001 Out of the Desert

Next Chapter

The endless sky, the desert that you can never leave, the most dangerous quicksand. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The grass is not growing, the strange wind is everywhere, and this is a forbidden place for birds and uninhabited martial arts.

Only a bottle of scorching sun hangs high in the sky, announcing the posture of the desert master, even if the desert is dangerous, it can be nothing compared to the scorching sun.

This is the Desert of Death, and few heroes set foot here, because when people who stand when they come in, they often have to lie down and go out.

It is not carried out lying down, but being carried out in a coffin.

Death deserts, with little water and no oases, have been here since hundreds of years ago, and will still be the case hundreds of years later.

Thirst, endless thirst, walked on the desert for three days and three nights, Wu Mochong was so thirsty at this time that he was going crazy, the soles of his feet were filled with wind and sand, stepping on the desert, as if stepping on a red-hot soldering iron, every step was extremely difficult, he felt that if he continued like this, he was about to die of thirst in the desert.

On the desert twice, he saw the oasis, but unfortunately, running over it was just an empty scene, which was a unique scene in the desert, called a mirage, and the two empty joys had already reduced his patience to the extreme.

He has been in this world for a month, and the only reliance is the secret in his mind, which is a map, which is linked to the reality scene of walking on the desert now, but it is just a miniature version, as long as he goes, the black area on the map will become the state after exploration, he has observed the map in his mind, it says Death Desert, unlock three percent, that is to say, he has walked through the desert for many days, only three percent of the entire desert, this desert map is too big.

After walking for many days, he no longer looks at the map that is linked to reality in his mind, what does it matter if he can't unlock it, anyway, he has crossed into this world, and he is about to die of thirst, this map is not as good as chicken ribs.

He walked for a long time, and saw an inn in front of him, he had lost all his confidence, and then insisted on walking, it was just an instinct, he walked over blankly, and saw a middle-aged man looking at him on the inn, however, Wu Mochong thought that he was taking care of the distance, and the experience of the first two mirages made him understand that in that kind of specious scene, the people or scenes inside were fake, non-existent, and could not be seen and touched.

"Is it a mirage again, am I going to die in the desert, oh my God, I don't know where I'm crossing, I'm going to die here. Wu Mochong was thirsty and said something that others couldn't understand.

He walked forward, looking at the dilapidated inn located halfway up the mountain more and more clearly, and the middle-aged man who was getting clearer and clearer, the middle-aged man tilted his head and stared at him with strange eyes, looking at himself in confusion. He was already fainting with thirst, and before he passed out, he heard a word, a word that reassured him:

"In Xia Yang Qiu, what are you doing?"

At this time, Wu Mochong was lying in the dilapidated inn, and Yang Qiu and a beautiful woman were watching him on the side.

They fed this Mo Sheng visitor some water, and his originally pale face finally had a trace of blood.

Yang Qiu pointed to this Mo Sheng visitor and said to the beautiful woman, "Yu'er, don't you look like it?"

The one who was called Yu'er was Yang Qiu's daughter-in-law, who stared at this Mo Sheng for a long time, and still said in disbelief: "It's very similar, it's very similar." ”

"Yes, maybe it's fate, maybe it's providence, maybe it's fate, so that I actually met my old friend this time. Yang Guy shook his head and sighed a little.

"Then what are you going to do next, stay with him, or drive him away?" Yu'er said, he and Yang Gang had already lived in seclusion here, not wanting to worry about these messy things in the martial arts.

"Let's take a step at a time, the way he is now, it's not appropriate to drive him away, if it's really an old man, I'll take care of it. People just look alike, I hope it's not after an old friend, or I'll have a headache. Yang Qiu said that, and left the room with his wife Yu'er.

Three days later, Wu Mochong woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a strange person, holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and there were crumbs of meat on the kitchen knife, looking at him with a fat face and a smile.

"What are you going to do? kill someone!" Wu Mochong jumped up from the bed, wrapped in a quilt like a little daughter-in-law who was about to be raped, his eyes widened, obviously shocked.

