Zhao Feng was a little worried, but he had no choice. This area of the Tang Dynasty had a special power that severely limited his abilities.
Zhao Feng and others waited until the wind and sand completely dissipated before moving forward. Only then did Sun Guangcai and others realize that the flame monster was Zhao Feng's helper.
Sun Guangcai remembered something and came to Zhao Feng's side: "Boss, this flame man seems to have been born from the miracle building in Jingzhou City?"
"Brother Sun, you have a good memory! Tell me, don't be careless. This place is very evil. The further you go, the more dangerous it will be. It's okay, so don't leave the team!"
As we walked closer to noon, the oasis that Sun Guangcai and others mentioned was already visible. We only needed to continue climbing over a high slope to reach the oasis.
In the oasis, there is a large number of cavalry stationed, and the camps are almost spread throughout the oasis. A small caravan stops on the east side of the oasis. Other than that, there are no other people around the oasis.
"Brother Sun, have you ever dealt with these people?"
Sun Guangcai shook his head: "No, we had a fight with them when there were many of us. We didn't suffer any loss, and they didn't take advantage either!"
Zhao Feng thought for a while and asked Sun Guangcai and others to stop temporarily.
"Tian Xie, go and inquire and see what's going on inside this tribe!"
"As you command, my lord!"
Huoling Tianxie went away for an hour and brought back good news and bad news: "Lord, there is water nearby, which is enough for us to use for a long time. In addition, there is an area infested by wild beasts in the north, which can ensure the source of food."
Zhao Feng frowned slightly, what Huo Ling Tianxie said was good news, so the next step should be bad news.
"Is there a problem with the camp ahead?"
"Yes, my lord, there are many outsiders imprisoned in this camp, and it is filled with demonic aura. It seems that the tribe here has colluded with the demon clan!"
Zhao Feng thought for a while and said: "Let's live nearby now and look for opportunities to slowly repair these bastards!"
In fact, Zhao Feng was confident that he could destroy this tribe in a short time, but he still didn't know the strength of the demon clan, so he didn't want to act rashly.
Zhao Feng found a place with solid ground to set up camp. Before the camp was ready, Feng Yin came back.
"Zhao Feng, there is a stone forest five miles away from the oasis. There is a crack in the center of the stone forest, leading to the depths of the underground. The demon tribe's lair is there. If we attack it by force, we will probably suffer a loss!"
Zhao Feng smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter, the monster tribe has a large number of people, and we are strong enough. As long as we wait until the day of the waning moon and arrange the monster tavern, we will destroy these monsters one by one!"
Zhao Feng's thought was a bit simple. For some reason, Feng Yin did not explain it clearly. The number of monsters around here was not generally large.
However, the overall strength of this group of monsters is not weak, but fighting alone is no match for Zhao Feng. Therefore, although the monsters realized that Zhao Feng and others were coming with bad intentions, they did not attack them.
Huo Ling Tianxie spent three days thoroughly surveying the area within a thousand miles around the oasis. The monsters here seemed to be the lairs of all the monsters in the surrounding area.
That night, the cold wind blew up and the water dripped into ice, which meant that the desert winter had arrived early.
"Great!" Zhao Feng clapped his thigh happily. The sudden change in the weather meant that the day of the waning moon was coming.
In the middle of the night, the cold wind finally stopped, and the time of the waning moon finally came. The monster tavern was built. Zhao Feng and others could finally move into the tavern, no longer needing to sleep in the open air.
In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Zhao Feng asked Huoling Tianxie to obtain a large number of stones from the stone forest where the monster's lair was located, and built a stone wall one foot high along the perimeter of the monster tavern.
Winter is coming. In the past few days, the oasis leading to Tubo and the trade route in the direction of Datang have become busy.
The Tubo side needs to buy a large amount of supplies, and it must be completed before the heavy snow closes the mountains.
Therefore, just a few days after the Monster Tavern opened, a Tibetan caravan was welcomed.
This Tibetan caravan, including the guide, were all dressed as Tang people. Only when they spoke could one tell that they were not from the Tang Dynasty.
"Everyone, do you want to drink and eat, or stay in a hotel?" A young man named Wang Tao acted as the waiter of the Monster Tavern, responsible for welcoming and delivering guests.
"Bring us each a pot of wine and two pounds of barbecue per person!" The guide spoke fluent Tang Dynasty Mandarin. Judging from his appearance, this person should be from the Tang Dynasty.
"Everyone, wait a moment, the meat and wine will be here soon!"
Wang Tao imitated the look in the TV series, pulling his neck and shouting: "Twelve pots of fine wine, twenty-four pounds of barbecue!"
This guy stretched out his voice and shouted very tastefully, but Zhao Feng almost burst into laughter. This kind of practice has not been done in this era, but this is a desert. On weekdays, these boys have no other pastime except practicing martial arts.
Everyone was already panicking.
Soon, the other four people brought large plates of barbecue, water and wine. These merchants who came from Tibet to Datang soon discovered that the barbecue, water and wine here were extraordinary.
"Are you the boss here?" the guide came to Zhao Feng and asked softly.
"Yes, I'm Zhao Feng. I wonder if your guest has any advice?" Zhao Feng cupped his fists.
"My wife, Hu Yu, has been to Chang'an before. Even the most famous restaurants in Chang'an City are not as delicious as the food and wine you have here. We will definitely pass by here when we return."
From the outside, the Monster Tavern only has two floors, but in fact it has four floors. In order not to attract the attention of outsiders and cause unnecessary trouble, Zhao Feng deliberately covered up the third and fourth floors.
Every time the Monster Tavern moves, the area of influence must be re-expanded. A month later, the Monster Tavern's area of influence has just reached the east side of the oasis. At the current rate, it will only take until next summer for the Monster Tavern to cover the monster lair.
Although the Monster Tavern opened by Zhao Feng is located in a remote place, in the past month, businessmen coming and going have learned that there is a delicious restaurant near the oasis. Soon, the Tang Dynasty's border troops nearby began to drink here often.
.
"Tian Xie, is there any news?"
That night, Huoling Tianxie had just found out some good news: "My lord, that flying snake just happened to be heading north recently and is expected to leave the monster's lair. This is a good opportunity for us to ambush it!"
Zhao Feng carefully considered the map drawn by Huo Ling Tianxie and finally formulated an ambush plan.
The next day, Zhao Feng set up a formation in the Monster Tavern and gave it to Qiniang and Sun Guangcai for use.
When Qiniang first appeared, Sun Guangcai and others were all fascinated, but things have gotten better recently.
"Brother Sun, you have to be more careful and pay attention to every change in the store."
Zhao Feng repeatedly warned Sun Guangcai, and Sun Guangcai agreed. Before leaving, he was still worried and handed Qiniang a powerful charm.
