340 The border

Two months later, at the Northwest border of the great Shang, it was a bit awkward.

Under the scorching sun, a caravan of camels was walking on a desolate and rugged mountain path. The bell of the caravan rang melodiously, tinkling in the wind.

It was called a camel team, but it was not camels or horses that were carrying things in this team, but centipedes-like centipedes.

The centipede was like a small train, with a body of more than 20 meters long and a back of more than one meter wide. It was flat and long, and the cargo that a centipede could carry was more than that of ten camels.

The centipede could cross mountains as if it was walking on flat ground. It was not picky about its food, had a gentle personality, and could carry heavy loads. It was really a good helper when carrying things.

There were eight centipedes in this camel team.

The people and goods in the camel team were all fixed on the back of the centipede.

The centipede was walking slowly. On the back of a centipede at the back of the team, there was a bamboo chair. There was even a piece of cloth covering the bamboo chair to block out the sun. Xia Pingan was sitting on the bamboo chair, swaying along with the centipede. He was looking at the same desolate mountain scenery around him in boredom.

On one side of the bamboo chair, there was a birdcage. The birdcage was empty, and the birds inside were nowhere to be seen.

The surrounding scenery was all dirt-Yellow Rock and soil, and there were some short brambles and weeds on the ground. Wild animals such as rabbits, aardwolves, and foxes could be seen occasionally in the wild, but there were not many.

Such a scene had been in front of Xia Pingan’s eyes for two whole days.

Initially, Xia Pingan had planned to take the train to Shangjing city. However, there had been too much commotion that night. Xia Pingan, who felt that something was amiss, got off the train in time when the train stopped at a place called ya town in the middle of the night to add coal and water.

The train could travel less than 90 kilometers an hour on the tracks, so a ticket was enough.

A Summoner like him could fly at about 260 kilometers per hour, which was about three times faster than a train. However, it would cost about 80 points of precious divine power to fly in the air per hour.

After getting off the train, Xia Pingan used an illusion to hide his figure. He flew wildly in the night for a full six hours until dawn. He flew 2000 kilometers away from Shangjing city before he finally landed in a small town.

Later on, it was proven that Xia Pingan’s decision to get off the train in time and escape was correct and timely.

In the next two days, Xia Pingan finally found out what had happened in Shangjing that night.

The Hierarch of the blood demon church, demigod zu Motian, led the Army of the blood demon church to attack Shangjing city and fought against bei tangzhao. His goal was to find him.

The demon God had issued a Demon God order that anyone who killed Xia ping ‘an would be able to condense a divine wheel and become a God as long as they could obtain an eternal body and offer Xia ping’ an a blood sacrifice.

In just two short days, Xia ping ‘an’s name had spread throughout the entire Yuan Qiu world because of the battle between demigods and the demon God order. No matter where Xia ping’ an went, whether it was eating or going to the toilet, he could hear people talking about his name.

In the next few days, Xia Pingan also heard the news that all the trains, ships, and airships that left Shangjing city that day had been intercepted and searched by the Masters of the bloody demon church.

The blood demon church’s actions were too fast. If he was still on the train, he might have been intercepted by the blood demon church.

The further away they were from Shangjing, the lower the probability of the experts of the bloody demon church being able to intercept them.

At this moment, it was no longer the people of the bloody demon church who were looking for Xia ping ‘an. Instead, countless people in the entire great Shang kingdom were looking for Xia ping’ an.

The bloody demon church had issued a bounty. Anyone who could provide accurate information on Xia Pingan’s whereabouts would be rewarded with 10 million gold coins.

This huge bounty of ten million gold coins had caused the entire great Shang country to be in an uproar. Countless people in the pugilistic world, bounty hunters, Summoners, people from both the underworld and the underworld, and even ordinary people who dreamed of making a fortune, were all looking for Xia ping ‘an.

Xia ping ‘an’s portrait had silently spread throughout the entire great Shang.

Along the way, Xia Pingan had encountered more than one person who passed by her with a portrait of her.

The facts had also proven that people like Beitang Wangchuan, who could see through the Ruyi mask on his face at a glance, were indeed very few. Those who had Xia Pingan’s portrait, even if they stood next to Xia Pingan, did not recognize Xia Pingan’s changed face.

In the past two months, Xia Pingan had changed his mode of transportation and travel route time and time again. Sometimes, he would use an airship, sometimes, he would use a train, sometimes, he would take a boat, and sometimes, he would fly. His whereabouts were erratic, his route changed, but his actions were decisive. Finally, he had gotten rid of the blood demon church’s inescapable net to capture him. He did not reveal his whereabouts at all. It was only today that he arrived at the border between the Northwest of the great Shang and the secluded Mountain region.

