The yellow sand rolls all over the place, like a salon chasing waves in the sea of sand, the dragon's head rushes into the air with the wind, the thick dragon body twists, the dragon's tail swings, and the whole sand dune disappears without a trace. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info Li Benyuan nestled in the belly of the camel, covered his head tightly with a cloth, and cursed this damn tornado. The camel had long since closed the valves of its nostrils, and its long eyelashes were covered with yellow sand.

It felt like a long time had passed before the tornado disappeared into the distance, and the camel felt that the wind and sand had passed, shook his big head, opened his eyes, and the yellow sand slid down from his long eyelashes.

It was as if piles of small sand dunes had come to life, and more than two dozen camels had come out of the sand. Li Benyuan shouted loudly as the crowd sorted out the camel team and counted the goods. This time it was a bit of luck, and although I was almost buried in the sand, I managed to avoid the front of the tornado, which was damn enough to sweep an entire camel into the sky.

"Ning Zihan, are you dead" Li Benyuan didn't see Ning Zihan next to the camel behind him, so he suddenly became anxious and shouted loudly. A hand in the sand beside Li Benyuan suddenly came out of the sand, scratching in the air, Li Benyuan instinctively took a step back, his hand also pressed on the handle of the knife, and glanced at the thin fingers, Li Benyuan's hand on the knife released the handle, grabbed the hand, and with a force, lifted Ning Zihan's thin figure out of the sand.

"Ahem, ahem!" Ning Zihan coughed and bent over. Li Benyuan reached out and patted the sand off Ning Zihan's body, "What's the matter, you can't die, right?" Ning Zihan finished coughing, took out a small cowhide kettle from his arms, took a sip, and a strong aroma of wine spread. Li Benyuan snatched it and poured a big mouthful.

Ning Zihan looked at his emaciated body, he was really anti-card, and he followed Li Benyuan to stay in this northwest place for more than 20 years, and he never fell. After counting the goods, Li Benyuan beckoned everyone to start on the road, "Guys, we will go to Shiyang River one day, and then let's go to Shawo to rest for two days!" As soon as everyone heard that they were going to Shawo, their spirits suddenly rose. Let's go! , go to Shawo! The old scar shouted loudly at the camel, and began to sing in a voice like a broken gong. Little sister, don't be shy, my brother hurts you in my heart,......."

"Sooner or later, die on a woman's belly!" Ning Zihan muttered. Li Benyuan is not surprised, Ning Zihan and Lao Scar are not a day or two, Ning Zihan is good at wine, Old Scar is lustful, and the money given by Li Benyuan is basically spent on these two things. The three of them are all lifelong friendships, to be precise, Li Benyuan has saved the lives of the two, since Li Benyuan saved the two from the enemy's hands, the two have followed Li Benyuan with all their hearts. Li Benyuan took someone to avenge the two more than ten years ago, and since then, the two have regarded Li Benyuan's family as their home.

Neither of them is married, and they don't have families, they usually live in the front yard of Li Benyuan's house, Li Benyuan originally prepared a house for the two of them outside, but neither of them went, and they didn't live together in Li Benyuan's house. Ning Zihan is Li Benyuan's think tank, quite good-looking, helping Li Benyuan to give advice, and has been maneuvering between major forces for so many years. Old Scar is very familiar with the desert of Longyou Road, and is an indispensable guide every time he goes out, especially when he walks in the desert.

This is the last time to go to the desert, Li Benyuan has decided to retire, his body is okay, but he is tired of it, since the birth of his youngest son Li Ziqiu, Li Benyuan has stopped the business of fighting and killing, and in the past seven years, he has only received some business of transporting goods inside and outside the customs, relying on his previous prestige, it is also smooth. Ning Zihan and Lao Scar are both older than him, although they are barely supporting, Li Benyuan knows that the two of them are just not worried about walking long distances alone, so they have worked hard to accompany themselves.

