After the two altar owners had finished speaking, it was time to set off, and the teenagers scrambled to mount their camels and set out towards their destination. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yuwen Chenyi carefully checked the packed supplies and salutes again from beginning to end, and after confirming that everything was tied correctly, he made a departure gesture to Xue Lin and Liu Dezhi, and the three of them turned over and rode on camels, followed the crowd, and began the journey through the desert.

Hundreds of teenagers riding camels into the desert is a unique scenery that immediately attracts the attention of all the merchants and explorers in the city, and has become a hot topic in this small town on the edge of the desert.

A tall and thin explorer who lived in the only inn in the city, stood at the window, looked at the teenagers who were leaving the city, and asked the innkeeper, "What are so many teenagers going into the desert to do, are they also going on expeditions like us?"

Xiao Er replied: "The guest officer doesn't know, these teenagers are not ordinary explorers, they are young rookies from the Spirit Sword Palace who participated in the entry selection, look, these children are much more energetic, they are all young heroes, if my children have half of their spirit, it would be great, they are really more popular than people." ”

Xiao Er said, shook his head a little helplessly, his face was envious and sighing, and turned to greet the other guests.

When the slender explorer heard this, the faces of several companions beside him sank, and a slightly chubby man said softly, "Senior brother, what should I do, do you want to inform the sect of this matter?"

The tall and thin man snorted and said, "This matter will never be as simple as it seems, let's set off the day after tomorrow and follow it all the way to see what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the Spirit Sword Palace!"

.........

The first two days of setting foot in the desert were full of excitement, because the edge of the desert was full of drought-tolerant plants such as poplar, bearded squirt, camel thorn, tribulus terrestris and pig hairweed.

In particular, the area where the sand dunes meet the river valley is densely poplar forest, tamarix shrubs, reeds, and other psammophytes, forming a beautiful "green corridor", which is connected by babbling water and oases.

These teenagers entered the desert for the first time in their lives, and they thought it was both fresh and fun, and they rode camels for a while, and they chased after the hares, birds and other animals that lived in the forest.

There was laughter everywhere, and there was no fear at the beginning.

Xue Lin and Liu Dezhi were no exception, riding camels to compete with other teenagers, at this time, the advantages of wild camels were reflected, when running, the steps were firm and brisk, swaggering, and soon those tall domestic camels were far behind.

Xue Liu and the others danced happily and shouted happily, some teenagers were even more stunned by the excellent performance of the two camels, and whistled in admiration, while Qin Yi and his group looked pale, and their eyes were about to erupt with fire.

Seeing this, the corners of Yuwen Chenyi's mouth lightly flashed a smile, he was familiar with the desert terrain, and knew that the distance he had traveled in the past two days was not a real desert at all, just the sand and Gobi desert formed after some ancient river channels dried up.

He raised his head and looked intently at the Gobi Desert behind the oasis in the distance, and knew very well in his heart that at the end of this Gobi Desert, there was the scorching sun of yellow sand, the vast desert of quicksand, and the arduous journey would start from this green corridor.

Cautious character, he took out the map and Sinan from his arms, and reconfirmed the current position of the team, the situation was as he expected, the current location of everyone was an ancient river channel.

Thousands of years ago, this ancient river channel was a large and spacious river, which supported countless ancestors and gave birth to some brilliant civilizations on both sides of the river, and then these civilizations disappeared because the river dried up.

In the rolling yellow sand, many ancient cities were flooded, and the Holy Sepulchre Mountain, marked on the map, was the source of this great river, and there was once a powerful tribe in this place.

Legend has it that this tribe, brave and good at fighting, martial arts respect, the clan are all samurai with super martial arts, there has been a character in the tribe who shook the ancient and the present, the martial arts are incomparable, spanning Kunlun for decades, without a defeat, is respected as the "martial saint", the holy tomb mountain is where his mausoleum is located.

When Yuwen Chenyi and a group of teenagers listened to Gao Yang talk about this place on the spaceship, his heart was filled with extreme curiosity and envy, and he couldn't imagine what kind of level a person's martial arts had to be cultivated to be called a martial saint.

I can't understand why I have to choose to go to such a place to test a person's tenacity and not be afraid of hardships and hardships.

Could it be that he wants to cultivate the martial heart of his disciples by looking at the relics of the martial arts powerhouses? If this is the case, why not look at the demeanor and deeds of the predecessors in the sect, which is direct and convenient, and can also cultivate cohesion.

He was a little inexplicably resistant to this introductory experiment, but he was full of curiosity about the magical Holy Sepulchre Mountain, and with a heart full of contradictions, he looked around again, and finally made a decision - to camp here.

He did this for three purposes: one was to rest for one night to replenish his strength before entering the desert, the second was to replenish the pure water consumed in the oasis for the past two days, and the third was to take advantage of the rest time to plan the route of his travel.

After making a plan, he immediately called Xue Lin and Liu Dezhi over, and told the two of them their thoughts, Xue Liu and the others were already very convinced of him because of the excellent performance of the wild camel just now, and said in unison that everything would obey his arrangements and commands.

Yuwen Chenyi nodded, led the two of them to tie the three camels to the poplar tree, took off the tents and belongings used for camping, and set up camp on the bank of the water source in the oasis.

The camp is located on the outskirts of the oasis, a sandy hill, about a hundred meters away from the water source, with a few large poplar trees and some low shrubs growing sparsely next to it, and the view from above can overlook the entire green corridor.

In particular, the water source below can be seen clearly, it is a pool of water tens of meters square, and the spring water trickles out, forming a meandering stream, the water is gurgling and crystal clear.

Xue Lin followed his gaze and glanced at the waterhole below, only to see that the waterhole was surrounded by lush trees, and there were some unknown wildflowers and reeds dotted among them, the scenery was very beautiful, and asked a little puzzled: "Why don't we live by the waterhole, the scenery there is so good." ”

As he was talking, Qin Yi and his group had already led the camels to set up a position in the woods by the waterhole and began to set up a camp, Xue Lin saw this, beat his chest and said, "Look, such a good place is occupied by the group surnamed Qin." ”

Yuwen Chenyi had already seen it in his eyes, and a smile was slightly raised at the corner of his lips: "Although the scenery there is good, it is not suitable for camping." ”
