Volume 7: Frost Chapter 40 Atmosphere
"That's a problem," Jiang You lifted the sand under his feet with his feet, "Now that we've found the location, we can get a few excavators over here, even Gundams will do."
Guan Qingtong said: "For now, it's just us."
"Did you bring a shovel?" Jiang You asked.
Zhu Wen replied: "No."
Jiang You frowned, "Dig it with your hands, right? How long will it take to find it?"
Tang Butian listened to their conversation. She looked forward and saw a whirlwind rolling up the sand and rushing towards the sky.
Zhu Wen walked back to the car, and soon he came over with a bag in his hand. He opened the bag. Jiang You looked inside and saw a pile of parts of different sizes and shapes. Zhu Wen squatted on the ground and quickly assembled the parts, and a small detector appeared in front of them.
Jiang You approached the detector, looked at the curve displayed on the screen and asked, "Is this detecting spiritual power?"
"Yes." Zhu Wen took out another box from the bag and handed it to Guan Qingtong.
After Guan Qingtong took it, Jiang You asked her, "What is this?"
Guan Qingtong explained: "After confirming the coordinates, we can unlock the seal on the box. The energy released can build a temporary spiritual power channel in the short term to send us there."
Jiang You said: "This is a good thing. Each member of the Tekoli should be equipped with a few. Are there any other similar equipment?"
"It's mainly supplied to the military." Guan Qingtong tidied up the hair that was blown onto her face.
Zhu Wen pushed the detector into the wind and sand.
The others followed slowly behind him.
"Get me a few too," Jiang You said.
"What are you going to do?" Guan Qingtong asked.
"It's quite fun. There's also the device I used last time when I went up the mountain. I made a smaller one under the stairs. I can just jump up and go upstairs. It's so much easier."
"Be careful." Tang Butian suddenly spoke.
At the same time, the detector issued a beeping alarm.
The sand under their feet began to flow rapidly, and the undulating sand dunes in the distance also began to move, rolling towards them with a roar like giant beasts.
Zhu Wen missed a step and felt that there was nothing under the sand. There was a force pulling him, and the detector sank. He simply pushed down, let go of his hand, and then rushed upwards.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Guan Qingtong approaching him from behind.
Guan Qingtong walked forward while calculating. She walked very slowly, with small steps, sometimes even taking one step forward and then two steps back diagonally, but she walked very steadily.
She walked to the spot where the detector disappeared. The sand around her feet gradually stabilized with her as the center.
Jiang You's feet were stuck in the sand. He struggled to pull one foot out, but his whole body sank even deeper.
Tang Butian glanced at him, scratched the sand with the tip of the knife, leaped upwards, and at the same time grabbed Jiang You by the back of the collar and pulled him out of the sand.
Zhu Wen flipped in the air and landed gently next to Guan Qingtong.
The sand waves were very close to them.
The wind was overwhelming and pressing towards them, and visibility became extremely low.
Guan Qingtong raised her head and looked at Zhu Wen. Zhu Wen nodded at her, and the box in her hand suddenly burst into a light blue light.
A spiritual power channel was slowly being constructed.
Tang Butian carried Jiang You to where Guan Qingtong and Zhu Wen were standing.
She threw Jiang You to the ground.
Jiang You stood up with difficulty. He glanced at the box in Guan Qingtong's hand and said, "My son is still in the car."
"I'll bring him here." Tang Butian said.
Zhu Wen watched Tang Butian make several leaps and then reach the SUV. He said, "It's safer in the car."
"I will feel uneasy if I am not watching over you." Jiang You looked at the spiritual energy channel that was becoming more and more solid, and asked, "How long will it take?"
"It's almost there." Guan Qingtong said.
"How long can it last?"
"Three to five minutes."
"Is it the principle of earth escape technique that is used?" Jiang You commented .
"Can you burrow underground?" Guan Qingtong turned to look at him.
“I’ve seen it in a book.”
"Can you stabilize this place temporarily?" Guan Qingtong asked.
"You can, but I don't recommend it," Jiang You said honestly. "I can see that the spiritual power in the sand is coming from below, but it's not just from below the sand. It's in a layer. If I do something, it will probably shrink back. I don't know how long it will take to find it again. I'm tired of looking at the sand. I want to go back, enjoy the air conditioning, and eat ice watermelon ."
"I really thought you were going to dig with your hands," said Guan Qingtong.
"I'm just livening up the atmosphere."
At this time, Guan Qingtong felt that the sand under her feet broke through her restrictions and surged again.
…
Tang Butian opened the car door and saw Jiang Mo lying on the back seat, holding a game console in his hand and playing happily.
"Get up and let's go." Tang Butian said.
Jiang Mo glanced in the direction of Jiang You.
With a loud bang.
Tang Butian saw a sandy beach rising from the ground, tearing apart the spiritual power channel that was being built and sweeping Zhu Wen and the other two into the air.
The wooden sword in Tang Butian's hand flew forward quickly.
Zhu Wen pulled out the gun from his waist and sprayed a beam of extremely hot flame at the salon. The salon was burned in half, and Guan Qingtong and Jiang You fell downwards.
The sand waves in the sky pressed heavily towards Zhu Wen. He held the gun steadily and scattered the sand chasing Guan Qingtong and Jiang You.
The sand waves were about to fall on him.
At this moment, he saw a wooden sword flying towards him, hitting him on the body, breaking the sand around him and knocking him away.
He flew backwards for a long distance, the sand dunes quickly became smaller in his eyes, he saw the clear blue sky again, and finally he crashed into the soft sand.
Guan Qingtong and Jiang You also fell to the ground.
The wooden sword swung wildly at the incoming sand waves.
The sand fell down with a rustle.
On their hair and faces.
Guan Qingtong struggled to stand up, and after taking two cautious steps, she saw a corner of the box sticking out of the sand. When she bent down to pick up the box, she saw a transparent spider silk wrapped around her wrist. When she looked closely, the spider silk disappeared, and the sand under her feet suddenly became empty.
At this time, Tang Butian had just caught up. She reached out to pull Guan Qingtong. As soon as their fingers touched, Tang Butian's feet were empty.
Both of them fell into the trap.
Jiang You lay on the sand. He licked his cracked lips and said, "Take the bag with you."
Then he rolled to the side, and the next moment, a fully loaded backpack fell beside him. He half sat up, but before he could sit still, he was smashed into the sand again. Jiang Mo lay on top of him, and the game console in his hand made a crackling sound.
Jiang You sighed heavily, held Jiang Mo down with one hand, grabbed the strap of his backpack with the other hand, closed his eyes, and the sand rolled up, covering their bodies.
