Chapter 230: The Story of the Thrilling Sword
In the end, the name of the white wolf was finally decided, it was called Chasing the Wind, and I felt that its speed was indeed quite fast, especially the high-energy moment of biting the buttocks. Baidu search literature network, more good free reading.
It's a pity that this white wolf is not a mount, how can Qiu Xiaobai observe its attributes and tests, this white wolf does not have the slightest consciousness to be tamed, and after trying again, it attracted Qing Liu'er's strange eyes, and he had to give up.
With the existence of chasing the wind, the two of them are not lacking in joy in this closed valley of flowers, it will consciously go to the medicine garden to pick some vermilion fruits, and bring them to the stone cave where the two live temporarily, Qiu Xiaobai is naturally not very interested in this kind of fruit without attributes, but for fear that Qing Liu'er will be different, he has to eat two of them every time he eats, which is better than sweet and sour, and it is more delicious.
Qing Liu'er never mentioned the idea of leaving here, which made Qiu Xiaobai completely confused, and he didn't ask anything, because he believed that Qing Liu'er would take him out soon, and for the sake of the more than 500 soldiers in the desert of the sand sea, it was impossible to let them go and let them die.
For Qiu Xiaobai, the only regret at present should be that the snow has fallen, and he should have been practicing for two days, but it still seems that there is still no progress, whether it is the flat push or the upward pick, it is the fastest speed within his original attack speed attribute, and it cannot be faster, which breaks his expectations.
Time continues to be postponed, two days have passed in the real world, and there is still no progress in the sword swinging in Qiu Xiaobai's hand, during which in addition to briefly explaining the reason for this with Lin Xiyi, he received a complaint from the pearl of gold, saying why he didn't take him to upgrade, he was bored alone, and so on, Qiu Xiaobai didn't reply to this kind of complaint that implied a broken back, so it was not a follow-up.
The only thing worth mentioning is that the time for the first offline tournament held by the god is approaching, and it will be about two days later, and it stands to reason that the version update will be tomorrow, and the news is sealed in this task, and I don't know how many levels the little fat man has practiced, whether it will reach level forty
Looking at his thirty-fifth level, Qiu Xiaobai didn't know what to say, he just hoped that he would finish all the tasks in this section as soon as possible, and maybe he could be promoted to the next level.
In the green grassland, Qing Liu'er and the white wolf chasing the wind were running far away.
Qiu Xiaobai looked at the picturesque scenery and felt a lot of emotion in her heart, but she didn't expect so many things to happen in just a few days.
"It's almost time now, shouldn't we go back to the desert of the sand sea?" Qiu Xiaobai hesitated for a while, got up and stepped forward to ask.
"Speaking of which, I don't know what happened to Ah Long and Ah Hu." Qing Liu'er nodded, her words full of worry.
"Then let's go, speaking of which, these soldiers are still quite innocent and cute."
Qiu Xiaobai remembered the first time he entered the village and was tortured by the two little ghosts, if he hadn't won Wang Defa at that time, he was afraid that he would really not be able to join this army.
"Chasing the wind, come and assemble." Qiu Xiaobai's hands formed into a trumpet, and he said in a loud voice, the white wolf had a very human hearing, and when he heard the sound, he ran on all fours and flew quickly.
"It also loves to play here." Qing Liu'er tugged at the hem of her skirt and spoke.
"This is really a fairyland on earth, and I will always remember the stories that happened here." Shan Yi grabbed the grass roots on his back and held them in his hands, with these slightly stunned looks, he looked at the white clouds in the sky from a distance, and then said, "And you." ”
"If I have the chance, I think I'll come back here." Qing Liu'er also sighed with emotion.
"Huh." Chasing the wind stood beside Shan Yi and raised his head and screamed, his low-hanging tail kept fanning.
"You see, Chasing Wind misses it too." Qing Liu'er looked sideways and chuckled.
"No, it should have something to say."
Qiu Xiaobai also looked at the wind chasing a little abnormally, through the past few days he has nothing to do with it to get along with training, and he knows a lot about it, although it is usually happy, although it will also make a "hehe" sound, but it will definitely not wag its tail downward so weirdly.
Chasing the wind slapped his tail for a while, then slid to Qiu Xiaobai's feet, pecked the hem of his robe, and motioned to follow it.
The two followed all the way, and they came to the foot of a young peak, chasing the wind in front of them, guiding them to a dark and closed place.
