Origin Chapter 280: Go west

You have to pay attention to your skills when you sneak away. You can't hula and walk in groups. You should go in batches. The secondary ones will go first, and the main ones will go later. The big fool's goal is too big. , first fly north, climb over a hill, then lower the altitude and head west, and then pick up four people and fly low from the valley to the west.

I thought it was clever, but I didn't expect that Wu Qin would catch up soon after going west.

Seeing Wu Qin chasing after him, Wu Zhongyuan felt very embarrassed, and without waiting for Wu Qin to speak, he took the initiative to say, "We are going to go to Gushan for inspection, can you go with Jushan?"

Wu Qin naturally knew that Wu Zhongyuan was lying, but he didn't expose it. Wu Zhongyuan was the leader. Although he was worried about the leader's safety, he couldn't restrict the leader's freedom. He came here not to chase Wu Zhongyuan back, but to report a letter Well, just now, news came from the post that the Bear Clan sent more than a dozen wizards and masters of Ziqi to cross the Dakuang and head north.

After hearing Wu Qin's report, Wu Zhongyuan frowned slightly. Dakuang is the northernmost city of the Bear Clan, and further north is the northern boundary. The Bear Clan must have sent so many Ziqi masters to the northern boundary. do something very important.

After a brief pondering, Wu Zhongyuan nodded to Wu Qin, "I understand, please come back to Jushan."

Wu Qin nodded, took out a prismatic crystal from his arms and handed it to Wu Zhongyuan, "This crystal contains earthly spiritual energy, you can take it with you, you can break it if necessary, I can do it myself. Induction search."

Wu Zhongyuan extended his hand to take it after thanking him. Wu Qin shook his head and went back with a sigh.

"Do you want to go to Northern Xinjiang?" Jiang Nan asked.

Wu Zhongyuan tilted his head in thought, but did not answer immediately.

The old blind man said by the side, "The Beiguan guarded by Xuanwu is located in the northwest of Dakuang, not due north."

Before the old blind man opened his mouth, Wu Zhongyuan was really wondering if there was a problem in Beiguan, and after hearing the old blind man say this, he dispelled his doubts, "Forget it, let them go, I have sent people to the three clans before. , told them the seriousness of the situation, the war is coming, and they should also be trying to strengthen their forces and prepare for the war.”

Wu Zhongyuan is the leader. Since he has made a statement, no one else will say anything. Dasha continues to drive the four to the west. This time, there is no need to worry about Wu Qin chasing after him. He will fly high and low. The airflow is weak, and Dasha's low-altitude flight consumes more energy.

Four of the ten strange things mentioned by the old blind man are located in the west. One of them is a plant called purple sweet potato in a sandbar called Heiyun Valley in the Western Desert. The so-called purple sweet potato is actually a modern The ancestor of potatoes, although potatoes are planted in large quantities in modern times, this plant itself is an alien species, which was not originally available in the Middle Earth.

Few people know that potatoes are the fourth largest food in the world after wheat, rice and corn. This plant has high yield and is the staple food of the poor in many places. Mixed crop sowing, the problem of food is solved.

In addition to the purple flower potato, the remaining three kinds of strange things are all in the abandoned temple in Kunlun Mountain, namely the amethyst statue with no head, two soul stones and war **** grass.

He doesn't know how to use the God of War Grass, and he doesn't know the use of the Soul Stone, but he does need amethyst metal. After returning from Nanhuang, he had dinner with Li Wanzi and others, Intentionally or unintentionally, I asked about the amethyst metal used by the bird family. The amethyst metal used by the bird family has been melted and divided, and the original shape can no longer be seen.

As a result, it is impossible to determine whether the amethyst metal used by the bird tribe is taken from Kunlun Mountain, and it is impossible to determine what the headless statue in the abandoned temple looks like. Go around the abandoned temple in Kunlun Mountains.

When he doesn't ask the old blind man for his opinion, the old blind man does not express his opinion. The old blind man is only responsible for providing clues. According to the old blind man, the abandoned temple is located in the north of Kunlun Mountain, and the Black Cloud Valley is in Kunlun. In the northwest of the mountain, according to the current movement trajectory of everyone, the abandoned temple and the Black Cloud Valley are in a line. If you go to the Black Cloud Valley, you will pass the abandoned temple.

After hesitating for a long time, Wu Zhongyuan was still undecided. After experiencing the accident of Ruoshui Longze, he was much more cautious. He doubted that the abandoned temple was where the Beastmaster was sealed. I was also worried that deliberately avoiding it would miss the opportunity. If it was where the Beastmaster was sealed, after the Beastmaster got rid of his imprisonment, it would not be so easy to think about taking those two things.

Finally, Wu Zhongyuan asked the old blind man for advice, "Sir, should we go to the temple you mentioned?"

The old blind man didn't answer the call immediately, he pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "If you can get that mysterious crystal statue, you can mix it with copper and tin to assemble battle armor for thousands of troops. If you can get the soul stone, then Can connect yin and yang, resist life and death..."

When the old blind man said this, Wu Zhongyuan interrupted him, "What is connecting Yin and Yang and resisting life and death? Please make it clear sir."

"The soul stone is divided into yin and yang stones. The white is yang, and the air is connected to the sky, and the black is yin. ' said the old blind man.

Hearing what the old blind man said, Wu Zhongyuan was very moved, "What if you wear them at the same time?"

"When you can connect yin and yang, and resist life and death." The old blind man said, and then added, "The soul stone is a legendary thing, and no one has ever really owned it. Whether it is as magical as the legend, I don't know. As for the God of War grass..."