Whoever you leave behind, when you wake up and see a person with a knife smiling at you, will be frightened, and the timid will pee.

The man hurriedly, oh, threw the kitchen knife aside, and said with a smile: "You wake up, I am the cook of the inn, and I am called the soup dumpling." ”

"Soup dumpling cook, please don't talk to people with a kitchen knife in the future, I'm afraid. Wu Mochong said.

"Okay, may I ask who is Childe's last name and what are you doing here?" asked Tang Bao.

"What am I doing here? I don't even know where I'm from. Wu Mochong was a little depressed, he didn't even know where he was.

The soup bag touched Wu Mochong's head, and then touched his head again and said, "It's not like a fever, is it amnesia?"

"Brother Tangbao, did you save me? Thank you a lot, there will be a great reward in the future. Wu Mochong said.

"Don't mind, I didn't save you, you go to the shopkeeper, he got you back. Let me take care of you, and thank you when you wake up. Tang Bao said.

"Okay, trouble leads the way. ”

Wu Mo rushed to get up and followed the soup bag to meet the shopkeeper of the inn.

On the way, Wu Mochong closed his eyes again and pondered the map in his mind, this time he found that the map had changed, and now it was the inn map, which had been unlocked thirty percent.

The previous Death Desert map can also be viewed back, but it still shows that only three percent of it is unlocked.

It seems that a map will appear in one place, but what good is unlocking such a map?

Thirty percent of the inn map, that is to say, there are still seventy percent of the map that has not been unlocked, Wu Mo Chong looked around casually, but this inn is so big, is there any place he hasn't been to?

Not thinking about these things, Wu Mochong looked at the dilapidated inn.

Said to be an inn, in fact, in Wu Mochong looked around, where is the inn, it is simply a beggar's house, flies are flying all over the sky, the table has not been wiped for a year, the layer of soil is so bad that you can't see the original color of the table, broken bowls are thrown all over the ground, some chairs have four legs are not normal, either crippled or missing, occasionally there is a chair normal, and there is a hole in the middle of the seat.

Will anyone come to eat and stay at such an inn?

The soup bag led Wu Mochong to Yang Qiu, who sat there and looked up at Wu Mochong and asked him to sit in a chair and talk.

Wu Mochong said: "Thank you for the life-saving grace of the shopkeeper, there will be a good reward in the future." ”

"Don't worry about it in the future, if you faint for a few days, I hired a man for you in the town, grabbed medicine for you, and took care of you day and night in the soup dumplings for the past few days, which greatly affected the business of the store. Yang Qiu took out an abacus and crackled there, and then said.

"I don't have any money right now. Wu Mochong touched his pocket, only to find a pile of sand.

"Oh, it's okay if you don't have money, then work in the store to pay off your debts and be a shopkeeper. Yang Qiu said expressionlessly.

"Good. Wu Mochong, who had nowhere to go for the time being, had to agree.

Yang Qiu took out a wine jar next to him and asked Wu Mochong, "Do you drink wine or water?"

Wu Mochong smiled: "I usually like to drink two sips, what's the difference between wine and water?"

Yang Qiu said: "The more you drink the wine, the hotter it gets, and the more you drink the water, the cooler it gets." ”

After that, he poured Wu Mo full of wine, but poured water for himself.

Wu Mochong carefully looked at the shopkeeper in front of him, he was nearly middle-aged, his beard was unshaven, his face was weathered, his eyes were full of the prosperity and loneliness of life, his hair was messy but neat, he liked to lean on the windowsill the most, smiled slightly, and looked at the scorching sun outside in a daze.

Wu Mochong, who promised Yang Qiuzuo to be the shopkeeper in the shop, rolled up his sleeves and started to do a big job, began to clean the three outer floors of the inn, swept the ground over and over again, and sprinkled the water again and again, but in this endless desert of death, no one came to stay and eat.

was busy until the evening, and the soup dumplings asked Wu Mo to rush down to eat.

"Little Master Wu, come down to eat, and try my soup dumplings. Tang Bao held his chest and looked proud.

