2000 Years of Eternal Life

Chapter 59 The Sand in the Desert Is Deep

Before leaving the nineteen prefectures of the Central Plains and going to the northern Xinjiang desert, Du Heng had done a certain degree of investigation on this extremely vast desert.

However, due to limited sources of information, he can naturally obtain not much information about the desert.

Before that, I only knew some general information.

Now, as he flipped through the two booklets he got from Liu Sanniang, a lot of information about the northern Xinjiang desert was clearly presented in front of him.

The so-called "Great Desert" is actually just the Central Plains country's collective name for some areas in Northern Xinjiang, and it is used to refer to areas that are different from the Northern Xinjiang Grasslands, Northern Xinjiang Ice Fields, and Northern Xinjiang Snow Mountains.

Its scope is also the largest in the regional concept of "Northern Xinjiang".

From the west of Hezhou to the west of Liangzhou, there are vast deserts and Gobi in the north, but some are directly bordering, and some still have a certain area of ​​transition.

These Gobi deserts are the "Northern Xinjiang Desert" in the usual sense.

It is said that this desert has been formed as early as the Dagan Dynasty, which is considered to be the age of mythology. There are many anomalies in it. Even the laws of heaven and earth are very different from normal places, and there are many strange places.

It is said that this is because during the Dagan period, several supreme beings at the level of gods and demons fell here.

This not only left only the vast desert and the next door on this land, but also affected the laws of heaven and earth here, even if tens of thousands of years passed, they could not return to a normal state.

Now, based on the areas covered by different laws of heaven and earth, combined with many oases, dark rivers and other places, this vast and endless desert is divided into more than ten places.

Those with relatively large strength and scope include "Desert Desert", "Bone Desert", "Ghost Sea", etc., all of which are large deserts stretching tens of thousands of miles, with many strong people.

Many of the top forces in the Northern Xinjiang Desert fled into it during the changes of dynasties.Therefore, many forces in this desert still inherit the magical skills and magic weapons of the ancient times, and their strength is unfathomable.

However, these big forces are all in the core area of ​​the desert, and they rarely come into contact with people from the nineteen prefectures of the Central Plains. The group of barbarians who are most familiar to the people of the Central Plains are not the aborigines of the Northern Xinjiang Desert.

After all, according to the legend, the aborigines who lived in this area during the Dagan era had long been wiped out because of the war between gods and demons.

The barbarians mentioned in the Central Plains are actually a collective term for the aborigines living on the grasslands and ice sheets of northern Xinjiang.

Their appearance is very different from that of the Central Plains people.

Legend has it that it is because of the blood of gods and demons in the body, which produces a specific physical appearance, and then different tribes are separated according to different blood sources, scattered on the vast grasslands and ice fields in northern Xinjiang.

However, since most of the grasslands and ice fields do not directly border the Central Plains, the barbarians must first pass through the desert when going south, and over time, many tribes chose to settle in the desert.

In this way, today's desert barbarians and grassland barbarians were formed.

As for the barbarians of the ice field, it was because they were beaten up by Chen De's army in the New Year's Eve, and they were much farther away from the middle land than the grasslands, so they hadn't gone south for a long time.

It is said that he has diverted to the west to attack the countries of the Western Regions, and even further afield.

However, the pamphlet stated that the leader of the Golden Tent of the Eagle King, who may unify the grassland and desert barbarians in the near future, is a barbarian from the ice field, and may have the support of the Nether Vast Sea, which is extremely powerful.

"It turns out that the Eagle King Golden Tent is not considered a top power in this desert." Du Heng was a little surprised.

Originally, he thought that the barbarians who unified the desert and the grassland with the Golden Tent of the Eagle King must have been the most powerful force in the desert, but now it seems that even if they are not young people, they are definitely not a particularly powerful force.

It may even be just a pawn used by some top desert forces to test the strength of the Central Plains.

"The water in this desert is very deep, no, it should be said that the sand is very deep." Du Heng continued to look at the booklet in his hand, and secretly said, "According to the above description, the overall territory of the desert is probably larger than the combined nineteen states of the Central Plains." so big.

"If the legend is true, and this desert was really created by the fall of gods and demons, then how strong will the existence of gods and demons in the Dagan period be, the peak of the gods, or the existence above the gods?"

This made him deeply feel that this world is far more dangerous than he thought.

Originally, he thought that after all the five internal organs temples were built and the five elements gods were raised, he would be able to sit back and relax.

After all, at that time, the Shenmen class was definitely no longer his opponent.

Now it seems that I am afraid it is not so simple.

"There are many secrets and unknowns in this world. Should I keep a low profile or keep a low profile? On the surface, I will maintain the marrow refining state first, and then 'break through' to the profound entrance state normally after a while."

Du Heng made up his mind, and secretly said: "If you have [-]%, show [-]%, this is the safest way, and you can avoid putting yourself in danger.

"I am immortal, and I have the "Tao Sutra" in my body. As long as I practice step by step, I can continuously condense new Tao seeds, and I will be invincible sooner or later.

