The terrain in Mobei is extremely dangerous. As the seasons change, living creatures such as poisonous scorpions and snakes will change their living habits and migrate accordingly.In the depths of Mobei, there will be quicksand that can flow, and the surroundings are endless and vast, without any markers that can be used to remember the direction.

Except for the residents who have lived in the local area for more than ten years, any outsider who recklessly breaks into the depths of Mobei will only have a dead end.

Gu Xiaoyong's camels and chariots walked slowly on the deserted Gobi desert for three days and three nights, and only then did they see some human smoke and living things in the distance.

An inn that has been baptized by wind and sand erosion for a long time stands in the yellow sand. The banner cloth in front of the inn is so tattered that the original appearance cannot be seen, only the words "Longsha Inn" can be vaguely seen.The banner cloth swayed slightly in the wind, carrying an air of depression and desolation.

The inn is surrounded by thick walls made of yellow sand. It seems that after a long period of wind and sand erosion, the wall skin has fallen off a lot, and the east is bald.

There are only a few people coming and going, mostly travelers and merchants with goods.Everyone wrapped themselves up tightly, only showing a pair of round eyes, and looked at the people around vigilantly, for fear that they would become prey of others at night, robbing their wealth and life.

Gu Xiaoyong led the clanging camels slowly towards the inn, and a man who looked like a waiter hurried up to him, took the rein in his hand graciously, and said with a smile: "Guests should stay in the inn if they are top-notch." ah?"

"Stay in the hotel." Gu Xiaoyong replied, "Please help feed the camels, there is still a long way to go."

"Naturally, let me tell you, guest officer, that the grain and grass in our inn are the best high-quality grass." The waiter opened his mouth and said, "It was transported from the Western Regions, and the hardships and dangers... ..."

The waiter made a gesture asking for money: "You understand."

Gu Xiaoyong smiled, hooked the waiter's neck, and whispered: "I have been to your place before, if I remember correctly, there are indeed a bunch of those grains from the Western Regions, and they are high-quality goods."

"What about the other pile..." Gu Xiaoyong squinted his eyes, "It's moldy, and there are even a lot of poisonous insects in it, right?"

The waiter in the store obviously paused, and then said with a sneer: "Guest officer, you are joking, where can I find those moldy grains and grasses for you in such a hot place? Not to mention there are poisonous insects and pests."

"It's not certain." Gu Xiaoyong shook his head, "Maybe one day you will receive a group of rich merchants, and then take advantage of the money, kill them and throw them into the cellar casually, and finally throw a pile of hay in there." How about hiding the body?"

No matter how hot the desert is, the cellar that has not seen the sun for a long time will become gloomy and cold, and the piled up corpses will make the dry grass and food moldy and wormy?

The waiter in the store looked a little ugly, and said reluctantly: "Then what do you want, guest officer?"

"As for the money, I will give it as usual." Gu Xiaoyong took out a bag of silver from his arms, and said with a smile, "It's just that my camels are delicate, so remember to give me some better food and water."

The waiter in the shop took the heavy bag of silver with both hands, weighed it up and down, then smiled heartily, and said respectfully: "That's natural, that's natural."

"Also, all your paragraphs are not enough for me to see." Gu Xiaoyong lazily hooked the waiter's neck, and said in a loose and casual tone, "My friend and I like to be quiet, so you don't have to come over to bother us at night."

"Swords don't have eyes, and if you accidentally lose your head, how pitiful is that?"

The waiter in the shop lowered his head, not sure if he listened.He just kept agreeing, his tone was vague and unclear, and he seemed to be obedient.

Gu Xiaoyong didn't bother to care about him anymore, turned around and walked towards Yu Xueyuan, smiling while walking: "It's done."

The tone is full of self-satisfaction and pride.

Yu Xueyuan loved his kitten-like expression so much, he frowned when he heard the words, and said warmly: "Have you really been here before?"

"How is it possible, the environment here is so bad." Gu Xiaoyong walked to the back of the wheelchair, and very consciously helped his elder brother Bai push the wheelchair, "I'm sick, so I ran all the way here to suffer."

Although he was standing behind Yu Xueyuan, Yu Xueyuan could imagine the smile on his face and the complacency that could not be concealed when he said this, and almost stared at him expectantly with wide eyes.

Yu Xueyuan then asked kindly: "Then how did you know that their food and grass are divided into two stacks, and how do you know that there are corpses hidden in the cellar here?"

"Guess." Gu Xiaoyong's eyes lit up, and he immediately raised his tail and flicked it back and forth. He pointed to the passing passengers, "There are so many people coming in and out here, but whoever is willing to hand over camels and horses to the waiter in the shop?" There are only two or three, which means that there must be a problem with their food and grass."

