Chapter 15: The Journey
The Star Bamboo Empire, on a road in the Southern Wastelands.
A very ordinary carriage was driving slowly, because the road was relatively smooth, Su Qiran could even lean on the wooden plank on the edge of the carriage, which was extremely leisurely.
Behind him is the [Cargo], which contains the [Fire Silkworm Silk], which is very popular in the north of the Xingzhu Empire, and a lazy princess.
Because the temperature in the north is generally lower than that in the south all year round, the [fire silkworm silk] with its own heat-producing effect is very popular with the civilians in the north, but due to climate reasons, the fire silkworm can only inhabit the warmer south, so the sale of [fire silkworm silk] from the south to the north can obtain relatively rich profits.
Of course, ordinary businessmen basically don't go that far, but only to make a pitiful profit in the pockets of ordinary people. Crossing most of the empire is extremely dangerous, after all, the monsters in the wilderness are no joke.
Of course, Su Qiran hardly has to worry about this problem.
With the strength of his high-level Sword Master, as long as he doesn't drill to the death and drill into the large-scale gathering place of demonic beasts, there will basically be no problems.
"Where?" Princess Xingnuo poked her head out from behind the curtain with sleepy eyes, because this was a wilderness, and Xingnuo didn't use the magical human skin mask.
The long turquoise hair drifted to Su Qiran's face with the morning breeze.
It's so itchy.
Su Qiran pushed Xingnuo, who was still confused, back, "The devil knows where this is, and I don't know the way." ”
Xingnuo, who was still a little dazed, woke up suddenly, she poked out her little head again, and looked indignant, "No, you don't know the road, where did you get the courage to say that you can take me to Xingzhu City?"
"Well..."Su Qiran scratched his head in embarrassment, "Anyway, Xingzhu City is in the north, and it won't be wrong to go in the general direction of the north, and when we get to the next big city, we can just spend money to find a guide..."
"Hey... I'm hungry...!"
"There's something to eat in the back, find it yourself. ”
Princess Xingnuo retracted her head, and after looking in the carriage for a long time, she poked her little head out again, with a trace of embarrassment on her little face.
"It's gone..."
Su Qiran was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?"
"I'm gone..."
Su Qiran was silent for a long time, he vaguely remembered that when he left Hanzhu City, he bought food for two people for three days, and it was only a day!
Su Qiran dodged through the curtain, except for the [Fire Silkworm Silk] that occupied the half-carriage, the wooden box that originally put the food was already empty, and the two of them were crowded in the remaining small space, staring at each other wide-eyed.
"Can you eat so much..."Su Qiran said with a headache.
Xingnuo smirked embarrassedly, as if he wanted to get by.
"Hey, I don't know how far it will be to get to the next city..."Su Qiran looked melancholy.
"This is a wasteland, and we can't even find wild vegetables, so it seems that we have to hunt for a living. ”
"Hunting?" Princess Xingnuo seemed to suddenly remember something, and she said excitedly, "I'm a mid-level elven ranger, and I'm the best at hunting!"
"A mid-level elven ranger?" Su Qiran was stunned, due to the different cultivation systems of elves and humans, he couldn't judge Xingnuo's strength by sensing the strength of the energy in her body.
Before that, he had always thought that Xingnuo had not practiced.
"Equivalent to the advanced profession of your human race. Xingnuo explained.
"You have that strength?" Su Qiran looked suspicious, "Then how did you get caught by the people of the Sky Realm Chamber of Commerce?"
"Ahem..."Xingnuo's face flushed, "I just came out of the forest, and they said they could take me to Xingzhu City, and I just..." she also knew that it was silly to trust a stranger like this, so she was embarrassed.
"So you stupidly went with them?" Su Qiran looked at the girl with a flushed face in front of her, sure enough, she was a little princess who had not been deeply involved in the world, she had just suffered from being deceived in the Sky Realm, and in the blink of an eye, she followed her as a "stranger"...
"They later used drugs...", Xingnuo also wanted to defend himself.
