When night fell, the soldiers made a large space in the camp, lit torches, lit bonfires, danced hand in hand, and sang songs.

This is the fashion of the grassland, and the herdsmen in the vicinity have been prepared and have joined in, and some even rode horses from far away, with his lover and sister, and hurried over early with interest, and the men and women gathered around the fire, snuggling and dancing, dancing and singing.

There were also people who beat the single-skin drums, and it seemed that some people played the horse-head fiddle, and the strings of the dongbula also sounded melodiously, and the wine bags flew around in the air, and the wine was spilled. Those soldiers and steppe men with big beards and big faces, thick eyebrows and wide mouths, picked up the wine bag, poured a few mouthfuls into their mouths, and threw them into the air, and the people below made a fuss and shouted to catch them, turned their backs to the sky, and poured them into their mouths.

Amidst the singing, drumming, piano and noise, Zhao Zihan and the two girls enjoyed a rare tranquility, thinking of the beacon fire and wolf smoke everywhere in their distant hometown, where the people must be fighting bloodily, constantly bleeding and dying, and their hearts couldn't help but rise with distant thoughts.

"I'm going to sing. Zhao Zihan said.

Yan Mei'er and Yao Yao were silent, silently offering the huqin and the guzheng, pulling and playing, playing and playing, in a trance, Zhao Zihan, who was already slightly drunk, raised his neck, poured a few sips of wine violently, opened his throat, and a vigorous and slightly hoarse singing voice sounded in the noise, penetrating the night:

...... Shake hands and sigh, tears are goodbye.

Try to love Chunhua, don't forget the joyful time.

Life should come back, death should be Sauvignon Blanc......

In the intoxicating singing, Wu Buhua and Bai Tier silently held hands, grinned and walked into the crowd of dancers, dancing with dreamy youth.

Zhao Zihan was a little fascinated, he knew that from now on, their elf-like shadows would be engraved in his heart for a long time like the childhood spent in the Mobei Grassland.

Three days later, there was a vast Gobi in front of me, wisps of colorful mist emerged from the Gobi, and it was extremely mysterious under the refraction of the sun, as if there was a blazing magma rushing under the ground, and the edge of the Gobi was full of white bones, shocking.

Lilguna dismounted, ordered the army to camp in place, and waited there.

A few men stopped here to check the equipment, water, and food, and soon the princess gave her order to the officer leading the group: "If we do not return in a month's time, half of the men and horses will be withdrawn, and so on, and if there is still no news of us after three months, and everyone will retreat, please report to my father and mother, and hold a great burial for me." ”

"But, if we can get through the mysterious rift ahead," Lilguna said with a slight smile on her face, as if she was not talking about the aftermath, but about to embark on a very ordinary trip.

At this time, the atmosphere was a little depressing, the cronies and generals around the princess were crying and mourning, if the princess didn't come back, they naturally wouldn't leave, this moat has only been passed by that legendary magical character for thousands of years, and they believe that their princess will come back soon. If they really make it through, it will not be a good thing, the hope of survival will be extremely slim, and what awaits them may end up being deep grief.

Several monks are also close to each other, although this person is a prince, but in his own eyes, he is just the talented and hard-working little brother, he is not only the prince of the Arhan Kingdom, but also the hope of the future of Fangcun Temple. He also tried hard to persuade him, but he knew that he was righteous, and if he was so long, he would almost be full of old fists......

These people know in their hearts, Gong

His Royal Highness and the prince are not looking to see the scenery, they have the lives of thousands of people and the entire Great Eastern Plains in their hearts.

Five people and five riders, resolutely walked into the vast Gobi, the colorful mist is even thicker, the visibility is only about ten meters away, such a place, I don't know if I will encounter some strange creatures?

Zhao Zihan asked this question to the princess, and the princess said: "It is rumored that this is a forbidden area of life, didn't you see those white bones just now? The corpses of those animals are a prohibition, indicating that this place must not be entered." ”

After walking about a kilometer away, the army of the elves has disappeared from sight, the weather in the Gobi has changed again, the sun is not visible in the sky at all, but there is a thousand ways of sunshine in the fog, reflecting a kaleidoscope of world: there are peach blossoms red, bananas green, peonies are grateful, peonies are afraid, and begonias are frightened.

...... In the fog, there are ethereal songs and dances in the sky, and there is a faint melodious sound of dingdong, lingering resentment, such as crying and complaining, like a sad woman who is in love and sighing for the lyre......

After a while, the high-rise buildings that seemed to have scales and scales loomed in his eyes, like a mirage, lost in an instant, and unpredictable; sometimes he saw a chivalrous man full of pride, a giant ape with a fierce face, a god and demon with a solemn face, and a big man with a beard, all of whom fell into the bottomless abyss with a look of despair.

Zhao Zihan was so frightened that his buttocks tightened, but he was worried that the two girls who were close at hand, Mei'er and Yao Yao, could see the clues, and they had to suffocate their faces into purple pork liver.

Trembling and trembling for about half an hour, the white fog suddenly dissipated, the scene changed again, the blue sky was clear and beautiful, the yellow sand was already thousands of miles in front of me, there was no edge in sight, and the hot and dry air carried a rolling heat wave, as if it was a hot summer.

