Chapter 135: Endless Sea of Sand
Chen An couldn't tell why he succeeded in breaking through again this time, of course, if he was given another three or four months, he would be more than ninety percent sure that he would ascend to the sky in one step and achieve celestial phenomena. But just now he wasn't even half sure, he just wanted to come desperately.
All this may only come down to the fact that God has not tortured himself enough, and he doesn't want to die early. Chen An thought.
Then he saw Gao Han who couldn't move, he didn't know that Gao Han had good intentions, but in his eyes, Gao Han and Qiu Kun and the others were no different, they were all executioners who slaughtered the civilians of Pingzegou, and they all deserved to die.
So he didn't wait for the stable realm to make a hurried move, and it was he who saw that Gao Han was inappropriate, although he didn't know why the other party suddenly couldn't move, but if he didn't take advantage of his illness to kill him, it wouldn't be Chen An.
Therefore, a six-way sword attack on the ground branch did not make a contribution, and Chen An immediately made up for a three-way sword defeat on the ground branch.
This move is much calmer than the previous move, and the manipulation and use of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi are more skillful, and there is no longer a need for a series of accumulation momentum in front of it, so it is sent out faster. He stretched out his right hand, his five fingers stood like a sword, and at the same time, seven pillars of qi were condensed from the edge of his palm, which also stood like a sword, and the twelve sword pillars surrounded a circle, three and three together, and the four poles stood side by side, and the earth, water, fire, and wind met, turning into a sword intent of destruction, and cutting everything into chaos.
Gao Han forcibly suppressed a mouthful of reverse blood, knowing that it was not clear to explain it now, so he would survive first. He took out a small round shield the size of a palm from his bosom, threw it into the air, and then he turned and ran without looking at the result.
The small round shield grew in the wind, and in an instant, it grew to a radius of three zhang, steadily blocking Chen An's blow.
There was no sound from the collision between the two boxes, and the small round shield was shattered in an instant as if it was corroded, but it also completed its mission and bought time for Gao Han to escape.
When Chen An was ready to make another move, Gao Han had already run away, he had the intention to catch up, but the realm was not yet stable, and he made a rash move, he was already slightly injured, and he didn't know how much the other party's backup was, and this time he shot with all his might, and the other party stood still and let himself cut, he couldn't kill him, it can be seen how big the gap between his just broken through celestial phenomena and these old top masters, if he is in a hurry, it will be difficult to guarantee what means will he have to turn the tables. So it's better to retreat first, and then make a plan, as long as you don't die, this revenge will be avenged sooner or later.
Over there, Gao Han has run out of more than ten miles, and his heart is extremely aggrieved, this time he is really capsized in the gutter, and he still has to rely on the mysterious weapon to save his life. You must know that for a high-minded and arrogant martial artist, it is a shame to use a mysterious weapon, and he can't firmly believe in his martial arts, let alone make a breakthrough and continue to improve, who uses the mysterious weapon, they are all killer assassins cultivated in the family, and the Yuan Ling martial artists who have no hope of promotion, a group of lowly people.
And today he relied on the most despicable mystery weapon on weekdays to save his life, Gao Han's heart was dripping blood, but today's battle was too weird, he simply lost inexplicably, first the other party's magical breakthrough, and then the weird blood shadow, what are these things. After going back, I will definitely find out what the blood shadow and blood pupil are, otherwise I will not be at ease in this life.
As for the moment, there is nothing to say, run first, and never stop if you don't run to the Shuobei boundary.
Thinking of this, the wind was blowing under Gao Han's feet, and it was a little faster, and he went all the way.
......
To the north of Jiuyuan and west of Yunzhou is the endless sea of sand known in the Western Regions.
Its length is only more than 3,000 miles, and the reason why it is called endless is because it carries too much death, too much helplessness, and too much despair. However, such a desperate region is not a dead Jedi, but a large number of merchants pass by every year, even if they leave countless bones and countless sorrows, they have no regrets. Guy is the only way to connect things, and once the goods are shipped, they can make a tenfold difference, and this kind of profit can't help but make people crazy.
But it is precisely because of this that in addition to natural disasters in the endless sand sea, there are also man-made disasters, that is, there are almost countless sand pirates of all sizes. There are as few as two or three people, as many as four or five thousand, or even tens of thousands. But no matter how powerful their power is, they must abide by the rules of the sand sea, because the sand sea has a master.
There is a place in the southwest of the endless sand sea, called the quicksand lake, the quicksand lake is not a real lake, the reason why it is so named is because it is full of quicksand, as long as it is not a top master who can fly to the sky, walking into this place, will be sucked into the ground by the quicksand, and there will be no corpse.
However, in the center of the quicksand lake, there is the largest oasis in the sand sea, with abundant products and abundant water, and the composition of this geographical environment can be described as bizarre, which makes people have to admire the harmony of creation, the harmony of life and death.
This danger of the quicksand lake is not enough to become a barrier to sand thieves and traders, because there is no supreme master in the endless sea of sand who can change the landscape and turn the moat into a thoroughfare. But it didn't become a base for some sand bandits, not because of disdain, food and water were the most precious things in the sand sea, and they were more valuable than gold.
