The sword spirit quietly landed on a desert three days later. The wind and sand were everywhere, and it was a vast and thick yellow. The fine sand was hovering into a small tornado by the strong wind. The clouds slowly moved in the direction of the wind, gradually covering the outline of the ancient city in the distance, casting huge and quiet shadows. From a distance, it was full of mysterious exotic aura. The swaying sound of camel bells came sparse and distant along the wind. The sunset at dusk reflected the faces of merchants and travelers chatting and laughing. These caravans came from all over the place, hired guides and guards to come all the way to the city of Dunhuang, counting goods and preparing to enter the city.

The two of them put away their swords and couldn't help but look into the vast desert. There were many dazzling caravans ahead, leading precious treasures from the Western Regions, Persia and Uighurs. They were guarding several men with eagles and big swords with their eyes on the cart, while the leader of the caravan smoking was sitting cross-legged on the cart and spitting smoke rings. Although they looked scattered, their slender eyes showed a shocking and sharpness at first glance. Dunhuang is the pearl on the Silk Road and the lifeblood that connects the countries in the Western Regions and the Central Plains. Those who want to do business safely in such places will naturally not be ordinary people.

Desert... The desert has the painful past he did not want to recall the most, which made Xiao Qianye's pupils shrink violently into a little like a needle, and then he held Yun Xiao's hand tightly.

He was afraid that so long had passed, and he would still feel boundless fear when he saw similar scenery. He just wanted to keep her in a row, and could not let her leave her sight for a minute or a second.

Yun Xiao looked down at the hand holding her. The veins on her cold skin burst out. I don’t know how much force it used to almost cut her wrist directly, but she immediately felt the trembling of the people around her being out of control. She smiled and comforted: “I’m not afraid anymore, why are you still shaking?”

Xiao Qianye came to his senses and saw Yun Xiao reflecting the bright smile of the sunset. He shook his hand and ran forward for a few meters. He stretched out his arms and tiptoed happily. The yellow sand in the desert that could not be seen at the end, and the red dusk that stretched for thousands of miles. Unlike the forbidden area where the monsters in Yangchuan were rampant, it would make people instinctively fear and have the illusion of coldness. Outside Dunhuang City was a fire like a fire. The travelers who stopped temporarily surrounded each other in groups. After nightfall, they even formed a gang to light a bonfire party. Soon, the graceful dancer twisted affectionately, attracting a lot of shouts and applause. The aroma of the wine gradually spread and drifted into the tips of the two of them, causing them to choke and cough violently.

The traveler was attracted by the sound and looked over. He saw two young men and women covering their noses with disgust, laughing and teasing. Then the enthusiastic dancer danced while jumping and taking them to the bonfire. The leader of the caravan looked at Xiao Qianye curiously. This man looked very young, incompatible with his pale short hair, and his figure was well-proportioned and did not look like a weak scholar and literati, but his eyebrows were revealed.

The faint sickness was not like a strong martial arts practitioner. Looking at the woman beside him, she was tall, thin and unparalleled, but she learned dance with their girls in a warm and generous manner. She was curious about the origin of the two. The man vomited cigarettes and drank a sip of wine, and smiled and said, "Is the young master from Zhongyuan? It doesn't look like he is doing business. Could it be that a rich young master who is free and takes his little lover to Dunhuang for fun?"

The greetings of the merchant were nothing more than roundabout clichés to see if there was any profit. Although he was not as generous as Gongsun Yan, he was also a powerful person. He could see his unique temperament when he was educated since childhood. Before he could find any reason to fool him, Yun Xiao's voice burst into his ears and called his name. He looked at the sound and saw that she had changed into a gorgeous dance costume, which was the performance costume of the Western Region dancer, mixed with red, orange, blue and green brocade silk, dotted with sparkling jewelry and broken diamonds. He turned gently by the bonfire. The hem of the skirt was as bright as a starry sky. There were small golden bells hanging on her arms and ankles, accompanied by the crappy dance postures.

"Is it good?" Yun Xiao smiled at him with a roaring eyebrows, but Xiao Qianye's face turned pale. The customs and customs of the Western Regions are much different from those of the Central Plains. Their clothes are also luxurious and sexy. She lit up her forehead, wearing a charming dance uniform with exposed shoulders, and a thin layer of breast wrapped around her upper body. Her entire back was faintly visible under the gauze. She hung delicate jewelry on her slender waist, and stepped on the sand barefoot. When he reacted, he jumped over and took off her coat and wrapped her up. Her cheeks were red and cursed, "Why are you wearing this..."

Yun Xiao blinked his eyes, and only his head was left behind. He muttered: "They invited me to dance and changed my clothes. This is the first time I wear this kind of clothes. It looks so beautiful!"

"Where is it good? It's not good at all, and it's changed back!" He whispered and quizzed. The flush on both sides of his cheeks had spread to his ears. He heard the men laughing disdainfully from behind. He seemed to have been used to the rare and strange behavior of people in the Central Plains. He smiled with his mouth, "Young master, don't be nervous, just her thin arms and legs, we don't care about it!"

"A flat horse?" Yun Xiao's mouth twitched, and he took a breath silently, lowered his head to look at his chest, and hummed twice in dissatisfaction. His fingers lifted up the flames and brushed across his body. She proudly pushed Xiao Qianye away, pulled off his coat and threw it back, and deliberately walked out of the men who laughed at her to the campfire and danced again. Everyone was stunned. The thin woman who had just now suddenly became plump, and her half-exposed chest swayed slightly with the dance posture. She could see the charming gap, which made people couldn't help swallowing.

