Why should Qiang Di complain about the willows, the spring breeze does not pass the jade gate.

A young girl, standing in the middle of the desert.

The woman was wearing a typical Western costume, soft silk, bright purple, with unique patterns, just as delicate and beautiful as herself.

On his hands and legs, he wears a special white ice silk made by the Ice Silkworm of the Western Regions (I don't know what it is), which can withstand the blazing heat of the desert.

A hot wind blew, blowing a few strands of hair on the girl's forehead, revealing the same strange mark as on the dress.

However, what makes people more concerned is her breathtaking eyes.

It is like a clear spring, but with a touch of confusion and sadness.

She is very temperamental, and the gorgeous decorations on her head set off her to be unearthly, like a fairy above the nine heavens, clean and dustless.

Similarly, the girl's face can definitely be regarded as a sinking fish and a goose, and the moon is shy of flowers, just like a beauty who has come out of a painting, fresh and refined.

This beauty is not at all like everything in the world.

And the longbow that the girl was carrying behind was extraordinarily sharp, as if she was always alerting others that she was not a weak woman.

A little sad, the girl's hand, holding the Qiang flute, slowly, in front of the red lips, blowing slightly.

The melodious music seems to stretch like an endless sky, resounding leisurely in the yellow sand flying in the sky.

Such as crying, complaining, such as admiration, the sound of the Qiang flute seems to pour out the sadness and longing in the girl's heart.

In the vast desert, there is no trace of life to be found, just as at this moment, what she is facing is not the Thousand Cave City that was once full of vitality, but a ruined and broken ruin.

A ruin that has been buried in yellow sand.

The maiden's name is Garo, and she is the heir to this ruined ———— Thousand Caves City.

When the footsteps of the gods walked through the desert in the clouds, leaving behind a long jade road, here once resounded the camel bells of the merchants, galloped the ironclad cavalry, and ushered in the eager seekers of knowledge.

These seekers dug a thousand grottoes under the proud cliffs, and cherished the knowledge imparted by the gods and the texts that were painstakingly copied, and engraved them into the blood and marrow of generations, so people called this place the city of a thousand caves.

For thousands of years, the Thousand Caves City has become the most famous school city in the desert in the clouds. The quantity and quality of the classics collected here are probably only surpassed by Chang'an City and the legendary Jixia Academy.

The city is home to statues of the most famous scholars of all ages, whose names are revered along with the fruits of their wisdom.

The books containing the most difficult knowledge are stored in the Thousand Caves, and only the best scholars who have been selected are allowed to enter the school. The family that manages the Thousand Grottoes is respectfully known as the "Chiming Seven Surname Family", which means the most dazzling glow in the desert.

Garo and her fathers, her ancestors, are like the light of knowledge in the desert, the cave where books are stored for generations.

As for Galo, she is the daughter of the Thousand Caves City, and she is influenced by the scrolls, just like the people who live here and the Thousand Caves City, the book is not only a book, but also a faith.

However, such a large and powerful Thousand Cave City was reduced to ashes in a war.

Presumably, if you randomly pull out any of the predecessors and take a look at the current scene, I am afraid that you will not be able to believe your eyes.

And with the collapse of the Thousand Caves City, it was not only the lives of the people. In the same way, there are those classics and books that have been condensed for thousands of years with all the wisdom and painstaking efforts of our ancestors.

Everything was fleeting, making it difficult for Garo to accept.

The turning point came earlier than expected.

It was supposed to be a good day, when the successor of the Jade City and the prefect of the Great Wall Guards, Su Lie, reached an agreement on mutual markets, so the two sides removed their guards and let the border residents communicate with each other.

Jia Luo participated in this long-lost closed market and gained a lot. It's been a long time since she's been so happy to buy books from Chang'an, but she doesn't know that this is the last beauty of the desert in the clouds, and it is also the beginning of calamity.

By the time Garo arrived, the entire Thousand Caves City had been completely torn apart by the flames that had burned everything, the hordes of demon seeds, and the screams of despair.

The entire Thousand Caves City fell defenselessly, the pages were ignited by flames, flying all over the sky, turning into ashes, returning to nothingness, and the efforts of countless generations were destroyed in one fell swoop.

As Garo ran through the flames of war, he stepped on the heavy steps and wanted to get close to his father's figure.

However, his father chose to die together in the Thousand Caves City.

The old but firm back, as if it had accumulated the painstaking efforts of its ancestors for thousands of years, slowly and quietly walked into the collapsed grotto.

Books are a fleeting thing. However, civilization can last forever.

These were the last words my father said to Garo at the end of his life.

Books as vast as a sea of stars not only create civilization, but also record knowledge.

Even if your name and I will eventually disappear in time, civilization can be born in books, and civilization will last forever.

