After coming out of the government office, Song Mu saw that it was getting late, so he found a place to stay in the city.
In this big city in southern Yunnan, although there is a curfew at night, the streets are still lively. Song Mu sat down in an inn, eating and looking out the window.
The setting sun has long been swallowed up by the mountains, and the sky is covered in darkness. Only the last trace of bright red remains in it, vaguely shining on the world.
Song Mu looked at this situation at the moment, but his heart was full of mixed emotions.
During this trip to southern Yunnan, Song Mu could really see the demon's actions since the declaration of war. This was already an extraordinary method, and Song Mu could also foresee that in the not-too-distant future, the demon's attack methods would
The Wen Dynasty brought unexpected impacts.
But in this, I still can't do much.
This always made Song Mu feel uncomfortable, but at this moment he could only sigh. At this time, Ji Zezhu also asked Song Mu in his heart.
"What are your future plans?"
Song Mu raised his head and glanced around, then responded calmly.
"Let's go look everywhere, look for treasures in the world, and take a chance on promotion opportunities."
"It would be better if we could disrupt this demon's layout."
…
Song Mu embarked on the journey again, this time, Song Mu's goals were even more
For this reason, Song Mu disappeared into the dense forest in southern Yunnan again. After walking for many days, there was finally a lot of movement in the dense forest.
Gradually, people in ragged clothes often ran out of the mountains and forests, telling others about their experiences in the barbarian tribes as if they were surviving a disaster.
They were kidnapped and were about to be given to the demons, but they were rescued by a white-robed scholar. The scholar waved his hand with great force and wiped out all the ferocious barbarians.
There were constant reports of people escaping in the mountains and forests, and then there were even more people who escaped from the far away place of the Demon Sect. They said that there was a powerful attack on the city, and after destroying the city in an instant, they teleported countless people hundreds of miles away and sent them into the city.
Within the Wen Dynasty.
This situation continued for the next year, and the rumors about this white-robed scholar in southern Yunnan became even worse.
And the demons’ successive attacks,
But all these rumors were confirmed.
The demons in the mountains hunted the scholar in white robes, but suffered heavy casualties. At one point, the powerful demons appeared, and the border became extremely tense.
But in just an instant, all this turmoil disappeared. It was rumored that the white-robed scholar fought with the demon power for several days, and then disappeared into the world without a trace.
It caused countless people to sigh for a while.
At this moment, Song Mu was already marching on a desolate Gobi desert.
After searching for the Sky Star fragments from the southwest border for a long time, Song Mu saw that the situation was getting worse and worse, so he immediately changed direction and headed northwest.
Under the scorching sun, Song Mu took out the kettle from his arms, and Gu Dongdong drank a kettle of water before looking up and looking ahead.
"Now there are many fragments of the stars in the white jade scroll. Why don't you devote yourself to practicing this?"
Ji Zezhu's voice said again, and at this moment the golden crow was also revealed on Song Mu's shoulder.
Song Mu just raised his head and looked forward, shaking his head slightly.
"Now is not the time. I would like to see what they are planning in this northwest demon kingdom."
In the past year, the declaration of war from the demon clan has caused waves in the Wen Dynasty. Although the demons at this moment have not completely become one, and the East China Sea and the northwest demon country have not reached close cooperation, there are already many demons on the border.
Little movement.
Song Mu was looking at the vast Gobi Desert filled with only the scorching sun and hot wind, and murmured.
"This is a natural barrier for Wen Dynasty."
"But it's not easy to hold on to this barrier."
Song Mu continued to walk forward with his head buried in the air. Soon Song Mu saw a pass appearing in front of him, which looked very abrupt in the desolate Gobi desert.
After traveling for several days, they finally met a pass. Song Mu also quickened his pace and moved forward.
But the Golden Crow on Song Mu's shoulder flapped its wings a few times and said calmly.
"If you don't go to the Demon Kingdom, I don't know when the fragment of the sky star will be found."
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Let's go and take a look at this human race pass first."
Soon Song Mu came outside the pass, showing off his scholarly aura. The soldier immediately checked with Song Mu, and Song Mu finally entered the pass that was full of yellow sand.
The pass is not wide. As a military fortress, the rare additional function here is to provide shelter for passing caravans. But today, the pass is overcrowded.
"The camels have been tied tightly and water has been given to them. The soldiers at the pass have said that today is a west wind day."
"Don't worry, shopkeeper, we've been running for so many years, we don't dare to slack off on this west wind day."
"It's good to know. If anything goes wrong, you and I will just stand here and drink the northwest wind."
A rough man was talking to people in a caravan next to him. The guys in the caravan were also working hard to unload the goods on the camels and hurriedly fetching water to feed the camels.
Everyone's face was red and black, and their bodies were dark.
Song Mu walked by, but he also keenly caught the news, and he raised his eyebrows at the same time.
Song Mu walked forward and passed a tea stall, and at this moment he heard several travelers inside talking.
"I think this west wind day may be unusual. Look, the directions around here are all messed up."
"Yes, you haven't seen that the soldiers at this pass are all in full readiness. It's only in the past few years that West Wind seems to be getting more and more serious."
"I heard someone say that every time the westerly day passes, there will be a lot of guards at the gates close to the demon kingdom in the west. There will be rivers of blood on the city walls."
"Ah, if that's the case, should we leave quickly?"
"Where are we going? The nearest pass is still a hundred miles away from here. A sandstorm may be coming tonight, but this pass is not at the very border. Alas, let's be careful anyway."
Several men in the tea stall were sitting around and talking quietly. The tea drinkers around them all looked silent, obviously not denying the news.
Song Mu immediately took the tea bowl from the aunt who bought tea, and couldn't help but ask a question at this moment.
"Excuse me, I have just arrived here. Is this a westerly day?"
Song Mu asked this, and the woman also smiled and said.
"It's a sudden situation in the past few years. The sandstorms that blow up every summer and autumn are all together. The sandstorms are overwhelming and make people's faces hurt. And I heard that there are demons causing trouble in them."
"Guest can't get out even if he wants to come in today. This is the only inn in Guanli. The price is reasonable."
The man said this and was about to urge Song Mu to stay, but at this moment, a dusty figure walked in next to him and said to the woman immediately.
"Old lady, bring me a bowl of tea quickly! And some food."
When the woman heard what she was reading, she immediately turned around, walked over to take the helmet, and was about to help untie the armor, but was interrupted by the man.
"I won't be taking off my armor today. I have to go up to the tower after eating."
"Ah, you have to go up now. You've been up all night for three days."
"What do you know? Today is a westerly day. Shangguan ordered us to be on standby. One side of the pass is still somewhat damaged. Those idiots spent a long time repairing it but couldn't fix it. I still have to take a look."

"If these guys still give me a bad look tonight, I will whip them hard with a whip."
The man said so viciously, and immediately drank the big bowl of tea.
When others saw the man dressed as a sergeant, they looked at each other in confusion. Song Mu, who was standing in front of the tea stall, suddenly raised his eyebrows when he saw the man's face.
