16 Lonely men and women
16 Lonely men and women
Although they escaped the earth tornado, the others didn't follow, leaving only Qin Mian and Scarlett, their fates unknown.
Scarlett quickly regained her composure and looked at Qin Mian gratefully. "Qin, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would be..."
Scarlett's big, watery eyes looked so pitiful.
But Qin Mian had no romantic thoughts at the moment.
He quickly moved to the only window in the stone house that had no door, and cautiously peered out.
The raging sandstorm continued, reducing visibility to almost nothing. He saw several sand foxes and a few other small, unidentified animals scurrying frantically into the ruins of a smaller stone house across the way, clearly seeking shelter, but there was no one else in sight.
"Could they all have been dragged into this?" Qin Mian frowned.
If everyone else dies, leaving only him and Scarlett, then the road ahead will likely be troublesome.
Although he obtained the Qilin blood, he was ultimately just a college student with very little outdoor survival experience, let alone the ability to find the Jingjue Ancient City and complete the mission.
Most importantly, his exclusive mission is to kill Guanshan Taibao.
So, does he want to kill it himself, or is it enough if Guanshan Taibao dies?
If it's the former, then these people died inexplicably, and he wouldn't be able to complete his mission.
Scarlett recovered and seemed to have thought of the problem as well; her expression turned extremely unpleasant.
"Sigh, this sandstorm is so fierce. If they get caught in the center, they're definitely going to die. Qin, it seems we'll have to rely on the two of us for the rest of the journey!"
Qin Mian also sighed.
What's done is done, and there's no point in thinking about it anymore. We can only take it one step at a time.
"Qin, may I ask how you found this place amidst the endless yellow sand? There doesn't seem to be anything special about this place!" Scarlett asked again.
Qin Mian said, "It's a white camel. I once read about it in an adventure journal. White camels in the desert are extremely rare auspicious creatures. They have an almost instinctive perception of the desert's terrain, climate, and even hidden oases or ruins. They know where to take shelter from storms. Moreover, although this is a three-star dungeon and very dangerous, it can actually be seen as a large-scale escape room game. There will be countless levels along the way, but none of them will be unsolvable; otherwise, this dungeon would lose its meaning."
"If it's just for killing, the God of Dungeons could easily wipe everyone out, so there's no need for these dungeons."
"A large-scale escape room!" Scarlett looked at Qin Mian with some surprise. After Qin Mian said that, she felt enlightened.
Since it's an escape room game, each level will definitely have hints. If you carefully find these hints, wouldn't you be able to greatly reduce the difficulty?
"Qin, you're so smart! Are all college students in your Great Xia this amazing?" Scarlett looked at Qin Mian with admiration, like a little fangirl.
Honestly, any man would probably fall for such a beautiful woman looking at him with such adoration.
But Qin Mian remained resolute.
This is a dungeon, and he doesn't believe that a female celebrity who can become a sensation in the United States would worship him because of a few words he said.
Something unusual must be a sign of something sinister; if a person acts abnormally, there must be something supernatural about them.
He won't let his guard down around Scarlett just because of sweet talk.
However, he subtly revealed a hint of awkwardness and shyness after being praised by the beautiful woman, and scratched the back of his head with an embarrassed smile: "No, it's nothing, I just like to play puzzle games and think about things randomly."
"Qin, you're too modest." Scarlett smiled charmingly, exuding elegance.
Qin Mian didn't dare to continue the conversation, fearing that the woman might use some kind of bewitching potion again, so he quickly changed the subject: "It looks like this sandstorm isn't going to stop anytime soon, so we should take the time to rest and recover our strength."
"Yes, you're right." Scarlett nodded obediently.
The two found relatively dry and flat corners to rest in the stone house, but they tacitly maintained a safe distance that would allow them to react quickly.
Qin Mian lay on the sand with his eyes closed, trying to rest, but in his mind he was thinking, "From what I understand, once the sandstorm is over, desert army ants should break out here, so I must leave as soon as the sandstorm is about to stop."
what……
Just then, Scarlett suddenly screamed.
Qin Mian suddenly opened his eyes and sprang to his feet. He saw Scarlett leap up from the corner she had chosen like a startled rabbit, her face pale. She pounced on him with astonishing speed, then without saying a word, buried her face in his chest, wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, and trembled violently.
"What's wrong?" Qin Mian frowned, instinctively trying to push her away, but Scarlett held him tightly.
"There...there...there are dead people!" Scarlett's voice was choked with sobs as she pointed trembling fingers to the shadowy corner where she had just been resting.
Qin Mian focused his gaze in the direction she pointed.
The light was dim, but among the sand and gravel piled up in the corner, a pale, human skeleton could indeed be vaguely seen!
Judging from its outline, it resembled a half-crouched skeleton, partially buried in sand, with empty eye sockets staring in their direction, adding to its eerie atmosphere in the flickering dim light.
"Don't worry, it's just a skeleton!" Qin Mian said.
Scarlett seemed to be still in shock. She slowly raised her head from Qin Mian's chest, looked up at him with teary eyes, her full breasts heaving violently with her rapid breathing, rubbing against Qin Mian's chest.
She gasped and pleaded softly, "Qin... I... I'm so scared... This place is so dark, there's a storm outside, and there are dead people inside... Can I... can I hold you while I sleep tonight? Just for a little while... please..."
He held her soft, warm body in his arms; her amazing elasticity and heat emanated through her thin clothing, mixed with her faint, pleasant fragrance, different from the smell of sand and dust, and her warm, moist breath, which sprayed directly onto Qin Mian's neck and ears.
Qin Mian felt his hormones surge, and at that moment, he had an urge to just have sex with this woman.
Scarlett hugged Qin Mian, her face full of seductive charm.
"Qin...holding you...it feels so safe...so reassuring..." She shifted slightly, pressing the contact closer, tilting her head back, her breath sweet as orchids, "Qin...I...I really like men like you...calm, intelligent, and so reliable in crucial moments..."
Qin Mian swallowed, his eyes slowly becoming somewhat unfocused.
"Qin, I'm so scared, can you hold me tight?" Scarlett grabbed Qin Mian's hand and then guided him to slowly place his hand on her slender waist.
goodong...
Qin Mian swallowed hard, feeling his heart race and his body heat up. It seemed as if only one thought remained in his mind.
"I slept with her..."
