Shang Qi's despair represents the current mood of others.
The old brown face was marked by ravines carved by the wind and sun. He had been to many cities with his caravan in his life, but this time it seemed that this was the end.
Shang Qi is remembering his plain but rich life. He is already old and may have lived enough, but the lives of some of the young guys in the caravan have just begun.
The final despair and helplessness made him pray to the unknown, although the possibility of getting help was smaller than the chance of danger.
At this time, a strong tugging came from my mind.
…
In fantasy.
The bearded Cheng Tongxu was chatting with Gao Wei. They found that they were always chatting, but chatting here was particularly different.
Even if the Excellency didn't respond to them, staying here filled them with a sense of excitement and adventure.
Perhaps this is the meaning of mercenaries. After living for most of their lives, they have discovered the fun of mercenaries.
Zhao Lan was still fishing there, and Big Beard and Gao Wei were also curious about whether Zhao Lan could catch fish from the sea and what kind of fish he would catch.
At this time, a small boat sailed towards the middle of the sea, attracting people's attention. People looked at each other, and another person was favored.
The person on the boat was an old man of some age, with a dusty appearance, and he still maintained a praying posture, but the shock on his face prevented him from recovering for a while.
When Shang Qi came to the middle of the sea, there were other expressions on his face.
It's very strange here. There are people, there are other people, it's so weird, and there are people fishing in the middle of the sea with a small boat. Such a small boat cannot safely withstand the middle of the sea, it should have been overturned in the sea long ago.
Shang Qi became alert.
The bearded man said hello with a loud voice, looked at the other person's clothes, and said: "Lucky traveler, new friend, welcome here."
Shang Qi didn't answer.
He is not one of those hot-blooded, mindless young men.
When encountering an unknown situation, the best choice is to remain silent and don't answer. It is very likely that your answer will guide the other party and bring destruction and disaster.
Don't answer.
Cheng Tongaxe did not get a reply from the other party, and was not annoyed. He seemed to understand the other party's current mood, and continued chatting with Gao Wei: "Recently, the Mercenary Bar issued a commission to acquire old documents."
"I don't know who posted it. Where can the mercenaries in Mercenary City find this thing?"
Zhao Lan, who was fishing, sighed in his heart, who else could have posted it? Hey, he visited several mercenary bars in the mercenary city.
He was casting a net to try his luck. He had money, but his luck didn't seem to be very good, and he didn't stir up a splash.
Lieutenant Gao also said: "The Mercenary City seems to be a little strange recently. Not to mention someone acquiring old documents, I heard that there have been several incidents of contaminant infection."
Cheng Tongaxe: "I've also heard that the cause of death of the deceased is exactly the same. I heard that when he was discovered, many people were frightened."
"Also, the eyes are completely gray."
“I don’t know if it is related to the several infections that occurred some time ago.
Tie. "()

The two of them chatted like normal people, and Shen Yan also liked listening to their gossip.
Shang Qi: "..."
No one paid any attention to him.
Shang Qi hesitated and had to speak. He couldn't stay here forever. There was a caravan of desperate people waiting for him.
"Are you... from the Mercenary City?" he asked cautiously. This was an entry point, because their caravan was heading towards the Mercenary City this time.
The coal mines and salt in the Mercenary City are specialties. The transportation cost of coal mines is too high, and a cart of coal mines cannot be sold for much. Their goal is salt. Transporting salt to cities that are short of salt will earn them a good income.
Cheng Tongaxe was stunned for a moment: "Aren't you from the Mercenary City?"
Your Excellency, can you bring people who are far apart to the same place? Amazing.
Shen Yan was also listening and thought to himself, do the boats at a certain distance also represent distance in reality?
Like a map, scaled down?
The bearded man looked at Shang Qi, who was very cautious, and said, "Brother, you don't have to be so nervous. It's actually a blessing to be here."
Lucky?
Shang Qi didn't take it seriously. He had never heard that encountering a strange incident was a good thing.
Shang Qi organized his words: "You also came here accidentally?"
But why the "leisurely" look? Don't think that he doesn't know anything and just want to expire him.
There was a hint of prying hidden in his tone.
