The convoy's destination was Liao, but they had to rest for the day at a place called Mansha City.

Replace a truck called a blackhorned rhinoceros to move on.

Because, at the junction of the Liao Kingdom and the Eastern Song Kingdom, there is a huge desert, which cannot be crossed by the foot strength of horses.

According to the captain of the timber transporter, only with the super physique of the black-horned rhinoceros and the special ability to know the way can it cross this desert.

The black-horned rhinoceros is a tamed monster in the Red Vine Desert, this monster has rough and hard skin, and the bite of ordinary mosquitoes and scorpions cannot cause damage to it.

The black horned rhinoceros has wide soles of feet and super strength in its limbs, and it walks effortlessly in soft sandy soil.

The most important point is that this demon beast has a special ability to know the way.

The black-horned rhino only needs to walk once, and the second time it goes, no matter how strong the wind and sand in the desert are, and how the sand dunes move and change, these black-horned rhinos will always reach the end.

When he was still more than a hundred miles away from Mansha City, Wei Daozhi said goodbye to Lin Yang, Wei Daozhi said that there was a small immortal cultivation sect here, and one of his best friends was in this inconspicuous small sect, and Wei Daozhi wanted to visit this friend.

Lin Yang didn't hold back after hearing this, just said a few polite words, and then handed a storage bag to Wei Daozhi.

Lin Yang opened his mouth and said: "Wei Daoyou, although you and I met in Pingshui, but it was also the same at first sight, there are a few white robes and a few bottles of standing healing pills, if you don't dislike it, accept it." ”

Wei Daozhi looked at the white robe on his body, it was indeed no longer the same.

In fact, in his storage bag, there are also some necessary things such as clothing and pills, but they have long been divided by the people of Tsing Yi Gate.

So after thanking Lin Yang again, he accepted the storage bag, and then floated away, Lin Yang looked at Wei Daozhi's figure and disappeared, slowly closed his eyes, and began to close his eyes and recuperate.

Mansha Castle is the westernmost city in the Eastern Song Kingdom, and it is not really big, but it is a little larger than the average town, and there are thousands of people living in the city.

It is located in the western part of the East Song Kingdom, the climate is arid, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and it is the only mortal city within a radius of thousands of miles.

Further west of Mansha City, there is an endless desert, this desert is called the Red Man Desert, after passing through this Red Man Desert, you will reach the realm of the Liao Kingdom.

Most of the timber needed to build houses in Mansha City was transported from the hinterland of the East Song Kingdom, which has no majestic mountains and most of it is hilly and mountainous, especially in the area of Jimu City, the capital of the East Song Country, where wood is abundant.

Dongsong Country is bordered by Liao Kingdom to the west, Citrine Kingdom to the north, and several countries such as Baibo Country and Ziwei Kingdom to the south, so it can be said that the geographical location is very superior, and a lot of processed wood is also transported to these countries.

And the safest and closest way to enter the Liao country is to start from Mansha City, cross the Red Man Desert, and then you can reach the Liao country.

Therefore, mortal caravans or monks who planned to go to the Liao Kingdom would stop at Mansha City and enter the Liao Kingdom in a vehicle called the Black Horned Rhinoceros.

Of course, there are also some monks who are not weak in their own mana and fly across the Red Man Desert on their own, and there are also those who are trapped in the Red Man Desert because they are disoriented, but most of the monks can still reach the territory of Liao smoothly.

However, this is only under normal circumstances, if you catch up with the red tide, not to mention the Qi refining period cultivators or some foundation building period cultivators, they will not dare to cross the Red Vine Desert.

What made Lin Yang depressed was that after this convoy entered Mansha City, it couldn't continue to travel, because a red tide was happening here, and it was impossible to cross the desert at all.

What is the red tide? Lin Yang inquired about it and understood, speaking of the red tide, he had to say a kind of demon beast called the red ant, this kind of demon beast grows in this red vine desert, the finger is thick, three inches long, the whole body is red, and the appearance is exactly like its name.

Every thirty or fifty years, there is an ant tide, in the red desert, there are this kind of red ants everywhere, dense and unsightly, looking like a red ocean from a distance, so the local residents call this kind of ant tide red tide.

During the Red Tide, this Red Vine Desert is full of dangers, and if you encounter a colony of red ants, both mortals and monks will be devoured by red ants, and in the end, there will be no bones left.

During several red tides, the red ants also attacked the city, devouring thousands of residents of the city, and finally dozens of monks were rushed to kill the red ants in the city, which saved the residents of the city.

Lin Yang was walking on the streets of Mansha City at the moment, and his heart was becoming more and more depressed, because he asked several caravans of the Liao Kingdom in the past, during the red tide, they did not dare to cross the Red Man Desert, and they needed to wait until the red tide was over.