Wu Zhongyuan interrupted the old blind man again, "I know what the God of War grass is. Taking this thing is like killing a chicken to get its eggs. If you don't get it, the gentleman just said that we won't go to that ruined temple this time."

The old blind man said, "There must be a vicious thing guarding it, and it is not visible to the naked eye. Even if he has purple energy, he will not dare to go rashly."

"To go or not to go?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"Take chestnuts from the fire," the old blind man said in a deep voice, "the chestnuts are delicious and the fire is also big."

Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly. At this time, there was no such thing as taking chestnuts out of fire. What the old blind man said was just a similar metaphor. The world knows that high profits are often accompanied by high risks. He also understands this truth, but whether it is risk or profit, it seems to be a bit too big.

The old blind man never made a statement about whether to go or not. This also proves that the old blind man is very smart. A really smart person will not easily make up his mind for others. The idea should be left to those who bear the consequences for this matter. , outsiders can only offer advice at best.

Wu Zhongyuan did not ask any further questions, the matter was put on hold for the time being, and then he asked about the situation in the Kunlun Mountains and the specific situation of the Black Cloud Valley.

According to the old blind man, there are indeed strange beasts in the Kunlun Mountains, but they are not many, and they may be well hidden. He did not find them. The Niu tribe is closer to the Kunlun Mountains, and they use some magical herbs and animal alchemy for alchemy, but the Niu tribe never goes into the Kunlun Mountains, at most they only hunt in the periphery.

Black Cloud Valley is located in the northwest of Kunlun Mountains, in a desert of quicksand. The quicksand desert mentioned by the old blind man should be the Taklimakan Desert in later generations, which is a desert between Kunlun Mountains, Tianshan Mountains and Altun Mountains. , It is not clear what the situation is now, but in modern times, this desert has more than 300,000 square kilometers, almost one-third of the total land area.

It is also a desert. Desert and desert are also different. The Taklimakan Desert is a mobile desert. The so-called mobile desert is a desert that can run. Under the action, there will be many huge pyramid-shaped sand dunes accumulated in the desert. Some of these dunes can be as high as three or four hundred meters, that is, as high as a dozen floors.

This kind of desert is the most dangerous of the deserts. Once it encounters a big storm, there is nowhere to run. In addition, since the desert will shift with the direction of the wind, the reference object is not easy to determine. To find a small oasis with a radius of only two miles in a large desert of more than 300,000 square kilometers is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Ask the old blind man if he can find Heiyungu. The old blind man replied that he could, but he couldn't. He was probably not sure, so Wu Zhongyuan asked him how much he was sure, and the old blind man answered 80 percent.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan frowning, Jiang Nan and the second child looked at him suspiciously. In their opinion, they were 80% sure that they could go and look for him.

Wu Zhongyuan tilted his head and glanced at the two. Jiang Nan had never been in a desert before, and his second child had never been to a desert before. They didn't know how dangerous this kind of quicksand desert was. In fact, it wasn't just them, even modern people, no Those who study geography and archaeology don’t have much understanding of the Taklimakan Desert, but the world knows Pengjiamu and Lop Nur. Lop Nur is in the Taklimakan Desert, but it is on the eastern edge of the desert, and the Black Cloud Valley mentioned by the old blind man is in the desert. hinterland. Going to Lop Nur is like playing at the beach, and going to Black Cloud Valley is no different from running to the middle of the sea.

In order to find a few potatoes and risking their lives to go to the quicksand desert, it sounds like a big joke to modern people, but now there is no such plant in the Middle Earth, not even wild ones. If you want, only Can go to the Black Cloud Valley.

After pondering for a long time, he finally decided to take a risk. The main reason why he made up his mind to go to the Black Cloud Valley was that Dasha helped him. Dasha is huge and can hold his ground even in the face of a big storm. Protection, everyone will not be blown away by strong winds, and will not be buried by quicksand. The most important thing is that Dasha is an insect, and it does not require much water. Also resistant to tossing.

Although everyone came out this time for business, they also took it with them for a walk. In modern times, Wu Zhongyuan never traveled far, and he didn't have the opportunity to visit the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. There are trees, mountains and rivers, and there is not much to see. Fortunately, there are many wild animals at this time, and many of them are extinct in modern times, so they are only used for visiting the zoo.

Everyone is moving in the northwest direction. Most of the time they are in the sky of the cattle tribe. Since they slipped out, the dry food is not prepared. Fortunately, Jiang Nan is there, and before leaving the Middle Earth, they can get the most from the cattle tribe. In the west, Yuancheng Arashiyama rested for one night and supplemented his provisions.

Dasha is a good employee, diligent and hardworking, but a good employee is not without faults. As soon as the sun goes down, he will not leave. This is the dinner time set by Wu Zhongyuan, Dasha does not understand At any time, it eats by looking at the sun, and as soon as the sun sets, it knows it's time to eat.

If Dasha is really an employee, he must be the one who was tricked to death by the boss. It's very easy to coax him. Send your thoughts, just stop eating it, and eat it when you go to the place, Dasha It was full of joy and continued on its way. When it arrived at the Arashiyama boundary, it was also dark. It even forgot about eating and lay on its stomach.

The land in Lanshan is barren. The people here are less cultivated, mostly livestock, and there are many cattle and horses. Wu Zhongyuan is a good boss. He communicated with Jiang Nan and sent Dasha directly to the cattle pen.

After dinner, the two did not rush to rest, but packed their things and prepared to go out of the city. The Xiguan guarded by the White Tiger is in the mountains west of Lanshan, and it is necessary to go to the pier...
