Chapter 104 Shatuo City
By the time they hit the road again, Lin Yi had already joined the team of the darts.
Mao Kui and Yan Ming are brothers, and the two of them founded the Zhenwei Dart Bureau.
In addition to Mao Kui's apprentices, there were also some dart masters, a total of more than thirty people, escorting a camel team.
These elephants looked similar to what Lin Yi had seen in his previous life, but they were much larger, about the same size as elephants.
The elephant camel has great strength, and its hard-working spirit is comparable to that of an old ox, but it has a docile temperament and is suitable for consignment labor.
Originally, these elephant humps were full of goods on their backs, but now some materials on the monster beasts have been added, especially the corpse of the female lizard, which requires eight elephant camels side by side to pull.
This female lizard is so precious that it not only gave birth to wings, but also has a larger body than the usual female lizard, and it can be said that it is full of treasures.
Mao Kui was reluctant to throw it away, preferring to throw away some goods and free up eight elephant camels to pull it.
In this way, there is no extra elephant camel for Lin Yi to ride.
In the end, Lin Yi rode an elephant camel with the bell, but fortunately, the bell was petite and did not take up much space.
Because of Lin Yi's previous performance, although it was later confirmed that he only had the strength of the Yuan Martial Realm, others still had special respect for him.
In this way, it inevitably seems to be raw and too polite, only bells, innocent, without so many scruples, giggling and asking questions along the way.
"Brother Lin Yi, are you really the Yuanwu Realm?" Bell never believed that Lin Yi was the strength of the Yuanwu Realm.
How could Yuanwu Realm be so powerful?
"I'm really Yuanwu Realm, didn't your father say it all......" Lin Yi said helplessly.
Whoever is asked the same question several times will have the same expression as him.
"Oh. The bell whispered.
I can finally clean up for a while, Lin Yi thought to himself.
But he was wrong, and the bell was silent for only a few seconds, and immediately a new problem came again.
"Brother Lin Yi, did you come to the desert for the treasures of the Peacock Dynasty?"
"What?"
Lin Yi was taken aback.
"Is there really a Mauryan Dynasty?"
Wasn't the key you got from the little monkey to open the Mauryan Empire's treasury?
He still felt ethereal at the time, and he didn't expect to hear the news of the Peacock Dynasty so soon.
Seeing that Lin Yi was surprised, the bell also said dumbly: "It turns out that Brother Lin doesn't know about the Peacock Dynasty, so you didn't come to the desert for the treasures of the Peacock Dynasty?"
"Of course, I was just passing through. ”
Lin Yi said casually.
His mind was now on what the bell had just said.
The bell shouldn't lie, it seems that the treasure of the Mauryan Dynasty is real, in this case, I can't easily let go of this opportunity.
"Brother Lin Yi...... Brother Lin Yi......"
Lin Yi was suddenly in a daze, and the bell called him twice.
"Ah......" Lin Yi came back to his senses.
"Brother Lin Yi, I'm going to Shatuo City soon, you go to my house to play, my sister will definitely like your ......"
"Sister?"
"Yes, Sister Xiaolan, ......"
Bell seems to like this Xiaolan sister very much, and when she talks about her, her eyes are full of smiles.
From the mouth of the bell, Lin Yi knew that Mao Kui had an eldest daughter, who was eighteen years old.
Although Mao Kui is the owner of the Zhenwei Dart Bureau, Xiaolan is usually in charge, so even if Mao Kui goes out, he will not worry about anything happening at home.
In the eyes of the bell, Sister Xiaolan is, of course, the most beautiful woman in the world.
Lin Yi just smiled, this is like a lover's eyes, it can't be taken seriously.
However, although the bell is still young, only twelve or thirteen years old, it already has the charm of a beauty between her eyes.
She and Xiaolan are sisters, and even if Xiaolan is not a country and a city, she should be a nobody.
If it was before, Lin Yi would have been willing to talk about beautiful women, but now his mind is not on this.
He moved like a camel and caught up with Mao Kui, who was walking in front.
Because of the bell, it is no longer appropriate for him to call Brother Mao again, so he changed his voice to call Uncle, so that everyone will not be embarrassed.
"Uncle, what's going on with the treasure of the Peacock Dynasty?" Lin Yi asked straight to the point.
Mao Kui has a hearty personality, and there is no need to beat around the bush when talking to him.
Hearing Lin Yi ask, Mao Kui was stunned for a moment, and then said, "You don't even know the treasure of the Peacock Dynasty?
Why do you think I'm here for the treasures of the Mauryan Empire? Are the treasures of the Mauryan Dynasty famous?
