white jade in pairs

Chapter 41

The desert is lonely, and the sky is full of wild sand.

The sea of ​​fine yellow sand seems endless.Sand dunes dissipate in one place and gather in another. The terrain of the entire desert is treacherous, making it difficult to navigate and easy to get trapped in it.

A group of merchants led a long line of trucks, and they were resting behind a sand dune at this time. Others in the line only said that they were resting normally, but only a few core personnel only said that they were actually trapped in this place. In the desert.Uli, the team leader, was anxious at this moment, but he couldn't show it on his face.He summoned the guides and caravan bosses again to analyze the terrain and the route of travel.

A few people were anxiously thinking about countermeasures, but unexpectedly, the sky, which had not been clouded just now, was suddenly covered with dark clouds.Several local guides who were discussing the route suddenly became flustered and shouted, "The god of the desert is angry, angry! There is a sandstorm coming, hurry up, go away." Running in a certain direction.

Hearing this, the entire caravan immediately went into a commotion, and the rest of the people also dropped their goods, snatched the camel beast nearby, and fled in the direction the guides left.However, there were a few people who were greedy for treasures. Seeing that the masters had run away, they opened the cargo box and took a few handfuls of pearls in their bosoms.After he succeeded, he was ecstatic, and then he took out the khaki ring, carefully placed it on the top of his head, and followed the direction where everyone left from a distance.

The sandstorm lasted for three days before it finally passed. There were less than 30 people left in the caravan of [-] people, and almost all the goods were lost.The two pregnant middle-aged men in the lead looked like mourners, and Uli was also very frustrated, "Boss Zhang, Boss Li, the delivery time is not good this time, the guide has indeed said it before, but you are determined to leave, and now it's out." In such a situation, I think you should give up the goods and try your best to find a way out!"

The guide Hazi also came over, "We can't go the same way!" The other two guides also nodded and added, "There is a curse from the devil on that road, we need to find the way and return."

Zhang Tu and Li Mang looked at each other, and in the end Li Mang smiled flatteringly and said, "The goods are not important, life is the most important thing, but we must reach the Canglan Sea if we want to catch up with the next season's cloth goods. Otherwise, the whole family will not be able to live." Speaking of this, there seemed to be tears in his eyes that were about to accumulate.

"Several warriors have shuttled in this desert all year round. They are familiar with the temper of the desert god. They will definitely take us to the sea of ​​waves." Zhang Tu rubbed his hands, but flattered aggrievedly with his oily face. Accepted, if you are willing to continue to escort the two of us, the commission can be doubled!"

Money touches people's hearts, and several guides and team leaders seem to be a little moved. They exchanged glances silently, and formed a small circle to discuss for a while. After a while, Uli came out, "Generous guests, we are willing to continue to escort you , to find Canglanhai for you, but Canglanhai is a gift from God, the pearl of the desert, and it is not easy to find. Because of your generosity, we are willing to take you to try to find it, but if you can’t find it within five days, We have to return, and you have to do what you say, and the commission will be doubled!"

"That's natural, that's natural." Zhang and Li smiled gratefully.

Then the group regrouped and headed deep into the desert with what little dry food and water they had left.

After another four days, the team of more than 30 people was already very exhausted. They were running out of water and dry food. If they still couldn't find Canglanhai, they would all die in this desert.

But maybe the sky finally took care of these poor people, and they turned over a sand dune, and the depths of the sand became wet. Looking far away, you can see a blue sea in the distance.In fact, it is called the sea, but it is just a huge lake. Around the lake, there are several oases of different sizes, in which many tribes gather and live.They grow fruits, vegetables, spices, raise aquatic products, live happily and have a unique civilization.

……

On the sand dunes, Uli knelt down on his knees, thanking the god of the desert for his protection, and several other guides also showed joy.However, behind them, Zhang Tu and Li Mang showed fierce eyes, and at the same time they gave a few of their subordinates a look. At that time, only a dozen or so local hired people spattered blood on the spot, and the team shrank again. There are ten people in total.

"Finally found it! Boss, shall we investigate the situation now?" said a thug.

"Well, let's go! Go and have a look. If we find it, we will mark it and go back to report immediately." Li Mang said happily, as if the reward of the sect was right in front of him.

A group of people rushed down the sand dunes at a very high speed, but they did not see the shadow of the Canglanhai for a long time. The sun was about to set, and the Canglanhai disappeared. They were still facing the endless desert and the yellow sand everywhere.The group was a little frustrated and began to regret killing those guides too early.

The white moon was rising in the west, very bright, and the desert was even quieter at night. Several people gathered around the bonfire in silence, meditating on a hillside.It seems that they are all monks, but their cultivation base is not very high.

The slight evening wind suddenly brought the faint sound of the flute in the distance, mixed with the clear echo of the guqin, which was indistinct but lingering for a long time.The silent people immediately looked at each other, sorted out their belongings, led the camel beast, and headed towards the place where the sound came from. They were going to seek help from others again. I hope this time they will have better luck, and they can find the real Cang. Lan Hai!