There is actually an underground palace here, and it seems that the construction inside is also very grand and exquisite.
Qiu Xiaobai followed all the way, chased the wind across the hall, and landed on a vase in the inner hall. The vase is very large, half a human in height, ceramic style, the bottle is upright, full of beauty, and the autumn wind leaves are painted on it.
When I entered the inner hall, I saw Chasing Wind spread his paws, stood on the edge of the bottle and shook for a while, pouring out a large number of things from the bottle.
There are pitch-black abacus, small jade pendants, and various picture scrolls and papers, Yu Xiao poured out a long sword that was hidden before.
Qiu Xiaobai saw this long sword at a glance, and felt that it was exactly the same as the sword when he looked at the mirror image that day, and the sword body had a red glow all over the body.
I didn't expect to meet here, this is the weapon in the hand of the man at that time, if you guess correctly, it should be the weapon of the second son.
Chasing the wind picked up the sword and handed it to Qiu Xiaobai, and then pulled out a string of jade stones from the ground and gave it to Qing Liu'er, which surprised the two of them for a while.
Xiaobai screamed dissatisfied.
The sword is full of brilliance, the carving is clumsy, and the picture of the Nine Dragons arch pillars attached to the scabbard is the icing on the cake, which is more powerful and domineering, and the touch is cold and warm, which makes him love it.
Sword V45 Quest Item: Legend has it that the sword light of this sword can be compared to the light of the Sword when it flies out, and the power is even broader than that of the Shocking Flood.
"Look at this." When Qiu Xiaobai was admiring the sword, Qing Liu'er brought over a map.
"It turns out that this is the West Wind Underground Palace, and there are these" Qiu Xiaobai pointed to a few places on the map and said: "The places where we came, the Tibetan Wind Cave, the Gathering Water Cave, the Gouhuo Pavilion, and the Guiding Thunder Cave are all marked on them." ”
"There's a direct exit to the outside world, which makes it much easier for us." Qing Liu'er glanced at him and said, and immediately touched the jade on her wrist with love.
"Chasing the wind, your means of giving gifts are no problem." Qiu Xiaobai got such an incomparably domineering sword, so he naturally couldn't close his mouth with a smile.
Although it was only a task item, it was still quite happy for him, so Qiu Xiaobai immediately kneaded the neck of the chasing wind on the side to express his gratitude.
"This sword in your hand is not simple, look at this." Qing Liu'er took out the parchment roll and handed it to Qiu Xiaobai.
"Wow, this sword is not small." After a cursory reading, Qiu Xiaobai took the sword in his hand, held the hilt and quipped: "Obviously, in this bloody and bloody rivers and lakes, the rise of a peerless master is unstoppable. ”
He was carrying two swords behind him, and it seemed that there really was some figure of the second son.
"Look at the nearby secret passages, let's get out quickly" Qing Liu'er pouted, too lazy to pay attention to him.
"I can't pull this sword."
He really couldn't pull the sword, and even with all his might, the blade still didn't come out of its sheath.
But in the next moment, his eyes were covered by a white light.
Last night's rain was very heavy, and the water in the east of the city river was a few feet higher, and there were several places where the villages and trees lived in the mountains and the sparsely wooded roads had been plowed, and the rocks were leaking.
The sound of rain in one night is naturally very loud, the rain in summer, not only the thunder disturbs people's dreams, even the rain that falls is overwhelming, breathless, the whole east of the city is full of thunder, sprinkled and sprinkled, and loses its vitality.
When the sky broke break, it was still sunny after all.
The large woodland that descends the moat to the north is the victor after the storm. They have stood tall against this natural disaster, and the green vegetation has been naturally nourished by natural water, and it is even more tenacious and resilient.
The mountains are steep, the new leaves and rain dew, the beautiful trees are flourishing, and many tooth seed mushrooms are taking root overnight, and the whole forest is lush and green, like mushrooms after the rain, and it is new.
The air in the forest is fresh, the birds are ethereal in the morning, the sun is sprinkled with a little bit of sunshine, and the place where the water vapor is thick, there is still a curved rainbow, which is indeed a fairyland on earth.
Birds flutter their wings and chirp far away.
There are gentle steps, humming a soft and cheerful tune, she carries a small bamboo Lou on her back, dressed in yellow velvet satin, in this huge forest, like a little bee that has been dancing, free and unrestrained.
