When it comes to the northwest frontier of the Great Wilderness, I believe that the five big characters of "Yumen Pass Military Fortress" will appear in everyone's minds. It is enough to see the fame of this desolate clan as the military border fortress known as the first level in the world.

The majestic jade gate is easy to defend and difficult to attack, like a nail that never falls, fiercely inlaid between the western desert of Hanhai and the northern plains of Linhai. Since the establishment of the Yuguanmen Military Fortress, the Great Wilderness has truly been able to attack and retreat in the northwest direction. For tens of thousands of years, the Yuguanmen Border Fortress has been the most relied on barrier of the Desolate Clan in the Northwest Frontier.

In fact, Yumen Pass did not originally exist as a military fortress. In the Great Wilderness, there was such an interesting story about the deeds of Yumen Pass:

In the past, a long, long time ago, there was a caravan passing through the Northwest Wasteland, and among them was a kind young man who rescued a wild goose while traveling. Later, when they passed through the Yumen Pass, they lost their way and lost their way. Fortunately, the rescued wild goose flew back with a spirit and took the caravan out of Yumen Pass.

Later, in order to prevent latecomers from getting lost in Yumen Pass, the owner of the caravan built a lantern tower here. As more and more caravans passed through Yuguanmen, a frontier town gradually formed here. Later, a generation of famous generals of the Desolate Clan, Ye Wuxian, discovered the huge military strategic value of Yumen Pass, and since then there has been the first pass in the world in the mouth of the Desolate Clan, "Yuguanmen Military Fortress".

Takeshi 2010, early summer, Northwest Frontier.

The wasteland in the northwest is deserted, rare and boundless. "The desert is lonely, and the sun sets on the long river." It's a true portrayal of it.

It was dusk, the sun was setting, and the surrounding yellow sand was turned golden yellow by a round of sunset in the sky. In the haze, a caravan of dozens of people was slowly approaching from the horizon.

"Uncle, it's getting dark. Shouldn't we be ready to find a place to set up camp and make a fire to spend the evening? A young man on a camel in the caravan sped up to the leader at the front of the line.

When the caravan leader heard this, he turned his head and tore off the scarf from his face, revealing an angular face. If you just look at his not very clean face, the people who have seen it will not leave a particularly deep impression, but his dark brown eyes at this time reveal not only the insensitivity experienced by the perennial experience, but also the conceit that belongs to the veteran, which is a kind of self-confidence that can only be achieved after countless successes.

"I don't need to." The leader shook his head.

"Shall we be on our way at night?" The young man asked, surprised.

"More than ten miles to the Peace Hotel, we can get there before dark. Our caravan will rest there tonight. The leader replied hoarsely.

"Peace Hotel?" The young man's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of fear.

The Peace Hotel, named Peace, is actually one of the four most famous black shops in the Great Wilderness. Its fame is familiar even to young people who have just debuted, but it is the only place for travelers to rest on the way to the direction of Yumen Pass in the northwest region, and it is also the only hotel within a radius of 100 miles of Yumen Pass.

In the past, there were also many people who opened hotels near Yuguanmenbiansai, and then there were always various reasons, and in the end they couldn't support it, and they couldn't do it.

Of course, these are not enough to make the Peace Hotel famous and famous.

A long, long time ago, at the beginning of the establishment of the Peace Hotel, Yan Ruyu, the first owner of the Peace Hotel, declared to the outside world: No one is allowed to use force in the Peace Hotel, and those who violate the order will die!

But there is never a shortage of brave people in this world, and on the seventh day after Yan Ruyu finished speaking, someone opened a killing ring in the hotel, and that person was one of the most ferocious and famous horse bandit leaders in the Northwest Regions that year. Then, the head of the brave man was hung in front of the gates of the Peace Hotel shortly after.

Since then, there has been an iron rule in the northwest region of the Great Wilderness: no one is allowed to use force in the Peace Hotel.

It is rumored that the successive owners and current owners of the Peace Hotel have a close relationship with the high-level military department of the Yumen Pass. This also leads to the fact that even in the northwest region of the great wilderness where horse bandits are rampant, the Peace Hotel is also a rare place of peace.

But it is only that no force can be used inside the Peace Hotel, which means that the outside of the Peace Hotel is not within the scope of the Iron Rule.

As the only way to the Outlands, it is like the only source of water in the forest. Horse bandits and robbers from all walks of life ambushed the animals that came to drink like fierce beasts, and waited for the passing caravan on the periphery of the Peace Hotel. Although the army of Yumen Pass later tried to protect the caravan, there were still many plunders of the caravan.

"It's okay!" The leader saw the young man's concern and comforted him indifferently.

"I've actually walked this road a few times, but it's not that scary." The caravan leader continued.

