There is a trade road in Mobei that runs through the entire desert. It is an important transportation artery between the Shengyuan Empire and the Tianyan Empire. It is also an extremely prosperous trade road.

Busy places are bound to be targeted, and the Mobei Three Bandits are the most notorious gangs among them. Faced with their banditry, the merchants walking in this trade are trembling with fear, but in order to survive, they have no choice. They can only hire high-paying employees.

Only with the help of local bodyguards can we have greater confidence in passing this trade route safely.

Among them, the most powerful escort agencies are undoubtedly the Tianxing Escort Agency and the Nagato Escort Agency here. Yu Qiang, who was talking in the Huangyan Inn before, is one of the escorts of the Tianxing Escort Agency.

The various large and small escort bureaus headed by Tianxing Escort Bureau and Nagato Escort Bureau established an alliance of escort bureaus called "Lian escort". Five years ago, Mo Qingquan, the chief escort of Tianxing Escort Bureau, and Meng Meng, the chief escort chief of Nagato Escort Bureau,

Hanshan signed an agreement with the three major bandits of Mobei, which stipulated the principles that both parties should abide by.

Every year, the liaison guards hand over millions of gold coins to the three bandits, and the three bandits promise not to move any of the liaison guards.

But as time goes by, the effect of the agreement becomes weaker and weaker. It is not that the effect of the agreement gradually loses its effect over time, but that the greed of people is getting bigger and bigger, occupying the original norms.

location.

So rules and treaties become worthless in the face of interests. This is the terrible thing about people's hearts.

An old merchant once asked Qing Ming, "Young man, why are you not afraid of meeting bandits from Mobei when you are walking alone on this business road?"

What about you, old man? If you don’t hire a local escort, aren’t you afraid of bandits? Qing Ming asked in reply.

Hey! It's not that I'm not afraid, but I'm very afraid. I never wanted to hire a local escort to protect me, but there's no other way. The escort fee is more than what I earned from this transaction. The old businessman sighed,

All expressions of helplessness.

So the old merchants could only place their hope in God and pray to God to prevent them from encountering thieves.

His caravan traveled along this trade road with a sense of luck.

So Qing Ming found the corpse of the old merchant and his looted belongings in the yellow sand.

Qing Ming sighed helplessly and buried the old merchant's body under the yellow sand.

He never believed in the so-called luck, nor did he believe in the so-called God. He only believed in himself, so he is still alive now.

Qing Ming traveled alone back and forth in the dangerous Mobei land for more than half a year. Although he was injured all over his body and almost lost his life, he still survived until now. This is not a fluke, but a kind of ability.

Going out early and coming home late has become his daily routine here. Demonic beasts are rampant in the desert. He is often attacked by demonic beasts. If he can fight, he will fight, and if he can't, he will retreat. Sometimes he returns to the town dripping with blood, in order to

Inconspicuous, he placed himself under a black robe.

Why did he come here all the way from the distant southern Xinjiang, and what drove him to venture into Mobei alone regardless of his life.

He is looking for something.

Local practitioners spread a legend that there is an oasis deep in Mobei. There are various rare treasures hidden in the oasis. As long as you get one or two pieces, ordinary people will have enough food and clothing.

It also has great benefits for cultivators, such as powerful martial arts and rare herbs that improve cultivation.

It is said that there is also a large field of Datura flowers growing there, which is the flower of death in the desert and also the flower of curse.

Many people have teamed up to go to Mobei to find this oasis, but they all ended up without success. It seems that the legend only exists in people's mouths.

But Qing Ming knew that this was not a legend, but that such a place did exist.

Because Murong Hua, the former leader of Ranhua Sect, had been there before, that was where Qing Ming wanted to go.

He is looking for a kind of datura flower. A kind of datura flower that is rare in the world. He has to break through even the dragon's den and the tiger's den.

According to Qing Ming's recent investigation, the three major bandit families in Mobei are not as simple as they appear, and you may be able to get the clues you want from them.

But seeing Xing Ding Ling appear in the inn and being hunted by the heroes, Qing Ming knew that this naughty girl might be in danger, because this inn was not simple, and there were several auras hidden in it that made Qing Ming's heart palpitate.

But no matter what, the girl cannot be arrested.

He touched something in his arms and quickly stood up to mix in the crowd.

Not long after Song Xuan sat down and had a glass of strong wine in his stomach, he saw everyone chasing Xing Ding Ling away with shouts.

"Stars jingle bells, stars jingle bells!" Song Xuan murmured to himself, the wine glass in his hand rotated in an arc on his fingertips, his index finger lightly pressed on the mouth of the cup, and the wine glass stopped.

"I wonder what the relationship between Xingchen and her is!"

When Song Xuan looked up, he saw Qing Ming, who was wearing a black robe, chasing after him.

"Hey..." Song Xuan just wanted to say hello to him when he saw Qing Ming glance at him, and then something quickly came towards him.

