The strongest heavenly master

Chapter 47 The Living Map in the Desert

As soon as the petals entered the mouth, before Gao Xing could chew them, they melted like snowflakes.

At first, there was an icy cold breath, and then it turned into a warm current, lingering between the lips and teeth, and soaking into the throat.

It's hard to describe the feeling of the strange fragrance in my mouth.

In an instant, Gao Xing understood why folklore said that eating a thousand-year-old snow lotus would make one become a fairy.

Because at this moment, he had a strange idea of ​​soaring in the daytime.

The whole person became extremely ethereal, as if blending with the surrounding air, and slowly suspended in mid-air, flying towards the depths of the white clouds.

Of course, this is an illusion.

But it feels really amazing.

It seems that all the pores on the body are expanding infinitely, absorbing the aura of the Kunlun Glacier.

Before he knew it, Gao Xing suddenly stepped down and sat cross-legged in the snow, with his eyes slightly closed, his eyes looking at his nose and his nose looking at his heart, and he entered a delicate state, completely forgetting the passage of time.

"Hey, what are you doing? We're all so worried."

After an unknown amount of time, Xiaodie's anxious voice suddenly came from next to his ear, and Gao Xing woke up with a start.

Opening his eyes, Xiaodie, Hu Bayi, and Xueli Yang were looking at him in bewilderment.

"Uh...why are you here again?"

Hu Bayi couldn't help but smiled wryly: "We've been waiting for you below, but the wait lasted for two hours...Xiaodie was in a hurry, and insisted on coming up to find you. We were worried, so we came up with her."

Gao Xing was shocked.

It's been two hours?
Then, he glanced at Xiaodie with complicated eyes, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to care about me."

"Hmph, I don't care about you, it's just...we are companions, if we come out together, we will go back together."

This girl is obviously duplicity and stubborn.

But it makes sense, after all, they are a team.

"I'm fine, I just realized something for a while, so I sat down and meditated for a while. Alright, let's go down the mountain."

"Where's the big guy? What happened?"

When going down the mountain, Xiaodie couldn't help asking.

Gao Xing didn't say anything about the snow ape, and said casually, "It's nothing, I went around the mountain and got rid of it."

"Phew, that's great, you don't know, we are worried to death at the foot of the mountain."

Not long after, the group gathered together again.

Everyone asked about it, and Gao Xing repeated what he said earlier.

"It's fine, let's go, let's go down the mountain quickly and get to the small town before dark."

It was dark when we reached the town.

After a night's rest, the next day, the group transferred to a car and set off for the next stop.

In the car, everyone fell asleep.

Gao Xing seemed to be sleeping with his eyes squinted, but in fact, his energy was better than ever.

This is the credit of the Millennium Snow Lotus.

Until now, the efficacy of the snow lotus has not been fully digested, and the mysterious power is still pouring into the body, which makes people very excited.

Gao Xing could clearly feel that the millennium snow lotus brought him an effect somewhat similar to Jade Pill.

In other words, it is an all-round improvement.

The zhenqi in the dantian became extremely active, the body became extremely light, the mind was exceptionally clear, and the senses also improved significantly.

In short, the whole body is comfortable, just like being soaked in hot springs in the ice and snow, and it feels like a fairy.

The thousand-year-old snow lotus really deserves its reputation.

It just swallowed a petal, wouldn't it be better if the whole flower was swallowed?
Of course, Gao Xing just wanted to think about it, and didn't intend to devour the whole plant.

Just like the thousand-year-old ginseng, if you eat a piece of it to strengthen your body, or eat a plant, you may die of bleeding...

This is called haste makes waste.

After more than a day of driving, I finally arrived at a small town on the edge of the desert.

This small town can be regarded as the last supply camp to enter the Taklamakan Desert, and further forward, there is no man's land.

Therefore, Gao Xing and his party stayed here temporarily to make final preparations.

After all, the Taklamakan Desert is the second largest mobile desert in the world, with an area of ​​more than 30 square kilometers, larger than many countries.

The desert itself is full of dangers, and the quicksand in the Taklamakan Desert is even more dangerous.

If you are unlucky and step into quicksand, there is almost no possibility of survival.

In short, when entering this desert, one has to face water shortage, food shortage, wild animal attack, sandstorm, quicksand swallowing, getting lost, mental disorder...all known and unknown situations.

Over the years, I have never heard of anyone who can come and go freely in this desert.

Even the camels, known as the "ships of the desert" who are best at walking in the desert, have lost their lives in the Taklamakan Desert.

All in all, it's an eerie desert.

Even the residents on the edge of the desert dare not step in easily.

"Old Hu, this desert is too big, and the terrain changes at any time, and it's the windy season, so our group may get lost..."

In the evening, Shirley Yang found Hu Bayi to discuss the next itinerary.

"Ok!"

Hu Ba nodded slightly.

"I've thought about what you said, so we need to find a guide."

The next day, Hu Bayi found a local comrade-in-arms and asked if there was any good local guide to take them into the desert.

"Old Hu, don't look at us living here, but there are not many people who really dare to go deep into the desert. In addition, it is the wind season now, and the danger is even greater..."

"But we still have to go in during the windy season, help and think of something."

The comrade-in-arms thought for a while, and sighed: "If you insist on looking for it, I am afraid that only one person will dare to take you in. However, this person is quite greedy and will definitely take the opportunity to blackmail you."

Through the explanation of his comrades, Hu Bayi learned that this man was an old man whose real name was rarely mentioned, and everyone called him "An Liman".

Uighur means "living map in the desert".

So, Hu Bayi found Shirley Yang and explained the situation to her.

After all, when it comes to spending money, she must nod.

"Come on, let's talk to him first."

The town is not big, and soon they found An Liman who was feeding the camels.

Looking at his appearance, this old man is not like an ordinary person. He has a vicissitudes of life, bright eyes, and a demeanor of careful calculation.

Hearing the intention, An Liman immediately shook his head: "No, no, it's the windy season, you are looking for the ancient city of Jingjue, you want to enter the black desert, God will blame you..."

Shirley Yang explained: "Uncle, we just want Feng Ji to go in, so you can set a price."

"No, no, no, the black storm is very dangerous, and my camel will get lost..."

"Uncle An Liman, how about I buy all of your camels, and when you come back, the camels will still be yours?"

In order to impress the old man, Shirley Yang also spent a lot of money and proposed an attractive condition.

Sure enough, An Li was very tempted.

After pondering for a while, he finally nodded reluctantly: "Okay..."

After finishing the guide, the group began to get busy, preparing water bags, dry food, medicine and other necessary supplies.

After everything was ready, finally, he set off in a mighty way and stepped into the vast desert.