The endless sea of sand has begun to appear black in the distance, and Li Benyuan, who is sitting on a tall camel, knows that it is the Gobi Desert, and seeing the Gobi Desert proves that he has left the desert. There was also a faint camel bell ringing in the distance, and it seemed that it would not be only his own camel team that would go to the sand nest today.

Out of the desert is the control area of the Hexi Army, and along the Shiyang River to the southwest for dozens of miles is the Mingwei and Wu'an of the Hexi Army, each with a garrison of 50 horsemen. Don't underestimate the cavalry of this hundred horsemen, this is a regular army, not a rabble of bandits, well-equipped regular cavalry, even three times as many robbers do not dare to face the regular army head-on. As long as you arrive at the sand nest of Shiyang River, it will be considered safe, and your business will be completed. The goods on the camels are valuable goods. Twenty purple lambskins alone are worth five thousand. Not to mention the red goods hidden in the goods, the sapphires worth more than 10,000 guan and the precious Dongzhu were all exchanged for iron tools and grain embargoed by the imperial court.

Li Benyuan did not walk in front of the team this time, but walked at the end, and was about to go out of the desert, this is Li Benyuan's habit, walking in the front when entering the desert, and walking in the back when leaving the desert. The cushion on Ning Zihan's camel is thicker than others', Ning Zihan has a sip of what little wine he has left, and he is about to arrive at the sand nest at night, as long as there is silver, there is good wine.

Feeling that the camel team stopped, Li Benyuan urged the camel to go to the front of the team, Ning Zihan also opened his cloudy eyes, he didn't know what was going on in front of him, and he also followed Li Benyuan towards the front of the team. Li Benyuan had already seen the old scar beckoning to him, and knew that something was going on, so he urged the camel to come quickly in front of the team.

In front of me, I saw the black Gobi stones, and on the flat sand between the Gobi and the caravan, a beautiful woman in a white gauze dress sat on the sand facing the caravan about a stone's throw away, holding a pipa in her hand. Her dark hair hung down to cover half of her face, and her light gauze was bright red and obscene. The old scar saw Li Benyuan coming over, and pouted at the woman, "What should I do?" At the same time, make a gesture to the people behind to keep everyone on guard.

The value of the goods this time was very high, so all the people in Li Benyuan's camel team were veterans, and soon the entire camel team was ready to defend. The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Li Benyuan was also very careful, he just wanted to step forward to ask, but Ning Zihan pulled him and shouted loudly: "Girl, are you here to find the old scar, if he was sorry for you before, you can just say it, you can't get around him."

As soon as she finished speaking, the crisp sound of the lute sounded, and the woman stood up, but still facing the caravan. Everyone didn't dare to be careless, the sound of the pipa suddenly became urgent, like the momentum of thousands of troops, the woman suddenly turned her face to the camel caravan, her long black hair was blown by the wind, and her face was covered by white veil, but although the eyes that leaked out were extremely beautiful, they were full of murderous aura.

Li Benyuan's face changed greatly, "Be on guard!" With a loud shout, he drew his long knife. After the woman stood up, Li Benyuan saw that the tips of the other party's shoes were bent high and embroidered with beautiful flower branches, Turkic! It seems that they are coming for their own goods. This business of mine is with the Turks. The other party chose to do it here, and it seems that the other party just wants to transport the goods here.

Suddenly changed, a spear suddenly stabbed out of the sand under the camel, blood splashed, the camel team was in chaos, Li Benyuan jumped up from the camel, and the long knife came out of the sheath and went straight to the woman in the gauze on the opposite side. The sound of the pipa became noisy, the corner of the woman's mouth sneered, looking at Li Benyuan's long knife with a reflection towards it, his body turned, and the head of the pipa slammed towards the head of the knife, and with a bang, Li Benyuan felt a strong force knocking his long knife open, and the other party's pipa turned out to be iron!

Li Benyuan's long knife flipped over, fought in all directions at night, and knocked the two hidden weapons shot out of the woman's pipa into the air. The camel team has been messed up, there are fifty or sixty people out of the sand, half of their own people have been lost, and the rest are also in danger, the old scar is gone, Li Benyuan is not worried about him, this old guy is still very good at saving his life. Ning Zihan was protected by several guys.

