Chapter 661: Water Smelled by the Ghost Soldiers



Not everyone can attend X Forum's offline meetings.

In addition to having enough wealth to register an account of the lowest level, the qualification for offline meetups requires level S or above.

People of this level are basically in the top 30 of the master rankings, and it is not easy to buy a spot.

The electric eel also used his connections to snatch the treasure away after learning that two experts were on a mission and had no time to come.

Now, there are five places available for this group of people.

After a while, Lei Zi came back with a dark face.

"Fuck! The place we had originally agreed to stay with suddenly changed its mind. I asked several other places and they all said they were booked. How can this place in Baquan, a deserted place, bring any business?"

After he finished speaking in a rough voice, he was about to persuade Xie Chenan and the others to go back to the town and stay there first, and come back to ask tomorrow.

At this time, the electric eel next to him laughed foolishly and said, "I knew you would be so blind. Come with me."

Immediately, he turned the handle of his motorcycle and rushed back to the camel caravan with a buzz. After a while, he came over riding a camel with a team.

"You're really awesome." Xie Chenan gave him a thumbs up, and then gave Lei Zi some instructions. The whole team then changed to camels and headed towards the desert together.

Along the way, you can see people walking on the same line from far and near.

Lei Zi couldn't help but be curious, "Why are there so many people, and they're all heading in the same direction? Boss, what are you doing here?"

Once we get here, we are far enough away from the entrance to the Gobi Desert.

The electric eel, riding a camel and wearing a straw hat, said slowly, "You cut off the order without knowing what we are going to do. Lao Mo is really not kind to you."

Hearing this, Lei Zi was happy.

"I just asked casually. It doesn't matter whether you answer or not. For people like us who carry our lives on our shoulders, we are not afraid even of Hades."

As he spoke, he bit the tobacco in his mouth and smiled a slightly bloody and cruel smile.

Seeing this, the electric eel nodded with satisfaction, feeling that its safety was guaranteed.

He is just a hacker with average skills, so a large gathering like this still requires some armed protection.

Of course, "Brother, if you bring three people with you, can you protect them when the time comes? Let me tell you, there are quite a few people practicing on the master list, and each of them is at a very high level. It is said that some of them are already holographic bodies." The electric eel approached the two camels and whispered to Xie Chenan.

He was worried that there were not enough people, but after he finished speaking, he found that Xie Chenan was staring at him with an indescribable look on his face.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

The electric eel wondered.

"It's okay." Xie Chenan looked away and said calmly, "Don't worry about me. I'll leave all these people to you."

They don't need it anyway.

The electric eel thought he was going to help Ichigo San, so he immediately gave him a thumbs-up and said, "Good brother, I knew you were a good person."

Xie Chenan didn't say anything because the weather was too hot.

In the summer on the plateau, the surface temperature is stored in the sand, which is like roasting people on fire. Even if you are sitting on a camel, sweat will continue to seep out of your body.

Even a cultivator like Ye Lan couldn't help but drink a bottle of water, let alone other ordinary people.

After waiting for a long time until the sun went down, the camel caravans found large rocks to block the wind and set up camp.

"We can't tell the direction at night, so we can't hurry on." Lei Zi and his companions explained to Xie Chenan while setting up the tent. "Besides, Ghost Valley is roughly nearby and can only be seen at night."

at night.

As the only girl in the team, Ye Lan did not have to participate in setting up the tent. She sat aside and looked at the endless desert in front of her. Thinking of the formation of Guigu, she felt something strange.

Is there anything that cannot be seen during the day but can be seen at night?

As night fell, tents in groups of three or four formed a circle in the shelter. In the rapidly cooling desert, everyone sat around and lit a bonfire.

Lei Zi noticed that everyone nearby was very alert. He rubbed his fingers together and asked Xie Chenan, who was standing opposite him, "Boss, Guigu is about to go in. Is this trip dangerous? You need to give me some information first."

Although their line of work requires them to travel all over the country and live on the edge of danger, no one is truly fearless of death, and they will try their best to protect themselves when going on a mission.

Xie Chenan replied, but Electric Eel spoke up, grinning, "Don't worry, we're just going to an offline gathering, there won't be any violence. But you'd better not act rashly, otherwise you could easily lose your life."

The tone was casual, but Lei Zi keenly caught a hint of murderous aura, and his heart tightened immediately.

"Don't worry, bosses. We will definitely be cautious and careful." Lei Zi nodded and signaled to his dozen brothers.

At this time, Xiao Yunting handed Ye Lan a cup of freshly boiled water.

Ye Lan glanced at him and reached out to take it. The touch of her fingertips on the hot edge of the quilt caused a strange, fleeting feeling.

Ye Lan held the cup of boiled water and waited for it to cool down for a while before he picked it up to drink. As a result, he found it extremely bitter as soon as he took a sip.

"Where does this water come from?" she asked Xiao Yunting with a sidelong glance.

Xiao Yunting paused, picked up the empty mineral water bottle at his feet and said, "Here."

Poured from the bottle?

Ye Lan frowned and leaned over to look at the boiling water pot again.

The pot is brand new, the inner wall and bottom are very clean, and Wu Heng even cleaned it with mineral water just before using it.

But now, everyone couldn't help but spit out "Pooh" after taking a quick taste.

"What's this broken water? Why is it so hard to drink?"

Everyone couldn't help but grumble. Only the camel caravan, huddled aside and chatting in their native dialect, also a local, laughed and said, "You must have left the lid on when you boiled the water. Baquan Ghost Valley is the land of the ghost soldiers. They don't tolerate mortal things. Once the ghost soldiers smell it, it will taste like chewing wax. Even food can't be exposed to the air for too long."

Hearing this, Lei Zicai clasped his hands together to express his gratitude to the land god, replaced the water in the pot, covered it with a lid, and began to boil it, but he muttered to himself, "What bad luck."

Obviously, he also believed the rumor.

However, as cultivators, Wu Heng and his companions knew that this was not a rumor, and that it was true that Yin creatures could gain a sense of fullness through smell.

However, when Ye Lan looked at the cup in his hand, he felt that this matter was not that simple.

After a simple dinner, Lei Zi and the native said that Guigu would not appear so early, so they asked everyone to go into the tent to rest and wake everyone up when they saw the entrance.

Xie Chenan and Wu Heng were worried, so they stayed to guard the place together.

Ye Lan entered one of the tents to meditate. With her insight, she could immediately detect any movement around her.

But as soon as I stepped in, I heard the tent shaking, as if someone was pressing on it.

She turned around and lifted the curtain, and found Xiao Yunting leaning against one of the brackets, standing right at her door.

Seeing the man's impeccably handsome profile dimly reflected by the bonfire in the darkness, Ye Lan paused for a moment, but in the end said nothing. He chose to lower the door curtain and go back to meditate.

As for why the other party followed me and what his purpose was, he would tell me if he wanted to.

The atmosphere between the two of them was delicate, but Xie Chenan and Wu Heng were extremely angry over there.

They were acting as gatekeepers, but they were not careful and Xiao Yunting took advantage of the opportunity.

"A pretty boy who only relies on his appearance to attract attention."

Xie Chenan curled his lips and complained in a low voice, his disgust evident in his words.