The woman is beautiful and moving, green silk holding her head, wearing a hairpin, about twenty years old, her eyes are clear and smart, not her face is happy, she squats down, and seems to have found the herbs to be picked on this trip, it seems that she is very familiar with this place, and she has been to several places in a row, and the bite behind her is already full.
The woman was followed by a white wolf, with silver light all over her fur, majestic and majestic, half human height, and her eyes were indifferent when she scanned her surroundings, looking arrogant and lonely. It ran around for a while, and then found the locust tree and squatted down, and then it was a woman who was picking medicine with soft eyes looking at the laughter, full of spirituality.
Last night's rain moisturized things, and a few herbs grew in the potholes, but the grass was covered all over the ground, and there were traces of heavy water washing, so I couldn't see if it was a quagmire place, and it was not good to venture for a while.
Her beautiful eyes wandered, staring at the herbs in the mire a few more times, looking a little timid, holding a branch and carefully probing it, finally took off her shoes and socks, and walked cautiously.
The grass hid her flawless calves, with a tingling feeling, her face was itchy and shy, and her curved eyes turned into a crescent moon.
A woman can walk in this swamp without fear of timidity, or in this no-man's land in the early morning haze, but she is quite bold.
"Little wolf, come."
She snorted softly, and before beckoning, the wolf galloped over, rubbing his head affectionately against her trouser leg, and seeing him shake his head and tail, he was also very happy to think about it.
"I didn't expect this lingering leaf to be really hard to find, but fortunately, I found it." The woman spoke pleasantly, and when she said this, she burst out laughing, obviously thinking of something happy.
She picked a handful of lingering leaves by the swamp, and became more and more happy, and went barefoot to the waterhole, sat down on a small stone slab, and began to dig out the herbs from the bamboo basket, and washed them carefully.
"Ahh
At this moment, there was a noise in the pile of reeds behind her, and when she looked back, she saw a few wilted hairs whizzing down, and there was silence all around.
At the moment, my heart was tight, and I took the branch to explore the way, and walked over with a sound.
Without words, Xiao Bai had already shot away, staring around the shaking reeds from the wolf, and then opened the reeds with his front paws and began to sniff wildly.
The sneezes of the things in the pile of reeds became louder and louder, and she frowned, tightened the branches in her hands, closed her eyes and barely picked up the wet leaves covering the things, and poked the bucket with the branches.
Lying in the pile of reeds, of course, was not a thing, a man, a man covered in tatters and swarthy.
There were no less than 100 wounds all over his body, his whole clothes were scarred and bloodstained in tatters, his hands were bent behind him in a strange folded shape, his face was covered with black mud, his eyes were closed, he could sleep soundly in such a position, because she saw that he was still babbling
She was so frightened that she couldn't hold back her vomiting, squatted down, and probed her nose, but he was not dead and breathing evenly.
The woman's face was a little nervous, and she was a little surprised by her inexplicable behavior, and she obviously heard a sneeze
Looking at his appearance, will his hands be broken, the arms that are still intact cuffs are already swollen, and it rained a lot last night, and I don't know how long it has been soaked.
Xiaobai was licking his arm and circling around him, a rare intimacy in her eyes.
"Wake up." As a last resort, the woman had no choice but to stab his body with a branch again.
Of course, the man couldn't respond, only stared at her with eyes full of vicissitudes, and the pain was almost lost after being blistered for so long.
"If you encounter it, you can't see death without help, forget it, if you meet Dr. Ben, you are lucky."
She thought about it, but decided to save him, she was a doctor, a well-known doctor in Fushan Town.
She has saved a lot of people, kind-hearted, dislocated bones and so on is a must, there are many people who praise her in person as the holy hand in medicine, but there are very few people who really thank her, just because she is very beautiful, has great strength, and people are very enthusiastic.
After tiptoeing and hesitating for a long time, the man was already moving.
A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, he held back the pain in his body, and said weakly: "It turns out that I haven't died yet, young lady, thank you." Baidu search literature network, more good free reading. ”
The man's face was muddy, the whole person was pitch black, and only a mouthful of white teeth was eye-catching, and this mouth startled her, and he fell to the ground again with a shake of his hand, let out a muffled snort, and fainted.
Never seen such white teeth smile at her since she was a child, the woman was a little weak-hearted, squatted down and pushed a few times, barely tidied up the short hair between his ears, and finally helped him to the waterhole.
