Lord of Eternal Darkness

But St. Assad didn't know how to ask, so she changed the topic with other topics.

"Don't you want to wash it?"

Li Xiaoming was a little surprised, and said with a playful smile: "Not very good, I'm afraid you will suspect that I secretly drank your bath water."

"Well, you are really a hopeless pervert." Saint Assad clenched his little fist.

"I'm just kidding, I took a shower the day before yesterday and it's all gone, so let's skip it." Even though it was a hot day, my body still couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.

Saint Assad had nothing to say, so she could only help collect the firewood and prepare to relight it.

Li Xiaoming took out the knife he carried with him and dismembered the insect, which had 6 times the protein of beef. He took the thigh and roasted it on the fire. There was a fragrant aroma. He sprinkled some condiments on it. He felt that the taste should be okay, considering the conditions in the wild. I won’t force it.

"Hey, Xiaode, do you want to try it? I'm still a little confident in my cooking skills. I'm afraid you will fall in love with me after eating it, haha." He said shamelessly.

St. Assad chose to refuse.

"No... no, no, this thing looks so disgusting, I can just eat the biscuits."

Li Xiaoming shook his head with some pity, and then feasted on this piece of insect meat. It was so enjoyable.

"Oh, it smells really good. It tastes okay, but it tastes like metal crayfish. Are you sure you don't want to try it?" After swallowing, he invited again.

The way he ate seemed as if someone had sped it up twice, which made Xiaode a little worried.

Will eating in such a hectic manner put a burden on the stomach? There's no need to be in such a hurry if you're in a hurry.

But smelling the fragrance, I instantly felt that the biscuits on my hands had no smell at all.

She fixed her eyes on the roasted insect meat, sniffed it gently with the tip of her nose, and felt saliva secreted.

Damn it, I just haven’t eaten it before, why are you so curious!

Li Xiaoming came to her side with a smile, and while Xiaode was chewing biscuits with his mouth open, he threw the piece of meat into her mouth.

"How's it going? Does it taste good?"

St. Assad also followed the other party's behavior and tasted it carefully. It tasted really good. He was used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas. He could occasionally try new things, but he was afraid of any viruses, so he should eat as little as possible.

"It's just so-so, not as delicious as the ones made by the chef at home." St. Assad turned around and took small bites of the biscuits.

Li Xiaoming didn't say anything, he just hoped that the other party could get used to the smell of strange animals, so that he could increase his food reserves and reduce some energy consumption.

However, this mutated giant locust is still slightly poisonous, so it is best not to consume more than 1,000 grams a day.

After eating and drinking, Li Xiaoming buried the food remnants in the sand to avoid being traced by some people.

Saint Assad smacked her lips in recollection and followed Li Xiaoming out of the oasis.

The sun was shining brightly in the sky, and I didn’t know how long we had been walking.

The endless desert stretches like waves.

Li Xiaoming walked in front with a large backpack on his back, trying to shield the woman behind him from the dust.

According to the positioning on the mobile phone map, the two sides are now about 30 kilometers away from the Innocence City.

However, due to the hot weather, I had to stop to rest and replenish water every time I walked. In addition, the sand was soft, so the walking time was several times longer than the normal walking time.

Xiaode was squatting on the ground holding a water bottle to replenish water.

Li Xiaoming raised his head and looked into the distance. He wiped his eyes with some difficulty, suspecting that he was hallucinating.

There seemed to be golden waves ahead. No, it was a tide of sand like sea water, so that the entire sky was covered with a layer of yellow sand.

In the sand dynasty, there are also huge desert-mutated creatures, just like a hill, rushing here.

The huge animal has a short oval body, a sac shape, and no fins; the boundary between the head and the body is not obvious, and there are eight huge tentacles waving at will below, and dense ring suckers can be vaguely seen on the rough leather surface. It was covered with rock-like armor.

"This is unscientific. There are actually octopuses in the desert!"

Li Xiaoming didn't dare to think about it. How could invertebrate molluscs swim in the desert without water?

Li Xiaoming immediately grabbed Xiao De's hand and started running towards the back.

Xiaode asked: "What is that thing?"

"I don't know either. From a distance, it's at least 20 meters long. I definitely can't beat it."

The monster didn't know what was going on, but it seemed to have recognized Li Xiaoming and the two of them. It waved its eight thick tentacles and crawled towards them quickly. The distance between the two sides became closer and closer.

Li Xiaoming felt that it wouldn't be a problem if things continued like this. He didn't expect that the Desert of Death was so dangerous. He just gave it a try and fought back.

Just as he was about to summon the nightmare beast and take out the rose thorn, he heard a thunderous scolding coming from the front.

"You are so bold and evil, you don't know the heights of the sky and the heights of the earth. How can I allow you to be so arrogant here in the forbidden land of yellow sand!"

I saw a person running quickly on the yellow sand without any resistance, as if he was flying.

After the octopus heard the sound, it ran away like crazy. It seemed that it had been chased by this person before.

It seems that Li Xiaoming and his wife were unlucky enough to just block the path of this sandstone octopus.

Suddenly something shot towards the octopus, followed by a booming explosion, and the shock wave raised the sand and soil around it high.

