Chapter 553: A New Experience
Judging from the map, because the entire boundary is not a straight line, and the desert is also strong and weak to the inland, it is a zigzag border, in which Guloulan is a relatively deep desert, thousands of miles wide, named after the ruins of a human city in the past.
Guloulan is an ancient desert country, but with the depletion of water sources, serious desertification, and the ravages of undead creatures, this ancient country finally disappeared in the long river of history.
The Quanzhen Gate is in charge of guarding, which is basically the once huge territory of the ancient Loulan Kingdom, which exists as a barrier for humans in the northwest region.
The city of Loulan that he is going to now has little to do with Guloulan, but it is the only one in this area that has a water source, which can barely provide basic living conditions for human beings, and a certain number of residents have gathered here, living on the desert, reading the book records, there are only a few thousand people, and such a number of people are not even as large as a village in the prosperous places in the southeast and southwest.
The harsh living environment has created a completely different customs and customs, and it also has its unique charm.
With the direction already determined, Hou lowered the height, he wanted to see the terrain below more closely, and it was said that the experienced locals would be able to find the exact path from the swirling distribution of the sand dunes, and this exotic experience was also a different experience.
Hou is a person who likes to experience different natural environments, so this place doesn't seem too bad to him?
This kind of thinking may only be shared by practitioners, because they don't need to worry about water shortages.
When he cleared his direction, lowered his altitude, and began to patrol at a low altitude, the scenery on the ground began to become clear.
In the middle of countless ring hills, half earth and half sand, a camel caravan is winding its way.
There were a small camel team of more than 50 camels, more than a dozen people in the team, and the rest of the sand camels were full of goods on their backs; The figures were wrapped in wide burqas from end to end, and there was no distinction between men, women, and children, except for a series of crisp camel bells that echoed through the vast and boring sand dunes, with the wind and far.
This must be a caravan from a nearby city to Guloulan, because there is no second place for humans to settle in this direction, considering that the closest city to Guloulan from the map is also more than a thousand miles, such a trip can be imagined to be difficult for mortals.
He wanted to see the people and experience first-hand how dangerous the journey could be, for him everything was still on paper, and everything needed to be experienced for himself, from now on.
As for when to report to Yu Zhengxing, it doesn't matter how many days early or late a few days, Sikong Mansion's purpose is to let him leave Yujing, and it doesn't matter if he runs on the road for a year.
Quietly landed not far in front of the caravan, because the sand mound obscured the view, and no one could see how he appeared; Then, go forward one foot deep and one foot shallow, keeping the speed slightly lower than the speed of the caravan.
Legend has it that the people here are fierce and simple, but I don't know if it's true?
As soon as he landed, he found that this place had an unexpected advantage for him, that is, his land retreat was like a fish in water in this desert environment, which was much more powerful than in Lizhihai, and it was also an unexpected result.
The camel caravan struggled to advance in the dust and sand, and the man on the camel was wrapped in an airtight burqa, and his body fell together with the movement of the sand camel, seemingly relaxed and natural, but his eyes never stopped observing the surrounding environment.
In this season, in such an area, travel, while still dangerous, is barely feasible; The human monks from the direction of Guloulan have been killing and searching the undead in this area, and they have managed to barely maintain the basic living space of humans for hundreds of years, stopping the undead from moving south, so most of the danger comes from the environment itself.
This situation is quite controllable within Loulan, but if it is outside Loulan City, it is an alternative risk.
The undead also have memories and intelligence, and they also know that this barrier is not easy to mess with, so they are in a kind of confrontational stalemate; But listen to those practices in Loulan City
The Qi Warriors said that in the last few decades, the invasion of undead creatures has begun to increase again, and the human monks are also feeling the strain.....
This is something that Qi Cultivator adults should consider, not something that mortals like them can worry about.
Turning a sand dune, the terrain in memory has not changed much, even if the sand dunes have changed slightly under the erosion of wind and sand day after day, but for them natives, they will not lose their way.
But this time, there was one more thing in front of him, a man walking on the sand, no burqa to cover himself, low-top boots were not suitable for this place at all, a sword on his back, but no bag in sight.
A sand camel jumped up behind him to keep up with him, and a slightly immature voice came from the short body under the burqa,
"Third uncle, he is a convincing man!"
Convincing Qi Shi is a name for practitioners in the northwest region, and they don't know much about practice, so they simply divide the practitioners into two categories, those who can fly are called Qi practitioners, and those who can't fly are called Qi Shi.
Most of the high-ranking qi practitioners are outsiders, but those who climb on the ground are mainly northwestern natives who have just entered the cultivation.
Seeing that his third uncle was still hesitating, the young man was a little dissatisfied, "Let's give him a sand camel, I don't know when we will go like this."
The man stopped his nephew, the young man was just too impulsive and not cautious enough.
"Wait! Let's take a look at it clearly first, Xiaoli, you tell you to be careful in the future, the bow and arrow are ready!"
"Third uncle, it's not necessary, right? The man walks with his legs and feet bent normally, and there are shadows, and if it is an undead creature pretending to be it, it should wear a burqa instead of an ordinary mainlander's attire.....
After all, but the boy still turned around and informed the camel team to be vigilant, and the children who grew up in the northwest did not need to be taught.
The adult males in the caravan began to drive the camels forward, each with a bow and sword, and in the vast desert, they relied not on luck but on their own prudence and courage.
The caravan approached slowly, the bow and arrow pointed at the distance, and the lone man turned his head, with an unfamiliar face, but there was no doubt that he was human.
Before the man could give the order, the boy was already shouting happily, "Visitor from afar, do you need a hump? And the sweetest milk wine in the desert?"
