Chapter 1: Desert Traveler
Chapter 1: Desert Traveler
This is a vast continent with many countries.
There is a country called Qing.
This is a unified multi-ethnic country with a total of 50 ethnic groups.
On the surface, the Qing Dynasty carried out the emperor system, and the emperordu caiized the world's political, military and economic affairs. In fact, the government and military affairs of the whole Qing Dynasty were manipulated in the hands of 50 ethnic groups in China.
In order to increase their influence, the leaders of all ethnic groups sent their daughters to the palace as concubines to fight for more interests for their own people.
The Qing Dynasty seems to be rich and peaceful, but in fact, the undercurrent is surging.
Especially after the news that the old emperor died of a serious illness, the middle and upper classes of the Qing Dynasty were even more turbulent.
The old emperor has 24 princes and 19 princesses, whose mothers are from different ethnic groups and represent different interests.
In order to maximize the interests of their own family, everyone wants to support the prince/princess representing their own clan to become the new emperor/feminion.
If such a situation is in other time and space, I'm afraid it will evolve into a scuffle for sons, and even eventually cause the country to fall apart.
However, no one in the Qing Dynasty would have such a worry.
Because there are alchemists here!!
.........fen.........ge............ line............
The Qing Dynasty is located in the east of Amestorius, and there is a large desert between the two countries.
Originally, there was a railway connection between the two countries, but later, the desert spread and covered the railway tracks, and the sandstorms made the clean-up work a joke. Over time, the railway was also abandoned, and the transportation between the two countries was cut off.
Today, there is no other way to get from one country to another than to cross the desert.
The Great Desert is the name of the desert that blocks communication between the two countries.
It is endless, vast and far away, and the vitality is few, which is frightening.
Except for sand thieves and big business groups and caravans that risk their lives for profit, basically no one will appear in this devil's land.
It was noon, and the sky was blue and cloudless.
The cool sun freely sprinkles its heat, shining on thousands of miles of yellow sand, dazzling people's eyes, and the steaming heat distorts the air.
Suddenly, the void rippled, and a hole appeared in the stable space.
The white light flashed, and there was one more person on the yellow sand.
It's Zhang Shen.
After looking around and confirming that there is no life, Zhang Shen took back his alert and took back the storage equipment with the jade charm that could be crushed at any time in his hand. In the jade charm, a powerful spell is sealed. If it is in the magic world, it is comparable to a forbidden spell.
Although he believes in the ability and integrity of the great will, Zhang Shen is still a little taboo after experiencing Ouyang Tianqi's casual "play" with the light.
Confirmed the safety, and then Zhang Shen really began to look at the surrounding environment.
In the sight, there is full of hot yellow sand, and even a trace of wind is blowing with the extreme heat that makes the population dry.
The corners of his mouth twitched: "Damn it, where the hell did he throw me..."
Before coming to this world known as the origin of alchemy, Zhang Shen also did some homework and tried his best to sort out and integrate all the information that could be collected. He still knew the general geography of the world.
"Desert... Well, it should be the desert between Amestorius and the Qing Kingdom~~" After a moment of meditation, Zhang Shen roughly understood his position.
He took out a homemade map. To the east of the desert is the Qing Dynasty, and to the west is Amestorius.
"Although Amestorius's alchemy is the most developed in the world, the alchemy of the Qing Dynasty seems to be very interesting... Well~~ Anyway, it has been a long time. It has been decided that the Qing Dynasty will be you!"
took out the compass and confirmed the east direction. Zhang Shen changed into the white robe common to the desert people, took out a hat and put it on his head, put on his hand stick, and embarked on the journey with a nondescript dress.
After completing their commitment to Ai Ai, Zhang Shen's world contributions and general points in their pockets are not much. Originally, Li Jing hoped to take two newly added little Lori to a relatively peaceful and mysterious world with a low level to digest his ability to consolidate his cultivation. However, Zhang Shen insisted on going to the world of steelmaking alone, and Ai Ai also showed her ability to prove that she didn't need anyone (?) Protect...
Zhang Shen's abnormality, coupled with Li Ji and Bu Lichen, also seemed to feel an inexplicable crisis, and the result of the discussion was unexpected.
Li Jing and Li Ji's sisters went to the world of "Death", Bu Lichen went to the world of " Thunderbolt" where crises were also everywhere, and the two sisters went to the world of "Pokemon" together.
Zhang Shen objected to such a result, but suffered the unanimousness of all women*.
You should know that in the above three worlds, the last two have hidden terrible existences that can destroy the world. Even in the "death" world, the confrontation of several major forces also makes those who rush to enter are in danger of death!
Unfortunate, the objection is invalid.
