Since ancient times, the Western Regions Desert has been the only way for the Eastern Central Plains Dynasty and the Western countries to communicate and trade and cultural exchanges on land. Although most of this area is the Gobi Desert, which stretches for thousands of miles, with heat, dryness, and little rain all year round, and there are no people in a radius of thousands of miles, the settlements of the people who have been established along the oases formed by rivers and lakes are the grain and water supply stations and trade transit stations of the merchants who pass by in these tens of thousands of miles of desert.

Therefore, although the living environment is quite harsh, and the Central Plains Dynasty in the East and the nomadic regimes in the north and even the Western countries have been fighting for control of this trade route from time to time to war, but these oasis small states, small countries, small towns, one by one, can be regarded as relatively rich and luxurious.

It's just that the Western Regions are deserted by those rich and luxurious small states and small countries that have become small towns, and at this moment, they are still a little far away from Wang Yuelong.

The incomplete version of the treasure route map of Tianmo Island brought to Taiyuan Mansion by Ying Tianxiang started from a seaside in Yangzhou, Dongzhou, and the route meandered through Yangzhou, Fengyang Mansion in Dongzhou and Guide Mansion in Zhongzhou to Kaifeng Mansion on the south bank of the Yellow River in Zhongzhou.

The route then followed the Yellow River all the way to the upper reaches of the Yellow River, entered Yanshui at Yan'an Mansion in Xizhou, and traveled by land. Through Yan'an Mansion, Qingyang Mansion, Pingliang Mansion, Gongchang Mansion and Lintao Mansion in Xizhou, it turns northwest and enters the ancient Hexi Corridor.

The area around the ancient river west corridor was included in the administrative scope of Xizhou after the current imperial family took power. Along the western corridor of the ancient river, there are administrative institutions at the state level and county offices. The administrative unit of the guard and the sergeant of the guard is integrated with the military and the government, and the chief executive of the guard is also the military chief of the guard. And all the guards in the Hexi Corridor, known as the "Hexi Nine Guards and Twenty-seven Houses", are the throat of the Eastern Central Plains Dynasty to enter the ancient Western Regions, that is, the desert of the Western Regions today.

Since the contemporary dynasty recaptured the desert of the Western Regions a hundred years ago, it has already deployed heavy troops in the 27th Jiuwei Institute in Hexi to defend this important road for ancient soldiers. The vast majority of the hundreds of thousands of troops who recovered the desert of the Western Regions were the elite soldiers who had been trained for many years in the Jiuwei 27th Institute in Hexi.

After leaving the 27th Jiuwei Institute in Hexi, it is Hami, the first city in the East in the desert of the Western Regions. And the map map of the treasure of the Demon Island that day was missing when it was heading northwest from Hami City.

However, now, the twenty-seven Jiuwei Twenty-seven Institutes in Hexi are still thousands of miles away from Wang Yuelong and Ying Tianxiang, and it is impossible to reach them in a few months, and as for Hami City, it is even more far away, so naturally it is not what Wang Yuelong and Ying Tianxiang need to consider now. Moreover, because the treasure route map of Heavenly Demon Island does not pass through Taiyuan Mansion in Zhongzhou, Wang Ying and the others still need to go to Daning County under the jurisdiction of Pingyang Mansion on the east bank of the Yellow River, and after crossing the Yellow River and arriving at Yan'an Mansion, they can be regarded as truly returning to the route indicated by the treasure route map of Heavenly Demon Island.

Since leaving Taiyuan Mansion, Wang Yuelong and Ying Tianxiang have been out of the ground day and night, all the way to Pingyang Mansion in the southwest. In this way, it saves the trouble of the scorching sun during the summer day, and at the same time, it also avoids the mountain bandits and robbers who gather in the Wuthering Mountains and forests along the way.

It's just that after all, the sight at night is not as good as that of the day, although with Wang Yuelong and Ying Tianxiang, they will no longer be disturbed by the darkness, and Wang Yuelong's thunder god horse natural horse also ignores the darkness at all, but although the old horse of Eagle Emperor Ying Tianxiang was also a good horse back then, after all, he is now old and decrepit, and he naturally checked some when he walked at night.

Fortunately, Wang Yuelong and Ying Tianxiang were not in a hurry, they only needed to travel twenty or thirty miles at night.

On summer nights, the stars lead the way, and the insects chirp all over the forest, but it is also a good scenery. Of course, Wang Yuelong also regretted that he didn't take Huang Siyu, Li Xiaoxi, and Nalan Zixuan to the west because of this scenery. If this is the case, the night scene is accompanied by beautiful women, isn't it a beautiful thing in the world?