After all, the hometown was still extinguished in the flames of war, but the soul of the hometown, as well as civilization, have been engraved in their own blood, and they have revived with the grass and trees on the plain.

The melodious sound of the Qiang flute can cleanse people's hearts and drift to their hometown with the wind on the ancient road.

The Thousand Caves City, in my heart, will always be the place where civilization was born, not the ruins at this time.

"Father, your regrets will be completed by me, and I will bring back all the books that have been lost."

As the sun sets, Garo leaves his hometown to find the books scattered by the demon attack.

And every time she finds a book, she will come to the Thousand Caves City again, and play the tune of her former hometown before the ruins.

Lingering in my heart is not only nostalgia and sadness for the past, but also hatred for the conspiracy that plunged the Thousand Caves City into war.

Later, Garo learned that the demon seed of abnormal action was not only for the collection of books in Thousand Caves, but because there were hidden secrets hidden in those books.

Garo wanted to know more about the secrets, but she found that the secret buried in the depths was beyond her reach.

If you touch it, you are likely to be in danger of your life.

However, even so, Garo will still choose to carry this sin with him.

Since his own strength is completely insufficient to compete with the conspiracy hidden in the deepest depths, why not look for a companion?

So Garo wandered through the clouds and desert until she met the giant-like man who was carrying the doorpost.

I saved her and learned his name, Su Lie.

"I'm a sinner."

"I betrayed my friend's trust in me and saw him as a villain who attracted the demon seed. The peace of the Great Wall was ruined. ”

The tall figure that is as strong as an iron wall, when the sun sets, it looks extremely sad and self-reproachful.

Sinners?

Isn't he also a sinner who bears sins?

Under Su Lie's recommendation, Garo joined the ranks of guarding the Great Wall and fighting against the demon seed together.

However, the true destination in her heart is still the homeland that has been turned into ruins.

She will still return to Thousand Caves City often, to fulfill her promise to her father again and again.

"Miss, this place is already in ruins, why do you come here so often? And now that the war in the desert is raging in the clouds, the demon seed may appear at any time, so in order to survive, you better go back quickly. ”

Someone passed by, looking at this beautiful woman, standing in front of the ruins, melodiously blowing the sound of the Qiang flute, and couldn't help but kindly remind.

Once the demon seed appears, the place where you set foot will be in ruins.

"I know."

What you want to keep is gradually drifting away, like an abandoned homeland.

What day will it be to set foot on this land again?

As the sun set gradually, Garo left his soft but firm back to the Thousand Caves City, and then disappeared into the bloody sunset.

For his best friends, Garo has thought more than once about asking them to accompany him to explore the secret hidden in the depths of the Thousand Caves.

But, that's going to kill people.

Even the Great Wall Guards may not be able to get close to the terrible truth.

The closer he gets to the truth, the more ominous the perception becomes, making Garo hover in entanglement and abandonment every time.

However, as long as I don't know the truth, the attachment in my heart to the war will never be extinguished.

Will the person who saves himself and the thousands of souls in the Thousand Cave City appear to save him?

Every day as he gazes at the setting sun and the rising stars, Garo also has this idea in his nostalgia for his homeland.

Occasionally, at a post near the Great Wall, Garo had heard more than once that the Great Wall Guards had welcomed a new man.

"I heard that the guy who just joined the Great Wall is very young! Moreover, when the demon seed was besieging the Great Wall before, he even rushed into the demon seed army alone and rescued the captain! ”

"Oh? That newcomer, is it so powerful? ”

Garo took a sip of the tea in his cup, and his mind was drawn to the people who were talking fiercely.

Newcomer?

I think I've heard of it before.

"Yes, his strength is very strong, even that terrible armor, it seems that he lost to him......"

"Isn't he, then he's still a human being?"

"His name is Lu Yu, I've seen him, and he's a very young man."

“......”

Garo paid and silently walked out of the station.

Lu Yu......

This is the first time she has heard this name, and she didn't care much about the situation inside the Great Wall before.

"It seems that you have a lot of potential."

The corners of his mouth inadvertently crossed a soft arc, and Jia Luo continued to walk in the direction of Thousand Cave City.

At this time, the sky was dark, and the sky was full of stars, all over the endless night.

Looking up, every star seems to be the soul of the homeland, guiding itself in the direction.

In that direction, it is the Thousand Caves City.

If you convert to civilization, you will never let it be destroyed easily.

The confusion in my heart seems to have a little more light.

Thousands of caves are blessed, peaceful and worry-free.

PS: I see that many gentlemen want to see Galo, so let's bury an introduction here.

However, it's the first time I've written extra, and if I have enough water, I can only write like this.

If you like this kind of heroine's side story, I will update other ones in the future.