The duration of the red tide is uncertain, but in most cases it lasts for a few months, but in some cases it lasts for more than a year, and the longest red tide lasts for two years.

It doesn't matter if it's normal times, it's a big deal to find a place to retreat and cultivate, and then cross the Red Vine Desert after the red tide is over.

However, Lin Yang had a thousand threads of broken meridian poison in his body at the moment, and he only had less than a year to go, so he had to rush to the Blue Cloud Sect and get the Blue Cry Fruit.

If this red tide can end in a few months, it will barely be in time in terms of time, and if this red tide lasts a little longer, I am afraid that before he reaches the Blue Cloud Sect, he will most likely die of poison.

Although the population of Mansha City is not large, there are quite a few shops in the city, and what makes Lin Yang strange is that among these shops, in addition to selling mortal items, they also sell some things used by immortal cultivators, the most common being the land map jade slip.

Lin Yang bought a land map jade slip in a shop, looking for other routes to the Liao country, the jade slip is really recorded, in addition to walking through the Mansha City and crossing the Red Man Desert, there are two routes to reach the Liao country.

The first route is to follow the edge of the Red Man Desert, go north around the Huangjing Kingdom, reach the Yanzhou border in the extreme north, and then pass through several glaciers and snow-capped mountains, you can also reach the Liao Kingdom, but even if this route flies, it will take at least a year to reach the Liao Kingdom.

The second route is to go south along the edge of the Red Man Desert, enter the territory of the Baibo Kingdom, pass through the Baibo Kingdom to Jinju, and finally pass through Jinju to reach the Ziwei Kingdom, pass through the Ziwei Kingdom to the edge of the Barbarian Domain, and travel along the edge of the Barbarian Region and the Red Mangren Desert, or you can detour back to the territory of the Liao State.

However, this route is also very dangerous, not only can you encounter a large number of poisonous insects and monsters on the way, but the most important thing is to travel through several countries, you need to fly hundreds of thousands of miles, and the time required is at least two years.

It can be said that these two routes are not feasible for Lin Yang, only the road across the Red Man Desert is the closest, and the most certain thing is to get a few black-horned rhinos, with the ability of this demon beast to know the way, it will take about two months to reach the Liao country.

However, the black-horned rhinoceros in Mansha City is all controlled by a Taoist temple of cultivating immortals, which is on the top of Fuyun Mountain fifty miles south of Mansha City, and the Taoist temple is called Qingxu Taoist Temple.

The transportation capacity from Mansha City to Liao State was all controlled by the Qingxu Taoist Temple, and the black-horned rhinoceros used by these caravans were all rented from the Qingxu Taoist Temple.

These black-horned rhinos can only be driven by humans after they have been specially domesticated, and the black-horned rhinoceros needs to be fed a special elixir to survive, which can only be refined by the Qingxu Taoist Temple.

If you want to buy a black-horned rhino, you can only find the Qingxu Taoist Temple, and now during the red tide, all the black-horned rhinoceros are raised in the spirit animal garden of the Qingxu Taoist Temple, I don't know if this Qingxu Taoist Temple is willing to sell the black-horned rhinoceros, even if it costs more spirit stones.

I also made a small fortune by robbing Baicao Pavilion, and I got thousands of spirit stones from Shopkeeper Liu at once, plus the spirit stones from selling the purple salvia, I have at least 8,000 spirit stones on my body, which is definitely not a small amount, and it should be more than enough to buy a few ordinary demon beasts.

If he got a few black-horned rhinos, even during the red tide, Lin Yang didn't care, as long as he didn't encounter an ant colony, with his magic powers, as well as Xiaoxi's earth escape technique, it shouldn't be a problem to cross this red vine desert.

Lin Yang was thinking about the black horned rhinoceros, when someone suddenly spoke: "Master Ke, this is the time for dinner, do you need to go to the small shop to eat some wine?"

Lin Yang looked for prestige, only to see a two-story wooden structure of the restaurant appear in front of him, red lacquer door, a black wooden plaque hanging on the door, the wooden plaque on the written "Mansha Restaurant" several gilt characters.

There was a middle-aged man dressed as a guy standing at the door, greeting the guests who entered the restaurant, it was now noon, the guests in the restaurant were coming in and out, and the business seemed to be very prosperous.

Lin Yang nodded slightly, followed the guy into the restaurant, sat down at an empty table in the corner of the hall, and the guy didn't have much time to bring two plates of side dishes, a bowl of beef and a pot of soju.

Lin Yang hadn't eaten mortal food for a long time since he had cultivated the Dao, and when he saw the steaming beef on the table, he really felt a little hungry, and he only heard his stomach "growling".

Lin Yang picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of beef in his mouth, I have to say that the taste of this beef is really good, and it aroused Lin Yang's appetite at once.
