"I'd better keep an eye on him," Mowent thought to himself, "but, um, I feel like I should be nicer to him? No, damn it, what's wrong with my attitude..."

After resting for a whole morning, eating and drinking, and preparing water, Kalidora and Jilunini set out on the journey to the end of the desert again.
That being said, the desert seems to have no end, thousands of miles away, and there is no end in sight.
"Kali, I often wonder if we really didn't go in the wrong direction," Jilunini said softly.
They just drank enough water, and now they have some spare energy to chat.
But even so, they always talk in the lowest voice within the range of hearing, so as to save physical strength and moisture in their throats.
"Maybe it's off, or maybe it's not, who knows," Callidora shook her head slightly, "but no matter what, we can only believe that we are on the right path."
"It sounds like a gamble with life," Jilunini muttered, "but it's true, stepping into this desert is a gamble with life."
"Yes, but what's more despairing is that even this man-eating desert probably can't stop the tyrant's hand," Callidora sighed softly.
"But we can hold him off for a long time," said Jilunini, "at least we can hold off that bulky army, although if it's just the two of us, we'll probably be finished if we run into a small team."
"No, at least our luck isn't that bad. I remember rumors that there are few teams in the desert, and their main task is to find things here," said Kalidorra, "It is said that the tyrant doesn't hold out much hope, so he doesn't send many teams."
"I just don't know what they're looking for," Jilunini shrugged, "I've heard of many stories of brave adventurers going deep into here to find treasures, but it seems that every one of them ended up badly."
"The tyrant obviously doesn't care what the teams he sent will end up like," Kalidorra shook her head He shook his head, "But I think we should talk less. I'm feeling a little dry in the mouth."
"Well, I agree..." Ji Lunini turned his gaze back to the front, and then suddenly widened his eyes, "Wait, what is that?"
"Huh? What is that?" Kalidora looked in the direction of Ji Lunini's gaze, and then she also showed a surprised expression, "Huh? What the hell, how can there be a town in this desert? Mirage?"
"No, that's not right, there is really a town there, and, and there are people standing at the gate of the city," Ji Lunini's eyes flashed red, staring at the huge building that seemed to appear out of thin air not far away, and said, "And, and, the people at the gate seem to be made of stone..."
"Stone sculpture?" Kalidora asked in confusion.
"It's a stone sculpture, but it seems... not completely?" Ji Lunini said, "The stone sculpture seems to be alive."
18. Two-in-one Be civilized, show love, and care for empty-nest old potatoes
Liu Ji looked at the wild peppers stewing in the pot, and his mood was a little subtle.
In fact, he had already had this subtle feeling when he put wild potatoes in the dishes before, but it was only for potatoes at that time.
Thinking that he had been a potato for so many years, he had some feelings for potatoes, so it was normal to have this subtle feeling...
But now Liu Ji found out that he was wrong.
Since the meal in the morning, he felt that he could become a lot more.
All kinds of wild vegetables and wild pepper plants that he ate seemed to be added to his skill list.
Then, this subtle feeling came.
It felt that when chopping these things, there would be some kind of mysterious phantom pain.
And it was only limited to plants. He didn't feel anything when chopping bear meat.
"Could it be that I have been a potato for too long and began to have a sense of belonging and empathy for plants?" Liu Ji couldn't help thinking so.
That's really weird.
Carelessly covering the pot, Liu Ji just thought about doing something else, but when he turned around, he was shocked.
Aosa came back without knowing when, and was standing just one step behind him at this moment. He almost bumped into him when he turned around.
Ao Sa also realized his impoliteness, and hurriedly stepped back, gave Liu Ji an apologetic smile, and then raised the basket in his hand.
Liu Ji looked down and saw that it was full of wild vegetables and mushrooms.
The leftover vegetables from yesterday were almost used up, and this supply came in time. This pot of braised bear meat can just add some vegetable leaves.
Taking the basket, Liu Ji smiled at Ao Sa, turned around and prepared to wash the vegetables, and picked some suitable ones to throw into the pot.
As a result, he was washing the vegetables, but found that Ao Sa did not leave, but continued to stand behind him, staring at him curiously.
