Ning Chan'er also sensed that someone was approaching, her beautiful eyes were murderous, and she wanted to kill and take the horse, but she changed her mind in an instant, I don't know where she turned out a dark brown burqa, which was the same style as the one worn by Chen Hai, wearing the burqa on her body, wrapping her proud figure inside, only revealing a small face the size of a palm. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Ning Chan'er took off the veil on her face again at this time, Chen Hai turned around and found that her charming face suddenly became bland again, as if she was a personal maid who traveled with him - Chen Hai knew that Ning Chan'er was destroying the essence between the veins of the face and distorting the muscles of the face in order to achieve the purpose of changing her face, but it was extremely rare that he couldn't see any flaws.

Ning Chan'er also behaved like a personal maid, and when the seven strange riders—a sturdy man with a face full of flesh or scars—approached, she hid behind Chen Hai, cowering, as if she was afraid that the seven would drag her out and rape her on the spot.

Everyone wears spirit armor, and the yellow-level spirit armor is not very strong, but the engraved Dao seal prohibition faintly affects the vitality of heaven and earth, and there is a hidden Shenhua, once it encounters a surprise attack, it will immediately show the power of invulnerability.

These seven people actually have the cultivation of the spiritual realm, carrying a big bow, a sword tied to a sword at their waists, each holding a spear and a halberd, and the royal horse scattered into a semi-arc to faintly surround Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er, and their sharp eyes swept around Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er's faces like knives, but they didn't take the initiative to ask Chen Hai about their origins.

This group of people looked fierce and abnormal, but they were not like ordinary horse thieves, they looked well-trained, and more like soldiers in the desert.

"Yao Xing has seen many generals. My master and servant went west out of Tieliuling, wanting to travel to the Xiqiang countries, never wanted to get lost in the wind and snow, dare to ask the generals, where is this place?" Chen Hai shrugged his burly body, walked up from behind the boulder and asked.

"My name is Hu Bilie, Yao's surname in Yanzhou!" The leader is a strong man with a full beard, with the cultivation of the late stage of the Spirit Clearing Realm, with two scars across the whole face, I can't tell how old I am, and the fierce eyes like knives are staring at Chen Hai, although this person has a hawkish nose and deep eyes, he is a Qianghu person, but he is very familiar with the situation in Yanzhou, and he will not easily believe Chen Hai's words.

"Yes, the Yao family is a princely family in Yanzhou, and my ancestors are still a little involved with Yao Jing who lives in Yanjing, but at this time it is no longer attached. Chen Hai said with a smile.

"What about your horses?" asked Hubile.

Such a big wind and snow is by no means something that the pampered sect lords in Yanzhou can afford, and Chen Hai's burly, slightly bloated face, is also full of beards, with a few shallow scars crisscrossing him, looking hideous and brave, and he definitely does not look like the pampered sect lords, and even more like spies sent by horse thieves than them.

"The horses produced in Yanzhou are not tolerant of this cold weather, and they both died within a few days of leaving Tieliuling, but my master and servant are unwilling to give up halfway, and they have been walking for three days and three nights in this snowy day, and they don't know how far they have deviated from the old road of Xiqiang. Chen Hai explained calmly.

"If you go three or four hundred miles to the south, you can see the Beishan mountain crest of Wusheling Ridge, which is where the old road of Xiqiang is located, but on this snowy day, if you continue to walk blindly like this, no matter how high your cultivation is, you are afraid that you will end up with a complete death," the man who claimed to be named Hu Bilie couldn't see through Chen Hai's details, and his sharp eyes stopped his subordinates who were about to move, and said, " We happen to escort a caravan back to the Xiqiang Kingdom, if you don't mind traveling with us to Yequ Mountain to visit a friend first, you can borrow a horse to serve as a leg force for you, and then you can pay us some silver money appropriately when you go to the Xiqiang Kingdom. ”

said that he invited Chen Hai and them to go along, but Hu Bilie did not allow Chen Hai to refuse, and signaled his subordinates to give up a horse.

Of these dozen people, each of them had an empty horse tied behind him, and a knight stabbed the lame horse with a halberd, asking Chen Hai and Ning Chan'er to ride the lame horse together.

Chen Hai thought to himself that if he didn't want to go along, would these seven people attack them immediately?

"You are also going to the Xiqiang country, it is great to have company along the way; as for Yequ Mountain, I have seen records about Yequ Mountain in ancient books, and it is rumored that in the depths of the desert, there is a famous night canal in Montenegro, and a spiritual spring gushes out of the rocky ground in the south of the mountain to drink the hardships. If I have the opportunity this time, I will have to take a look. Thank you!" Chen Hai thanked him and said perfunctorily, while secretly figuring out the identities and origins of these seven people.

After the winter, even if the environment of the West Gorge Corridor is better than the desert in the north, it is also extremely cruel, if you don't pay attention to it, you may die in the wind and snow if you don't pay attention to it, and you may die in the wind and snow, and ordinary caravans will not choose to go west at this time. And the group of people in front of them are not like horse thieves, but they are going to visit some friends in the horse thieves' den, and the ghost believes that they are the guards of the caravan?

Which force sent these seven spies out, what kind of attempt did the horse thieves who ran to contact Yequ Mountain at this time, do you want to directly detain them for interrogation, but will Ning Chan'er, the demon girl, make trouble?

