"Well…"
"Dragon Gate Inn."
"It should be right this time."
A tall figure stood on the edge of the oasis and the yellow sand.
His appearance was as handsome as that of a woman, but his clothes were as tattered as that of a beggar, and there was a long blue-green sword hanging from his waist.
The visitor was Ye Ying, who had left Hidden Sword Villa for more than a month.
From the first day he stepped out of the villa's gate, he followed the guidance of the Sky Crystal Sword and walked southwest.
As a result, within a few days, the direction changed to the north again. When he almost reached Kaifeng Mansion along the official road, the direction changed again.
In desperation, he turned northwest again.
For Mr. Ye, who rarely goes out, this trip is like a fantasy drifting.
Ordinary towns are fine, you can buy food and drink if you have money.
But he had no idea about time, so he often made trouble and was still rushing in the mountains in the evening.
So Master Ye, who lacked the ability to take care of himself, had to starve all night long.
He wanted to hunt some game to eat, but he didn't know how to clean it, let alone roast it.
Later, when I learned well, I would also buy some dry food and take it with me.
I was just bored along the way and couldn't stop talking. I bought a big bag of dry food in the morning and finished it in the afternoon.
And he never thought that one day he would enter the desert.
So on the first day he stepped into the Kurchi Desert, he faced the most significant crisis.
There is no place to replenish dry food and no place to drink water!
All these experiences made him regret for a time why he had to show off.
If only I had listened to my second brother, I would have been much more comfortable along the way.
Fortunately, when he was most hungry and thirsty, he was rescued by a group of bandits and brought back to their cave.
After Ye Ying had eaten and drank, he wanted to thank them. As a result, they made trouble for a long time because they wanted to sacrifice him to the jellyfish Yin Ji. In desperation, he had to use force to "conquer" them. Under the escort of these bandits, he finally Arrive at Longmen Inn.
"Dong Ye's house...the Longmen Inn is just ahead. Do you think we should go to the inn to rest or continue on our way?"
Behind Ye Ying, a short, fat, middle-aged sand bandit asked flatteringly.
There was a treacherous light in his eyes, and he had obviously planned to find someone to plot against Ye Ying once he entered the Longmen Inn.
In his opinion, this person only has some skills to deal with bandits like them, and he will definitely not be able to deal with the masters.
However, the main basis for judgment is that Ye Ying has a handsome face that is too feminine, making it difficult for people to regard him as a top martial artist.
"Well, it's right here."
Ye Ying held the hilt of the Tianjing Sword tightly with one hand, her senses became more and more stable, and she knew in her heart that the person she was looking for was in the Longmen Inn.
"Go away."
A cold female voice suddenly sounded from behind everyone.
Ye Ying's group consisted of ten people and seven camels. Although standing on this sandy slope was a bit blocking the road, with such a spacious sandy slope, it stands to reason that their small road would not be able to block anyone.
"What a loud tone. The road faces the sky on both sides of the road. You don't want to walk on such a big road, but you have to walk where we are standing!"
The short and fat sand bandit was the leader of the group. He had been wandering in the desert for many years, and now that he was a grandson again, he was inevitably a little angry.
When he saw someone provoking him, he was just pretending to be powerful, so he just started talking nonsense.
Although the woman's voice was pleasant, her whole body was covered by a black hooded cloak and she couldn't see anything clearly.
But there was a weird-looking weapon in her hand. It was unclear whether it was a sword or a drill.
After hearing the chunky bandit's unceremonious rebuttal, the woman had no intention of wasting any more words and slowly raised the weapon in her hand.
"Make way for the girl."
However, Ye Ying's heart moved, and he felt a strong threat from the woman, and then ordered.
Now that he gave the order, the bandits saw that the provocation failed, so they could only lead the camels and retreat to both sides angrily.
When the woman saw this, she lowered her half-lifted weapon again. She didn't say any thanks, she just walked slowly through the crowd.
Ye Ying looked at her leaving figure thoughtfully, with many doubts in her heart.
The short, fat sand bandit felt a move in his heart when he saw him looking at the woman leaving.
"Dong Ye, if you like it, brothers will go and tie it up for you!"
“……”
Ye Ying glanced at him expressionlessly when he heard this, which made the sand bandit's heart beat fiercely, and he immediately knew that he had made a mistake.
"Thank you for escorting me all the way. Now that you are here, you can leave."
