Coming out of the forest area, Yun Xi walked towards the market town.
It was getting late at this time, the setting sun hung in the sky, and the moon loomed from the clouds.
The sand was still hot after being exposed to the sun all day, but the surrounding air was no longer as hot as it was at noon. A gust of wind blew from the south, already giving it a slight chill.
After staying in this world for a week, Yun Xi barely understood the environment here.
The daytime here is very hot. Although it is not as exaggerated as the Tianshen Continent, it is definitely higher than the normal desert temperature.
More importantly, the situation in Tianshen Continent mainly lies in the changeable weather. There may be two suns hanging in the sky during the day, and at night, heavy velvet snow falls from the sky. The changes in the environment before and after are extremely exaggerated.
Therefore, for the residents of Tianshen Continent, food is not actually very scarce. What they lack mainly is medicine. It is difficult for ordinary people to withstand such changeable and extreme weather.
As for the Wangshen River Basin, Yun Xi has been walking in this ghost place for so many days without seeing a drop of rain.
In such an environment, water has become a scarce commodity. It is no wonder that only 8 million people live in such a large continent. With the materials here, I am afraid that not many people can be fed.
Thinking of the several tanks of water she saw in the earthen yard at noon, Yun Xi guessed that they must be the man's water consumption for a long period of time.
Thinking about this, Yun Xi came to an oasis. She lowered her head and saw the man-made path on the ground, and walked into the oasis along the road.
Walking into the oasis, under the shade of the surrounding trees, the temperature dropped a lot. By midnight, this desert would be surprisingly cold. Maybe the next morning, there would be a thin layer of frost on the leaves of these trees.
Yun Xi raised her head and looked towards the top. The trees planted in the oasis were all trees she didn't recognize. However, these trees had some fist-sized fruits with green-black skin, which didn't look good.
Yun Xi guessed that this should be some kind of fruit.
Without reaching out to pick it, Yun Xi continued walking forward. When passing through the middle of the oasis, she saw a small thatched hut. Outside the thatched hut, there was a man lying on the grass, with his hands behind his head and his legs crossed.
A pair of eyes looks to the sky.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the man turned his head and looked over, seeing a plain-looking woman with wheat-colored skin carrying a baggage, covered in travel.
In the past, when Yun Xi disguised herself, she usually would not change herself to be too mediocre. After all, everyone has a love for beauty, and she was no exception.
But now she is in the enemy camp, and the key is not attracting attention.
Sure enough, when the man saw her, apart from being a little surprised in his eyes, he didn't pay much attention. He turned his head and looked behind Yun Xi, to be precise in the direction where Yun Xi came from, and asked: "Xiwangque
Coming?"
Yun Xi nodded and whispered: "Yes."
The desert that the girl teleported Yun Xi to is called the Deng Tiao Desert. There are many market towns around the Deng Tiao Desert. The market town where Yun Xi has arrived now is named Xiaowei Gu. And Xiwangque,
It is the closest one to here among the surrounding market towns in the same desert.
Although Xiwangque is named after the homophonic sound of "hope", it is an area where there is really no hope. The water source there is very scarce, there are not many oases, and there is not much vegetation.
People living there are under great pressure to survive, so many people have chosen to leave their hometowns and find new places to survive. Xiaoweigu is relatively close to Xiwangque, so naturally there will be more Xiwangque.
people.
This information was all obtained by Yi Meng from the memory of the man who took a nap. That man came from Xiwangque.
The man glanced at the heavy-looking baggage behind Yun Xi, then looked at her thin body and dusty appearance, and said helplessly: "Go to the second shop in the center of the market town, the boss there may be able to
Let me introduce you to some work or something."
Yun Xi's eyes lit up and she said gratefully: "Thank you."
So he quickened his pace and left.
"Hello!"
Before she had walked a few steps, Yun Xi heard the man's call again. She turned around and saw two green fruits flying over.
She caught it quickly.
"Quench your thirst a little, your lips are turning white."
"Thanks."