His clothes were scattered and really tattered, and he was just about to help her sit down and prepare to wash them, when his clothes were torn apart with a bang, and the whole person suddenly slipped into the water.
The woman sighed, covered her cheeks, and was ashamed: There is really no need to be busy now, he should be able to wash it himself
"I choose a dog belt, my little sister, you save people and save people, don't bring such a rough one, okay?"
Choked on the water a few times, the man was weak, so he simply stopped pretending to be dizzy, and lay on his back in the water, covering an indescribable key position and looking at the woman.
"I, I didn't mean to" The woman's face was blushing, her eyes dodging and she didn't dare to look at him.
"I know," the man said with a relieved smile, reassuring her.
She just wanted to ask, but she saw him stroke his slippery chest and said, "My figure, there's nothing wrong with it."
After carefully rinsing, the man showed his true face, with long pale blonde hair, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, dark eyes, a tall nose bridge, ** upper body with perfect eight-pack abdominal muscles, and the lower body wearing thick linen pants, the thin figure gives people a kind of blood full of strength, and the delicate face has a strange handsome and handsome face.
The sun was shining, and he looked up at the white clouds in the sky, looking comfortable, and she suddenly didn't dare to look at it.
"Your hand is fine, I'm clear," she did, seeing his arm bent.
"Well, I just twisted it in the water, don't worry." The man looked at the torn shirt and felt a little sorry, then got up from the water, stared at her again and said, "Thank you for saving me." ”
"Then why did you end up here" She showed a skeptical look, but she forgot to be shy, and her little head leaned forward a little more, looking extremely cute.
"Little sister, why don't you give me something to eat, and I'll tell you slowly." The man smiled, but his stomach was croaking with hunger.
"You wait." Her cheeks flushed, and she turned around and pulled a few dry cakes out of her arms.
"Well, I'll go find some leaves first, and I'll come when I go." The man pointed to his bare upper body and said calmly.
Only the woman who panicked in an instant was left, quickly covering her face, and she was delicate.
The sky has long been clear, with blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and green waters.
The two sat side by side on the edge of the pool, and the man devoured the shriveled bread with a look of satisfaction on his face.
The woman was on the side, watching quietly.
"So, you're homeless" The woman's cheeks flushed, trying to avoid her gaze.
She didn't talk much, and her tone had a faint cold arrogance, but she really looked like a little fairy.
"Yes, I'm a refugee, and I'm really homeless." The man didn't care, stuffed the last piece of dry biscuit into his mouth, and continued: "My name is Jige, young lady, what's your name?"
He said about the refugees lightly, but there was no sadness between his eyebrows, and the woman glanced at it complicatedly, but she couldn't guess it.
Staying where he was, he waited for a long time before he heard this sentence in the wind:
"Come with me"
"That's okay, your medicine basket is too heavy, so I'll do it."
Fushan Town is not big, and in Jige's eyes, it is a bit unworthy of the name.
Crossing the two verdant peaks and crossing the forest stream suspension bridge, the scenery is very different, and what catches your eye is the cliffs and cliffs that fly sand and rocks, and this is what the woman called Fushan Town.
The town of Fushan was originally located on the edge of the desert. It's still such a secret place, and in the Jiger image, the furnace is a little more appropriate, and I didn't expect to come to such a place.
On the side of the rocky hills, there are dozens of stone houses piled up with huge stones, and the round looks like several carved stone giants.
It's just that this place, how can it be so destitute and poor, he glanced at the woman in yellow in front of him who was not in a hurry, and for a while the monk was really confused.
As we got closer, we could see that several small tents had been set up in front of each stone house, a bit like a yurt on the grassland. There were a few sheepskin blankets on the floor, and Gig glanced around the room, which was also very simple, just two chairs and an incense table.
There are several iron frames in the open space in the middle, and there are large iron pots on the stone slabs on the ground, and small copper kettles.
Jige sighed in his heart, if the master did not object, it seemed that he would have to find a way to improve the conditions here.
When the woman arrived, she went into a tent and looked at it, took out a set of clothes from the wooden box and handed it to him.
Gig was not polite either, and changed her clothes on the spot, of course, after she left.
Then he motioned for him to remove the medicine basket behind him, and began to pull out some bottles and cans from a stone house, and Jig was a little puzzled for a moment.
"This dress, well, double refreshing and double spirit"
"Little sister, you have something to say, you don't say a word, how nervous I am to see it."
