Chapter 61: 60: One man, one gun, one horse, galloping across the battlefield
"Hmm~"

"delicious!"

In the ceramic bowl, the fish meat was so tender that it needed almost no seasoning, which made Niu Bu feel so satisfied. He had been playing the game "Bai Jia Zhu Dao" for more than half a month, and this was the first time Niu Bu had eaten such delicious food.

The food of the Yancheng Town Beijun is very bad, almost every meal is thick vegetable porridge. Many players such as Niu Bu are simply not used to this kind of food. After many players have finished the thick vegetable porridge with difficulty in the game, they will immediately get some delicious food to reward themselves after logging off.

Now, he can finally satisfy his appetite in the game.

"I apologize to the planner. I thought this game couldn't simulate the top taste buds, but I didn't expect that I was too narrow-minded."

"It's not that the food in the game is bad, it's that the food in the Zhenbei Army is bad!"

Fresh, tender and not greasy.

These four words are the best evaluation of the fish. Niu Bu never expected that the red carp, which looks so ugly, would taste so delicious.

"No wonder you have to fish ten red carps to get one to eat. There's not enough food like this to share among the players!"

Niu Bu took a bite of fish and a sip of soup. While he was satisfying his appetite, messages popped up one after another.

[You eat red carp, and your strength increases by 0.4. ]

[You eat red carp, and your agility increases by 0.6. ]

[You have eaten red carp, and your spiritual energy recovery has improved. 】

When monsters eat humans, it improves their intelligence; when humans eat monsters, it improves their physical fitness and spiritual energy recovery speed in all aspects.

For Niu Bu, who is at the stage of seeking knowledge, the flesh and blood of red carp is very nutritious. After swallowing and absorbing the flesh and blood of red carp, Niu Bu's physical strength increases in all aspects.

"It's delicious and can increase strength. If this thing was placed in Yanlong Country, it would have been eaten to extinction long ago."

Niu Bu ate the meat and drank the soup in big mouthfuls. After he swallowed the whole red carp, he stood up, wiped his mouth, and felt that he had endless energy all over his body.

"Hahaha, it's great!"

Niu Bu contentedly picked up his Mo Dao, rode on his black warhorse, took some dry food and water, opened the map, and headed towards the Iltsk Oasis.

[Be alert, be alert, a trace of corrupted evil is eroding the soul of the player Niu Bu.

The Tongtian Divine Tree cannot separate the corroded evil thoughts for use for the time being. Will it consume energy to block the corroded evil thoughts as a whole? 】

In the General's Mansion, Chu Zhongxing, who was flipping through "Six Strategies", suddenly became serious. He immediately switched his view to Niu Bu and found that Niu Bu was eating red carp.

The soul is the foundation of the player and must not be harmed.

Chu Zhongxing’s soul was connected to the Tongtian Divine Tree. He consumed energy and helped Niu Bu block the corrupted evil thoughts.

"The corrupted evil thoughts eroded Niu Bu's soul?"

"We can't separate this energy for now, so we can only block it as a whole?"

This tip contained a huge amount of information. Chu Zhongxing looked towards the moat with his eyes flickering.

The red carp in the moat is a demon, a monster that everyone in the Imperial Shang Dynasty fears!

And now, the Tongtian Divine Tree popped up a message saying that the Tongtian Divine Tree cannot separate the corroded evil energy for the time being and can only block it.

"Could it be."

Chu Zhongxing had some guesses in his mind. Iltsk Oasis was a small barbarian tribe stronghold closest to Yancheng, and the straight-line distance between the two sides was about 200 kilometers.

Niu Bu rode the black warhorse given to him by Li Yulun and galloped towards the Iltsk Oasis.

Traveling alone in the desert is boring and lonely, but Niu Bu doesn't think so. While perfecting his map, he swings his sword to kill the monsters in his sight.

There are beasts in the desert.

Along the way, Niu Bu has encountered gerbils, sand lizards, rattlesnakes, desert mantises and other animals that live in the desert.

As a warlike player, based on the principle of not letting go of any bit of experience, Niu Bu would chase after all the beasts he met on the road, wielding his Mo Dao and killing them off his horse!
"Hahaha, so cool, so cool, this is the most fun game in my mind!"

Niu Bu was very excited after killing several beasts in the desert. Having grown up watching the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he was eager to ride a horse and kill enemies on the battlefield.

And now, he has finally realized his dream in the game.

One man, one gun, one horse, galloping across the battlefield.

Niu Bu held the sword in one hand and galloped on his horse. At that moment, he felt that he was very much like the Martial Saint Guan Erye.

"Master Guan uses the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, and I use the Mo Dao. I think I can learn from Master Guan and see if I can comprehend a magical power of dragging the sword and slashing!"

Drag-and-slash is Guan Yu's famous skill. Niu Bu felt that since he could comprehend [Eight Steps to Chasing the Moon] on his own, he might be able to comprehend Guan Yu's unique skill, Drag-and-slash, in the game.

Just do it!

Niu Bu had a very strong execution ability. He grabbed the Mo Dao with one hand, pretended to escape, and dragged it backwards.

And at a certain moment, Niu Bu's imaginary enemy caught up with him. Niu Bu suddenly turned around and swung his sword, trying to learn from Guan Yu and complete a 360-degree turn and slash.

Niu Bu swung the Mo Dao up a little bit and then smashed it heavily to the ground. Although he had entered the stage of learning and his strength had improved a lot compared to before, he was still unable to complete the action of dragging the sword and slashing due to his insufficient arm strength.

"My level is too low. I can't turn around and kill. When I reach the realm of self-cultivation, I will try to comprehend the magical power of [Drag Sword Slash]!"

Niu Bu temporarily gave up on learning how to slash with the sword. He changed from dragging the sword upside down to holding it in his right hand and ran towards the Iltsk Oasis.

It took Niu Bu more than six hours to walk the distance of more than 200 kilometers.

On the way to Iltsk Oasis, Niu Bu killed a total of 31 gerbils, 9 sand lizards, 6 desert rattlesnakes, 2 old wolves and a sand python.

Great record!

"We're finally here. Let me see how difficult this small dungeon is!"

The Iltsk Oasis was not far from sight. After arriving near the Iltsk Oasis, Niu Bu did not rush over rashly, but dismounted to replenish food and take a short rest.

Half an hour later, Niu Bu, who had finished his repairs, rode his black warhorse slowly towards the Iltsk Oasis.

As the Iltsk Oasis got closer, the confusion on Niu Bu's face became more and more obvious.

As a small stronghold of the Xianyun tribe, it is understandable that the Iltsk Oasis uses wooden guardrails as city walls, but why is there not even a soldier on guard at the entrance of the wooden city gate?

what's the situation?
Niu Bu was a little confused about the situation in the Iltsk Oasis. When he rode his warhorse a little closer, he saw through the wooden guardrails that inside the Iltsk Oasis, there were several Xianyun soldiers holding scimitars in one hand and escorting several handcuffed, weak-footed, ragged slaves towards a certain area in the other hand.

"There was a coup d'état among the Xianyun?"

There are large and small raised tents in the Iltsk Oasis. Niu Bu couldn't see them clearly through the wooden fence.