"I'm going! He wants my life. People burst into tears when they meet an old friend in a foreign country. Why does it seem like my old friend wants my life!"

Song Xuan didn't dare to be vague and quickly reached out to catch it.

When he opened his hand and looked, it turned out to be a small piece of wood with four words engraved on it.

Second Emperor, leave quickly.

Song Xuan frowned. Could it be that this inn was hiding a powerful person from the Second Emperor? No wonder he noticed the existence of several powerful auras when he first stepped in, although they disappeared in a flash.

Good guy, it’s exciting this time. Song Xuan’s brows relaxed immediately, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

I am used to seeing monsters fighting in deserted jungles, and now I can watch the battles in the human world as soon as I come back. Compared with the struggle for survival between people and monsters, monsters and monsters, fighting between people is more interesting.

Song Xuan raised the wine bottle and poured a sip of strong wine into his mouth.

The wine was strong and sweet, and it immediately dispelled most of the chill from his body.

"It's really a good wine." He sighed with admiration from his chest, then threw a jar of gold coins on the table and towards Fengxue Laixing.

The snow continued to fall, and the entire Guanshan Town gradually turned into a world covered in silver, with the snow covering everything in a thin layer of clothing.

There was a clear ringing of bells in the snow, and the sound echoed over the empty streets.

Xingdingling ran barefoot on the eaves of the buildings next to the street, like a light bird flying through the high and low roof ridges.

So she left a shallow and invisible footprint wherever she walked.

"I mean, big man, why are you chasing me like this in such a cold weather? Hehe..."

In addition to the sound of bells in the snow, there was also the laughter of girls.

"Witch, stop talking nonsense. If you dare to enter the prison today, don't even think about going back. This is not your Mobei land. You can come and leave whenever you want!"

Yu Qiang's rough voice came from behind. If the former's voice sounded like an angel, then Yu Qiang's tone at this moment sounded like a devil.

The two of them ran on the eaves one behind the other.

Xing Dingling was as light as a swallow and as graceful as a giant, while Yu Qiang was as strong as an ox. The roof he stepped on creaked, and countless tiles were broken under his feet.

Everywhere he passed, there would be complaints from the house, similar to that rat making trouble on the roof again.

"Guanshan Town was not built by your alliance, so why can't I come?" Xing Dingling let out another crisp laugh.

"Stop talking too much. You killed dozens of our comrades and broke the agreement first. Why don't you come out and give an explanation? If you can't bear it, don't blame us for being unjust. You will die today!"

"Would you believe it if I said it wasn't us?" Xing Dingling calmed down her expression and looked at Yu Qiang behind her with a serious face.

"You still dare to make excuses. The witnesses and physical evidence are there. No matter what you say, we will not believe you anymore."

"So, you still don't believe me after I told you. Now I'll give you an explanation. We didn't kill those people! Is this going to be bad?" Ding Ling sighed helplessly, and immediately returned to her previous playful smile.

"Thieves will always be thieves! They can never change their murderous and bloodthirsty nature!" Yu Qiang shouted angrily, raised the gilded sword in his hand and swung it forward, and a sharp blade struck Xing Dingling's back.

.

Xing Dingling looked like she had eyes on her back. She jumped away before the sword light even got closer to her.

"Boom!" The sword flashed into the ground, breaking through the snow on the house. A small crack opened in the roof instantly, and the people inside the house fled in panic.

At this time, the heroes had also arrived, shouting to help.

Xing Dingling knew she couldn't waste time with them, so she stretched out her hand and pulled out a long whip from her waist. The whip was made of soft steel and was as flexible as a water snake. When she saw her reaching out, the soft whip flew towards the people who were about to rush forward like a swimming snake.

People sweep it away.

Those few people were out of reach and fell on each other, feeling pain all over their bodies and falling to the ground with a scream and wailing.

"There are so many of you, my aunt won't play anymore!" Xing Dingling quickened her pace and was about to jump onto the roof of another house to escape.

But the moment she moved, a powerful voice came out from one of the rooms in a leisurely manner.

"Haha... Now that you're here, why bother leaving? That old man in Xingtu is so worried about you coming out!"

Qing Ming's heart skipped a beat, the powerful second emperor hiding in secret was about to take action.

Xing Dingling also secretly complained that she had already felt it when she was at Huangyan Inn, but she was just not sure. She originally came here to secretly investigate the murder of their bodyguard a few days ago.

Although a star sign belonging to them was left at the scene, and it is said that the survivors also kept saying that the murderous demons were members of the three major bandits.

There was something strange about the whole thing, which caused a commotion in her family, and now it has divided into two factions. The radical faction thought it was the joint escorts who were responsible, and they all wanted to break up the relationship; the conservative faction was relatively rational.

, I think this matter should be investigated clearly, and we should not fall into the enemy's conspiracy.

Xing Dingling's grandfather is the third largest bandit, and his family belongs to the conservative side.

Moreover, Xing Ding Ling sneaked out this time, and Xing Tu didn't know about it.
