Chapter 321: The Journey to the Desert Begins
Outside Yandu City, Brother Sherman and his brother were riding horses, waiting for them here. Nangong Ling and his son were also there.
Qin and his son have not been back to Yaowang Valley for a long time. Qingsong said that Yaowang Valley has become a mess and they want to go back and clean up the house.
"We won't accompany you on the next journey." Qin Si's life as the master of Yaowang Valley was too dull in the past. In just over a year since he came to the Western Region, he has experienced all the excitement in the past.
.
He used to be a high-spirited person, but now his face is full of fatigue, but he has figured out why Qin Huawu always likes to run outside.
Qin Huawu bowed her hands to them, "There are still some troubles in Yaowang Valley. I'm afraid it will take some time. After those things are dealt with, I will come to the desert to meet you all."
After saying that, he rode off with Qin Si.
The two people's backs gradually disappeared, and Feng Jiuqing finally withdrew his gaze.
"Let's leave quickly."
Across the carriage, Feng Jiu heard Sherman's low voice, "Don't you want to know the whereabouts of those three thousand dead soldiers?"
Feng Jiuqing raised her eyebrows, "You know?"
"More than knowing." Sherman said proudly, "I personally trained those dead soldiers."
"Really?" Feng Jiuqing sneered, "I remember that even if these three thousand dead soldiers are not handed over to the next young master, they must always protect the safety of the young master, right?"
Knowing that she was settling her scores after the fall, Sherman let out a long sigh.
"It's not that I'm stingy. When she married to the Great Yan Dynasty, I also sent two dead men to follow her, but later, for some reason, there was no trace of her."
Feng Jiuqing frowned and subconsciously looked at Nangong Ling next to her. Nangong Ling immediately explained, "This matter has nothing to do with me."
He carefully recalled the original scene, "At the beginning, I wanted to touch Feng Jiuqing, but there was someone protecting her, but then for some reason, those two dead soldiers disappeared."
"Could it be Feng Xiye?" Feng Jiuqing subconsciously thought of him.
Since he sent people to keep an eye on the original owner day and night, he must know that there are dead soldiers around the original owner. In order to kill the original owner, it is not impossible that he first eliminates the dead soldiers around him.
Everything seemed reasonable and reasonable, but it made Feng Jiuqing feel strange. At the same time, a question that had been ignored by everyone for some reason also reappeared in front of Feng Jiuqing.
She opened the curtain, looked at Tu Men who was admiring the scenery of the Western Region, and asked: "By the way...where did Feng Xiye go?"
"have no idea."
Feng Jiuqing didn't believe it, "Is there anything in this world that you don't know about?"
Tu Men turned his head, glanced at her and smiled, "I'm not a god. Of course there are things in this world that I don't know about."
"Aren't you so good at counting? Why don't you count?"
Tu Men looked at her as if she was crazy, "Fortune telling is very labor-intensive and life-consuming. For Feng Xiye, it's not worth it."
"You really don't know?" He said so confidently that Feng Jiuqing just didn't believe it. She felt that the Tumen didn't want her to know.
"Since you can't ask, it must be because I don't want to tell you, so don't ask. As the saying goes, secrets cannot be revealed. When the time comes, you already know it, but... this Feng Xiye is just like you.
, life is very tough.”
Unexpectedly, he would admit it directly. Comparing him with Feng Xiye makes people feel uncomfortable just thinking about it. The expression on Feng Jiuqing's face changed back and forth, and in the end he could only get on the carriage.
curtain.
Going straight to the southwest from the Western Region is the desert. It is desolate and uninhabited. There are only various poisons hidden under the yellow sand, and there is a beautiful legend.
"It is said that there is an old castle in the desert, which contains many rare treasures and lost martial arts secrets. Whoever finds these things will definitely become the richest and richest person in the world."
Where they are now, there is a long stretch of yellow sand in front of them and a green shade behind them.
Tu Men changed his usual gentleness and looked a little solemn, "We are going to enter the desert next, where quicksand is everywhere and there is a shortage of water. Everyone must bring enough water bags."
An Qi carefully packed the last water bag and put it away carefully.
Curiosity drove Feng Jiuqing, "You said it would be too late if it was later. What happened in this desert?"
Tumen, who usually couldn't tell the truth with a stick, was unexpectedly not stingy this time and told everything openly and openly.
"The Western Region has been plagued by a legendary poison recently. The poisoned people's bodies turn black, their skin and bones are ulcerated bit by bit, and they eventually burn themselves to death."
"The poison tortured people to extreme pain before they died, but it didn't make people panic because the poison pointed to the ancient castle containing rare treasures."
"Death for money is crazier than I thought." Feng Jiuqing had already frowned upon hearing about the dangers of the poison, but there were still people who were not afraid of death and continued to do so.
Tumen continued: "So various countries secretly sent many people to hunt for treasures, and many of them brought wizards and doctors with them, but no one knew how to detoxify it."
Feng Jiuqing frowned. She didn't know much about ancient poisons. She only knew what they were after seeing them.
"Do you know what that is?" She knew that Tumen was much older than he looked, and he had traveled extensively, so naturally he had some unique insights.
"I don't know, I don't understand pharmacology either." Just when Feng Jiuqing felt that he was asking for trouble, he suddenly said with a smile: "But these symptoms are consistent with the legendary book hidden in the castle - "Lao Poison"
The ashes and smoke in "The Art of Art" are very similar."
Feng Jiuqing watched him talk eloquently and resisted the urge to roll her eyes, "It seems you know a lot."
"That's true, after all, I'm older than you."
Nangong Ling saw that Feng Jiuqing was defeated, and the knife in his eyes was heading towards the butcher's door. He had the intention of killing him with his eyes if he couldn't beat him.
"Hey, don't look at me like that, I'm telling the truth."
"..."
Feng Jiuqing was curious, "You're not even 80 years old, are you?"
She had read ancient books before and heard that there were some special martial arts techniques in ancient times that could make people have a permanent appearance. Could it be that Tumen practiced some techniques?
Tu Men glared, "That's nonsense, how can you be so young?"
"..."
Feng Jiuqing understood, he just didn't want to say it.
"Next time if you don't want to say it, you can just say it. There's no need to make up stories to lie to me."
"Oh, I don't want to tell you."
Sherman said very little along the way, mainly because he had been bullied by the Tu family since he was a child and had no choice but to provoke him at all.
They abandoned the horses they had brought with them, bought some camels from a merchant from the desert, and then entered the desert with nothing in sight.
Maybe it's because the legends about the castle have become more and more true recently, which has attracted many people to it. They stopped and walked around and met many people.
These people come from different countries, and they all speak incomprehensible words, but they all have one purpose - the castle.
Feng Jiuqing had read a lot of martial arts novels and TV shows before, and was very curious about the legendary Longmen Inn. They rode camels for a day and finally found a run-down inn. This inn was just a wooden house, not impressive.
It's not atmospheric either.
Not only is the boss not a light-weight beauty, but he is also lame and half-blind.
