"Little Er, serve the wine!"

As soon as he entered the inn, there was a commotion, and there were Jianghu guests with swords and swords clamoring for Xiao Er to drink.

The shopkeeper was busy with his feet not touching the ground, and walked between the tables like a butterfly wearing flowers, delivering wine, food, and meat.

When he finally got free, he saw Gu Changan who came in, and hurriedly came up, wiped his sweat with the sweat towel on his shoulder, and greeted: "This guest officer, are you sharpening or staying in the hotel?"

"Eat, get some food and drink...... Is there any meat?"

Gu Changan asked.

"There are wine, vegetables and meat, wine is our own old rice wine, although the taste is a little bitter, but it is quite mellow, the meat is not much, only half a chicken, a duck, and a few catties of beef. ”

"Wen two taels of wine, half a chicken, and two catties of beef, and other vegetarian dishes, you look at it. ”

Gu Changan casually threw out a piece of broken silver, about one or two halves.

When the shopkeeper saw this broken silver, his eyes suddenly lit up - with this money, he could buy half a chicken and two taels of beef, even if he added a few snacks and vegetarian dishes, there would still be a lot left.

Giving him so much is obviously a reward.

immediately put away the silver, led Gu Changan to sit at a table, and greeted warmly: "Guest officer, wait a minute, the wine and food will come soon!"

Gu Changan sat at the table, waiting, observing the others in the hall.

Except for the three local villagers who sat in the corner to eat, the rest of the tables were all Jianghu guests with swords and swords, drinking wine and eating meat one by one, chatting with their companions with loud voices.

When people talk to each other, it is nothing more than bragging, or talking about some interesting things on the rivers and lakes, Gu Changan listened to it for a while, and suddenly felt bored, so he withdrew his gaze.

At this time, the wine and food had already come up, and Gu Changan picked up the chopsticks and ate them.

I don't know how long it took, but after sitting at the middle table and finishing the meal, I finally got down to business.

"It is said that the camel road is not very stable now, so do you really want to cross it now?"

A bearded man, who looks five big and three thick, but at the moment his face is full of sorrow.

"What can I do then?"

Another tall man at the same table, who only had a horse face, took a sip of wine and said, "If you don't leave now, if you are caught up, we will be finished, then the Luo family ......"

"Be careful!"

Before he could finish speaking, he was stopped by another person at the table.

There were three of them, except for the beard and horse face, and the last one was an old man with a sharp-beaked monkey cheek.

At this time, the old man's face was gloomy, and he said: "The camel road is unstable, but it is not impossible to go, let alone ...... It's just rumors!"

"Even if it's really unstable, with the work we have, what can't we deal with?!"

As soon as he said this, the other two nodded.

That's right.

The cultivation of the three of them is not weak, Gu Changan can feel that the qi and blood on their bodies are very thick, and after looking at the information, the beard is congenital 2, the horse face is congenital 1, and the old man with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks is congenital 4-fold cultivation.

Such strength, not to mention the vertical and horizontal state, but in a county, he can be regarded as a master.

"But now that the sun is about to set, don't you really want to stay here for the night?" said Ma Yan with some concern.

"Luo ...... The opponent will chase after us at any time, we must go, we can't stay here again!" the old man said in a deep voice.

After speaking, the three of them were silent for a while.

After each of them drank the wine with their heads down, ate the food on the table, and settled the account, they took up their swords and went out.

When they were talking, Gu Changan kept pricking up his ears to listen, and after they left, Gu Changan's eyes also looked outside.

Through the door of the inn, three figures walked out of the oasis and gradually disappeared into the endless yellow sand.

Looking up, I saw that Jin Wuxi was hanging down, and the red light was sprinkled in ten thousand ways, reflecting the red color of the heaven and the earth.

Gu Changan looked at this scenery and was speechless for a while.

"Guest officer...... Your meal is ready, please use it slowly. ”

At this moment, the voice of the shopkeeper sounded in his ears.

Gu Changan came back to his senses, looked at the shopkeeper, his heart moved, and suddenly asked, "Little Er, let me ask you about something." ”

"You said, guest officer. ”

The shopkeeper wiped his face with a sweat towel, obviously without the slightest surprise - as the shopkeeper, he was often inquired about by Jianghu customers, and they were all used to it.

"I heard that your camel road is not very stable, do you know what happened to this camel road?"

"It's ......"

Hearing this, there was a trace of hesitation in the eyes of the shopkeeper, and there was a trace of undetectable fear.

Seeing this, Gu Changan immediately took out another piece of broken silver and put it on the table, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper immediately said: "Guest officer, this is not a matter of money, the reward you gave earlier is enough...... Well, if you take the money, I'll tell you about the camel road. ”

As soon as he gritted his teeth, he told what he knew.

However, it is said that their Longmen territory is the first oasis outside the Yanmen County Pass, connecting the trade routes leading to the Western Regions of the Desert.

But since last month, something strange suddenly happened to Longmen.

When many caravans and quacks entered the camel road, they could often find corpses on the desert Gobi, and these corpses were basically sitting in a circle, either sunburned to death or frozen to death.

It stands to reason that on the desert Gobi, there is a large temperature difference between the days and the day, and it is not surprising that such things occasionally occur, but this time there have been several cases one after another, and one death is a circle of people.

There were caravans, tourists, and local villagers, which caused the local people to fall into panic.

"Many people say that there are demons outside the Dragon Gate, and there are people in the rivers and lakes who don't believe in evil at the beginning, but after these people didn't come back, they basically confirmed the name of the monster. ”

In the end, the shopkeeper said that his face was unconsciously filled with sadness.

Hearing these words, Gu Changan's face showed a deep groan.

After a while, he said, "Since there are demons causing chaos, why haven't you reported it to the government or the Hanging Mirror Division?"

"It was reported, and the government also sent someone to investigate, but the people from the government didn't find out any news, and the Hanging Mirror Division also came to a principal, but he stayed on the camel road for three days and didn't investigate anything. ”

"This master doesn't believe in evil, he went in again yesterday, and he hasn't come out yet......"

Gu Changan nodded: "I know, thank you little brother." ”

As he spoke, he pushed the broken silver in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper wanted to refuse, but Gu Chang'an fell into contemplation again, hesitated slightly, or accepted it, and then left cautiously.

"The dead were all gathered in a circle, sunburned or frozen...... It seems that it was really the work of demons. ”

Gu Changan thought silently in his heart.

If that's as expected, this should be the test.

At this thought, he suddenly stood up, put down a piece of broken silver, and turned to leave.

Stepping out of the inn gate, discerning the direction, and heading out of the dragon gate.

At this time, the sunset was still struggling in the desert.

The last afterglow pulled Gu Changan's shadow out for a long time, from one end of the street to the other.

It's long, it's long......

......

......
