Chapter 137: Northbound

On the third day, they finally walked out of the desert, and on the edge of the desert, there was a city, which looked very dilapidated, but there were not many pedestrians coming and going, as a post station, connecting people who came and went.

"Let's go to the city first, replenish the water resources a little, the remaining water resources are also a long time, and they are not suitable for drinking. ”

Although she was tired of running along the way, Bi Qingxuan was still a woman in the end, and this habit of loving cleanliness was still retained.

Chen Xiao nodded, and the three of them entered the city together.

After replenishing the water, they planned to go out through another gate, so that they could cross the city directly and walk the shortest distance.

Just after they left the city gate, they saw a few very tall demon beasts crawling on the ground in a clearing on the edge of the city, and they were carrying a pavilion on their backs, and it seemed that there should be about a dozen rooms.

At the same time, there were a few people surrounding in front of the giant beast.

Chen Xiao looked at it, and saw a person handing a few gold coins to a big man, and then walked towards the giant beast.

Chen Xiao recalled, he looked at his giant beast for a moment, and suddenly said: "This should be the Purple Imperial Beast, generally speaking, it is a kind of transportation demon beast, they can travel thousands of miles a day." Since we have a relatively close connection between the cities there, this kind of monster beast is rarely used under normal circumstances. ”

Ye Shuo looked at the demon beast and suddenly asked, "Then we can ride the demon beast?" ”

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Of course, we don't lack that little money. ”

So the three of them also went there.

As soon as he walked in front of the strong man, Chen Xiao asked, "What do you say about this itinerary?"

The strong man started Chen Xiao's outfit, thought for a while, and asked, "Where are you going?"

Chen Xiao also did not hide it at all, and said directly: "The land of death, the Qin and Han Empires." ”

When the strong man heard about this Qin and Han Empire, his face changed slightly, he frowned, and finally sighed and said, "I'm sorry, we won't go to that place." ”

Ye Shuo hurriedly stepped forward to find the strong man to theorize, "I said that you are also here to make money, since we have paid for it, then why don't you leave?"

The strong man glanced at Ye Shuo and snorted coldly, "You treat me as a fool, no matter how rich you are, you have to have a life to spend, that place is not just to go." ”

Chen Xiao looked at the strong man with a reluctant expression, but in order to save time, he pondered for a moment and took out a whole box of gold coins from the ring.

"This is 100,000 gold coins, would you like to go?"

The strong man's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again, but he didn't veto it directly, but hesitated, looking at the gold coin in a little daze.

"Why don't you think it's enough?"

Chen Xiao said softly, and then took out 50,000 gold coins from the ring.

The strong man hesitated again and again, and finally gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "I can go to this place of death, but I really don't dare to enter this Qin and Han Empire at will, because people like us who are extremely mobile there will be severely punished, if you want, we can send you to other places in the land of death, as close as possible to the Qin and Han Empire." ”

Chen Xiao looked at Bi Qingxuan and Ye Shuo, and after thinking for a while, he nodded, which was regarded as agreeing to the strong man's request.

As soon as the strong man heard Chen Xiao's promise, he immediately smiled, and immediately took the 150,000 gold coins.

Then the strong man turned his head to look to the side and shouted, "Thin monkey, come and bring these guests up." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a very thin man come over.

Then the strong man took out nearly 30,000 gold coins from the 150,000 gold coins and threw them over.

"Take them to the land of the dead. ”

The man named Thin Monkey was obviously a little stunned, but he recovered in an instant, and looked at the 30,000 gold coins thrown by the strong man, and suddenly smiled.

"Of course, please come here!"

The skinny monkey made a gesture of please.

Chen Xiao hummed and walked towards a giant beast.

Bi Qingxuan and Ye Shuo also followed closely.

Chen Xiao picked a room and went in, since there were almost no people who went to the land of death, so the three of them were in one room.

Each room is not large, only a bed, a table and a stool, but this also saves space as much as possible, so that the monster can carry more houses.

Chen Xiao sat down at the table, and he chose a side position, just in time to see the scene outside through the window.

After waiting for about half an hour, I heard a shout from outside the window.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please get ready, the journey to the Land of the Dead is about to begin, and I wish you a pleasant journey along the way. ”

As the sound slowly fell, the huge demon beast trembled suddenly, and its huge wings spread out like wings hanging from the sky, and with the flapping of its wings, countless wind and dust rolled up for a while, and at the same time, with a tremble, the demon beast also began to slowly ascend to the sky.

Chen Xiao watched the buildings on the ground getting smaller and smaller, and couldn't help but raise his eyes slightly to look at the distant sky.

"There is still one year and four months, and the three-year period is about to be reached, I don't know, goodbye Mengxi, I don't know what she will be like?"

Chen Xiao muttered in a low voice, feeling lost in his heart.

At this moment, there was a knock at the door.

"Is the guest there?"

Chen Xiao immediately heard this voice, it was the thin monkey.

"Come in!"

With permission, the skinny monkey gently pushed the door open and walked in.

He was holding a plate with some fresh fruit on it.

"You are an important guest on this trip, so we have prepared these fresh fruits for you. ”

Chen Xiao glanced slightly, pointed to the table, and said, "You put it there first, I don't have an appetite now." ”

Chen Xiao said this meaning is to be wary of this man, although on the surface there is nothing very annoying about the man, but Chen Xiao still has to be on guard, because now this man knows that he is very rich, if he has any evil thoughts, the most direct is to rely on poisoning to obtain property.

Seeing that Chen Xiao didn't eat, the man rubbed his hands awkwardly and said with a smile: "Then since the guest officer is fine, I will go out first." ”

As he spoke, he was about to leave.

"Wait a minute. ”

Chen Xiao suddenly spoke up to stop him.

The thin monkey was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Chen Xiao, and said with a slight smile: "I don't know what else the guest officer has any questions?"

Chen Xiao glanced at the sky outside the window and asked thoughtfully, "I can understand that you are unwilling to go to the land of death easily, but why are you so resistant to the Qin and Han Empires?"