"The waiter in the store didn't show any guilt when he spoke. He was sure that even if there were customers who wanted to check the quality of the grain and grass, the problem would not be exposed, so I guess they divided the grain and grass into two piles."

"As for saying that the pile of low-quality grain and grass is moldy and there are poisonous insects and pests on it, it is completely deceiving him." Gu Xiaoyong pushed Yu Xueyuan into the house, "You don't need to say more about the rest, you can guess it yourself, Brother Bai .”

Yu Xueyuan could guess it naturally, he just wanted to see Gu Xiaoyong's kitten-like proud expression wagging his tail, and at this moment his heart softened completely: "Yeah."

The cleanliness in the inn is not as clean as that in the Central Plains, probably because of the tourists coming and going. Almost every table is covered with dust, and you can wipe a very clear trace with your fingertips. kind.

Gu Xiaoyong knew that his elder brother Bai was obsessed with cleanliness, so he pushed him to the side of the table and immediately took a rag to wipe the table, and brought clean water to wash the top and bottom of the table.

The bamboo hat on his head has not been taken off, and this busy movement naturally attracted the attention of many people. A traveler with a strong accent couldn't help reminding: "Little brother, why don't you call me?" The shopkeeper is here to help you clean the table? Aren't you tired from busy work?"

Gu Xiaoyong paused when he wiped the table: "Oh, you mean those guys?"

"I just saw that they were busy transporting corpses in the backyard, so I didn't bother them."

As soon as these words came out, everything was silent.

The air was almost frozen, and everyone's eyes widened, staring at Gu Xiaoyong's movements stiffly.

The knight-errant just now couldn't help asking again: "...you mean, a corpse?"

Gu Xiaoyong nodded casually, threw the used rag on the counter beside him, and said with a smile: "Yes, there is probably a whole sheep banquet tonight, and there are all sheep carcasses."

Everyone: "..."

A grumpy person immediately slapped the table down, kicking up a cloud of dust, he stood up and said angrily: "Damn, are you kidding me?!"

"You didn't ask me about the animal's dead body." Gu Xiaoyong shrugged his shoulders, not at all afraid, "If you think about it, blame me?"

In fact, it's no wonder that these people are so nervous. They all came here with a certain purpose, and they probably encountered a lot of things along the way.In addition, there is only such an inn in the Gobi Desert, who knows what ghosts and monsters live in it.

In fact, Gu Xiaoyong was right, presumably it was his words that woke up the waiter. When he entered the backyard, the waiter was instructing several fierce and burly men to carry something from the cellar.Gu Xiaoyong saw a hand with corpse spots exposed from a distance, so he didn't bother them, and went to fetch water to wipe the table by himself.

Every place has its own rules of survival. This unscrupulous store has survived for so long in such a dangerous environment. It can only be said that they have their own communication channels and background.And even though they killed someone, who knows whether they killed a good person or a bad person?It can only be blamed that those who were killed were too weak, so weak that no one was willing to give them justice.

If Xiao Yunchi was around... Maybe he would take care of those big black eyes.

Gu Xiaoyong chuckled lightly, shook his head and sighed again.

He was really worried about that child.

The atmosphere in the inn condensed for a long time, and then slowly became active, but everyone present had more or less increased their vigilance, and kept their weapons within reach at any time.

What Gu Xiaoyong said just now was actually a secret reminder to many people, even though he later used the sheep's corpse as an excuse to ease the atmosphere.But there are only a few fools in the world after all, and life is the greatest in the world, otherwise people would have their heads picked off for no reason, and they would die without knowing how.

A few more passengers came later, they seemed to be in the same group, the leader was a middle-aged man in gray clothes with a hostile look all over his body, the knife in his hand was stained with a lot of blood, far away You can smell the blood and evil spirits on it from a distance.

The middle-aged man was accompanied by an extremely beautiful woman. Even in this kind of place full of yellow sand, she was only wrapped in a red gauze skirt, barely covering the place that should be covered. , revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin.

It is also red, and Ji Yaoyang, the daughter of the leader of the Demon Cult, looks heroic, warm and stunning when she wears it.This woman wore a strong secular atmosphere, the yellow sand all over the sky did not touch her, but her body was covered with dust that could not be washed off.

The middle-aged man entered the inn, scanned around, and found that only Gu Xiaoyong's table was clean.He winked at the subordinate behind him, and the subordinate nodded and walked over, his tone was not very polite: "Hey, you guys!"

Gu Xiaoyong raised his head: "Huh?"

"Give us the position, or you will die!"
