Sand.

Sun.

Cheng Peng and Xu Tu stood in the vast desert with no edge in sight, and were stunned for a while.

"Where is this?" Xu Tu asked.

"I don't know." Cheng Peng replied honestly, "I don't know more about Journey to the West than you do. Adventure 18

In fact, he knows very little about the popular Internet, and even the gods that have influenced a generation, although he has watched the movie several times in order to be able to complete the task better, but there are many artistic conceptions and settings...... Still at a loss.

This is also the reason why he did not invite Wang Hu, Qiao Xi and other top masters to enhance his combat effectiveness, but invited Xu Tu.

For dungeon reclamation, the military advisor is more important than the general.

There are a total of twelve players in this dungeon, and it is said that at least half of them should be able to fight, so there is probably no shortage of combat power or something, and what is lacking is people who know how to use these combat power at the right time and in the right way.

Cheng Peng's friends are quite broad, and he knows a lot of intellectual talents, among which there are three who have good friendships and may be able to invite their peers.

First of all, it is worth considering Yue Yi, this wise man who was once ranked as one of the four fools alongside Cheng Peng belongs to that kind of sunny talent, far-sighted, far-sighted, and always able to achieve his goals with clear strategies, which can be called an expert in "yang strategy".

But Yue Yi is now a busy man—as a military advisor of the Big Gun Guild, one of the largest guilds in East Asia, he is in charge of the development and development of several worlds, and he is really busy, and he is even so busy that he doesn't even have time to gather with old friends.

Even though Cheng Peng had the heart to ask him for help, he was really embarrassed to waste his precious time looking for uncertain gains in the newly opened world dungeon.

The second one worth considering is naturally Xu Tu. In terms of wisdom, Xu Tu can be said to be as good as Yue Yilai, especially in terms of urgency, and almost no one in Cheng Peng can compare with him.

But Xu Tu's problem is that this very amiable middle-aged man is a big villain in his bones, he spends all day thinking about eating his upper house and eating his next home, thinking about crossing the river and demolishing bridges to eat black, it is no exaggeration to say that he definitely belongs to the kind of public enemy of mankind!

If nothing else, let's talk about Cheng Peng's elven city - in exchange for King Arthur's sword scabbard, the Knights of the Round Table gave him an elven city located in the world of "heroes invincible", Cheng Peng himself was very busy, so he appointed Wende as the acting city lord and let this wanderer manage the city.

This is a big mistake he made because he was young!

At the instigation of Xu Tu, Wende, who was originally going to go to the post alone, fully used his talents as a female "sex" killer to abduct several high-level NPCs with names and surnames from Gensokyo, adding several special buildings to the city - such as the branch of Shouya Shrine...... He also won an incredible amount of bounties on the forums, and he had to deal with player assassins from the East every day.

So as a last resort, Cheng Peng really didn't want to ask Xu Tu to help with ideas, especially this time it was not a temporary move, but he had to always be with his peers to give advice at any time - God knows when Xu Tu would suddenly have a seizure and make some things that gods and men are angry about!

The last military advisor to consider is Shen Qi. She herself is erudite and talented, and she has an intelligence network that Yue Yi and Xu Tu can't match, and she is also a four-star magician who can fight, if she converts people's various abilities into data, she is definitely higher than Yue Yi and Xu Tu!

But Shen Qi has a fatal flaw - she is not Chinese.

Even though she is very fluent in Chinese, she is still an Englishman; Even if she can collect a lot of information about Journey to the West, she may not be able to truly understand the way of thinking about Eastern culture.

In normal times, this may be just a small shortcoming that is innocuous and innocuous in a newly opened dungeon where things are complicated, and it can cause a laughable mistake at a critical time.

So after thinking about it again, Cheng Peng still found Xu Tu and asked him to team up with him and go to "Journey to the West?" The first part of "The World Reclamation." Adventure 18

There was a full five days between the 7th day of the first month of GM's visit and the 12th day of the first month, when the world officially opened. In the past five days, Cheng Peng and Xu Tu have prepared a lot of things that may be used, and they can really be said to have armed themselves to the teeth, and they have made up their minds to strive for a higher degree of dungeon completion in order to get better rewards.

But no matter what they thought, they didn't expect this to happen.

The vast Gobi, the four fields are empty, the tiled blue sky and the gray and yellow sand seem to be connected, not to mention the location, even the southeast and northwest can not be distinguished.

What to do in this case?

"Let's locate it first." Xu Tu sighed, "You're doing archaeology, there should be a way to locate in the desert, right?" ”

"Of course...... But all of my methods are used on Earth......"