The woman on the opposite side had already rushed over, the light gauze robe was blown, leaking out the fleshy long white legs and delicate willow waist, and the straight breasts could no longer arouse any emotions from Li Benyuan, and the long knife in Li Benyuan's hand turned into a ball of knife light and greeted the mysterious woman. After a few crisp weapons handovers, the two separated, the woman's back gauze was torn, and half of the red obscene clothes fell off.

Li Benyuan stood quietly, the long knife was on the ground, his eyes were wide and staring at the woman, the woman smiled charmingly at Li Benyuan, Li Benyuan fell straight back, smashed a piece of sand, and two lines of blood in the throat slowly left down his neck.

"Hurry up, don't leave a single one!" The woman shouted loudly, and soon the guys in the camel team were all put down, and the group of bandits with their faces masked made up another shot on each of them, and Ning Zihan fell on the side of a camel's leg, and was shot in the abdomen, and the blood flowed for a while and quickly stopped. Seeing that the fight was over, the woman shouted and began to gather the caravan, and the masked robbers who had attacked also began to speak loudly, in Turkic dialect.

The woman was just about to pull a camel to ride up, and suddenly flashed to the side, a long knife stabbed out of the sand, saw that it was empty, the sand suddenly rose, and a figure rushed out of the sand, but it was too late, several spears next to it pierced out, and fixed the figure in the air, the old scar held a long knife in his hand, opened his eyes and stared at the woman in the gauze, full of unwillingness, the blood in his mouth kept gushing out, his head was tilted, and he died.

A group of robbers soon led the camel caravan out of the desert and disappeared into the Gobi Desert, the noon sun gave a dazzling light, and the air on the sand was steamed by the high temperature of the sun. Ning Zihan slowly opened his eyes, wriggling and struggling to stand up, unable to believe the facts in front of him.

The blood has long been dried, and the wind blows the fine sand and soon buries the dark red sand grains underneath, Ning Zihan has been sitting for more than half an hour, looking at the jade pendant that has cracked in his hand, he believes the words of the Qingfeng Dao Chief, who had smiled at Ning Zihan before: "Old pedant, we are also fated, I should save your life", and then gave himself a jade pendant, let himself wear it on his body, don't take it off. Although I don't believe it, I have a good intention to read the old way, so I have been wearing it on my body.

The matter has come to this, it is useless to think about it, Ning Zihan wiped away his tears, found a long knife left by the robbers, did not dig a pit, but covered the body with sand and buried it on the spot. There was no way, his thin body wanted to take the body away, but he couldn't do it, so he could only bury it on the spot. As for revenge, Ning Zihan didn't think about it, people like Li Benyuan who used to do businessless business had already thought of this kind of fate.

Right and wrong, there is a definite number, and the head of Qingfeng Dao once persuaded Ning Zihan to put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha on the ground! Let Ning Zihan learn from him, but thinking of Li Benyuan's life-saving grace, Ning Zihan wanted to retire with Li Benyuan and the old scar. I also wanted to ask the Qingfeng Dao Chief to tell Li Benyuan's fortune telling, but unfortunately the Qingfeng Dao Chang refused to say a word!

When Li Benyuan was finally buried, Ning Zihan put away a knife book on Li Benyuan's body, which was a knife book written by Li Benyuan himself, which was intended to be taught to his old son Li Ziqiu, but unfortunately he couldn't teach it himself. Ning Zihan finally buried everyone in the yellow sand, walked out of the desert step by step, stood on the Gobi Desert, and looked back, "Farewell, I will never come back in this life, farewell brother!" ”。

When you die, you know that everything is empty, grievances and hatreds are gone, greed, hatred, hatred and resentment are parting, and the Buddha always has a light in front of him.

Ning Zihan was enlightened, devoted himself to the Tao, returned to Liangzhou, and prepared to take Li Benyuan's family out of Liangzhou and back to Li Benyuan's hometown Youzhou, Hebei Province, and never come back in this life.
