Chapter Eighty-Seven: Fists Shattered in Hot Sand
Chapter Eighty-Seven: Both fists are shattered in hot sand
Chen Cheng flew more than three miles in the sky before putting away the glider and landing on the ground. He has cars and motorcycles in his "inventory", which is perfect for galloping in the desert. In addition, there is a strong red horse, which is a descendant of "Gollum", who is as tall as his ancestors, and is also a good means of transportation.
But he didn't take these things out, but made a robe to cover his head and face, and then continued his hike in the desert. It's not that those things are bad, it's just that he wants to experience something different. Don't use those ordinary abilities when you don't have to.
It is said that in a certain world, someone knelt down to the Potala Palace by prostrating his head step by step, so as to obtain the purity of the soul and the supreme mana. There are also people who use the way of re-taking the "Long March" road, which is to become stronger himself. Chen Cheng felt that although his strength had not fully recovered, he had essentially fallen into a bottleneck.
It may be helpful to learn from those people's methods.
The Prison Gate Fort is located in Yan'an, on the Iwo River, and continues a few hundred miles north to reach the end of the river. When Chen Cheng was about to walk to the end of the Sulfur River, it had already been discovered in the prison gate fort that two nobles from Yang Halberd City were missing, and some people had found that the despicable stranger had not gone out for two days.
The situation was soon reported to the Earl of Fort Prison, and Harman Uller did not want to care about such. As a descendant of the Dragonslayer family, Haman, like his ancestors before him, was vaguely hostile and distrustful of the prince of the Martell family. Back then, the three Aegon sisters and their dragons burned down an unknown number of Dorn's cities and killed many Dorn's people, but now the Prince of Dorne has the blood of the Targaryen family in his veins, which makes the people of the Urle family more or less guilty.
However, when Dorne's princess Elijah and her two children were killed by Tywin Lannister's Magic Mountain, Gregor Cregan, the Uller family was furious. Princess Elijah, although she also has the blood of the Targaryen family, is the pearl of Dorn's heart.
When the news of the princess's murder reached Dorne, the crowd was excited, and if it weren't for Prince Dolang's suppression of the anger of the nobles and the common people, he would have declared war on the Lannisters by that time. At that time, Robert Baratheon and Ned Stark joined forces, together with the Vale Alliance, and had completely defeated the Targaryen side, and the Dornians could not bow their heads.
If the Dornish had not been obedient to the Iron Throne at that time, they would have used the forces of Dorne to challenge the entire continent of Westeros. Doran Malte, who was stoic and endured the anger of his sister's murder, has been plotting to restore the Targaryen dynasty.
Before Robert Baratheon was hit by a wild boar when he was out hunting, Ned Stark was also beheaded by Joffrey, the "Emperor of the Ages", Prince Doran originally wanted to support Lanli Baratheon, but the "little devil" Tyrion sent Princess Myrcella to Halberd City, and married Myrcella Baratheon to Prince Doran's son Tristan.
In this way, there are two choices before Doran Maltai, one is to restore the rule of House Targaryen, and the other is to make Mysela Baratheon "Lord of the Seven Kingdoms on the Iron Throne". Harman Uller sees all this in his heart, he has no affection for the Targaryens, but he hates the Lannisters even more.
Namelia had already told him about the stranger Chen, and now that someone had stabbed him about it, he could only follow the meaning of everyone and order the nobles who had long been dissatisfied with Chen Cheng to send troops to chase him. Travelers on the road had already reported a tall man on foot in the desert, so the men and horses of the Fort of Prison pursued them north along the Iwo River.
Seeing the hundreds of cavalry disappear into the desert in the north, Namelia turned her head and said to her father, "They may not be able to catch up with Chen, and even if they do, it is likely to be a tragedy." ”
Haman Uller said calmly: "It doesn't matter if all these people die. "The people of the Uller family like to barbecue the living, and the death of a few people is not a matter of concern to them at all.
He glared at Nymeria, "That stranger, can really fly?" ”
Nemelia was sure she could see it that day, but she wasn't sure for it anymore, she hesitated for a moment and said, "It's true." ”
"Hmph, after a few hundred years, are those wizards coming back again?" "When the last dragon died in King's Landing, the magic faded away. Now that Daenerys of House Targaryen has three dragons, magic is back in the world! ”
Namelia: "Father, what are you going to say?" ”
Haman Uller looked out in the direction of "Where the Dragon's Fall", "We need to stock up on more food and train more soldiers!" Also, there are a few more giant crossbows that can shoot dragons! ”
The days in the desert are blazing hot, and the nights are icy. Chen Cheng had originally decided to try not to use the plug-in, to see if he could learn from others and gain stronger strength from the arduous trek. But after only a day and a night, he gave up on it.