In Lin Yi's consciousness, since your treasure is of course very secret, otherwise it would have been taken away by others a long time ago.
"Uncle, I was just passing by here, I really don't know the treasures of the Peacock Dynasty, I just heard the bell talk about it, and I only knew it. Lin Yi explained.
"Oh, I see. Mao Kui nodded.
"Brother Lin is also interested in treasures?" Yan Ming interjected.
"Listening to what you mean, it seems that this treasure of the Mauryan Dynasty is a well-known thing. Lin Yi said with a smile.
"Huh...... There is no one in our desert who does not know the treasures of the Mauryan Empire. Mao Kui also smiled, as if he was just talking about an ordinary thing.
"Oh, yes? Tell me about it, uncle. Lin Yi became more and more interested in this unknown Peacock Dynasty.
"Speaking of this Peacock Dynasty, it was originally the overlord in the desert...... Mao Kui was really embarrassed when he talked about the Peacock Dynasty.
It turned out that the Mauryan Dynasty was originally an ancient city in the desert, but with the changes of history, I don't know when, it quietly disappeared into the desert.
Some people say that it was the royal family of the Mauryan Dynasty that provoked people who could not be provoked and was slaughtered overnight.
Some people also say that the city of the Peacock King was cursed and sank to the ground, and none of the residents of the city survived.
Others say that the Mauryan Empire did not exist at all, and that it was just a rumor made up by people.
However, these words have been passed down from generation to generation, and no one can tell whether they are true or false for many years.
It's just that after a while, someone will see the phantom of the Peacock King City in the desert, but when they chase the phantom and walk over, the phantom will disappear.
As a result, the legend about the Peacock King City, although ethereal, is becoming more and more mysterious.
However, not long ago, there was news that the Peacock King City was about to be unearthed.
Many masters rushed one after another, and some people went to investigate, and they did feel a strong fluctuation.
Mao Kui said that the spit was flying, under his description, the Peacock King City was simply a fairyland on earth, with countless treasures.
"I said, how could no one take away the well-known treasure, it turns out that it has not been unearthed yet. ”
Mao Kui's words can be regarded as solving the doubts in Lin Yi's heart.
"Uncle, this Peacock King City is so good, aren't you going to try your luck?" Lin Yi asked.
"This ......," Mao Kui showed embarrassment on his face.
"Hahaha...... Brother Lin Yi, you don't know, it's not that my eldest brother doesn't want to go, it's my niece Nalan who won't let me ......" Yan Ming was very happy when he saw Mao Kui's embarrassment.
After all, these are Mao Kui's family affairs, and Lin Yi is inconvenient to ask more, so he laughs it off.
They chatted like this, and after a few hours, a majestic desert stone city was in sight.
Seeing the shadow of Shatuo City, it also means that it is safe, and everyone breathes a sigh of relief.
For these dart masters who lick the blood with their knives, every dart is a new life, and coming back alive is considered to have a life back.
Lin Yi looked at the stone city that was gradually becoming clear and larger in his eyes, and his heart was extremely shocked.
In the middle of this vast desert, it is incredible that such a large stone city can be erected.
"Lin Yi, let's go to our Zhenwei Dart Bureau to rest first, and when the goods are unloaded, I invite you to the best restaurant in Shatuo City to drink. ”
Mao Kui was very happy to reach Shatuo City smoothly, and he said to Lin Yi while commanding his subordinates.
"Okay, I'm new here, and I'm unfamiliar with people, and I need to be taken care of by my uncle. Lin Yi was not polite.
"Great, Brother Lin Yi, I'll be your guide, there are many fun places in Shatuo City, Sister Xiaolan hasn't been with me for a long time......" The bell jumped past and recommended herself.
When Lin Yi heard this, his face suddenly felt a black line.
What, you obviously want me to play for you!
"Bell, don't mess around, your brother Lin Yi still has a lot of things, how can I have the kung fu to play with you......" Mao Kui lowered his face and scolded.
Probably because Mao Kui had no prestige in front of his daughter, the bell was not afraid at all, pouted, hugged Lin Yi's arm, and said with a face: "No, Brother Lin Yi, are you willing to play with me?"
"Hehe......"
What can I say!
"This little girl has made me spoiled, only Xiaolan can control her, Lin Yi, don't be angry!" Mao Kui said helplessly.
"Huh...... The bell is very cute......" Lin Yi said.
"Brother Lin Yi is the best, let's go, let's hurry up and enter the city." The bell pulled Lin Yi and left.
