Two hours later, a large cloud of dust suddenly rose in front of him, as if a large group of people and horses were passing by, Shangguan Li's expression was lifted, and he immediately drove his horse over.

Sure enough, a caravan composed of camels and horses appeared in her sight, and the four big banners with the word "Shi" were erected high in the caravan, which was the caravan of the Shi family, the first family of the Xiling Kingdom!

There are only a few water sources left, and the rations of the white horse have bottomed out, Shangguan Li urgently needs to replenish it, and the Shi family caravan just relieved her urgent need.

The Shi family, as early as the beginning of the establishment of Xiling, has existed, generations of business has never been involved in military and political affairs, shops, pharmacies, auction houses, etc. throughout Xiling, countless industries, wealth enough to enemy countries, every year to donate a large number of materials to the Xiling treasury, its head Shi Jianyue and Shangguan Li's father Shangguan Xian is a brother and brother.

Met the Shi family caravan on this barren land, Shangguan Limei's eyes lit up, and the excitement was overflowing, and before she could get closer, two horses rushed out of the long caravan in front of her, one left and one right towards her.

"Who is Your Excellency, and why are you alone in this desert!"

Shangguan Li saw that someone was coming to ask, and immediately responded: "Shangguan!"

The word Shangguan came out, not only ushered in the two people hurriedly dismounted and bowed, but even the caravan that was slowly moving not far away stopped, hundreds of people came out of the caravan in all directions, and they all greeted Shangguan Li, and a young man and a girl ran the fastest, leaving the others far behind, and before the people arrived, the excited voice came out first.

"Shangguan, sister, look, it's Shangguan's sister!"

"It's really Sister Shangguan, let's go!"

The two brothers and sisters are both anxious, and Shi Haoran, the eldest son of the Shi family, took the little hand of the younger sister Shi Qingwan and ran towards Shangguan Li.

Shi Haoran is the son of the Shi family, and now he is twenty-six years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, red and white lips, just like a handsome son, just by this appearance, I don't know how many Xiling women fall in love with him.

His sister Shi Qingwan, who has just turned twelve years old this year, has a round little head, a pair of big eyes that are shining, shining like pearls, a red little face full of smiles, two short legs are pounding fast, one hand is held by her brother, and the other hand lifts the corner of her skirt, which looks very cute.

"Shangguan, sister, Qing, Wan, I think so much, you!"

Shangguan Li smiled, her eyes were bent into a crescent moon, she looked at Shi Qingwan, who was out of breath, and doted: "Qingwan run slower." ”

"Haoran. ”

When he got closer, Shi Haoran bowed down and hugged his fists and said, "Sister Shangguan is good!"

Shangguan Li looked at him, then took Shi Qingwan's silky little hand and asked, "Why did you come to the Northland, your father knows?"

Shi Qingwan stuck out her little tongue, her mouth pursed and she stopped talking, Shi Haoran "coughed", and then rubbed her hands and said nervously: "Of course my father doesn't know, otherwise where can I come out, I sneaked out with my little sister." ”

Hearing this answer, Shangguan Li nodded unexpectedly, the Shi family is very strict, the brother and sister are locked up at home on weekdays, the elder brother Shi Haoran has to practice and be familiar with the way of doing business, and the younger sister Shi Qingwan has to fiddle with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and aristocratic etiquette, and there are very few trips in the city, let alone the caravan that is now going to the Northern Hell Sect.

After thinking about it, Shangguan Li said solemnly: "Haoran, do you know how angry your father will be when she runs away this time, Qingwan is still young, how dangerous the north is, how dare you put her in danger!"

Shi Haoran glanced at his sister who was hiding behind Shangguan Li, and said aggrievedly: "Sister Shangguan, don't blame me, besides, this caravan is presided over by General Manager Mo, with him, there will be no mistakes." ”

Speaking of this, Shangguan Li turned her head to look at the more than 100 people who came later, and the man in his forties in yellow robes at the front was the manager Mo in Shi Haoran's mouth.

"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess......"

"Manager Mo, the war has just ended, and when you go to the North Hell, won't the caravan be affected?"

Faced with Shangguan Li's question, Manager Mo stepped forward with his stomach held up, and said with a faint smile: "Don't worry, princess, the northern land also needs to survive, and all the resources depend on the supply of the Central Plains and my Xiling, and it will never stumble on my caravan." ”

Hearing this, Shangguan Li couldn't help but nodded, and gradually had a plan in her heart.