Well, that is, three dishes and one soup, the dish seems to be a common wild vegetable, with a green vegetable tofu, the soup seems to be a pot of oily, and I don't know what is in it, it tastes a bit like swill, however, Wu Mochong was extremely hungry, and he ate three bowls fiercely, and he didn't feel anything when he ate it, but he was a little sick to his stomach after eating, and he wanted to vomit but couldn't vomit that feeling.

Wu Mochong gave a thumbs up to the soup dumplings, it's so delicious, the delicious Lao Tzu doesn't want to eat it anymore, Wu Mochong said in his heart.

Wu Mochong and Tang Bao ate at one table, and the other table was Yang Qiu and Mrs. Yang.

That Mrs. Yang looks extremely beautiful, Wu Mochong in his previous life, he has seen many star beauties in that world, but there is no woman who is as gentle as jade, generous, and beautiful, ah, there are no words to describe it, and she is so beautiful that she is bubbling. After all, send people under the fence, boast a few words and don't want money, haha.

Tang Bao whispered to Wu Mochong: "That lady has some strange habits, you have to cooperate with Mrs. when you see it, otherwise Mrs. will be angry." ”

Strange fetishes? Wu Mochong didn't quite understand.

In the dead of night, it was cooler than the day, but the hot weather was coming, Wu Mochong, who couldn't sleep, began to walk out of the inn at random, he was a little hungry, went into the kitchen to find something to eat, just entered the kitchen, heard a tinkling sound in his head, he closed his eyes, searched his mind, and found that on the map about the inn in his mind, there was an arrow under a water urn in the kitchen, and a white circle of light on it.

What is this, Wu Mochong quietly moved the water urn, the water urn was very heavy, he took a lot of effort to move away, and when he moved away, he found that there was actually a hole underneath.

However, Wu Mochong didn't go down to explore when he first came to the inn, so he had to move the water urn back, found a cold steamed bun in the inn, and slowly walked back to the room while chewing.

Why does this inn have an underground passage, is it a black shop?

However, he didn't think deeply about this question, he didn't even understand what was going on with the map in his mind now, and he didn't think about so many troublesome things for the time being, survival was the top priority.

The next day, he just started to sweep the table, and saw Mrs. Yang, uh, it's not Mrs. Yang at this time, she is now dressed like a son-in-law, a handsome son-in-law, wearing a green robe, with a folding fan in her hand, and saw Wu Mochong but asked, "Hey, that shopkeeper, did you see my sister yesterday?"

"Who is your sister?" Wu Mochong asked with a glare, isn't this inn just a woman.

"Her name is Da Yu'er. Mrs. Yang said.

"See, she came to dinner with the shopkeeper yesterday. Wu Mochong replied with a whim.

"And where is your shopkeeper?" asked Mrs. Yang.

Upstairs, Wu Mochong pointed to the upstairs shopkeeper and Mrs. Yang's room.

"Yang Qiu, you come out, I want to fight you to the death, you look like this, you actually snatched my sister, how can this be reasonable, can my sister take a fancy to you? It must be that you used tricks to make my sister lose her body. Mrs. Yang kicked the door outside.

Yang Qiu walked out of the room, looked at Yu'er who was dressed as a son-in-law, smiled slightly, tilted his head and said, "What are you doing in Xia Yang?"

Mrs. Yang, who was dressed as a son-in-law, raised her eyebrows, pulled out her sword from her waist, put it across Yang Qiu's neck, and said, "I will fight you to the death, and whoever loses will leave my sister." ”

Yang Qiu said, "Who is your sister?"

"My sister is Da Yu'er, and your wife actually asked me who I am?" said Mrs. Yang.

"Since you're already my wife, why do you still want to rob it, have you asked your sister what she thinks, will she go with you?" Yang Qiu said.

"My sister's thoughts?Phew, you must have used tricks to make my sister lose her body, so that you won't leave, only if you die, my sister will go with me, go die, Yang Qiu." With that, Mrs. Yang stabbed Yang Qiu with a sword, and the two fought back and forth, Yang Qiu swooped back into the room, and Mrs. Yang also jumped in and slammed the door.

