Chapter 210: Escort

Xiao Bai Yiyan stood at his feet and said, "I have no malicious intent, I just want to buy some water from you." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 As he spoke, Xiao Bai's gaze swept over the entire caravan, and he noticed that in addition to the black-clothed sword-bearing young man at the front of the line, there was also an old man and a woman sitting on the camel beside him.

The old man has a wide face and long beard, upright eyebrows, dark skin, and has obviously experienced a lot of baptism of wind and sand, and the woman is dressed in sackcloth, which seems to be afraid of the wind and sand and scorching sun in the desert, she wrapped her head and cheeks with a scarf, revealing only a pair of clear eyes like spring water, judging from the body shape, the woman should be a girl.

The camel the two of them were riding with a different shape, with a tall body and a tuft of purple hair on their heads, Xiao Bai judged that this old man should be the leader of the entire caravan.

As expected, after hearing Xiao Bai's request, the old man looked Xiao Bai up and down: "Little brother, what is your current martial arts cultivation?"

Before Xiao Bai could answer, the young man with the sword at the top of the line had already said disdainfully: "Old Peng, this kid is just a six-grade martial artist, and he can't stop my Liang Shulin sword, if you want to ask him to be a guard, he will definitely be a chicken-ribbed existence." "Obviously, the young man with the negative sword just judged his surface realm from Xiao Bai's breath.

"Oh..."When the old man heard this, his tone was slightly disappointed, but he still said: "This desert is extremely dangerous, although Brother Liang you are a martial artist of the Nine Rank Land, but after all, there is only one person, you can have one more manpower, and you can also have one more protection." ”

The old man turned to look at Xiao Bai and said: "Little brother, a bag of water in this desert is more expensive than gold, usually it has a price, even if you can really afford that price, it will be difficult for us to sell, but if you are willing to act as the guard of our caravan, I can sell the water to you, here to the west, every time you escort us for a thousand miles, I will give you a pot of water, what do you think?"

Xiao Bai glanced at the group of people again, only to find that except for the sword-bearing young man at the top of the caravan, the rest of the caravan were ordinary merchants who had not practiced.

Xiao Bai asked, "May I ask where are you going, old man?"

The old man said: "All the way to the west, to the heavenly ravine at the western end of the Red Dust Continent, if the little brother also walks west, he will definitely be able to go with us." ”

Xiao Bai knew that in order to prevent the invasion of the demons, the Western Frontier War Palace itself was not far from the heavenly gully, and he and this group of people could be said to be completely on the way, and according to the calculation of the caravan's march, it would take about seven or eight days to travel a thousand miles, and he himself could travel for ten consecutive days without dripping water with a black knife on his back, so naturally there would be no problems, and the water source on this road was guaranteed, so even if he agreed.

As soon as Xiao Bai finished speaking, Liang Shulin, the young man with the sword, was immediately a little dissatisfied, and said, "Old Peng, let's talk about it first, I, Liang Shulin, don't have the habit of riding a camel at the same time as others. "It turned out that the eight camels of the entire caravan were already ridden by two people, except for the one in Liang Shulin, and if Xiao Bai joined, it was naturally very likely that he would ride with him.

The old man was suddenly a little embarrassed, but now that Liang Shulin was the biggest support of the entire caravan, he didn't want to say anything, just glanced at Xiao Bai and said, "If the little brother doesn't mind, he can only squeeze us." ”

Xiao Bai said indifferently: "No need, old man, I originally planned to walk." "He really has to walk, on the one hand, the war palace stipulates that he can't rely on any external force, and on the other hand, Xiao Bai can only continue refining his body in this way, otherwise the weight of the black knife is afraid that ten camels will be crushed.

The old man glanced at Xiao Bai apologetically, and casually said to a swarthy man behind him, "Wang Gui, take a bag of water to the little brother first." ”

The man turned over and got off the camel and took a bag of water for Xiao Bai.

"This bag of water is a gift to the little brother. The old man said, "In the future, after every thousand miles, I will give the little brother another bag of water." ”

"Thank you!" Xiao Bai was not polite, opened the water bladder and drank most of it, the sweet spring water flowed into his lungs, and suddenly swept away the long-standing heat and fatigue in Xiao Bai's body, he tightened the lid and put the remaining half bag of water into the Time God Tower.

The caravan's eyes widened when they saw Xiao Bai's move, and even Liang Shulin showed a strange look.

The old man said: "I take the liberty of asking, does the little brother have a space magic weapon hidden in his body?"

Xiao Bai nodded and said, "Indeed." ”

The caravan looked at each other, and they were all extremely surprised, you must know that the space magic weapon is extremely expensive, even if it is a space magic weapon with the smallest space, its value is even more than a thousand camels, and the people who can have the space magic weapon are all from extraordinary backgrounds.

The old man asked suspiciously: "Since the little brother has a space magic weapon, why don't you store more water in the magic weapon and then enter the desert." ”

Xiao Bai smiled helplessly: "Because a group of us were thrown directly into the desert, we have no chance to store water at all. ”

Everyone in the caravan showed strange expressions, and they didn't know why, at this time, the Maiden in Mai, who was also called a camel with the old man, suddenly asked, "Could it be that you are a student of the Western Frontier War Palace!?"

