Chapter 34 Moya Yanyan

The smoke rises straight from the desert, and the sun sets over the long river.

After traveling for more than ten days and crossing several countries, they finally arrived at the shortcut to the Lei Ze area - the Moya Desert!

Moyayanyan is an ancient dialect of the local residents, meaning "sea of ​​fire of death".

The Great Desert of Death and Fire! Bai Donglin followed the local customs, wearing a white gauze robe and a gauze wrapped around his head.

In fact, he can even do the butterfly stroke in the lava pool, so of course he is not afraid of the high temperature, he just doesn't want to be too conspicuous.

The climate here is hot all year round, and the local people wear cool clothes, especially women, who show off their slim waists, slender arms, and healthy wheat-colored skin, full of Loulan exotic style! In this relatively conservative world, it is very rare for women to dress so boldly.

He was currently wandering around the city closest to the Moa Desert. He needed to collect information, all the information about this desert.

He never fights a battle without confidence. If he rushes in rashly, the consequences may not be good.

This city is far less prosperous than cities like Linjiang Yinshe, simply because the environment here is too harsh and the architectural style is very rough. The perennial sandstorms have destroyed all exquisite and beautiful things, leaving only practical objects.

There are not many people here, but the proportion of monks is extremely high. There is no meaning for ordinary people to live here as the natural resources are too poor. The mortals who stay here mainly work in the service industry, serving the monks.

As for why there are so many monks here, we still need to explore further.

Bai Donglin wandered around and headed for the largest restaurant in the city to inquire for information. This kind of place with many people and a lot of gossip was the best.

I walked into a restaurant called "Jinsha", found a seat in the lobby and sat down at random, then called the waiter.

"Sir, what would you like to eat?"

"Give me some of your specialties and a bottle of good wine!"

"Okay! Sir, please wait a moment!"

When traveling, Bai Donglin will never treat himself badly. Tasting some exotic food is also a bit of fun on the boring journey.

Soon the wine and food came up. I tasted them and they were delicious. Due to the hot climate here, the dishes were relatively light. The fruit wine called "thorny jujube wine" was not strong, with a light fruity aroma, and was cool and delicious.

While drinking, he pricked up his ears. With his current hearing ability, he could hear all the conversations in the hall as long as they were not transmitted by secret methods.

In less than the time it took to finish a meal, he understood a lot of things and got answers to some of his confusions.

Why are there so many monks here? This has to do with the history of the formation of the Moya Desert.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago, there was no big desert here at all. Instead, it was a part of the Lei Ze Region. It was prosperous and had many sects based here.

According to legend, hundreds of thousands of years ago, gods and men fought in the sky.

A fire god was beheaded in the sky. His huge body fell to this place and turned into a raging flame that burned for thousands of miles. The flame could not be extinguished by water and it burned for nine full years before it was extinguished.

The vast and prosperous land was burned into a desert, which is now the Moa Desert!

Countless sects were buried here, and many monks here went into the desert to look for treasures! Indeed, people have found ancient treasures in the desert all year round, and some have soared into the sky, so over the years, it has always inspired many monks to continue to go forward.

It is said that there are shocking secrets hidden in this desert, which are related to the gods and men who were killed in the past. If someone breaks into it by chance, as long as he does not die, he will get amazing fortune!

There are many dangers in this desert, including the harsh environment, cruel bandits, ferocious beasts, and some killing arrays left by some sects! It can be said that there are many dangers. If you run around without any experience, getting lost is enough to make you suffer.

Bai Donglin frowned slightly. He was not interested in any shabby treasures that were hundreds of thousands of years old. He just wanted to cross the desert. But for a complete newcomer like him, it was certain that he would get lost the first time he went in.

It seems that I can't go on the road alone, I have to find a tour guide. After finishing the wine in the glass, Bai Donglin paid the bill and left.

Leaving the restaurant, I walked straight to the square of the city. From the news I just received, many monks would recruit soldiers and horses in the square and form teams to go to the desert to search for treasure! After all, only a few dared to be lone rangers. Facing the many dangers in the desert, of course, there is strength in numbers.

All you have to do is find a reliable team and blend into them to achieve your goal of crossing the desert.

Central square.

