104. I bet you

The room was very simple, so it could only shelter the wind, and it was not big. Mo Ran really couldn't figure out why it was only one room.

"Even if we don't have a rest, it's too shabby for us to squeeze into a room, right?" Mo Ran couldn't help but say. There were so many of them, and they felt crowded when they stood on the ground.

But he swept the dust on the chair with his sleeves and said, "What I want to say is related to the night here. People here know that they can't spend the night here alone, and the more people, the better. So there are no one on the way here just now. The people downstairs are all in groups, most of whom spend the night in the tavern."

Mo Ran asked immediately: "What's special about the night here?"

Could it be: "Someone will be missing."

"Missing?" Tang Tian raised her eyebrows, "Has someone from the Immortal Bird Mercenary Group also disappeared here?"

Obviously everyone thought of this level and looked at it at this time.

Mo Fei nodded and said, "Yes, the other four mercenaries who came with me last time disappeared, and I was the only one who was fine. I stayed here for a long time and there were no clues. I just found out many taboos from the local area. It is said that there are treasures in the desert, and there are always curses here. Anyone with greed will be taken away by the curse."

Mo Ran suddenly became interested, "Man dies for money and birds die for food. This is an eternal truth. In such a barbaric land, there are so many people who are willing to take risks. If it weren't for treasure, who would have come here? If it were to say that there was danger only if there was greed in the heart, it would be even more impossible. It was probably accidental to disappear here..."

Jiang Chao also said: "There will not be such a high-level curse here."

The display of curse requires a medium. Local legends only exaggerate the danger here. It must not be a curse of the world of cultivation, otherwise Jiang Chao would have discovered it long ago.

However, one thing is certain that people will disappear here, but it is not the energy they are familiar with. Otherwise, wouldn't have said that this place is weird?

Mo Ran suddenly understood why he was so serious when he was in the desert. She said, "Will something happen tonight?"

Mo Fei shook his head, "I don't know, there is no rule at all. People are missing here every day, but when I came last time, four mercenaries disappeared one after another for four consecutive days. Maybe... Is there anything invisible to fight against us? If we hadn't come to the door, this mysterious power wouldn't be so active."

Mo Ran said: "According to what you said, we are taking the initiative to come to the door again this time, and danger will come to us."

Mo Fei nodded seriously and said, "So it's best for everyone not to separate tonight. We don't know what's going on, so don't be careless."

After hearing this, everyone found a corner to stay. Mo Ran looked around and couldn't help but find it funny. In such a simple room, these monsters were placed here with unique flavor. It was a bit strange that everyone had to stare at such a big eyes all night.

"You guys stay upstairs, I'll go down and take a look." Mo Ran couldn't sit still and stood up and said.

"I'll go too." Liu Yang said immediately, and the others immediately moved their feet, as if they were about to go down.

Zhang Ke said: "Captain, we can't be separated tonight. Don't forget that you can't act alone."

Mo Ran paused. Although he felt that it was not necessary to be so close downstairs, as the captain, she did not seem to be too casual. After a little thought, Mo Ran said: "We have so many people, staying together may not be the best strategy. If there is an accident, it is easier to be confused. It is better to divide into several groups. The people in the group stare at each other and must not be separated, which is more efficient."

"It's so good. I'll be in the same group as the captain." Jiang Chao said immediately.

Liu Yang also said: "I'll be the same as the captain! I will never lose the captain."

Mo Ran held his forehead and said quickly before the others spoke: "I have my own arrangements. You just need to listen to me. Su Wenzhe and Qin Ge, could it be the same as Tang Tian, ​​Jiang Chao, and the remaining Su Yuye, Zhang Ke, Liu Yang, and Bai Qiye."

As soon as Mo Ran finished speaking, many dissatisfied eyes suddenly came over. Only Qin Ge stretched and said, "Since the captain has arranged everything, let's take a break."

He didn't dislike the bed full of sand. He went up and took the lead in occupying the only place where he could lie, while Su Wenzhe stood by the bed.

Tang Tian gave Mo Ran a satisfied look, probably the arrangement finally came to her wish.

"Xiao Ran, why are Jiang Chao in the same group with you? The four of us don't need to stare at each other. What's the good thing about them? It just happened to be lost. I just want to see you." Liu Yang said.

Mo Ran twitched the corner of his mouth, and this guy told the truth! "You four have a contract with me, and it doesn't matter whether they are divided into a group. If you really don't want to, I'll summon you into the contract space and you will come out tomorrow morning."

Liu Yang choked and was speechless. The others agreed to Mo Ran’s arrangement.

Mo Ran secretly glanced at his brother, but he was very calm...

"Let's go down and take a look." Mo Ran pulled up the river tide and went out the door.

When the two went downstairs, there was a moment of silence downstairs. Everyone looked up at them and looked at them with bad looks, but soon they retracted their gaze and each drank and made a noise.

