Yumen Pass.
There was a steady stream of caravan travelers going in and out of the pass. In recent days, for some reason, the weather in the Longmen Desert was not very good. Sandstorms filled the air and the atmosphere was hazy. The abnormal weather forced many people to give up their adventure.
But one team flew past Yumen Pass without hesitation and flew into the sandstorm...
There was an old man at the front of the team holding a jade pot. There was a beetle in the jade pot that was always heading in a certain direction. The Kurobe master wearing a Jiuli costume was flying quickly, looking at the endless sandstorm with trembling eyes.
Jiuli has a hot and humid climate with abundant rainfall. We have seen heavy rains and drizzles, but we have never seen this sandstorm.
The sky was blocked by the sun, flying sand and rocks were whimpering. The Kurobe master who originally looked down upon the desert looked ugly. His personal power was extremely small in front of such power of heaven and earth.
Flying upward to about the height of the clouds, you can see the bright blue sky and the dazzling sunlight, while below you can see a dim yellow sandstorm like waves undulating.
If you fly too high, the Gu insect will automatically sleep, and you will have no choice but to fly forward against the sandstorm.
The sandstorm surged upwards, and the team drilled into the sand, and then emerged from the other side with a little dust. It was like entering a deep pit of a sandstorm, surrounded by rolling yellow sand and only the sky above them was as blue as a well. They drilled in again In the undulating storm, the strong wind howled like a ghost. They desperately wanted to return to the Southern Wilderness, even to the Central Plains.
After walking through sandstorms continuously, my face was covered with sand, and half of my spit was filled with sand.
The naked Jiuli costume is not suitable for the desert. Although the master doesn't care, it is still a bit uncomfortable...
Dragon Inn.
Bai Yujun was sitting on the first floor drinking tea. The tea was his own. The tea in the inn was too cheap and tasted bad.
I held a branch in my hand and turned it over, and I accidentally noticed that the landlady had a strange look on her face. She always pretended to stare at the branch casually. Could it be that she stayed in Longmen Desert just for this legendary tree in the desert?
A certain Bai grew up in the Southern Wilderness, and because he often climbed trees, he knew the growth habits of trees very well.
First of all, the tree itself does not lack water and nutrients. The lack of water is very obvious in the details. At the same time, it is not ravaged by strong winds. The growth characteristics of trees that are often blown by the wind are obvious. Then the key is, where in the desert? There is plenty of water, fertile soil and no strong winds? Are the trees still in the desert?
After rummaging around, I didn't see any more doorways, so I just took the storage bag back.
He raised his eyes and looked at the four zombie-like evil cultivators. The Gu worms were agitated. It seemed that the Kurobe master had entered the Longmen Desert. Very good. The tail should be dealt with as soon as possible.
I wanted to use my fingers to guess how many days it would take to arrive, but after squeezing the dragon's claws for a long time, no flowers came out.
boring……
If you don't have any fun, you can only create fun by yourself, such as teasing the passengers in the inn.
Wagging his tail, he came to the table of ghosts and took a serious look at the jet-black body under the hood of the cloak. This dead ghost was almost condensed into a solid body, and his moral skills were not shallow.
"Hey, I'm Bai Yao, what's your name?"
The ghost was stunned for a moment and nodded to say hello. Unexpectedly, the sound was like two pieces of glass rubbing against each other.
"Montenegro……"
"Old Ghost of Montenegro? No, no, you should be Old Ghost of Montenegro. Tell me how you died back then. Tell it to make everyone happy."
"..."
"It's not a good habit to be silent. To act like a ghost, you have to act like a ghost. Haven't you heard that you talk nonsense all the time?"
He turned to look at the other table of scorpion spirits and lizard monsters. He was especially interested in lizards. Since everyone was a reptile, it was a bit of a bond. They were much closer than humans.
There is a trick to deal with lizards. Pull a small piece of dried meat and throw it in front of the lizard monster...
Whoosh!
The lizard demon's almost instinctive reflex stuck out its tongue to stick to the meat and then retracted it into its mouth. The speed was similar to the explosive speed of a snake, making it easier to catch flying insects.
You can't see the expression on the lizard head, otherwise it would be wonderful.
Turning to look at Scorpion, he saw that Scorpion lowered his head without speaking or opening his eyes. Everyone in the inn understood that this unidentified monster was just messing around for fun, and actually asked a ghost to talk about how he died in order to make everyone happy. Since when has death been a happy thing?
Every place has its own rules.
The desert is difficult to navigate and is full of dangers. Human guides always have shortcomings of one kind or another, but the monsters in the desert are the best guides and guards. As long as they are given enough benefits, they can safely cross the desert. There are many monsters in the desert. Earn benefits from this, elixirs, weapons, and even techniques.
The dangerous desert is no different to the local monsters in their own back garden. They work as guides, guards, and even deliver letters and find people. The business is very hot and has a monopoly nature.
In the outside world, people shout to destroy demons, but when they come to the desert, they cooperate happily.
After teasing the demons and monsters, their eyes were fixed on the handsome man and beautiful woman. Who asked them to wear light white clothes, which was too conspicuous.
On the other side, the four evil cultivators simply lowered their heads and buried their faces like the Scorpion Spirit.
The elegant woman looks like a legendary martial arts master. She wears an expensive white gauze skirt, a sword inlaid with gold and jade, and her hair is not tied up with a piece of cloth but with a jade hairpin. She looks good whether she is standing, walking or lying down. With his natural nobility and generous and elegant manners, he stands out among the Longmen Inn in a room full of monsters, monsters and rough men.
The woman rolled her eyes and turned to look aside. A certain Jiao Jilaisu was sitting at the same table. The man nodded and smiled as a greeting.
"Why did you two fellow Taoists come to the Longmen Desert? This place is arid, hot and has sandstorms. Can you tell me about it? Maybe I know something."
The heroine snorted.
"Who is your Taoist friend? Monster!"
The reaction is normal. No one in the Central Plains can get used to and accept monsters. Even Bai Yujun is just a passerby in the human world in the Central Plains. After all, the species are different.
The man smiled and didn't take it seriously, showing his slickness.
"To be honest, my brother and sister are on this treasure hunt. It is said that someone has seen mysterious ruins in the Longmen Desert, but after the sandstorm passed, there was no trace."
There is no surprise in the answer. It is said that there are countless cities buried in the Longmen Desert. Many people accidentally found the ruins after the storm and benefited from it, either becoming rich or improving their cultivation.
"Didn't you ask those natives?"
Bai Yujun pointed his chin at the scorpion lizard monsters. They were more familiar with the Longmen Desert than humans.
"I asked, but I don't know where they are. I guess those ruins are probably buried very deep and will only appear after the storm. Therefore, the sandstorm outside the door for several days is rare."
Looking at the roaring sandstorm outside the door, Bai Yujun didn't think it was rare. He could do it as long as he was tired at night...
Ordinary people would not hesitate to take risks in search of treasure. These two elegant masters from the Central Plains did not look like the kind of people who would fight against the odds, and they could not force people to tell the truth. Anyway, it was fine if they were not enemies, and it didn't matter if they were enemies. There was no shortage of places to bury corpses in the desert.
"Haha~ It's good to make a fortune. I just like digging for gold and treasure. By the way, I don't know if you are interested in glazed crystals. I'll sell them alive if the price is reasonable."
The merchant is possessed by the spirit...