"Ah, Dong Ye's family is already at the door. We have to send you in and make arrangements before you can rest assured!"
The short, fat bandit hurriedly showed his courtesy.
It’s all in your mouth, how could you give this fat to Longmen Inn for nothing!
"I said no."
Ye Ying took two steps forward, then turned to face the bandit.
"The Heavenly Crystal Sword Technique - Travels Thousands of Miles!"
The Sky Crystal Sword in his hand flashed suddenly, and he struck out with a sword move. Suddenly, under the blue sky and white sun, there was a strong wind and billowing sand.
"Ye Dongjia! No, Ye Dongjia!!"
The sand bandits only had time to let out a scream, and then they were carried by the strong wind and blown an unknown distance in the tornado and dust.
Seeing the slender tornado heading northeast at an extremely fast speed, Ye Ying shook her head helplessly.
"Brothers in the desert are really hospitable. I have no choice but to send you back."
"It's not that I won't let you go to the end, but there are many crises in this inn, and Ye can't let you lose your lives in vain."
After saying these words, Ye Ying turned around and walked back to Longmen Inn.
His move just now didn't have any lethality. He just used the power of the magic weapon to stir up the wind. As for how far he can lead these bandits, it's up to God.
After walking more than ten steps towards the inn door, Ye Ying suddenly stopped and turned around again in confusion.
He murmured and looked between the two directions, his expression tangled.
"It's me……"
"Sent in the wrong direction?"
As he spoke, his head jerked, and a blind spot appeared in his vision that he had not noticed just now.
Those seven...
camel!
He only sent the people away and forgot to take away the camels!
……
……
The woman in black robe who gave way to Ye Ying and others was none other than Lin Xianer.
The Obsession Barrier has the ability to collect all information and send it to Lin Xianer through the demonic energy it emits.
Naturally, Anlong's self-rescue methods could not escape her perception.
At first, she didn't care about the fat man's life and death, and she didn't fully put her hope of finding Zhu Yuyan in him.
After learning the secret of Lingyun Cave for the first time, she deliberately let An Long go.
Otherwise, even with the abilities of Fang Qian and Tuoba Sinan, it would not be so easy to remove the demonic energy from his body.
Even if it can be eliminated, 90%25 of Anlong's life will have to die with him, instead of just screaming a few times.
Later, under Lin Xian'er's arrangement, most of the demonic energy left Anlong's body, but a small part of the demonic energy remained in his body and disappeared into deeper parts.
When Anlong and "Jiutian" came all the way to the Kurqi Desert, Lin Xianer was rushing not far in front of them.
And finally arrived at Longmen Inn early.
Just now, she didn't pay any attention to Ye Ying and his group.
But when Ye Ying used Feng Wanli, the majestic internal force released in an instant still made her a little alert.
Lin Xianer turned her head to look at Ye Ying coldly, paused for a moment before continuing to walk into the inn.
She was a little confused as to why such a powerful master suddenly arrived at this inn in the desert.
After all, she didn't know that the news about Lingyun Cave had already spread to everyone.
And because Obsession Barrier had no sense or resonance with the Tianjing Sword, she had not noticed Ye Ying's status as a master before.
But even though she knew it now, she just regarded it as an accident and didn't pay too much attention to it.
"Girl, do you want to stay in a hotel or buy some dry food and water bags?"
When Lin Xianer arrived at the door of the inn, the waiter who greeted guests came forward to greet her familiarly.
"Stay in the hotel."
"Okay, girl, please come with me!"
The clerk's eyes were very sharp, and he could tell Lin Xianer's identity as a Jianghu person at a glance.
He carried out the boss lady's recent instructions very seriously.
The Jianghu people went inside to get them, and if they were people from trading houses, they sold them a ration of food and persuaded them to return one by one.
On the one hand, this behavior is to reduce the chance of unnecessary conflicts caused by large numbers of people talking. On the other hand, it is not to let people from the business lose their lives innocently and affect the future business of the inn.
After all, most of the people who dare to run this route are bold and familiar faces. If they die too hard, it will not be easy to train new people in the future.
After Lin Xianer entered the inn, Ye Ying, who had been struggling for a long time, finally lowered his head in annoyance and walked to the inn dejectedly.
When he reached the gate, a new waiter came forward to greet the visitor and led him inside.