Jige said a little helplessly, took a mallet, and began to learn to pick up the herbs.
"Speaking of which, I have something in common with you." The woman glanced at him, her expression was complicated, and then she said softly: "Now that there are wars and disasters in southern Xinjiang, there is tyranny everywhere, and the name is not good. “
"I was also a year ago in this place, lost my memory, fortunately rescued by Qiu Lao, I survived, Qiu Lao erudite and benevolent, saw that I was pitiful, so he left me to live, and taught me the method of curing diseases. And this small piece of stone house, which was built by Qiu Lao, is now adopted by dozens of lonely children, fortunately, it is in a remote location, no one to guide it, and no one to enter. The woman's tone was soft, with a hint of reverie.
"Then you're quite pitiful," Jige nodded sympathetically, and then sighed, "But it doesn't matter, with me, you won't be so pitiful." ”
After looking at him for a while, the woman rolled her eyes, stopped looking at him, and concentrated on grinding the herbs.
"Is someone sick with your herbs?" asked Gig when he saw the dried herbs she had prepared on the wooden shelf beside him.
"These herbs are for Qiu Lao."
"What kind of trade market is there around here?"
"Marketplace"
"Yes
"Yes."
"That's easy to say."
Of course, the woman didn't know what he meant, and Gig smiled mysteriously without elaborating much.
As the two were talking, they heard the sound of laughter and playing.
"Sister Qing, I'm back so early"
"Look, Sister Fang also brought guests."
There were two children about the age of **, wearing twinestring pigtails, running over, with the glow of the morning sun, their faces were red, and they were smiling happily.
Dressed in a washed white coarse linen gray cloth robe, or a pair of twins, walked to the woman, also squatted down, divided all kinds of herbs, after the woman's introduction, Shan Yi scanned, and barely distinguished that there was a red cloth patch on the shoulder is the elder brother Ah Long, and the hip is worn out and has not been repaired is the younger brother Ah Hu.
Gig smiled heartily and said hello.
Seeing that Ah Hu's face turned red, he suddenly looked at the woman and asked, "Is Sister Qing going to get married?"
"How can my sister get married here" Miss Qing didn't finish speaking, she was already suffocated, and suddenly realized that the marriage she said was related to the man in front of her, she glanced at it, and said calmly: "Sister still has a lot of things to do here, how can she get married first"
"Then this man" Aaron also gathered around, staring at Jige, his shining eyes a little hostile.
There was still such an idea in these years, and there was no need for the woman to explain it, and Jige jumped up on the spot.
raised his big hand, and in the woman's amazement, gave each of these two little children one and hugged them.
When the child was frightened, he saw him pointing at the woman with one hand, touching the back of his head with the other hand and smiling honestly: "The two of you are too worried, I was invited by this sister Fang to herd cattle, I heard that in this barren mountain and wild mountains, it is not very safe to herd cattle, so I invited me from the market, and I didn't talk about feelings, only mentioned herding cattle." ”
The two children were really innocent-hearted, and when they heard that they were just herding cattle, they didn't even hide it, and they each ran into the house, took out bamboo swords and flutes to give to Shan Yi, maybe this is the definition of making friends in the eyes of children in this era.
Jige was also a little amused, shaking his head and sighing, once upon a time, he was just like them, so carefree.
"Sister Qing, are the children here so hospitable" Jige put away all the things in his arms and put them in the stone house. I really didn't expect to be so popular.
"You've misplaced it." Miss Qing's cold voice came, a little displeased.
"How to say"
"That's where I lived"
"I'm sorry, can I have a house to live in," Jig smiled and begged for mercy as he met his cold gaze.
"Your house is there." The Qing girl pointed at the green onion, her tone was rapid, and Jige shrunk her neck, only resigned.
Jige hurriedly reminded himself to be smarter, the murderous aura behind her back, maybe this girl will also do martial arts, if a sword takes her own life, it will be miserable.
The house looks okay, and I don't know how the bed is, whether it's suitable or not. Only then did I remember that there were no household utensils such as gargling and bathing
"Herding cattle, aren't you stupid?" came the slightly curious quipping voice of the Qing girl from behind.
"You're sick and sick, so who can I do with such things," Jige said, pointing to the stake outside the courtyard, and said in a lonely voice.
There, a cow was flicking its tail to catch flies
Ji Ge's mind is lively, but he is not worried about whether the old man Qiu in the mouth of the Qing girl will be taken in, after all, living here is really not much love.