In desperation, the only thing Zhang Shen can do is to spend every penny and buy as many things as possible that can be used into the hands of women.
This matter has made Ai Ai's perception of someone a little better, which is considered unintentional.
When the crazy procurement ended, the general point in Zhang Shen's pocket was zero, and the world's contribution also successfully turned into a single-digit number.
If it hadn't been for the single-digit world contribution, I'm afraid it would have become zero.
"You guys, don't be fine." Recalling the scene before the departure, Zhang Shen's mood became heavy.
The scorching sun and high temperature make the population dry, but they can't illuminate the darkness that warms someone's heart.
He held the bucket hat and poured a mouthful of water. Zhang Shen put away these emotions, took a long breath, and continued on the road.
............
............
Zhang Shen could not see the magic power thousands of miles away, but prepared ultra-high multiple telescopes.
A picture in the lens stunned him.
"I'll go! That's...rail?!!"
In the long yellow sand, a section of railway track is exposed. Although it has been rusted and cannot be used, its original appearance can still be seen.
Zhang participated in the fast pace and walked towards the railway**.
He has been walking in the desert for several days. As far as he can see, except for the yellow sand and yellow sand, the occasional sporadic green is a great surprise that can make him like it for a while.
Zhang Shen is not without the means to quickly cross the desert. Not to mention the means of transportation in the universal capsule, just using alchemy can casually refine the means of transportation in the desert.
Zhang Shen is tempering his heart, will, spirit and soul!
Exercising his body is meaningless to him. He just wants to make his mind purer, more determined, more condensed and more clear in his soul by walking through the desert alone!!
In nearly a week's journey, Zhang Shen obviously felt his inner changes.
It is a wonderful feeling that can't be described in words.
Zhang Shen is confident that if he fights with himself before entering the world, he can solve himself a few days ago with great ease!
............
Running in the desert is a very * thing, especially long-distance running.
Zhang Shen deeply understood such a truth.
When he finally arrived at the railway**, it was almost an hour later.
"Huh...hu...meow, I actually forgot that I was using a telescope at that time..." Zhang Shen sat on the hot sand, breathing, his face was red, and he was hot all over. He stretched out his tongue and kept gasping. Sweat burst out like pulp, wet all his clothes, dripping into the yellow sand, and blinking.
After sitting on the ground and resting for a while, Zhang Shen's breathing gradually calmed down.
The clothes have been soaked through sweat, semi-dry, semi-wet, sticky and uncomfortable.
Zhang Shenxin drew a refining array on the sand.
symbolizes the endless circle of all things;
symbolizes the world's six supreme mysterious hexagons;
A triangle that symbolizes the power of "earth";
and several simple symbols that exude a sense of simplicity and vicissitudes.
Abandon the reaction-style mortar shackles and replace them with pattern symbols, which is a symbol of Zhang Shen's further in alchemy and further from the original "truth" of alchemy!
Of course, only simple refining reactions can do this, such as material change, human body refining, sage stone refining and other advanced refining reactions. Zhang Shen is still in the stage of imitating gourd painting ladle step by step.
lian into an array and start!!
The dazzling silver current flashed into the surrounding sand and disappeared.
The yellow sand trembles violently, quickly condenses and shapes. The original sand grains merge into one by one, turning into soil-like and rock-like substances, extending up and condensing little by little.
A bathroom appeared!!
Zhang Shen did not stop moving, and his fingers sketched on the sand. After a few breaths, the other was refined into a formation.
lian into an array and start!!
The silver streamer burst, scattered into the sky, turned into thousands of silver light spots, and disappeared into the air.
The poor water vapor in the desert began to condense.
In an area with a radius of thousands of meters, a cool breeze blows out of thin air, and you can see a little crystal airflow flowing rapidly towards Zhang Shen's place.
The water vapor in a large area condenses in one place and gradually approaches the critical point.
sudly—
A handful of clear springs, condensed out of thin air!!
Qingquan condenses into a line and slowly injects it into the water pipe entrance prepared in advance at the top of the bathroom.
Everything was ready. Zhang Shen walked into the bathroom, opened the lotus head while humming, and began to take a luxurious and pleasant bath.
He chose to cross the desert on foot to sharpen his soul, not to suffer. Moreover, he chose not to be a warrior's road, so he didn't have to torture himself.
It is a wonderful way to wash your heart.
Somewhere a few miles away when someone is taking a comfortable bath.
"Head family, there is something wrong with this wind."
The guide of the small caravan, Lao Wang, who has been walking in the desert all year round, felt the changes in the airflow around him, walked to Li Yaozu, the leader of the caravan, and whispered.
