Although I can guide the sky thunder to bombard the target, it is only a guide and cannot be as flexible and precise as controlling my own spiritual energy. Now Han Kui is chasing Lu Qingwen, and the falling thunder is very likely to deflect and knock Lu Qingwen down as well.

.

I believe that thunder has the ability to attack evil targets independently, whether it is divinity or the attraction of yin and yang. In short, this is definitely true. I have seen thunder destroying a big camphor tree with my own eyes. Now Lu Qingwen

There is also a lot of evil in her body. After triggering the thunder, will the thunder kill her and Hanba together?

I thought about the many things Lu Qingwen said when she was unconscious the night before, and her affectionate and determined eyes just now, and I hesitated. Human beings are not grass and trees, how can we be ruthless? I already felt guilty for letting her take the risk to attract drought demons just now.

I'm uneasy. If I use her as cannon fodder and bomb her to death now, I won't be able to feel at ease for the rest of my life.

With such a hesitation, I lost my close connection with the thunder and could not control it. The lightnings from the sky fell one after another. Some disappeared before reaching the ground, some fell far away, and some fell in a circle.

Near the wooden formation, some wooden piles were blown away, but no lightning fell accurately on the Drought Demon.

Hanbao was also frightened, quickly restrained his evil nature, and rushed out of the ineffective log formation in a straight line, as fast as a shadow disappearing from the dust.

After the lightning struck randomly, it no longer struck downwards, but only flashed randomly in the sky, and heavy rain poured down.

Although the power of the sky thunder did not really come into play, it still shocked Lu Qingwen and I. By the time we recovered from the panic, Hanba had disappeared.

Lu Qingwen walked over slowly in the heavy rain, looking sad and tired. She looked at me for a while and then asked: "Did I affect your spellcasting?"

I smiled bitterly and shook my head: "The sky cannot stop it, otherwise why wouldn't the lightning fall on its head, but just next to it and let it escape?"

Lu Qingwen was silent for a while and asked: "What should we do now?"

"Go to the car and change your clothes first, so you don't get cold."

Lu Qingwen walked towards the car. She didn't say much, but with her intelligence, she already knew that I didn't activate the thunder out of concern for her.

Xiaoxue was very depressed: "Huh, huh, you really know how to show mercy to women. I wonder how Miss Lin Mei feels when she finds out?"

I said calmly: "You can tell her the truth."

Xiaoxue was even more angry: "You mean she will understand you and support you, but I don't understand you and support you? Now Hanbao has run away and the Li Gua jade talisman is gone. You, you..."

I sighed: "The Drought Demon was right in front of me just now, and the sky thunder also fell, but it didn't fall on it. This means that it doesn't deserve to die. If the sky doesn't kill it, how can I kill it? Even if the sky doesn't kill it, how can I kill it?

Even if I force the thunder from the sky to strike it, I may not be able to kill it."

"Quia!" Xiaoxue said angrily.

Maybe it’s because I’ve experienced so many things that I gradually lose sight of life and death, but Xiaoxue is even more annoyed and disappointed. In fact, I want to learn from Lin Mei and learn to be content and grateful. Compared with Lu Yu and the princess, I am actually very lucky.

I'm satisfied. People decide what to do and what to do depends on God. I have tried my best. I can't achieve my goal by stepping on other people's corpses.

Lu Qingwen opened the car window and called me. She had already changed her clothes, so I returned to the car. She sat in the driver's seat and I changed clothes in the back. After changing clothes, I asked her to drive to Houjingjue Country.

Ruins, maybe Gao Feng and the two experts will come back. If not, we will go home. As for whether I want to go into the desert alone to look for Drought Demon in the future, it depends on the situation.

I sit in the carriage and do my exercises to drive away the cold and evil spirits. These unfavorable things must be removed in time, otherwise I will get sick over time. My body and spirit are not as good as before. As people get older, they must know how to take care of their bodies. .

The only thing that has not declined is probably my cultivation of Yin Yang Jue. In fact, the internal cultivation techniques of various sects will stagnate after reaching a certain level. The effect of hard work becomes weaker and weaker, and even the harder I work, the more stagnant it becomes. Ex. At this time, what affects cultivation is not hard work, but the cultivation of mind, the understanding of the way of heaven, life, and all things. Many people who have reached this level often give up everything and become the most ordinary mortals in order to understand life. of Zhendi.

Frustration and suffering are the best medicine for cleansing the soul. I did not pursue it deliberately, but in fact my character and outlook on life have undergone many changes, and many things that I could not let go of have faded away. This change is quiet. , I don’t even know when I started to change. It was only then that I realized that my body was declining. I often felt very tired and powerless, but my spiritual energy became purer.

I have a hunch that my Yin-Yang Art has reached the peak of the third level and is about to suddenly reach the fourth level! This is a state that even Master Zeng has not been able to achieve and has been achieved by few people in hundreds of years. It is enough to make people proud and proud. Exciting. But for a person who has only a few years to live and a person who cannot change his destiny no matter how hard he tries, what is there to be excited about?

