Chapter 152: The Stronghold (I)
One" is here. ”
There were no thrills and dangers along the way, Yan Qing and Ah Cheng arrived at their destination.
The two jumped out of the carriage and looked at the village not far ahead, and couldn't help but feel a little emotion in their hearts, it was worthy of being a stronghold built by several top forces, although it was only a temporary construction, but the scale was larger than an ordinary town.
"Without further ado, let's go over and find the meeting place of my Yanyun Sect first. ”
Ah Cheng's eyesight is now much stronger than Yan Qing's, she can clearly see the prosperity in the village in front of her, and this secret realm opening has really become a grand event.
Yan Qing nodded in agreement, the two got back into the carriage, and the two sand-stepping horses galloped up and rushed to the front.
......
On the wide street, the left and right sides are full of stalls, selling all kinds of fierce beast materials, ores, pills, weapons and other things, all kinds of dazzling.
Gu Lei was mixed in and also set up a stall. He sat there with a weathered face, a black cloth spread out in front of him, and objects were laid out on it.
Most of them were materials collected from some of the fierce beasts he killed during his visit to the desert, and a few of them were stolen goods obtained by killing others, such as long swords, lock sickles and other weapons that he didn't use.
Of these, the most valuable of these things is probably the teeth of a pair of blood-winged sand bats. The Bloodwing Sand Bat is a Xuan-level fierce beast, and its teeth are top-notch Xuan-level materials, in addition to the usual use to make weapons, it also has its special use, so it is very valuable.
Gu Lei sat there and looked at the stall patiently, and it would take a while for someone to stop, and most of them would come to ask the price of the pair of teeth, but in the end, they couldn't negotiate and left.
Half a day passed, and until noon, Gu Lei couldn't sell a single thing, but he was not in a hurry, just quietly took out the water bag and dry food, and began to eat his lunch.
After worshipping the Yanyun Sect, Gu Lei did not return to the Gu family, he was still holding his breath, and he would only return to the Gu family when he had enough strength to kill his enemy Sun Ji 100%.
Because of this, he was unable to get the support of the family's resources, so he is now strapped for cash.
When I came to this stronghold in the desert, I didn't want to miss the secret realm that happened once in three hundred years, and secondly, I had to experience it. It just so happened that people from all walks of life gathered, and Gu Lei also learned that many people set up stalls here in exchange for some money.
He has been here for several days, and every other day he will go out to the desert to hunt for fierce beasts, drink their blood to replenish water, eat their flesh to solve every meal, and the collected fierce beast materials are of high value and are sold the next day.
In this way, although the days in the desert are hard, it is a good experience for Gu Lei.
"That Sha Luo is really a dangerous person, coming to this desert land, it has become his home field, making his combat power several times stronger. ”
Nibbling on the dried meat of the beast he smoked, Gu Lei recalled the Sharo he met by chance in the desert yesterday.
At that time, Gu Lei was chasing the blood-winged sand bat, and he happened to see a figure carrying a huge gourd in the distance, and Gu Lei recognized this senior brother who worshiped the sect at the same time.
Gu Lei saw that Sha Luo was not fighting anyone or a fierce beast, but was fighting a huge desert tornado alone, and the scale of the tornado was several times larger than the common ones in the desert.
What the hell is he doing?
Gu Lei's thought at the time was this, he couldn't understand what the hell Sha Luo was doing, but he soon understood that the super large tornado was not naturally generated by the desert, but by Sha Luo through his martial soul ability. Obviously, this is Sharo experimenting or practicing his new moves.
Gu Lei asked himself, if the distance was close, even if he used all his strength to launch the speed of the black panther, he might not be able to escape the devouring of such a big tornado. Unless he kept enough distance in the first place, he was able to escape with his speed.
felt the strength of Sha Luo again, but Gu Lei himself did not stop to look more, but accelerated to chase his prey and left. For a dangerous person like Sharo, he never wanted to have more contact, even if he has now become a fellow disciple.
"Huh, it's ...... them."
No longer thinking about Sha Luo, Gu Lei opened his mouth wide again and took a bite of the jerky, chewing dryly, while his eyes drifted away at will, looking at the other stalls around him, and suddenly his eyes froze, and he saw a man and a woman walking slowly with a carriage in the middle of the road.
It was Yan Qing and Ah Cheng.
When they entered the stronghold in a wagon, they slowed down, and the men got out of the wagon. Seeing this dense row of stalls, I couldn't help but walk more slowly, scanning the things on each stall all the way to see if there was anything useful to me, and I could buy it on the spot.
And when Gu Lei saw them, Yan Qing didn't feel anything, but Ah Cheng turned his head with a slight frown, and found Gu Lei's location with a quick sweep of his eyes. Her face was slightly surprised, obviously recognizing Gu Lei, and then nodded to the latter kindly.
Gu Lei also nodded in response, and then didn't make any moves, watching the two of them slowly move away.
After eating the dry food and drinking most of the water in the water bag, Gu Lei continued to sit motionless, waiting for someone to come and buy his things.
After a while, he saw a few more familiar faces.
One is a tall and thin man with a sword who he met in the desert in the past few days, and is also a disciple of the Shenyin Sect, the top power of the Jokhang Kingdom. Like Gu Lei, he often went into the desert to hunt and then returned to the stronghold to sell for money.
Today, this person obviously gained a lot, carrying a desert wolf-type beast swaggering over, passing by Gu Lei's stall with a smile and leaving, I don't know what he will do with the wolf's corpse.
Not long after this person passed, Gu Lei saw a few more classmates, but this time, he knew the other party, but the other party didn't know Gu Lei.
There are two women and a man, one man and one woman are two brothers and sisters, one of whom is called You Zhi, who has cultivated a profound secret method of raising insects, and has countless small insects hidden in his body, and his strength is extraordinary and he has become an elite disciple not long ago. Even more famous is another girl, named Chu Tian, who is the descendant of the third surname of Yanyun Sect, and her bloodline talent black pupils are mysterious and unpredictable.
Gu Lei got a lot of rankings after the sect competition, but he actually had reservations, he didn't go all out, and he didn't challenge the elite disciples. So there are not many people who know him, but he knows You Zhi and the others.
"Black pupils are indeed a difficult natural ability. ”
Gu Lei only glanced at the three of them with his peripheral vision, so he didn't attract the attention of the other party, and the three of them walked away while strolling through the stalls.
