Dragon Zero

Haifeng traveled from the desert to the border town, but did not find the businessman who kidnapped Humia. After arriving in the nearest town, Haifeng used his personal connections to inquire about the traces of the merchants. Sure enough, he found out that three or four hours ago, there was a Saban tower. The caravan had come to town, but had left.

At this time, it was getting dark, and the four quickly replenished food and water, and rented four fast horses in the Mafang to chase them east, thinking that they could stop them on the road. But they chased them out for several hours, but they never saw the businessman.

Silio said: "Generally, the caravan does not travel very fast. At the speed we are chasing, we should have caught up. Don't they plan to rest at night and drive all night?"

The wind suddenly slapped his forehead: "Oh, I forgot that there is a faster and more direct waterway to Xiangshan City. They can board the cargo at one time and go down the river straight into Xiangshan City!"

The three of them stared at him a little bit complainingly.

The wind said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I used to go to Xiangshan City almost without taking water, so I forgot."

Scilio said: "No wonder they are still out of town in the evening, so they can rest on the boat."

"How about we rush to the river now?" Garland asked.

Gaifeng said: "If you want to trade along the way, it is better to take the land route. They should go straight to Xiangshan City by water, and they will not go to other cities to sell goods. The river is in a small town in the south, but if they go there now, they should have set off early. ."

"We ran across the river on our guard, maybe we could catch up," Garland said.

Silio and Bing Zhixie did not immediately agree to this plan, mainly because they were on the road these days, and everyone was very tired to guard them, otherwise they would not have been renting a horse in the town before.

Hurried Feng said: "It's not a good way to chase, I have a way to go to Xiangshan City faster." He pointed to the mountain to the north and said: "The commander of the Lanku camp over there is my buddy, he owes me a big favor. I You can let him open inter-city teleportation and send people to a subsidiary city not too far from Xiangshan City. Let's go directly to Xiangshan City and wait for those merchants!"

...

Xiangshan City is a big city among the kingdoms of the sandy land. It has a magnificent red city wall and a golden dome. People look very small under the towering city wall. In the sky of hundreds of meters, more than a dozen white hot air balloons are flying in and out. , The buildings in the city are densely populated and extremely prosperous. Compared with this place, the Eagle Land Oasis is like the gap between a fly restaurant and a luxurious restaurant.

It took Bing Zhixie two days to just come outside Xiangshan City, only to see two teams of white-robed rangers of more than ten people running past under the city wall roaring. Hundreds of merchants and hawkers lined up in a row outside the West City Gate, spread out blankets and set up stalls. There is no reason for it. Foreign merchants sell it outside the city, and they don't need to take 80% of the tax like in the city, and only need to pay 50%.

The four of them came to the bottom of the city on horseback, and the city gate soldiers in front of the vaulted gate immediately stopped them to check, a large amount of entry tax was indispensable, and they had to undergo an inspection of their items. Because they were outsiders, they had to register their names. View ID cards.

The wind said to them: "Xiangshan City is one of the main cities of the Angel Sect of the True Sect. The sect's laws are extremely strict, and the ice is childish. You have to be careful."

Passing through the deep city gate, the buildings in the city suddenly appeared, and there were countless spires in front of them, as dense as a forest. It may not be quite as grand as Dibilis and Hindmore, but the buildings are built high, and it is definitely a great city in the desert.

Passing under the nearly 100-meter-high Kuomen Bridge, the gust of wind led them to the depths of the city, teleporting all the way back to the water port in the southeast of the city. Most of the merchants who come by water are far-flung merchants, but due to the calamity, the scale of the long-distance caravans has dropped significantly in recent months, and the water port, which used to be a lot of goods and busy with people, seems a little deserted.

Gao Feng found the foreman who unloaded the cargo at the three ports, called them outside the warehouse and said, "Help me pay attention to the Sabanta caravan that has come here recently. There are not many of them, and among them is a woman with long green hair and green eyes. ." After speaking, he gave each of them two pure second-grade magic crystal coins.

When the three foremen got this price, they knew how important the matter was, and all three of them were happy. One of them said: "You said that the Sabanta merchants came here in the morning, and there were not many people."

Hayate thought for a while and said, "Impossible, those people shouldn't be so fast. Have you seen a woman with green hair and green eyes, young, she should be pretty."

The foreman shook his head and said, "I didn't see it. But they came by airship, which I find strange."

"Why is it strange?"

The foreman said: "When I was unloading the goods, I found that the goods were sugar, silk, tea, Pabolan powder and crocodile skin. You know that merchants are all looking for profit. These are ordinary goods and should not be Rent an airship and send it over, are they still making money?"

"Oh!" Bing Zhixie's nerves jumped, and the three of Bing Zhixie felt strange when they heard what he said. Moreover, those who kidnapped Humia were really on airships, and if the wind was favorable, it was indeed possible to arrive at Xiangshan City earlier.

The foreman sneered and said, "But, I don't have a list of goods. I don't know if I have some valuables in it. I didn't see the green-haired woman you mentioned. Maybe I was overthinking."

Gale Wind and the others had never seen those Sabanta merchants, so they couldn't inquire carefully, so they had to ask, "Do you know where those merchants went?"

The foreman shook his head.

Hurricane wondered: "Don't you know? When you and your subordinates are unloading and loading goods, don't you like to chat a few times?"

The foreman smiled again and said: "I remembered, this is the second strange place I think. Generally, the merchants will eat something at a nearby restaurant before leaving, but they leave immediately after loading the truck. I didn't chat much with my servants. You think, just those commercial goods, do you need to hurry up and hurry up, the tone is still so tight."

Garland stepped forward and whispered to the wind: "It is necessary to track down this caravan."

Gao Feng nodded and said to the three foremen again, "If there is another caravan I'm looking for, and you see a beautiful girl with green hair and green eyes, please pay more attention to me, and I will give you another one when there is news. bounty."

The three foremen naturally agreed happily.

After leaving the water port, Bing Zhixie asked, "Hai Feng, you should know how to find those people, right?"

Hurricane said: "They have goods, so naturally they have to ship them. I used to sell dirty... I used to sell goods in Xiangshan City a lot of the time. Although I don't come in person every time, the merchants know a little bit about it. But the small caravan's goods Not many, there are a lot of merchants who can accept their goods, it’s a bit troublesome to find…”