Oh, it turns out that Mrs. Yang has a habit of role-playing.

Wu Mochong looked at it for a while, and continued to lower his head to wipe the table and the chair, although there was no one, but in response to people's things, he had to do his best, which was also a style of life he had developed before, whether you said he was honest or stupid, he was such a person.

The cook is still studying some strange cooking skills in the back kitchen, because there is a lack of materials in the desert, if you want to make the food delicious, it takes a little brains, although some dishes are too dark, but Wu Mochong still closes his eyes, swallows hard, don't eat?

Those dishes are simply unsightly, people's dishes pay attention to a color, flavor and flavor, he didn't touch a single one, the dish should be colorless, smell and want to vomit, taste, forget it, this lack of salt and sugar in the place, it is good to have a food.

The most hateful thing is that this soup dumpling boasts all day long that he has an uncle named Tongjia Rice, who is an incomparably powerful chef with dazzling cooking skills.

"If I were your uncle, I would strangle you to save him from ruining his old man's reputation. Wu Mochong gritted his teeth and thought to himself.

After coming for a few days, Wu Mochong gradually became familiar with this place, this seems to be the edge of the Death Desert, the people in the inn are good, Mrs. Yang loves role-playing all day long, but Yang Qiu, who is the shopkeeper, doesn't like to talk, he doesn't lean on the window to bask in the sun all day long, and then he smiles and looks into the distance, not knowing what he is thinking.

The most annoying thing is the chef's soup dumplings, bragging endlessly, one will say that he has studied cooking skills with his uncle for a year, and the other will say that he once had been a killer, and his swordsmanship is dazzling, and he was once a famous figure at the top of the lower-level martial arts circle, and he almost entered the upper-level Jinqiu martial arts circle.

Speaking of circles, Wu Mochong didn't understand much, so he asked this cook about the martial arts circle.

"Oh, let me tell you, I think back then, I was also a well-known killer in the lower-class martial arts circle. What are you asking, what is the martial arts circle, in fact, this circle is a person's identity to put it bluntly, the lower martial arts circle is called Cao Mang martial arts, basically refers to third-rate martial arts people like us, the middle level is called Jinqiu martial arts, and the general internal strength has reached a certain level, through the trials of some courts or some sects, you can enter the middle-level martial arts circle through the trial, and the upper level is called the mythical martial arts, however, that circle is too far away, and I haven't inquired about what is going on in that circle. What are the benefits of entering the circle, let me tell you, if there are some places like ours in the lower circles, there are some places that cannot be visited, if you go, there is death and no life, those places are too terrible, only those who have reached a certain level of internal strength can go, so some people are divided into these three circles. However, after a long time, people in the middle or upper circles began to discriminate against people in the lower circles, after all, martial arts masters always like to stay with masters, which is exactly what they want. ”

"There are some places you can't go, and what places you can't go?" Wu Mochong asked.

"Well, for example, the Eight Legends of Martial Arts Forbidden Land, those forbidden areas can not be entered by anyone who wants to, even if your strength reaches that level, as long as the forbidden area is not opened, you still can't enter. Tang Bao replied.

"Let's talk about it carefully, soup dumpling chef. "Wu Mochong is very interested in understanding the composition of martial arts in this world, especially the forbidden places like these legends.

Hearing Wu Mochong's compliment, he continued to say proudly there: " The eight legends of martial arts forbidden land, in fact, I have never entered, and I have heard people say, it seems to be a ruin after a place, good is the ruins left by some ancient martial arts mythology masters in the legend, the map inside is very large, as if it is another new world, there are not only people in it, but also treasures, after entering, each with strength and chance, generally those legendary forbidden areas, as long as it is opened, people who have reached a certain level of strength will enter, after all, any thing in it, can make people go crazy. ”

Wu Mochong heard such a specious explanation of the soup dumplings, the more he felt that the martial arts in front of him couldn't see through, what are the eight legendary forbidden places, is it really so attractive?
