Zhang Cong clapped his hands: "It's the Houtu Sect, let's set off immediately."
Several people got up and left Yinshan, and soon arrived at the westernmost border of Yanzhou, where a desolate and lonely desert appeared before their eyes.
This desert is very famous in Yanzhou. Not only does it have a ferocious and cunning spiritual beast, it also produces a rare metal star sand, and this star sand is actually the feces of the spiritual beast.
That kind of spiritual beast is called a star-eating beast. It looks a bit like a big rat. The largest one is two meters long. Not only can its sharp teeth be able to crush steel, but it can even eat and digest it.
The Star-Eating Beast is invulnerable and hides under the yellow sand all year round. As long as humans and animals enter the sand sea, they will most likely feed the Star-Eating Beast, so this sand sea is also called the Desert of Death.
The Houtu Sect is somewhere in this sea of sand. The sect is extremely hidden, and it is easy for someone to find it. The only strong enemy of the Houtu Sect is the Beast Control Sect, which is the number one among the nine sects.
Chiyang Mountain, where the Beast Control Sect is located, borders the Desert of Death, and the Beast Control Sect's unique beast control skills have made the two sects competitors of Star Sand. The Star Devouring Beast was captured by the Houtu Sect and even
Killing is just to obtain star sand, but in fact, the star-devouring beast is a spiritual beast raised by the Beast Control Sect to produce star sand.
This made the two sects at odds with each other. Later, the Houtu Sect and Wanjintang got closer, so the Beast Control Sect did not dare to suppress the Houtu Sect. This desert of death gradually became the territory of the Houtu Sect.
The star beast has also changed from a working beast to a ferocious beast that causes widespread disasters.
Zhang Cong and the others chose Houtu Sect to attack. They realized that because they were far away from the royal city of Yanzhou, even if Wanjintang rushed to rescue them, they would not be able to come in time. They were still sworn enemies in their only neighbor, Yushou Sect. Although they were all nine sect allies of Wanjintang, the Beast Yusect saw
It is entirely possible to die without saving.
After Ming Gong introduced the general situation of Houtu Sect, Zhang Cong and others looked at the desert, which was all the same, and really scratched their heads. There was almost no wind in the desert, and the sun was like a fire, baking the entire sea of sand.
The heat was steaming, and Zhang Cong let go of his consciousness and saw that there were holes everywhere under the desert, and countless weak spiritual power fluctuations spread almost hundreds of miles around.
According to what Ming Gong said, it is estimated that the people below are all strange beasts from the desert. Zhang Cong and others were not afraid of attacks by the strange beasts, so the five of them stepped into the sea of sand.
There was no direction or coordinates. On the map of Yanzhou, there was no location of the Houtu Sect at all. As Zhang Cong walked, he magnified his spiritual sense to explore. He spread his spiritual sense for hundreds of miles and found no building.
Zhang Cong was about to communicate with the little porcelain vase when Qin Yu suddenly pulled him with his hand. Zhang Cong turned around and saw a camel team in the distance, slowly walking over.
The huge sand camel was two feet tall, with a thick layer of coarse cloth wrapped around its legs. Sitting on its broad back was a mortal. There were more than forty sand camels in this camel team, nearly sixty in total.
people.
Except for one foundation-building monk, they were all mortals, so it was no wonder that they didn't attract everyone's attention.
Zhang Cong and the other five have suppressed their cultivation to the lowest level, and are no different from ordinary people. After the camel team came to the five people, the foundation-building old man sat on the sand camel and asked: "How come you five are here? Don't do it."
Are you dead? There will be a tide of beasts in this sand sea at any time. You mortals, when you encounter a star-devouring beast, you don’t even have a chance to run away, so why are you still walking in?"
Lord Ming hurriedly said: "Master Immortal, we encountered robbers. They not only robbed the horses, but also wanted to rob my daughter, so we kept running and ended up in this desert. We are businessmen from Jinhua Prefecture. We entered
I can't even find any direction in the desert, but I'm lucky to have met you, the Immortal."
The foundation-building monk glanced at a few people and then looked at Qin Yu. Not only did his eyes light up, he thought for a moment and said: "We are going to Yangjiaotanwei City. You can come with us. You will die if you wander around."
After speaking, Zhang Cong and others were arranged to get on the sand camels, and the camel team slowly walked towards the depths of the sand sea.
Zhang Cong sat on a sand camel with a middle-aged man wrapped in coarse cloth. After walking for a while, Zhang Cong looked at the sand sea and asked: "Are you merchants who often travel to the sand sea? Are there any interesting places nearby?"
"
The middle-aged man looked at Zhang Cong and ignored him. Zhang Cong thought he didn't understand, so he slowed down his speech several times, but the man remained silent. Zhang Cong looked angry.
He shook his head, and before he could say anything more, the man suddenly made a silence gesture, faced Zhang Cong and opened his mouth.
Zhang Cong was surprised to find that there was no tongue in the man's mouth.
Before Zhang Cong could take a closer look, Qin Yu's message came through his mind. The woman sitting on a sand camel with her had no tongue in her mouth.
Under the scorching sun, a lonely camel team slowly walked in the depths of the sand sea. There was only the tinkling of the camel bells and no sound at all. This added a touch of weirdness to the already empty desert. Zhang Cong
Although he could not judge the purpose of this camel caravan, he was sure that it was definitely not a serious businessman and was probably related to the Houtu Sect. After all, the current Shahai was the territory of the Houtu Sect.
