"Who!?" After the door was knocked, the person in the room asked immediately, the voice was a little old, but very powerful.
After hearing the response, the middle-aged man immediately replied: "I am looking for Domat, Arahant Domat. Someone told me to come here to find him."
After hearing this, the people in the room walked out of the room and came to the courtyard. However, they did not open the courtyard door, but asked again: "Who told you to come here to find him?"
At this time, Chen Mo was standing next door, separated by a wall. After hearing the movement, his consciousness naturally swept over. I found out that this man was a local. He looked about fifty or sixty years old, but he was energetic, had a rosy face, and walked very powerfully.
The old man has thick beard marks, but they have been shaved cleanly. Originally, growing a thick beard was a common behavior in the local area. However, due to some special reasons, a special regulation was issued throughout Jiang Province, that is, all men cannot grow beards or thick beards, and women cannot wear the national characteristic Musa.
With the passage of this regulation, all bearded men have become green-skinned.
However, for this old man, his shaved face, although weathered, looks much younger. Coupled with the local characteristic almond flower hat on his head, he looks exactly like Uncle Afanti.
"A guy named Groundhog said it." The middle-aged man replied after hearing it.
When the old man heard what the groundhog said, he nodded, then opened the gate of the yard and said: "Welcome, friends from afar." He then performed a chest-raising salute: "Hello."
When the middle-aged man saw the old man opening the courtyard gate and doing a courtesy to himself, he followed the local characteristics and gave a chest-supporting salute in return, saying: "Hello, may I ask you..."
"I am the Duomaiti you said." After Duomaiti straightened his back, his face returned to calmness, and he said to the middle-aged man: "Come in, if there is anything, let's go to the house and talk."
"Oh! Hello, Duomaiti..."
"Just ask me to buy more."
After saying that, he stuck his head out and looked at the situation near the courtyard door. After finding that everything was normal, he immediately closed the courtyard door and stretched out his hand to signal: "Please follow me."
After all three people entered the room, Chen Mo walked to the top of Duomaiti's room, and then sat down quietly, wanting to hear what they had to say.
Although their voices were relatively low due to the roof in the room, for Chen Mo, everything was not a problem. As long as you calm down and listen, you can hear it very clearly.
After the three of them entered the room, Duomaiti took out cups for them, poured two cups of milk tea, placed them in front of them, and said, "It's starting to get cold outside now. Come on, drink some milk tea to warm yourself up."
The middle-aged man and the young man who followed him looked at each other, and then thanked Duomaiti, but made no move to reach for the cup to drink milk tea.
"Tell me, what do you want to see me for? The things that Marmot introduces are usually very big. Maybe I can't bear it at all." Duomaiti didn't care whether the two of them drank milk tea or not. They all drank it anyway.
After finishing speaking, I poured myself a cup of milk tea, then blew on the cup a few times, took a sip directly along the edge of the cup, and then picked up the steamed buns on the table with great satisfaction and put it to my mouth. inside.
The dumplings are very crispy and make a crunching sound.
The middle-aged people had been observing Duomaiti since they entered the room, but in the end they didn't notice any difference.
He is a warrior on the tenth level of acquired life. To ordinary people, he is a noble warrior, and because of his status as a warrior, he looks down upon ordinary people.
Before today, he was too lazy to speak to ordinary people, and he didn't even want to speak to ordinary people.
However, he is still relatively amiable to some armed personnel in the family and some ordinary people with special talents. After all, if the family develops, he will also benefit from it.
When he came here today and saw this man named Duomaiti, he found the familiar smell of blood on his body, as well as the faintly oppressive eyes, which showed that this ordinary old man had few lives in his hands. , will not have such an attitude.
Especially when receiving him, although he was very polite, he was always on guard against himself. When talking to yourself, always keep a distance of about two meters, and when you ask the two of you to enter the yard, avoid them sideways, and stick your head out to observe the surrounding situation.
Also, even though the old man welcomed them warmly, since he saw the two of them, his left hand had been hidden under the suffix of his clothes on his back. In this regard, the middle-aged man naturally knew that Duomaiti's left hand had been holding a knife on his waistband.
How insecure is this to have such an expression?
But the middle-aged man doesn't care about this. Anyway, even if the old man fights with him, he will still win.
If a martial artist of the tenth level is not an innate master, then people of this level can be said to have no problem running rampant in the martial arts world.