Yun Xi said sincerely, then left with two fruits.
The man sighed softly and continued to lie down and look at the sky.
Leaving this oasis, Yi Meng's voice sounded in Yun Xi's mind.
"This guy is so kind! He actually gave you some fruit to eat."
Yun Xi lowered his head and looked at the fruit in his hand, and said with a smile: "If I let them know about my relationship with Master Tian, ​​I'm afraid they would want to cut me into pieces. What's the name of this thing?"
"Sand-glazed fruit, open the outer shell and eat the inside."
Yun Xi opened the sand-glazed fruit according to Yi Meng's instructions. Under the green shell was a piece of white round fruit flesh.
Yun Xi took a bite, chewed a few times, swallowed the pulp, and then stuck out her tongue.
"It feels a bit astringent!"
"As long as you can eat it, you are so picky." Yimeng said with gloating.
Although the fruit didn't taste very good, it was out of kindness, so Yun Xi still ate the rest of the fruit.
After eating, she said to Yimeng: "I really have to ask you in advance next time. From now on, you will be my know-how in the Wangshen River Basin."
"Ha! You're dreaming of your spring and autumn dream!"
Yun Xi can also obtain other people's memories through soul searching, but even for ordinary people, experiencing soul searching is not completely without impact. It is just that it will be much smaller than that of spiritual cultivators, and the other party will feel the process of soul searching.
of.
In contrast, Yi Meng's dreaming method is different.
By entering a person's dream, she reinterprets that person's life experience, and she watches everything like a bystander.
It is completely harmless to the parties involved, and they are not even aware of it.
After all, who would have thought that someone would read through his memory just because he had a dream while sleeping?
After eating the fruit, Yun Xi speeded up her journey.
More and more people were met along the way. After all, there were only a few people like that man who would take the initiative to ask Yun Xi when they saw her. Most people still looked at her, but did not approach her.
And this was exactly the reaction Yun Xi expected.
After walking for more than half an hour, the sun completely set, and as dusk fell, Yun Xi finally passed through the oases and arrived at the center of the market town.
Probably because the temperature was relatively suitable at this time, many people in the market town came out to take a walk in the cold wind.
Yun Xi walked through these people with her head slightly lowered, but in fact her spiritual sense was carefully observing her surroundings.
There is no electricity here, but because of the strong spiritual power, luminous spiritual crystals do not seem to be scarce here. Many houses have lanterns hanging outside, and the lanterns contain small crystals.
"Dog! How dare you touch the leftovers that I've eaten? That's for dogs! Are you a dog? Bark twice for me to hear!"
When passing the entrance of an alley, Yun Xi suddenly heard some noises coming from the alley. She turned around and saw in the corner of the alley, a young man dressed obviously different from the others and two domestic servants.
Beating a little boy.
The little boy squatted on the ground holding his head, not daring to resist.
Yun Xi didn't help, she just flicked her fingers, and the money in the wallet on the young master's waist instantly appeared in her own hand.
Yun Xi held the money, looked at it, and clicked her tongue. He was worthy of being a child of a rich family. He was indeed rich.
Continuing to walk forward, after several inquiries along the way, Yun Xi also found the second shop that the man had mentioned before.
This second shop is actually a tavern, but from the looks of it, it probably also handles some other tasks.
When Yun Xi walked in, she could see some people sitting inside, holding large bowls in their hands and drinking heavily.
It is a place where water is scarce, but wine is available. For Yun Xi, who doesn't drink much, this is really a rare thing.
"Hello, I'd like to find a job."
Yun Xi walked to the counter and said to the bearded man.
The bearded man raised his head and glanced at her: "Where did you come from? What's your name?"
"He's from Xiwangque, his name is... Gu Ting."
Yun Xi said.
This name was taken from Gu Qingxian and You Tingjing, and she was not the only one who came here. Although she knew that the possibility was very small, she still hoped that one day if those two people heard this name, they would think of her.
When the bearded man heard that Yun Xi was from Xiwangque, his eyes lit up.
To be continued...
