Chapter 570 Dragon Inn
The yellow sand in the desert and the blood-stained sunset constitute a picture of eternal desolation. Everything is frozen. Although there is no ice in the desert, the yellow sand is frozen by the low temperature and becomes as cold and solid as iron filings. m
Occasionally, a whirlwind blows up the dust into the sky, and finally falls down, dust to dust to dust.
The ear-piercing sound of the wind is like an ancient ballad echoing in the desert, desolate and lonely, the sky and the earth are covered with yellow sand, and there is no trace of green. Occasionally, a ball of grass rolls on the surface of the yellow sand. I don’t know where it came from and where it is going. Going around, it seems that this eternal yellow sand seems to have no end.
Scar led Tang Tian and his party towards the Longmen Inn they said. It is impossible for people who entered the desert for the first time to know where that place is. Only people like Scar and the others who often go there know exact location.
"Brother Scar, in the endless yellow sand desert, there is no reference, do you all just use the sun as a guide?" Tang Tian asked.
Scar smiled and replied: "The sun is only one aspect. Many times the sun does not rise or after it has set, it will not work. It needs to be judged according to the trend of the sand dunes, etc. If you don't have such common sense, it is very easy. Lost in the desert."
Tang Tian nodded, expressing his understanding, the desert is boundless, if there is no special way, it is really easy to get lost, and once lost in the vast yellow sand desert, the ending can be imagined.
"Hey, I said little fat man, your name is Li Haotian, right? I don't think you should call yourself by that name. It's better to change it to Li Fantong. Look at how fat you are. You can hardly see your eyes. Along the way I have never seen you stop talking, you are not afraid of being stuffed to death if you keep eating and eating." Zhao Daniu looked at the little fat man and said with surprise.
This fat man is so delicious, he ate it all the way and never stopped, all the people in the group were amazed. Is this little fat man's stomach a bottomless pit? I can't fill it up.
"Tch, big man, you are so tall that I don't eat as much as I do. I really don't know how you grow," the little fat man replied quickly, and then buried himself in eating hard again.
Zhao Daniu was speechless, actually being despised. But he didn't care about it, it's a very painful thing to compare with foodies.
A group of people buried their heads on their way, and no one mentioned the previous incident, as if they had been forgotten, but when Scar talked to Tang Tian, he was not as bold as before, but became a lot more cautious. He could never forget the feeling of trepidation, knowing that Tang Tian and the others must have a lot of background, if they accidentally offended them, they would die unjustly.
Regarding this, Tang Tian could only express his helplessness. He really didn't care about the previous events in his heart. After all, no one knew that there was a poisonous scorpion hidden under the fire.
A group of people walked by, leaving rows of messy footprints on the yellow sand. Before long, the traces will be wiped away by the yellow sand, leaving nothing behind.
"The yellow sand is full of dust, the camel bell is ringing, where is the end, there is water in the oasis, the pearls are bright and the road is vast...", the journey is lonely and boring. These people who lived in the desert all year round sang this strange tune again, and a feeling of desolation and loneliness emerged spontaneously.
"It's too slow to travel like this. Why don't you travel in the sky? I think you also have mounts that can fly." Tang Tian asked curiously.
Scar's complexion changed and he said, "No way, even if you walk in the yellow sand, you have to pay attention to the ground, but it's relatively much safer. If you fly in the sky, goshawks from hundreds of miles away can see it. It turns out that those guys are extremely fierce, and they don’t know how to die when the time comes. There is a saying in our desert that we would rather travel for ten days than travel from the sky. Too much experience tells us that no matter how powerful His skill cannot escape the ambush of the overlord of the sky."
"It's that dangerous"? Tang Tian was surprised. It's not like he's never seen a mutated eagle beast before, but it's not as scary as he said, no one dares to drive in the sky, is it really that powerful?
Scar smiled helplessly and said: "Don't you believe it, in the desert sky, there is a mutated eagle covered with golden light, which looks like a golden-winged roc in teleportation, and spreads its wings for a thousand meters. It was extremely fast, almost showing a golden light, and many people were torn apart before they could react. Who would dare to swagger forward in the sky? And that is not the most powerful, there is a mutant eagle that can blow up a piece of air Sandstorms, sneak attacks hidden in sandstorms, people are hard to guard against, after a long time, no one dares to rush in the sky, no matter how good your skills are."
Tang Tian was stunned. With such an existence, it is really not suitable to travel in the sky. It is too dangerous. Although there are exaggerations in Scar's words, it also objectively illustrates a fact.
"Haha, look, you can see the Dragon Inn after turning over the sand dune." At this moment, Dao Scar stood on the sand dune and pointed into the distance.
