Chapter 1: The Desert

The wind blows through the grass, the endless grassland is empty and vast, the cold wind is howling, as if a sharp blade cuts the earth, in this weather, even the strong grassland man, do not dare to herd horses and sheep outside against the wind.

In the middle of the steppe, a tribe of thousands of people pitched their tents, tied their cows, sheep and horses, cut large pieces of mutton in the tents, drank mare's milk wine, sang and cheered loudly, and celebrated their large amount of booty and victory in battle.

In a corner of the tribe, in a dim corner, a young man slowly opened his eyes, and there was still a trace of confusion in his eyes, but then he opened his eyes and completely woke up.

"Where did the Gate of Fate send me?" Gao Cheng shrunk back, his body was a little uncomfortable due to the cold wind blowing through the tent, in addition, he also had a feeling of weakness, when he first entered this world, he was suddenly hit by a force, and all the weapons he had prepared were shattered. Nothing has been saved.

Fortunately, with the protection of the Gate of Fate, Gao Cheng came to this world safely, but under the impact of that force, his body was shocked, and his strength was at its lowest point. You have to recuperate to recover.

Thinking back to the previous situation now, Gao Cheng also realized that the powerful force he encountered before should be the instinctive resistance of this world to the intrusion of external things. If there was no barrier from the Gate of Fate, he would have been shattered the moment he entered.

Gao Cheng's eyesight was strengthened, and he could clearly see the surrounding scene even in dim places, and he swept his eyes to see the surrounding scene.

The place where he was a big tent that leaked everywhere, and there were all kinds of cow and sheep dung in the tent, and the pungent smell kept coming, which made Gao Cheng frown.

In addition to him, there were nearly dozens of men, women and children in the tent, and there were gusts of wind howling outside the tent, and the cold wind passed through the cracks in the tent, making these people shiver from the cold, and they could only huddle together to keep warm.

"Brother Cheng, how are you doing now?" are you feeling better?" Gao Cheng was looking around when a person not far away heard his movement here and quietly leaned over and asked.

Gao Cheng's heart moved, he had only come to this world for a short time, how could anyone know his name, he turned his head to look, and it was a man with a scar on his face who leaned over to speak.

This man is burly, with thick hands and feet, the clothes on his body are stained with blood and blood, and there are marks of sharp blade cuts, coupled with the scars on his face, he looks fierce and terrifying. When talking to Gao Cheng, there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

"This man seems to have learned some kung fu, and he feels that his body is twice as strong as ordinary people!" Gao Cheng has reached the second level of soul cultivation, and his spiritual power is much stronger than ordinary people, and he can sense the breath of other people.

In his senses, the dozens of people in the big tent were basically ordinary men and women, while the scar man gave people a fierce feeling, even comparable to a first-level warrior who had stepped into the path of cultivation.

Gao Cheng's face was impassive, and he said softly: "I'm fine, where are we now?"

The man with the scar breathed a sigh of relief, his face was very unpleasant when he heard this, and he cursed a few words before he replied: "These damn grassland barbarians, who led us north yesterday, have now gone deep into the hinterland of the grassland, God knows what kind of place this is?"

"Brother Cheng, you have to heal your injuries quickly, and when you get well, our brother will find a chance to escape immediately, these barbarians don't treat us as human beings at all, if it takes a long time, our brothers will have to be planted here!"

Gao Cheng also pretended to be full of anger, kept talking to the scar man, and got some information from him. It turned out that when the Gate of Destiny consumed his power to send him to this world, in order to avoid the blow of the power of the world, he didn't know what kind of means he used, and directly weaved an identity for him. Fake him as the natives of the world.

His current identity is the son of a caravan guard in the Northland, and after his father's death, he replaced his father as a caravan guard, and the shopkeeper of this caravan has a good relationship with a tribal leader of the grassland, and often takes the caravan into the grassland to do business.

Not long ago, this caravan escorted a large number of goods into the grassland, who knew that the tribe that had made friends with the caravan shopkeeper had been wiped out by other tribes, and the caravan came up at this time and was immediately attacked by the pond fish, and the other party snatched the goods lightly, the caravan shopkeeper was killed, and everyone else was taken prisoner.

When the caravan was destroyed, Gao Cheng of this world relied on learning some martial arts to fight with the grassland barbarians, and finally was cut down and fainted to the ground.

Hearing this, Gao Cheng quietly checked himself, and did not find any knife wounds, being cut and unconscious should be an illusion caused by the door of fate deliberately distorting other people's consciousness in order to give him a buffer time.

Gao Cheng saw the scarred man's angry look, and said in a low voice: "Brother Licheng, you have a good rest first, if you want to leave from here, you must take care of your spirits!"

The scar man is called Xiao Lucheng, is a descendant of the Liao State, and the family used to have quite a lot of property, it is said that he learned to ride a bow and horse since he was a child, and he was famous in the township, but people were afraid of being famous and pigs were afraid of being strong, and his identity as a descendant of the Liao State was very embarrassing in the Jin State, and later he was calculated by the officials of the Jin State, and the family property was stolen, and he almost became a ghost under the knife.

However, he was superior in force, and after being in a desperate situation, he simply drew a knife and slashed the officials, and ran to the border area where dragons and snakes were mixed to mess around. Occasionally, he acts as a caravan escort out of the fortress, and his life is happy.

Xiao Lucheng answered, turned around, and was still muttering and cursing in his mouth, scolding the prairie barbarians who were thirsty for killing and plundering, and also scolding the caravan shopkeeper who had made him a prisoner.

"I don't know what the situation is in this world, according to the information we know now, the Liao State was destroyed and the Jin State was still there, which should be a certain period in the Southern Song Dynasty. Gao Cheng frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't figure it out, so he could only put this question down for the time being, and the most important thing now was to recover his strength and escape from this tribe.

The wind was howling outside, and the sound of the men and women of this tribe laughing in the tent was faintly accompanied by the sound of the wind, Gao Cheng closed his eyes and began to silently pose in the dark for the first layer of the pile gong.

Suddenly, a wave of hot air traveled through the body, and began to eliminate the abnormalities caused by the concussion. Although the first layer of the pile gong can no longer increase his strength in the slightest, it can mobilize the qi and blood in his body, allowing him to quickly recover his strength.

When the qi and blood were running all over the body, the cold wind that kept coming from the body was blocked, making Gao Cheng warm all over, and the original feeling of weakness disappeared quickly. After a while, Gao Cheng felt that his body had fully recovered, so he quickly stopped moving.

In order to speed up his recovery, he consumed some of the qi and blood energy in his body, and it was easy to go hungry without food essence replenishment.
