"It's right to ask for a high price. If there is a sandstorm in the desert and we have no place to stay, we will definitely be swept away by the cyclone."

There are many cyclones in the desert, one after another, rolling up the yellow sand very high, like smoke rising from the flat ground, spinning and flying across the desert. If a person is swept away by the hurricane, he will lose his life.

"So there are so many of us and only two rooms, what will the others do?"

"What else can I do? Even if I can't get a room, I still want to stay in the inn."

"That's right, that's right."

Yanniang looked at the people below who had finished discussing, and then said:

"Guests, there are so many of you, and there are only two rooms. The highest bidder can stay in the room. If other people want to go into the inn to take shelter from the wind, we also welcome them. They can only rest in a corner of the inn, but one person can stay in the room. You have to pay five taels of silver." Yanniang spread her fingers and said with a smile.

"Fifty taels? Does it cost five taels to stay out here for one night?"

"Boss lady, these five taels are too much, can you make it less?"

They heard that the water charges here are also very expensive, and it will cost dozens of taels of silver to stay here for one night.

"Guests, there are rules in the store that cannot be broken. Besides, there are often sandstorms in the desert at night. These five taels of silver can save your lives.

Also, a bucket of water in our store costs three taels of silver, and a dish of side dishes costs one tael of silver. No credit is allowed. Is there any knight who doesn’t want to move in now? Please go out first. "

"You are just a robber. I have no money, so I just stay here. What can you do to me?" a big man yelled.

"No matter what, we can only ask you to go out." Yanniang smiled sweetly and waved her hand, and several people dressed as waiters came out from the darkness. The big man was knocked to the ground in just a few moves.

"What are you doing? Let me go!"

The big man was lifted up and thrown out of the inn.

"Good riddance, sir." Yanniang smiled and waved.

"Who else doesn't stay in an inn?"

As soon as the words fell, no one said they wanted to go out.

Seeing this, the landlady curled her lips and said, "There are two empty houses, guests can bid."

"Five taels of silver."

"I'll pay ten taels."

"I'll give you twelve taels."

"One hundred taels." Mu Chaochao shouted.

Jumping from twelve taels to one hundred taels, everyone looked at Mu Chaochao curiously.

"Why is it this little girl?"

"I saw them on the road, there were only five of them."

"They are all twenty years old at most. Why did they go into the desert?"

"Look at the way they dress, they look like they're rich."

"Two of the five people were wearing masks. They seemed to have some identity."

The landlady looked at them carefully, one hundred taels? It seems that a big customer came today.

"Anyone else bidding?"

The landlady asked, and the people below were silent.

"Okay, the two vacant rooms will be owned by this little girl. Guys, please follow me."

The two rooms were not in the same place. Mu Chaochao paid the money, and the landlady took them into the room. The room was small and simple, with only a small bed, a table, and a few stools.

"Guests, if you need water and food, you can ask the waiter to bring them over."

"Sister, this is my first time in the desert. I just want to see what the oasis is like. There are so many people in your store, is it safe?"

Mu Chaochao seemed to be holding the bundle in his hands nervously, and deliberately opened the knotted bundle to reveal some treasures inside.

"Little sister, are you so nervous? Is this your first time going out?"

"Yes, my brothers and I were all driven to the desert by our grandfather for training. It was our first time in the desert."

"Little girl, dragons and snakes are mixed here. We cannot guarantee your safety. You must take good care of your belongings and remember to close the door tightly when you rest at night."

The landlady took a look at the baggage and saw that it contained good things.

"Sister, don't worry, we will protect you." Ye Huaichen said, raising the sword in his hand.

"At home, I am also very good at martial arts. Don't worry, no one can touch us."

"Brother Su, you are the best in martial arts. I want to stay with you tonight." Mu Chaochao pulled Su Linyuan and said.

"Okay, I'll protect you. If anyone dares to come close to you, I'll beat them all."

A few of them had imitated the tone of children from rich families, and the boss lady looked at them and felt that they were really thrown out by their elders for training.

"The guests, please have a good rest. You can have dinner downstairs or ask the waiter to bring it up. I'll go down first."

Before leaving, the landlady glanced at the baggage in Mu Chaochao's hand.

"The book says it's very dangerous in the desert, otherwise we'd find a few charlatans to protect us."

"It costs so much to stay in a room. Let's ask the people below tomorrow."

"Then why don't you eat? I'm so hungry!"

"The book says you can't eat anything in the desert. Let's eat some dry food first."

After confirming that the eavesdropper was gone, Mu Chaochao threw the bag into the space.

The weather had turned cold, so Mu Chaochao brought out everyone's thick clothes from the space, as well as the meals she and the chef had cooked.

There was a full table, and several people sat around it and ate happily. They did not dare to touch the food in the inn.

"Hehe, let's eat enough. Let's wait to catch the thief tonight." This inn is Fushangtang's stronghold.

Mu Chaochao ate happily while Su Linyuan and Ye Huaichen kept picking up food for her.

"Dad, brother Chen, you guys should eat too."

As soon as they finished their dinner, a sandstorm broke out outside, and the hurricane outside roared like an angry dragon. It was destined to be an uneventful night.

Mu Chaochao was lying on the bed, using her mental power to sense the movement around her. There was a lot of noise underground, which reached her ears.

"Dad." Mu Chaochao looked at Su Linyuan and pointed down.

Su Linyuan understood, adjusted his breathing, and pretended to be asleep.

After a while, there was a scent of medicine in the room. The floor next to the bed was opened from below, and two people came up from below.

During the day, two waiters appeared in the room, looking for Mu Chaochao's baggage. Su Linyuan woke up and knocked them unconscious.

The two of them went down the opened hole. Mu Chaochao sprayed a handful of potion when he sensed someone was there, and arrived outside the main hall unimpeded.

I met Ye Huaichen and three others outside. Their room was also robbed, and they also followed the secret passage down.

At this moment, many people gathered in the main hall.

"Yanniang, are you sure that the people here today are all Jianghu people?" asked the man sitting in the main seat.

"Hall Master, the news of the treasure hunt has spread for so long, so naturally the people who enter the desert are all people in the world.

There are still a few young teenagers who are nothing to worry about. "Her people should have obtained the treasure by now.

"Young man? Have you figured out where they came from?"

"They are just a group of young people who were thrown out by their families for training."

Based on her many years of experience in seeing people, the two were wearing half-masks. One looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old, and the other was about twenty at most.

"It's best to be sure, but we can't miss the Lord's affairs anymore." Recently, they have lost a lot of people, and some things have to be found through outsiders.

"We have been searching in the desert for several years. Are you sure it is here in the desert?"

"The divination made by the national master will not be wrong. We will spread the news tomorrow and let people outside find it as soon as possible."

"it is good."

Mu Chaochao and the others looked at each other in confusion.

National Preceptor, is he the National Preceptor of Lingyue Kingdom? And what are they looking for? Could it be that he is really looking for the lost city?