Looking at the empty room, I really don't feel anything, it's clearly a grocery room, my brother, that's a little
Fortunately, he is not a golden nobleman, he laughed at himself, began to roll up his sleeves, and tidied up.
The stone house is well ventilated, with two swaying wooden windows, and all kinds of messy things are placed on the shelves, all kinds of books, dry goods, weapons, and fishing gear.
Gig also likes to do housework, and he used to do it too, so he could calm down and think while tidying up his chores.
He could accept his unexpected arrival, but he had to think carefully about the reason for his arrival. At that time, the heat wave hit and there was ice invasion of the body, could it be the painful experience that was still retained in the coma
He wondered why he was here, he wondered why he was here, he was surprised that there was a faint pain in his back from time to time, he was dressed in shabby clothes, and his hair was messy with long blond hair, if he was just in a coma, then why was there no memory of the past, was it a grudge and a grudge, someone was chasing and killing or
Quack.
Oops, hungry.
Gig clapped his hands, shook off some dust, and prepared to get up and go outside to get something to eat.
"Is this how you tidy up things" At some point, Miss Qing stood at the door.
"It's okay, it's not a secret, I'm in my hometown, that's also the existence of the young master, whether it's men or women, young or old, you have to call me the second young master when you meet" Jige raised his eyebrows, his expression was extremely proud, and then said: "It's you, don't be busy making breakfast, and have time to run to make fun of me"
"Should this be the reason why you don't tidy up properly" Miss Qing tied her hands, her beautiful eyes flowed, and she hid a smile, and her words were concise, but she didn't argue about his identity as a young master.
"Ahem, I still think it's good when you save me, Miss Fang in the reservoir, gentle and virtuous, and empathetic." Gig smiled awkwardly and tried to change the subject.
"The implication is that I am not gentle and virtuous now," Jige was about to stop talking, but Miss Qing refused to let him.
"Where to say the clear girl is blue-hearted, ingenious, forgiving the contemptible people for not choosing words, acting rudely, and not tidying up well, if Miss Fang intends to teach, please do it." Jige praised it, then waved his robe, bowed, and smiled.
Looking sideways, Miss Qing really couldn't stand the praise, her face was flushed at the moment, and she stood there with a shy expression, completely devoid of the calm and wisdom she had when she first came.
With Giger nodding, he walked over with small steps and helped organize things.
"The bed is very clean." Miss Qing looked at the bed that Jige had carefully wiped.
"Girl, that's all we can do." Gig spread his hands and pretended not to understand.
After a busy work, it was finally sorted out, Jige wiped the sweat from his forehead, this is wiping, and classifying, and he was so busy that he almost tired him down.
"Thank you, Miss Qing." Gig leaned over and said.
"Thank me for what," she replied casually, her eyes still looking at the furnishings in the room.
"Thank you for calling me breakfast, I'm already hungry." After only three seconds, Gig clutched his stomach and walked out.
"Ah, so you already knew." Miss Qing clasped her hands behind her back, her expression was not angry, but her steps were a little brisk.
"But thank you for helping me so much, when I couldn't move an inch." Before he lifted his leg and went out the door, Gig stopped talking, but finally he turned his head, stared at her, and said, "Can I promise you one thing, no matter what situation I fall into in the future, as long as you are willing to send, I will do it for you." ”
"So I'll just leave the rest to me." Jig suddenly said something unbelievable.
At the moment when she was shocked and lost her mind, she winked at her playfully, and then walked out with her head held high, facing the sun.
After the propaganda of Ah Long and Ah Hu and the two children, they already knew that there was a guest, and he was also a respected cattle herder.
A total of more than ten children have all arrived, and it is almost the autumn old in everyone's mouth.
Jige has also been looking forward to Qiu Lao for a long time, after all, he decided to eat and drink here.
Smiled and shook hands with them and hugged them, but unfortunately, there were children under the age of ten in front of him, and Shan Yi was also a little difficult to communicate, so in the face of many puzzled eyes, Jige had to smile and explain that this is a kind of etiquette for people in the city to express their love, and promised to buy some candy for each of them when they enter the city in the future.
Qiu Lao's appearance is amazing, ** the arms outside are bronze skin, the whole person is wearing a black tight tunic cloth, steady steps, clear eyes, the face is not aging, but there is a masculine handsomeness, at this time the head is wrapped in a white towel, calm and calm, and is also looking at this outsider.
