Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Lonely Grassland
I don't know how long it took, a heavy rain, Yan Duan finally woke up in a daze, slowly got up from the teleportation platform, moved step by step to the outside of the teleportation array, and began to walk outside along the wild grass all over the mountain.
After walking for a long time, I finally got out of the gourd-like canyon, and then fell into the puddle.
A little girl of about twelve or thirteen years of age on horseback, shouting on horseback, drove the sheep to the side of the mountain. glanced at the gourd canyon that the grandmother often used to scare her from a distance, and saw a person lying outside the gourd mouth canyon. For the first time, the little girl was curious, and her grandmother said that there were monsters living in the mouth of the gourd, and sometimes they would come out to steal sheep to eat, so she asked her to leave quickly when she saw the mouth of the gourd.
"Why is that youkai lying on the ground still?" the little girl looked at Yan Duan lying on the ground from a distance.
After a while, the little girl looked firm, as if she had made some decision, and looked around, and there was no one but her sheep all over the hills, so she got off the horse, and walked slowly, little by little, towards the youkai lying on the ground.
Just as he got closer, the monster lying on the ground seemed to move, and the little girl was frightened and retreated. It was only when I saw that the monster didn't seem to move anymore that I got closer to see it again.
"It turns out that the youkai are the same as us, they all have a nose, two eyes, and a mouth," the little girl muttered to herself, and then stabbed the youkai on the ground with the whip in her hand, and saw that he did not move, so she slowly approached again.
The little girl stared at the monster on the ground for a long time, "It seems to be a human", so she pulled Yanduan, as if she was trying her best to pull up Yanduan, but after trying a few times, the little girl still couldn't pull Yanduan, so she looked at the monster on the ground with some sadness.
Then I heard the cry of the sheep, and saw a group of men dressed in sectarian clothes riding over, and the first was a woman, with her hair up, tied with a hairpin, and wearing a wide robe, which was embroidered of four different colors, and her face was full of beauty, and she was followed by five or six men in the same costume, but there were men and women, and the man's hair was scattered over his body.
When the little girl saw the group of sectarians, the group also saw her, and they also saw Yan Duan lying on the ground, so they came quickly, turned over and dismounted beside the little girl.
"Little sister, what's wrong with him?" the leading woman walked over, looked at Yan Duan on the ground, and then asked the little girl.
The little girl shook her head, indicating that she didn't know, and then said, "I don't know what happened to the youkai." ”
"What, youkai?" a man behind him took a step forward and asked in surprise, also looking at Yan Duan on the ground, and then raised his head and whispered to the little girl, "What kind of monster is he, don't lie to us casually." ”
The girl shrunk her neck in fear, and the leading woman turned her head to the man who had just spoken, and said, "Don't scare her." The man shrugged, then stopped talking.
"Okay, it's all right" The woman stepped forward and stroked the little girl, and asked with a smile, "What's your name, little sister?"
The little girl looked up and looked at the gentle sister in front of her, "My name is Qingqing"
"Your name is Qingqing, then you tell my sister, who is this person, why do you call him a monster?" the girl said softly.
Qingqing looked at the eldest sister, as if she had a little courage, "I don't know him, I was herding sheep and preparing to go home, and I saw him lying here in the gourd, my grandmother said that the gourd mouth is full of monsters, and he must be a monster that sneaked out of the gourd's mouth" The little girl said more and more surely.
There was a burst of laughter from behind, and the woman also turned her head slightly, smiled embarrassedly, and then turned around, looked at the little girl and said, "Okay, since Qingqing said that he is a monster, then he is a monster, and the monster is left to my sister to take care of, so you can hurry up and drive the sheep back, you see, it's almost dark." ”
The little girl nodded and glanced up at the big sister, as if there was nothing wrong with handing it over to the gentle big sister in front of her. So he took his little leather whip and hurried to the horse, and then drove the sheep to the other side of the mountain.
The leading woman said in a commanding tone to the man who had just spoken behind her, "Zhang Yang, you take him to your horse." ”
"Yes," Zhang Yang said with his sword in his hand.
