Chapter 388
The desert where Li Zhi and his companions are at the moment actually has a terrifying name, called - Skeleton Sand.
This desert is like a harsh purgatory deliberately set up by nature, with an extremely harsh environment.
The sun was high in the sky, scorching the earth mercilessly.
In such a desperate situation, both humans and demons are deterred and rarely set foot here.
In addition to the harsh environment, the endless yellow sand makes it an excellent natural hiding place.
Therefore, this yellow sand of bones also attracted many people who tried to escape from the troubles of the world.
Some people who have grudges and want to avoid being hunted down by their enemies, as well as those monsters and evil spirits who want to avoid worldly disputes, all regard this place as the last refuge and hide in it quietly.
These evil monsters or practitioners hiding in the bones and yellow sand all have various grudges and disputes. They also understand the possible consequences of exposing themselves, so they are usually very cautious and will not show up easily.
However, not long ago, a monster that had long been famous in the sand and bones broke this long-standing tranquility and showed up unexpectedly.
The monster was so huge that it looked like a moving hill. It looked like a giant owl, with feathers as hard as steel and a cold metallic sheen.
But what is creepy is that it has a human face with four huge eyes, like four bright lamps emitting strange light, flashing a chilling glow in the darkness.
With its appearance, a dry and hot breath, like a surging heat wave, mixed with a strong evil aura, gushed out with an overwhelming force.
This breath seemed to carry endless resentment and anger. Wherever it went, the air was instantly ignited, making a "sizzling" sound.
Some small monsters that were originally near it were suddenly rushed by this breath, as if they had encountered a devastating storm.
Their bodies were instantly corroded by the evil spirit, and they let out shrill screams, as if their lives were being ruthlessly taken away.
These little monsters were terrified and tried their best to flee from this place, fearing that they would be swallowed up by this terrifying force if they were a step late.
The monster didn't care at all about the little monsters' panicked escape. After all, in its eyes, they were just insignificant ants.
It raised its head high and let out a deafening roar: "Yong——"
This cry, like a roar coming from the Nine Nether Hell, was filled with endless anger and unwillingness. It echoed for a long time over the vast desert, shaking the surrounding air.
Then, it slowly spread its huge wings, and each feather looked like a sharp sword.
It flapped its wings suddenly, and a strong airflow was formed instantly, rolling up yellow sand all over the sky.
Driven by this powerful force, its huge body soared into the air like an arrow and flew away at a high speed, leaving behind only a cloud of flying dust.
…
"You mean, there is a monster named Yong that has set its sights on us and is now guarding the front, blocking our way?"
Li Zhi frowned and looked serious as he confirmed again with the leader of the trio that suddenly appeared.
His gaze was as sharp as an eagle's, locking onto the other person's eyes tightly, trying to find out some truth from them.
After hearing this, the man nodded solemnly and said firmly, "Yes, it is absolutely true. That dragon is extremely powerful. The reason why I fought with you before was actually to test you and see if you can compete with it with your strength."
"In that case, we should thank you?" Duan Heng replied with a sneer.
The man smiled and said, "If you are so polite, I naturally don't mind."
Duan Heng rolled his eyes and ignored him.
"But why is it targeting us? We haven't encountered any evil birds along the way?" Chen Hua couldn't help but ask with curiosity on his face.
"That's a good question!"
When the man heard Chen Hua's question, he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers. He said slowly, "Actually, this matter has nothing to do with you. You are just unlucky and happened to be used as a target for it to vent its anger."
This person's words made Li Zhi and others even more puzzled. They looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.
Seeing that Li Zhi and the others were all puzzled, he did not intend to keep them in suspense and said leisurely, "This eagle was causing chaos in Yong State before, causing unrest in Yong State. Later, it was severely punished by the people of the Night Patrol Division. If it had not escaped quickly and hid in this deserted place, I am afraid it would have been killed by the Night Patrol Division long ago."
The man paused for a moment, glanced at the crowd, and continued, "Just think about it, it was originally free and easy in Yongguo, but was forced to be driven to this barren desert. This hatred is huge... Now someone from the Night Tour Department has appeared, so it will naturally not let them go."
Duan Heng looked at him suspiciously, and was full of doubts about what he said. He snorted coldly and said, "You said it very clearly, as if it were true. But why should we believe that what you said is true?"
When the leader heard this, a serious look appeared on his face, and he said, "If you don't believe me, you can go to your Night Tour Department and check the files after you go back. There must be relevant records in it. Then you will know that what I said is true."
"Even if what you said is true, why are you so kind as to take the trouble to come all the way to remind us?" Li Zhi stared at the man with a sharp gaze and asked without hesitation.
The man sighed slightly, his expression became a little complicated, and he slowly said: "It's not that I don't want to tell you some things, but if you know too much, it will only cause more trouble. Just treat me as a kind passerby."
Li Zhi's eyebrows jumped, and his expression was stern. "We don't know you, and you are unwilling to tell the truth. In this case, how can we trust you? We can't feel at ease accepting such help from unknown sources for no reason."
A faint smile appeared on the man's face. In that smile, there was a bit of open-mindedness and a bit of helplessness. He said, "Whether you believe us or not is actually not important. What we do is just to have a clear conscience."
As he spoke, he took out a map from his arms and handed it to Li Zhi.
He continued, "This map was drawn by the three of us brothers after a lot of effort. It is a map of the desert in this area. I have marked the location of the monster. If you are careful, you may be able to avoid it."
Li Zhi took the map, unfolded it, and saw that it was densely marked with various marks and routes.
There was a place on the map that was circled with eye-catching red paint, like a danger warning light. If nothing unexpected happened, this was where Yong was entrenched.