Mo Ran didn't take it seriously. Most of the people who appeared in such places were outlaws, with a hostility on their bodies. If they were in their previous life, Mo Ran might have been very careful, but at this moment, everyone here was transparent in Mo Ran's eyes and there was no threat at all.

This situation is somewhat familiar, almost overlapping with what she has experienced, but her mood is completely different, and she can't help but feel a little emotional.

At this time, Jiang Chao pulled Mo Ran toward a corner, next to the stairs, and against the wall behind him.

The conversations of the crowd were mixed. The two ordered a jar of wine and sat there and started drinking slowly.

Mo Ran stared at Jiang Chao's fair hand, holding a coarse pottery bowl. In contrast, the hand was so exquisite. She couldn't help but smile, pulled down his sleeves, covered the hand, and said, "If you see it, you must think you are a big fat sheep who is pampered and has a good life."

Jiang Chao raised his eyebrows, "What are you afraid of?"

This guy always does whatever he wants. If someone dares to come to him, he will never stingy in the action. In comparison, Mo Ran is much lower-key than him.

Mo Ran said: "We are here to find something, not to fight."

"Haha..." Jiang Chao smiled and asked instead: "How does it taste?"

Mo Ran then drank another cup, and his delicate facial features wrinkled together and said, "It's spicy and rough, hard to swallow."

"Haha." Jiang Chao laughed again, but he slowly drank without blinking, as if it was no different from the wine he usually drank.

Mo Ran looked at him and drank another bowl of wine. She was very heroic. She relieved the bitterness in her throat and said, "The taste of this wine is the same. You can drink it if you can drink it. Since your practice, your mood has been as weak as ever. I am not a person who can easily change his nature. Whether it is spiritual wine or grains, it is all delicious. It is not that I have been spoiled, but that I have not been touched for a long time and I am not used to it. I don't believe in the same wine. You will taste sweet when you drink it, you are just showing off."

Jiang Chao said, "I only ask you how you drink here, why do you have so many speculations?"

Mo Ran said: "I don't believe you just ask casually. If I deal with it casually, you will say why I am stupid again."

Jiang Chao curled his lips and smiled, "If you can think of anything, what fun will I have? This wine is so expensive. Do you have money?"

Mo Ran choked. She had already collected information from this plane with her spiritual sense today, and only then did she realize that they did not have the gold and silver here... "This is not difficult for me at all! You can wait."

After saying that, Mo Ran drank another bowl of wine, covered his face and walked towards the most lively long table under the torch. There were actually two large tables pieced together. At this time, many people were shouting there and they were turned into temporary casinos.

Mo Ran squeezed into the crowd. As soon as the game was over, a big man slapped the table and cursed, as if he had lost a lot of money. However, the tall and thin man opposite was very proud, drinking big gulps and asking arrogantly: "Who else dares to gamble with me?"

He seemed to have two tricks, and everyone shouted loudly, but no one dared to bet with him. Mo Ran was about to step forward, but he saw the big man who had just lost the game coming again! He slapped the table, "Grandpa has another bet with you!"

He was angry, obviously unwilling to accept it.

"Yohe! What are you betting on? You can't even catch a lice on your body. Do you want to bet on your knife? Hahaha!" the tall and thin man laughed.

The big man held his big knife tightly, "This knife is my life, you think it's beautiful! Grandpa has something else! I can see clearly, and grandpa will use this to bet on you!"

As he said that, he took out a yellowed and wrinkled parchment roll from his arms and slapped it on the table!

"What?" asked the tall and thin man. Although he was asking, his eyes were staring at the parchment scroll and became sharp in an instant!

And the big man said, "Let your dog's eyes open and see clearly! This is a treasure map!"

"Treasure Map?!"

The surroundings suddenly became noisy, and the entire first floor was attracted by these three words, including Mo Ran!

"Do you bet?" the big man asked.

And the tall and thin man showed his sure eyes, "Betting!"

As they said that, the two of them bet on their own, one side was full of gold and silver, while the other side was just a roll of parchment paper.

Mo Ran looked at the parchment scroll. It was still in the middle of the gambling table and had been opened. There was a map drawn on it. Mo Ran saw it very clearly and his heart suddenly jumped! The map was actually a bit similar to the map in her hand!

The map was drawn in detail, but it was just a broken scroll! The parchment was torn out in a very irregular manner, and it looked like a corner of a complete map after it was torn apart!

But it does match the map in her hand!

Mo Ran wanted to continue watching, but he heard a curse, and the parchment scroll was already rudely put into the arms of the tall and thin man, "Haha, this thing is my thing!"

It turned out that the big man lost in that game just now.

"Get out of the way! I won't bet anymore!" The tall and thin man took the money and took the map, and pushed the crowd away and wanted to leave.

But Mo Ran suddenly stepped forward and shouted loudly: "Let's wait! I'll bet with you!"