After walking for a quarter of an hour, they found the source of the sound channel.

On the top of a large sand dune shrouded in the moonlight, a man in a white gauze was made with one knee bent. The man's clothes reflected fine fluorescent lights under the moonlight, like sparkling water waves, and his hair was soft and softly touched by the night light. The wind was blowing, and a guqin was resting on her knees, Ruyu's slender fingers stroked the strings rhythmically, just looking at the shape, it was very moving.Not far behind him, there is a tall man in black, like a deep valley like a mountain, playing a melodious flute. Although his demeanor is leisurely, even if he is far away, he can feel the strong aura of that man field.

A few people instinctively felt that these two people might not be ordinary people, they seemed to be very difficult to mess with, and were hesitating whether to go forward, but the two who played together under the moon seemed to have spotted them, stopped playing, and looked over at them.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Mang made a decisive decision and led his subordinates towards the sand dunes. When he got close to him, his face was full of vicissitudes and frustration. Under this sand dune, the bonfire was brightly lit, and a caravan of more than [-] people was repairing, including many Jindan Foundation Establishment monks.

"You two..." Li Mang changed his words in time when he noticed the two people's Golden Core Stage cultivation, "Senior, we are merchants of the Hengyuan Chamber of Commerce. We lost our way in the desert and lost all our goods. I don't know if we can do that." Show us a clear way to save us?" After speaking, he looked at the two with hope.

"Well...Chengbi, these people are lost," Bai Yuetang asked softly to the tall man in black behind him in a cold voice, "They seem to be very pitiful, why don't we..."

Li Mang immediately determined that this beauty in white should have a high status, she just came out to play, she doesn't have much experience in the world, and she has a middle-stage Golden Core cultivation base.

"We are not the head of the caravan, and we don't know the way. If you want to ask for help, go find the man in the brown shirt yourself. He is the leader of the caravan." The man in black spoke in a cold and distant voice, as if It took patience to talk to them so many things.

After finishing speaking, he ignored them, picked up the man in white from the sand, swept the sand off his clothes, helped him put on a white fox fur cloak, and escorted him to the caravan under the dunes. .

After the two left, Zhang Tu's small eyes turned straight, "Tsk tsk, I didn't expect there to be a young master who came to play in this poor country!" Then he showed a wretched smile, "Those two people have advanced cultivation, and they are still a pair of rabbits and sons!" , I think there will be no problem."

"It's just that the leader of the team seems to have the cultivation base of Jindan's late stage, and he has rich experience, I'm afraid it's not easy to fool!" Li Mang still hesitated.

"We have no choice, boss." A tall and thin subordinate came forward and said, "In two days' time it will be the night of the full moon. If we can't find Canglanhai, we will have to wait another five years! The key to this key There is not much energy, and I am afraid that it will be reduced to scrap iron in a year."

"Let's go, meet them!" Li Mang made a decision and led the team to communicate with the man in brown.

Unexpectedly, the team leader, who seemed to have a deep city, easily agreed to take them for a ride, because it was very close to Canglanhai, and they could arrive at noon tomorrow.

This made Li Zhang and his party very happy, and they thanked Dade immediately.What they didn't notice was that the beauty in white, who was considered weak and deceitful before, looked at them from the window of a carriage, with sharp eyes, completely different from the gentle and soft, very delicate look just now.

Yu Chengbi helped him pull down the curtains, "They have the key to the seventh god's tomb, let's follow and see what they want to do."

There are three crystal fragments suspended in Bai Yuetang's hand, which can faintly be assembled into a certain shape, attracting and connecting with each other, but it seems that many fragments are missing, "That's right, the crystal has induction, the Seventh God's Tomb." After a moment of thought, "They are looking for Cang Lan Hai, but is the Seventh God’s Tomb really there? This time someone released the news that there will be a secret place in Cang Lan Hai, and wizards from nearby tribes and monks from some sects flocked here, which always makes people feel uneasy.”

"In this team alone, there are no less than a dozen forces, and the one with the highest cultivation is already at the late stage of Golden Core. We are not conspicuous in the middle, just focus on the team just now. There are only ten keys. Follow them and we At least you can enter the tomb first." Yu Chengbi looked at the crystal and said.

After the two made up their minds, they meditated and rested separately, without talking for a whole night.

Early the next morning, the entire caravan gradually woke up.I don't know if all the forces are in a very anxious mood, and even the real merchants are a little bit infected, urging the buddies, and soon everyone packed up and headed for the Canglanhai.

At noon, the scorching sun was in the sky.However, there was still wild sand all around, and the steaming water vapor distorted the sight, and many scenery became unreal.

"It was agreed that we could arrive at noon, why can't we see it now? Are we taking the right route?"

"Yeah, what's going on, it's so hot, today's weather is very unusual!"

"Boss, we..."

Everyone was full of doubts, but Qu Zhenren, the leader of the team, didn't care. If someone asked him, he would point to a place not far away, and replied, "It's right there, what's the hurry!"