The sandstone octopus was knocked directly to the ground, then struggled to get up and continued to escape.

"Hey, why are you still stubborn and wasting decades of practice in vain? Why not stay away from the world and repent with peace of mind. It seems that you need a little monk to send you to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss."

Just when the octopus was waving its huge tentacles, preparing to knock away all the two people in the way, something like a missile hit the octopus solidly, instantly knocking it back more than 20 meters away. The impact was visible. Strong.

And Li Xiaoming also saw clearly who was coming.

He wore a bamboo hat to block the sun, a red cassock on his body, his face covered by metal armor, and a pair of black VR glasses on his eyes. The light of the breathing light on his body was constantly changing.

What's even more surprising is that he has 6 arms, 4 of which are complex robotic arms.

At this moment, he was clasping his hands together with two flesh and blood hands, two mechanical hands holding Gatling, and the other two mechanical hands facing the back, constantly turning something like a music box, and broadcasting the beautiful sound of chanting Buddhist scriptures.

"Mechanical monk, from Xumi Zen Temple?" Li Xiaoming deduced the identity after seeing the other person's image.

But to be honest, I have very little contact with them, and most of them just read the news online.

I just heard that the monks in Xumi Temple are all people who pursue scientific truth. They often walk around the world and help people. Most of them give people the feeling of ascetics, but I didn't expect that the firepower output is also surprising.

Seeing that the octopus was still resisting, the mechanical monk couldn't help but shook his head.

"I had no intention of harming you, but why did you eat the passers-by? Although I know it was caused by the environment, you still need to stick to your heart. If you don't eat them, I won't save you. This is the cycle of cause and effect. "

"Elder, be careful!" Li Xiaoming reminded.

The sandstone octopus supported Xiaoshanban's body and waved its tentacles forward, causing dust to rise into the sky in an instant.

These alien beasts that were irradiated during the cataclysm also mastered the ability to use alien energy. Pillars of sand surged up from the ground, mixed with sand and dust storms, and nothing could be seen clearly.

"Hey, you stubborn monster, look at the power of Gatlin, the God of Fire, and prepare to catch the monster!"

As soon as he finished speaking, I saw the mechanical monk spitting fire at his feet and actually took off on the spot?

Then he raised the Vulcan Gatling, spitting out raging tongues of fire from the gun, and the bullets were released non-stop, forming an airtight barrage.

The monster's painful roar was muffled, leaving only the constant "click-click" sound of the machine gun, like an angry roar that resounded throughout the world.

After a long time, the barrel of the gun turned red.

"Amitabha, good, good, good."

The mechanical monk lowered his head and chanted sutras, clasping his palms together, as if he was repenting for his violent murderous intention just now.

"Nawu, Heluo Tana, Duoluo Yeye..."

Looking like this, he has a majestic appearance and a compassionate look. He is like an eminent monk. This is assuming you have not seen his evil spirit and domineering power just now.

Li Xiaoming looked at the corpse that had been beaten into a hornet's nest, and felt fear for a moment. The opponent was holding a modified Vulcan Gatling. Although it was lightweight, its rate of fire was close to two to three thousand per minute. There is always hair.

Li Xiaoming couldn't help but shook his head. He felt a little pity for this monster. He died without a burial place.

The key is that the meat quality is not very good. It seems that after staying in the desert for a long time, the skin has become rough and the flesh is thick. It's a pity, what a pity.

Then the mechanical monk turned his head and looked at Li Xiaoming and Saint Assad.

"The two benefactors are safe, so I can rest assured. I have offended you a lot just now and threatened you two. I want to apologize first. Why don't you listen to me preach a Buddhist scripture and calm down to nourish your energy. Maybe you can learn something."

"Ah, no, no, no, no."

The two of them shook their heads in unison and took a step back in unison.

His tone was a little sad, and he spoke slowly: "Then don't force others to do anything. Everything in the world is about fate. Hearing is not as good as hearing, seeing is not as good as thinking, and thinking is not as good as moving. If you understand something, it is good."

"The elder really has the ambition to practice Buddhism and Zen." Li Xiaoming also clasped his hands in return.

Hearing the compliment, the robot monk was obviously very happy, at least it could be heard in his tone.

"Where did you two come from and where are you going?"

"From the City of Order to the City of Innocence." Li Xiaoming reported truthfully.

The mechanical monk was thoughtful, and then said: "I met the two donors today, and I feel that they are quite destined. Can you wait for me here for a while?"

Although Li Xiaoming felt that the other party had no ill intentions, the domineering attitude of holding a Gatling and killing all the evil spirits just now made people dare not act rashly.

Seeing that the two of them were very cooperative, the mechanical monk turned around and looked at the huge octopus corpse.

Then two mechanical arms shook the music box behind him and began to chant the rebirth mantra.

"Namo Amitabha Night, Duotagadu Night..."

Above the hot and desolate desert, ancient and solemn chanting echoed in the sky.

He just recited a preliminary chant, then approached the octopus's body, and then the music box touched the body. In an instant, the huge octopus body disappeared. Later, he had to go to a professional place for incineration and super-processing.
