C10 Great Desert Changsha
So-called: Saibei without any vegetation, kite nest zombie. The desert was empty, the wind blew all day long.
Their destination was Liangzhou, which was the northernmost part of the city. Liangzhou was close to the desert, and there were few people around. The desert was lonely, and the river flowed into the full circle of the sun. It was truly different from the Central Plains. In this place, the difference in temperature between day and night was extremely great. People who were unaware would often freeze to death on the desert or be directly snatched away by vicious birds of prey. As for the Liangzhou, although it was also a large province with Great Tang Empire in name, its location was far away and it did not have much value, so the management of the Great Tang Empire was also very relaxed.
Because of this, there were countless horse bandits, sand bandits, robbers and so on in Liangzhou. They were usually civilians, so when they picked up their sabers, they were thieves. The lord of the Liangzhou region also turned a blind eye to that situation. After the bandits looted, they would give a portion of their property to him as "filial respect". With such benefits, why wouldn't he do it?
Of course, in the past few days, the Martial House Master had suddenly become 'upright'. At the same time, he had also warned all the sand bandits and horse bandits within the borders of the Liangzhou region to behave themselves. Otherwise, even if he had ten heads, he would still not be able to keep his life if there were any problems with the group that was transporting the Saussurea Medusa. Actually, there was no need for him to say anything. The bandits in Liangzhou were not idiots, and probably no one would be willing to face the attacks of the "Vulture Monk" and the three thousand "Flying Wolf Army". Saussurea Medusa were good things, but they could only be used when one was alive.
The White Horse City was the most remote city in the entire Liang Prefecture. Once it was out of the White Horse City, it would no longer be within the scope of influence of the Great Tang Empire. The name of this city is taken from the meaning of "White Horse in the Wild". Riding on a white horse and wielding a large blade, he repelled Fanbang one hundred and thirteen times of fierce attacks, completely changing the tradition of Fanbang looting and raiding the entire Liang Prefecture from time to time. With this stop, Fanbang submitted itself to him, and dozens of years of peaceful times had passed since then. Since Bai Zhanhou chose to meet Ho Tulu here, it also had a trace of showing off his might.
Ji Yunkong's plan was to take the opportunity to steal the Saussurea Medusa when Bai Zhanhou and Ho Tulu met here.
When Fairy Qing Yun heard his intentions, she immediately turned around and headed back. What a joke! It could be said that White Horse City was the most heavily guarded town on the entire journey there. With two 'Hundred Heroes' experts appearing together, and with countless elite soldiers, even if it was ten great experts coming, they would at least be discovered. Did Ji Yunkong really think of himself as' Martial King '?
According to Fairy Qing Yun's thoughts, if Ji Yunkong was to move, they should go to the other side of the city. With Xiaoying's help, even Ho Tulu couldn't do anything to Ji Yunkong once he escaped into the air. Or they might as well go to the capital. The law of the Great Tang states that anyone who wishes to pay tribute to an envoy from outside the city must first pay tribute, and the carriages and horses are not allowed to enter the capital. If they were to steal it here, they could temporarily avoid Ho Tulu's eyes. Facing only Bai Zhanhou alone, the chances of their success greatly increased.
However, Ji Yunkong chose the most dangerous path. If this wasn't courting death, then what was it? Inside the White Horse City, there were tens of thousands of strong soldiers, three thousand "Flying Wolf Army" kept watch over them without rest, and they also had two great experts to support them. This kind of lineup made all the Thieves in the game feel desperate.
"Are you sure you want to steal the Saussurea Medusa and not show that you want to walk around here? Then, are you sure you want to find a reason to tell Sister Duanmu that you failed and that you want to make up for the guilt and regret in your heart? Deceiving yourself? " Now, Fairy Qing Yun suspected that this was Ji Yunkong's true intention.
Ji Yunkong rolled his eyes and immediately retorted, "Shut up! I don't seem to be begging you to come, do I? If I wasn't worried about Sister Duanmu, I wouldn't even bother to bring a burden like you. "Also, only I can call you Sister Duanmu, you can't."
"Then what should I call her?" Fairy Qing Yun was infuriated by Ji Yunkong's overbearing tone.
"I don't care, I don't mind if you call her 'Aunt'."
"You …"
"Also, didn't you want to monitor me from the shadows? What are you doing walking with me? Can you have any professional qualities? Go, go, hide, it would be best if I can't see you. " Ji Yunkong waved at Fairy Qing Yun in disgust.
Fairy Qing Yun suddenly realized that staying with Ji Yunkong was definitely a mental exercise. In the Moon Palace, she was hailed as a "genius". She took others' gifts with her and acted naturally. She won the goodwill from everyone in the sect and everyone treated her with utmost respect. No one dared to be arrogant in front of her, not even the noble young masters of the palace, or the princes of ministers. All of them pretended to be courteous and courteous in order to win her favor.
Fairy Qing Yun knew that most of them were dressed like animals, but they were not as realistic as Ji Yunkong's laughing and cursing. However, looking at Ji Yunkong's' real 'face, why did she want to tear it apart so badly!
At this moment, Ji Yunkong suddenly turned around and walked onto a fork in the road.
"Where are you going?" Not going to the White Horse City? " Fairy Qing Yun asked curiously.
"Of course we have to go. However, not now, since there's still three months before they reach the White Horse City, going there earlier would only increase the possibility of someone discovering them. I'll go prepare first, do you think it's that easy to fight against the two 'Hundred Heroes'? Stupid! " Ji Yunkong said, "You can go to White Horse City to wait for me first, after all, I have to go there anyway." Then, ignoring Fairy Qing Yun, he rode off on a cloud of dust.
Fairy Qing Yun thought for a while and still followed Ji Yunkong. She was afraid that Ji Yunkong would run away or just go back. She felt that Ji Yunkong wasn't someone who couldn't do these things. However, this time, she did not follow closely behind Ji Yunkong. Instead, she fell far behind and hid herself. She also wanted to see what this man in front of her was planning to do in secret. What method would he use to complete this almost impossible task?
Far away, Ho Tulu the Vulture sat on the carriage and looked out the window at the sky. Beside him was a top quality jade box made of a hundred year cold jade. The surroundings of the jade box emitted waves of coldness, and even Ho Tulu couldn't help but circulate his martial arts to block it.
Legend has it that within the Moon Palace, there is a white jade bed that is as tall as two people. It is also made from 100 year old cold jade. Now that it was just a small piece of cold jade, Ho Tulu could feel that his inner force had increased over time. It seemed that the rumors were indeed not groundless.
However, although a hundred year old cold jade is valuable, compared to the items in the box, it is nothing. The Saussurea Medusa s were in the box! Only a heavenly material like this would have the right to enjoy a hundred year old cold jade box. In order to prevent the Saussurea Medusa from being stolen, Ho Tulu had kept it by his side the entire time. Of course, on the outside, there was an incomparably precious golden box as a cover, to divert others' attention.
"It seems that this trip will not be so peaceful. We will arrive at the White Horse City in three months. When we reach there, the true battle will begin. " Ho Tulu sneered and closed the curtain again. The entire carriage seemed airtight.
