Chapter 338: The Quicksand Land in the Center of the Eastern Regions
Changes in the Southern Regions are secretly born, and the disciples of the Sword Pavilion are frequently in turmoil. The strong people headed by Ghost Head Tuo have not yet appeared, and only some shrimp soldiers and crab generals have been dispatched, which has disturbed the peace in the southern regions.
Coming and going, months of running. There are many people who deal with this matter, and there are many people who are not too cold and there are many people who are not cold.
The land of the Eastern Regions is desolate, compared to other regions, it seems bleak, but it is also wonderful, and there are many spiritual grasses and spiritual things. The body that Lin Xi had refined, under several fierce battles, had already been dilapidated, and it could not last for a few months.
Or looking for a way to detoxify, or looking for a way to refine the body, there is always something to do, and the Eastern Regions is the best place. And the more critical thing is that there is still a dead place in the Eastern Regions, called the Quicksand Land.
There are a lot of quicksands in the Eastern Regions, some large and some small, which have been explored by predecessors and have long been marked. Even mortals, with the help of some strange objects, can cross the river like a boat and be safe and sound.
It can be close to the center of the Eastern Regions, which should be the most important and prosperous place, just because there is such a quicksand place, Mo said that with the help of the left side door, even if the Yuanying Monk rashly stepped in, he would not be deep in the quicksand.
But whoever falls into quicksand can only enter, and there is no out. For countless years, I don't know how many dry bones have been buried in the quicksand, and I don't know how many riches and treasures have been buried deep in the ground with their owners.
It's easy to bury, but it's hard to regain. Anyone who has the idea of doing so will eventually become a ghost in this quicksand. It is rumored that there were once distracted monks who stepped into it in order to obtain a spiritual root, and some people waited for seven days and seven nights before the person returned. Since then, there have been good deeds who have waited and watched from time to time, and there has been no movement, and there are no more rumors of distracted monks on the rivers and lakes. It is like the wind blowing sand, and it is scattered to the ground.
Having said that, because of this quicksand, within a radius of 100 miles outside the quicksand, it is prosperous with the day, all kinds of buildings continue to be erected, there are families, sects or merchants, scattered people perennial coils, into a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, and then named it, called the quicksand mound.
Someone once joked that this barren land borrowed the name of quicksand land, but gave it a more domineering name than the dignified place, which made people laugh in vain. Only after this person laughed, he would never smile again in this life, and it was said that he was fed quicksand.
Just as he was talking about the rise, Xiao Er's body suddenly became agitated, his voice subconsciously became a little smaller, and he kindly reminded: "Son, girl, Rong Xiao warns again, there are three kinds of people in this quicksand mound that cannot be provoked." The first type of person is a person with big shoulders and a round waist, and is as fat as a pig. Most of these people are businessmen with abundant financial resources. As the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, and businessmen and the like are more insidious and cunning. The second type of person is plainly dressed and has all kinds of waist cards around his waist. Most of these people are members of major forces, with strong strength and cruel methods. The third type of person ......"
Sassy quicksand, slim quicksand mounds. Xiao Suo wine and meat house, the vast passers-by.
has a heart, and Leng Xiao and the two come all the way. With a short silver and little gold in his arms, he found a seemingly dilapidated shop, and sat in the corner and leaned against the window wall.
However, in such dilapidated places, most of the people who come and go are savage, shouting loudly, drinking to the fullest, and laughing to the sky. When the arm is waved, the table and chair are almost unbearable.
Xiao Er took the time to tell Leng Xiao and the others about the rumors of the quicksand mound, and from time to time mixed in two sentences of reminder advice. Only halfway through the words, the drunken strong man at the next table, Ben and his fellow female companions boasted that they were brave and brave, and when they rose, they called Xiao Er to drink again, and without waiting for Xiao Er to answer, he pinched a brute and thought that Xiao Er's clothes were not well-dressed, and swept it with a palm obliquely.
Looking around, there are four people at this table, two men and two women. The clothes are all strong, and a bit of a goshawk hit is embroidered on it. The waist card is a shield-shaped bronze, and the two words are carved: Eagle Feather.
Among the four, the most eye-catching person is the one who made the move. Although this strong man sits lazily, he is more than three inches taller than others, and if he stands upright, he is at least eight feet. The tiger's back is bear's waist, the leopard's head is ringed with eyes, the pig's nose is like elephant ears, and the palms and feet are the size of a fan. Xiao Er's body shape is just like a slender bamboo, his thighs are not as thick as a person's wrist, and his face plate is not as wide as a person's palm.
However, seeing this, there were people in the room full of drinkers who raised their eyes and laughed, and there were people who drank by themselves, and no one stopped them, only when the two dogs barked at each other, it was ridiculous to live, and they died and went to the pot.
Leng Xiao frowned slightly, in the quicksand mound, everyone took care of themselves, and their hands and feet were tied. Looking at this strong man, his face was flushed, and he didn't know whether he was drunk and faint, or he was deeply trapped in the gentle eyes of a woman.
Whatever the cause, the shot is a foregone conclusion. Not to mention that this little two party just told him a lot of quicksand mounds and quicksand lands, how can he sit idly by and ignore someone who arrogantly bullies an innocent person?
I don't know in the future, anyway, today, people's hearts will not be so weak.
Only then did he raise his hand to block it, and Leng Xiao's arm suddenly paused and took it back. raised his eyes to meet Xiao Er, smiling with a smirk.
I saw Xiao Er, who seemed to poke out two fingers at random and grabbed the flesh of the strong man's palm. Two to one harvest, like iron tongs and steel knives, cut off a piece of meat in the palm of the strong man's hand.
