Chapter 9 Adding Lamp Oil

There were no guards at the gates of Loulan City. It is obviously unrealistic to want someone to stand guard at the door all day in such extreme weather.

The buildings in the city are all made of adobe bricks, and they are earthy. Even if someone paints a different color, it will quickly peel off and return to earthy yellow under the action of weathering.

There is a one-acre square lake in the city, which should be the only source of water here, and a pergola has been built by the lake, which is guarded.

On both sides of the road are sparsely planted plants, mostly cacti and ferns.

When they arrived in Loulan, the two of them completed the escort mission and said goodbye to the caravan. The caravan leader thanked them and left them a box of goods as payment.

March opened the box, his smile suddenly fell, and he stomped his feet and said, "No business, no treachery!" ”

Yin Jue leaned over to take a look, only to see that there were many barrels of lamp oil in the box, and there was a heavy fishy smell. This is a lamp oil made from the grease of the mutant fishmen on Yingzhou Island, and it is said to be very resistant to burning, and one bucket can be burned for a year.

However, it is obvious that in the eternally sunny Fire Island, there will be no sales for such a thing as lamp oil.

"Do you want it? I've sent you. March saw that Yin Jue had been staring, and seemed to be very interested, so he hurriedly said.

Yin never shirked it, and carried the bucket of lamp oil into his arms - each character has twenty compartments of storage space, as long as the volume and weight of the items are within a certain range, they can be loaded into it by the action of "putting it in the arms". If there are more than one item of the same item, only one slot will be occupied.

March smiled and watched, there is no way to expand the storage space yet, so each grid is extremely precious, she will not waste the precious grid on this kind of thing, in case she finds treasure and has no place to put it will be a tragedy.

"Where are you going next?" Yin Jue asked as he filled all the lamp oil.

"I'm going to stay on the Isle of Flames for a few more days, and I'm going to see it for a long time." It's best to find the treasures of the Sunset Empire, or the Divine Weapon, March added in his heart. Of course, the key is because she has a fire avoidance bead, otherwise she is guaranteed to turn around and return to Shenzhou immediately.

"Me too." Yin Jue said.

"Then let's go to the hotel and go offline." March said that she should go to the hotel first, it was a long way from Shenzhou, if it wasn't for the fact that there was no place to get off the line on the road, she would have gone to rest a long time ago.

“…… Can I borrow some money? Yin Jue asked.

March stopped, looked at him with a smile, and said, "You still owe me a lot of money." ”

"I don't have any money on me now, I'll pay you back when I make money." Yin Jue said. In normal times, he would definitely not be able to borrow money, probably because of a masked towel, and his skin has thickened.

This idiot, when she pretended that an NPC sent her a quest reward, she wouldn't have given her all the money, right? The more March thought about it, the more likely it became, and reluctantly took out two gold coins: "Give, remember to pay me back double." ”

"Thanks, I happened to be browsing the forum." Yin Jue bowed his head and took it.

Seeing that he had listened to his advice, March was relieved and said with a smile: "Me too." See you in ten hours. ”

"Okay." Yin Jue looked at her, the masked scarf showing wrinkles, and he should have smiled back.

Sunset dunes.

Yuqing swung his sword and slashed off the head of a walking corpse, kicking it aside, looking around.

The desert was a huge labyrinth, she had little water and food left, and it was time to think about a return trip.

- However, she was not reconciled. Even if she dies here, she doesn't want to go back.

She wanted to sit down and rest for a while, when two figures suddenly appeared in her field of vision, one tall and one short, walking in the direction where she was.

Youqing narrowed her eyes, confirmed that the two were not monsters, and took the initiative to greet them.

The two men, a man and a woman, were both in their twenties, dressed in white cloth, with short red hair, and carrying long guns.

"In the lower left hill Huiyang, this is the sister Huitang." Man hugging his fists.

"Simon Youqing." Yuqing Road.

"It turned out to be the sister of the Simon family, and I have been looking up for a long time." The man laughed.

Youqing frowned slightly, women hate being called old the most, not to mention that judging from her appearance, this man should be older than her. Emotional intelligence is so low, could it be ......

"Is there anything I can help with?" She asked, furrowing her brow.

"Truth be told, we want to enter the legendary 'Lost Temple' and obtain the 'Stone of Valor' enshrined in the temple. It is said that there are many institutions in the temple and there are many dangers, and if my sister is willing to help us, I am grateful. ”

"Do you know where the temple is?"

"I have a map."

"Okay, I'm willing to help."

"Thank you, sister." Hui Yang said happily, pulled Hui Tang's arm, and motioned for her to say something too.

“…… Just call me Youqing. ”

"Thank you, Sister Youqing." Hui Tang said.