The bearded man grinned: "Are you here by accident? We don't have the ability. We are just a very small number of people who are favored."
The second half of the sentence was particularly loud, as if it was expressing an attitude to someone.
Shang Qi's expression became even weirder. Since he didn't come here by mistake, he didn't come here on his own initiative. In other words, like him, he was forced and had no choice.
But why do these people have no fear of the unknown?
Shang Qi shook his head in a funny way. Why was he worried about all this? He had desperately prayed to the unknown for help. It was ridiculous that he was still worrying about his situation and safety.
Then he quickly said: "Both of you, you are both from the Mercenary City. So, you must be very familiar with the Lost Desert outside the Mercenary City?"
"If you get lost in the Lost Desert, don't know how to get back to the right direction?"
Zhao Landu couldn't help but take a look. It turned out that he was an unlucky guy, a neighbor of the Mercenary City. The desert was a natural barrier. Once he got lost in it, it would be dangerous.
Big Beard and Gao Wei looked at each other: "Look at me, I look like a caravan man."
"Although the Lost Desert is large, it is not easy to trap an experienced caravan that has traveled all year round."
Shang Qi sighed. There was nothing he could not say about his current desperate situation. The most important thing was that he actually met people from the Mercenary City here. This may be the only hope for their caravan.
Shang Qi said: "It is natural for us to get lost in general. Although our caravan is not big, we have been trekking outside all year round and have accumulated some of our own methods of identifying directions."
() The old man said slowly: "This is our first time to do business in the Mercenary City. We often heard that we have to pass through a large crack in the abyss where humans and ghosts are on the road, so we chose a certain distance to travel along the large crack."
"I just didn't expect that the noise of the convoy would still alert the ghosts inside the big crack."
Shen Yan couldn't help but recall the abyss that stretched like a centipede, and how they got out of the car and used a rope to pull the truck through that distance.
The people and ghosts of the abyss are more resistant to humans than the Eldar.
Shang Qi probably also knows why the Mercenary City is relatively close to some cities, but these cities would rather go to farther cities to buy salt than go to the Mercenary City. The abyss that must be passed through is not that far away. Just a few will do.
"We had to flee into the desert."
"I originally thought that I had escaped the pursuit of the abyss ghosts. It is not difficult to re-identify the direction based on our experience."
"But something strange happened. No matter how we walked, we could no longer get out of the desert. The sun, moon and stars seemed to have changed their positions. The surroundings were exactly the same. The wind and sand obscured our sight..."
“We are lost in it, like the name of the desert.”
"Later we encountered a group of mummies crawling in the desert, and the rest was an endless battle with them."
Shang Qi's voice has a sense of vicissitudes of life. Listening to him tell it is like listening to a bizarre story.
Before Cheng Tongxu and Gao Wei could answer, Zhao Lan said in surprise: "Are the desert crawling corpses you saw only the upper half, with the lower half completely sawed off?"
"There is also a very old woman among them. Does that old woman have a green gem on her finger?"
Shang Qi was a little excited: "Brother, do you know where that is? Do you know how to get out of there?"
Zhao Lan spread his hands: "I know, but I'm afraid there are not many people in the entire mercenary city who know how to leave there."
This caravan... was really unlucky to meet an emerald lost in the desert.
Shang Qi quickly asked: "Why?"
Zhao Lan did not answer, but Gao Wei interrupted: "It is said that many years ago, there was a small town built by nobles in the desert. They were the most mysterious residents in the desert."
"But one day, perhaps because of their wealth or some other reason, the people in this small town suffered a brutal disaster. The murderer cut off their lower bodies, leaving them forever crawling in the desert."
"Some people say that they did not die, and the town never disappeared, but the residents inside can only survive in this form."
"These seemingly human and inhuman beings have suffered such a bad fate. Their resentment has formed a curse. Anyone who steps into their territory will be lost and will never find a way out until they die of thirst and starvation."
"Of course, this is just a legend told by the old people in Mercenary City."
"The only person who has been to that desert town recently is the former commander of Mercenary City, the legendary mercenary Zhao Kuo."
"The rumors of the green grandmother came from Zhao Kuo's experience."
