Half an hour later, outside the east gate of the city.
Because it was in the desert, the walls of the city were made of sand and soil. But even so, the momentum was very magnificent. The city walls were three feet high, and the city gate was two feet wide. There were many people going in and out, and some carriages going in and out.
Lu An stood outside the city gate. The sandstorm around the city was even more serious, almost making people unable to open their eyes. However, Lu An released a layer of Fate Wheel in front of his eyes, and looked up at the three big words written on the city gate.
Great Wilderness City.
Lu An looked at the name and thought that the name was very suitable for the city. Being in such a huge desert, he didn't know what the people here relied on to survive.
Lu An looked at the people coming in and out of the city gate. Everyone was wearing clothes that looked very rough, but in fact, the material was very good. At the very least, it could prevent the sand and dust from entering the clothes in such a strong wind. Perhaps because the environment here was not good, the people here were wearing very simple clothes, and no one was wearing luxurious clothes.
Thinking of this, Lu An found a corner and went underground to change his clothes. He didn't want to attract attention, and he had a lot of such clothes in his ring.
After changing his clothes, Lu An entered the city. When Lu An entered the city, he found that the situation inside was no different from what he expected. It was still an ordinary building, and the highest was only four floors. And these buildings were very casual. Some were made of sand, and some were built by Earth Masters or Wood Masters, but the style of the construction was very casual.
With such an architectural style, the buildings in the entire Great Wilderness City could be described as strange and without any order. Even a small town in the countryside would not be so unplanned.
Walking in the Great Wilderness City, Lu An found that there were indeed a lot of people in the Great Wilderness City. Moreover, each of them looked burly and ferocious. Not only that, from Lu An's' Scorching Sun 9 Suns', he could sense that Heavenly Masters could be seen everywhere in Grand Wilderness City. Lu An did not even see anyone who was not a Heavenly Master. Could it be that the entire Grand Wilderness City was a Heavenly Master?
However, if that was really the case, why did these Heavenly Masters give up a good life and come to this place where there was nothing?
Lu An was very puzzled, but he could ask someone. After walking for a long time, he finally saw a tavern and walked in. After entering the tavern, he found that there were several tables of people eating. When Lu An appeared, everyone immediately looked at him.
Perhaps because they realized that Lu An was very young, these people's eyes were filled with doubt, but there was even more hostility and killing intent. This made Lu An even more puzzled. He had never provoked these people before, so why were they so unfriendly towards him? Could it be that he had done something wrong?
Lu An looked around and found a corner to sit down. The waiter walked up to Lu An from the side. However, what surprised Lu An was that the waiter was also a Celestial Master.
"What do you want to eat?" The waiter's tone was very stiff, even cold, as he looked at Lu An impatiently and asked.
"Just some appetizers." Lu An looked at the waiter and said in a normal tone, "And I want to inquire about something."
"Inquiring about things requires money!" The waiter said directly, without hiding anything, "Take out the money and we'll talk!"
Lu An was surprised when he heard this. It was natural to ask for money, but the waiter's attitude really surprised him. Moreover, Lu An found that the other people in the tavern were still looking at him. He did not want to cause trouble under the watchful eyes of the public, so he took out a few gold coins.
"Is this enough?" Lu An asked.
The waiter glanced at the money on the table, directly picked it up and put it away. He looked at Lu An and asked, "What do you want to ask? Ask away!"
"I'm new here, so I don't know anything about the Great Wilderness City. I want to know about the Great Wilderness City." Lu An said.
Hearing Lu An's words, not only the waiter was surprised, but the guests at the other tables were also surprised. The waiter immediately frowned and asked Lu An, "Are you kidding me? You don't know about the Great Wilderness City? How did you get here? "
"This …." Lu An was somewhat startled and said, "I came here by accident, please tell me more about it."
Hearing Lu An's words, the waiter frowned even more. However, since he had taken someone's money, he had to take care of someone else's misfortune. The waiter directly sat down and said to Lu An, "If you don't even know about the Great Desolate City, then you must have been sent here by someone. I can tell you that the person who sent you here must hate you to the bone. "
"…." Lu An slightly frowned and did not speak.
The waiter glanced at Lu An again, and casually drew a map on the table and said, "This is a huge desert, the size of a small country, called the Shikukan Desert. There are a total of five cities in the Shikukan Desert, located in the north, south, west, and east, the distance from the edge of the desert is the same as the distance from the center. There is also a city located in the center of the Shikukan Desert. "
"It's here, the Great Wilderness City."