Zhang Cong sent a message to everyone, asking everyone to calm down. This mysterious Houtu Sect is difficult to find. If this camel team is related to the Houtu Sect, maybe we can find a clue through the camel team, which is better than finding a needle in a haystack.
After two hours of staggering walking, the surroundings were still deserted. There was not even a shadow of the Yangjiaotanwei city mentioned by Zhuji. The people on the sand camel drank water several times during the journey, but no one drank it.
Water was given to Zhang Cong and five people.
The camel team climbed up a high sand mountain. Zhang Cong looked down from the sand camel. Under the sand mountain, a small oasis appeared in the distance.
Shatuo's speed obviously increased. He must have known that there was water and food in the oasis. Zhang Cong and the others noticed that the foundation-building monk released an eagle and flew directly in the direction of the oasis.
Sure enough, before the camel team reached the oasis, several figures quickly approached. Zhang Cong saw that they were three golden elixir monks. They were all dressed in rags, and even their faces were covered tightly. Three golden elixir monks
Dan jumped directly onto the sand camel. Although he didn't say a word, it was obvious that he was looking at Zhang Cong and others.
Zhang Cong secretly laughed in his heart. He was really afraid that the Houtu Sect would not come forward, so it would be difficult for him to find the Houtu Sect's mountain gate.
The camel team walked directly to the edge of the oasis. After everyone got off the sand camel, the three golden elixirs did not arrest Zhang Cong and others, but allowed them to wander around the market in the oasis. However, Zhang Congming showed that
It can be felt that a few rays of spiritual consciousness have never left their bodies.
The Wei market is not too big, and the most popular thing sold there is a black powdery metal, which should be the legendary Xingsha. Most of the people in the Wei market are monks with rags wrapped around their bodies.
They look like zombies, there are also monks wearing animal skins, but the number is very small, and then there are businessmen.
Zhang Cong estimated that the ones wearing animal skins were monks from the Beast Control Sect, and the zombie-like ones were from the Houtu Sect.
There were actually quite a few women in Wei Market, all wearing very little. Zhang Cong estimated that they were all arrested from outside. As for what they were arrested for, everyone knew.
Zhang Cong noticed that Qin Yu's face was gloomy and almost dripping with water. He quickly walked over to hold her and asked her to calm down for a while. At this moment, Zhang Cong felt two Nascent Souls suddenly coming from Wei City and headed directly towards her.
He and Qin Yu came over.
Zhang Cong secretly laughed in his heart. At this time, the people came to deliver the address. Zhang Cong could guess what they were doing. He couldn't help but look at Qin Yu and found that Qin Yu was glaring at him fiercely.
Zhang Cong felt a chill running down his back, and quickly pulled Qin Yu, held her in his arms, and whispered: "Don't kill me because you expect them to wait for us to go to Houtu Sect."
Qin Yu pinched Zhang Cong's waist hard and suddenly let go of Zhang Cong, with a charming smile appearing on his face.
The two Nascent Soul cultivators who had already reached Zhang Cong's side stopped unexpectedly and almost bumped into each other, causing several women around them to burst into laughter.
The two Nascent Souls scolded him a few times, walked up to Qin Yu and said, "Our boss wants to see you, come with us?"
Qin Yu smiled charmingly: "Okay? But I have to take my husband with me. Otherwise, if I encounter bad people, I, a weak woman, cannot protect myself."
The two Nascent Souls laughed and said, "Okay, you two, come with us." After saying this, they sandwiched Zhang Cong and Qin Yu and walked towards the depths of Wei City.
After walking a few hundred meters, they stopped in front of a white cloth tent. As soon as the leader Yuanying lifted the curtain, Zhang Cong and Qin Yu walked into the tent.
As soon as he entered, Zhang Cong realized that this was actually a space magic weapon. It looked like a tent from the outside, but it was actually a large space inside.
There are restaurants, inns and even gambling houses in the two acres of land. There are many waving women on both sides of the street. The two Nascent Souls directly brought Zhang Cong and the two of them into a very luxurious looking inn.
He led the two of them up to the second floor.
The door of Tianzi Room 1 on the second floor was open. As soon as Zhang Cong and Qin Yu entered, they grabbed Zhang Cong with two big hands and tried to throw him out. Qin Yu screamed and shouted: "What are you doing? Why?
Catch my husband?"
Suddenly there was an unpleasant sound in the room.
"Do you want him to be thrown out, or do you want him to die?"
It was like hanging an iron plate with glass pieces. The sound was harsh and unpleasant. Following the voice, a thing with rags all over its body and only two eyes exposed slowly walked towards Qin Yu from the darkness.
Qin Yu asked with a cry: "Who are you? Do you dare to kill and rob people in broad daylight? Is there any royal law in Yanzhou?"
One of the Nascent Souls who was holding Zhang Cong laughed loudly: "Wang Fa? In this desert of death, Houtu Sect is Wang Fa, and our three elders are Wang Fa."
Qin Yu suddenly burst into tears and laughed: "Oh, so you are the third elder of Houtu Sect? It was so hard for me to find him. If I had told you earlier, I would have come up myself."
As he spoke, Qin Yu twisted her slim waist and walked swaying in front of the third elder. She saw a flash of purple light all over her body, and the third elder suddenly fell to the ground with a thud and screamed like a slaughtering pig.