"I can't care so much." Xu Tu sighed, "I'll dig a hole to hide from the sun, you can determine the direction, and we'll set off when the sun sets." ”

So the two went their separate ways.

Xu Tu's work was relatively complicated: using the materials he had prepared in advance, he quickly assembled a small digging machine, a wooden beast shaped like a large mole rat, waving its iron claws, and digging quickly through the sand, digging a deep hole in a short time. Xu Tu also commanded it to use its sturdy body to press against the wall of the cave and reinforce the inside of the pit to avoid collapsing. When everything was done, he built a roof of solid steel on top of the pit to prevent him from being buried alive in the event of a sandstorm.

In general, he was professional.

In contrast, Cheng Peng did something a little silly: he first used a plumb to determine the direction of the vertical ground, and then "inserted" a javelin as vertically as possible close to the ground, broke off the head of the gun, and buckled a small shield on the barrel of the gun, like a lotus leaf. Then he poured a lot of water into the small "lotus leaf", and used the diagonal tip of the spear as a support to lift a filament that fell vertically into the water, and there was a heavy falling object under the filament to ensure that it was vertical.

The sun falls, and the vertical filaments cast shadows on the surface of the water.

Then Cheng Peng turned on the camera system, and while paying attention to adding water to the lotus leaf-like shield, he recorded the process of the shadow changing on the water.

Little by little, the shadows slowly shortened, and finally reached their shortest at noon.

When this time was determined, Cheng Peng put everything away and jumped into the hole to escape the scorching heat of the desert.

"How?" Xu Tu, who had been hiding inside, asked, "Can you determine our location?" ”

Cheng Peng did not rush to answer, but began to calculate.

In reality, to judge one's latitude and longitude, you need to use some special instruments. However, thanks to the help of a powerful camera system and some auxiliary measurement and calculation tools, Cheng Peng's determination of the azimuth went smoothly.

"So it's here......" It took him less than five minutes to calculate the latitude and longitude of the two of them, and then took out a map of China and compared it - if the world used the earth as a model, then they were now in the Gurbantunggut Desert in the Junggar Basin in northern Xinjiang, or in the desert closer to the center.

Just when Cheng Peng marked the location of the two on the map, a system prompt came from their system channel:

[You have successfully determined the location and officially activated the quest, please go to Wuyue Mountain, located at 86 degrees east longitude and 46 degrees north latitude, on the edge of the desert, to participate in the lottery to determine the identity of the horn "color".] 】

[The teams that arrive in the first two groups will receive 5% quest completion, the middle two groups will receive 4% completion, and the last two groups or teams that cannot reach Mount Gotogaku within five days will only receive 3% completion.] Hurry up. Adventure 18

"It's really embarrassing...... Cheng Peng sighed, "Although the location is determined, and the route can be determined, if we follow the orientation and distance of the earth, we have to walk for several days to reach Wuyue Mountain—this has to be in a good direction, and God has to help us, so we don't encounter sandstorms or anything......"

"Leave the direction to me." Xu Tu smiled, "Although the compass and system map are invalid, as a mechanic, the 'guide car' is a compulsory course for us!" ”

He did what he said, and between the sun set, he made a wooden ball the size of a football.

The structure of the sphere is very complex, and there is an equally wooden arrow in the center, pointing to the north that Cheng Peng had just measured.

"As long as you don't put it back in your inventory, it will always point to the north no matter how you change direction or run." Xu Tu said with a smile, "Many people think that 'Sinan' is the earliest guide tool, but in fact, the guide car is, and the specific principle is not much to explain, in short, believe in my technology, we will not 'get lost' in the desert." ”

His technique is indeed reliable.

In order to hurry up and prevent problems with Xu Tu's mechanism, the two set off after a short rest, regardless of the scorching sun and heat during the day, and regardless of the biting cold at night, they followed an almost straight line in the vast desert.

Sunset and sunrise, sunrise and sunset, when they ushered in the second sunrise in this world, after two days and a night of difficult trekking, the two finally came to the edge of the desert.

Turning over a sand dune, the sudden breath of life in front of you makes people feel refreshed: the yellow sand has gradually disappeared, and in front of you is the mottled Gobi Desert, sparse vegetation is gradually emerging, and even a stream appears that disappears from time to time.

Looking in the direction of the stream, on the horizon, there is a mountain that looks like a palm standing upright.

That was exactly the goal of their trip, Wuyue Mountain.

Or rather, Wuzhi Mountain.

The Journey to the West has finally officially begun......

Well, ask for a red ticket~
