Before leaving the nineteen states of the Central Plains and heading to the desert of northern Xinjiang, Du Heng had done a certain degree of investigation on this extremely vast desert.

However, due to the limited sources of information, he naturally did not have much information about the desert.

I only knew a little bit about the situation before.

Now, as he flipped through the two booklets he got from Liu Sanniang, a lot of information about the Northern Xinjiang Desert was clearly presented in front of him.

The so-called "desert" is actually just a general term for some areas of northern Xinjiang in the Central Plains, which is used to refer to areas that are different from the grasslands of northern Xinjiang, the ice fields of northern Xinjiang, and the snow-capped mountains of northern Xinjiang.

Its scope is also the largest of the regional concepts of "Northern Xinjiang".

From the western part of Hezhou to the western part of Liangzhou, there are vast deserts and Gobi deserts in the north, but some of them are directly bordered, and some of them have a certain area of excess.

These deserts and Gobi are commonly known as the "Northern Xinjiang Desert".

It is said that this desert has been formed as early as the Great Qian Dynasty, which is considered to be the mythical era, and there are many visions in it, and even the laws of heaven and earth are very different from normal places, and there have long been many strange places.

Legend has it that this is because during the Great Qian, there were several supreme beings of the god and demon level who fell here.

This not only left the vast desert and the adjacent door on this land, but also affected the laws of heaven and earth here, even after tens of thousands of years, it has not been able to return to a normal state.

Now, according to the area covered by the laws of different heaven and earth, combined with many oasis and dark rivers, it is divided into more than ten places in this vast and boundless desert.

The strength and scope are relatively large, such as the "Aragami Desert", "White Bone Desert", "Netherworld Sea", etc., all of which are large deserts that span tens of thousands of miles, and there are many strong people.

Many of the top forces in the Northern Desert fled into it during the changes of dynasties. Therefore, there are many forces in this desert that still inherit the divine skills and divine weapons of the ancient era, and their strength is unfathomable.

However, these big forces are all in the core area of the desert, and they rarely come into contact with the people of the nineteen states of the Central Plains, and the group of barbarians who are most familiar to the people of the Central Plains are not the aborigines of the Northern Xinjiang Desert.

After all, according to the legend, the aborigines who lived in this area during the Daqian era had long since been wiped out by the war between gods and demons.

The barbarians mentioned in the Central Plains are actually a general term for the aborigines living in the grasslands and ice fields of northern Xinjiang.

Their appearance is very different from that of the Central Plains.

Legend has it that because of the blood of gods and demons in the body, it has a peculiarity in physical appearance, and then different tribes are divided according to different blood sources, scattered on the vast grasslands and ice fields in northern Xinjiang.

However, since most of the grasslands and ice fields do not directly border the Central Plains, this leads to the barbarians having to pass through the desert first, and over time, many tribes choose to settle in the desert.

In this way, today's desert barbarians and steppe barbarians were formed.

As for the Ice Plains barbarians, they were injured by Chen De's army in the Great Weekend Year, and they were much farther away from Middle-earth than the grassland, and they hadn't gone south for a long time.

It is said that he has turned to the west to attack the countries of the Western Regions and beyond.

However, the pamphlet said that the leader of the Eagle King Golden Horde, who may unify the grassland and desert barbarians in the near future, is a barbarian from the ice field, and may also have the support of the Netherworld Sea, which is extremely powerful.

"It turns out that this Eagle King's Golden Horde is not a top force in this desert at all." Du Heng was a little surprised in his heart.

Originally, he thought that the barbarians of the Eagle King Golden Horde who agreed to the desert and the grassland must be the number one force in the desert, but now it seems that even if it is not a small minion, it is definitely not a particularly powerful force.

It may even be just a pawn used by some top desert forces to test the strength of the Central Plains.

"The water in this desert is very deep, no, I should say that the sand is very deep." Du Heng continued to look at the booklet in his hand, and said secretly, "According to the description above, the overall territory of the desert is probably larger than the nineteen states of the Central Plains combined."

"If the legend is true, and this desert is really created because of the fall of gods and demons, then how strong will the existence of gods and demons be in the Great Dry Period, the peak of the Divine Gate, or the existence above the Divine Gate?"

This made him deeply feel that this world was far more dangerous than he thought.

Originally, he thought that after all the temples of the five internal organs were built and the five elements gods were raised, he would be able to sit back and relax.

After all, at that time, the Shenmen level was definitely not his opponent.

Now it seems that it is not so simple.

"There are a lot of secrets and unknowns in this world, should I keep a low profile or a low profile, on the surface, I will maintain the Essence Refining Realm first, and then 'break through' to the Entrance Realm normally after a while."

Du Heng made up his mind in his heart, and said secretly: "There are 100 points, and one point is exposed, which is the safest, and you can also avoid putting yourself in danger."

"I am immortal, and I have the Tao Sutra in my body, as long as I cultivate step by step, I can continue to condense new Dao species, and sooner or later I will be invincible, there is no need to covet the scenery overnight.