"The Gale Treasure Hunting Team is hiring! Come and take a look!"

"The Yellow Sand Squad is urgently looking for a formation master!"

"Come on! Little brother, come and have a look!"

There were many monks in the square, and noisy shouts were heard one after another. Bai Donglin walked and stopped, observing the various treasure hunting teams, and felt that these monks were too exaggerated and a little unreliable.

When I walked to the center of the square, my eyes were drawn to a group of onlookers. I squeezed in and saw a piece of white cloth with a few large characters written on it: "Looking for fellow Taoists heading to Lei Ze Territory."

An old man in gray stood under the white cloth, stroking his beard and looking at everyone with a smile, without saying a word.

No wonder it attracted so many people, 99% of the people who came to this desert were treasure hunters. Few people would choose to cross the Moya Desert to the Lei Ze Domain, although it could save a lot of time, but compared with the dangers they would face, it was not worth it.

They would rather spend ten times more time taking a longer route, at least it is much safer. Time is worthless to most people.

Bai Donglin's eyes lit up. This was suitable for him. He could observe this person for a while to see if he was reliable.

The crowd gradually dispersed. They all came to look for treasures, so the important thing was to quickly find a treasure hunting team that suited them.

After waiting for half an hour, the old man finally recruited three people, two men and one woman, all of whom were masters of the Yuantai realm. Bai Donglin, who was observing secretly, felt that the old man was quite reliable and not just a sham.

I didn't have much choice, so I walked up to the old man, clasped my hands and said:

"My fellow Daoist, I am also going to the Lei Ze Region. Do you have any requests?"

Among cultivators, age is not considered important, only cultivation level is considered. Those with similar cultivation levels call each other fellow Taoists.

The old man looked Bai Donglin up and down. He had an extraordinary temperament and a calm aura. He should be a master. He smiled and said:

"The desert is extremely dangerous. What matters most is strength. Daoist friend, you only need to show us your skills, and I will make the decision!"

Bai Donglin nodded slightly and agreed with this method, so he started to practice the Seven Injury Fist Technique. He clenched his right fist, a powerful aura rose up, sand and dust swirled around him, and he was about to punch out.

"Stop, stop, stop! No need to try, you can join in!"

The old man's forehead was slightly sweaty, and he was overwhelmed by a strong sense of crisis. He was afraid that this punch would cost him half his life!

Although this man's moves were a bit strange, his strength was real and could not be faked, so he quickly stopped Bai Donglin from punching.

Upon hearing this, Bai Donglin calmed down his blood and stopped attacking.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, gathered the four people together, and said, "When crossing the desert, it is the quality of people that matters, not the quantity. With the four Taoist friends joining us, our journey will definitely be smooth."

"Now please go back and prepare the supplies needed in the desert. We will gather at the city gate tomorrow morning!"

The other two men were actually rare twins. Their auras were vaguely connected, and they should be good at combined attacking techniques.

The other woman was dressed in a black robe and had a veil on her face, so her appearance could not be seen clearly. However, she exuded a cold aura and it was obvious that she was not an ordinary person.

This old man is not simple either. He has a sharp eye and the people he recruits are not simple either.

The four of them agreed and left.

Bai Donglin went directly to the largest market to purchase supplies, first of all a large amount of clean water, tents, and various small tools.

I also bought a bunch of food. In fact, once you have cultivated your Qi to the Yuantai stage, you can practice fasting and use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to maintain your body functions.

However, many cultivators do not want to give up their desires for food and drink. After all, there is no saying that one must be pure-hearted and free from desires when cultivating immortals. Zi Xiaoling is a good example.

Although he himself could not absorb spiritual energy, he would not starve to death. There was no need for him to suffer that. He was not a masochist, so he bought a lot of food.

Bai Donglin also bought a special mount, the sand scorpion beast, which is a creature that lives in the desert and has been domesticated over countless years as a means of transportation.

It is extremely good at running in the desert, has a fast speed, is drought-resistant, and has many advantages. Almost every monk who enters the desert has one.

After preparing all the necessary supplies, Bai Donglin found a restaurant, had a good meal, and then went to sleep and rest.

Just wait until tomorrow morning and head to the scorching Moa Desert.