The strong man's eyes burst out, like bells and bowls, and the miserable howl started, and then immediately stopped, only making a slight hissing sound. Blood gushed out from the palms, like a teapot poured, flowing endlessly. The blood on his face was faded, pale as paper, and cold sweat was dripping.
Suddenly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "The villain is drunk and confused for a while, and he can't see people when he opens his eyes, and the adults will spare the lives of the small!
Xiao Er hurriedly went to help the big man, and said with an anxious smile: "Eh, how do you make this guest officer, how can you afford to call the little one!
It is also strange to say that it was as soon as the words of this little two were finished, the wound on the strong man's palm healed by itself, and no more blood flowed. Even so, the ravines on the ground have already overflowed layer after layer.
The strong man kowtowed three times in a row, paid for the wine, and left in a hurry with the three of his peers. From beginning to end, the other three people did not help each other, even if they were in solidarity, they were pale and helpless.
Seeing this, it was a presumptuous drinker, no one laughed shamefully, a noisy shop, and it was lonely for a while.
Xiao Er said while cleaning the blood and water on the ground: "Thank you for your help." ”
"How to talk about help, this hand has not yet been stretched neatly. Leng Xiao spoke, and filled a glass for Xiao Er.
Xiao Er stopped moving, not daring to share the table with Leng Xiao, don't say anything about drinking. Curled aside, and when you had finished drinking, you placed the glass in the corner of the table, not near the host's plate.
"Picking up the previous words, in the quicksand mound, there are three kinds of people who can't be provoked, and this third type of people is the miscellaneous people. The smaller the shop, the more you have to be careful. ”
When speaking, Xiao Er always grovels, flattering and flattering, leaving no dignity for himself. Their dignity does not need to be kept for themselves, others will give it to themselves.
"It seems that the person who is clumsy and slippery is the second kind of person?" Leng Xiao said.
"The quicksand mound is as powerful as a star, and there are countless sizes. Eagle Feather is also a bit of a showmanship in it. Xiao Er chuckled, put the old cloth on his shoulder, and walked away with the bucket.
Shi Lingxi's eyes were shocked before he ate a spoonful of dishes, and only then did he whisper: "This little two is so strong!"
"In the land of the tiger, how can people who can live leisurely be easy to with. ”
The laughter and conversation gradually began to be the same. After checking out and leaving, Leng Xiao and the others squeezed into the bustling crowd. On both sides of the street, there are all kinds of small stalls and shops, and there are many strange things.
People who are used to seeing it disdain to cast a glance, and those who see it for the first time can't take their eyes off it, such as Shi Lingxi. No matter how much she has experienced, she is a young woman in the end. Maybe you've seen a lot of killing, but you don't know that in addition to killing and blood, there is also a world of flowers.
You can't afford to buy valuables, but it doesn't hurt to buy some gadgets.
If it weren't for Shi Lingxi, Leng Xiao wouldn't have stopped for half a minute for this object. He sighed softly: "It's been nearly twenty years since I saw you laugh so happily last time." ”
"Master. Shi Lingxi pinched the puppet in his hand, and smiled a little on his face.
Leng Xiao blamed himself in his heart, and hurriedly stopped, no longer mentioning the matter of disturbing the scenery.
The so-called three pennies are difficult to defeat heroes, and when they get involved in the rivers and lakes, they can't do anything without money.
After listening to Xiao Er's warning, the two acted cautiously and did not commit any offense. Straight winds around a few streets and alleys, the road gradually widens, and the field of vision gradually widens. At the end, there is a notice.
Where birds can be attracted to stop and wander, there must be good food and good valleys. The things posted on this notice board are the tasks left by each family, whether it is killing people or picking grass, which is both direct and complicated. Only one thing is the same, and the money comes quickly.
The fastest way to get money is undoubtedly to kill people, and the money is in hand. In addition to the bounty, the deceased's property can also be kept for himself. It's just that there are a few people who can be openly rewarded?
The notice board is enough to compare with the size of the ordinary city wall, white paper, yellow paper, red paper, and flower paper, which are full of paste. There are even blatant rewards for the three major poison cultivators, and the bounties are all millions of spirit jade. Not to mention that there are few enemies in the three major poison cultivators, this bounty alone is not something ordinary people can afford, I don't know if it really has such a strong family foundation or is grandstanding.
Leng Xiao's gaze fell on the gathering place of the crowd, but did not approach, his gaze passed through the gap in the crowd, and he barely read a newly posted notice completely.
This should have been a place to post notices, such as the major forces recruiting disciples, or cooperating or warnings. Today, it's the taskbar. And this notice aligns the admonition with the task.
The beginning of the book: Recently, the flow rate of the sand in the quicksand has doubled, it can be discerned by the naked eye, there is blood and sand, and those who are nearly ten zhang away, the blood is empty and dies, do not approach!
At the end, another sentence was added: If there is a person who obtains blood sand, he can go to the outside of the Ghost Pupil Hall to exchange ten spirit jades.
With such wealth, ordinary people may not be able to achieve it in this life, even if they don't have much cultivation, they will go straight forward, their eyes flickering.
Bypassing the crowd, there are no sparse people. Outside the quicksand, there are already countless people. Each other, either indifferent or hostile. From time to time, he casts his eyes on the quicksand.
Leng Xiao and the others were inconspicuous and wandered around the corner. On weekdays, there are few people approaching thousands of zhang outside the quicksand, but now, ten zhang away are full of people.
There was an old man in sackcloth who was self-confident and moved half a step forward. His expression was solemn, his eyes were cautious, and he only dared to move half a step. Half a step later, the wind and waves were calm. The old man's heart was big for a while, and he was nearly half a step, but he was still unharmed.
