From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 1045
Chapter 1045 Head Tower
“Bang ~”
A flying steel saber suddenly fell to the ground with a loud explosion as if it had been struck by a Body Setting Talisman. Even the entire blade of the saber fell into the sand. However, Chen Guangda, who threw out the steel saber, wiped the sweat off his face and said without surprise, “Ba Tu! The villain is indifferent. Let the brothers take off their horses’ palms!”
“Dismount the horse’s palm!”
Ba Tu and the others got off the horse without hesitation. They skillfully used their daggers to pry up the Iron Horse Palm. Chen Guangda also jumped off the horse and took out a kettle to drink slowly. However, Qiqig ran up excitedly and said, “This place is really strange. It’s like a big magnet. I haven’t been here since the catastrophe!”
“It won’t be long before you regret coming to such a damn place …”
Chen Guangda looked at the desolate Great Gobi expressionlessly. This was the first time he discovered that the Evil Desert was actually this big. It had been almost three days since they left. Who knew that they had just reached the edge of the Evil Desert? Wang Ran also walked over and took off the scarf on his head. “The nearest oasis is Haloxylon Lake, but I suggest you go to Lower Sand City.”
“Front line?”
Chen Guangda looked at her in surprise. Wang Ran explained, “A small portion of the lower six continents do not have a magnetic field. We are used to calling the half without a magnetic field the front line. Lower Sand City is the only place without a magnetic field, and it is also the most well-informed Gold Marketing Cave. If you are looking for a bearded man to sell female slaves, you will definitely go there!”
“Alright! Let’s go to Lower Sand City …”
Chen Guangda nodded without any hesitation and directly took out all the metal items on his body and threw them on the ground. However, Ba Tu secretly pulled him aside and whispered, “If she wants us to go to Desert City, would she be lying to us again? I don’t think this woman can believe it!”
“You’ve been bitten by a snake once in a day, and you’ve been afraid of the well rope for ten years …”
Chen Guangda patted his shoulder with both laughter and irony, saying, “She is a liar but not an idiot. She knows who can offend and who can’t offend. What Jiang Xiangsect cares about is not cheating, not cheating gangsters, not cheating orphans and widows, and not cheating the same person a second time!”
“Then none of us seem to be …”
Ba Tu twisted his fingers in confusion, but Chen Guangda laughed out loud. After saying that you should slowly comprehend it, he directly got on the horse and left Ba Tu scratching his head. He couldn’t figure out what kind of people they were. However, Qiqig walked over and said, “Idiot! You’ve already been tricked by someone. She’s not stupid to lie to you again!”
“Hmph ~ I will never be tricked again …”
Ba Tu clenched his fists in anger, but Qiqi Ge was filled with disbelief. After chatting with Chen Guangda for a while, he threw down his weapons and ammunition and officially entered the Evil Man Desert. However, in just half an hour, their moods were suddenly shrouded in a dark cloud.
Under a tilted-necked tree in front of him, there was actually a head tower that was completely piled up with human heads. There were at least a hundred of them, large and small. There were even many cooked human bones scattered around. However, the most shocking thing was the large number of corpses hanging on the tree. They were densely packed like old bacon hanging on a tree.
“This is the Evil Man Desert …”
Chen Guangda slowed down, his face sinking like water. The faces of the men became even more unsightly. It could be seen that many of the corpses belonged to herdsmen. The clothes they wore were obviously different from those of outsiders. Jeddah roared angrily, “Who did this? Why are they targeting us like this?”
“I’m not targeting you, I’m warning you …”
Wang Ran shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said, “In ancient times, this type of head tower was called the Jingguan Temple. Now it is specifically used to warn you. These people who were hanged were killed by professional slave hunters. Most of them were like you. Some of their relatives or wives were captured by the slave hunters, but when they chased after them, they even put their lives at stake!”
“Beasts! They are all beasts …”
Jeddah was so angry that his entire body was trembling. Wang Ran sighed and said, “The Lower Six Continents are places where people eat people. It can’t be said that they are all bad people, but at least eight of the ten people are villains with human faces and beast hearts. Moreover, the power of the professional slave hunting team is not small. They practically run through the entire interest chain of the Northwest.”
“Is it this exaggerated …”
Chen Guangda was also surprised. However, Wang Ran said confidently, “so exaggerate, “The slave hunting squad’s claws can reach as far as Russia. They will sell our female slaves and then sell the captured foreign girls to Western Xia. Moreover, they are not only selling female slaves, they even dare to sell drugs and ammunition. Therefore, all kinds of interest groups in the northwest have countless connections with the slave hunting squad, including your army!”
“According to what you said, we’re going to eat a hard bone this time …”
Chen Guangda’s eyes narrowed slightly, and Wang Ran said, “If I were to face you head-on, I would definitely not be a match for the entire Middle Five Continents. However, I will definitely be able to escape before you attack. At that time, you will never be able to find your captured relatives. The bearded man you are looking for must be a member of the slave hunting squad!”
“From what you mean, you want us to be gentle …”
Chen Guangda looked at her playfully, but Wang Ran shook his head and said, “I’m just giving advice. It’s up to you guys to decide what to do. However, I suggest that you guys use money first. After all, no one will go against money. It’s better to buy your friend’s money first!”
