Chapter Seventy-Two: The Desert City
It was the morning of the next day when the Wind Sparrow Beast arrived in the Iron City, and for the sake of safety, Kong Xuan did not descend to the landing point of the Iron City according to the normal itinerary, he pulled out the amethyst card in advance, and let the Wind Sparrow Beast descend on the edge of the desert hundreds of meters away from the Iron City.
When the two of them descended to the ground, the Wind Sparrow Beast shook its wings and flew back in the direction of Meuse.
As soon as the two of them got off the wind and beasts, a hot breath instantly hit their faces.
Because the Iron City is on the edge of the desert, the air is very dry, and the scorching sun shines on the earth, causing a wave of heat to rise in the sand, constantly churning in the air.
The heat wave kept surging in the air, making the vision of the two of them appear a little distorted.
"I can't use my spiritual power"
On the side, Yixiao, who was trying to use the snowflakes to cool down, sighed lightly and shook his head.
Hearing this, Kong Xuan chuckled and said:
"Your physical condition is already unstable, and now it's daytime, the fire attribute should be extremely vigorous, you can't use it normally, it's fine at night, bring this one, and then we will go to the city." ”
After speaking, Kong Xuan took out the hat and brought it to Yixiao's head.
At this time, the role of the hat is greater, not only can cover Yixiao's stunning face, but also block the scorching sun.
Taking a puff of dry air, Kong Xuan pulled Yixiao and walked slowly towards the iron-colored city in front of him.
Yixiao just can't use her spiritual power, it's not that she can't use it, she can still do it if she doesn't be affected by the heat, as for Kong Xuan, when she followed her master to wander between life and death, she didn't encounter any difficult conditions, and she was afraid of this small heat wave.
As the two approached the iron city, the number of pedestrians around them gradually increased, most of these pedestrians were shirtless, showing their dark skin and very lean muscles, while most of the women were wearing wide, light-colored robes.
Compared with the clothes of the two of them, the clothes of the two of them are very different, and at first glance, there is no doubt that they are outsiders.
At this time, some passers-by smiled quite friendly when they saw Kong Xuan and the two.
Looking at the smiles of passers-by, Kong Xuan was slightly surprised in his heart, but out of politeness, he also smiled at the passers-by.
"The people here are very nice, Brother Kongxuan"
Looking at the friendly smiles of the pedestrians, Yi Xiaojiao smiled and said.
"It seems that the people here are quite good"
Hearing Yixiao's laughter like a silver bell, Kong Xuan nodded, and then rubbed his somewhat stiff cheeks rather helplessly.
Along the way, Kong Xuan raised his eyes to look at the huge iron city in front of him, and couldn't help but admire in his heart.
Compared to the historic old city of Meaux, this iron-colored city gave him an extremely heavy feeling.
Following the flow of people, Kong Xuan and the two came to the city gate.
At this time, at the city gate, there was a small group of soldiers standing, constantly checking the people who came and went, but Kong Xuan also noticed that it was actually just a fee, and the people who were charged were all outsiders like him.
"When I was in Mo City, I entered the city with the Liu family from the Soul Burial Mountain Range, and if I entered through another city gate, it is estimated that it would be the same..."
The scene in front of him made Dekong Xuan sigh that when he first entered Mo City, he couldn't help but murmur in a low voice.
Shrugged his shoulders rather helplessly, Kong Xuan pulled Yixiao forward with him. Charge for it, don't care, he has a lot of money anyway.
Although the weather was very hot, this group of soldiers in armor still completed their work in an orderly manner.
Walking to the gate of the city, talking with the soldiers for a while, Kong Xuan took out twenty gold coins, and handed them to the soldiers who collected the money as the "entrance fee" for him and Yixiao, and then went straight into the city.
"This young girl may be the eldest young master and eldest lady of which family, these days, there are a lot of such people"
A young soldier looked at the back of Kong Xuan and the two leaving, weighed the gold coins in his hand, and sighed lightly.
"A few days ago, the wild sand surged, a desert ruins appeared in everyone's field of vision, after people proven, it was not a mirage, so some people also came to admire, our iron city, it is going to be lively recently, you just look at the man dressed a few days ago, and it is a noble person. ”
A slightly older soldier beside him smacked his lips when he heard this.
"Okay, don't discuss it, get to work"
Hearing that the two people beside him began to chatter, the middle-aged soldier who looked like a captain not far away opened his mouth and admonished.
"Yes, Captain"
Hearing the middle-aged soldier's reprimand, the two soldiers smiled wryly and replied.
Walking out of the somewhat dark and stuffy passage of the city wall, Kong Xuan's vision of the two of them was slightly brighter, and the iron building with a special style appeared in the field of vision, and on top of some houses, there was also a wide iron hammer symbol, which made Kong Xuan's heart move.
"Brother Kongxuan, where are we going next?"
Yixiao on the side, a pair of snow eyes looked at the city curiously, and then turned his head, looked at Kongxuan, and asked.
"Find an inn to stay in first, then go to the forge shop, and then buy a complete desert map. ”
He also heard some of the soldier's conversation just now, and he groaned slightly at the moment, and replied to Kongxuan.
Hearing this, Yixiao's little head nodded and stopped asking.
The buildings here are not as bright as those in Mo City, and the buildings everywhere are basically the same length, and I can't help but feel a big head for a while.
Exhaling lightly, Kong Xuan took Yi Xiao's little hand, arched his hand towards a person on the side of the road, and politely asked where the inn was located.
After thanking the passer-by, Kong Xuan and the two followed the road they pointed out, walked into the inn, said to Xiao Er, and asked for two first-class rooms next to each other.
When he was on the Wind Sparrow Beast, although he usually spent most of his time together, when he slept, the two were separated, even if Kong Xuan was thick enough to dare to live in the same room with Yixiao, Yixiao would never dare.
Sending Yixiao into her room, Kong Xuan shook his head slightly, and then turned around and went into his room.
After a slight glance at the layout of the room, Kong Xuan couldn't help but smack his lips, this iron city deserves to be called the iron city, in the whole room, all the stone items are replaced by iron, which looks heavy.
After looking at the pattern, Kong Xuan's gaze casually swept the wall, and suddenly, where his gaze paused, hung a text and picture about the history of the Iron City, which included a description of the desert.
"Tens of thousands of years ago, here was originally an iron ore country called Sozenda, although the country is not big, but the mineral resources are very abundant, and there are many ancestors left some treasure relics, according to legend, there was a young woman at that time, this woman obtained a huge treasure that can shake the foundation of the mining country in the ruins, when the treasure came to the world, the sky fell colorful light, almost shining to the entire mining city, the lord of the country learned the news, decided to take back the treasure from the woman's hands, but when he saw the woman's true face, he was moved, let the woman stay as his side concubine, the woman was unwilling, but in the face of the lord of a countryIn less than two years, the woman died with hatred, and then half a year, a powerful sand attribute power, in order to find this woman here, and showed that this woman was his wife, when he learned about the cause and effect of the matter, he was furious, turned his hands, the yellow sand was all over the sky, and buried all the mining countries under the yellow sand, so that the whole country was buried for his wife, and then in the long history, this place was gradually called the Sozenda Desert. ”
Slowly retracting his gaze, Kong Xuan digested the information in it, and couldn't help but marvel in his heart, Chong Guan was angry, this sand attribute power, interpreted this sentence to the extreme.
