Chapter 47: The Flying Black Dragon

  Jiang Jing, who was taking Cha Qian to the ancient tomb, told him that this ancient tomb was called "Tong Lin Tie Bi", and as for why it was called that way, he would know when the time came.

  After making preparations, Zha Qian and the other three set out towards the ancient tomb of "Tong Lin Tie Bi", and they went deep into the desert until they reached a place with dense sand dunes.

  Jiang Jing told Cha Qian that this was the location of the ancient tomb "Tong Lin Tie Bi", but when Cha Qian looked around, all he saw were endless sand and dunes, without any sign of a special place.

  One of Jiang Jing's two good friends, Dai Tianli, told Zha Qianzong that today was the day of "Jade Gate Flying Dragon". When the time comes, a storm will sweep in and blow out the ancient tomb of "Copper Forest Iron Wall".

  The four of them now had to dig a windbreak cave in the leeward direction before the "Jade Gate Flying Dragon" sandstorm arrived. Only then did Zhao Qian understand why Jiang Jing and the others had prepared iron shovels and other tools earlier.

  Half a time later, on the leeward side of an intermediate sand dune, a windbreak cave appeared, just enough to hold down Zhang Qian and his four men.

  This time, as they entered the desert, all four of them were riding camels. These camels were extremely obedient and after being told to lie down, they quietly stayed outside the windbreak cave.

  At this time, the red clouds were densely packed at the edge of the sky, and the cloud layer was also rolling continuously. The wind and sand were much stronger than before. Jiang Jing called out to Cha Qian and the other two to enter the windbreak cave.

  Less than half a stick of incense had passed, and it was already dark outside. The wind howled like the wailing of ten thousand ghosts, making the sand that flew with the wind seem like blood falling from the sky, which was truly terrifying beyond measure.

  Even if they searched for a thousand miles, they hid in the air raid shelter, but the wind and sand still blew in, hitting the four people's bodies hard, and the camel outside also let out a mournful cry.

  Zha Qian suddenly remembered the four major heavenly phenomena of "Yu Men Fei Long" that Jiang Jing had told him when they were digging air raid shelters. The first was blood clouds covering the sun, which was the dense red cloud they saw in the sky earlier. And the second was blood sand blocking the sky, just like the current situation outside.

  The third is the most astonishing, called "Flying Heaven Black Dragon" sandstorm, at that time how big the sandstorm will be, Jiang Jing also can't explain to Cha Qian, only describe that at that time the heaven and earth will all be covered by this sandstorm.

  And the fourth is that after the sandstorm, a wonderful scene will appear in the sky, called "Xianren Zhilu" (Fairy Pointing the Way), which is a rainbow. At that time, they need to follow this rainbow to find the location of "Tonglin Tiebi".

  Just then, the howling wind outside suddenly stopped, and even the flying sand was no longer visible. However, Jiang Jing and his companions inside the cave became even more tense, because the "Flying Heaven Black Dragon" was about to arrive.

  At this time, the camels outside became unmanageable. One of them even stood up by itself and didn't care about the people in the windbreak calling out to it. This camel ran away like crazy, flailing its legs wildly. Cha Qian and the others inside the windbreak were helpless and couldn't possibly go out to chase after it at this time.

  Just as the camel had just run out not far, it suddenly stopped and ran in another direction. A black whirlwind that swept across the sky and earth then appeared from afar and entered the eyes of Zha Qian and others in the windbreak cave.

  It can no longer be described as shocking, because this heavenly power cannot be expressed in words. The black whirlwind was also getting closer and closer to Zha Qian and his team.

  At this time, they felt the wind rising again, and the flying sand around them rose once more. Zhang Qian and his three companions were all staring outside, not dodging the sand blowing in at that moment.

  However, the camel outside let out another uneasy cry. In the windbreak cave, Jiang Jing was somewhat displeased and asked his two friends something, but because the wind grew louder, Zha Qian could hardly hear anything.

