Chapter 406

Under the influence of Longxiang temple and ascetic monks, there are many temples and countless monks in the western regions.

This is especially true in this desert land.

Monks wearing Tibetan green robes and bareheaded sandals can often be seen passing by.

However, most of them are mortals, and only a few are real practitioners.

Lu Qingshan looked at the little monk more.

In addition to wearing the light red cassock that can be worn by monks, the appearance of this little monk is also different from that of people in the desert.

The little monk has red lips and white teeth. He looks very beautiful. At first glance, he has a strange bone.

Lu Qingshan can also feel a long breath of Qi on the young monk.

This is obviously a monk.

I just don't know whether I have learned special skills or have special tools. Lu Qingshan can't find out the specific accomplishments of the little monk.

The origin of this little monk is not simple.

Lu Qingshan concluded.

But that's not what he should care about.

His top priority is to collect the information he needs.

"Childe, what should we do next?" Qin Yitian, who loved this kind of environment very much since he entered the desert with abundant Huoyuan and tuyuan, became more active. He changed his lazy temper and asked.

"First go to the shop opened by the friar of dongque tribe and buy the most accurate map of Mogao desert." Lu Qingshan said.

In such a big desert, the map is absolutely the most important thing.

Lu Qingshan pulled a passer-by and asked about the largest shop in the city.

In cities where monks and mortals live together, the largest shops must be run by monks.

According to the directions of passers-by, Lu Qingshan walked for a long time, and the shop called "East bird" appeared in his sight.

From this name, we can see that the owner behind the shop is the leader of dongque city and dongque tribe.

Walking slowly into the shop, Lu Qingshan glanced around.

Although it is the largest shop in dongque ancient city, there are not many monks in it. It looks cold and desolate,

However, the friars wandering in the shop are all haunted by the unique ruggedness of physical cultivation, and their clothes are also casual and rough.

This situation must be attributed to the unique atmosphere of physical cultivation.

Among the six schools of cultivation, sword cultivation specializes in Benming sword, and the demand for magic tools is relatively low.

But compared with physical cultivation, sword cultivation is nothing.

Because the body is repaired, the body is repaired.

In the view of physical cultivation, too many magic tools will affect and hinder their practice.

Moreover, in their concept, no matter how many and strong foreign objects are, they are foreign objects after all. How can they have their own flesh body to be secure?

Therefore, an individual cultivator often has only one or two magic tools on his body. In some extreme physical cultivation, he can't even see a magic tool all over his body.

In addition, most of the resources of physical cultivation are used to buy spiritual medicine forging body.

Therefore, according to the statistics of good people, among the six practices, physical practice is the poorest.

Therefore, there is a saying that robbing the road does not rob the body.

The skin is rough and the flesh is thick. It's a hard bone to chew. If you don't say it, you still have nothing. You're poor and jingling.

It's not a brain problem to get along with these people. What else can it be?

Lu Qingshan doesn't agree with the concept of physical cultivation, because in his opinion, the sword is definitely not an external object, but something as important as his own life.

But in the same way, Lu Qingshan will never reject this concept of practice.

After all, the path of cultivation should be a hundred flowers bloom, and all roads lead to Rome.

There is no best, only the most suitable.

Sword repair is the most suitable way for him.

........

At the counter of the shop sat an old man with white hair, half closed his eyes, as if he were recuperating.

Seeing Lu Qingshan coming in, the old man didn't welcome the guests very warmly.

This is also the characteristic of the wild land of West desert.

In such a prosperous place and hospitality in the southern region, it is difficult to retain those Dharma Masters who claim to be superior.

Lu Qingshan didn't care. He walked slowly to the counter, "old Sir, can you give me the most accurate and detailed map of Mogao desert?"

Hearing Lu Qingshan's inquiry, the white haired old man opened his eyes and glanced back and forth at Lu Qingshan.

"There are countless dangers in the Mogao desert. Even the dongque tribe, which has lived in the Mogao desert for thousands of years, can't say that it is to find out the Mogao desert."

"This map is made up of the Mogao desert map in the hands of the nine ethnic groups. There can be no more detailed map in the whole Mogao desert," the white haired old man took out a beast skin map made of monster fur. "However, the price is naturally expensive. I don't know if this Taoist friend can afford it?"

Lu Qingshan smiled and said, "I should still be able to afford a map."

