“I didn’t expect there to be such a big city here!”
Ding Xiaoyi looked at the town in front of him. A crystal clear river flowed slowly along the front of the town, surrounded by large expanses of greenery, full of vitality.
"The people here are a bit like our European ancestry!" Song Xingxue focused his eyes on the businessmen passing by outside the city gate.
These people have broad foreheads, tall and broad faces, high cheekbones, wide noses, thick beards on the top, and only a small bunch of stiff beards under the collar.
But if you look closely, there are still big differences. The skin of these people is very fair and delicate, and their eyes are big and lively.
Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but nodded after looking carefully. There were some similarities.
Compared with the attention of the two of them, Zhang Gu paid more attention to the guards outside the city gate.
They are covered with strange scales, which are stacked one on top of another. Although they look heavy, they don't look stupid at all.
It is somewhat more sophisticated than the heavy armor of the Wei State today.
When the three people arrived, the merchants and guards also noticed them, or in other words noticed the motorcycle the three people were riding on. They all cast curious glances in their eyes, obviously they had never seen such a magical item.
However, despite being curious, no one took the initiative to ask about their origins.
When they reached the edge of the town, the three of them simply got out of the car and walked forward.
After entering the town, you will see that the small town in front of you is extremely lively and noisy.
Various strange and eccentric musical instruments play brisk rhythmic music, and the dancers in hot clothes twist their graceful figures to the beat.
Not to mention that Ding Xiaoyi and Song Xingxue had never met before, even Zhang Gu blushed when he saw it.
After all, these women with hot figures have exposed small waists, their upper bodies are only wrapped in a simple piece of silk, and the bulging cherries can be faintly seen.
Coupled with the charming dancing posture, it is really sultry to watch.
Zhang Gu looked at it twice and was too embarrassed to read any more. He snorted coldly in his nose: "After all, it is a barbarian land and cannot be educated."
As he spoke, he silently took out the point-and-shoot camera he had just learned and took a few photos.
Don’t get me wrong, after all, as a home, collecting materials at all times is a must-do homework.
"smell good!"
Song Xingxue raised his nose and looked up, and saw a meat restaurant.
There was an oven set up outside the meat restaurant, and two chefs were standing there, diligently turning over the meat skewers in their hands.
Various spices are sprinkled on the meat skewers, and the fat overflowing from the meat skewers is splashed on the charcoal fire, causing little sparks to explode, and the rich aroma suddenly spreads, which is already exciting.
"Haha, I didn't expect to have barbecue here. Come on, let's have a full meal first."
Song Xing drooled with eagerness, dragging Ding Xiaoyi and Zhang Gu into the store.
Although they are foreign countries, there is no obstacle in communication between Ding Xiaoyi and Song Xingxue.
With their strength reaching their level, they only need a hint of spiritual power to make the other party understand exactly what they mean.
Besides, Ding Xiaoyi can understand these foreign languages clearly. Don't forget, he has eaten Chunlong's meat and can read thousands of languages.
As for Zhang Gu, this wooden lump, he has an expression that says I will eat whatever you want, and you can just pay the bill anyway.
This time Ding Xiaoyi casually threw out a golden bean, not because he suddenly became generous, but because he didn't want Song Xingxue to be so high-profile.
If we follow Ding Xiaoyi and the others to this remote ghost place, Zhang Gu will probably be the one who has gained the most so far.
The exotic foreign country in his mouth had a delicious taste that he had never tasted before. A large amount of cumin, pepper, and spices had been perfectly integrated into the plump lamb during the charcoal roasting.
When you take one bite, you will feel the delicious aroma. The grilled meat has a crispy texture on the outside, but it is plump and juicy. The more you chew, the more delicious it becomes.
Paired with a bite of thick and chewy Hu Pancake, it is a perfect match.
The only bad thing is that after eating for a long time, my cheeks are a little sore.
There is no beer here, but there is ice-cold wine. A bite of barbecue, a bite of biscuits, and then drinking a generation of sweet and cold wine. This taste makes Ding Xiaoyi and Song Xingxue feel like they have returned to reality and are eating barbecue on the roadside.
After Ding Xiaoyi drank a few glasses of wine, he felt that the wine became more and more addictive. Coupled with his own special constitution, he even drank five or six bottles of wine, but he did not become drunk.
Then he took out another ingot of gold, ordered a dozen barrels of wine, and five or six roast sheep, and put them into the psychic space.
He didn't forget Big Head, Belan and the six pirate brothers who came with him this time.
While eating and drinking, Ding Xiaoyi called the woman who was serving the food, took out a golden bean and stuffed it into the woman's hand calmly.
Looking at the shining golden beans in her hand, the woman's eyes lit up, and she was about to crawl into his arms.
"No, no, no, I don't want this, I want to know something."
