In the thousands of mountains, the long smoke and sunset are closed in a lonely city.

Mu Ran walked in the desert, the yellow sand was all over the sky, even though she was light veil, but the wind was tired of carrying the yellow dust, but it still confused Mu Ran's eyes, at that moment, her steps also became deep and shallow, and in the huge desert, it was even more difficult to distinguish the direction, only the afterglow of the sunset pierced her eyes and couldn't open them, the wind blew Mu Ran's hair, she squinted her eyes slightly, it was already messy in the wind, but she still stood quietly, but her eyes didn't know where it fell.

It was at this time that suddenly out of nowhere came a terrible wolf howl, such as in the ears, but there was nothing around, and it was impossible to distinguish the direction, and this was the most frightening, Mu Ran's cry was unpleasant, the desert at night was particularly terrible, if they were still wandering here when it was dark, I am afraid that they could only be reduced to food for wolves.

Mu Ran's eyebrows frowned slightly, and a few anxious looks suddenly appeared on her face, but at this time, Tongtong behind her suddenly ran up in a hurry, muttering something in her mouth, but her face was even more anxious than Mu Ran, "I can't find a way out now, but how can I do it?"

After speaking, Chi Bi took a deep look behind him, but he didn't see a single figure, and the two of them seemed to be trapped in the desert like this.

"Not far away, is Pipa City. It was Su Yu's faint voice, I don't know when, finally appeared in front of Mu Ran's eyes, although the yellow sand around the sky, Mu Ran was only wearing a navy blue shirt, for fear that the yellow sand would dirty the clothes on his body, but Su Yu was only dressed in white, but what was even more strange was that his body was dusty, there was no trace of yellow sand, and his face was also clean, with a bright smile, like a trickle in the valley. It's just that Mu Ran didn't look at Su Yu, her eyes just fell on the compass in Su Yu's hand, and the small pointer pointed in the direction where she was standing. She sighed lightly and only glanced at Su Yu suspiciously, "Are you sure?!"

It's just that having said that, before Chi Bi could speak, Mian Soft had already walked in the direction pointed by the pointer, and the sunset was finally swallowed by the desert, and when the last trace of yellow line disappeared, Mu Ran finally came to the legendary heart of the desert, Pipa City, just like what he thought in his mind. Architecture at dusk. It's still yellow sand. The crowd of people wrapped in coarse cloth, the streets of Pipa City were quiet and noisy, and all the places were full of ancient atmosphere, and Mu Ran's footsteps seemed to be a little hesitant. But he walked in. There were only three or three guards guarding the door, and when they saw the three strangely dressed outsiders, they all frowned, but they still stared at Mu Ran and walked in slowly, Mu Ran could almost imagine these people pointing behind him, but they only laughed lightly, and Mu Ran's steps were faster.

"Let's find a place to stay first. The folding fan in Su Yu's hand tapped his wrist lightly, and a pair of eyes scanned around, although this Pipa City was the loyalty of the desert. The lord of the city is also the king of the desert, but it seems that the life of the people here is not very good, with yellow and chapped skin and thin bodies. There are also sickly eyes that are deeply sunken due to long-term lack of sleep, Su Yu's face is becoming more and more ugly, as if he has hesitated for a long time, and then he suddenly said with a faint smile, "How did you come to such a place, I don't know, what kind of treasure is hidden here?!"

It's a joke, but it's not, Su Yu just thinks it's strange, Mu Ran was born with golden branches and jade leaves, even when she was in the master's school, she has never suffered such hardship, who knew that she insisted on coming here at this time, Su Yu didn't know anything about it, she didn't understand the reason why she came here, and she didn't know what Mu Ran wanted to do.

However, the top priority was not to dwell on this, Su Yu quickly found an inn that looked relatively clean, and finally put their bags away, surrounded by candlelight, dazzling, but still the light of the sporadic bonfire, illuminating the lively night of Pipa City.

The second child of the inn is an enthusiastic young man, seeing that Su Yu and the three of them are foreigners, but they did not have any suspicions, but grinned, showing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and chattered about Pipa City a lot, until late at night, the excitement outside the house continued This, the little Pipa Cheng, Mu Ran felt for the first time, it turned out that this is still a city that never sleeps, people celebrate and cheer endlessly, even if the doors and windows are closed, the hustle and bustle still penetrates, smashing on their chests, decorating the night with flourishing and gorgeous。

And in the desert for such a long time, her eyes only felt sleepy, and it was not just Mu Ran, Tongtong, the girl, had already fallen asleep deeply, fell on the clean mattress, and made a thin snoring sound, and Mu Ran looked at her like this, and only helped her cover the cup, Su Yu disappeared at this time, she didn't care, just said goodbye to the little guy in the store, and came to her room.