The map was paid and delivered with one hand. Finally, it received 20 four grade spirit stones from Lu Qingshan. It really deserves a valuable evaluation.

Lu Qingshan, who has far more assets than ordinary monks, naturally doesn't care about this cost.

"In this Mogao desert, where thunderstorms often break out, I wonder if the old man knows?" Lu Qingshan asked tentatively.

For the sake of a big deal just concluded, the white haired old man is not stingy to say more with Lu Qingshan.

He unfolded the map and pointed at three places on the map. "Do you see the signs of these three places?"

Hearing the speech, Lu Qingshan quickly looked at the map carefully.

The map purchased at a high price is indeed drawn very finely. It not only marks the settlements of various human tribes in the Mogao desert, but also has warning signs in some places where monsters are active.

The three places referred to by the white haired old man have corresponding thunder signs.

"These three places are the places where thunderstorms occur all year round in our Mogao desert," the white haired old man explained. "This is the information provided by the giant bear tribe.

The monks of the giant bear tribe need to forge their body with the help of thunder, so they know a lot about the thunder prone place in the Mogao desert. "

"However," the white haired old man paused, thought for a moment, and said meaningfully, "if you need the help of thunder to practice any technique, you'd better go to the thunderstorm areas in the northeast and Southeast, and the Northwest... If you can, you'd better not go."

"Please teach me," said Lu Qingshan, who was already alive in his eyes and handed over a third grade spirit stone.

The white haired old man smiled and swept the spirit stone into his sleeve robe. At the same time, he opened his mouth and explained: "the first two thunderstorm areas are the forging places for the friars of the giant bear tribe.

Because the thunder power there grows very regularly. From the outside to the inside, the thunder gradually becomes violent.

The thunder power in the outermost layer, even the gas refining friar, can carry it for a period of time, and even the Yuan Ying friar can't resist the thunder power in the innermost layer.

This stability makes these two areas suitable for friars in various realms to forge according to their own bearing capacity.

But this last thunderstorm area has no such stability. "

The white haired old man was terrified and said, "the last thunderstorm area is the deepest place close to the Mogao desert, which is inaccessible.

This was accidentally discovered by a Yuanying elder of the giant bear tribe. At that time, he thought he had found another treasure place suitable for forging.

Unexpectedly, he had just explored that area for a while and was still in the outermost security area. Somehow, the originally powerful thunder suddenly burst into frenzy.

The power of those thunder suddenly increased so that even he could not resist it. He had to flee in a hurry. Fortunately, he had not gone deep at that time, so he escaped from the restricted area soon.

But in this way, he was hurt a lot and came back to recuperate for several years before he finally recovered.

So since then, the thunderstorm area has been designated as a restricted area by the giant bear tribe.

Even friar Yuanying is in such a mess, so you'd better not enter... "

With the ancient jade walking at night, the white haired old man can't see through Lu Qingshan's cultivation, but Lu Qingshan is so young and doesn't have any twilight. Obviously, his real age won't be much older.

In the old man's mind, Lu Qingshan is a golden pill friar, probably a foundation friar.

Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, "thank you for your advice."

Although he promised, Lu Qingshan understood that nine times out of ten the place where the raw thunder fruit was located was in the restricted area.

The reason is not difficult to explain.

The other two areas are the forging places of the giant bear friars. If Lei Guo really grew, it should have been discovered by the giant bear friars over the years. How could it have been more than ten years before they fully matured in the world, which would have triggered the blood disaster?

When he got the news he wanted, Lu Qingshan turned and walked out.

When Lu Qingshan's figure disappeared into the shop, the white haired old man narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a moment. Suddenly, he took out a communication token from his sleeve, and the power worked. The communication token suddenly flashed a little light.

"It's a forbidden area that can't even resist the physical training during the yuan infant period..." Lu Qingshan rubbed his eyebrows with a headache when he walked out of the shop.

Roughly determined the location of Shenglei fruit, but how to get it has become a difficult problem.

The strength of sword cultivation lies in attack, and defense has always been a difficult problem in sword cultivation.

Lu Qingshan also failed to overcome this defect.

Even with five elements of sword armor, he can't guarantee that he can withstand the thunder in the restricted area.

This is no joke. If you don't get it right, you'll lose your life.

But he had to take this ripe fruit.

"It seems that we can only use foreign objects." after pondering for a moment, Lu Qingshan had a plan in his heart.