"However, you said that it is your first time to run business in the mercenary city. You probably don't know Zhao Kuo. In other words, there is no one who can help you get out of there."
This caravan is indeed unlucky, mercenary
There is a large mercenary group in the city. Because of this legend, the organization went to search for the wealth in this desert town. It was a noble town, and there might be some treasures left behind.
But no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find any trace of this town. I didn't expect that I would be encountered by this old man's caravan.
The person you were looking for couldn't be found, and the unlucky guy who wasn't looking for it accidentally got in.
Shang Qi opened his mouth, with a bitter look on his face. He was not familiar with the mercenary city, let alone knew any legendary mercenaries.
Muttered to himself: "Is there really no other way?"
The bearded man couldn't help but look at each other. The chance of survival was right in front of this man.
To say he was unlucky was to say he was really unlucky, but he was also lucky enough to meet the all-powerful Lord when he was desperate.
Seeing Shang Qi's despair, Gao Wei reminded him: "Actually, apart from Zhao Kuo, there may not be anyone who knows how to get out of there."
Shang Qi was stunned and looked at Gao Wei.
Captain Gao suddenly said: "Do you have old documents? If you do, you can exchange it for a chance to listen to the truth, and you will get the enlightenment you want."
Shang Qi was a little confused. Those old documents could not be found casually.
Shang Qi shook his head, but did not give up: "I have two ewes that are producing milk and two lambs. I wonder if I can get that kind of revelation?"
Gao Wei thought to himself, how could he know what that Excellency meant.
I couldn't help but look at the high mountains. Here, if you are interested in praying for anything, you will naturally respond, and it will be an unimaginably strong response.
Shen Yan was surprised.
From Shang Qi's words, it can be seen that they have at least reached the edge of the abyss. Even if there is only one general direction when escaping, they should not be far from the mercenary city.
Shen Yan looked at the ships on the sea again, which meant that the distance between the ships really reflected the distance in reality.
The distance between the bearded Zhao Lan and the others represents the location of the mercenary city, and the old businessman's location represents a certain place in the lost desert.
So where are the ships further away?
At this time, Shang Qi's conversation just ended.
Shen Yan thought to himself, two ewes producing milk and two lambs?
What a good thing.
The good thing? The livestock that can be raised in the mercenary city are all killed and then sold. The livestock industry is monopolized, which means that even if you have money, you can't buy live livestock.
Although there are only four, they can be considered sustainable assets.
Besides, Zhao Kuo happened to know the location of the desert town and how to get out of there.
It's not that far away, so it's a good deal.
Shang Qi was wondering why everyone else was looking up the mountain.
At this time, the storm rolled in, and the rushing thunder sounded: "Wait."
Because there are only two words, the storm comes suddenly but also disappears quickly.
Shang Qi looked pale and held the still rocking boat. What terrible thing happened just now?
I couldn't react at all for a while.
The boy was desperately trying to catch the fishing rod that had been blown into the sea. He held the boat between his legs and reached out to catch it. As a result, the boat capsized and flopped in the sea. He then righted the overturned boat.
Climbed up again.
It seems that despite being affected by the sudden change just now,
But it doesn't seem surprising.
Big Beard and Gao Wei are much better,
Controlling the swinging boat: "Brother, your Excellency has responded, just prepare the sacrifices and wait."
"It is estimated that you will be able to see us in the Mercenary City in less than two days."
Not a shadow of doubt.
Shang Qi hadn't recovered from the vision just now, and he thought in a daze, "What?"
At this time, other people's boats began to back up and leave the middle of the sea.
Only then did Shang Qi remember the sound in the thunder just now, and couldn't help but look towards the stars on the mountain, the gate, the huge eye pattern, and the blurry figure in the starlight.
Before he could react, the sea began to turn upside down, the heaven and earth began to overturn, and the thunder that destroyed the world came to the world.
"I, don't look directly at me!"
"My name is indescribable!"
Only then did Shang Qi remember that he had prayed to the unknown in despair. God, he really saw the unknown. The figure in the starlight was the embodiment of disaster and misfortune.
Shang Qi was shocked by the end of the world. When he came to his senses, he was already in the desert, surrounded by yellow sand, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion and not real at all.