"What I want to do now is to build the earth temple as soon as possible and raise my strength to the level of the god gate as soon as possible. In this way, I can collect the love of earth and water together while building the next temple.

"These two booklets describe some wonders of the desert, the ruins of the shrine, the Sunset Sands Bay, the whirlpool in the desert, and the hurricane sand forest... but they are all just descriptions of the scene without a clear location. Is this paid content?"

Thinking of this, he looked up at the counter, and met Liu Sanniang's gaze.

Liu Sanniang didn't avoid Du Heng's gaze, but blinked her eyes charmingly, her bright red lips were slightly raised, revealing a very seductive smile.

boom!
Du Heng closed the booklet in his hand. According to his memory, after reading one side, he memorized all the contents in it, and then walked to the counter again.

"Miss Boss, three questions."

"Okay." Liu Sanniang nodded softly, glanced at everyone present, and then said to Du Heng with a smile, "Little Taoist priest, this paid content can't be in the lobby, come with my sister. "

As she said that, she walked out of the counter with a swaying exquisite figure, her lotus steps moved lightly, her clothes fluttered, she walked up the stairs with a burst of fragrant wind, and walked to the upstairs room.

Du Heng also followed.

Now only the group of big men were left in the lobby, someone stared blankly at the direction of the stairs, and murmured, "I really want Sanniang to guess my face with her feet."

puff!
The people around couldn't hold back and sprayed the wine out of their mouths.

Then he laughed out loud.

"Fucking step on your face, Sanniang can kick your dog's head off with one kick!"

"Do you think Sanniang can't hear you? When Sanniang comes down, you'll be fucked, hahaha!"

The air was suddenly filled with joy.

He Qing sat with his "workmates", looked at the direction of the stairs with some concern, and asked in a low voice to a middle-aged man beside him: "Boss, brother Xujing is okay."

"What do you mean?" The bow of the boat was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his 40s, with dark skin and a short build, but he was very strong.

"The proprietress is in her thirties. I heard that women look like wolves at thirty and at forty..." Before He Qing could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a blow on the head from the bow of the ship.

"Don't think about these messy things." The bow lowered his voice, "I see, this Taoist leader Xu Jing should also be interested in that ancient ruins, wanting... eh? Something is wrong!"

"What's wrong?" He Qing hurriedly asked.

"It's okay, it has nothing to do with Master Xujing." The bow moved its ears, pointed to the outside of the inn, and said to He Qing and the people around him, "Stay by my side later, don't run around. There are a group of The murderer is coming, and he is still chasing and killing a girl."

"Is it a horse bandit?!" He Qing's eyes were filled with hatred.

"No, it's probably a Central Plains martial arts master who explored the ruins." The bow said in a deep voice, "Let's just wait and see what happens. Even if there is a problem, the proprietress here will deal with it."

……

At this time, Du Heng and Liu Sanniang, who had already arrived in the room on the second floor, also noticed the movement outside.

Five men are chasing a girl.

That girl's lightness kung fu is quite subtle, and the five people behind her are obviously better at martial arts than hers, but they still can't catch up.

And the direction of her escape is the Jiangmen Inn here.

The route is impartial, and it is obvious that the target has been identified long ago.

Du Heng looked out the window, and asked Liu Sanniang with a smile: "Madam Boss, this inn also provides protection services?"

Liu Sanniang brushed the broken hair on her forehead, and said with a smile: "As long as I can afford the money, I will even protect the people who are about to be killed by the Shenmen. Why did the little Taoist priest take a fancy to that girl outside?"

"I'm here to ask for news, not to help you meddle in your own business." Du Heng shook his head, he didn't intend to meddle in such affairs that had nothing to do with him, "I want the detailed locations of the ruins of the Jingu Palace and Sunset Sands Bay. "

"Okay." Liu Sanniang nodded with a smile, and then stretched her hands into her towering arms.

She groped inside for a while, took out a jade tablet that looked very worn out, and handed it to Du Heng, "The ruins of the shrine do not have an exact location, you can see it if you take this jade tablet and walk towards the sunrise for three days." Entrance.

"As for Sunset Sands Bay, it's just..."

boom!
At this moment, the sound of the door being smashed came from downstairs, interrupting Liu Sanniang's words.

Immediately afterwards, there was a noisy and chaotic sound, which should be the sound of tables and chairs being smashed, mixed with the shouting and cursing of a group of big men downstairs.

However, these shouts were quickly suppressed by a vicious voice.

"Those who don't want to die, stand still and don't move!!" The voice was full of momentum.

Then he seemed to be sternly asking another person, "Little girl, I chased you here from Sunset Sands Bay, and I finally caught you. Quickly tell me, where is Jiang Huaixi, that dead girl!"

As soon as the words fell, Liu Sanniang in the upstairs room changed her face, and her originally charming and dynamic expression suddenly became extremely gloomy.

She turned her head to look at Du Heng again, but saw that the little Taoist priest had long since disappeared.

"This gang of idiots, I haven't made any money from Jinsha Sunset Bay news!
"500 taels of silver!"
