001 Chasing Thousands of Miles
.]
In a vast desert, two people were moving quickly.
Both of them looked quite young, but they were in their twenties. Unlike the usual travelers in the desert, they did not ride camels, carried only a small travel bag, and did not carry other luggage. They were all wearing very little clothes. Even one of the young men only wore a short-sleeved and did not wear a hat, as if they were not worried about being burned by the vicious sunlight.
The young man wearing short-sleeved shirts had a dark face, thin body, bright eyes, and no sign of fatigue on his face. It seemed that he did not feel much hard work in this harsh desert.
On his shoulders, two strange things stood, one with a shiny black hair and a round body, looking like a chinchilla. At this time, he was grinning, sticking out his tongue from time to time, panting, and looking so hot.
On the other side, there was a fiery red insect that looked like a snake, but there were still a few small thin wings on the back of the insect. Unlike the chinchilla, the strange snake had slightly closed eyes and shook its head slightly, as if it was enjoying the heat. The slightly closed eyes flashed from time to time, as hot as fire.
There was also a dark "baby" lying in the young man's arms. This "baby" looked just over one foot tall, as if it had just been born, but it looked very strange. It was dark all over, and there was a woody texture on its skin. It lay motionlessly in the young man's arms, without breathing, and seemed to have no life, just like a statue carved from wood.
Another young man was wearing a gray, double-breasted black shirt and a simple outfit. Although he was young, his body was slightly hunched, like a slightly widened bow. One of his face was fair, with delicate facial features, and a calm face. Only his eyes were sharper than the young man in front, like an eagle-eyed one. [.|I|SeiXiao|Shuo.com]
On his left shoulder was a small white snake, and the snake lay lazily there, with a cold expression.
These two are naturally Xie Lin and Ye Xia.
At this time, they called Ba Xiaolan before and learned that Ba Xiaolan was kidnapped. The man who kidnapped Ba Xiaolan at that time threatened Xie Lin to kill You Ye Xia. After Xie Lin and the others refused, they proposed another strange condition, asking Ye Xia to find Xiaoben as soon as possible and hand it over to her. Three days later, she would return Xiaoben to Ye Xia and promise not to hurt Xiaoben at all.
Although the two felt that there was something obvious and even said that they were planning, they still had to agree. Then they began to search for Xiaoben without stopping.
However, Ye Xia immediately called Ba Xiaolan's father. He didn't want Ba Xiaolan's family to have no idea about Ba Xiaolan's kidnap, and he always thought Ba Xiaolan was on a business trip. In order not to worry, Ye Xia did not tell them about Ba Xiaolan's kidnap.
At the same time, Ye Xia also contacted his father Jiao Da and some other people, and used almost all relationships, including his uncle's family, his master's family, Yan family, and others he knew, as well as the Shentu family, asking them to help inquire and find out information about Ba Xiaolan.
Because of Ba Xiaolan's kidnapping, almost all the five major families in the Gu Sect took action, and the entire Gu Sect was undercurrent.
Seeing that Xie Lin was very worried, Ye Xia comforted Xie Lin and said that the five major families had a huge network of relationships in the Gu Sect. Even if they could not rescue Ba Xiaolan directly, they should be able to find out some traces of Ba Xiaolan and find some clues.
He also said that the other party obviously wanted to use Ba Xiaolan to threaten them, so he would not hurt Ba Xiaolan for the time being. He even suspected that the person was instructed by Emperor Hua to search for Xiaoben everywhere and deliberately delayed their time. After all, Ye Xia also needed time to restore his strength now, just like racing against Emperor Hua, and the other party probably wanted to buy more time for Emperor Hua.
However, the other party's methods were not very clever. Ye Xia told Xie Lin that for him, the most urgent thing now is to find Xiaoben as soon as possible, because he could only find Xiaoben and use Xiaoben, Jiejie and Xiaobai to restore his original strength. I am afraid that the other party did not realize this problem, so he used this method to hinder him.
The only thing you have to worry about or doubt now is whether you can really find Xiaoben following Xiaoben’s breath.
At least from the moment, it doesn't seem very smooth.
Because three days passed, although Xiaoben's breath was intermittent and never completely disappeared, no matter how fast Xie Lin and the others chased each other, they still did not see Xiaoben.
But at this time they were able to find Xiaoben's only clue. Although the two of them were suspicious and even felt more and more strange as time passed, they still insisted on not giving up.
After negotiating with the kidnapping of Ba Xiaolan, Ye Xia found that the direction of Xiaobian's aura had changed again, so she took Xie Lin all the way east. After chasing for a day and a night, they entered the desert and then wandered in the desert.
Somehow, after entering this desert, Xiaoben's breath went around and circled in the desert. Xie Lin and Ye Xia also followed Xiaoben's breath and searched around the desert. In some places, they had passed by several times in more than one day, but they still found nothing.
Sometimes, Ye Xia locked in Xiaoben's breath and chased Xie Lin as fast as possible, but when she seemed to be very close to Xiaoben, almost close, Xiaoben's breath suddenly broke, so the two had to stop, and for a moment they became like headless flies, and didn't know where to go. However, not long after, Xiaoben's breath would appear again, so Xie Lin and the others continued to pursue it again, and time passed by little by little, but they were unable to find Xiaoben.
It seems that "Xiao Ben" doesn't want to see them, and is taking them around in circles.
This made Shelin more and more nervous and anxious.
If this continues, time will be consumed day by day. Not to mention that Ye Xia has no time and strength to restore her strength, Xie Lin cannot concentrate on refining Amu. They are clearly doing useless work now.
Moreover, the climate in this desert is extremely extreme, which is not something that ordinary people can tolerate. Although Xie Lin and Ye Xia are not comparable to ordinary people, there are not many difficulties in walking in this desert. They bring very few things, so they don’t worry about replenishing supplies. It’s not a big problem to find water and food. Moreover, the sense of direction between the two is far beyond that of ordinary people, so there is no need to worry about getting lost. However, the desert is extremely hot, and the two have been chasing Xiaobian and have almost no time to rest, so the jing power is still consumed. Now the two don’t feel anything, but after a long time, they will not be able to bear it.
What's even more disadvantageous is that although after entering this desert, Huohuo was like a fish in water, which seemed very comfortable and enjoyable, Shiohuo and Amu were obviously not adapted. Shiohuo was covered with thick hair, so he was naturally afraid of heat. Amu had always lived on the top of the mountain. The climate on the mountain was cold, which was completely different from the desert, so it was difficult for it to adapt for a while. After more than this day, Shiohuo and Huohuo, both Jingshi and Jingshi didn't seem very good. Fortunately, there was nothing serious. Xie Lin didn't have to worry about them getting sick, but in the long run, Xie Lin was afraid of any accidents.
Moreover, Xie Lin has just tamed Amu. Although Amu has lived for at least thousands of years, according to the Gu Sect, it is still a young Gu species and has very strict environmental requirements. Now it is also the critical moment for Xie Lin to refine Amu. Staying in this hot environment that Amu does not adapt to for a long time is also very unfavorable for Amu's growth.
Xie Lin felt that it was not a solution to pursue this way. It was okay for a day or two, but now, although she looked very hopeful to find Xiaoben, every critical moment, hope would be dashed. Time passed quickly, and the situation they faced would become more and more serious. Xie Lin was sure that when they were pursuing Xiaoben, Huadi must have begun to restore his strength.
So it is not a solution to make changes as soon as possible.