There was still endless yellow sand ahead, and Tang Tian and the others had never been here before, so they had no idea at all.
"Brother Scar, how do you live in this desert? Every day you go out to hunt monsters and live like this"? Tang Tian asked.
Scar sighed and said: "What else can we do? After all, we need to eat. In this desert, there is a shortage of everything, such as water and food, and the prey is well hidden. Sometimes we don't get anything for a few days, right? Let alone us, where are the people in Wolf Castle, as long as they are capable, they will go to the desert to hunt monsters every day, otherwise they will not be able to maintain normal operations at all. The daily consumption of so many people is a terrifying numbers."
"Oh? Then what's your price like?"
"It's expensive, it's expensive. For example, if someone brings cigarettes from other places, the snake you killed before can only be exchanged for a pack of cigarettes. Even if it's just meat, it can last a long time for a hundred people. , but how many people can hunt such a big prey, the desert is almost full of poisonous insects, there are very few edible things, the food is extremely precious, but if the precious food is replaced by luxury goods such as cigarettes, it will be insignificant ", Scar said helplessly.
Tang Tian's heart was shaken. Even though the scar above gave an example, he could still see the extent of the shortage of supplies in the desert.
Speaking of cigarettes, Tang Tian's addiction to cigarettes was hooked. He took out two packs and opened them. Under the eager eyes of those people, each of them spilled one, and the two packs of cigarettes were gone.
At this time, Zhao Yue'er gave Leng Xue a look, Leng Xue understood, snatched the cigarette from Tang Tian's hand before he lit it, and put it in his mouth to help him light it, she was choked to tears, but she didn't Not caring, he put the lit cigarette in Tang Tian's mouth.
Tang Tian was speechless, this must have been taught by Zhao Yueer, under the envious eyes of others, Tang Tian enjoyed the comfort brought by cigarettes as if nothing had happened.
"Hey, good stuff, Zhonghua, tsk tsk, you can have a good meal in the Longmen Inn with just this one cigarette," Dao Scar sighed. Such a good cigarette, Tang Tian casually took a cigarette for each person, as if nothing happened, he became more and more frightened by the origin of Tang Tian and others.
There is no point of reference in the desert, but the road still had to be finished. Finally, they came to the hill mentioned by Scar before. Looking from here, among the vast yellow sand in the distance, there were dozens of trees. A flagpole of Migao stands, with a large flag made of animal skins hanging on it, with the words "Longmen Inn" written on it.
Under the flagpole, there is a fortress-like building, built with yellow sand and wood, which is extremely simple, as if it could be blown down by the wind, this is the so-called Longmen Inn.
In this endless yellow sand desert, if you search all the places, only here are there buildings.
Outside the Longmen Inn, there are many wooden stakes. There are some mutant beasts tied to the wooden stakes. They must be people's mounts. Among them are wolves, leopards, tigers, and even snakes and poisonous scorpions. Except, these tamed mutated beasts are not very big, the largest is only a thirty-meter-long snake, and it is not known whether they were born with such a large body shape or became smaller in ancient times.
"Is this the Dragon Gate Inn? But it's really tasteful, the desert is yellow sand, only a broken flag is flying. This Dragon Gate Inn is really as described in the description," Tang Tian said with a smile.
"Let's go, it's getting dark. In the desert at night, the temperature is frighteningly low. I'm afraid it can be a hundred degrees below zero. No matter how good your physique is, no one wants to stay in the desert at night," Scar said with a smile.
"Hey, Brother Scar, here we go again? How did you get out this time? It must be a rewarding experience."
"Scar, these people are all new faces, are they your new subordinates? Not bad, there are two beautiful girls among them, haha..."
"Old Scar, come and have a drink with us, you don't taste like drinking anymore"
When Tang Tian and his party arrived, many people greeted Dao Scar with smiles. From their words, it could be seen that Dao Scar was really as famous as the little fat man said, and he was a well-known figure in this generation .
"Hey, isn't this a scar? Why, I lived an extra day without dying outside"? At this moment, a malicious voice sounded from the second floor of the inn.
"Who did I think it was? It turned out to be you, a dirt dog. I'm still alive and well even if you turned into a mutated animal's dung." Scar looked at the second floor of the inn and snorted coldly.
No matter how well a person eats, there are always a few enemies, and the earth dog in Scar's mouth seems to be one of Scar's few enemies. Tang Tian doesn't want to pay attention to these, everyone has their own way of life .
"I won't bother you if I die or not, but you have to be careful when you bring back two beautiful chicks this time, so that they won't be snatched away by someone, hahaha..." the earth dog laughed.
Hearing his words, Tang Tian frowned, and looked over coldly...