In addition to the snow-white beard that is extremely incompatible, the whole person gives people the feeling that they are outside the world at first glance, and there is a capable master atmosphere all over the body.
He does not hide his momentum, it seems to be random and natural, but in fact it is compelling.
Gig thought that he had always been good, so after thinking about it, he decided to show his hand and break the tense atmosphere first.
A few children were very happy to eat, and when they saw him open his thigh, his right hand stretched out his index finger, his left hand flat on it, and his brows were furrowed and he couldn't bear to say in thought:
"Qiu Lao, please raise your noble hand, it's just a small student below, and I can't hold back the chicken, I really can't stand it if it goes on like this."
Qiu Lao was not as serious as he imagined, and after a few glances, he treated everyone equally, softly told the child to finish eating quickly, and only nodded slightly to him, without paying too much attention to him, which made the nervous Jige relax a lot.
It seems that life here will take some time for me to get used to.
The breakfast in the cauldron was simple, boiled with unknown wild vegetables and millet, which belonged to gruel, and smelled fragrant.
Jige, who had already had an empty stomach, would not be polite, and had already raised two bowls of cold gruel to dry it first.
This feeling of a big pot of rice, the warm scene is vivid, and Jige thinks back to the military era, where several close friends sat together, eating peanuts, and wine, chatting and talking about ideals together.
The carefree times are always fast, until they are later stranded in the depths of memory.
After the children finished breakfast, they had already scattered as birds and beasts, and went to do the tasks assigned by Qiu Lao, picking up some dry firewood and sifting some rice millet.
Jige was still looking forward to the time when he really wanted to go to herd the cattle, but Qiu Lao came over and told him softly, and went to him in the evening to have something to say to him.
"I'm really not good at washing dishes." Jige looked at the Qing girl who stayed here, so he had to help clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and said helplessly.
"Don't worry, do you see that stone mountain?" Miss Qing pointed to a low mountain road not far away.
"Well, what do you say?" said Giger, questioning.
"There's a spring behind the low hill, go get two buckets of water." She pointed to two wooden barrels that had been placed aside.
The low mountain said that it was not far away, and that it was not close, and Jig was already sweating profusely and panting just by carrying the empty bucket over.
When you come closer, you will be in despair, this spring is not floating water, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a well. There were dozens of circles of rattan rope on the side, and God knows how deep this seemingly black wellhead is, and the water may not be able to lift it.
I really can't think of how the people here fetch water, it seems that it's time to help them, although I don't know anything, but to improve the environment, it's always okay to make a hand-cranked water machine.
There are ready-made piles of logs on the side, Jige weighed the degree of firmness, and began to make them, building a bracket at the wellhead, saving labor and effort, and dividing five logs on one side, bundled together, similar to a barbecue bracket, hanging a whole sheep or something in the middle.
The log is the thickness of a wrist, and it should be more than enough to withstand a bucket of water, and then it only needs to be fixed to ensure that it is secure.
It's just that this soil is all black soil, and I can't stand it, so I'm afraid that it won't last long.
If you make a few sections of thick wood, make a hole with the thickness of your wrist, bury it in the ground, and prop it in, so that the force of the square underground is circulated, and the whole structure of drawing water is naturally solid.
Gig found a twig and drew it on the ground.
The girl seemed to be idle, and when Gig finished composing, she appeared.
A yellow silk dress, simply holding a green silk hair with a hosta, beautiful appearance, playful appearance, holding a delicate sword in her hand, such a fairy out of the dust looked at Jige startled, and looked around her for a long time before he was sure that it was really her.
This is the first time that Jige has experienced the real long sword, not to mention that it attracts attention, it is simply a crazy and cool hanging bomb, and he touched it from her hand and stroked it carefully.
The scabbard is engraved with the pattern of double dragons playing with pearls, the whole scabbard is flowing with gold wires, the indescribable atmosphere is magnificent, the hilt is carved with a night pearl, the position of the beads is inlaid with several red sapphires, the scabbard is organized and flowing, the sword body is narrow and smart, the blade is sharp and narrow, and the swallow mouth is carved with a golden phoenix, graceful and beautiful, it is really rare.
Gig couldn't put it down, and he didn't pretend to flick the blade with his black lacquer fingers, and then squinted his eyes skillfully and nodded, in fact, just to listen to the crisp sound of the dragon's groan.