None of the ancestors in the past have reached this level, so I don't know how to break through. Maybe I need a wedge? Anyway, I'm not in a hurry now, because as my strength improves, I still can't catch the Drought Demon, and I don't have much chance to defeat it.

More than an hour later, we arrived at the place that should be the ruins of Houjingjue Kingdom, but the strange thing is that we did not see the stone mountains and ruins. Could it be that we went astray? Lu Qingwen drove the car around to look for it, and circled it several times. , coupled with Xiaoxue's remote detection, we have searched dozens of miles around but there is still no shadow of the stone mountain.

We have traveled this route several times, and the compass points cannot deviate too far. So where did the stone mountains and ruins go? Although there was thunder and rain just now, the wind was not particularly strong, and it was unlikely that the entire stone mountain was covered.

We were blown here by a giant sandstorm. Two experts are said to have gone crazy here, including Gao Feng, who also disappeared nearby. Now the stone mountains and ruins have disappeared without a trace, and weird things are happening one after another.

Lu Qingwen and I looked at each other, and we both saw uneasiness in each other's eyes. The two experts may have really gone crazy after staying in the ruins for too long, and Lu Ping may have been affected by something, and the dark and evil side of his heart was exposed and magnified. And the previous archeology The team also disappeared near here. This area is too abnormal.

"Let's go back and go straight south!" I said firmly to Lu Qingwen.

"Okay." Lu Qingwen started the car, thought for a while and turned around and said, "After I go back to repair it, I will accompany you to find Hanbao!"

I smiled, noncommittal.

It was a long road and we had to take turns to rest, so I leaned on my seat to sleep. My mental and physical strength was severely exhausted again, and I needed a good sleep to recover.

It didn't take long for me to feel the car stop, and I woke up immediately. Just as Lu Qingwen looked back at me: "We ran out of gas."

"I still have it." I immediately got out of the car and asked Xiaoxue to get a bucket of gasoline and put it in the gas tank. Before the bucket of gasoline was put into the car, I suddenly heard some sounds from a very far away place, like someone singing, but

There is also a sadness that goes deep into the bones, so it feels like crying.

I looked at Lu Qingwen, who was also listening nervously. Apparently she heard the same sound.

After listening for a while, I realized that this voice was made by the same "person" as the voice we heard in the ruins of Loulan before. Although the content of crying or laughing was different, it had a similar tone and rhyme.

I am sure that the archaeological team disappeared after hearing such a sound. It was this evil thing that appeared in the ruins of Loulan. It was also this evil thing that caused the big sandstorm. It is also possible that the disappearance of the two experts and Gao Feng was this evil thing.

It is very likely that it is the source of the supernatural events in this desert including Lop Nur!

"Let's go take a look." I said to Lu Qingwen.

Lu Qingwen said hurriedly: "My grandfather told me not to go near that place. Our real purpose is to find Hanbao..."

I said solemnly: "I have to go. If my guess is correct, it has something to do with the Drought Demon. Maybe the Drought Demon will go there."

Lu Qingwen's eyes lit up: "Yes, the monster that threatened Jingjue Country back then was full of black energy when it went out. We also saw the haze and darkness it created in the ruins of Loulan. It was it that harmed Jingjue Country, the princess and the

Lu Yu, so sooner or later the drought demon that the princess turns into will seek revenge on it!"

I nodded. In fact, I had a deeper guess, but there was not enough evidence. Anyway, I had to look for it. I would know it when I saw it. The evil thing making a sound at this time was most likely trying to

Lead us there, but I have no other choice. I have to face it for the sake of the dead and those who may still be alive!

We got in the car, carefully identified the source of the sound, and drove in the general direction of the sound. Lu Qingwen, myself, and Xiaoxue were all very nervous. This evil thing was most likely more terrifying than the Drought Demon. We had seen with our own eyes the giant sandstorm it created.

, that is the energy that destroys heaven and earth.

The sound is getting clearer and clearer. This time, the sound is not sensed by the brain, but heard directly by the ears. Now I can be sure that it is crying. It is a kind of soul-summoning spell, or something similar to ancient poetry. Through specific

Singing the syllables, maybe this is a kind of "mourning" in ancient times?

A dark building appeared on the horizon in the distance. My eyesight is very good, so I could see it very clearly. It was a dilapidated small city. The walls had collapsed in many places, but the outline could still be seen. The buildings inside looked very old.

It feels older than Loulan Ruins and Jingjue Ruins, and has a different style.

Most of the ruins themselves are not black, but they give people a very dark feeling. Even the sky and the earth in that area feel black. It is like a giant beast that has just risen from the bottomless abyss, condensed with

It has the gloomiest and darkest atmosphere, but at the same time it gives people an extremely mysterious feeling. Even though they know the danger, they still want to go in and have a look.
