I still have two human skin masks left in my backpack, one for each of them, to disguise my identity for the time being. (The rest is redistributed and moves on.) We don't dare to leave the crowded towns anymore, and we don't trust anyone anymore.

The next day, we got into a tank truck heading west, got into a carriage that didn't pull goods, and staggered westward. The car was extremely slow, but fortunately it was safe, and there were no more dangers along the way.

The train became more and more desolate the more west, until it went out of Jiayuguan, and when we arrived in Dunhuang, our food and drinking water had been consumed, so we had to jump off the train and find a place to buy some water supplements.

Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, also known as Thousand Buddha Caves. It is the largest and most famous Buddhist art grotto in China. As a Buddhist, I came here and couldn't go to worship in front of the Buddha, but it was a wish. Roy and I didn't dare to stay in trouble for a long time, so we prepared a lot of water and packed the two of us full, so we found a place where no one was there and discussed our next steps.

Now there is no other way but to go to Xinjiang and cross the border to make plans.

We were working on the map when we heard a bell ring behind us. When I looked back, I saw a man walking with a caravan of camels. The man wrapped his head in a cloth and kept only one pair of eyes. He came to us and said, "Are you here to travel?" Do you want to ride a camel to Yumen Pass? ”

Roy and I didn't dare to have too much contact with people we didn't know, so we hurriedly said, "No thanks, we still have something to do, let's go first." ”

Just as he was about to get up, he heard the man say, "The whole world is taking you, and where can you flee?" ”

Roy and I were startled and turned back to look at him very vigilantly. Roy's hands grew sharp wolf claws, and I quietly placed my hands on the hilts.

Then the man suddenly removed the cloth from his head, revealing a head of snow-white hair! He smiled at us and said, "You guys are too careless, if you go on like this, you will be caught sooner or later!" ”

The person who came turned out to be Xu Bin! Roy and I didn't expect to meet him here, and we were relieved. Xu Bin handed us the two masks and said, "Let's go, the chasing soldiers are not far away!" ”

"Where are you going?" Roy and I asked as we put on our masks.

Xu Bin read the poem: "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, a lonely city and ten thousand mountains, why should the Qiang Di complain about the willows, the spring breeze does not pass the Yumen Pass!" Of course, it's out of the customs! ”

Yumen Pass is also known as Yuguan, commonly known as Xiaofangpan City. In ancient times, the Hetian jade produced in the Western Regions was transported to the Central Plains through here, so it was named. Yumen Pass and Yangguan Pass are sister passes, which are the main military fortresses and transit stations on the Silk Road. After leaving the two levels, you will enter the vast desert.

We followed behind Xu Bin, and then we heard Xu Bin chant again: "Weicheng is light and dusty, and the guest house is green and willow-colored. After these two levels, I don't know when I will be able to come back. Anyway, drink two glasses too, alas! There's a tavern in front, let's go sit down! ”

Roy and I hesitated, Xu Bin saw this, and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm okay, I have my own measure, I only drink one or two glasses, I won't get drunk." ”

Seeing that he is so determined, we can't say anything more. Along the way, I just ate compressed biscuits, and the birds faded out of my mouth. Just go in to open the meat and sacrifice the five internal organs.

This small restaurant is not big, only a small door face, a light box is placed outside, and the words "stir-fry, dumplings" are written, and the space inside is not large, and it is not clean. Three or five tables, a few old chairs, it was past the time to eat at this time, and there were no guests.

When we walked in, we saw the boss and his wife come to greet us. After ordering some wine and meat, I found a table in the back and sat down.

I asked, "How did you find yourself here, I thought I was going to leave it at that time after we broke up that day." Also, what about the dominatrix? ”

Xu Bin poured tea and said, "After you left that day, Yaksha and I played with the pursuers for two days. Who knows that they don't entangle me too much, but chase after you. I was used to being alone, so I let the Yaksha meet Wushan and chased after me alone. I know what happened to you along the way, and I knew you were coming here by looking at your direction, so I rushed here early. Actually, you don't know, I've been waiting for you here for days. I bought four camels, and I had nothing to do in the past two days, so I took the guests to Yumen Pass to play. Not for anything else, just to explore the way. The road ahead is all up to these four camels! ”

Roy and I couldn't help but give him a thumbs up, admiring him so much. The limelight is so tight, now whether it is Ouchi or Tangmen, as well as the Fifth Bureau and the Yuanshan faction, they all know that there are three of us, not to mention me and Roy, and there is a white-haired one, naturally Xu Bin. But Xu Bin was not afraid at all, and actually started a camel business.

Xu Bin said: "This is because they don't know me, I became famous late, and I usually go alone, so even fewer people know me." Everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that my nickname is a white ghost, but there are few who know my real name. Unlike the two of you, cultivators all over the world now know about you! Do you know, according to the reliable information I have received, the Demon Spirit Sect is also eyeing the two of you, I can't rest assured, so I rushed over and went with you, one more person, one more strength, isn't it! ”

I hurriedly said, "Xu Bin, I don't want to bother you......"

"Don't say it, no matter how you say it, we're still small. Moreover, without the tricks you taught me at the beginning, I would not be where I am today. Anyway, I'm still wanted, but I'm just an accomplice, and I'm going to go around the Black Forest with you, and it's said that there are a lot of good things in it......"

Roy didn't have any opinion on Xu Bin's forcible joining, and patted Xu Bin's shoulder vigorously, almost calling him a brother.

The wine and food soon came up, and I asked for a few plates of dumplings. We had a tumultuous meal, ate a round stomach, settled the account, and led the camel to Yumen Pass.

Although there is a vast sea of sand outside Yumen Pass, we don't need to prepare anything, in the past few days, Xu Bin has already prepared everything. Camels are big and small, mainly water! Three camels are mainly carrying people, followed by one camel carrying a large pile of substances. Tent sleeping bags, clothes and water, you name it.

On the way, I asked Xu Bin, "Why do we go into the desert instead of looking for an easy way?" ”

Xu Bin said: "It's easy for us to go, and it's easy for the chasing soldiers to go." Only by going into the desert can it be possible to get rid of them. Even if they chased in, there wouldn't be too many people. In any case, in our favor! ”

Out of the pass, looking back, the thousand-year-old Xiongguan, someone scattered, cutting off my connection with my hometown. I don't know when I will be able to come back again!

With a sigh, the three of them stepped on the camel and walked slowly in the direction of the setting sun.
