Chapter 1757: A Strange River, Even Saints Can Hardly Cross It!

Today's third update: Chapter 1757! 3/4!

...

After finishing the first two things, Xu Kun naturally set out for Tongtian River. Xu Kun was very curious about the natural barrier.

Tongtian River stands between the Western Regions and the Western Liang Women's Kingdom. Not only are there monsters in the river, but it is also said that Tongtian River has its own weirdness.

This weirdness is called: Saints can't cross it!

It is said that if you want to cross Tongtian River at an inappropriate time, even if you are a Saint, you may fall into the river and die!

That means that if you don't get attacked by the monsters in Tongtian River, you can't get up after falling into Tongtian River.

Xu Kun checked the information and found that no one could explain it.

"How can a river be so wide that even Saints can't cross it?"

It is true that Tongtian River is very wide, but Saints can ignore the terrain and directly cross from one side of the river to the other side of the river.

The saying that Saints don't cross it is too fantasy.

Although the Western Liang Women's Kingdom lost contact with the outside world, it does not mean that no one traveled back and forth to Tongtian River. Some people, holding the idea that the greater the risk, the greater the profit, made business in the Western Liang Women's Kingdom as a way of survival.

Yes, this strange river that is said to be not crossed by saints has actually been crossed by some weak merchants who have traveled back and forth on both sides more than once.

When Xu Kun learned the news, he was shocked.

Because the Western Liang Women's Kingdom is in a closed situation, although the Angel Clan controls it, it does not govern it in any way, resulting in the current situation of this country being very barren.

Some resources that exist in the outside world are very rare for the Western Liang Women's Kingdom.

Merchants who travel back and forth to Tongtian River said that if they took ordinary goods worth one to the Western Liang Women's Kingdom, they could get a hundred times the profit there.

This profit was earned by the subjects of the Western Liang Women's Kingdom who struggled in the Haotian Tower.

In other words, the survival of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom is very difficult, even worse than that of the Wuyue Demon Cat Clan, which needs to survive by stealing. The country's strength is low, and the output in the Haotian Tower is all exchanged with merchants for very ordinary survival supplies from the outside world!

It is a profitable business to travel to the Xiliang Women's Kingdom, but it does not mean that these merchants can ignore the strange natural dangers of the Tongtian River. Even old merchants have times when they slip.

Every year, hundreds of thousands of merchants travel between the two places, but more than half of them will die in the Tongtian River, and some of them are fine when they go, but fall into the river and die when they come back!

However, due to the huge profits, even if they know that there is a risk of death when they set foot on the Tongtian River, there are still endless merchants rushing to the east bank of the Tongtian River.

Therefore, a non-national merchant gathering place was formed there.

In that merchant gathering place, there is a large family, which was established by the first merchant who took the lead after gaining profits. The whole family makes a living by selling goods to the Xiliang Women's Kingdom.

Since the ancestor of this family was named Chen, this gathering place, or the riverside city called the port, was named: Chenjiazhuang!

(Ahem, some students may be familiar with this. Yes, in "Journey to the West", Chenjiazhuang, which contributed boys and girls to the Tongtian River Inspiration King, made a living by selling goods to the Women's Kingdom~)

So, after solving the problems of the Western Regions, Xu Kun planned to go to Chenjiazhuang and start crossing the river to the Xiliang Women's Kingdom.

The next thing naturally did not require so many troops, so Xu Kun only brought some of his close people and told everyone what he was going to do next and the dangers he might encounter.

Everyone knew that they had to go to the Heavenly Kingdom to bring back Zhan Rourou, but what they didn't know was that there was a Tongtian River blocking them.

Even Xuan was stunned: "Saints don't cross? Is there any saying about this Tongtian River?"

Xu Kun glanced at her and shook his head: "There are few records about this river. I have searched all the information but can't find out anything. I can only describe it as 'weird'."

Li Taibai came up and said meanly: "Boss, I heard that the Xiliang Women's Kingdom is a real women's kingdom. If we go there, wouldn't it be..."

Before Xu Kun could speak, a figure grabbed his hand. Although it was difficult to move, he still pulled Xu Kun back a few steps to prevent him from communicating with Li Taibai, who was now sly.

Li Taibai was stunned. He first looked at the other party and then at Dong Zaitian. As expected, Dong Zaitian had a bitter face, but then he smiled freely.

"You are here?" Looking at Chu Weiwei, who was inconvenient to move, Xu Kun smiled.

Chu Weiwei was stunned for a moment. She swore that this was the first time Xu Kun spoke to her so gently.

She, who has always been introverted, nodded with a bright smile.

"It's over, Zaitian, don't dare to have any ideas about her in the future. She is your sister-in-law now. It's wrong to love your sister-in-law, understand?" Li Taibai saw this scene and rubbed salt into Dong Zaitian's wound.

Dong Zaitian glanced at him and said, "Put away your dirty thoughts. Xu Kun... is indeed the best destination for her. I wish her the best."

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to be so innocent. It's okay. If it's not yours, don't think about it. I tell you, I have inquired about the Xiliang Women's Country. The whole country is full of women, and they are all as exotic as the countries in the Western Regions. We followed the boss there, just have fun, I guarantee you won't want to go home!"

Dong Zaitian was too lazy to pay attention to him. He looked around and asked in confusion, "Where is Shangguan Heying?"

Li Taibai shrugged: "Who knows where the female Tyrannosaurus went? Could they have gone to look for the little puppy? It's a pity that they don't like a man as charming as me."

Dong Zaitian looked at him dimly and said: "Don't you know that they like Xu Kun?"

Ah?

Li Taibai froze: "Xu Kun, I will never forgive you!"

"What did you say?" Xu Kun turned his head and looked over.

Li Taibai immediately turned into a good boy and said: "I wish you great fortune, Boss!"

Dong Zaitian: ...Where is your backbone?