The serene mountain was a mountain range and also a region. It was connected to the Northwest of the great Shang and had an area of about two million square kilometers. It had always been a chaotic area that no one cared about.

Outside of the great Shang, the serene mountain was also connected to the territory of the devil wolf Clan in the North. The South of the serene mountain was the territory of the beastmen while the underground of the serene mountain was the world of underground devil insects. The entire serene mountain was filled with bandits, tyrants and all sorts of desperadoes who had escaped here from all over the world.

young brother, after crossing this Wolf Fang Mountain, the moon Castle is right in front of us. We can rest in the moon Castle for one night. Tomorrow, we will arrive at the serene mountain, ” an old man in a sheep-skin coat turned around and said to Xia Pingan.

Oh, then you can rest at ease tonight, Yingluo. Xia Pingan also smiled.

This old man was the leader of the camel caravan, his name was mu li. He had been leading the camel caravan all year round between Blue Flag city and the serene mountains of Fengling province in the Northwest of the great Shang kingdom.

Serene mountain produced red rubies, a few extremely valuable medicinal herbs, and high-grade fur. The salt, cloth, tea, and some delicate artifacts in blue Flag city were also what serene mountain needed. Because of the difference in the production of materials, the Northwest border of the great Shang kingdom was prosperous but abnormal in trade.

The great Shang country had a customs, but the customs collected heavy taxes. Therefore, in order to avoid taxes, all kinds of smuggling camel teams emerged.

Xia ping ‘an originally wanted to enter the serene mountains through normal channels, but he realized that the great Shang Kingdom’s border control over the serene mountains was extremely strict. There were Summoners stationed in the sky, and all travelers had to be checked. Moreover, there were too many people from all walks of life around the border. All the summoners who were in the sky were the focus of attention. Xia ping’ an didn’t know if there were any people from the blood demon church here. Therefore, he found a camel team, paid some money, and got the camel team to lead the way. They followed the camel team and entered the secluded mountain from the ground.

Bringing people in and out of the secluded mountains was also one of the camel caravans ‘jobs. Every year, countless people used this method to enter the secluded mountains.

In fact, Xia Pingan had not thought about where he would go after leaving Shangjing. He came to the secluded mountains to avenge Lin Qing.

The blood demon church’s Youshan branch altar master Wei Jiangxing was Xia Pingan’s target this time.

He would think about it after he got his revenge.

Xia ping ‘an wasn’t too sure about the exact situation in the secluded mountains. He wasn’t sure if his revenge would expose himself. Everything would have to wait until they arrived here and adapt to the situation.

little brother, I’ve been a camel caravan here for decades. I’ve seen all kinds of people. Looking at you, you’re so gentle and refined. You shouldn’t have come to the serene mountains. Only those who eat people without spitting out their bones come here. the journey was slow. After mu li, the leader of the camel caravan, took a few puffs of smoke, he suddenly had the interest to chat. As he smoked, he started chatting with Xia Pingan.

the most difficult thing in the world is actually the word ‘poor’. Xia Pingan sighed and spread out his hands, ” I heard that it’s easy to get rich in the secluded mountains and there are many opportunities. I’m here to try my luck, ” he said.

“Brother, you’re a Summoner?”

yes, Yingluo. Xia Pingan nodded, pretending to be reserved. I can barely protect myself!

hahaha, no wonder you’re so bold, brother. But if you want to make a fortune, go find Xia Pingan, Yingluo, ” the leader of the camel caravan, mu li, laughed out loud. I still want to make a fortune, but in the end, I’ll only be the leader of this camel caravan for the rest of my life. I even have to give 60% of the money I earn to my boss. Aiyingluo.

Xia Pingan’s money is not something that ordinary people can earn. Didn’t I hear that he was assassinated in Shangjing? it’s been two months. We don’t even know if he’s still alive. Where are we supposed to find him? that money might have already been earned by someone else! Xia Pingan spoke about himself in a nonchalant tone and spread out his hands.

that’s true. This news is so fake that it made people unconscious. We travel in the camel caravan to earn some hard money. As long as we don’t encounter bandits, it’ll be fine!

Mu li smacked his tobacco pipe. The moment he finished his words, a man suddenly shot out from the sand in front of him. An arrow shot out of the sand as fast as a lightning bolt and instantly shot off a camel guard in leather armor from the back of the centipede. The camel guard fell to the ground. Before the camel guard could struggle, the man who had jumped out of the sand had already pounced on him like a hungry wolf. With a fierce slash, he chopped off the camel Guard’s neck, causing his blood to spray all over the yellow sand.

A worker in the team of “sand Bandit Pi Xiu” who was driving a centipede shouted out in fear.