Then Zhang Yang, with the help of another senior brother, carried Yan Duan lying on the ground to the horse, and then the big guy got on the horse and left.
In a small courtyard, Yan Duan, who had been sleeping for three days, finally woke up leisurely, and there were bursts of severe pain on his body. After struggling for a while, he finally got up and looked at the room he was in, simple and simple, but in addition to some necessary furniture in the house, there were some calligraphy and paintings and a pot of bonsai in the house.
Looking around, there was no one, "It seems that I was saved by some kind person." Yan Duan muttered, then took out the porcelain bottle from the space ring, poured out a Runmai Pill from the porcelain bottle, and then put it back into the space ring. I gave three to the Sea Clan princess to treat meridian injuries before, and I used one after the volcanic eruption, and now I am taking one, and there are only two left in the porcelain bottle.
After taking the Runmai Pill, Yan Duan took out one of the spiritual hearts from the space ring and began to heal while cultivating. As he encountered more and more things, he found that the spiritual heart actually contained various effects, which made him feel more and more that the spiritual heart might have a great origin.
After two hours of healing, the meridians of Yanduan finally did not burn as when they first woke up, but had a cool feeling, and the white meridians were more condensed than before.
Just as he was about to get out of bed, there was a "squeak", the door was opened, and a man dressed as a servant walked in, holding a tray with a wet towel in it. After seeing that Yan Duan woke up, he hurriedly stepped forward with joy, "Childe, you are awake." ”
"Where is this, who are you?" asked Yanduan, a little confused.
"Childe, this is Zhang's Mansion, I'm a subordinate of Zhang's Mansion, I'll go to find the master" The servant said, and then exited the door, "Kick~Kick~~" The footsteps of departure sounded outside the window.
A short time later, a middle-aged man with a beard and slightly gray hair, dressed in rich clothes, walked in, followed by two servants.
"You're finally awake, it's good to wake up," the middle-aged man said as he looked at Yan Duan, who was sitting on the edge of the bed.
Yan Duan had recovered a little at this time, so he stood up from the side of the bed and said to the middle-aged man, "Thank you, old man, for saving your life." "As he spoke, he bowed down.
The middle-aged man hurriedly stepped forward to help Yanduan and stopped him from continuing to worship, "It's not me who saved you, it's the dog and his senior brothers and sisters." ”
"Oh?" asked Yan Duan with some confusion, and as soon as the man in front of him said it, he knew that some sect members had saved him.
"Then I also want to thank you for your kindness, uncle, I don't know where Ling Gongzi is now, I should thank you in person. Yan Duan said solemnly to the middle-aged man.
"The dog and his senior siblings went to the Blood Origin Secret Realm, he said that the Blood Origin Secret Realm will be opened in half a month, and they are going to meet with the master, saying that they saved you in the middle of the way, and when they saw you, you were already injured and unconscious at the mouth of a canyon. The middle-aged man said.
"I see, so thank you uncle, but there is still a question below, please uncle, inform. Yan stopped the old man's words, nodded, and then said.
"You ask, the old man knows everything, and he says everything," the middle-aged man said.
"Excuse me, uncle, where is this?" asked Yan Duan sincerely.
The middle-aged man looked at Yan Duan and was a little puzzled, but still replied, "This is Wudu City"
Yan Duan was even more puzzled when he heard this, "Please also ask the old man to make it clear, where does Wudu City belong?"
"Wudu City belongs to Dajin Kingdom, oh, you should be asking where Dajin Country is, this is the Lonely Grassland" The middle-aged man looked at Yan Duan and heard Dajin Kingdom, the confusion in his eyes changed his words instantly.
"Desolate grassland, northern frontier?" asked Yan Duan in surprise.
"Yes, this is Northern Xinjiang" The doubts in the eyes of the middle-aged man deepened, and the young man in front of him seemed to have come to Northern Xinjiang for the first time.
"This is the northern frontier hundreds of thousands of miles away from the inland sea," Yan Duan felt a burst of shock in his heart.