With that, the waiter tapped the table with his finger. At this time, Lu An realized that he had actually come to the center of the desert.
"There are many countries around the Shikukan Desert, but they are all small countries. However, the Shikukan Desert is an ownerless land that does not belong to any country. In other words, no country's laws can control this place. Here, you can do whatever you want, as long as you can do it. "
Lu An was shocked when he heard these words, he vaguely felt that this place was not simple.
"You have seen the environment here, even birds don't shit, there is nothing here. The most expensive things are water and food. After all, it is not easy to get goods from the surrounding countries. There are countless bandits in the Shikukan Desert, and there is a danger of being robbed at any time. The probability of the goods being delivered in good condition is less than 30%. The most important thing here is to fill your stomach. "
With that, the waiter looked at Lu An and asked, "Are you also a Taoist master?"
Lu An thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes."
"I didn't know that you are a Taoist master at such a young age." The waiter looked at Lu An, but waved his hand and said, "But in the Shikukan Desert, almost everyone is a Taoist master. Do you know why they come here?"
Lu An shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"There are three kinds of Taoist masters here." The waiter saw that Lu An really didn't know, so he raised a finger and said, "The first kind is fugitives wanted by the country. Once they are wanted, because of the relationship with the surrounding countries, even if they run to other countries, they are likely to be caught. In addition, they don't want to leave their homes, so they come here. "
"The second kind is people who want revenge." The waiter raised a second finger and said, "Here, there are a lot of people whose families have been destroyed. Because their enemies are too powerful, they had no choice but to escape here. They want revenge, so they come here to find helpers, and also to train themselves. There are people dying here every moment, so if they can survive here, they have the strength to go back and take revenge. "
"There is also the third kind of people, we call them evil stars." The waiter raised a third finger and said, "This kind of people is not for anything else, they just like to kill and rob, and do evil things. In the country, there will be people to control them, but in the Shikukan Desert, no one can control them. As long as they don't bully them, no matter how much they kill, they will not participate. It can be said that this is their paradise. "
"… …"
Hearing the waiter's explanation, Lu An frowned slightly, but there was no more expression on his face. He asked again, "Is there any rule in the Great Wilderness City? Or are there any rules in the Shikukan Desert? "
"Of course there are rules, there are rules everywhere, but here it is a convention, and there is not much enforcement." The waiter shrugged and said, "Generally speaking, evil stars are not allowed to exist in these five cities. Compared to the desert outside, they are relatively safe, but that is only relatively speaking. You can still kill people here, but if you want to destroy the city or kill a large number of people, there will still be people to control you. "
"In other words, these five cities are for the first two kinds of people to live in. As for the evil stars, they are distributed in various places in the Shikukan Desert, waiting for the arrival of their prey at any time." The waiter said.
"Are there any big forces in the Great Wilderness City?" Lu An asked again, "How is the strength of the most powerful Celestial Masters?"
"There are, but there are too many of them, and it is too troublesome to talk about." The waiter waved his hand and said impatiently, "And even if someone is strong enough, they will not call themselves king in the Great Wilderness City. That is simply offending the entire Shikukan Desert. No one is allowed to have absolute authority here. Everyone is just protecting themselves. After all, except for the evil stars, everyone's ambition is not here. "
"As for the most powerful Celestial Masters, I don't know. Everyone has no contact with each other, and no one knows when they will die. How can they have time to know so many things?" The waiter got up and said to Lu An, "Okay, I have said a lot. I don't have time to waste with you."
Lu An was stunned and could only watch the waiter walk away. He fell into deep thought. It seemed that the Great Wilderness City was full of dangers. Was it really the right choice to cultivate in such a dangerous place?
At this moment, the waiter, who had walked a few steps, suddenly stopped and turned to look at Lu An again. He said loudly, "Seeing that you are young, I kindly remind you that in the Great Wilderness City, you have to be careful when you sleep!"
Lu An was stunned when he heard this. He looked up at the waiter and asked, "What do you mean?"
"I just said that it costs a lot to eat and drink here. Where do you think those people who have been living here for a long time get their money from?" The waiter sneered and said, "They will pick on the newcomers. People like you, who don't seem to have any ability, are simply a meal delivered to their door."
Lu An was stunned when he heard this. Only now did he realize why these people were constantly staring at him, and only now did he clearly see the meaning behind the cold smiles on the corners of their mouths.