"What I want to do now is to build the Earth God Temple as soon as possible and raise my strength to the level of the Divine Gate as soon as possible. In this way, while building the next temple, you can collect the love of earth and water together.

"In these two booklets, some of the wonders of the desert are described, the ruins of the shrine, the sunset Jinsha Bay, the great maelstrom of the desert, the hurricane sandforest...... But it's just a description of the scene, and there is no clear location, so this is paid content? ”

Thinking of this, he looked up at the counter, which happened to meet Liu Sanniang's gaze.

Liu Sanniang did not dodge Du Heng's gaze, but blinked her eyes charmingly, her red lips were slightly upturned, revealing a very seductive smile.

Bang!

Du Heng closed the booklet in his hand, and in his memory, after reading one side, he memorized all the contents of it, and then walked to the counter again.

"Boss, three questions."

"Okay." Liu Sanniang nodded softly, glanced at everyone present, and then said to Du Heng with a smile, "Little Taoist, this paid content can't be in the lobby, come with my sister." ”

As she spoke, she walked out of the counter with a delicate and delicate figure, and with a slight movement of lotus steps, her clothes swayed, and she walked up the stairs with a gust of incense, and walked to the room upstairs.

Du Heng also followed.

Now there was only that group of big men left in the lobby, and some people looked blankly in the direction of the stairs and muttered, "I really want Sanniang to guess my face with her feet." ”

Burst!

The people around couldn't hold back and squirted out the wine in their mouths.

Then he burst out laughing.

"Fucking step on your face, Sanniang can kick your dog's head with one kick!"

"Do you think Sanniang can't hear it, when Sanniang comes down, you'll be fucking finished, hahaha!"

The air was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

He Qing sat with his "co-workers", looked at the direction of the stairs with some concern, and asked a middle-aged man beside him in a low voice: "Captain, Brother Xujing will be fine." ”

"What do you mean?" At the bow of the boat was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, with dark skin and a small build, but very strong.

"This proprietress is in her thirties, I heard that women are as good as wolves in their thirties and forty as ......" Before He Qing could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a knock on the head from the bow of the boat.

"Think less of this nonsense." The bow of the ship lowered its voice and said, "I see, this Silent Trailmaster should also be interested in that ancient ruin, and want to ...... Well? Wrong! ”

"What's wrong?" He Qing hurriedly asked.

"It's okay, it has nothing to do with the Void Quiet Trail Chief." The bow of the boat moved its ears, pointed to the outside of the inn, and said to He Qing and the people around him, "You can stay by my side later, don't run around." There's a group of murderers coming, still chasing and killing a girl. ”

"Is it a horse bandit?!" He Qing's eyes were suddenly full of hatred.

"No, it is estimated that he is a martial arts master of the Central Plains who explores the ruins." The bow of the ship said in a deep voice, "Let's wait and see what happens, even if there is a real problem, the proprietress here will take care of it." ”

……

At this time, Du Heng and Liu Sanniang, who had already come to the room on the second floor, also noticed the movement outside.

There are five men chasing a girl.

That girl's light skills are quite subtle, and the five people behind her are obviously higher than her martial arts, but they still can't catch up.

And the direction of her escape is the Jiangmen Inn here.

The route is impartial, and it is clear that the goal has been identified for a long time.

Du Heng looked out the window, smiled and asked Liu Sanniang, "Boss, this inn also provides protection business?" ”

Liu Sanniang stroked the broken hair on her forehead and said with a smile: "As long as you can afford the silver, the old lady will even protect the people who the Shenmen wants to kill, why did the little Taoist take a fancy to the girl outside?" ”

"I'm here to ask for news, not to help you with your business." Du Heng shook his head, he didn't plan to meddle in this kind of Jianghu incident that had nothing to do with him, "I want the detailed location of the ruins of the Divine Palace and the sunset Jinsha Bay." ”

"Okay." Liu Sanniang nodded with a smile, and then put her hand into her towering arms.

She fumbled inside for a while, took out a jade plaque that looked very shabby, and handed it to Du Heng, "The ruins of Shengong are not accurately pointed, if you want to hold this jade plaque, you can see the entrance after walking in the direction of sunrise for three days."

"As for the sunset in Golden Sands, it's in ......"

Bang!

At this moment, the sound of the door being smashed came from downstairs, interrupting Liu Sanniang's words.

Immediately after, there was a noisy and chaotic sound, which should be the sound of tables and chairs being smashed, mixed with the shouting and scolding of a group of big men downstairs.

However, these shouts were quickly silenced by a vicious voice.

"If you don't want to die, all stand still and don't move!!" The momentum of this voice is very strong.

Then he seemed to be asking someone again, "Little girl, Lao Tzu chased you from Sunset Jinsha Bay to here, and finally caught you, tell Lao Tzu quickly, where is Jiang Huaixi's dead girl!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Liu Sanniang in the upstairs room changed her face, and her originally charming and dynamic demeanor suddenly became extremely gloomy.

She turned her head to look at Du Heng again, but saw that the little Taoist priest had long since disappeared.

"These dogs are in, and the money from the news of Jinsha Sunset Bay hasn't been earned yet!

"Five hundred taels of silver!"