Seeing that Hu Nu had misunderstood what he meant, Ding Xiaoyi quickly pushed her away, took out a map, pointed to the location of Kunlun on the map, and asked her: "How far is this place from here??"
Considering that the commerce here is so developed and there are so many businessmen in the past, people here will have heard of Kunlun.
Ding Xiaoyi wanted to ask about the distance from here to Kunlun, and to find out if anyone had seen any traces of Yu Niang.
However, when the woman saw Kunlun on the map, her smiling face suddenly became stiff.
"Cross, Cross..."
The woman screamed and backed away, bumping into the wine bottle and dinner plate at the next table, making a clanging sound.
But instead of getting angry, the diners at the next table eating meat showed panic on their faces after hearing the woman's screams. Without saying a word, they stood up and walked out.
The three of them couldn't help but look at each other when they saw this. Ding Xiaoyi didn't even need to use the power of the fire of thought to feel the huge fear emerging from the woman's heart. With the unfamiliar word in her mouth, the fear was rapidly spreading to the surroundings.
"Something's wrong, put it away quickly and leave!"
Seeing this, Song Xingxue stuffed a mouthful of mutton into his mouth and called the three of them to go out.
Although I don’t know what the ‘Clos’ that the woman calls means, but there has already been a commotion, and staying here will only cause trouble.
The three of them put away the map and rushed out immediately, blending into the crowd and quickly leaving the barbecue restaurant.
But they did not go far, but hid not far away and watched quietly.
Soon, a group of guards were seen hurrying over. The woman just now was speaking garbled words and pointing in the direction of the hotel.
Apparently she called the guards.
The people around her dispersed long ago when they heard her shout again.
"It seems that the place Kunlun is a taboo here and is not allowed to be mentioned." Song Xingxue speculated.
Ding Xiaoyi nodded, but the more this happened, the more he wanted to figure out why.
After all, Kunlun is Yu Niang's destination. If it is really dangerous there, we must find out why.
The guards in front of them searched around and found no trace of the three of them, then turned around and took the woman away together.
Judging from the way the woman was screaming and crying, it seemed that the fate of being taken away would not be good.
Seeing this, Ding Xiaoyi's heart moved, he took out the [Psychic Scepter] to call out his big eyes, and followed him to see what was going on.
On the side, Song Xingxue stared straight at the [Psychic Scepter], feeling envious, jealous, and resentful again.
I thought to myself with sadness in my heart: "Is this guy the reincarnation of Doraemon? Why does he have all kinds of weird treasures??"
Then from the perspective of big eyes, the woman was led into the inner gate of the city, and as the gate slowly opened.
Big Eyeball took the opportunity to sneak into the door first.
Behind the gate, there is a smaller town, which seems to be the core area of the city.
The area is heavily guarded, and although there are people living there, few people walk on the streets.
The woman was taken all the way to a palace.
In the dim hall, only a few oil lamps flickered with weak light.
In the middle of the hall, there is a stone statue enshrined, but the stone statue is blurry. Ding Xiaoyi can only see a vague outline through his big eyes.
The woman was pressed into the palace and fell to her knees involuntarily, trembling all over and not even daring to raise her head.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..." was accompanied by the sound of chains clashing.
In the dark hall, an old man covered in black robe slowly walked out with a cane.
Although the woman did not raise her head to look, her body was already paralyzed to the ground just by hearing the sound.
As the light gradually became clearer, Ding Xiaoyi gradually saw clearly the face covered with knife marks under the black cloak.
The vicissitudes of life were covered with criss-crossing scars, and a dark scar in the middle looked like a crawling centipede.
It spread from the forehead along the bridge of the nose to the chin. This face alone makes people shudder.
The whites of the old man's eyes were even more cloudy, with no pupils visible at all.
What's even more weird is that the old man is actually wearing two thick shackles, and the "ding-ding-ding-ding" metal collision sound comes from the chains under his feet.
"Who is asking about Cross?" The hoarse voice, even though it was gentle, was still as terrifying to the woman's ears as a cry coming from the abyss of hell.
"I don't know, I don't know them, they are three people, three foreigners!"
The woman's trembling voice defended herself anxiously.
The old man didn't mean to embarrass her any more. He nodded and motioned to the guards to take the person out.
Chiguo's feet stepped lightly on the smooth ground.
He turned around step by step and looked at the statue behind him.
He controls the big eyes and wants to see clearly what this old guy is doing.
However, at this moment, Ding Xiaoyi suddenly felt a strong sense of voyeurism in his heart, as if something was staring at him.
The feeling is really indescribable, as if my soul is about to be pierced!
He was suddenly startled, and the big eyeball that was invisible and suspended in front of the hall suddenly glanced at the sky, only to see a huge eyeball on the dome of the hall, silently staring in the direction of his body.
