The ancient road in the Western Regions, the wind and sand are pervasive, covering the sky and the sun.

A caravan of camels, loaded with loads of goods, set out for the largest oasis in the vicinity.

The leader of the caravan was a tall man with a lot of experience in business, and he knew every stop very well.

"Let's work hard, there is the Uluchol Oasis in front of you, and when you get there, you can rest for two days. ”

When the members of the caravan heard this, they immediately cheered: "The leader is wise. ”

A young man who was involved in the trade for the first time asked with a curious expression: "Chief, can you tell me about the situation in the Uluchol Oasis? ”

The caravan leader laughed and teased: "Cha Mu Tie, what your father said is right, you are really a studious child, and you will definitely become an excellent merchant in the future." ”

The young man Cha Mu Tie was a little embarrassed by what the caravan leader said, and lowered his head shyly.

Seeing this, the leader of the caravan introduced with a smile: "Cha Mu Tie, you remember, the Ulu Chole Oasis is born on the basis of Muzi Lake, and it is the largest and most prosperous oasis within a radius of hundreds of miles. ”

"The entire oasis is home to hundreds of thousands of people, rich in corn, cotton and other daily necessities, as well as jade, medicinal materials and other precious things. ”

"The caravan will stay here for a few days, and in addition to giving everyone a good rest, they will have to take the opportunity to dispose of this batch of goods, exchange them for Uluchol specialties, and then go to the next oasis to peddle them. ”

"Seeing that the green is gone, in another hour we will be at the Oasis of Uluchol. ”

An hour later, the leader of the caravan came to the vicinity of the Uluchol Oasis and found a strange thing, compared to before, there was an additional group of soldiers in black armor at the gate of the Uluchol Oasis.

Even if he just watched from a distance, the caravan leader could feel the evil aura on the black-armored soldiers.

If it weren't for supplies, the caravan leader wouldn't even want to enter the Uluchol Oasis to avoid getting into trouble.

Cha Mu Tie asked in a low voice, "Chief, the soldiers guarding the gate of the Ulu Chol Oasis all look fierce, more fierce than the wolves I killed at the coming-of-age ceremony. ”

Hearing this, the caravan leader hurriedly warned: "Shut up, these soldiers are not ordinary, they don't look like they were cultivated in the Uluchol Oasis, but they seem to have come from other places. ”

"Everyone should pay attention to the fact that the Oasis of Uluchol is very likely to be occupied by other forces, so to avoid misunderstanding, do not try to inquire about the origin of these soldiers. ”

"If the suspicion of the other party is aroused, it will be miserable to kill people and sell more goods. ”

Everyone in the caravan was so stunned when they heard this that they couldn't help but slow down their breath.

When they arrived at the gate, the caravan was unexpectedly stopped by the black-armored soldier and asked, "Where did the caravan come from? Where are you going?"

The caravan leader was at a loss when he heard this, the first two questions are easy to answer, but what is Lu Yin?

Seeing this, the captain of the black-armored soldiers said angrily: "Another one who has no road guide, Ergou, take them to the government office to guide them, and explain to them clearly, according to the latest decree issued by Lord Hou, after a month, no road guide is allowed to enter the oasis." ”

"If the road guide is not matched with people, he will not ask the reason, and he will not be forgiven, so that he can cherish his road guide. ”

The caravan people, including the leader of the caravan, were taken into the oasis by a black-armored soldier named Ergou with a bewildered expression, and as for the goods, they were temporarily detained at the door, and they would come to pick it up after the road guide was finished.

After walking for a long time in the Uluchol Oasis, the leader of the caravan almost didn't recognize it, this was the Uluchol he remembered.

The low-rise houses are gone, but a new city has sprung up.

The leader of the caravan stepped into the new city, and the clean and tidy streets, row upon row of houses, looked extremely extraordinary.

The leader of the caravan couldn't resist his curiosity, stuffed a small piece of gold into the soldier named "Ergou", and cautiously inquired: "Dare to ask this military master, the new lord of the oasis, what is the origin, why did he make up his mind to build such a city?"

