But he wisely did not mention Chen Bei's matter in front of Li Qianqian.
According to his opinion, Chen Bei is a great treasure.
No more people can know about this.
In addition, he and Li Qianqian were not familiar with each other, so there was no need.
The four of them were preparing to enter the Black Wind Sand Sea.
It's going to be night now.
In fact, now is not the right time to enter the Black Wind Sand Sea.
It is said that the probability of a "black sand storm" is higher at night than during the day.
It's just that Jian Nanchun was too worried about Chao Rushuang's safety, so after much thought, he decided to take a risk.
Before entering the sand sea, Yi Lin took advantage of Li Qianqian holding Xia Xiaoman and talking to the side. He secretly stretched out his five fingers, found a big stone, and pressed it on it.
A mysterious mark flashed on the stone.
Jian Nanchun noticed Yi Lin's little movements.
"The tracking technique marks, if we get lost in the sea of sand, we can use the water mirror tracking technique to follow this 'coordinate' to find the way out."
Yi Lin secretly sent a message to reassure Jian Nanchun.
This time, Jian Nanchun was even more jealous.
Even he doesn't know this practical secret technique, you bastard!
"You have gone too far!"
Jian Nanchun cursed politely in the voice transmission.
"speak English!"
"Junior brother, you have gone too far!"
"It's not too much!"
Junior brothers Jian Nanchun and Yi Lin exchanged glances. You glared at me, and I glanced at you.
Li Qianqian glanced at the two of them curiously, feeling that the atmosphere between them was strange and strange.
But she didn't point it out and covered her mouth with a smile. People's preferences are slightly different, which is normal.
Li Qianqian said secretly.
…
Before entering the sand sea, Li Qianqian shared some of the food and fresh water in her Sumerana ring with others.
Among the four, only Xia Xiaoman is junior and is not qualified to have a Na Ring.
What surprised Li Qianqian was that although Lin Yi had many titles, he was at most a registered disciple of "everyone", but he had his own Sumerana Ring, which showed that his status in the sect was extraordinary. This point
This made Li Qianqian look at Lin Yi with admiration again, and looked even higher.
In fact, Yi Lin's own food reserves are also very rich, but what Li Qianqian brought was food from Qingdu. Some roast ducks, roasted elbows, etc., were well wrapped in oil paper. The smell made people want to eat.
Drooling.
Yi Lin accepted it unceremoniously. As a soul gourmet, it is instinctive to taste more delicious food, and it is not shabby.
"You went to Qingdu?"
Xia Xiaoman recognized the local delicacies at a glance.
Although Xia Xiaoman lives in the palace, when she was a child, she always liked to dress up in disguise, hide her identity with her younger brother, sneak out to play on the streets of Qingdu, and eat fried sugar rings and other street snacks. Now when she smells the smell of the oil buns,
Xia Xiaoman then knew that Li Qianqian had just arrived from Qingdu.
"Yes, I went to Qingdu to inquire about the news."
After the four people distributed the food, they controlled their respective flying magic weapons and entered the sea of sand.
The spiritual energy in the sand sea is chaotic, sometimes barren, sometimes chaotic, and without any rules. For the sake of safety, a few people dare not fly at too fast a speed, for fear of running out of true energy all at once and crashing on the spot. That is really a Heavenly Sword Sect.
The monk was completely disgraced.
About half an hour later.
The four of them marched for hundreds of miles through the black wind and sandy sea.
The yellow sand underfoot becomes darker and darker, gradually transitioning to black.
Jian Nanchun said that this is the so-called "black sand". It is said that it is because the last battle between good and evil was so brutal that all the monks' magic weapons, flying swords, and instruments were crushed into powder in that battle. And these were made by various people.
A kind of powder composed of fine gold metal accumulates in the sand sea over time, and is repeatedly polished by wind and sand, gradually turning into gravel. The metal dust and gravel merge together to form "black sand" that is enough to scrape skin and crack bones.
At the end of the explanation, Jian Nanchun saw that Junior Sister Xia Xiaoman was nervous, so he smiled and comforted him: "But Junior Sister, don't worry too much. It is said that this black sandstorm may not happen once a month. Besides, if Junior Sister Chao is also in it, she
Ji people have their own destiny, and we won't be so unlucky."
"It's really hard to say." Junior Brother Lin muttered at the side.
Moreover, what Senior Brother Jian said does not make sense.
Whether Chao Rushuang is lucky or not has no logical connection with us.
"Junior Brother Lin, what are you talking about?"
"Ahem, no. I just think it's always good to be careful. What if we really get caught in a black sandstorm?" Yi Lin quickly shook his head.
It’s just that you go, maybe this black sandstorm happens only once a month like my aunt. But it’s hard to say if he’s here. Ever since Yilin understood the setting of “luck value”, she will never place her hope on “luck” again.
"Above. The aunt who comes once a month can have a massive hemorrhage in minutes when she meets Yi Lin.
"Junior brother Lin, why do you look a little embarrassed?"
"Ahem, no embarrassment, no embarrassment."
While the two were chatting.
Seeing that the two of them had a good relationship, Li Qianqian couldn't help but come over and interrupt.
She took the initiative to tell the results of her investigation in Qingdu.
As soon as Li Qianqian opened her mouth, she attracted the attention of the two senior brothers.
"I was ordered to go to Qingdu to find out before them whether there were people from the Demon Sect behind this turmoil. Unfortunately, no trace of the Demon Sect disciples led by Mo Luodian was found in Qingdu.
