  Starting from the place where the pain first appeared, Xiaolan's pain, touch, hearing... little by little returned to the body.

  Vision seems to have returned.

   Xiaolan opened his eyes and rubbed his eyes again, only to realize that he couldn't see things because he didn't open his eyes.

   is surrounded by a black, rootless, bottomless, Xiaolan can feel the solid ground under her body, as well as the moist mud on hand, the soft air in her nose carries the aroma of soil and grass buds.

  Very familiar, very familiar.

  But this smell does not belong to the ten-day banquet, nor does it belong to this reinforced concrete game venue.

  Xiaolan’s first reaction is that this is not the real world.

  Have you not returned to reality yet?

  Or to say...after you die, you will be dispatched to such a place?

   Xiaolan stood up and walked forward while carefully exploring under her feet.

  There are mud, stones, and grass blades on the ground. The breeze blows in the ears, and you can even hear the rustling of leaves.

  No...Are you blind?

No way?

   Xiaolan rubbed her eyes vigorously again.

  It doesn’t hurt, it’s not dry or dry, and it feels very healthy.

Forget it.

  Walking, the two hands outstretched forward suddenly touched a rough tree trunk, Xiaolan walked around the big tree, and then walked forward.

  It seems that this is a forest.

  After a while, the land under my feet began to turn uphill, so I should have reached the foot of a mountain.

  Xiaolan supported the invisible tree trunk and walked up the hillside.

  On the mountain, some distant echoes can be heard. Xiaolan couldn't hear what was mixed in the wind.

  If it is Baomu, it should be ok.

Thinking of Baomu, Xiaolan finally felt a little sad that he ended the game early. I don’t know how Baomu is now, whether he survived by fluke, or just like himself, he was thrown into such darkness after he died. Woods.

  Best, Baomu has already walked out of the desert.

  Xiaolan wandered in thoughts, and he peeked forward with his right foot, but it was actually empty.

  She quickly grabbed the big tree beside her, lowered her body and stepped on it.

  It’s okay, but it's downhill.

  Be careful, it’s okay...

Suddenly, Xiaolan's protruding foot stepped on a bunch of floating fallen leaves and sank in. Her body slipped, and her nails left five scratches on the tree trunk, but she still couldn't stop falling. The ending.

   Xiaolan fell to the ground, fell, rolled...

   is really bad luck.

   "Oh... my god..."

Xiaolan listened to her wailing and wailing echoes. After her back hit a sturdy tree trunk hard, she finally stopped. Xiaolan couldn't tell whether the pain was a new injury or an old injury. Anyway, it was a whole body injury. , It hurts everywhere.

  She got up awkwardly, probed with her hands and feet, and found that she had finally fallen to the foot of the mountain.

  It's still safe under the mountain.

   Xiaolan tidyed up her clothes and rubbed the bruises on her body.

  There is a nice wind in my ears.

   "Really!" Xiao Lan kicked a stone away with enthusiasm, complaining in dissatisfaction.

  "Really, true, true, true..."

  The loud echo spread.

  What the **** is this place?

   "What the **** do you want me to do?..."

   "What are you doing? What are you doing..."

   really annoying, echo is also so annoying.

   Xiaolan walked out a few steps.

   "I am the only one here, right?"

  "One person, one person, one person..."

   Xiaolan felt that she was being ridiculed.

  She limped her legs and pushed aside a clump of branches and leaves.

"……Here……"

  Her whole body, the blood in her body, and the air outside her body, seemed to freeze.

"……Here……"

  This is not what I said.

  Here, there are other people's voices.

  ***

  At first glance, this jungle looks no different from the rainforest that Baomu has encountered before, except that it has a little more than that rainforest.

  In the jungle, there are many strange flowers and weeds growing in weird colors. Orange petals and lavender rattans are swaying slightly in the wind, as if they are swearing sovereignty, threatening outsiders not to approach easily.

   Xiaolan turned to look at the sandy desert.

  You have to choose between dilemmas.

  But only if you continue to explore, can you break the game.

  Baomu avoided the dangerous stone fern under his feet and gently entered the jungle.

  There are only plants and no animals in the jungle, which makes Baomu more determined that the plants here are poisonous.

  The sound of his alone footsteps echoed between fallen leaves and mud, and suddenly, he stopped.

  Baomu's ears moved.

  The Child of Light poked his head out.

  It moved happily, and wanted to jump out of Baomu's embrace, but he held it down.

   "Shhh!—"

   rustle... rustle...

  Far away, there are other people's voices.

  Baomu remembered Xiaolan's idea, and first became vigilant.

  Besides myself, they are all enemies.

but……

  In the humid and acidic air, there was a familiar smell floating around.

  The Child of Light was the first to recognize the smell and screamed happily.

  Baomu finally remembered, the owner of this smell...

  Behind a cluster of blue-black flowers two meters high, a delicate face appeared.

   "Children of Light?"

  A Zhen's shoulder-length hair slipped to the side of her cheek, and the blue-purple petals set off the pale and thin face. Ajinbi was thinner and a little more emaciated when he was parting, but his vibrant eyes were still bright.

   "Ah Zhen!" Baomu and Kozi howled together, and ran to the boy with a bewildered look.

"Why are you here?" Ah Zhen walked out from behind the flowers. As expected, his clothes were already in tatters. I don't know what happened to him in these short days. "Huh? Why? Only you? Where is Xiaolan?"

  Baomu was finally broken by this sentence, and while choking, he told Ah Zhen what had happened in the desert.

  "A catfish oasis?" Ah Zhen's eyes widened, "You found such a desert?"

  Baomu nodded, "Every oasis represents the existence of a catfish..."

  "Where is that desert?" Ah Zhen asked hurriedly.

  Baomu froze for a moment, looked at Ah Zhen's anxious look, and slowly pointed behind him, "You... are you going to that desert?"

   "If you are not mistaken, the desert is..." Ah Zhen said halfway, suddenly changed the subject, raised his eyes and said to Baomu, "Can you take me there?"

   Baomu and Ah Zhen looked at each other deeply, and then he realized reluctantly that perhaps there was a place in his heart that was not so sensible, and he wanted to go back.

  He nodded, "I will take you."

   Baomu took Ah Zhen silently on the way he came.

  It may be due to the low air pressure caused by their tired appearance. The two were speechless all the way, Baomu didn't care much. After all, he went deep into this jungle, and the desert was waiting for them not far away...

  However, the desert is gone.
