Chapter 941 Return to Tiandou City

Xu Hei raised his hand and pressed it, and the spiritual energy poured out. He continuously shot several pills in an attempt to prevent his death.

However, everything was in vain.

Gu Beize might have died long ago. What supported him was just a wisp of remnant thoughts. With the last words, he rushed to the first person who saw him.

When that sentence came out, his mind was fulfilled, his body dissipated, and his body and soul were destroyed.

This young master Gu Beize, who had a trace of righteousness, died in front of Xu Hei. Xu Hei and him only met a few times, and his death was sudden and strange.

Fortunately, the scene just now was habitually recorded by Xu Hei.

"Is Tiandou City in trouble?" Xu Hei raised his eyebrows.

Tiandou City, as a city in Nanhuangzhou, is naturally under the jurisdiction of Nanhuang City.

The City Lord's Mansion would often send some elders out to exchange materials. Tiandou City is an important place for mineral deposits.

The rock gold crystal, the sky sand crystal, the earth vein spirit spring, etc. are all abundant in the Golden Desert area. The earth core steatite has also been discovered.

Xu Hei did not dare to neglect it and immediately took people back to the Law Enforcement Hall to report the news.

After reading the jade slip, Yang Tianling immediately set off and went to the City Lord's Mansion in the inner city.

An hour later, the order came down.

"The garrison of Tiandou City has been out of contact for three days. Something has indeed happened there."

"For such a small city, the City Lord's Mansion is unwilling to make a big move and let us solve it ourselves." Yang Tianling said.

"What? Solve it by ourselves?"

Xu Hei was unbelievable.

The cities under their jurisdiction were actually asked to solve them? What a joke?

"There are thousands of such small cities in the entire Nanhuang Province. As long as it is not a big event of alien invasion, the City Lord's Mansion will generally not come forward in person."

Yang Tianling looked at Xu Hei.

"For a jade slip with unclear records like this, I find it hard to believe that Tiandou City will be in any danger based on one-sided statements."

"Even if there is a change, letting us solve it is also giving us a chance. This is an order issued by the City Lord's Mansion. If you handle it well, you are likely to get four-star merit."

Yang Tianling walked up to Xu Hei, patted his shoulder, and said earnestly: "This is your chance, you must seize it!"

Xu Hei fell silent.

A big crisis that may destroy a city, in Yang Tianling's view, is an opportunity to make merit.

Since the above is arranged in this way, Xu Hei is unwilling to say more, he just does it.

Afterwards, Yang Tianling called two more people.

They are Hei Huang and Linghu Shanshui.

In addition to Xu Hei, there is a total of one middle-stage Poxus and two early-stage Poxus, which is enough to deal with most dangers.

"You three, take people to investigate Tiandou City, go and come back quickly." Yang Tianling said.

"Yes!" The three said in unison.

…………

At the gate of Nanhuang City

The three-man team had a total of fifty people.

Xu Hei had eight men under him, Hei Huang had twelve, and Linghu Shanshui had thirty men under him, including alchemists, array masters, poison masters... all kinds of cultivators.

Compared to Xu Hei and the other two, Linghu was considered an old senior.

At this time, a loud laugh came from afar.

"Fellow Daoists, wait a minute!"

Xu Hei looked over and saw Wang Teng, dressed in a red robe, galloping from afar and stopping in front of everyone.

"What can I do for you, brother Wang?" Hei Huang said with a smile.

"I heard that you brothers are going out to perform tasks. Although I can't accompany you, it is still necessary to provide some support."

Wang Teng raised his hand and waved it, and a palm-sized cloud boat appeared in his palm, and then quickly enlarged to more than a hundred feet.

This volume is enough to accommodate thousands of people.

"This cloud ship can avoid wind and sand, and has a built-in concealment effect. It can travel freely in the sky or in the desert. Just treat it as a vehicle for the three of you." Wang Teng said with a smile.

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately. With such a big ship, it would be much more convenient for them to travel.

Hei Huang's eyes lit up, and he took the cloud ship and said, "Then it's better to obey than to be respectful."

Xu Hei hid far away, fearing that he would be contaminated by karma.

"Hahaha, I wish you all the best!"

Wang Teng laughed.

Linghu Shanshui touched his chin and said to himself, "The Wang family has a branch in Tiandou City, so I can take care of it."

Others have done a favor, so he should give a little help.

…………

Golden Desert, above the clouds.

A huge ship passed quickly, and the scenery on both sides quickly retreated, but no wind could be heard around.

Even when passing through the sandstorm area, the cloud ship did not move at all, which shows that the stability of this ship is absolutely top-notch. The birds and beasts encountered did not find the cloud ship.

The journey to Tiandou City is long, and even at the speed of the cloud ship, it will take a week.

Everyone rested in the cabin to recuperate.

Xu Hei was wrapped in a thick layer of crystal armor, holding a defensive array plate, fully armed.

"Xu Daoyou, there is still more than half of the journey to Tiandou City, why are you so nervous?" Linghu Shanshui asked in confusion.

"Nothing, it's just a personal habit, Linghu Daoyou can ignore it." Xu Hei smiled.

Linghu Shanshui frowned slightly, but did not ask more questions.

It is inevitable that newcomers are nervous when they go out on a mission for the first time, and he can understand it.

Xu Hei closed his eyes, opened the eyes of his mind, and his consciousness penetrated the cloud ship to scout in all directions.

There was no danger outside, and there was nothing abnormal inside the cloud ship.

Hei Huang sat cross-legged in the cabin, very honest, which made Xu Hei slightly relieved.

But Xu Hei did not dare to relax. He would open his mind's eye every once in a while and investigate everywhere.

"It turns out that our captain is also nervous!"

"This is the first time I have seen the captain look like this."

The eight members of Xu Hei's team all showed surprise. They had followed Xu Hei for five years and had never seen Xu Hei afraid.

"If you really encounter danger, Yan'er, you must protect the captain."

A female team member teased.

"Don't talk nonsense, the captain is so powerful that he doesn't need my protection."

Liu Yan'er smiled, but her eyes flashed with expectation.

…………

Suddenly, a week passed.

Getting closer and closer to Tiandou City, Xu Hei suggested sending a team to investigate first.

Linghu Shanshui thought it was unnecessary. How could a small city like Tiandou City be dangerous? He never took this mission seriously from beginning to end.

Xu Hei could only gather the eight people together and be ready to abandon the ship and escape at any time.

Unknowingly, everyone crossed the last desert and came to the outside of the city.

Looking around, Tiandou City is like a entrenched dragon, located in the golden desert, with fertile land and oases everywhere. It is a rare treasure in the desert.

Caravans outside the city come and go, and monks walk in a hurry, without any abnormality.

"Huh? Strange." Xu Hei looked suspicious.

This is the same scene as when he first came to Tiandou City. Everything is thriving and there is no sign of weirdness.

It seems that everything is a misunderstanding.

Did Gu Beize lie?

But Xu Hei knew Gu Beize's character. The information he brought before his death, that kind of strong obsession, how could it be a joke?
