In the endless yellow sand, a young man carrying a huge black ruler on his back, shirtless and only wearing shorts, was walking slowly, leaving a long series of deep footprints in the sand under his feet.
"Okay, today's training is almost over." At this time, an old voice sounded in the young man's ears.
After hearing these words, the young man felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He lay exhausted in the sea of hot sand, breathing heavily.
"Ah! I'm too lazy to move a finger!" The young man was enjoying the rest of his life. Even in such a harsh external environment, it was so comfortable for him at this time.
"Look at you like this, you can't bear even a little pain." Seeing the young man's decadent look, the old man was a little dissatisfied.
At this time, the young man suddenly stood up and complained: "Teacher, is this a little bit of pain? It's been a month!"
The two people speaking were naturally Xiao Yan and Yao Lao. They had been staying in Tagor Desert for nearly a month now.
Originally, Xiao Yan could walk out of the desert soon, but Yao Lao wanted him to stay in this inhospitable place for a while longer.
This is especially true after occasionally encountering some snake-human teams, which is euphemistically called: experience.
However, this effect is also good. Xiao Yan's cultivation level has been successfully promoted from a two-star fighting master in the Warcraft Mountains to a three-star fighting master.
"Teacher, how long do we have to stay in this desert? It's so boring here!" Xiao Yan asked slightly bored while smearing some kind of red liquid on his body and feeling the pain on the surface of his body.
He had been in the Tagor Desert for a long time, and Xiao Yan really didn't like such a training place that was more uncomfortable than the Warcraft Mountains.
As far as the eye can see, there are continuous sand dunes, and from time to time, the remains and bones buried under the yellow sand are exposed. Compared with the dangers in the Warcraft Mountains, the biggest feature of the Tagore Desert is probably its desolation.
If it weren't for the fact that he occasionally met some unlucky "friends" from the Snake Tribe, Xiao Yan would have been unable to bear it.
"How can you become a strong man if you can't even endure a little loneliness!" Yao Lao scolded him first, and then said,
"Don't worry, I'll give you a day off today. A hundred miles ahead is Shimo City, where your eldest brother is."
Under Xiao Yan's expectant gaze, Yao Lao said, "You don't have to carry the Xuan Zhong Ruler, just arrive before sunset."
"Thank you, teacher!" Xiao Yan said happily.
Then he displayed his fighting spirit and ran with all his strength like a wild dog, finally entering the city before sunset.
"Human, I finally saw someone!" Looking at the bipedal creature walking in front of him, Xiao Rehao burst into tears. He had never seen a single human figure in the Tagor Desert.
For social animals like humans, cities better meet Xiao Yan's needs.
Xiao Huohuo, on the other hand, walked around the city like a country boy, indifferent to the same eyes from the outside world, just minding his own business, feeling the breath of living people and sighing at the beauty of the world!
"Okay, the next step is to go find big brother." After adjusting his mood, Xiao Yan started to get down to business. He was very concerned about the accurate news about the strange fire.
Even though he had found a lot of low-level beast fires in the Warcraft Mountains and defeated his boss, he was able to upgrade Fen Jue to the intermediate yellow level.
In the end, Xiao Yan also gave up on this path. According to Yao Lao's estimation, if he wanted to promote Fen Jue to the Xuan level, it would be possible to only rely on beast fire. Only those top eight level beast fires would be possible.
So it's better to find a different fire.
"Motie Mercenary Group... Where is the Motie Mercenary Group?" Xiao Yan kept chanting the name of Xiao Ding's mercenary group while looking around.
"Excuse me...are you looking for the Motie Mercenary Group?" At this moment, a clear voice sounded in Xiao Yan's ears.
The latter looked towards the source of the sound, and immediately saw a girl wearing light green clothing, with delicate appearance, green eyes, and a vegetable basket in her hand.
"Yes!" Xiao Yan suddenly came to his senses and asked politely: "Does this girl know where the Motie Mercenary Group is?"
"What do you want from the Motie Mercenary Group?" The girl's green eyes stared straight at Xiao Yan, unblinking.
"I'm just going to visit my relatives." Xiao Yan was also a little surprised. The other party was checking the household registration and asked questions about everything.
"Then please come with me, young master!" the girl greeted, turned around and left.
"Could this girl be a member of the Motie Mercenary Group?" Xiao Yan was a little surprised and quickly followed him, confused.
"Why, it doesn't look like it?" The girl seemed to understand what Xiao Yan meant and looked back with a smile.
"The girl is indeed a bit inconsistent with the mercenary in my impression, haha~" Xiao Yan scratched his head awkwardly and laughed dryly.
This girl seemed slightly younger than him, delicate as a porcelain doll, completely different from the rough mercenary man and wild mercenary woman in his mind.
And he doesn’t seem to have such a level of cultivation, plus the vegetable basket in the opponent’s hand,
"She should be just a maid!" Xiao Yan guessed in his heart.
"I don't know what to call this girl?" Xiao Yan said without any words.
"Qinglin!" the girl said without looking back.
"Xiao Yan, I have met the Qinglin girl." Xiao Yan said with a smile.
But just as Xiao Yan said his name, Qing Lin suddenly turned around, and three small dots appeared in the green eyes, looking at him in surprise, which made Xiao Yan feel a little scared.
"Your name is Xiao Yan?"
"That's right!" Xiao Yan asked doubtfully, "Do you have any questions?"
"You're not here to see your elder brother, are you?" Qing Lin said suddenly with a cute yet cunning smile on his lips.
"Well, how do you know?" Xiao Yan was surprised for a moment and was directly deceived. Then he realized that something was wrong and immediately kept silent.
"Young, do you still want to keep it a secret from me?" Qing Lin saw this and said with great interest.
"Don't worry, you will come looking for me soon. Follow me!" Qing Lin smiled strangely, turned around and continued to lead the way.
"Well, what a strange person!" Xiao Yan looked at Qing Lin's abnormal behavior before and after, feeling quite confused.
But he wasn't worried, as a girl younger than him was not threatening enough.
"Xiao Yanzi, I advise you not to underestimate this girl, she is very dangerous." Just when Xiao Yan relaxed his vigilance, Yao Lao suddenly reminded him.
"Teacher, what's wrong?" Xiao Yan's expression froze and he said without changing his steps.
"This girl's strength is at the peak of fighting spirit. If you fight against her, you will die." Yao Lao said seriously.
"Peak fighting spirit?" Xiao Yan said in shock, "Teacher, how is this possible? She is only less than fifteen years old now, how can she be so strong?"
"You can't understand the abilities of the No. 1 wonder boy in the mainland - the Blue Snake Three Flower Boys." Yao Lao first mocked Xiao Yan,
Then he praised: "I didn't expect that there would be a Green Snake Three Flower Boy in this small stone desert city, and a Green Snake Three Flower Boy who can practice cultivation. It's really amazing!"