At this time, Shi Haoran next to him suddenly asked, "Sister Shangguan, why did you come to the Northland too?"

"Alas!"

Shangguan Li sighed and said slowly: "After the war, my father was bedridden, and he was originally hit by two strange poisons in the Biling Bead, and the doctors were helpless, so they could only go to the Northern Netherworld Sect to ask for the antidote......

Shi Haoran said again: "Isn't there anything you can do without a real person?"

Shangguan Li shook her head and said, "The only way to go to the Northern Netherworld Sect is to go." ”

The atmosphere was suddenly a little gloomy, Shi Haoran and Mr. Mo only knew that the king was injured, and he would definitely recover after a period of cultivation, who would have thought that he had been poisoned, and only the Northern Hell Sect could solve it, and for a while, everyone's emotions became very complicated.

Shangguan Li smiled lightly, pulled Shi Qingwan and walked towards the caravan, leaving the white horse to the caravan to take care of, while walking, whispering to the little girl, Shi Qingwan didn't know what she heard, her little face bloomed, she leaned forward and backwards with a smile, and completely forgot the aristocratic etiquette that she learned every day.

The group followed Shangguan Li back to the caravan, and after a slight pause, the team marched towards the Northern Hell Sect again, but the caravan was carrying a large number of supplies, so the speed of travel was not very fast, but under the retention of Shi Qingwan and Shi Haoran, Shangguan Li finally stayed and went to the North Hell with them.

There was a naughty elf ghost beside her, Shangguan Li's mood became much more cheerful, and the laughter and laughter on the carriage continued, and even the heat of the day was dispelled a lot.

The carriage traveled for a day, and there were still more than a hundred miles left from the Northern Underworld Sect, and the caravan could only stop and camp, not daring to travel at night.

Tonight, the sky was dark, the stars and the moon were not visible, and with the bleak wind howling, a layer of clouds appeared in everyone's hearts. In such weather, it is clear to those of the caravans who have been walking in the Northland all year round that the most dangerous thing in the Northland is about to appear.

More than 100 people lit three fires for barbecue to ward off the cold, and everyone sat around the fire.

"It's no wonder, the evil spirits are avoided, the gods are blessed, and everything is fine......"

Shangguan Li was roasting the beast meat in her hand, when a murmuring sound suddenly sounded in her ears, she listened attentively, and couldn't help but slap Shi Haoran on the head, startling him.

"Who!what, who dares to ......"

Shi Haoran was originally concentrating on reciting with his eyes closed, all his mind was on it, but the top of his head was suddenly slapped on the top of his head, and he was suddenly so frightened that he jumped up, his muscles tightened, his face looked around in horror, and his mouth was even more panicked.

"Hahahaha......"

Shi Qingwan fell to the ground laughing on the side, her small body twitching.

Shangguan Li tilted her head sideways and glanced at him with disdain, and teased: "I can't imagine that you, the eldest son of the Shi family, a cultivation genius in the eyes of outsiders, and a child-like character, still believe in these crooked ways." ”

After saying that, Shangguan Li didn't wait for him to reply, and once again set her eyes on the beast meat that kept making a "crackling" sound in the flames, just remembering the words that Shi Haoran was chanting just now, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but secretly curl, and the firelight was imprinted on her gorgeous face, as if everything in this world had lost its brilliance.

Shi Haoran looked at everyone looking at him, and in a fit of anger, he shouted viciously: "What are you laughing at! What's so funny! This exorcism method has been around for a long time, what if it really works!"

Sitting back on the edge of the fire angrily, Shi Haoran pushed the little sister who was still twitching on the ground, "Hurry up, isn't it cold on the ground?"

"Hee-hee-hee...... Brother, you're so funny!"

Shi Qingwan was pulled up by him, and then two small hands stretched out and grabbed Shi Haoran's left and right cheeks.

Holding the little sister hanging on his body in his arms, Shi Haoran looked at Shangguan Li on the left and said, "Sister Shangguan, have you ever seen a Nether Beast?"

"Netherbeast?"

Shangguan Li looked at the fire, and a picture came to mind.

In the picture, a large array was shrouded in the ground, like a giant bowl upside down, enveloping more than a dozen of them along with the carriage......

"I saw it once, when there was a strong man in charge, under the cover of the formation, even the Nether Beast was helpless. ”