He hurried into the city. After getting the news he wanted, he also hurried out of the city.

The body sweeps straight up and goes towards the giant bear city of the giant bear tribe according to the guidance of the map.

.........

In the vast desert, the wind and sand raged and the sun burst.

Lu Qingshan, who turned into a rainbow, finally met the first practitioner after leaving dongque city.

It was a bald monk who was naked and only had a narrow cloth to cover the sensitive parts of his lower body. He was walking barefoot in the desert.

The monk didn't urge any spiritual power to protect himself, so the yellow sand, which was as hot as iron particles on a hot pot, was already the soles of the monks who had just refined their Qi and burned one wound after another.

This is the most famous ascetic monk in the western regions.

Ascetic monk is not a kind of inheritance, but a way of practice and belief.

General physical training is about the body.

An ascetic monk, he cultivates his mind while cultivating himself.

In their view, without a strong inner body, no matter how strong it is, it is just an empty bag.

If you have no distractions, you can achieve positive results.

This is the practice concept of ascetic monks.

They force themselves to endure what ordinary people think is painful to exercise endurance and desire.

The word ascetic originally means "heat" in Sanskrit, so this heat is the main means of ascetic monk's practice.

The deserts have become the haunts of these ascetic monks.

If the ascetic monk really achieves great success in this way of practice, I'm afraid people will become a wood without desire.

It's good to be just without desire, but at the same time, there is no humanity.

This is a terrible thing, because without humanity, it can be called holy, but it can also be called magic.

Lu Qingshan is not afraid of the hardships of practice, but he can't agree with this behavior of asking for hardships.

Besides, to cultivate the truth is to cultivate the true nature, not to eliminate the seven emotions and six desires.

If that's the case, it's better not to repair it.

Although he has some complaints about the concept of ascetic monks, Lu Qingshan still has some respect for these practitioners who can tolerate what ordinary people can't tolerate.

He slowly landed in front of the young ascetic monk, folded his hands, made a monk's salute, and politely asked, "do you know which direction the giant bear city should go?"

Yes, even if there is a map, Lu Qingshan is still lost.

After leaving dongque City, he encountered a sandstorm. After leaving the sandstorm, he lost his way.

Although in the evening, when the stars appear, he can get back on track.

But since I met an ascetic monk and asked for a way to save some time, why not?

If the ascetic monk dares to experience like this in the desert, he naturally has a set of methods to identify his own direction. Unlike Lu Qingshan, he can only rely on the stars in the sky for positioning.

Seeing Lu Qingshan falling from the sky, the ascetic monk knew that Lu Qingshan was at least a monk during the foundation period. He also folded his hands, returned to Lu Qingshan and politely said, "Taoist friend, wait a moment."

Then he grabbed a wisp of fine sand from the yellow sand under his feet and sprinkled it gently.

The fine sand drifted with the wind. The ascetic monk didn't know what method to use. Unexpectedly, he identified the specific direction from it, pointed to the opposite direction of the fine sand and said, "this Taoist friend, giant bear city should be in this direction."

"Thank you, monk." Lu Qingshan said gratefully.

Then Lu Qingshan rose up again and followed the direction pointed by the ascetic monk.

The ascetic monk didn't take this chance encounter in the desert seriously. He immediately continued to walk barefoot in the hot sun.

..............

But half an hour later.

Whoosh!

More than ten figures fell from the sky and fell in front of the ascetic monk.

The leader was an ugly male monk with a black birthmark on his face. His face was fierce and his tone was very cold. "Monk, have you seen a monk passing through the sky?"

The ascetic monk's heart thumped.

Since he chose to practice asceticism in the Mogao desert, he naturally has a certain understanding of the amorous characters in the Mogao desert.

The face of the man in front of him, the black birthmark, was so conspicuous that he recognized his identity at a glance.

The evil monk who is wanted by Da Xia is a monk in the middle of Yuanying. He is poisoned.

He was wanted by Xia because he practiced evil skills and mutilated mortals. When he was desperate, he was poisoned. Finally, he fled to the Mogao desert and joined the sand bandits.

With his cultivation and cruel means, he gradually became a small leader among the sand bandits, who was specially responsible for intercepting and killing the so-called "fat sheep".

The Mogao desert is so big that I don't even see a bird on weekdays. How can friars be so easy to meet?

The ascetic monk now knew that the poison must have come for the young monk who asked him for directions.
