Since Xiao Yao has always been very low-key, he didn't alarm too many people when he left, except for informing Liu Bingzhong and Wuliang Hetai before leaving, mentioning that he wanted to purchase some rare medicinal materials at the foot of the Tianshan Mountain, he didn't say anything else. The two knew that Kublai Khan had given Meng Ge's rewards to Xiao Yao, and when they heard him say this, they did not doubt him, and after solemnly saying to take care, Xiao Yao's figure galloped out of the camp and gradually disappeared into a green sea of sky.

Because Möngke had previously sent his brother Hulegu to lead an army of 100,000 to the west to conquer Europe, in order to ensure that the army, horses, grain, grass and support could be transported smoothly, and also had the intention of supervising the army, he himself had already left the capital of the Mongol Empire and Lin, and marched all the way west with the army, and when Kublai Khan met him, his camp had reached the Ili River basin. The Ili River originates in the western section of the Tianshan Mountains, and it takes only a few days to travel along the Ili River to penetrate into the Tianshan Mountains, and the distance in between, is not very far. At this time, Xiao Yao came out of Meng Ge's camp, and after seeing the direction, he went all the way towards the mysterious Tianshan Mountain.

Although Xiao Yao knew that the Ethereal Peak was located in the southeast of the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom, he was not very clear about the specific location, but he vaguely remembered a warm and humid place at the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and based on this impression alone, he wanted to find it in the Tianshan Mountains with a total length of more than 2,000 kilometers, which was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. At this time, after galloping out of the basin of the Ili River, he looked at it, only to see the mountains in the distance, like continuous waves, and in the vast expanse of the sea, the silver snow covering the ridge was like a white and flawless scarf. This scene, if it is placed in the eyes of others, it is obviously the best in the world, and it can be used in such a majestic way to show the "tenderness" here in the hands and clouds, and I am afraid that this is all there is to the world. But when Xiao Yao saw this scene, he was very unhappy in his heart.

Despite this, he was not discouraged. Although the task is heavy, it is not impossible to start, because he clearly remembers that the ethereal peak is not high in altitude, and not only is there no ice and snow around, but it is foggy, and it is impossible to see the face of the mountain for at least half a year in a year, so it is named the Ethereal Peak. This kind of landform is very different from the snow and ice in the Tianshan Mountains where it is located, and it should be very easy to find if it is done properly. Moreover, the so-called vulture palace on the peak is actually both a castle and a bazaar, although it is said to be in the ethereal peak, but of course it is not completely on the top of the snow-capped mountain, but relying on the mountain, built on the danger, the peak of the eighteen days of danger, such as the Broken Soul Cliff, the Immortal Sorrow Gate, which one is manpower? Such a distinctive building, will also leave traces that cannot be extinguished by the years, this is one of the clues.

At this time, although more than 100 years have passed since the Tianlong era, the power of the Vulture Palace may have long disappeared, but after all, in those years, the Ethereal Peak was within the scope of its control, and its name was often only heard on the rivers and lakes, but someone has never seen its shape, even the thirty-six cave masters who surrendered to the Vulture Palace, and the seventy-two island owners who came to meet the Jiaojiao, were also blindfolded, and it was difficult to see with their own eyes, so the location of the Vulture Palace was never known to the outside world, and naturally there were a lot less swords and swords, showing a peaceful and peaceful scene。 In this way, it may be difficult for outsiders to peek into the secrets, but the locals may not be unaware. A hundred years have passed, and perhaps through the legends passed down from mouth to mouth at the foot of Guò Tianshan Mountain, you can find the clues of the vulture palace that was very prosperous in those years, which is the second clue.

After summarizing these two clues, in the face of the vast snow-capped mountains, Xiao Yao was slightly determined. At this time, he suddenly thought that he was a wolf when he fled to Dali before, and the situation he faced was probably the same, but then he still found the blessed land of Lang Huan, and couldn't help but secretly said in his heart: "As the saying goes, hard work pays off." This time I advance into the Tianshan Mountains, I only need to do my best, as for whether there is a harvest or how the harvest is, it is useless to think too much, it is better to listen to the destiny of heaven in peace. Thinking of this, his heart suddenly widened, the whip of the horse was lightly raised, and the horse suddenly stood tall, and the sound of a clatter came out of his mouth, and in the next second, it was like an arrow from the string, leaving only the flowers and plants flying under the hooves dancing alone in the air.

Three days without words, Xiao Yao was unhurried, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and came to a large market closest to the Tianshan Mountains, after this market, as long as you go more than 100 miles, you can go deep into the Tianshan Mountains, which is the only market for the herdsmen of the Tianshan Mountains to communicate with the outside world. Xiao Yao led the horse and walked in it, now there are not only the people of the Western Xia Kingdom, the herdsmen of the Tianshan Mountains, the Mongols, but also the merchants of the Central Plains, the people of Dali, etc., they live in harmony here, buy and sell, only use gold and silver to judge the value, do not use force to kill heroes, so they are also self-contained, and live very harmoniously. He walked around, and now this place is really different, the Tianshan Snow Lotus, Ganoderma lucidum and other things that Meng Ge gave to Kublai Khan already belong to the ranks of the best elixirs, and compared with the boutique goods in some big shops here, whether it is the year or the size, but it is obviously several grades worse, and the treasures here, even some of them are not even necessarily in Meng Ge's Khan Court, Xiao Yao read here, only felt eye-opening.

Under his deliberate contact and understanding, he gradually understood the local customs of the Tianshan Mountains and the living habits of the herdsmen. They usually live at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and they have to go into the mountains every day to collect medicines, and then take the rare medicinal materials such as snow lotus and ginseng to this market to sell in exchange for other necessities. These people have lived here for generations, and their ancestors have lived like this, and nothing has changed, and as for those treasures that are worth thousands of gold outside, in their eyes, they are only bargaining chips in exchange for livelihood, and even gold and silver are not so important to them. In their eyes, what they really regarded as treasures were the silk and silk that were commonplace in the Central Plains, and the food crops that could not be perfectly supplied by the barren and backward mountainous areas. Such an indigenous person is the ideal guide in Xiao Yao's consciousness.

After buying all kinds of cotton clothes, rice noodles, sickle hooks and ropes and other daily necessities that can impress the herdsmen, Xiao Yao set off immediately. In order to hide people's eyes, he did not directly inquire about the news in this market, but planned to wait until he entered the mountain, and then find those aborigines in the Tianshan Mountains, and look for the legendary Ethereal Peak little by little according to his previous thoughts. He drove an ox cart into the mountain, and the cart was full of all kinds of supplies, and these things would pave the way for Xiao Yao to knock on the gate of the Vulture Palace. He walked along the rugged mountain road, and after two days, he finally saw a herdsman collecting snow lotus in front of a cliff. Xiao Yao waited for him to finish collecting, and then respectfully stepped forward to talk.