  However, it was clear that the atmosphere inside the cave was not much better than outside. Jiang Jing moved to Cha Qian's side and whispered a few words in his ear, only then did Cha Qian look outwards with a terrified expression.

  Jiang Yunshui, who knew about Zhang Qianzhong's memory, realized that what Jiang Jing had told Zhang Qianzhong was actually said by Tiandili, one of Jiang Jing's two friends, who was a strange person who understood these celestial phenomena. He had told Jiang Jing that the "Flying Heaven Black Dragon" would come from behind, but now it was clearly not the case, as the "Flying Heaven Black Dragon" was sweeping towards them from the opposite direction.

  Jiang Jing didn't want to hide it from Cha Qianzong, he wanted to tell him, but those two friends of his wouldn't let Jiang Jing tell Cha Qianzong, and who knows what they were thinking.

  So this made Jiang Jing angry, and at this time, Jiang Jing pulled Zhang Qian to the side of the camel and rode on it with him. The two people sat on the two camels and rushed towards the side that "Fei Tian Hei Long" had not affected yet. The direction was where the camel that left alone earlier escaped.

  Dai Tianli and another person inside the windbreak, seeing Jiang Jing lead Cha Qianzong away, were both dissatisfied in their expressions, but neither of them could stay in this windbreak anymore. They also rode on the remaining two camels towards the direction where Jiang Jing and the others went.

  Now Qianzong and his team are going to race with the "Flying Black Dragon", they must run out of the range covered by the "Black Sky Flying Dragon", otherwise, once they are caught in it, there will be no chance of survival.

  The "Flying Black Dragon" sandstorm, seemingly still far away and not moving fast, was actually approaching at a considerable speed. The distance between it and Zhang Qian's group was less than five miles, leaving them with only about an hour to escape.

  However, at this time, after they came out of the cave, they could already feel the oppression and majesty brought by the "Flying Heaven Black Dragon" sandstorm.

  The howling wind pierced their eardrums, and the sandstorm was like a continuous slap in the face, slowing down the camels under them as they galloped sideways.

  And the sandstorm of "Flying Heaven Black Dragon" would change whenever Cha Qian and others occasionally glanced at it, and they could no longer see the boundary of this "Flying Heaven Black Dragon" sandstorm. What appeared in their eyes was a rolling black wind that was getting closer and closer to them.

  It was even more clearly audible the sound of "Flying Heaven Black Dragon" sandstorm, really like an angry dragon roaring, shaking people's hearts trembling, and their bodies were a bit dizzy.

  It's not just the camel riders who feel terrified, the camels under them are also intimidated by the power of nature, and they sense the danger of nature more strongly than humans do, so their desire to survive is actually stronger.

  The camels under them were getting faster and faster, already a considerable distance from the windbreak, but the sandstorm was also getting closer.

  Now, Zha Qian and Jiang Jing, who were less than two arms' length apart, could no longer hear each other's voices. The surroundings were filled with the howling wind, and the two figures were also faintly visible due to the rolling sand, as if they were about to lose track of each other.

  "The Flying Black Dragon" sandstorm finally came from afar, covering the sky and earth. Just as Zhang Qian and his three companions barely escaped its range, the sandstorm swallowed up their shelter.

  Riding on the camel, Cha Qian felt the wind behind him was like a beast that wanted to tear him apart, or swallow him whole. It kept pulling and tugging at him, and even the stones flying from the side were like knives slashing through his clothes, leaving deep and shallow gashes on his body.

  Zha Qian never dared to imagine that once he fell into the range of "Fei Tian Hei Long", he would be torn to pieces directly.

  Luckily, they escaped disaster here and after running a few more miles, the camel under Zhang Qian also became exhausted, foaming at the mouth, slowing down gradually, and finally fell to the ground.

  After Zha Qianzong got down from the camel, he looked back anxiously. Before long, Jiang Jing also came over, followed by Dai Tianli and another person who arrived here as well.