However, I discovered something very interesting."
Li Qianqian said: "You may not believe it when I say it. The Empress Dowager, Emperor Ji Sheng, who goes to court every day in the Jinluan Palace and decides on Daqing's state affairs... is fake!"
"What! Is my brother fake?"
Xia Xiaoman didn't interrupt at first, but when she heard this, she suddenly lost her composure and asked in shock: "How is that possible?"
"Hehehe, you don't need to ask me how I found out. In short, I have my own method. I can be 100% sure that the empress dowager and the emperor in the palace today are just substitutes who are very similar to me."
When Yi Lin and Jian Nanchun heard this, they looked at each other and did not have any drastic thoughts about it.
Xia Xiaoman was very excited: "Then where is my brother now?"
Li Qianqian shrugged her shoulders slightly: "I don't know about that. In fact, it has nothing to do with me whether the emperor and the empress in the palace are real or not. After I found out about this matter, I immediately left Qingdu and used the 'Snake Saliva' to track me along the way.
After arriving at your location, we came to the south. What I didn't expect was that while I was tracking you, you were actually tracking Chao Rushuang."
At this moment.
Shortly after Li Qianqian finished saying this, the other people had different thoughts.
As they went deeper into the sand sea, they saw a stretch of undulating sand dunes with no end in sight.
I don’t know when it started, the yellow sand under my feet turned into pitch black, and the sky lit up with a fire-like glow. The sunset light reflected on the sand dunes, distorting the scenery in the distance, forming a bizarre scene like a "mirage"
.
The red clouds in the sky are like a pot lid, pressing down on everyone's heads. It is obviously a gorgeous and beautiful scenery, but it makes people unable to appreciate it. Because with the appearance of the clouds, the surrounding aura seems to have been drained.
Normally, the people who were flying in the air with their swords would feel as painful as suffocation.
"The air pressure is getting lower here."
Yi Lin looked at the sky and inexplicably said something that was not in line with the times. Before others could react, Yi Lin quickly said: "Sure enough, the black sand storm is coming, let's get down quickly!"
Junior Brother Lin Yi's words made Jian Nanchun and Li Qianqian look at each other.
really?
What's true?
Why did it come true?
…
…
Three days ago.
Jingnancheng.
The wind and snow stopped.
Shortly after Yi Lin, Jian Nanchun, and Xia Xiaoman left.
A yak convoy arrived ten miles outside Jingnan City and set up camp in the suburbs ten miles away. Tents were set up on the ground like small bags.
Someone drove the yak and went to Jingnan City to report:
"A friend is coming from the north. Please invite the King of Zhennan to gather at the camp ten miles away!"
Xia Xingchen, who was waiting hard in Zhennan Palace, jumped up from his seat and sneered the moment he received the news.
"Pass this on and let the secret envoy enter the city to speak!"
"Report! The secret envoy does not want to enter the city! Please invite the King of Zhennan to gather at the camp outside the city!"
"Pass, let the secret envoy enter the city!"
"Report! The secret envoy does not want to enter the city!"
"pass--"
"Report——"
"Pass it again!"
"Report again!!"
In this way, the two sides reached a stalemate.
This stalemate lasted for three days and three nights.
One doesn't want to go out, and the other doesn't want to come in.
The King of Zhennan originally arranged a lot of things in the city, originally to invite you to enter the urn, but he didn't expect the other party to be so timid, so he ruined all the hard work he had put in these days.
"Asshole!"
King Zhennan was so angry that he smashed the table with his palm. Who can understand the bitterness of these days?
First, he was tortured by the Apocalypse assassin for a month. Although he finally got the promise of "one business" from the mysterious assassin, wasn't it still painful? King Zhennan hasn't vented his anger yet.
Thinking of this mere secret envoy of the Empress Dowager, he was given another insult.
Finally, the King of Zhennan could not sit still, and led thousands of elite soldiers, riding armored horses, out of the city in a mighty manner and arrived at the camp where the Empress Dowager's secret envoy was stationed.
While rushing, King Zhennan cursed angrily: "I would like to take a closer look to see why the secret envoy has such a temper!"
During this battle, it was clear that they all stayed here because of a disagreement.
"Ah,"
Among them, in the most luxurious carriage, accompanied by a light and melodious laughter, a slender white thigh stretched out from behind the curtain.
A tall, elegant lady with bunted hair and fair earlobes wearing gold and jade stepped out of the carriage with a smile on her face.
"Xia Xingchen, I haven't seen you for ten years, and you're still such a bad-tempered person."
The beautiful woman smiled slightly and walked to Xia Xingchen's army with the support of a thin "boy" who lowered his head.
When he heard the voice, Xia Xingchen was just suspicious, but when the beautiful woman appeared, Xia Xingchen's eyes widened and he revealed the woman's identity incredulously:
"How could it be you! Concubine Shu!"
The former concubine Shu, now the empress dowager, bowed slightly. She stood there, her silver makeup and snow curtain all dim.
"Not only the Ai family, the Ai family brought a gift to Prince Nan today. Come on, Ji'er, come and say hello to your uncle."
"Yes, the Queen Mother."
Under the astonished gaze of the King of Zhennan, the "boy" who was supporting the beautiful woman hesitantly took off his snow-covering hood and raised his head, revealing the face of a timid young man who was suffering from the misfortune.
"Xia, Xia, Xia Jisheng, I have met the emperor's uncle."