Ergou took the gold, took a bite, confirmed that it was true, and said with a smile: "There is no lord of the oasis, there is only one master in the entire Western Regions, and that is the champion of my family." ”

"This city, it is said that it is also the order of his old man himself, but not only the Uluchol Oasis, other oases have also been built, and even the uninhabited desert, the champion Hou has arranged people to build the city, maybe there is something deep. ”

"Okay, the government has arrived, go in and do the road guide, remember, the road guide is the only thing that can prove your identity, in another month, if there is no road guide, you will be expelled, and you will be killed. ”

"Don't lose your guide, or you'll die in vain. ”

The leader of the caravan bowed his head and said yes again and again, and secretly wrote down these words in his heart.

A quarter of an hour later, each of the caravan handed over twenty copper plates and received a guide.

The trail shows their names, ages, family members, where they come from, and their general appearances.

In general, this is a simplified version of the ID card, and Lin Ze deliberately took it out to control the "sharp weapon" of the Western Regions.

During a certain period of time, anyone can go to the official office to apply for road guidance in order to pass through the oases in the Western Regions.

After this period of time, the government no longer accepts requests for road guides.

After that, according to Lin Ze's regulations, those who have no way to guide will not be given the opportunity to enter any oasis.

......

In the west of the Western Regions, at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, under the moisture of snow water, the oasis formed is larger and wider.

In an anonymous mansion, Lin Ze took the secret letter brought to him by the secret agent, and browsed it, the world has not changed yet, everything is normal.

Three months ago, Lin Ze left Chang'an with a group of people, and only the countless hidden nails he had buried over the years were left in Chang'an.

Not only Chang'an, Nanyue, Beidi, the Central Plains, the land of Qichu and even the Lishan Mausoleum, there are hidden nails left by Lin Ze, secretly providing him with a steady stream of news:

Hu Hai barely controlled the court situation, and Xiang Ji Liu Ji was still hiding in the deep mountains and old forests, and he was nowhere to be seen.

However, Buddhism and Confucianism have not been idle during this time, and they have sent many disciples to publicize and secretly build momentum in the places under their jurisdiction.

The atmosphere is getting more and more tense, a bit like a prologue before the big change.

There is only the door, which is silent.

Forget about the Dao Palace, it has always been transcendent, and it is reasonable not to participate in the affairs of Hongchen, and it is reasonable to say that it is not arranged.

But Biyou Palace invested so much, and there was no news, which made Lin Ze very puzzled by this. Lin Ze

Fortunately, a month ago, Lin Ze successfully completed the big layout in the Western Regions, and then immersed all his mind in cultivating martial arts.

Emperor Qin's secret treasury, the "wool" collected from various factions overseas, and the heavenly treasures sent by Confucianism and Buddhism were all consumed by Lin Ze.

At this point, Lin Ze successfully reached the peak of the Divine Soul Realm.

To be precise, Lin Ze was a little stronger than the peak of the ordinary Divine Soul Realm, because his Divine Soul was one foot and two feet tall, two feet taller than the ordinary one.

These two feet were grown by Lin Ze through the secret method of the God of War Catalog.

When Lin Ze broke through the peak of the Divine Soul Realm, his first feeling was not joy, but depression, as if there was a sky above his head, crushing himself to death.

Lin Ze tried to continue to break through, but found that this Tianque did not move at all, and it was even difficult to focus.

Sure enough, it is heaven and earth that are restricting the birth of the immortal realm of heaven and man, and if you want to break through this limitation, you can't reach it unless you are a god or a man.

It is no wonder that with the power of Emperor Qin, he will be trapped in front of him for hundreds of years.

If the world doesn't change much, Lin Ze doesn't know how many years he will waste because of this.

Thinking of this, Lin Ze rode the wind and patrolled over the Western Regions, secretly thinking: I don't know how long the big change will come?

As soon as this idea popped into Lin Ze's mind, he sensed a special frequency coming from an extremely distant distance.

A familiar majestic voice echoed repeatedly between heaven and earth: "I am ordered by heaven to live forever." ”

Emperor Qin was born!

Lin Ze's face was stunned, and his mind was in chaos.

Also, the great changes in heaven and earth have begun.

Because Lin Ze could feel that the sky above his head was gradually disappearing.
