Chapter 2171: Chapter 2171: The Passage
Qin Yu directly struck out with his palm, sending the fool blocking the way flying.
The two of them found a wine cellar in the kitchen behind, but, regrettably, the cellar only contained a few empty wine barrels and no aged fine wine.
"Honey, it seems our luck isn’t that great."
"What’s there to worry about? If you want wine, I have plenty here." Qin Yu said with a slight smile, summoning a wine gourd from his Purple Micro Star Ring.
This was the fine wine Qin Yu plundered from Huanhai, with a strange fragrance emanating from it. Even just smelling the scent, Ziyan felt her head spinning a bit.
"Husband, what kind of wine is this? Why do I feel a bit dizzy?"
Ziyan leaned her head against Qin Yu’s body, looking at him slightly bleary-eyed.
Soon enough, Qin Yu realized that the wine in the gourd was a special intoxicating wine from Huanhai, which could cause one to fall into an Illusory Realm.
Qin Yu raised his hand to massage Ziyan’s temples, and her gaze became clear again.
Ziyan’s cheeks flushed red, the desert, the abandoned building, the dark cellar—these words linked together, making Ziyan exceptionally excited!
Life with her husband was truly too thrilling!
All of a sudden, Ziyan noticed that something was off about Qin Yu. He was tilting his head, his ears twitching incessantly.
"Husband, what’s wrong?"
"Someone’s coming."
"Someone’s coming?" Ziyan’s softened muscles tensed up in an instant. Encountering people in the desert was very dangerous. Why would normal people enter the desert?
"Mhm, and quite a few are coming, but they’re just ordinary people, no need to worry." Qin Yu grinned.
"They haven’t taken Bai Shan and Bai Xue away, have they?" Ziyan grew nervous.
"Rest assured, Bai Shan and Bai Xue are Quasi-Celestial Realm Spiritual Beasts. With these people’s abilities... Huh? The aura of these people seems somewhat familiar, it seems like old Zaji."
Qin Yu furrowed his brow. What was old Zaji doing in the desert? He had a good impression of the old man and did not wish to see him perish in a black storm.
"Old Zaji? Could it be that old Zaji is guiding someone again? Seems like he lost quite a bit of money."
Hearing the name old Zaji, Ziyan felt much more at ease.
In the main hall, the members of the exploration team were shivering behind the bar! They could even feel the earth and walls vibrating!
What worried them even more was the skylight on the roof kept pouring down sand.
"Uncle Zaji, we’re not going to be buried alive, are we?" Watching the small sand dune in the middle of the hall grow taller, Xu Kun looked at old Zaji with an anxious gaze.
Old Zaji’s complexion was extremely unsightly; this black storm was much larger than any he had encountered before. It was his first time dealing with such a massive black storm!
"We can’t keep staying here. It really is possible we’ll get buried alive! Let’s look for a wine cellar or storage room or something. If we hide in there, at least we won’t be buried alive."
"But, if the sand has completely covered the ground, even if there is a wine cellar or storage room, we can’t find it!" Bai Yi frowned and glanced around.
"Why would a wine cellar or storage room be in the hall? The hall is the place for entertaining guests for meals." Old Zaji said calmly.
"Uncle Zaji, there’s a staircase over here, let’s go up to the second floor and have a look." Yang Fengshan pointed towards the staircase beside them.
"The second-floor lodges rooms for guests. If the inn collapses, the people in the rooms will be the first to get crushed!" Old Zaji said softly, shaking his head.
Xu Kun laughed: "Uncle Zaji, I remember that in the Longmen Inn, there was a passage to the storage room on the second floor. Maybe, we can find a way into the storage room on the second floor!"
