Human Shackles

The Gobi Desert is desolate and hot. As the altitude gradually increases, the oxygen content of the air decreases and the temperature turns colder. The howling cold wind can dry people instantly.

The road has not been maintained for a long time and has long been corroded by wind and sand. It is full of big holes and is very bumpy to walk on.

Triceratops are cold-blooded animals and are extremely sensitive to temperature changes. They are more active when it is hot, but once they get cold, they become lazy and slow down.

When the sky was getting late, a small hill appeared in front of it. The middle of the hill was lush and green, and it turned out to be an oasis. The surrounding hills blocked the invasion of wind and sand, and together with this small lake, it was possible to walk in this deserted place. An oasis is formed in the Gobi plateau.

There is a small village in the oasis. The village is not big. There are rows of simple houses made of gravel built around a small lake. Smoke rises from the cooking pots. It is obvious that many people live there.

Luo Kai patted the giant lizard on its big head, turned to the back of a sand dune, jumped down with Renxiong and Thirteen, and told the giant lizard: "Sleep here tonight, don't run around."

The Triceratops looked at him blankly with its big eyes, obviously unable to understand.

Luo Kai was helpless and could only reach out and hold down the ground. The hard plateau frozen soil collapsed rapidly, forming a deep pit. He said again: "Stay here and sleep here tonight. Don't run around." While speaking, he also strengthened his spiritual suggestion.

Although the Triceratops didn't understand the meaning of the words, it felt sleepy. After a while, it rolled its eyelids and lay down in the pit and fell asleep.

Luo Kai waved his hand to guide the soil to gather, burying most of the Triceratops lizard's body, and then led Man Xiong and Thirteen into the oasis.

The hills around the oasis isolate the raging cold wind, making it very warm. The conditions are actually better than expected.

There is also a large area of ​​unknown green plants planted around the small lake, which looks a bit like wheat. It is probably a kind of plateau barley. Many people are working. Most of these people are naked and have disheveled faces, but they have smiles on their faces. Life seems to be pretty good, presumably because the environment in the Gobi wilderness separates ferocious beasts and unknown dangers.

He asked an old man sitting on a field ridge smoking a cigarette: "Uncle, what is the name of your place? Is there a place to live?"

The old man looked at him, clicked the dry pipe in his mouth and said, "This is called Ze County, which is a county under the Kingdom of Caiyun. If you go inside, there is a place specially designed to receive guests."

Luo Kai smiled. This small oasis might not even be considered a village, but it was actually called a county. He continued walking inside. In the center of the oasis, there was a row of gravel buildings, with a two-story small building in the middle. Building, there is an iron sign hanging at the door of the small building, with several big characters written in paint on it, Ze County Hotel, and below there is a line of small crooked characters, fighting is prohibited here.

The "Grand Hotel" is very simple. The tables, chairs and benches in the lobby are all missing arms and legs and are cushioned with stones. A barefoot old man is lying on the bench behind the bar and dozing off.

Luo Kai knocked on the table: "Boss, do you have any room available?"

The old man opened his eyes sleepily and pointed to the wooden sign on the table, which read a line of large characters: "This store does not accept money, only barter. One kilogram of growing ferocious beast meat can be exchanged for a meal of food and water." , accommodation is extra.”

"Well, okay." Luo Kai took out a few pieces of dried meat from his backpack and handed them over.

The old man stood up straight and took the dried meat. He sniffed it at the tip of his nose first, then took out a key from his pocket and threw it over with satisfaction: "Room 204, food is paid according to quantity." After saying that, he lay down again.

Luo Kai still wanted to ask something, but he stopped asking and led Ren Xiong and Shi San to find a table to sit down. He came here mainly to inquire about the situation of the Kingdom of Colorful Clouds and the Broken Spirit Realm. This old man looks ordinary, but in fact he is extraordinary. He is a high-level physical master, and hypnotic detection at the spiritual level has no effect.

Soon, a tall and thick-looking village woman came over with a dinner plate. The dinner plate contained grey-brown lumps of food, like steamed buns made from plateau barley. Luo Kai picked up a piece and tasted it. It was sweet. It's astringent, has a high sugar content, and tastes pretty good. The bear is so happy to eat it that he licks it while lying down, letting out an excited purr from his throat.

Behind the bar, the old man looked at Man-Bear with slightly narrowed eyes, looking a little strange. He had a vast knowledge of blogs, so he could naturally tell that Man-Bear was a ferocious beast, and it was also an extremely rare ferocious beast of the gnat type. Known to be able to deeply study the physical skills created by humans. With the natural strength and the assistance of physical skills, the combat effectiveness will increase exponentially. However, because of its high intelligence and strong free will, it is difficult for humans to use genetic means. be influenced.

There was a roar of motors outside, and a yellow-painted military off-road vehicle drove into the oasis. After exploring the oasis, it drove towards the hotel. Three men and one woman got out of the car.

The four of them walked into the small building and glanced at Luo Kai first. The man in the lead asked the old man: "Boss, have you seen a woman in her thirties?"

The old man opened his cloudy eyes and said calmly: "I receive dozens of guests here every day, I can't remember."

The man held down the beret who was angry and wanted to speak. He also saw that the old man was a high-level physical trainer and should not start a conflict lightly. He looked at the wooden sign on the table and took out a few pieces of meat from his backpack. Qian: "Two rooms, and then some food and drink."

They found a table and sat down, their eyes wandering between Luo Kai and his party and the old man. Among them, the beautiful woman's eyes were faintly emitting blue light, and she displayed a powerful way of observing objects.

Luo Kaixin was impatient, and the invisible force field penetrated his body, blocking all outside detection. Then he poured himself a glass of highland barley wine and sipped it slowly. He had recently been reabsorbing elemental energy to neutralize his body and was unwilling to commit murder. But if it offends him, he doesn't mind letting these four people never return to the sea.

He had already seen that these four people were from the Sea Clan. Two of them were high-level physical masters, and the other two were also at the top of the mid-level. They were very powerful. Why did the Sea Clan travel thousands of miles to come to the wasteland next door? They are four powerful physical masters.

The sky was completely dark, and another black off-road vehicle came into the oasis and went straight to the door of the hotel to stop.

Two soldiers carrying silver tubular weapons stepped out of the car first, looking for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com. They were dressed in khaki military uniforms with a pair of black sunglasses, and the silver tubular firearms in their hands. They looked like Very majestic.

After the two soldiers got out of the car, they immediately stood on both sides with guns on guard. Then another young man with dark skin and a somewhat tiger-like head walked out of the car and opened the rear door diligently.

A bright and charming girl stepped out of the car lightly. The girl looked to be no more than sixteen or seventeen years old. She had a white and delicate face with a melon seed. She was slender and looked a little frail.

After getting out of the car, the girl first looked at the sky, then walked towards the hotel, entered the lobby, glanced around with her big eyes, locked on the old man, and said in a voice like an oriole: "Uncle Hu, how are you doing lately?"

The old man stood up and laughed: "I thought there was another annoying guy here, but it turned out to be Xiaolei. He hasn't grown so big in a few years. How is Old Lin's injury now?"

The girl smiled and replied: "Thank you for your concern, Uncle Hu. Father, he is in good health now."

"Okay, okay, come with me."

The two walked into the back hall, and the remaining three people immediately stood guard at the door, looking at everyone in the hall with cold eyes.