The caravan has been walking in the desert all year round, and he has also heard of the nine lessons of purgatory in the Western Xinjiang War Palace, and he thought of the Wanzong Martial Arts Conference that had just ended, and he suddenly realized it.

Seeing Xiao Bai's nod and acknowledgement, the old man's face showed a look of excitement, because people from the Western Frontier War Palace usually have much higher combat power than martial artists of the same level, so he felt that Xiao Bai's true strength must be more than that of a six-rank martial artist, but the words of the sword-bearing young man Liang Shulin suddenly poured down like a basin of cold water: "You should be precise, I just joined the Western Frontier War Palace, and I haven't received much training from the Western Frontier War Palace." Liang Shulin's words undoubtedly reminded everyone that Xiao Bai's strength had not yet reached the level of an ordinary Battle Palace disciple.

Xiao Tian's indignant voice came from the bottom of his heart: "Dad, this guy is too arrogant, a mere nine-rank martial artist doesn't know what's so great, you beat him down with one finger." ”

"Forget it, I've found a water source anyway, so let him be proud if he likes it. Xiao Bai glanced at Liang Shulin and didn't care.

The camel bell gradually rang, the caravan began to slowly march towards the west, and learned in the conversation with the old man that the old man's name was Peng Dewang, a merchant from Zhongzhou in the mainland, and the girl was Peng Dewang's granddaughter Peng Lingshan.

And every year, they would go to the Western Heavenly Gully in the Red Dust Continent to purchase a treasure refining material of "Heavenly Gully Spiritual Water". This kind of material is only available in the Western Heavenly Gully, and it is a necessary material for the creation of space magic weapons, as long as it is transported back to Zhongzhou for sale, its value will increase by more than five times, which is also the reason why the caravan has to go tens of thousands of miles to purchase.

Every year, only at the end of December, the Heavenly Gully Spiritual Water will be produced, and the output is limited, so the caravan must arrive at the Heavenly Gully before December, so the caravan only summoned a guard from "Liang Shulin" before setting off, and had to set off in a hurry, wanting to continue to recruit on the road, which is also the reason why Peng Dewang immediately recruited as soon as he saw Xiao Bai, a martial artist.

"Since the Wanzong Martial Arts Conference in the name of 'Welcoming Demons' has been held, it means that the Demon Clan will attack the Red Dust Continent sooner or later, once the war starts, the way to the Heavenly Gully will definitely be sealed, and the price of the 'Heavenly Gully Spiritual Water' will inevitably rise wildly, I am ready to purchase as much Heavenly Gully Spiritual Water as possible, and then sell it. Peng Dewang's eyes revealed the wisdom of a businessman.

Xiao Bai also learned later that the large iron buckets hanging on both sides of the caravan were specially made to hold the spiritual water of the Heavenly Gully.

Since learning that Xiao Bai was a student from the Western Frontier War Palace, Peng Lingshan has shown great interest in him, asking this and that from time to time, after Xiao Bai and Peng Dewang talked for a few words, Peng Lingshan couldn't help but interrupt: "Brother Xiao, didn't you say that there are twenty people who joined the Western Frontier War Palace this time? What about the others?" Peng Lingshan still made a pleasant voice under the veil.

Xiao Bai said: "They went to the front, and I walked a little slower. ”

"Oh," Peng Lingshan paused and said, "I heard that in the last assessment of the Four Palaces Examination, I mixed into the Demon Clan, and almost made all the candidates die in it, and it was the 'Red Dust Wings' that saved you, right?"

Xiao Bai said: "To be precise, everyone is working together. ”

"But it's mainly the credit of the 'Red Dust Wings', right!?" Peng Lingshan's beautiful eyes flashed with excitement and reverence, and continued: "I heard that he is very remarkable, he has destroyed two major conspiracies of the demon clan and killed hundreds of demon clans, do you know him?"

Since the Four Palaces will try, the four words "Wings of Red Dust" have been touted by Mo Shatian, and their reputation has been rising, and they have the momentum of catching up with the "Dawn of the Human Race", and they are almost becoming household names, but most of the people only know these four words, and they don't know that the owner of these four words is called "Xiao Bai".

Xiao Bai later learned that this was Mo Shatian's expedient measure to appease the people, but it undoubtedly pushed him into the attention of the entire human race, because of his personality, he actually preferred a low-key life.

"I guess I know. Xiao Bai coughed lightly.

"Where is he now, if we speed up a little, can we catch up with him!?" Peng Lingshan's voice was expectant.

Peng Dewang couldn't help laughing and said, "Silly boy, since he is the Wings of Red Dust, his travel speed is naturally extremely fast. ”

Xiao Bai's face was embarrassed and said, "Not necessarily." ”

At this time, Liang Shulin on the side took over and sneered: "I don't see it, after all, there are too many people in the world who are vain, if you can really catch up with him, I don't mind comparing with him, let Miss Peng see what real talent is." ”

As soon as Liang Shulin finished speaking, the sand in front of him suddenly loosened, and three whip-tailed poisonous scorpions came out of the sand, blocking everyone's way. (To be continued.) )