Su Qiran silently felt uncomfortable for the elves who followed Xingnuo into the trap of the bad guys, and now they were locked up very hard, and it was difficult for them to meet such a big-hearted master...
"Let's stop talking about that, let's go find food. Su Qiran sighed.
"Let's come to the game!" Xingnuo suddenly raised his head and stared at Su Qiran, his dark green pupils full of excitement. "Look who gets more prey when he hunts, and he who loses has no food!"
Hmph, this princess is an expert in hunting, and she will definitely crush you when the time comes! When you turn around, you can only watch this princess enjoy the food, hahaha...
Although Xingnuo's sudden request was a bit unexpected to Su Qiran, Su Qiran still happily agreed.
After preparing for a while, the two pulled over to the side of the road and headed in two different directions.
Su Qiran chose the east, the wasteland is basically bare land, in fact, it is very strange to have such a wasteland in the fertile southern region, it stands to reason that with the climate here, it can evolve into a grassland in less than a hundred years.
The Warcraft here are also scarcity of food in the wasteland, and the struggle for survival between each other is more serious, so the individual level of Warcraft here is also stronger than that of the general area.
According to clues such as the feces of the demonic beasts on the roadside, coupled with the powerful perception of the high-level sword master, Su Qiran quickly found a hidden crypt.
Inside is a [Golden Python] that is eating. The body of the snake is up to a foot long.
The golden python, inhabiting deserts and wastelands and other areas, is good at strength, poison, and speed, and is very troublesome to this kind of enemy in ordinary junior professionals, but Su Qiran cut the golden python very simply.
After all, the strength of the high-level Sword Master is there.
Satisfied, pack the sliced golden python and throw it into the portable space.
The portable space is a product of the reform of magic technology, a very simple magic device, although the price is a bit high, but it does not require magic power to use, so it is very popular with ordinary merchants.
In order to pretend to be like an ordinary businessman, I didn't use the portable space to put those fire silkworms in. Now it's coming in handy.

Princess Xingnuo walked in the wasteland for a long time with confidence, but she didn't touch a single demonic beast... After all, because of the lack of food, the density of demonic beasts here must be much lower than in places like forests.
After looking for a long time, looking at the vast wasteland, my stomach screamed uncontrollably.
Why? Obviously, when I was on the carriage before, I encountered a lot of monsters...
Hey, I'm so hungry... I'm hungry...
After walking for a long time, Xingnuo felt that he was going to faint from hunger, and as he walked, he suddenly stepped on the soft ground.
Xingnuo lowered his head in confusion, how could the ground be soft in this great wasteland? After seeing it clearly, Xingnuo's little face turned white, it was a lion-shaped demonic beast with a gray-yellow body, and he was stepping on its belly...
"Hello, why don't you go back to sleep?" Xingnuo looked at the gray-yellow leopard's blood-red eyes that stared at her, and his scalp tingled.
The lion, disturbed by his dream, pounced and threw Xingnuo to the ground, and then it opened its bloody mouth and was about to bite down, biting a bite of sawdust...
Elven Unique Skill [Wood Stand-in]
Xingnuo's figure flashed a few meters away, and there was a look of fear on her pale little face, just now if she was a little late in casting the spell, it would be cold...
However, looking at the lion's increasingly ferocious eyes, when Xingnuo just wanted to take out his [bow] to shoot it, he suddenly remembered that his equipment had been robbed by the people of the Sky Realm... She hurriedly turned around and ran. Then the lion chased after him frantically...
Elven Ranger relies on their [bow] for most of their abilities, and various magic combined with the explosive power of the bow and arrow has always been the root of pride for Elven Ranger.
However, the Elven Ranger who lost his [Bow]... It's basically equivalent to a wasted person...
Originally, Xingnuo's speed was not as fast as that of the lion, but she desperately brushed herself [Wind Blessing]
For a while, the lion really couldn't catch up with her...
"Help..."Princess Xingnuo's screams echoed in the wasteland... And then attracted more Warcraft...
