C969 Quicksand Diameter
He was so anxious that the other experts in the Immortal King Level could not fly in this place, and could only rely on their legs to walk. All year round, this place was filled with sandstorms, and it was known as the Sand Country. However, it was precisely because of such harsh conditions that the people here had a valiant disposition, and their combat prowess far surpassed that of an ordinary country.
If one wanted to reach the center of the Shura World, they had to pass through this vast sand belt. Although the environment here was harsh, it was not desolate, and there were often people shuttling back and forth between the central region and the borderlands. After many years of exploring, they finally managed to find a safe path here.
There were many sand pirates on both sides of the Quicksand Path. They rode a unique type of sand wolf that was a local breed of sand wolf and travelled back and forth like the wind in this strong wind, giving merchants and experts a headache. Even the Mighty s would have their battle strength greatly reduced if they entered the Quicksand Path, but the sand wolves that lived here for many years would not be affected.
However, in order to fully squeeze out his potential, he still passed through this sand path step by step. Now, he was already halfway there, and along the way, he saw a lot of bleached bones, and he didn't even know how many were buried by the sand.
It should be a caravan, no less than six hundred people. Among them, nearly three hundred of them were experts of Immortal King Level, and a few of them were Mighty. It could be said that they were an extremely powerful caravan." At this moment, they were resting and eating, and when they saw Lee Shaoyu, they all revealed a surprised look. In this quicksand path, there were very few people walking alone, because the conditions here were too harsh. If one walked alone in here, it was very possible that one would be submerged in quicksand without encountering a sand thief.
He didn't want to cause a misunderstanding with this caravan, so he deliberately took a few steps to the side, away from this caravan. However, the Quicksand Path was only so wide.
"Brother, it's too dangerous to travel alone. If you don't mind, why not join our caravan?" An old man with a white beard suddenly stopped Lee Shaoyu and shouted at him.
Lee Shaoyu stopped walking and turned his head to look, only to realize that there were still many Cultivator gathered in groups of two or three near the caravan, probably wanting to pass through the quicksand path just like him, but there were too few people, so they followed the big caravan in. The big caravan was afraid of the sand pirates, so they also needed to increase the strength of their guards, thus forming a temporary benefit system.
It was no wonder that he didn't see anyone along the way. He reckoned that they had all gathered together, and who knew when the next group would enter.
"Thank you for your kind intentions, I'm used to it myself, so I won't disturb you any longer." Lee Shaoyu shook his head. He didn't need to walk with these people and didn't want to get into trouble.
"Little brother, do not underestimate the sand pirates here. Originally, our caravan had a total of one thousand seven hundred people, and we had already encountered three sand pirates on our way through the quicksand path. Although we managed to beat them back in the end, our numbers had also decreased to six hundred and thirty-two people. It's almost impossible for you to survive on the road ahead by yourself. " The old man looked at Lee Shaoyu and said in a deep voice, "Why don't you stay and join us? We can look after each other. One more person means one more person's strength."
"It's fine, I'm here to gain experience." Lee Shaoyu said in a soft voice. He was wondering why he didn't encounter any sand pirates along the way, but they were repelled by this caravan.
"Grandfather, since he doesn't want to walk with us, then why do you need to persuade him? Maybe he's a powerful expert, and if he walks with us, we'll drag him down." The old man wanted to say something, but a young girl who was as pretty as a doll walked out from behind him and pulled his sleeves as she spoke. The old man could not help but reveal a wry smile. How strong could a young man who had used both legs to pass through quicksand be?
Lee Shaoyu looked at the little girl and his heart twitched because this little girl was actually similar to his daughter when she was young. When he saw this little girl, Lee Shaoyu couldn't help but feel a little absent-minded, and the memories that he had suppressed deep down inside his heart also surfaced. All these years, he had been forcing himself not to think about it, but now he couldn't help but feel love.
"What old sir said is very reasonable, I alone am not a match for those bandits, it is safer to join your caravan." He treated meeting the little girl as a form of fate. Since the two of them were fated, he naturally had to follow along with their fate. At a critical moment, he didn't mind helping this group of people.
"I thought you would insist on walking by yourself, but it turns out you also know how to be afraid." The little girl turned around, blinked her big eyes and said to Lee Shaoyu.
"Ruitalee, don't talk nonsense!" The old man quickly stopped the girl from continuing. He was really afraid that Lee Shaoyu would be angry and leave. After all, they were in urgent need of manpower right now. He could tell that Lee Shaoyu was someone who was very assertive. He must have a weird temper. If something went wrong, he would probably just leave by himself.
"What nonsense. I'm just speaking the truth." Ruitalee muttered softly. However, after being glared at by the elder, she revealed a wronged expression and no longer spoke.
Seeing that, Lee Shaoyu laughed twice, and no longer said anything, and directly ran to the bottom of a horse carriage. The Luo Clan Cultivator in the caravan only saw that he placed a few stones around, and the strong wind and sand were actually unable to penetrate within a three meter radius around him, and they all revealed a strange expression. Lee Shaoyu did not look at them, and directly took out the fire crystals and the strange beast meat he brought and started to roast them.
Because of the sand being too big in the quicksand path, most people who passed by this place would prepare some dried meat and Asura stones for their food. There was no grill like Lee Shaoyu, so when the fragrance drifted out, many people couldn't help but drool, but no one came up to ask for it.
However, although others didn't come, Ruitalee was different. She had already ran to Lee Shaoyu's side and stared at the piece of meat with her shiny black eyes, almost drooling on the ground.
"I didn't expect that although you look like you're in a daze, you still have a set of cooking skills." Ruitalee said to Lee Shaoyu while drooling.
Stunned?
Lee Shaoyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Did he have such an image in Ruitalee's heart? Besides, when did he look like he was in a daze? This was called being cold, okay?
"Do you want to eat?" Lee Shaoyu cut off a piece of meat and asked Ruitalee in a soft voice.
"Yes!" Ruitalee blurted out without thinking. She had been salivating over this piece of meat for a long time.
"Since you want to eat, you should say something nice to make me happy, instead of saying something to make me angry." Lee Shaoyu deliberately put on a straight face and said.
"It's a pity that I can't lie. I only know how to tell the truth." Ruitalee shook her head and smacked her lips. Although she was reluctant, she still stood up and prepared to leave. She knew that Lee Shaoyu must be angry and wouldn't let her eat him.
"Don't you know how to change? "Even for such an alluring barbecue?" Lee Shaoyu laughed.
"It's not that I don't understand, it's that I don't want to." Ruitalee straightened her body and pouted as she spoke. At this moment, she was like an adult, there was not even the slightest bit of childishness on her face.
