Why did you mess up the copy again?

Zhu Wen was not a shameless monster, but he had scales on his cheeks, so even though his blood was rising, he still couldn't blush.

Of course he knew his purpose had been exposed, but he didn't know what to say.

To his expectation, Li Rui did not blame him. He just stood up and said, "Solve it quickly. We are ready to go."

After saying that, he returned directly to the resting sand dune.

It was only then that Zhu Wen realized belatedly that when he ran away, he clearly saw Li Rui still resting under the cloth cover, but he didn't expect that Li Rui was standing in front of him in the blink of an eye, but he didn't know the other person at all. How is it done.

After much thought, he could only think that this person's strength far exceeded his own. As for what method was used, he didn't guess, and it was impossible to guess. There was no point in thinking about it.

When Zhu Wen adjusted his mentality and gave up escaping, he went back to meet up. Cheng Mingyue seemed to know nothing, and Julishi didn't respond. If Yuan Erliang hadn't always looked at him sideways, he would have thought they were really Didn't notice.

Li Rui said: "Let's set off quickly. How far is Huangsha Ancient City?"

At this time, Zhu Wen's mentality had become calm.

Although he was a little timid, he was not really stupid. After Li Rui blocked his escape plan in an understatement, he was basically sure that he would not be able to leave the team.

So since you have no choice, why not help them wholeheartedly.

Even if he thinks that this trip will lead to death, he still has to give it a try. If these people change their minds, they might still have a chance to survive.

Zhu Wen no longer refused, and wholeheartedly helped guide the way.

Li Rui didn't care about his thoughts. No matter what, it was impossible for this demon clan to escape from his grasp, especially as the group continued to go deeper.

However, it turns out that it is very necessary to find this three-legged demon guide. There are continuous sand dunes in this desert, and you will lose your way if you are not careful. Sometimes there are strong winds that stir up sand and dust.

Without someone familiar with the terrain to guide you, it’s easy to get lost.

The sun completely set on the mountain and the temperature gradually dropped. Li Rui admired Zhuwen very much. Even if his vision was blocked when night fell, he could accurately find the direction under the moonlight.

In the distance, a dilapidated loess city has appeared. The walls on all sides are riddled with holes, and some have even collapsed. The city gates have long since rotted and collapsed, leaving only holes.

"This used to be the transit point from Zhangye Prefecture to Nuanyang Prefecture."

Zhu Wen, who had been silent all the way, finally said, "But it was also swallowed up by the dry soil. Now there are many ghosts entrenched inside, so don't go deep easily."

What he is most worried about now is that this group of people only has a few people, but they still have to enter the city.

Li Rui asked: "In other words, this place is not considered the hinterland of Nuanyang Prefecture?"

"Of course not, this is just the edge."

Li Rui nodded and said, "Then we won't go into the city."

Zhu Wen breathed a sigh of relief, took out a piece of dry food from his arms, broke it open and sent it down with water.

Along the way, his resistance gradually dissipated a lot, because he found that these people were very strong, but they were never willful and would go wherever they were told.

Now, having said that the ghost town is dangerous, let's just not go in. In this way, many dangers that may occur can be avoided. If it continues, maybe we can really leave Nuanyang Prefecture alive.

"Guest, may I ask, what is the purpose of your visit?"

He took the initiative to speak.

Li Rui also noticed the change in the other party's mentality. Along the way, the old demon's initiative was mostly just to give directions. Now he finally took the initiative to ask about other things, which was considered a proactive gesture of goodwill.

After all, the previous incident of escaping and grabbing the bag still made the relationship between the two parties somewhat awkward.

Li Rui replied: "We are looking for the legendary treasure."

Zhuwen didn't answer. In fact, he had expected it. After all, many people had the same idea over the years. Who in the world doesn’t want that rumored treasure?

A long time ago, the demon clans everywhere would even fight endlessly for the sake of precious money. However, it was only later that everyone discovered that Nuanyang Prefecture was full of dangers and no one could find the treasure, so the treasure hunting activities gradually cooled down.

The old three-legged demon avoided the topic and suddenly talked about the ancient Huangsha City ahead.

"Guest, do you know why this ancient city is so scary?"

Li Rui shook his head and said, "Please speak."

Zhuwen replied: "Nanyang Prefecture has been a barren land since ancient times, but it was not so bad in the past. There are still many city-states in the desert, and this ancient Huangsha City is one of them."

"Back then, this city was controlled by the Sharon tribe. They accepted visitors from all directions, welcomed them and sent them there, making this place an outpost into Nuanyang Prefecture."

"However, the desert is not a good place. There are more travelers coming and going, and the situation is naturally chaotic. However, Huangsha City has always been in order. Why? Because the Sharon tribe has a team of the most elite city guards, thirty demon cultivators, and they are the only ones. The strongest among the ethnic groups are qualified to serve, and anyone whose cultivation level declines or who is injured or sick will be replaced."

"As long as they are here, the city will remain stable, but if there are troublemakers, they will be expelled at the least, and beheaded in public."

"Later, the desert spread, and more ethnic groups from the north moved south. They fought against each other over resource distribution, and Huang Shacheng couldn't stay alone. One day, the Yinxiang tribe in the north sent poison masters to sneak into the city and poison them. There are thirty soldiers from the Sharon clan and a large number of civilians."

It is not difficult to imagine what happened next. It is nothing more than a city that lacks order and becomes chaotic, and the residents lose their coat. As the desertification process deepens, it eventually turns into a ghost town with only the undead wandering around.

Li Rui said that he understood the truth.

"But old man, why are you talking about this?"

Zhu Wen paused for a moment: "What I want to say is that the souls of the thirty soldiers in the city are still lingering. Anyone who enters there will be dead or alive, and must not get close."

Li Rui waved his hand a little impatiently, thinking that he had just said he wouldn't go in. This old man was very verbose.

Zhu Wen hasn't finished speaking yet: "In addition, I also want to say that the ethnic groups deep in the desert are more ferocious than the Sharon tribe in Huangsha City. Whether they are still surviving or have transformed into fierce ghosts, None of them should be underestimated. If our guests want to find that valuable treasure, they may have to do their best."

Li Rui nodded: "I understand."

Seeing his calm look, Zhu Wen thought that he might not be truly aware of the dangers involved. However, if he goes a little further and encounters some dangers in the desert, he should know how powerful they are. As long as you can change your mind by then, it's not too late.

The group took a short rest and then continued moving forward, slightly bypassing the direction of Huangsha City.

The one Li Rui needed to find was most likely the final trophy of the legendary weapon. He had to go deep into Nuanyang State first, and he didn't want to waste time.

However, when they walked around to the side of Huangsha Ancient City, the closest place, something unexpected happened.

First there was a whistle, and a group of monsters riding some kind of horse-like and ox-like mounts came out from behind the sand dunes and blocked the way.

Then, there were more noises, and more demon cavalry came out of Huangsha Ancient City, forming a circle to surround Li Rui and others.

Zhu Wen looked very nervous, looking left and right warily.

"This, this is, Sand Bandit."

After a cursory inspection, he found that there were at least hundreds of enemies, a large number.

His expression was ugly, because he had just discovered that this group of demon sand pirates came from Huangsha Ancient City.

"Guest, I don't know this group of sand bandits, but they were able to stay overnight in the ancient city. That means they have eliminated the undead souls of the Sharon tribe in the ancient city. We, we are probably going to die here."