He was still in a desperate situation, but for some reason, something strange was sprouting in his heart. Did the unknown existence hear his prayer?
Could that "wait" be the revelation to him from those people in the mercenary city?
Confused, at a loss, and in disbelief.
The people in the caravan seemed to notice that something was wrong with Shang Qi. Someone asked, "Dad Shang, are you okay? Those damn crawling corpses will probably come again later."
"It's useless for us to resist them endlessly."
But no one knows how to get out of here.
Fighting spirit and courage are slowly disappearing, and even the desire to survive is beginning to disappear. They cannot hold on for long.
Shang Qi came back to his senses, opened his mouth, and finally said: "Wait."
"Also, take good care of our four sheep."
His only hope now can only be pinned on the incredible thing just now. Anyway, he has no other choice.
Caravan man: "?"
At this time... why are you still caring about the sheep?
Shang Qi didn't explain anything anymore, because the majestic warning sound was still echoing in his ears.
…
At this time, Shen Yan was walking towards Zhao Kuo's bed, and it was time for the night chat in the warehouse.
Shen Yan stretched out his hand and then retracted it.
Zhao Kuo was waiting for Shen Yan to shake him, but he didn't wait. What happened to this child tonight?
Shen Yan shouted softly: "Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo."
Zhao Kuo ignored him and didn't shake him and said nothing.
In fact, from these days' experience, Shen Yan knew that Zhao Kuo must be listening.
Shen Yan said with bright eyes: "Do you want four sheep, two ewes that are producing milk, and two lambs?"
Zhao Kuo was stunned, this is a good thing, even if you have money, you can't buy it.
He couldn't help but turn around and look at Shen Yan: "You went to the mercenary bar? Who posted the mission and gave such a generous reward?"
After speaking, he added:
"No, there are several mercenary groups that raise sheep in the mercenary city. They can't use it as payment."
Shen Yan: "Anyway... there is such a task anyway, will you accept it?"
Shen Yan said carefully: "In the Lost Desert, there was a caravan. They accidentally entered a legendary town in the desert and encountered a crawling corpse wearing an emerald on its hand."
Zhao Kuo was stunned: "Green grandmother?"
Shen Yan nodded: "Yes, it's the Green Emerald. The current situation of the caravan is probably not very good. They promised that whoever shows them the direction will be rewarded with four sheep."
"I thought, the distance shouldn't be too far, and you happen to be familiar with the road, so the reward won't be in vain."
Zhao Kuo got up from the bed and looked at Shen Yan. The mission sounded like a rare mission indeed, and the reward was even more attractive. It was normal for mercenaries to go on missions, but...how did Shen Yan know about this mission?
Zhao Kuo's eyes could see holes in people. He stretched out his hand and couldn't help but poke Shen Yan: "Who told you about this mission?"
Shen Yan didn't answer and just lay on Zhao Kuo's bed as soft as a noodle.
The fingers... are so strong and powerful. If you do it with fingers like this, I guess...
Zhao Kuo: "?"
Shen Yan finally straightened up: "If we don't go, the sheep will probably die in the desert."
Zhao Kuo poked Shen Yan again.
Shen Yan softened again.
Zhao Kuo frowned: "Sequelae?"
Shen Yan thought to himself, he actually guessed this damn guy, but he didn't completely guess it. Besides, he wouldn't immediately turn into a soft-footed shrimp if anyone touched him, or at least he would have to be a strong and muscular man. Just fine.
Hey, no matter who fights in the future, the scene is destined to be strange.
Zhao Kuo got off the bed and walked outside.
Shen Yan looked at the sky: "Where are you going so late?"
Zhao Kuo: "Go get the sheep."
Shen Yan also followed, got into the truck, and drove to the desert outside the city.
In fact, there are still some problems, such as the reward, if Shen Yan and his mercenary group raise it, some information will definitely be exposed.
But there is no way, it is impossible to kill the sheep secretly.
Moreover, many people in the mercenary city know about it, but only Zhao Kuo knows about that small desert town.
town location.
Shen Yan thought to himself that it was only a matter of time before Zhao Kuo was exposed, so he used Zhao Kuo to block the hole of the gun. Zhao Kuo didn't know anything anyway and would only be mistaken for one of the favored people working for the unknown.
