Enter the courtyard and sit down at the stone table.
Motu took out three clay bowls from the house.
Taoist Wu Liang also wisely opened the jar of Guyang Shaojiu.
This is the unique shochu of Guyang City. It has a high alcohol content and a strong aroma, just like this wild desert, and is extremely hot.
boom!
Three loess clay bowls collided together.
Motu drank it all in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said with emotion: "It's been a long time since I drank this Guyang Shaojiu, and it's still so strong."
"Hey, if you, old man, want to drink, that's not a casual matter."
Taoist Wu Liang said with a shy face.
"Okay, I know exactly who you are, you damn fat guy, and you don't care about me." Motu poured himself another bowl of wine.
Looking at Zhou You, he was surprised and said: "This little brother has a handsome appearance, broad eyebrows, and cold eyes. He looks like a hero at first glance. How come he is with this fat Taoist priest?"
Wu Liang was unhappy when he heard this: "Old man Mo, is it bad to hang out with me?"
"It's not bad at all. You, the fat Taoist priest, do have some abilities, but you just like to betray your teammates when things happen." Motu seemed to know Wu Liang very well.
It seems that he also suffered a loss at the hands of Taoist Wu Liang.
"Oh, that's all in the past. Now I'm too righteous and will never do such a thing." Taoist Wu Liang said, patting his chest.
"Okay, fat man, stop pretending." Zhou You scolded with a smile, explaining his purpose.
"Senior, we came here to see you this time because we want you to draw a map of the Western Desert with your own hands.... Wu Liang and I want to enter the Western Desert to explore the ruins."
"This is basically why you find a bad old man like me."
Motu was not surprised, but he still said in a deep voice: "But before that, I hope you will be mentally prepared."
"The Western Desert has not been very peaceful recently. Teams have mysteriously disappeared one after another. Among them are many innate masters, and even the masters of the heaven and human realm are trapped in it."
Taoist Wu Liang was suddenly shocked: "Old man Mo, why is it that the West Desert is not peaceful?"
"There has always been an ancient legend in the Western Desert."
"Legend has it that in ancient times, many gods and demons fell in the Western Desert. Before their death, these gods and demons issued extremely vicious curses, turning this land into a cursed place."
"Every once in a while, the power of the curse will break out."
"The Western Desert will become a true death zone."
Motu has lived in Guyang City all his life, so he is naturally familiar with the various legends here.
"That's not right... If the power of the curse broke out in the Western Desert, there would be far fewer people. Why are there still so many people in Guyang City now?" Taoist Wu Liang frowned.
"Because after the power of the curse breaks out, many ruins buried under the yellow sand will emerge..."
"This situation will still attract a large number of wanderers who are not afraid of death, hoping to find priceless treasures."
Motu didn't hide anything, "I've said everything that needs to be said, but you still decide whether to go or not?"
"Go!" Zhou You said decisively.
If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs.
If we retreat at the slightest danger, how will we cope with the catastrophe that will break out in the early Yuan Dynasty soon?
What's more, huge risks sometimes also represent huge gains.
Taoist priest Wu Liang is also a very bold person. He even dares to make plans for the tomb of the ancient gods, let alone the curse of gods and demons.
Seeing that these two people were so determined, Motu didn't try to persuade them.
After all, the fat Taoist priest is quite capable.
On the surface, Zhou You is also a heroic man.
This kind of person will not back down just because of a few words of advice.
He took out a map from the room.
"This is the hard work of most of my life, twenty low-grade spiritual stones."
The price is not expensive.
When you were traveling around the Yuanchen sect as a true disciple, you also saved some spiritual stones, and neatly gave away twenty spiritual stones.
Afterwards, Taoist Wu Liang and Mo Tu were also chatting about past events and drinking Guyang Shaojiu, which was quite sad.
Not long after, someone came to the door again.
Zhou You and Taoist Wu Liang said their goodbyes knowingly.
On Guyangcheng Street.
After Zhou You and Taoist Wu Liang took a few glances at the map of the Western Desert.
laugh!
In an instant, it turned into ashes in Zhou You's hands.
The material of this map is just ordinary paper, so it is difficult to save.
For Zhou You and Wu Liang, it is enough to keep it in their minds, and there is no need to carry it with them, which would be cumbersome.
"Damn Fatty, I found the map too. When should we set off?"
Zhou You asked calmly.
"According to my original plan, I must leave now."
"But after hearing Old Man Mo say that the power of the curse has broken out in the Western Desert, I think it's better to wait a few days to see if anyone has returned from the Western Desert, and let's get some information before we talk."
There is a reason why Taoist Wu Liang has been in the tomb robbing business for so long.
Zhou You thought about it for a while and agreed.
After all, it is not a good thing to enter this land of the Western Desert so recklessly.
Within the next three days.
Zhou You and Taoist priest Wu Liang continued to collect information in Guyang City.
It was found that just as Motu said, the Western Desert has indeed become extremely dangerous recently. Many teams disappeared after entering the Western Desert, and not even the bones were found.
But on the third day.
A team returns from the Western Desert.
Along with the return, there is also a golden shield!
It is said that this team found this shield in a ruins of gods and demons. After going through many hardships and losing half of the team members, they finally brought it out of the ruins.
Immediately, this shield was purchased directly by a mysterious person for 10,000 high-grade spiritual stones.
This time, Guyang City was completely excited.
The people who can come to Guyang City are all people who lick blood from their swords, and they couldn't sit still after hearing this news.
Countless wanderers began to form gangs and headed towards the depths of the Western Desert.
Find wealth in danger!
On the roof of the inn.
Zhou You and Wu Liang looked at the teams setting off one after another with strange expressions.
"Damn Fatty, why do I feel like this is so weird?" Zhou You said softly.
Wu Liang also echoed: "I also find it a bit strange. No one has ever seen this so-called golden shield, and then it was bought for 10,000 high-grade spiritual stones."
"I even suspect that this golden shield has never existed. It's all rumors."
Zhou You nodded slightly, he also had the same doubt in his heart.
However, their foundation in Guyang City is too shallow and they cannot learn more inside information.
"Then what should we say?" Taoist Wu Liang asked in a deep voice.
"We've been waiting for three days. There's no point in waiting any longer." Zhou You looked into the distance.
"We have already broken through the Tomb of the Ancient God, let alone this Western Desert?"
"Then let's go! Master Dao, I won't come back unless I get a few artifacts this time!"
Taoist Wu Liang also laughed.
He had not received any useful information in the past three days, and even he felt that his time was wasted.
The two of them jumped off the inn and walked towards the west city gate.
Exiting the West City Gate means officially entering the cursed land of the Western Desert!
