As they rowed the boat together, Su Qing couldn't help but complain, "You're really useless. You can't even do this simple thing right. What's the point of me keeping you around!"
Black Sparrow was so angry she almost jumped into the river. "You killed that boatman and you still have the nerve to blame me? Have you no shame? It was quite expensive, after all."
Drifting downstream, Su Qing unfolded a map, checked the approximate location, confirmed that they had arrived at their destination, and rowed the boat to shore.
Su Qing opened his mouth and swallowed the boat, then spat out the carriage, and continued driving the carriage forward.
They walked in silence again, until the scene before them turned into a vast expanse of yellow sand.
desert!
It is a recognized dangerous place among the northwestern countries, and is known as one of the two great forests of sunset and twilight.
Legend has it that an ancient kingdom was once buried here.
"Thousands of years ago, the Northwest was unified, and the ruins of the capital of the kingdom that unified this land are buried under this yellow sand."
"That is a real kingdom, and the king of the kingdom is the real king. Those so-called duchies that call themselves kings can only talk big in the northwest. If they dared to call themselves kings in the Chaotic Territory or the center of the continent, they would have been wiped out long ago."
"Every thirty years or so, this desert will be hit by a massive sandstorm. After the sandstorm passes, there will be a month of respite. During this time, the ruins of the kingdom's capital will appear, and countless adventurers will flock here."
"This year marks the 30th anniversary!"
Black Sparrow spoke earnestly, and Su Qing listened thoughtfully.
"Don't take it lightly. It's not just the small fry from the northwestern kingdoms who are coming. People will also come from Chaotic Territory, after all, it's the ruins of a former kingdom."
Seeing that the dragon didn't seem to care much, Black Sparrow couldn't help but remind it.
The northwestern kingdoms are clearly not in the same league as the central continent, yet no country dares to call itself a kingdom, because a basic requirement for a kingdom is to have a titled powerhouse in charge.
In other words, this ruin may contain the legacy of a titled powerhouse.
Su Qing still ignored her, which made Black Sparrow so angry that she wanted to kick the guy's butt hard with her boots.
In fact, when Su Qing expanded her vision to its maximum, she encountered a situation she had never experienced before.
The scene unfolded vividly in his mind, yet he found no trace of the ruins.
There are three possibilities. First, the telescope may have malfunctioned, but the probability is almost zero.
Secondly, the ruins are impossible to see, and they are hidden in the spatial interlayers, so the probability is not high. Although the title is strong, it is not enough to hide an entire capital city.
Third, the ruins are underground!
Although the ability to see a thousand miles is powerful, it also has limitations. The more things one can see through, the more limited the field of vision becomes. One can only look a few hundred meters underground at most.
Of course, there is another possibility: that the ruins are fake. But a thousand-year-old legend that attracts countless adventurers every 30 years, could it really be fake?
Su Qing was quite interested. Although he did not find any ruins, he did find many adventurers, including several gathering points with a large number of people.
Su Qing led the black sparrow to the nearest spot.
The all-seeing eye has already arrived, when will the all-hearing ear appear?
Sometimes you can only see the scene but not hear the sound, which is really disgusting.
What a treasure!
Compared to wealth, Su Qing, whose strength was currently unable to increase rapidly in the short term, was more interested in collecting treasures that could unlock skills.
After all, the skills unlocked by the system are all quite useful right now.
The capitalist's face can be used to attract hatred, and then to kill the other party and seize their property with a clear conscience.
A clairvoyant eye combined with the ability to fly through the clouds—a powerful tool for extortion.
Summoning wind and rain, swordsmanship, and wide-range attack and technical skills are not very popular.
The most practical thing is to have a hidden compartment in your sleeve; you can steal things without anyone being able to catch you red-handed.
Su Qing took stock of her skills and increasingly felt that she was not a good person.
This is all the system's fault. Doesn't it have any proper skills?
Upon arriving at the gathering point, they discovered it was a large tavern, standing amidst the yellow sand, with hundreds of customers coming and going.
Although their clothes and appearances were different, the aura they exuded was quite similar, making it clear that most of them were adventurers.
Stepping into the tavern, a cacophony of noise immediately filled my ears, as if I had suddenly entered a chaotic world.
Everywhere there were sounds of conversation, laughter, and cursing, including some vulgar language, which made Black Sparrow frown.
Su Qing didn't care and went to the front desk of the tavern, where an old man greeted him.
He looked to be in his fifties, and when he laughed, his mustache twitched up and down, which looked rather comical.
"What would you like to order, sir?"
I need some money!
Su Qing's answer was quite straightforward.
The originally lively atmosphere was ruined by his words, making things a little awkward.
The old man with the mustache's smile vanished: "Are you trying to rob me, sir?"
Su Qing immediately denied it: "Don't misunderstand, I'm a legitimate businessman. Let me introduce myself, my name is Chris, I come from Chaotic Territory, and I specialize in buying and selling second-hand gold coins. I buy 95 out of 100 gold coins, but we can discuss it if the quantity is large!"
To say something nonsensical in a serious manner.
The old man's smile returned: "Sir, you are truly humorous. Here is your wine."
"Thank you, many people have praised me like that!"
Su Qing took the wine handed to her by the old man and poured it down her throat.
Five gold coins!
Seeing that the other party had drunk the wine, the old man immediately offered a price, a hint of cunning in his eyes.
Without saying a word, Su Qing spat the wine back into his mouth.