It's not that he can't stand the pain of the wind and the sun, but it's unnecessary. There are many paths to higher places, and it is not necessary to use ascetic methods. By punishing one's own flesh in order to obtain spiritual satisfaction and pleasure, in Chen Cheng's view, this is tantamount to an evil way.
However, he did not take out his mount or vehicle, and continued to walk on the ground. It's slower, but you can see more of the scenery along the way. The scenery in the desert is not only hot yellow sand, but also has many changes and different things.
When the wind blows, the sand will fly all over the sky, and sometimes the white bones under the yellow sand will be exposed. It was a victim I don't know how many years ago. Their flesh had long since turned to dust, but their bones remained. After countless hours, it reappeared on the earth for future generations to see.
On both sides of the Iwo River, there are also quite a few things worth seeing. Along the way, Chen Cheng encountered a particularly pleasing place, so he used a high-definition camera to shoot it. But generally it is not long, and half an hour of continuous shooting is considered a lot. The desert landscape is beautiful, but it is also brutal, with swords, armor, and cameras all severely damaged in the wind and sand.
After five days of walking, he finally came to the end of the Brimstone River. In the northernmost part of the place, there is a huge lake. It is rare to see fish and shrimp in the lake because the salt content in the lake water is too high for fish and shrimp to survive. Around the lake, there are many low, salinity-tolerant plants.
Some animals live on the plants around them, while others live on the former. On the sand around the lake, you can see the footprints of many animals. Chen Cheng sat on the top of the sand dunes, watched the lake for a while, and then ate some food. To the south, more than a hundred horsemen on horses and camels chased after them.
"Look there, my lord!"
One soldier stretched out his hand to the top of the dunes and shouted, "That stranger has stopped!" ”
"He's out of energy!" The officer, dressed as a nobleman, laughed, "How stupid is this despicable stranger to dare to flee in the desert of Dorne without preparing horses and camels!" Even if we don't catch up, he'll die in this desert like his kind! ”
Chen Cheng also saw the enemy in the dust, and yesterday, he had already discovered that the enemy had appeared a hundred miles to the south. That's why he waited at the top of the dunes, and he looked around, the lake was pale blue and pure, the yellow sand stretched as far as the eye could see, and the birds flew among the reeds, alarming the wolves who were drinking.
"The scenery here is so good, you should be satisfied as a burial place.......... That's weird! ”
Chen Cheng knew that as long as he was a normal person, under normal circumstances, he didn't want to die. For those who don't want to die, no matter how beautiful the surrounding scenery is, those who don't want to die still don't want to die.
He looked at the enemy who was rushing towards him excitedly, as if he was talking to himself, as if he was talking to the enemy, "Come on, I'll fight you with these fists to see if these iron fists will shatter in hot sand!" ”
The pursuers were all excited when they saw that the strangers they were going to capture, or kill directly, stopped on the top of the dunes. They are worthy of the warriors who grew up in Dorne, marching in the desert for days without any fatigue. Even though they were covered in yellow sand, the outstretched hands of these Dorne warriors were still vigorous.
Chen Cheng thought, they are still human beings, and they can maintain such mental and physical strength, probably because they have always been popular along the river? Perhaps, I should lead them into the desert. See if these children of the desert will lose their strength from thirst and hunger.
Next time, next time I have such an opportunity, I will take these people to the depths of the desert.
The Dornish drew closer, their shouts and intimidating voices, along with the neighing of their horses, heard far away from the wind. Chen Cheng stood up from the sand dune, his eyes becoming a little excited. Ever since he knew that this world was A Song of Ice and Fire, he had a lot of places he wanted to visit, King's Landing, Old Town, the Great Wall, and so on.
There are also a lot of people who want to fight against them....... and creatures, giants, strangers, red-robed wizards....... And dragons. He imagined fighting dragons for a moment, and thought he should still be able to take down the fabled creatures. But dragons can fly, and he can't keep flying in the air.
Therefore, it is still difficult to bombard a dragon head-on. As long as it can't be killed with a single blow, the dragon will flutter its wings and fly out of his reach. But it's too early to say this, the Storm Queen on the other side of the Narrow Sea is still very young, and her dragon is too small to shoot herself. Only when the dragons have grown up will he try to complete the act of slaying the dragons.
Immediately, Chen Cheng thought of another question, "Does the dragon really fly on its wings?" According to aerodynamics, no matter how powerful those wings are, it is impossible to drive such a huge body to fly at high altitude. ”