I thought that I had to ask this person for help, so I just thought about it and didn't take any action.
"Duomaiti, since you asked like this, I won't be nagging you anymore. I'm looking for you because I want you to take our people and set out together to find the ancient city of Xiye." The middle-aged man said.
When he heard about Xiye Ancient City, Duomaiti stopped chewing the rice dumplings, then immediately swallowed the food in his mouth, picked up the milk tea without caring about the heat, and after taking a big gulp, he said: "I, I I don’t know about Xiye Ancient City. If you are looking for this so-called Xiye Ancient City, then go find someone else.”
There was also an expression of rejection on his face, and his eyes were a little fluctuating.
Especially when I just heard about Xiye Ancient City, my eyes flickered unconsciously.
At this time, the middle-aged man seemed a little relaxed. He picked up the milk tea cup and took a sip before saying: "You are the best guide in the entire desert. Moreover, the prairie dog told me that the entire desert area, the only one who wants to find Xiye Ancient City is you."
"Also, the groundhog told me that you had seen the ancient city of Xiye before." The middle-aged man said.
After hearing the middle-aged man's words, Duomaiti didn't answer. Instead, he ate his rice dumplings and drank milk tea in silence, as if he didn't understand the middle-aged man's words.
The whole room became quiet, and only two people were left eating and drinking. The young people could only watch, but they did not dare to eat or drink at all.
He has already reached the fourth level of acquired cultivation, but he has no idea how the next thing will happen and proceed. But he had to stand in the underground passage where the two men were fighting, and just wait quietly.
After a long while, Duomaiti seemed to be talking to himself, or to the middle-aged man: "I didn't expect that the groundhog would say anything to you. If I had known that this would be the result, then at that time I shouldn’t have saved him.”
After saying that, his demeanor recovered somewhat, but he did not eat or drink. Instead, he looked at the middle-aged man, his expression suddenly changed, and he muttered: "No wonder! No wonder!"
"What's so strange? Can you explain it?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Haha, if you want to know, why don't you introduce yourself? Although I know you are a warrior, there is nothing to avoid here." Duomaiti said.
The middle-aged man was startled. He found that this Duomaiti didn't seem to be as hospitable as the groundhog said. But thinking that he had not introduced himself since he entered the room, he nodded and said slowly: "My name is Zhou Ke, from Kyoto. He is my cousin, named Zhou Hai."
The simple introduction revealed that the middle-aged man did not want to make his identity public.
When Chen Mo heard outside that it was Zhou Ke, who was from Kyoto, he was a little scratched his head. Who knows who He Jing is, living in the heat of water.
After Duomaiti heard this, he still had no expression. He clapped his hands and said to Zhou Ke: "Although your introduction is simple, I am not blind."
"Just based on the way you walk, your behavioral habits, etc., I have already judged that you two should be domestic warriors!?" Duomai asked.
After Zhou Ke heard this, he nodded and lamented that Duomaiti was such a character that he could actually know the identity of a warrior. You must know that things about warriors are not disclosed at all. Ordinary people do not realize that there are extraordinary people like warriors in their lives.
But he didn't expect that this Duomaiti would see another side of the world by virtue of his identity as an ordinary person.
"Yes, we are warriors, but why do you ask like this?" Zhou Ke asked.
"Perhaps, only warriors can enter there. After ordinary people go in, they can't get out." Domat said with emotion.
"No, didn't you come out?" Zhou Ke said.
Duomaiti nodded, seeming to be recalling, with a somewhat unclear expression.
Finally, he said: "Although I came out from there, everyone who was with me that time did not come out. We were only detecting on the outside and had not entered the inside, so I was the only one left. "
"It's a little strange and a little scary." Duomaiti said.
"Then can you briefly introduce it to me?" Zhou Ke asked.
Duomaiti nodded and said: "That was ten years ago. Because someone wanted to do research on some ancient buildings and ancient ruins in the Western Regions, they hired me as a guide. But I didn't expect that it was fine a few days ago. , the climate in the desert changed its face immediately. Not only did the temperature drop quickly, but there were also sand blasts."
"Due to the sand explosion and the sudden change in climate, we had to risk going back early. But I lost my way and led everyone on a difficult trek during the sand explosion."
"What I didn't expect was that I lost my way this time and unexpectedly found the disappeared ancient city of Xiye."