Before she could show off for a while, Xiao Qianye slapped the forehead with a slap. Yun Xiao hugged her head and howled "Oh" and was about to argue, but he wrapped it up again. This time his face was covered with clouds. He pulled her and forced her to sit next to him, cursing, "Don't take off your clothes when you're wearing them!"

"You are so rigid!" She stubbornly turned her mouth, and then glared back by his scary eyes, and could only pout and hum twice in her clothes.

The men burst into laughter and came over to hand her wine with malicious intentions. Then they showed envious eyes to the young master and joked sarcastically: "Young master is so lucky. You have to be rich enough to get such a beautiful woman, right?"

With three words left, Xiao Qianye pushed the glasses of wine handed to Yun Xiao, too lazy to reply. When the merchants saw that he was unhappy, they immediately dissipated with tact. At this time, the old man who had been sitting quietly on the other side looked over meaningfully. The cracked face was obviously a long time of wind and sand, and his mouth showed yellow teeth full of sand, which seemed to be reminded and warned: "The little girl used a foolish spell just now? It was amazing to be able to change her body in such a silent and silent manner in front of everyone."

Yun Xiao pursed his lips guiltily, but there was a hint of sarcasm in the old man's eyes, and his tone became unfriendly: "Feeling at the appearance and dressing of you two, I thought they were travelers from the Central Plains, but seeing how exquisite your magical cultivation is, isn't it... a person from the Demon Sect?"

"Demon Sect?" Yun Xiao murmured and repeated. Although Zhongyuan did not use magic, he would not be regarded as a demon Sect at all. Why did this old man say such incomprehensible words?

"Isn't it? That's good." The old man's eyes were actually staring at her. He felt relieved after he found that the little girl seemed to know nothing. He took out a dry cigarette from his arms and lit it. He sighed deeply, and shook his head with emotion, "It's good, it's good! Dunhuang has been disturbed by Lei Gongmo this year, and even the Demon Cult who had moved west for decades has made a comeback. Recently, the city has been doing those tricks of pretending to be a god. If you come to play, I advise you to go back early to avoid causing trouble."

Xiao Qianye was silent. He was not from the Central Plains and did not know anything about the Western Regions. He naturally knew nothing about these complex forces. However, at this time, he suddenly heard the word "Demon Cult". His instinctive vigilance still made him pretend to be curious and asked: "Old man, what is the Demon Cult?"

"You have never heard of the Demon Sect, and you dare to come to Dunhuang to play?" The old man gave him a blank look, then looked at Yun Xiao, who was also curious, and tsk his tongue. Perhaps because he was afraid that these two ignorant young people would sacrifice their lives in vain. He lowered his voice and explained, "The Demon Sect is the real name of Manichaeism. It is said that its origin was the Zoroastrianism of ancient Persia. I don't know when it began to slowly penetrate into the Western Regions and then spread from the Silk Road to the Central Plains. The war in the Central Plains a hundred years ago was the people of the Demon Sect that interfered with it. It took fifty years to stabilize. Later, the court ordered the expulsion of the Demon Sect, and all the sects of the Wulin also joined the battle to kill demons. They finally drove the remaining forces out of the Central Plains. It has only been fifty years since the good days have just begun. The damn Lei Gongmo killed General Wen, colluded with the Demon Sect, and became the local emperor."

"Old man... you can't say this nonsense." Xiao Qianye was shocked. Although the words "Lotus Emperor" are easy to understand, they are undoubtedly a taboo. They will cause disasters to come from their mouths. The old man snorted disdainfully, and Meifeng cursed coldly, "My old woman was bewitched by the Demon Cult for fifty years ago. She jumped into the altar of the Demon Cult with a holy fire Zhaozhao and was burned to death. I have seen the group of guys pretending to be gods and ghosts who deceived people's hearts and cheated money. Now I want to use the same trick to re-using the savior. I'm bah! When General Wen was alive, he never allowed the Demon Cult to enter the city. Now Lei Gongmo is in power and built a holy palace in the city. Every day, a group of people are talking about it. I have lived in Dunhuang for decades. Now I would rather sleep in the desert every day than go into the city to smell the stinky smell!"

Yun Xiao quickly helped him beat his back and asked, "Old man, but I heard that the current royal family is addicted to Buddhahood, how could he tolerate the unscrupulous expansion of other religious forces?"

"It's a Buddha when I put on the robes. Who knows what it is when I take them off?" The old man's eyes suddenly got a little dark and he took a deep breath of cigarette.

Xiao Qianye's expression slowly changed subtly. He always did not like religion. This kind of power made great progress. Once it bewitched people's hearts, he would greedily extend his tentacles to every inch of land that could be invaded. Tianche said that the golden Buddha in the dragon robe and the Buddha bone relics inside were smuggled from overseas caravans, and were then presented to the emperor by Lei Gongmo. Since then, the emperor's attitude towards him has changed drastically. In just one year, he has rewarded many gold, silver, jewelry and young beauties. The largest overseas chamber of commerce alliance is undoubtedly Shanhaijia. Shanhaijiajia internal poisons. The products have been rampant for many years. Now, when I hear the old man's remarks, it seems that there are traces of clues beginning to float, but they can't be connected into lines.

He was unable to make a conclusion for a moment, would there be any involvement in Dunhuang, Chang'an, Western Regions, Demon Sect, Mountains and Seas?

While pondering, the caravan just now was already shouting and getting up to enter the city. The leader of the leader looked at the old man meaningfully and laughed: "Old man Li is talking nonsense again. Disaster comes from the mouth. You are so old, so please don't be able to stop the wall and die at that time!"
