Chapter 275 Meeting the Killer
Chapter 275 Meeting the Killer
In an unknown place in the desert, the Lord of the South Island was floating in the air, looking at the hunchbacked old man opposite him.
No one could have imagined that such a skinny old man was actually an extraordinary master.
The camel of the South Island Lord had disappeared, and the old man opposite had no camel following him either.
However, the two did not care whether there was a camel following them.
There was thirty feet between the two of them. Although the old man had no expression, it could be seen from his eyes that he was not very happy at the moment.
He opened his mouth and coughed twice, then said, "Master Nandao really won't let me?"
The South Island Master looked at him without answering, but just shook his head slightly.
The old man's eyes became even more sinister, and he snorted coldly: "That also depends on whether those two little bastards can get the things out of this desert safely."
The South Island Master still didn't say anything. Under the black mask, his expression didn't even change, as if the two little brats the old man was talking about had nothing to do with him.
In fact, he knew very well that this old man was the most dangerous person for Yun Huizhou and Lian Li.
He only needs to keep an eye on this old man, and Yun Huizhou and Lian Li can handle the situation in the desert.
Even though those killers had received instructions from the old man to go deep into the desert to find Lian Li and Yun Huizhou and kill them.
Although he had been walking outside the sensing range of the treasure, misleading the killers and the old man for quite some time, as the time for the treasure to be born was getting closer, the sensing range was still expanding.
A day ago, the speed at which the sensing range expanded suddenly increased dramatically.
This meant that the South Island Master, who had been controlling the distance and speed, could no longer mislead the old man, as they were all within the sensing range.
The old man already knew the approximate location of the treasure, and the South Island Master also knew that the treasure had already appeared. It all depended on whether Yun Huizhou and Lian Li could use the lotus to find the treasure in advance and take it away directly.
Fortunately, the location they were in was extremely far away from where the treasure was. They could only barely sense a direction, let alone see the strange vision.
However, in addition to his two apprentices, there were also many horse bandits and scattered killers in the desert.
The abnormal phenomena of the treasure are generally more obvious. If Yun Huizhou and Lian Li cannot find the location and take the treasure away in advance, the abnormal phenomena will become more and more obvious over time and the range will become larger and larger.
The South Island Master had no idea how big the maximum was. He only knew that when it reached the extreme, if the treasure had not been taken away by anyone, the strange phenomenon would disappear completely in an instant.
In fact, the Lord of the South Island did not care too much about whether he could get the treasure. He simply felt that the bandits and the old man in front of him should not be allowed to get it.
If the horse bandits can use it successfully after getting it, with this treasure being able to reach a level that can be sensed by extraordinary masters and calculated by Bei Heng, I am afraid that after the horse bandits use it, a large-scale horse bandits will appear soon.
By then, it will be a huge threat to both the caravans and the people in the border towns, and even the border will become unstable.
And if the old man in front of him gets it, I'm afraid the martial arts world will also be in chaos.
Now that the imperial court is in trouble, if the martial arts world continues to be in chaos, it will be a disaster for ordinary people.
Therefore, when Lord Nandao saw that the extraordinary master called by the group of killers was this old man, he knew clearly that he had to stop this man no matter what.
If there is a chance, it would be even better if we could kill the opponent here.
It seemed that the indifferent attitude of the South Island Lord had angered the old man. He could no longer hold back and attacked the South Island Lord.
The South Island Lord finally reacted at this time. He still had no intention of speaking, but he showed no mercy when he attacked.
However, he did not reveal his murderous intent when he took action.
Even when extraordinary masters fight each other, they will basically stop at the right time.
Because it is difficult to kill the other party completely, once the other party escapes, it will be okay if you are alone.
If there are disciples and grandchildren, then they will be in danger.
After Lian Li and Yun returned to the boat and expanded their camel team, they headed towards the exit of the desert.
Their speed of advancement was not very fast. After all, it was impossible for the camels to drag them day and night.
However, what made the two men feel better was that the horse bandits seemed to have really lost their trace, or they had not given up yet but were just afraid to send a small team to chase them first, for fear of losing more men and camels.
Anyway, apart from the fact that it was too sunny during the day and too cold at night, which bothered them a little, everything else was fine these past two days.
On the third day of walking, they found a water source again. However, compared with the abundant water source in the previous oasis, the water source they found now looked a little pitiful.
Lian Li got off the camel, took four empty water bottles and went to the water source.
In the desert, people use water sparingly, and most of the time they just take a sip of water and dare not drink any more.
However, this time, thanks to the supplies sent by the horse bandits, the two of them were a little more extravagant than before.
He squatted down and was about to fetch water when he suddenly heard Yun Huizhou calling him, "Lian Li!"
He turned around and was about to ask Yun Huizhou what was going on when he suddenly heard someone coming towards him.
The distance was not too far, but they could not see each other due to the sand dunes.
However, the footprints left by the camel cannot be erased in a short time. If the other party sees the footprints, it will be easy to follow them to find you.
Putting the kettle on the shore, Lian Li nimbly returned to Yun Huizhou. The two of them quickly flew to the top of the sand dune like a dragonfly skimming the water, then lay down and relaxed, imagining themselves as a giant desert reptile, using their hands and feet to climb to the top.
This method was thought up by Lian Li. He even asked Yun Huizhou to close his eyes, and he crawled on the ground to see if Yun Huizhou could tell that he was a human.
Yun Huizhou's feedback to him was that it was a very strange sound and he couldn't tell what it was. It felt like a lizard crawling, but it seemed too big.
The two of them had created this crawler as a joke, and never thought it would ever be useful.
As a result, I have now encountered a situation where I can use it.
The two men lay on the sand dune and looked down cautiously.
Sure enough, I saw about twenty people riding camels following the footprints left by their camels.
They were wearing the same black clothes, black masks on their faces, and had a long sword at their waist.
That's what those killers are wearing.
Lian Li was feeling very upset. He had just gotten rid of the horse bandits for a few days and he met the killer again.
Can we let them get out of the desert safely?
Even though he complained in his heart, Lian Li knew that this group of killers and horse bandits were coming for this treasure.