Let Zhao Kuo poke him just now.
What Shen Yan should be worried about now is that the dry food prepared by Zhao Kuo will have to eat wheat cakes again, but judging from the amount of water Zhao Kuo brought, it shouldn't take long.
The truck drove out of the city in the dark night, and then drove into the vast desert.
The sand in the desert is very solid, and the truck wheels are big, so you don’t have to worry about getting stuck in them.
But driving in the desert is not an easy task. The sand dunes are not as flat as imagined, and they cannot be stayed for a long time. The flying sand will soon submerge the stopped truck, even if it is just submerged. Wheels will also be very troublesome.
The weather in the desert has been wild lately.
As for the people in the car, Shen Yan didn't want to talk. Zhao Lan drove so wildly that he was driving so fast.
The shaking made him feel like he was vomiting and having diarrhea. Let alone eating, he had no appetite at all, so he just drank some water when he was thirsty.
In the vast desert, a fast-moving truck drove across the desert for two days.
Shen Yan asked: "Aren't you walking along the abyss?"
Zhao Kuo nodded.
Shen Yan thought to himself that the caravan must have been chased by humans and ghosts in the abyss for a long time, and it was too far away.
The desert was very desolate, and only at night there were some creatures that Shen Yan couldn't understand.
Shen Yan was completely confused and didn't know how Zhao Kuo could tell the direction.
"The wind and sand ahead are a bit heavy," Shen Yan said.
Zhao Kuo didn't answer, but parked the truck directly in front of the sand: "We're here."
Shen Yan was stunned for a moment. The wind and sand made the sky darken, but the stars could still be vaguely seen.
Zhao Kuo actually had doubts about what Shen Yan said, but if there was really a caravan trapped inside waiting for rescue, he only needed to go in and take a look to find out.
So you don’t need to express any doubts, just confirm them yourself.
The two dressed up, covered their mouths and noses, and walked in.
The wind and sand were so strong that it was difficult to move. Shen Yan hid behind Zhao Kuo's tall body and thus avoided some resistance.
There seemed to be a little light in the dark wind and sand, and the two of them walked in the direction of the light.
Shen Yan looked at Zhao Kuo in front of him. With his inspiration beyond ordinary people, he saw that Zhao Kuo's body seemed to be burning with white flames, driving away some weird things around him.
Shen Yan thought to himself, is it because of these weird things that people get lost here forever?
It's like forming a special domain, um, commonly known as a ghost wall?
The light was not far away. When Shen Yan and the others arrived, there were still sounds of fighting, and a convoy was surrounded by a group of mummies with only half of their bodies left.
The sound made by the mummy made Shen Yan's face turn pale.
"stay!"
"stay!"
"With grandma."
…
Shang Qi's situation was extremely bad. Two days later, they were still spinning in circles.
It's not because of the lack of rations or water. They have encountered situations where food was even more scarce than they are now, but saving some can always last longer.
However, there is no direction, no hope, and they have to keep fighting with the weird mummies, which makes them more and more tired inside, as desolate as this desert.
As mercenaries, they knew that this state was abnormal and must have been affected by something, weakening their fighting spirit and making them give up resistance, but they could not control this low thought.
Perhaps, they will soon die trapped here because they have lost their fighting spirit.
On the other hand, Father Shang, who usually has a very dull personality, now feels particularly strong, as if there is a belief supporting him, which is strange.
If Father Shang hadn't kept encouraging them, saying that they still had hope of living, they would have died long ago. No matter how you asked, Father Shang couldn't tell what the hope of living was.
What's even more strange is that every once in a while, Father Shang will ask if the sheep is dead.
It's so weird, it's like being possessed by an evil spirit
So, maybe, everyone is abnormal now. ()

Emptiness, nothing but emptiness.
At this time, a sound suddenly came from the side, which brought a little surprise to this unchanged place.
They were two people, two people wearing sandproof robes, with only one pair of eyes visible from their entire bodies.
Shang Qi and the rest of the group are also unlucky ghosts like them who accidentally entered this place? What's the use? Still can't get out.
As soon as Shen Yan saw Shang Qi, he knew they were in the right place.