When they arrived at the city gate, there were already more people, and at the city gate, some people checked the passers-by.
"Uncle, which empire does this Shatuo City belong to?" Lin Yi asked.
"Hehe......" Mao Kui smiled and said: "The desert is an abandoned land, and Shatuo City does not belong to any empire, and this city is mainly controlled by three forces. ”
"Oh, which three forces?" Lin Yi asked.
"These three forces are the Divine Sword Gate, the Blood Wolf Gang, the Qingyin Pavilion, and the Divine Sword Gate are considered to be the old forces in Shatuo City, and they have always been deeply rooted, even if they have been unlucky all these years, they still have strong strength. ”
"The Snow Wolves are a gang that has only appeared in recent years, and they are ruthless and unscrupulous, so you must not provoke them. ”
"There is also the Qingyin Pavilion, which is the weakest of the three major forces, and it is said that they are all women, but they act mysteriously and should not be underestimated. ”
"In short, none of the three major forces is easy to provoke, so let's just not provoke them. ”
From Mao Kui's tone, Lin Yi could hear that he was very jealous of these three forces.
Lin Yi just remembered it in his heart, but he didn't come to cause trouble, he just waited for the treasure of Peacock King City to open, and he left, so he didn't care too much.
Such a huge elephant caravan entering the city inevitably attracted attention.
The Zhenwei Dart Game seems to be well-known in Shatuo City, and it is recognized as soon as it enters the city.
"Look, it's the people from Zhenwei Dart Bureau who have returned, and it seems that they have brought back a lot of good things this time. ”
"Oh my God, look what that ...... is"
"It's a fire rock monitor lizard female lizard, mother, it actually gave birth to two wings, I ...... obediently"
This scene was so shocking that eight elephant camels pulled a female lizard more than ten meters long into the city, which attracted many onlookers at once.
"Boss Mao, where did you get this female lizard? You're going to get rich...... someone asked enviously.
"Haha...... Lao Mao, I was lucky, on the way back, I encountered the corpse of this female lizard, and no one wanted it, so I pulled it back. ”
Mao Kui had already been instructed by Lin Yi not to tell him out.
Mao Kui also knows the truth of making a fortune in a muffled voice, it is not good to be too ostentatious, and it is easy to get into trouble.
"I'll just say, with Mao Kui's strength, when I encounter this female lizard, I guess my life will be difficult to protect, let alone kill it. ”
"That's right, it must be the news that the Peacock King City was unearthed, which attracted a master and killed this female lizard......"
These people speak sourly, and it seems that they are deliberately unpleasant.
Mao Kui wished they thought so, just smiled and did not refute.
Mao Kui's appearance confirms this statement.
"Yan Ming, you take a few people to deliver the goods to the customer, by the way, find someone to estimate the price, and hurry up to sell this female lizard, so as not to cause extraneous branches, I will take Lin Yi and the bell back first." ”
Mao Kui handed over all the matters at hand to Yan Ming to deal with.
These were originally his jobs, but Lin Yi was his honored guest, and he couldn't slack off.
Yan Ming didn't refuse, and readily agreed.
"Dad, you hurry up, we've been out for so long, I miss Sister Xiaolan. ”
The bell ran in front for a while, and when he saw Mao Kui and Lin Yi still walking slowly behind, he ran back to pull them.
"Huh...... Bell, you little girl's family, you can't be steady, be careful that you won't be able to marry in the future!" Mao Kui shook his head with a wry smile.
His two daughters are his heart and heart, and they are also his pride.
"Dad, what do you say, I hate it, don't marry people......" Xiao Bell pouted and glanced at Mao Kui unhappily.
Lin Yi is envious of the family relationship between their father and daughter, so he doesn't feel bored.
Soon they arrived at the door of the Zhenwei Dart Bureau.
"Sister Xiaolan, Sister Xiaolan......"
Before they could enter the door, the bell cheered happily.
"Huh, strange ......," Mao Kui frowned.
Usually the door is guarded, why is there no one today?
They walked in, and everywhere they looked, there was a dilapidated appearance, and many things were smashed.
"Something happened!" Lin Yi's heart jumped.
Mao Kui's face changed greatly, and even the cheerful little bell turned pale.
"Something must have happened!"
This is what they all think together.
"Master, you're back!"
"Total Dart Head ......"
At this moment, several people quickly came from the backyard.
"Xiaoxi, what's going on? What about Xiaolan? Why didn't she come out, did something happen?".
Mao Kui asked hurriedly, the bruises on his face exposed.
"Master, don't worry, Sister Lan is fine......" The man named Xiaoxi hurriedly said.