The faint candlelight illuminated the small room coolly, and under the dim candlelight, Mu Ran's face became more and more pale, and he slowly took off the clothes on his left shoulder, and then he saw the wound wrapped in bandages, which was already dyed red with a large piece of gauze, and slowly lifted the gauze, and the blood immediately came out of the wound, and Mu Ran was wrapped in a violent moment, and at that moment, cold sweat fell.

And Mu Ran was still gritting her teeth, the clothes on her body slipped down, revealing a white sadness and meticulous bloodstains, she tightened her teeth, trembled her hands and picked up the white jade bottle in front of her, the powder fell, and fell on the wound with open skin, listening carefully, it seemed to make a sizzling sound, listening, it was a shocking horror.

There is more and more intense pain, this time, it is already sweating, sweat mixed with the wound, bringing only more and more exciting pain, and from beginning to end, Mu Ran did not groan, and tied back the bandage herself, she put on her clothes again, straightened the corners of her clothes with some folds, but her face was still calm, as if she had not endured the pain at all.

And the next day, Pipa City finally returned to its former brightness, the market was noisy, occasionally dressed in revealing clothes dancers mixed in the noisy streets, swaying and dancing in the eyes of pedestrians, charming eyes, seducing the souls of pedestrians on the road, Mu Ran quietly leaned on the window, looking down at this lively and jubilant everything, the best Oh Yu is to emerge with a subtle smile, but Pipa City has, but not only the joy of beating gongs and drums.

Every day in Xingtai, in the center of the city, all kinds of people who are either dying or already dead are carried down, thrown into mass graves, and then turned into dark clouds on the horizon, and black raindrops fall.

The loyalty of Pipa City is always full of the pungent smell of blood, and in the desolate place in the southernmost part of Pipa City, there is a foul smell of decay and disgusting, and on this day, the dead is a woman who is seven months pregnant, and she still has an only child, but she is already lying straight under the scorching sun, her skin is dry, her belly is protruding high, but her body is skinny, and no one knows what crime she has committed, but even if there are people who complain about this woman, in broad daylight, no one intends to risk their lives to stand up and help her say a word。

I don't know that after lying under the scorching sun for a long time, someone suddenly said, "That woman has been dead for a long time!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and their faces showed a look of pity, what a poor woman, and the child in her womb was also innocently implicated, and for a while, there was a lot of discussion, all for the woman who had been lifted.

Su Yu and Mu Ran stood side by side in the crowd, both of them looked at all this indifferently, for a long time, Mu Ran's eyes seemed to have a flash, his expression was slightly stunned, and finally said, "That woman, it shouldn't be like this, and the child in her belly shouldn't be like this." As he spoke, he stepped forward with a pair of feet.

Su Yu wanted to persuade her, but the hand that stretched out passed by Mu Ran, and he was silent, so he could only watch Mu Ran slowly walk forward step by step.

"Wait a minute!" A clear voice suddenly came from the crowd, everyone was in an uproar, no one thought that such three words, in such a cruel place, it was the first time to hear it, not to mention, it was still a stranger, looking at Mu Ran's outfit, one by one, his expression became complicated again, however, Mu Ran ignored those eyes, he just said coldly, "The child in her belly is still alive!"

At this point, the surroundings suddenly fell silent, and the originally suppressed twitter voice also fell silent at this moment, looking at each other one by one, but they couldn't say a word.

And Mu Ran still didn't have any expression, but let the woman be carried under the eaves of a nearby burrow, and a few rags were quickly pulled up, blocking Mu Ran, the woman, and everything that happened.

Someone said, "It's unbearable to be disemboweled!"

Some people say, "The intestines are coming out of everything, but it's disgusting!"

All of a sudden, the surroundings were even noisier than before, and there was a lot of discussion, not for the dead woman, but for a stranger whom he had never met.

And at such a noisy time, suddenly a cry rang out in everyone's ears.

Xingtai, which has always been full of death, has a new life for the first time.