“No way! We have to save our loved ones, and we have to kill our enemies …”
Jeddah and the others shouted in righteous indignation. They had already forgotten about their own life and death. Chen Guangda smiled and said to Wang Ran, “I owe them my life. Their choice is mine, so I can only let your little plan go to waste, big nun!”
“I…”
Wang Ran’s face immediately turned slightly pale, but he didn’t dare to speak again after opening his mouth. Chen Guangda’s wise eyes clearly saw through her early on, and Chen Guangda smiled as he said, “Big Nun! I advise you to put away that little flower in your stomach. Don’t think that I’m fooling you. My identity as the commander of the army of the Central Five Continents isn’t something you can blow out of!”
More than thirty horses galloped towards the direction of the six continents. Among them, there were more than ten horses that had been captured. However, half a day had passed since they ran. It was only when the sun was about to set that everyone saw a broken earth city from afar, much like the Moonshine Bay Chen Guangda had encountered when he first entered the Evil Men’s Desert.
“This town is called Qiandian. It is the last supply point before leaving the Evil Man Desert. It does not belong to any oasis …”
Wang Ran did his best to serve as a guide. Everyone slowed down and walked towards the small city. However, Wang Ran suddenly looked at Ba Tu and the others and said, “Right! Take off your Mongolian robes. Your clothes are too conspicuous. After you enter, you have to buy new clothes for you!”
“Take off your clothes!”
Ba Tu was the first to take off his robe, Chen Guangda had no choice but to go naked, but Qiqi Ge and Lin Na couldn’t. The two women could only tie their robes around their waist. Unexpectedly, Wang Ran sighed and said, “Ah ~ you guys are from the grasslands. Idiots also know that you are here to seek revenge. I hope you don’t meet the slave hunters!”
“It’s a good time to meet them. Kill them all in one breath …”
Jeddah slapped the stainless steel knife on his waist with murderous intent, but Chen Guangda didn’t say anything. He knew that the slave hunters were at least a hundred people once they came out. Whether it was Crouching Bull Continent or Sabak, there weren’t many people in the chaotic Lower Six Continents. If they encountered the slave hunters, they would have to fight to the death.
The group quickly entered the front shop town. However, although this place looked tattered from the outside, it was much better than the poor Moonshine Bay. At least, there were many shops in the town that seemed to provide supplies for the horses in the past. Everything from bars to stables to brothels was complete, and there were many people coming and going on the streets.
“Why is this place so lively …”
Ba Tu glanced back and forth in confusion. This place was probably much richer than he had imagined. Wang Ran explained, “Most people entering and leaving the grasslands have to pass through this place. Over time, this place has become a small bazaar. Some caravans will buy slaves or supplies here, and then transfer them to other places to continue selling.”
“Then will the person we’re looking for be here …”
Ba Tu immediately looked at her with bright eyes, but Chen Guangda shook his head and said, “Big Beard is deliberately avoiding our pursuit. I’m afraid they won’t follow the normal route, but we can ask the traffickers for information. Perhaps we can find their lair directly!”
As he spoke! Chen Guang looked directly at Wang Ran. Wang Ran could only smile bitterly and nod. This kind of thing would definitely make her a local person. She also stopped in front of a large courtyard with familiarity.
The courtyard was extremely large. Not only was there a three-story building inside, it was also as lively as a vegetable market. Many male and female slaves with collars were dragged around like cattle. They were allowed to pick and choose by the traveling merchants and strip them naked to examine their entire bodies.
“Don’t cause trouble here. This is Old Ghost Wu’s place. You must listen to my arrangements …”
After Wang Ran got off the horse, he handed the reins to the waiter at the entrance and led everyone inside. However, the guard at the entrance suddenly stopped them. He stared at Ba Tu and the others with a hostile expression and said, “We don’t receive people from the grasslands here. Hurry up and go back where you came from, so as to avoid causing trouble!”
“What? Is Brother Gui the richest man in the world? He doesn’t even want to earn money anymore …”
Wang Ran took out a large handful of gold necklaces from his satchel and waved them proudly. The two guards exchanged glances and slowly moved away from the gate. Wang Ran then swaggered for a female guest and threw her a few gold necklaces and said, “Give each of my brothers a set of clothes. I want the most fashionable one!”
“Yes! Boss …”
The little welcoming guest happily agreed, Wang Ran ran to the back hall without thinking that he was in no hurry to bring them to inquire. He went to an arbor and ordered two pots of tea before he sat down and said, “These are all low-grade old-fashioned goods. Foreign girls and big girls are all auctioned in the house, but you should see if you know each other first.”
“Urena! I saw Urena from the Geda Tribe …”
Jeddah suddenly widened his eyes in shock. He saw a few slender female slaves being dragged into the small building with ropes. Unexpectedly, the two men suddenly pulled out their knives and wanted to rush out, but Chen Guangda stopped them and scolded them, “What are you doing? Even your own daughters-in-law will have to endure it!”
“That’s our sister-in-law. We need to save her …”
The two men were so anxious that their faces turned red. They all looked at Ba Tu anxiously. However, Wang Ran stared at Ba Tu and said, “Do you want to die? This place is full of slave hunters. Think about the headtower you saw before. If you rush out now, it will only add bricks and mortar to the headtower!”
“Sit down!”
Ba Tu slammed the table heavily, causing the two men to sit back with grievances on their faces. However, Chen Guangda patted them and said, “Don’t worry! The barbecue requires a mouthful of meat, and it won’t take long to save them. I will help you save them!”