Seeing that the horses had begun to foam at the mouth, Lilguna immediately beckoned everyone to dismount, took out a water bag to feed the horses, and said, "Don't ride the horse, go slowly." ”

Zhao Zihan looked at the yellow sand in the sky and secretly complained, but Yan Meier and Yao Yao threw their horses, ran wildly on the yellow sand, and screamed in their mouths, looking at the two girls like flying butterflies, Zhao Zihan suddenly realized that this place was extremely beautiful.

As far as the eye can see, there are rolling sand dunes piled up with the same color of yellow sand, the breeze is light, and the surface of the yellow sand ripples layer by layer, as if the soft hand is caressing the lover's face; the fine yellow sand is as clean as the lover's affection, not mixed with a little impurity, even the pebbles the size of an egg can not see one; here is the world of sand, the sea of sand, there is no withered grass, no trees, no abrupt color.

Just like the magic of nature, the empty waves, the turbulent waves and the calm sea water are frozen in an instant, forming such a pair of high and low, beautiful streamline, indelible silhouette, eternally presented in front of heaven and earth.

The two girls were dancing in the yellow sand, bursts of heat wave + were coming, sweating profusely in an instant, and the harshness hidden under the beautiful surface of the vast desert was gradually exposed. Aledu exhorted him to conserve his strength, for the desert is mysterious, it is not fixed, it is moving, it is changing, sometimes it is small, sometimes it is so big that you can never go to the edge.

The faces of the two girls suddenly showed horror, and Mei'er even immediately sacrificed the "Imperial Qi Technique", but was immediately stopped by Lilguna: "This vast yellow sand, I don't know when it will end, don't you have an end to your mental power?"

Mei'er was helpless and pursed her lips in frustration.

Since they can't use telekinesis and true power, everyone can only do it

Walking like ordinary people, the cheerful laughter of the two girls has long since disappeared, only the gasp of "squeeze" remains, and gradually, accustomed to the sonorous steps on the flat surface, the feet have become difficult in this soft yellow sand, and every step is extremely difficult.

The sun was scorching, the sun was smoking, the clothes on the body were heavy, and the legs were so heavy that they were filled with lead. It seemed that even the oxygen had thinned out, and a dull pain began to ache in the chest. After climbing a sand dune, more sand dunes appear in front of you, and the end is always far away.

Zhao Zihan became more and more irritable as he walked, and recalled in his mind what Alerdu had just said: It is not fixed, it is moving, changing, sometimes it is small, sometimes it is so big that you can never go to the edge.

How could this be? He couldn't help but fall into deep thought...... Suddenly realizing something in his heart, he suddenly turned to Aldu and asked, "Isn't this a fixed sea of sand?"

Aledu wiped the sweat from his face and replied quietly: "Of course not, it is rumored that this piece of yellow sand, the size of the heart, some people have speculated that it may be just a mirror image, the so-called illusion is born from the heart, perhaps, it is just an illusion in our hearts." ”

Zhao Zihan was taken aback and said, "The illusion in my heart? Do you know what is the biggest in the world, among all categories?"

Yan Mei'er felt very strange, winked at him, and said in her heart: But I have never heard him ask such philosophical questions, this person is getting deeper and deeper.

Yao Yao replied: "Of course, the universe is the largest, and it is said that the universe is boundless, and the universe is boundless." Aledu and Lilguna knew that this kid must be selling off, so they simply laughed and said nothing.

Zhao Zihan was very satisfied, and asked himself: "The vast universe, the desolation of heaven and earth, the biggest thing is the human mind, or the human heart.

Do you think, what people think, think, know, see, all are in their minds, that is, the whole universe, no matter how big it is, as long as people can imagine, see, and perceive, it will be installed, do you say that the universe is boundless, or is the mind boundless?"

Everyone was dumbfounded, Zhao Zihan couldn't help but feel a little proud, and continued: "As for the human heart, it can not only hold infinite ** and ambition, but also the whole world, but sometimes it can't fit the slightest mustard, or half a good word, don't mention it." ”

"This sea of sand, since it is an illusion in the bottom of our hearts, then the shortest and farthest distance in the world is in our hearts and minds. It's far away, it's not at all the edges, and if it's closer, it's... It's just a stone's throw away. That being the case, what are we doing on such a long journey, why don't we find a place to rest after enjoying the desert scenery to the fullest!"

As soon as he said this, Yao Yao and Yan Mei'er were nothing, but Aledu and Lierguna were shocked and said, "What did you say?"

Zhao Zihan looked at the two of them, silent, and smiled lightly.

Ligurguna also looked at Zhao Zihan, as if looking at a monster, for a long time, she muttered to herself: "No wonder, most of the ancestors of my elven country died of exhaustion in this sea of sand, and they couldn't reach the edge of the rift at all, so that's the case!"

Aledu was stunned and pronounced a Buddha call: "Amitabha! My Buddha is merciful, and the poor monk understands." ”

"Okay, let's keep walking forward, find a suitable place, let's set up camp and enjoy the sunny weekend, there is no need to be so tired. Lilguna said as if she had come to her senses.