Rather, it is because this is the residence of the master of the Endless Sand Sea, the center of the Endless Sand Sea, and the sacred place in the hearts of all sand thieves.
Anyone who has ever been to the oasis will be amazed at the ornate architecture at the heart of the oasis, and how miraculous it would have taken years to build such a palace in the middle of an endless sea of sand.
These gorgeous palaces, the appearance is splendid, the inside is even more extravagant, the golden cup and jade cup are just idle, the pearl agate is decorated at will, and there are more servants like clouds, there are blonde dancers from the Western Regions, there are dark-skinned slaves from outside the region, there are also shrewd stewards from Daqian, and there are more than 1,000 guards with scimitars and strong bones.
And there is only one master here, and that is the master of the sand sea.
Old Gordon was really old, lame, with thinning hair, and he walked like the most ordinary lame old man, limping. At this time, he Su Wu thorn brocade was draped on his body, dressed like an upstart, and held a white jade bowl in his hand, which was full of fat and oily things, and it was actually a bowl of braised pork. There is everything in the Western Regions, but it is rare to be able to eat braised meat that is only available in the south of Daqian. It can be seen that the luxury of this place also includes the gathering of chefs from all over the world.
He walked into a side hall with braised pork, the decoration here is not slightly worse than other places, but it is strange that there is a huge stone lock in a corner of the room, not to mention the weight of a thousand catties. The stone lock was cast with an iron chain the size of an adult's arm, and at the other end of the chain was a pair of shackles. The shackles were also very strange, in addition to the metal texture, there was a thick layer of cotton wool, and in addition to the cotton wool, there was also a layer of oily and slippery ferret fur, which was very luxurious, as if it was afraid of hurting the trapped person.
The person who is chained is indeed delicate, he is fourteen or fifteen years old, his lips are red and his teeth are white, his eyes are like stars, his cheeks are like high-quality mutton fat white jade, and the tender white is full of pink, he really looks like a peach blossom, if it is not because he is too thin to protrude the Adam's apple, it is really easy to misunderstand that this is a stunning beauty.
Old Gordon grinned, put the braised meat in his hand on the side of the small table with white jade noodles wrapped in gold lacquer, and said kindly: "You can taste it, this is what my ancestor specially ordered the kitchen to make, it has a southern flavor, and it definitely suits your taste." ”
The boy didn't say anything, just sat there and looked out the window.
It's been like this these days, old Gordon didn't care, and continued to laugh: "I know your thoughts, I locked you here, not to restrict your freedom, but to protect you, it's extremely dangerous here, if you run around, I can't protect you." As long as you are willing to agree to be my apprentice, I will immediately teach you supreme divine skills, and then you can go wherever you want, who can stop you, don't you say?"
The boy remained motionless, deaf to these words.
Old Gordon gradually lost his patience, he was not a patient person, don't look at his kind eyes now, he once made the entire Sand Sea, and even the entire Western Regions bow down for a hundred years, how could he be a soft-hearted person, the bloody incident he created can stop children crying at night in the Western Regions.
If the name of Cripple Gordon was still circulating more than a hundred years ago, now only the legend of the master of the sand sea remains.
Old Gordon is not from the Western Regions, but the Qianmin of Jiuyuan, at that time, Jiuyuan was sandwiched between the Western Regions of the grassland and the Great Qian, the war was continuous, and from time to time there were monsters from Jiuli and Xiqi Mountain who ran out to eat people, and the life really couldn't go on, so he thought about taking the road of endless sand and sea merchants, and as a result, he never came back.
Now the old Gordon can't even remember his previous name, but he still remembers the first shipment. That time, he was robbed and thrown to death in the desert, watching his brother, who was traveling with him, starve to death. Oh no, my brother was not starved to death, but propped up, and on the fourth day of his starvation he began to eat the sand, choked himself to death, and died in the presence of old Gordon.
Later, Gordon Sr. was rescued by another group of sand thieves passing by, and after that, he joined the sand pirates and began to commit theft. Because he was ruthless enough, he soon rose to the top of the sand pirate group and had his own money and power. However, he was seriously injured in a firefight with other sand bandits, and he lay in a pool of blood, watching the corpse birds gnaw at the corpses of his companions.
This situation reminded old Gordon of the first time he and his brother lay in the desert waiting for death, as if life had come full circle and returned to the beginning.
The terrible fate, as if no matter how much you struggle, you can't break free from the shackles, makes old Gordon extremely frightened, extremely indignant, and extremely hysterical every time he thinks about it later. Only blood and death could temporarily heal his wounds, which is why he was so tyrannical later.
But fortunately, the goddess of luck favored him again, he was rescued by a top master who was seriously injured and fled, taught martial arts, and he was also talented, and he became a teacher in just a few years, and gradually broke into fame in the endless sea of sand, and then he was a peerless master, stepping into the grandmaster, bloodily suppressing the entire Western Regions, and becoming the uncrowned king of the Western Regions. It was then that he also received the title of Gordon the Devil, which originally means devil and demon in the Western Regions.
After a few more years, he relied on his good martial arts and iron-blooded skills, and gradually controlled Botha, Hesa, Hami, Polo...... The regimes of several small countries in the Western Regions want to be truly crowned as the king of the Western Regions and compete with the Central Plains.
