The sword is the devil

Chapter 554 New Experience
From the map point of view, because the entire boundary is not a straight line, and the desertification of the patella desert is also strong and weak to the inland, so it is a zigzag boundary. Among them, the ancient Loulan is a place that goes deep into the desert. Thousands of miles wide, named after a human city site.

Ancient Loulan is an ancient desert country, but with the depletion of water sources, severe desertification, and the rampage of undead creatures, this ancient country finally disappeared in the long river of history. Human beings moved inland step by step, and intermarried with other ethnic groups in the process. , Now there is no such thing as Loulan people, and they have become the people of Qin, Yue and other countries.

The Yanmen Quanzhen is responsible for guarding the once huge territory of the ancient Loulan Kingdom, which exists as a barrier for humans in the northwest region.

The Loulan city he is going to now has little connection with ancient Loulan. It is the only depression in this area with a water source, which can barely provide basic living conditions for human beings, so a certain number of residents have gathered here. For a living, according to the books and records, there are only a few thousand people. Such a number is not even as large as a village in the prosperous places in the southeast and southwest.

The harsh living environment has created completely different customs and customs, which also has its unique charm.

After roughly confirming the direction, Hou Tiao lowered the altitude. He wanted to take a closer look at the terrain below. It is said that experienced locals can accurately find the path from the size and distribution of the sand dunes. This exotic style is another experience.

Hou Tiao is a person who likes to experience different natural environments, so this place doesn't seem too bad to him?
Such an idea may only be available to practitioners, because they don't need to worry about lack of water.

When he clarified his direction, lowered his height, and started patrolling at a low altitude of a hundred feet, the scenery and figures on the ground began to become clear.

A caravan of camels is winding its way through countless ring hills that are half soil and half sand.

There are a total of more than 50 camels in the small camel team, and there are more than a dozen people in the team. The backs of the remaining sand camels are all piled high with goods; the characters are all wrapped in large burqas from the beginning to the end, and they can’t tell the difference between men, women, and children. There is only a series of crisp camel bells echoing in the vast and boring sand dunes, going far away with the wind.

This must be a caravan going to ancient Loulan from a nearby city, because there is no second place for humans to stay in this direction. Considering that the nearest city to ancient Loulan is also more than a thousand miles away from the map, such a trip is very difficult for ordinary people. It is hard to imagine.

He wants to see the customs of the people here, and experience the danger of this journey. For him, everything here is still on paper, and everything needs to be experienced personally, from now on.

As for when to report to Yu Zhengxing, it doesn't matter a few days earlier or later, the purpose of Sikong Mansion is to let him leave Yujing, so it probably doesn't matter if he runs on the road for a year.

Quietly landed not far in front of the camel caravan, no one could see how he appeared because of the obstruction of sight by the sand dunes; The speed of the camel team.

It is said that the folk customs here are tough and simple, but I don't know if it is true?

As soon as he landed, he discovered that this place has an unexpected advantage for him, that is, his Tudun is like a fish in water in this desert environment, and it is much more powerful than Li Zhihai, which is also an unexpected advantage. result.

………………

The camel caravan moved forward with difficulty in the flying dust and sand. The man on the camel was wrapped in an airtight burqa, his body moved up and down with the movement of the camel, seemingly relaxed and natural, but his eyes never stopped Observe the surrounding environment.

In this season, in such an area, travel is still dangerous, but it is still barely feasible; human monks from the direction of ancient Loulan have been hunting undead creatures in this area for hundreds of years. The basic living space of human beings is blocked, and the pace of undead creatures going south is blocked. Therefore, most of the dangers come from the environment itself.

This situation is still controllable within Loulan, but if it is outside Loulan City, it is a different kind of risk.

Undead creatures also have memory and wisdom. They also know that this barrier is not easy to mess with, and they are in a stalemate of confrontation; but according to those Qi practitioners in Loulan City, the invasion of undead creatures in recent decades The strength began to increase again, and the strength of human monks also felt strenuous...

This is something that Qi practitioners should consider, not something ordinary people like them can worry about.

Turning across a sand dune, the terrain in my memory has not changed much. Even though the sand dune has slightly changed its appearance due to the encroachment of wind and sand day after day, for these natives, they will not lose their way.

But this time, there was something extra in front of him. A person was walking on the sand on foot, without a burqa to cover his body, and low-top boots were completely unsuitable for this place. He had a sword on his back, but he couldn't see any luggage.

A sand camel jumped up behind him to keep pace with him, and a slightly immature voice came from a short body under the burqa,
"Third uncle, he is a convincing man!"

Fuqishi is a name for practitioners in the Northwest region. They don't know much about cultivation, so they simply divide practitioners into two categories, those who can fly are called Qi practitioners, and those who cannot fly are called Fuqishi.

Most of the qi practitioners who come and go are from other places, but those who crawl on the ground are mainly the natives of Northwest China who are new to practice.

Seeing that his third uncle was still hesitating, the young man was a little dissatisfied, "Let's give him a sand camel, I don't know how long it will take to go like this."

The man stopped his nephew, the young man was just too impulsive and not cautious enough.

"Wait a minute! Let's take a closer look first, Xiao Li, please be careful after the notice, and get your bow and arrow ready!"

"Third Uncle, isn't that necessary? This person's legs and feet are bent normally when he walks, and there are also shadows. Moreover, if it is an undead creature pretending to be it, it should wear a burqa instead of an ordinary mainlander's attire..."

After all, the boy still turned his head around and informed the camel team to be alert. Children who grew up in the northwest, these things don't need to be taught, and they can be seen by their ears.

The adult males in the camel team began to drive the camels forward, each holding a bow and knife. In the vast desert, they relied not on luck, but on their own prudence and courage.

The camel team slowly approached from behind, the bow and arrow pointed at the target, the lone traveler turned his head, the strange face, but it was undoubtedly human.

Before the man gave an order, the boy had already shouted cheerfully, "Visitor from afar, do you need a hump? And the sweetest milk wine in the desert?"