"I'm scattered with a rebellious spirit. Probably seeing Chen Hai's hesitation, Ning Chan'er, who rode on the horse from behind and hugged Chen Hai's back, and didn't mind riding with Chen Hai affectionately, said quietly.

Ning Chan'er's affectionate hugging posture made Chen Hai sit on pins and needles, but her words still made his heart move.

The scale of the horse thieves in Yequ Mountain is not large, but if this group really wants to lure them into the horse thief's den before making a move, Chen Hai will not take this risk easily.

Leaving the West Gorge Corridor, the oasis in the depths of the desert, no matter how big or small, the number is extremely limited, not to mention the spring of Yequ Mountain, or a rare spiritual spring, the horse thieves who can occupy Yequ Mountain, even if there are only two or three hundred people, should not be underestimated.

Chen Hai still wanted to take the horse and leave directly, and he didn't want to rush into the horse thief's den just now, but when he heard Ning Chan'er say that she was carrying the reverse spirit with her, he wanted to follow Hu Bilie's group to Yequ Mountain, but their chances of winning were greater.

And Ning Chan'er tracked him all the way to the vast desert, not to kill him by horse thieves.

Perhaps sensing that Chen Hai had joined more people, the wolves did not chase after him from behind, and disappeared into the depths of the vast sand sea.

Yequ Mountain, and the black stone ridge that Chen Hai saw along the road, are all remnants of Taiwei Mountain's exposed ground.

The main trunk of Taiwei Mountain, only more than 10,000 li, east of the Tengjiao Ridge in Tianshui County, Fujiao Ridge past, is the continuous ridge of the western foot of Qintong Mountain, then from Taiwei Mountain to the west, is the remaining veins of the Horsehair Mountain and Tieliuling that stretch for two thousand miles, and the remaining veins of Yequ Mountain are counted, the veins of Taiwei Mountain extend nearly 30,000 li.

Chen Hai out of the Horsehair Mountain, the black hills seen along the road are only more than 100 meters or tens of meters high, intermittently like a road sign in the depths of the vast desert, and the main peak of Yequ Mountain is four or five hundred meters high.

When Chen Hai and the seven people rushed to Yequ Mountain, the wind and snow had stopped, and the vast desert was covered with a layer of white snow.

Yequ Mountain is a semi-arc-shaped mountain, there are seven or eight miles of stretching, Yequ Spring is in the south of the mountain, gushing out from the foot of the mountain, gathering into a shallow lake of 100 acres in the south foothills, forming an oasis with a range of four or five thousand acres of rare trees and meadows.

After walking zigzag in the depths of the desert for more than ten days, four or five thousand miles, he suddenly saw such an aura oasis, whether it was entrenched by the powerful horse thief force or not, the love shadow in front of him made Chen Hai feel refreshed.

"It is said that although Yequ Mountain is small, it is a pearl in the depths of the desert, does Brother Yao also feel deeply when he sees this situation?" Hu Bili reined in his horse at the edge of the oasis, turned around and asked Chen Hai with a smile.

"Yes, the history books record that in the early years, the Dayan border army built a fortress here, filled with elites, resisted the southward movement of the Huma demons, and protected the smooth passage of the Xiqiang artery. The stone village at the foot of the mountain is probably the camp built by the Dayan Border Army in the early years, right?" Chen Hai pointed to the small stone city at the foot of the mountain with a horsewhip, talking and laughing with Hu Bilie, as if he was ignorant of the world, and completely did not see the murderous and contemptuous smile hidden in Hu Bilie's eyes.

"Don't mention the historical records, twenty years ago, Emperor Yitian conquered Zhuqiang in the west, and sent military horses to Yequ Mountain, but Emperor Yitian was killed by our Zhuqiang coalition army on the shore of Chopwood Lake, and the military village of Yequ Mountain was broken," Hu Bihan talked about the past twenty years ago, and couldn't help laughing, as if he was laughing at Emperor Yitian's inability to measure himself, and the horse whip pointed to Xiaoshicheng and said, "Now my friends live here, build a city and build a fortress, they are now the city lords of Yequ City, but they have not been canonized by Xiqiang State for the time being." ”

Yequ Mountain is said to be a city is a bit reluctant, Little Rock City is about a mile in circumference, next to the mouth of the night canal spring gushing out of the mountain, there are buildings such as arrow towers, guard towers, etc., and the small night canal lake is also completely controlled within the range of the arrow tower.

In addition to Little Rock, there are two or three hundred small and dilapidated houses scattered around the edge of the oasis, most of which are very shabby and very simple, and some women and children in tattered clothes poke their heads out of the leaky mud huts, looking at Chen Hai and other visitors with numb eyes.

On the south shore of Yequ Lake, thousands of acres of fields have been reclaimed, and canals have been opened to divert water from Yequ Lake for irrigation. It was a cold winter, and no one was seen working in the fields, but on the southern slope of Yequ Mountain, there was a quarry, and nearly 1,000 people were under the supervision of the overseers, digging out large pieces of solid stone and transporting them down the mountain, and a larger stone village was being built south of Little Rock City.

Judging by their appearance, there are Yanzhou people and Qianghu people, but most of them are ragged, yellow and thin, and they must be slaves captured and enslaved by horse thieves.

Chen Hai didn't expect that this group of horse thieves was only three or four hundred, and he also had the intention of operating Yequ Mountain next to the Xiqiang Ancient Road, which was really rare.