Shen Yan revealed his body from behind Zhao Kuo, stretched out the eye pattern on his palm, and said to Shang Qi: "Where is the sheep? Let's get the sheep."
Everyone was stunned, what kind of sheep?
Only Shang Qi's eyes, which were a little cloudy at first, suddenly brightened up, extremely bright.
That eye pattern, my god...
The unknown person really heard his prayer and came to collect the sacrifice.
It was unbelievable that when he was in despair, an unknown person who represented doom and disaster really gave him a revelation.
No, it’s not just revelation, it guides people to save them.
Shang Qi trembled: "Sheep, by the way, where is the sheep? Give it to them quickly."
Everyone opened their mouths. In the past two days, they also knew that Father Shang was particularly concerned about those sheep, as if he was preparing for this moment.
But...Dad Shang has been with them all the time. How is it possible? When did he get in touch with other people and even make a deal?
Four sheep were brought out, two big and two small.
Even though Shang Qi ordered people to take care of them, because the situation was really difficult, the four sheep were a little thin from hunger, a little dehydrated, and listless.
But still four live sheep.
The corners of Zhao Kuo's mouth raised. He could earn four sheep from just one trip. This was such a good deal.
Of course, it's also a good deal for this caravan, because if he doesn't come, this caravan will only have one ending, being trapped and dead here.
So Zhao Kuo took Shen Yan forward to get the sheep, feeling at ease.
The mummies who trapped the caravan did not react at all when Zhao Kuo stepped forward.
The people in the caravan were surprised to find that the mummies that were constantly attacking them stopped attacking when the two men appeared.
Hiss, it's the soul realm, at least the soul realm that only mercenaries in the extremely high prologue have to suppress aberrations.
This man's strength was probably even greater than they imagined.
Shen Yan actually "saw" it. The white flames on Zhao Kuo's body spread throughout the space, solidifying some abnormal things around him, just like those mummies. They were really mummies, just lying there. There is no difference from ordinary dried mummies.
Zhao Kuo held the ropes tied up with the four sheep with his rough gloves, looked at them, and then said: "Let's go, follow."
Since you have received payment, you must complete the task. This is also a rule for mercenaries. Although mercenaries who abide by this rule will act according to the situation.
There were few words, but the whole bodies of the caravan members were shaken, and Shang Qi shouted: "Quick, get in the car and follow them."
if...if
() if things go well,
They should be saved.
This is the guidance under the unknown arrangement,
Shang Qi thought to himself that he had encountered such a bizarre and mysterious incident.
However, Zhao Kuo suddenly stopped, then walked towards the mummies and picked up a half-body with an emerald on it, which should be the grandmother.
Shen Yan thought that Zhao Kuo just went to get the ring, and that was how part of the mercenary's wealth came from, which was nothing, but Zhao Kuo also brought back the half of the body.
While walking outside, Zhao Kuo whispered: "No matter what profession, only by being constantly proficient and familiar with the corresponding skills can you be promoted to the next chapter."
"As a Corpse Whisperer, you need a good corpse to practice your 'skills' on."
Shen Yan understood, it was just like brushing up on skill proficiency.
As for the old wizard Uther's arm, Shen Yan didn't even know if it was a corpse or something else, but it was too easy to communicate with and was not suitable to be used to familiarize him with the Corpse Whisperer.
Shen Yan thought to herself, grandma is just grandma, even though she is only half-length, she looks a bit scary.
Zhao Kuo and Shen Yan just walked out of the land shrouded in wind and sand.
The people in the caravan following behind looked at each other, wondering how they could get out of the trapped area so easily.
Of course, they also knew in their hearts that with their help, they would still be trapped there.
Shen Yan took the sheep's rope and led the truck. Zhao Kuo got into the cab, started it and drove away.
Shen Yan was stunned and asked, "Aren't you going to lead them?"
"He" finally responded to the old businessman's request and obtained the sacrifice, but failed to accomplish anything else and still let these people die in the desert.
Zhao Kuo: "They are an experienced caravan, and they still have some food in the car. As long as they can see the stars, they can tell the direction."