Liu Ji thought for a while and asked, "You, hungry?"
Ao Sa was stunned, scratched his head, and cast his eyes on Ya Yin not far away.
Unfortunately, the latter was busy preparing lessons at the moment and didn't look here at all.
Ao Sa scratched his chin awkwardly, then turned his head and showed an awkward smile.
Yes, Liu Ji said the spell, and Ao Sa also understood that Liu Ji said the spell, but...
Ao Sa doesn't know the spell.
Not to mention Ao Sa, even Mo Wen Te doesn't know it either. Among the three people, only Ya Yin knows the spell.
Seeing Ao Sa shrug awkwardly, Liu Ji also reacted.
The essence of the spell is still a magic spell. It is normal for Ao Sa, who is a boxer, not to know the spell.
"But he has been guarding here all the time, so he must be hungry," Liu Ji thought, and quickly washed the leaves and threw them into the pot.
Fortunately, today's dishes are almost done. When this pot of braised bear meat is done, we can...
"Bang!"
There was a loud noise not far away, and Liu Ji's hand shook, and the pot lid in his hand almost flew out.
He turned his head and saw that Mo Wente not far away had hammered his half-made chair into pieces with a carpenter's hammer for some reason.
Then, he seemed to panic suddenly, reached out and fumbled around his collar, and hurriedly took out an old round plate from his arms.
He stared at the round plate blankly, then wiped it quickly several times, and then kept shaking his head, muttering "no, no no no, no no no no" and other words, while constantly rubbing the round plate, as if to rub it into fire.
Liu Ji looked at his strange actions in confusion, and then turned to look at Ao Sa beside him, and found that the latter's face seemed to suddenly become very bad, with frowns and gloomy faces.
He turned to look at Ya Yin again, and found that the latter had also put down the notebook in his hand, walked quickly to Ao Sa's side, took the disc in his hand, and then closed his eyes.
The next moment, the disc lit up with a white light, but soon the white light dissipated again.
"Ya Yin, Carly, Carly is in trouble!" Mo Wente said, suddenly grabbed Ya Yin's shoulders, and shook back and forth without taking the initiative, "She must have encountered something! No, we have to find her! We have to save her!"
Unexpectedly, Ya Yin pushed Mo Wente's hand away, raised his hand and slapped him in the face with a double wind.
The speed of this operation was so fast and the method was so weird that Liu Ji was stunned.
But judging from the result, the effect is quite good. I don't know if he was stunned by the photo or something, but Mowente really calmed down.
"Calm down, Mowente, this thing hasn't broken yet," Yain stuffed the disc back into his arms, "Although I don't know why it suddenly lost its sensitivity, as long as it hasn't broken, Kali must still be alive."
"I know, but..." Mowente wanted to say something, but Yain raised his hand to interrupt him.
"I know what you want to say, indeed, this is very abnormal," Yain sighed, was silent for a long time, and said, "Okay, let's get ready, it seems we have to go back to that ghost place again."

In the wilderness, in front of the strange ancient city that suddenly appeared, Kali Dora and Ji Lunini were hiding behind the sand dunes, quietly observing the ancient city.
"Are we really going in?" Callidora whispered, "This place is too weird. Since I got close to this place, I can't even sense any connection with Vent."
"Of course I know there's something weird here," Jilunini turned around, "but Carly, you should know that my luck has never been very good, so I'm not someone who likes to leave my life to luck."
"Like you said, we've been walking for too long, so long that we don't know if the direction we're going is correct," Jilunini continued, "But if we can find relevant clues in this city, in my opinion, it's much better than going down a road like gambling your life."
"Well... okay, maybe you're right," Callidora sighed softly.
Although along the way, she has always been the one who is determined to move forward and keeps telling Jilunini that they can only move in that direction.
But her anxiety is actually no less than Jilunini's. She has been worried about what if she goes the wrong way? What if they are actually circling around? What if this desert never ends?
What if she never sees Mowente again?
She didn't know. She had been encouraging Jilunini, but no one could encourage her.
She could only hold the disc in her arms, feel the connection, and support herself to keep moving forward.
But since she stepped into the vicinity of this strange ancient city that suddenly appeared, she suddenly couldn't feel that connection.