Suddenly, the leader stretched out his hand, gently patted the young man on the shoulder a few times, and said with a doting chuckle: "Yi'er, many rumors circulating among the people are often exaggerated and cannot be trusted. You will know after a long time in business. ”

After hearing this, Liu Ziyi finally relieved himself and returned to the team.

After walking more than ten miles in the desert, the caravan finally arrived at the Peace Hotel before dark.

In front of me, a lonely huge dilapidated building stood alone in this desert land, like a child abandoned by the world. Not far from the gate stands a huge wooden flagpole, which is particularly eye-catching.

Liu Ziyi looked up, and the flag was crookedly written with four big black characters of "Peace Hotel", and he was hunting in the wind. Outside the door, a big yellow dog was lying lazily on the ground, and when he saw the caravan, he immediately got up and ran away.

"That's ugly!" Liu Ziyi couldn't help but complain secretly in his heart.

After seeing the big characters on the flagpole, Liu Ziyi suddenly felt that this Peace Hotel was not so mysterious and terrifying.

The caravan leader pushed open the wooden door to himself, and walked inside. When they saw this, they followed them in.

In front of the eye, there was a well-dressed old man sitting behind the counter, looking at this side with a smile, as if he was looking at a flock of lambs to the slaughter.

Liu Ziyi took a look at the situation in the store and found that many people were resting in the Peace Hotel. A group of people in the corner were wearing strange costumes that Liu Ziyi had never seen before, and all of them had crazy patterns tattooed on their faces.

"That should be what my mother often talks about, right?" Liu Ziyi couldn't help but look at it curiously.

After glancing at the caravan as they entered the shop, the men of the fanbang continued to gulp wine in that corner, guessing loudly.

After the caravan was seated, a young man who looked like a waiter walked up to the caravan table and politely presented the menu.

"Welcome to the shop, I hope you gentlemen have a good time in the shop."

"Ziyi, you can order food!" The caravan leader handed over the menu.

Liu Ziyi took the menu and looked at it, and was secretly surprised. This is because the menu is no different from a normal city restaurant. In this era of war and chaos, in this desert land in the northwest, it can be done to this extent, which shows that the people behind this hotel are powerful.

Liu Ziyi looked at the menu carefully and found that the prices of the dishes here were very cheap, but the coin unit was not indicated after the price. Out of cautious habit, Liu Ziyi still pointed to one of the dishes on the menu and asked, "The price of this Wensi tofu is a silver coin?" ”

The young waiter next to him politely replied, "Sir, this Wensi tofu is a gold coin!" In addition, you need to pay in advance for purchases at our store. ”

The incident was really not that simple, Liu Ziyi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said: "This ordinary Wensi tofu sells for a gold coin, and you are robbing it at all." ”

The young waiter chuckled and said, "Sir, isn't it small?" How can robbery make money quickly by opening a store, and this robbery is a crime, we are serious citizens, ordinary people, don't do that. ”

"Your price is too dark!" Liu Ziyi's face flushed.

"You get what you pay for, and there is a reason why you are expensive. Young people have just come out of society and are not very sensible. Don't be surprised when you offend. Immediately afterwards, a rough hand took the menu from Liu Ziyi's hand.

"Everyone has worked hard for so long, and it's time to have a good meal." The caravan leader smiled and looked at the menu in his hand.

"When you open a store and do business, the customer is the sky, and there is nothing to offend. However, it is not common for guests like Boss Liu to have an atmosphere. The young waiter replied without humility or arrogance.

"Oh, the little brother still remembers Liu." The caravan leader looked up at the waiter.

"Boss Liu came to the shop twice last year, and he was also at the reception."

"Haha."

"Little brother, let's have a boiled fish, braised pork ribs, braised eggplant, bacon, pine flower belly......" The caravan leader ordered dozens of dishes in one go. Liu Ziyi next to him even felt that the waiter's eyes were already glowing.

At the end, when the caravan leader handed the menu back to the young waiter, he suddenly asked, "Little brother, is Boss Yan free now?" ”

The young waiter replied knowingly: "The proprietress is accompanying a group of military masters from the Yuguanmen Military Fortress in the VIP room. If Boss Liu is in need, I can bring Boss Liu over now. ”

"Is it convenient? Will it disturb Boss Yan's distinguished guests? ”

"It's all acquaintances, it's too much to disturb, Boss Liu, please here!"

"Then it's troublesome little brother." The caravan leader stood up, his hands clenched into fists.

"Ziyi, you can also go with me to see Boss Yan. In the future, when you do business, you will inevitably have to deal with Boss Yan. The caravan leader patted Liu Ziyi, who was in a daze.

"Huh? Good! Liu Ziyi reacted, got up and tidied up his clothes, and quickly followed.