Shen Yan was relieved. This was good so that the other party could not tell the identity of himself and Zhao Kuo.
Zhao Kuo: "You haven't said yet how you knew someone was trapped here and how you knew the specific reward?"
Shen Yan: "Just listen to what the people in the city say. Those people are very gossipy."
Zhao Kuo chuckled: "Nonsense."
Shen Yan quickly changed the subject: "I'm going to feed the sheep and drink some water, but don't die on the way."
At this time, Shang Qi and his team were also moving forward according to the identified direction.
"Dad Shang, where did you find this person?"
"I just asked why Father Shang always asked me to take care of the sheep. I'm still confused."
"That man's strength is a bit scary. Don't you think so? Those mummies suddenly stopped moving."
"Dad Shang? Daddy Shang?"
Shang Qi came back to his senses, with a mysterious look on his face: "Why are you asking so many questions? Your father travels all over the world, and there are always some connections that you don't know about."
Someone said: "No, no matter how powerful the relationship is, you still have to spread the news. We are trapped inside and can't contact anyone at all."
Shang Qi thought to himself that naturally he couldn't contact anyone, because what he came into contact with was not a human being at all.
However, what's going on with these guys? It's getting harder and harder to lead the team. They still ask random questions. This is not a rush to die.
Shang Qi was actually a little uneasy. Although he was out of trouble, the unknown symbolized misfortune and disaster. He just paid four
Just a sheep?
Now thinking about his dream-like encounter in that unknown land, there are still too many questions. According to the people in the mercenary city, as long as there are old documents, one can still listen to the unknown truth. And revelation?
Also, if he goes to the mercenary city, he won't really be able to see people from that mercenary city, right?
Why does it feel a little different from the stories and poems he has heard about predicting the unknown? It seems that predicting the unknown will not necessarily lead to death, but it can also... be particularly lucky to be favored.
It’s outrageous even when I think about it.
Shang Qi thought to himself that it must be a bizarre encounter in his life that cannot be explained. Maybe there are more mercenaries who have suffered like this, but they can't explain it.
He felt that once he said it out loud, the so-called luck really turned into misfortune and disaster.
He should be thankful that he would think of this bizarre experience from time to time in the future.
"Dad Shang, tell us, who is that powerful mercenary?"
Shang Qi looked mysterious, how could he know.
Shen Yan and Zhao Kuo were much faster than Shang Qi and his caravan, and they returned to the mercenary city in two days.
The four sheep are in much better condition. Why?
Because Shen Yan secretly broke his wheat cakes and gave them to the sheep.
So, just after arriving at the city gate, Shen Yan jumped out of the car and ran to the noodle shop: "Quick, quick, bring me two buns and a bowl of porridge."
Whatever comes soon, he can't wait.
Locust Cub quickly picked up two buns and brought them over: "Shen Yan, where have you and the commander been these two days?"
Why did he look like a starving ghost when he came back?
Shen Yan gnawed on the buns and drank the porridge: "You will know when you go back and take a look."
After taking two bites, he chewed slowly and then looked at the business in the shop: "Our new dishes are selling well."
Locust Cub's eyes widened with a smile: "More and more people from the upper city area are coming to us to try our new dishes."
"It's only been a few days. Aunt Dong said that if we wait for a while, the business will be better."
"At first, some people said that our new dishes were too expensive. Well, even if they didn't look at how expensive meat is now, Jiang Yu even told them that if it didn't taste good, he would just smash the bowl without them having to do anything."
"Then, people who have tasted our new dishes, including many repeat customers in the past two days, all say they are delicious."
When the locust cub talks about the business in the shop, he can chatter for a long time.
The children of Sun Zi also gathered around and nodded.
"There are still people who want to see why our soup tastes so good. Aunt Dong always covers the soup pot tightly so that no one can take a peek."
In fact, the current business is still based on pickled cabbage noodles and vegetarian steamed buns, and it will take some time to cultivate consumption habits.
Shen Yan listened to the chatter of several children and probably understood the current situation in the shop. Everything was making steady progress.
After Shen Yan finished eating, he was going to bring some steamed buns back to Zhao Kuo. The wheat cakes really made people cry.
The locust cub didn't see Shen Yan for a few days, so he ran after Shen Yan.