Although Ye Ying's clothes at this time had become extremely tattered due to sleeping in the open air, the waiters at the inn did not have any prejudice against him because of this.
It's not surprising that people in the world always like to dress up in strange and strange costumes.
In addition, this person can create such a strong tornado out of thin air. Needless to say, his level is extremely high. Even if such a person wears no clothes, he is still right.
In this way, Lin Xianer and Ye Ying were taken to the room by the waiter one after another, and then the waiter was going to take them to the main building lobby to have dinner.
But Lin Xianer didn't want to be exposed in front of others, she just asked the waiter to deliver the food to the room.
However, Ye Ying was hungry again now, so she happily followed the waiter.
The guidance of the Sky Crystal Sword suddenly disappeared after he entered the Longmen Inn.
This made Ye Ying, who had been following the guidance for a while, lose her direction.
However, he knew that the person he was looking for must be in this inn, so he didn't panic and wanted to eat first.
The money I had on my body was almost used up, but thanks to the looting of the bandit's bank account two days ago, it was now full again.
Not only can you afford to live in a "di" house, but you can also have a good meal here.
The only thing I'm worried about is that I don't know if there is any good food in the inn in the desert.
With all kinds of random thoughts, Ye Ying quickly walked to the main building.
"Sir, the dining hall is in front of you. If you need anything, please call the waiters inside. We are short of manpower in the front yard, so the younger ones will go back first!"
After bringing the person here, the waiter said goodbye politely.
Ye Ying nodded to bid farewell to the waiter and walked into the hall.
The lobby, which usually had dozens of tables, was empty of seats at the moment, making it look particularly empty.
Ye Ying saw everyone in the lobby with one glance.
He didn't know if there was anyone he was looking for here, but it could be seen that everyone here was a martial artist.
Out of the desire to inquire about some information, Ye Ying quickly picked a table of diners to share a table with.
One person can only eat until he is full, so it is better to chat with two people, maybe he can collect some useful information.
Ye Ying showed a simple but polite smile on her face and walked towards the table on the left.
There were two men at that table drinking.
One of them had an indescribable appearance, but had a first-class temperament. Ye Ying always felt that this person looked a bit familiar.
The other person was pretty good-looking, but at first glance he looked like a young man with no experience in the world of martial arts like himself, with a clear look of stupidity on his face.
"Boy, the store is full, can we share a table?"
Ye Ying walked to the table and asked, holding her fists.
The two diners looked at the empty lobby and looked at each other.
The good-looking young man was about to expose Ye Ying's lie on the spot.
But the rough-looking man spoke first:
"Yes, it seems that we are the only ones with seats here, so take a seat."
"Thank you!"
"...Where is there anyone?"
The good-looking young man silently watched the two performers, then turned to look at the empty lobby in disbelief.
There is indeed no one!
……
……
……
"Brother...this...is this the Sea of Death?"
A tall and thin bandit swallowed stiffly, his face dull.
"The black and yellow sand...is definitely the Sea of Death..."
The short and fat sand bandit knelt down on the sand, held a handful in his hands, and let the wild wind blow up the sand in his hands.
Although the nine people in the group were all still alive, their eyes were full of deathly silence.
The Sea of Death, a desert during the day and an ocean at night...
This is a miraculous place in the Kurchi desert.
But it is also the burial place of desert walkers.
The desert with extremely high temperatures during the day turns into extremely cold sea water at night.
Between the two heavens of ice and fire, how could ordinary bandits like them have the ability to survive here.
And looking at the scorching sun that has reached the end of the horizon...
The bandits knew that they didn't even have a chance to get out of here.
"Brother, why did Ye Dong's family only involve us and not send the camels along?"
"That is to say, we can still run around and watch the camels!"
"Forget it, the Sea of Death is so vast... Even if we have a camel, we can't get out."
“……”
“……”
"Brother, our Mojiadong and the Sea of Death are in two directions, right?"
"It's not just two directions, they're all incompatible!"
"Yes, if Dong Ye had a better sense of direction, we wouldn't be here."
“……”
“……”
"Brother, the sea water is seeping out!"
"Feel."
"It's so cool."
"It will freeze later."
"Brother, I seem to have seen two mountains, a bit like Cishan..."
"It's a bit like, how did Cishan emerge from the sea?"
"I don't know...GuluGulu..."
"Gulu gulu..."
"Gu..."