"Can you show me the map?" Yuqing changed the subject, and no longer bothered with the two NPCs.

Loulan City.

It was launched on time in March, and I walked around the hotel and didn't see it.

Eighty percent of them are fascinated by the forum, and they forget the time. Unwilling to wait, she decided to go to the city's "message board" first.

According to the information she heard at the hotel, she found a dry well in the corner of Loulan, where a white-haired assassin in black clothes and a mask was lying on the edge of the well to write a letter, which was exactly the seal she could not find.

Hearing footsteps, Yin Jue turned his head to look at her: "You're here." ”

I didn't expect that India would also have a message object. March smiled: "I'm here to write too." As she spoke, the wind suddenly rose in the well, and two pieces of paper floated from the bottom of the well and landed at her feet.

She squatted down and picked it up, both messages were from conservation, the earlier one said that he had found Beichen Qianmei, the descendant of the Beichen family, but Qianmei said that her brother Beichen Yinjue was the Destiny of Heaven, and asked her if she knew Yinjue's whereabouts; The other one was written yesterday, asking her why she hadn't replied and if she had run into any trouble.

She couldn't help but glance sideways at Yin Jue, only to see that Yin Jue was also looking at her. The eyes of the two touched and parted, and March stared down at his toes.

"Do you have any siblings?" After a brief silence, March asked.

"There's a younger sister named Qianmei, we haven't seen each other for ten years." Yin Jue threw the finished note into the dry well and replied, "There should be only two of us left in my family. ”

"Do you want to see her, then?"

"It doesn't matter, we will meet each other by fate."

March smiled slightly, leaning against the edge of the well and writing: Beichen is absolutely in the Flame Island. She then folded the piece of paper and threw it into the well.

"How's the forum going?" She stood up.

"There's a helpful post about a newbie graduation assignment that says......"

"I've read this post."

"There's also a post about the combat system, saying that the combat system of the 'Fantasy' RPG is very similar to another game, 'Age of Mythology', and there are many techniques to learn from, such as ......"

"I've seen this too."

"......" Yin Jue fell silent.

March smiled: "I visit the forum every day, and it's normal to read more posts than you. There is a big guy in the forum called 'Fireworks March', have you heard of it? ”

"Nope."

"She is a veteran gamer who has played almost all holographic games on the market, and although she has not made many posts, she is full of dry information and is very helpful for newcomers." March said without changing his face, "When you see a useful post, don't forget to like and reply, and put the post on the homepage so that more people can see it." ”

"Okay, I remember." Yin Jue nodded.

March was smiling and relieved: his 10,000-year-old post was finally going to be salvaged. If her character had a tail, it would probably have reached the sky by this time. She calmed down and asked, "Are there any good places to explore nearby?" …… The kind where you can find a lot of treasures. ”

"The Underground Palace." Yin replied without hesitation, "The royal palace of the Sunset Kingdom is buried underground in the west of Loulan City, and someone found the entrance more than ten years ago, but there are too many monsters inside, and ordinary people can't go deep at all. ”

"Okay, let's go here."

Sunset dunes.

According to the route on the map, the two of Ximen Youqing and Zuoqiu's family came to a sphinx.

"The map says this is the entrance to the temple, but why isn't there a door?" The three of them circled around the statue, and the left hill returned to the Yang Qidao.

"If you want to enter the temple, you must first pass my test." An old male voice sounded overhead.

The three of them looked up in unison, only to see the statue's mouth open and close, and a voice came from it.

"Ah, statues can talk!" Hui Tang exclaimed.

"Don't be afraid, I'm the priest who guards the temple, and I have attached my soul to the statue by secret means." The statue continued, his voice unwavering, "Just answer me a question, and I'll open the doors of the temple for you." ”

"Please." Yuqing Road.

"What's the most precious item in the world?"

As soon as the question came up, all three fell silent. There are many items that can be called "precious" in Fantasyland, but none seem to be worthy of the word "most".

"It's a soul doll." I don't know how long it took, Hui Tang said.

"Correct." As soon as the statue finished speaking, a door suddenly appeared between the two front legs of the statue.

Huiyang pushed the door open, and behind the door was a downward staircase, twisting and turning, with no end in sight.

"What is a Soul Returning Doll?" After entering the door, Yuqing asked.

"Yes, it's a very special kind of puppet that can give the carrier a chance to resurrect." Hui Tang whispered, "However, the method of making it has long been lost, and I have never seen it, but I saw it in a book." ”

Resurrection items! Youqing's heart set off a stormy wave. In a game where a character only has one life, the resurrection item is undoubtedly the most precious. Since the NPC mentioned it, then this item must exist, but the way to obtain it must be difficult.
