The grass in the factory should be plucked

Qi Yong thought he was hallucinating. He rubbed his eyes hard, but there was still no one on the camel!

Prince Jing'an disappeared out of thin air!

However, neither the Duke Dingguo who was walking side by side with her nor the personal soldiers surrounding them reacted at all!

"My Lord, she..."

Qi Yong grabbed a personal soldier next to him and asked stutteringly.

The guard smiled and said, "Your Highness and the Duke are immortals who have been banished to the mortal world. They have great magical powers. You will get used to them slowly."

Qi Yong was dumbfounded.

A banished immortal descended to earth? What does this mean?

The guard sighed and patted his shoulder: "It's been a long time since you returned to Da Chu, right?"

He rummaged through his bag and pulled out a copy of The New Legend of the Mirror Demon. He stuffed it into Qi Yong's pocket and said, "Here, this is for you. You'll understand after you finish reading this book."

Qi Yong took the book in doubt, thanked him, and did not dare to ask more questions. He continued to lead the team through the sand dunes of all sizes.

At noon, Qi Yong was shocked to find that the banished female immortal appeared again!

Jiang Li brought food and water from the Dragon Palace for everyone. She couldn't carry so much by herself, so she brought out the ivy as well.

Qi Yong suddenly saw a vine carrying countless food boxes and water bags, and his face turned pale with fright.

"Monster...monster..."

That vine can not only carry things, but also walk on its own. If it isn’t a monster, then what is it?

The roots of the ivy were so burned by the hot sand that they jumped up and down. Jiang Li said with a smile, "Little ivy, you are afraid of the heat. Put your things down and go back."

"Okay, master."

Huichunying quickly threw the things in her hand onto the sand. Jiang Li thought about it and took her back to the Dragon Palace.

Jiang Li saw Qi Yong was so scared that his face turned pale, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, this is my spirit pet, it won't hurt anyone."

Qi Yong said tremblingly: "Yes! I was blind and didn't recognize the real master, please don't blame me, fairy!"

Jiang Li ignored him. After seeing this so many times, he was no longer surprised.

Xie Changan ordered his personal soldiers to pick up the things that the ivy had thrown on the sand and distribute them to everyone.

Qi Yong also got a bag of water and a few rice balls.

The rice ball was made very delicately, filled with dried meat and dried vegetables, and tasted good.

These dried meats and vegetables are products developed by the Longmen Trading Company during droughts. They can be preserved for a long time and wrapped in steamed buns, pancakes, or rice balls. They are convenient and delicious, and are especially suitable for the military and travelers on the road.

The rice balls were of course made by the hardworking and capable Xiao Teng. She had many vines, and she made rice balls quickly and well, which won unanimous praise from everyone.

When Qi Yong heard that the rice balls were actually made by that vine monster, he was shocked and admired.

He was also relieved about this trip. The prince and the duke were very powerful and could subdue such a powerful vine monster. Why would they be afraid of the monster that occupied the ancient city?

At night, the team did not stop to rest, but continued to move forward with torches.

Qi Yong didn't feel any discomfort. It was common for a caravan to travel through the desert without sleep for several days.

What's more, this team has excellent food, with three meals a day and a variety of different dishes.

Breakfast is steamed buns, lunch is rice balls or pancakes wrapped with dried meat and dried vegetables, and every meal is different. There is even grilled fish for dinner!

Because Jiang Li loves to eat fish, before setting off, Xie Changan asked his personal soldiers to catch a lot of fish in Aigan Lake and raise them in the Dragon Palace.

Qi Yong has become numb, and just like those bodyguards, he will not be surprised no matter what the prince comes up with.

They marched quickly all the way, compressing a journey of two or three days into one day and one night.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, the Black Wind Pass is ahead." Qi Yong said respectfully.

Jiang Li and Xie Changan looked into the distance and saw a huge crack in the desert, cutting off the continuous sand dunes.

Surrounding it is an endless sea of golden sand with undulating sand dunes like solidified waves, and the Black Wind Mouth is like an abrupt black vortex in the waves, which is particularly eye-catching.

There are steep sand walls on both sides of the mountain pass, which have formed various strange shapes due to long-term wind erosion.

Xie Changan understood. No wonder this place was called "Black Wind Mouth". When strong winds came, this crack became a channel for the wind. The wind whistled in from afar, gathered and accelerated here, easily causing a sandstorm.

"After passing through the Black Wind Pass and walking for about half a day, we will reach the area where the ancient city is located."

Qi Yong asked cautiously, "Do you want to take a rest, Lord?"

Desert storms can come suddenly, and you might encounter one just after passing the Black Wind Pass.

Xie Changan gave Jiang Li a questioning look.

Jiang Li called Bai Xian through the contract again, but still received no response.

She frowned and shook her head at Xie Changan.

Xie Changan said decisively: "No need to rest, just go straight through the Black Wind Passage!"

"Yes!"

Qi Yong did not dare to raise any objection. These two were immortals with magical powers. He was just a mortal, so he naturally did not dare to question the decision of the immortals.

"Everyone on alert, pass through the Black Wind Pass at full speed!"

Xie Changan gave orders and turned to Jiang Li, "Little Li Nu, do you want to go back to the Dragon Palace first?"

If they encounter a storm, even though they have many means, they are still mortal bodies and cannot resist the power of nature.

The little raccoon is still a pregnant woman, how can we let her take risks?

Jiang Li thought about it and nodded: "Okay."

Even if the team was blown away by the storm, she and Xie Changan had a common understanding and could sense each other's location no matter where they were.

Then, Jiang Li's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot again.

Qi Yong was no longer surprised, so he led the team into the long and narrow Black Wind Pass.

The journey was safe and sound, and when the team walked out of the Black Wind Pass, the bodyguards all breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Yong did not dare to be distracted. He continued to lead the way in front, while keeping his ears perked up to not miss any sound.

Xie Changan suddenly frowned: "There's movement!"

Qi Yong was startled and was about to ask him what he had discovered, but suddenly he saw that the sand suddenly began to roll restlessly on the ground like a group of frightened insects.

"Oh no, the storm is coming!"

Qi Yong shouted loudly, driving the camels together, and asked everyone to gather in the center of the camel herd.

Xie Changan looked up and saw that the distant horizon seemed to have been kneaded into a chaotic gray-yellow color by an invisible giant hand. The boundary that once clearly divided heaven and earth was now pressing towards them at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A low and terrifying roar came from the Black Wind Mouth, as if a giant beast hidden in the depths of the desert was roaring.

However, Xie Changan was able to hear a faint ethereal singing voice amidst the huge sound of the wind!

“That singing voice…is ringing!”

Qi Yong also heard it and his face turned pale.

The strong wind mixed with a lot of sand rushed towards them.

At first, it was just fine grains of sand hitting people's faces, which soon turned into intensive beatings. When the dark yellow wall completely covered the canyon, everyone realized the weight of the three words "Black Wind Pass" - the sunlight was completely swallowed up, and it was clearly noon but it was plunged into darkness.

Everything in their sight was distorted. The wind-eroded columns appeared and disappeared in the sand curtain, like ferocious beasts pouncing towards them.

Xie Changan squinted his eyes and through the wind and sand, he saw a magnificent ancient city looming in the storm.

The ancient city of Jingjue has appeared!