For a moment, she thought that Mowente was in trouble, but soon she realized that it was not the case.
As a user of holy arts, she also studied barriers, illusions and other categories. She could feel that she had stepped into a piece of land that was isolated from all connections with the outside world.
She had never heard of such a place in the Buried Desert, and she couldn't understand why such a magnificent ruined ancient city would stand out of thin air in such a barren land.
But...
Going to this city to take risks, even if there might be danger, is countless times better than wandering in the endless desert with an unknown way ahead.
"But what should we do? Go in directly?" Jilunini leaned on the hill and looked around. "Although the guard is a stone, it looks like he is just guarding the gate... Do you think they are some kind of species unique to the desert?"
"If it is an ordinary town, of course we should observe other people entering the city first, but..." Kalidora looked around and said helplessly, "Obviously, there is no one here except us."
"Then let's go straight from the front," Jilunini stood up and patted the dust on his body, "Try it out a little. If the situation is not right, we can just run away. If we climb over the wall sneakily, we may be attacked directly."
After that, she walked to the other side of the dune first, slid down the dune towards the direction of the ancient city.
"Hey! Wait... this guy is really," Kalidora complained helplessly, and hurried over the dune and followed.

Liu Ji was a little confused.
He had just prepared a large table of dishes and was about to start eating, but Yayin and the other two suddenly started to pack up.
They prepared a lot of water bags, cut off most of the bear meat, and even chopped some dry firewood, and then stuffed them all into Yayin's magic space.
From the kick Yayin kicked into the magic space before closing it for the last time, it can be seen that the entire space was filled up by them.
Liu Ji thought they were moving at first, and was still wondering why they had to move after just building the house, but when he saw that they did not pack up the things outside the house, but sent them all into the house, Liu Ji realized that they did not seem to be moving, but were preparing to go on a long journey.
But Liu Ji was still confused. He didn't know what had happened to make the three people so anxious to go out, and even didn't bother to sit down for a meal.
Seeing that the three seemed to have almost packed up, Liu Ji hurried to Yayin's side and spelled out a question sentence with his pitiful vocabulary.
Yayin thought about it and answered within the vocabulary range controlled by Liu Ji. There were a total of several words, which meant: "We, friends, danger, looking for, you, here, waiting."
The expression of the meaning was still very accurate, and Liu Ji understood it, but...
He looked at the table of dishes that had just been prepared.
When he thought of himself sitting here alone and eating all the dishes on the table bit by bit, Liu Ji could only feel a sense of desolation.
What a pitiful empty-nest old potato.
After thinking about it, he gestured and said: "I, looking for, you, we..."
Because he didn't know how to express "go together", Liu Ji seemed a little incoherent.
Of course, Yayin could understand what he meant.
But she didn't want Liu Ji to go with them.
Liu Ji didn't understand how dangerous the environment was where they were going, and, to be honest, stepping into that life restricted area again, even if Ya Yin filled the entire magic space this time, he still had no idea.
Sighing, she thought for a while, chanted a short spell, then raised her hand and flicked Liu Ji's forehead lightly.
The next moment, Liu Ji's eyes turned blood red, and his hairy bear paw after his transformation appeared again in his sight, as well as the large intestine sashimi that slowly slid from the bear paw.
Almost an instant physiological reaction, Liu Ji felt his stomach twitch, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand.
He looked at Ya Yin with a puzzled look on his face, not knowing why the other party wanted him to recall the bloody and disgusting scene again.
Ya Yin didn't say anything, just smiled at Liu Ji, then stood on tiptoe and reached out to rub his head.
He turned around and said to Aosa and Mowente: "Are you ready? Let's go."
As he said that, he walked into the woods first.
Mowente turned his head to look at Liu Ji, opened his mouth, but said nothing, then turned around and followed behind Yayin.
Aosa on the side smiled at Liu Ji, patted his shoulder, gave him a thumbs up, and then turned around and ran towards the two people.
Looking at the backs of the three people going away, Liu Ji did not move for a long time.
Putting down his hand covering his mouth, he took a deep breath and finally suppressed the nausea.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand what Yayin wants to express. After thinking about it, Liu Ji understood it.