Shen Yan thought to himself, let them go back and see the new members of the family. The joy will be doubled if it is shared, haha.
When I returned to the warehouse, that arm was still there.
Basking in the sun.
The locust cubs and others saw the "new member" at the first glance.
Half of my grandmother's body lay in the corner.
Shen Yan coughed: "This... also counts."
It's too scary.
At a quick glance, I saw the mummy of an old woman in the corner, only half of it.
But the people in the Haw Par Mercenary Group seem to be very accustomed to such scenes. They must have been exposed to it since childhood. For example, if one arm is fine and hangs from the window, no one thinks it's a big deal.
Bamboo was the first to notice something was wrong in another corner. He tilted his head and took a look with stomping steps.
Then, there were screams of joy.
"It's a sheep!"
"Hahaha, it's a sheep!"
The sheep are now a little thin and cannot be milked. Zhao Kuo has already prepared some wild vegetables for them to eat. There is no way, there is no fodder at all today.
The next time was filled with the sounds of several children who were so happy that they couldn't stop.
Children have no ability to resist these things. Besides, sheep are much more valuable than ordinary pets.
Even at night, when the other members of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group came back, they were surprised for a long time.
This kind of animal is not something you can buy with money. Their mercenary group actually started raising sheep.
Life seems to be getting better bit by bit visibly.
Logically, Shen Yan should seize the time to learn language and writing from Uther, and use his grandmother's corpse to practice his skills as a corpse whisperer, but he was really tired from running around in the desert for the past two days.
At night, Shen Yan thought about whether the people in the caravan could get out of the desert safely.
…
Shang Qi's team has a direction, and the yellow sand is not that big anymore.
So they have seen what the Mercenary City looks like from a distance, which is really inspiring. Maybe they can get there tomorrow.
Shang Qi also breathed a sigh of relief. In the past two days, he had been worried about whether more terrible bad luck and disaster would befall him.
As a result, it was a safe journey.
That's right, that bizarre experience has become a dream, but the dream may not end like this, because he will soon go to the mercenary city, and he doesn't know if he will really be able to see the unknown land he once saw. Live personally.
After all, we have the same experience, and we are obviously strangers, but it just feels different, as if there is an invisible bond.
As for Shen Yan, he originally planned to go into the fantasy world to see how Shang Qi and his team were doing, but just when he was lying on the bed, a sad aura surrounded him and he couldn't calm down.
It was the sound, the sound of the corpse, that put him in this sad atmosphere.
Shen Yan hesitated and walked to the window sill, using the light of the kerosene lamp on the window sill to look at a corner outside.
I don't know when there is an additional chair, a half of the old woman is sitting on the chair, serene, sad, and silent, but Shen Yan can hear the sound of the body.
In addition to sorrow, there are pain, just like some painful criminal law.
Shen Yan rubbed the temples, and he was inspired by high, too easy to enjoy the body.
In that corner, there is a bit of reflective green point, which should be the ring on the finger of the emerald's body, but in addition to that green light, there are some red things looming under the light. If it is not light, you can't see such reflection. .
Shen Yan thought about it, and said to Zhao Kuo in the warehouse: "I'll see the corpse of my grandmother, I seem to feel something."
Of course, he was afraid of encountering danger.
Then mention the kerosene lamp and go out.
The swaying lights shine on the grandmother on the chair, and there were some cold in the night.
That green point is indeed the reflection of that ring, but the scarlet color is like a metal.
Shen Yan put the lamp a little closer, and then found that the scarlet was a sword's horn, so it was hidden in the grandmother's dry corpse skin.
The lower half of this corpse seemed to be cut off by any bluntware, and it was not regular, so it should not be a sword injury.
So this scarlet long sword was hidden in the body before the death of the deceased, so as not to let the murderer or other people discover it?
Shen Yan was very surprised that his discovery was actually so strange to Tibetan swords, so the sound of this body was so painful?
Shen Yan thought for a while, reached out and held the hoe, and pulled this strange sword out of the corpse of the grandmother.
As the sword body slowly pulled out, the grandmother's face showed a kind smile, and the smile bloomed in the eyes of Shen Yan. !