"Dare to ask the woman, have you forgotten something," Jig said courteously, kneeling on the ground and offering his sword.
Observing words and looking at the looks, he will accept it when he sees it, it has always been his ability, and if he plays it, maybe this woman will go berserk.
"Forgot something" Miss Qing picked up the sword, took out the silk from the cuff and wiped it again and again, although she didn't dislike it openly, but this style was already obvious.
"Don't be so cold, Miss Qing, take a look again, I'm such a good follower, are you sure you don't think about it anymore" Ji Ge said this sentence casually, and he didn't expect her to understand.
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." In just half a day, she seemed to have gotten used to his nonsense, and Miss Qing snorted and came to the well, obviously more concerned about his fetching water.
A woman's curiosity is always present and great.
"What is this doing?" she dug four holes along the well in the ground, and she was staring into it with wide eyes.
"This, it's to save effort to get water, if it's really done, it will be convenient to fetch water in the future." Jige smiled, it's a little difficult to explain now, and when the time comes, I'll do a good demonstration, and I believe everyone will be able to do it.
"You should have some difficulties" Seeing his slightly frowning brows, Miss Qing picked up the scattered logs, as if inadvertently playing with the Tao, and took water with divine power
"Yes, there are no drills or other iron tools in this place, and it is even more difficult to drill a hole than to climb to the sky, let alone four." Jige got up and relaxed, he didn't expect her to care about people anymore, but now he couldn't think about it, so he had to sigh.
"This is not difficult," she said lightly, and her words seemed to have the smell of fireworks that did not eat the world.
It's not difficult, and those who were immersed in thinking couldn't help but repeat it again, before they turned around and looked at her, and said ecstatically: "So, you have a way."
"Use this."
"Isn't it good for me to use this?" Jige picked up the sword with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but stroke it.
"As long as you can use it well, I can lend it to you."
Seeing that he couldn't wait to snatch the sword, where was there still half a minute of prevarication in his words
So she smiled too, the corners of her mouth half-curved, and stood there, smiling lightly, laughing incomprehensibly.
This woman rarely laughs, and at this moment, in Giger's eyes, it is a bit like a conspiracy to succeed.
He swallowed his saliva, handed the sword back, then turned his back to her, looked up at the sky and said angrily: "I have long heard that Fang Xia Nu's martial arts are world-famous, no one can stop me, today you and I meet here, it is fate, you might as well let me see your swordsmanship, so I can help you take a look, this is today, in addition to me, there are still people who are your opponents."
"Look ahead." The woman didn't know what he had in mind, and she didn't break it, but began to concentrate and drill holes.
As the saying goes, insiders look at the doorway, and laymen look at the liveliness.
It's really a bit exquisite, Jige only saw a little bit of cold, and the sawdust flew all over the sky, and the woman opened the sheath lightly, and the four bottom pillars flew up, clicked and slashed in the air, and when they fell to the ground, they had already pierced holes the size of wrists, and it was over
Feelings and such skills, he really watched from the sidelines, and he really didn't see any doorway.
"It's amazing." Gig applauded heartily.
Let's hurry up and do something, he successively bolted four thick logs into the bottom, and the intersection of each section was tightly blocked with stones, and then covered with black soil, leaving only the place of the perforation.
Take the bracket you prepared before, thread it into the four holes, and stuff wood chips in the gaps on each side to make it firm, so that you can basically get down.
Miss Qing watched him from the side, and she didn't go to practice swordsmanship.
Jig tied the barrel one after another, lowered the rope, and was done.
Theory belongs to theory, and practice is the truth.
Jige was busy with work, calling himself too poor and not too dirty, so he sat paralyzed on the ground, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, he liked to return to his original self.
"Why don't you try it first?" asked Giger, looking back at the way she wanted to speak.
"Hmm." The Qing girl was full of curiosity, her little face flashed with a blush, and she gently rolled up her sleeves, revealing her white arms like lotus roots.
The diameter of the wellhead is one meter square, and her movements are very meticulous, after tying the barrel with a serious face, she puts the rope down little by little, and carefully pokes her head to see the situation inside.
But when she pulled an empty bucket with joy, Gig was already rolling around on the ground unscrupulously, laughing without hesitation, laughing very happily.
"The bucket is empty, no matter how you put it down like this, it will float on the water, and if you do this, it will naturally not work." Seeing her face turn cold, her anger was already overflowing.
Jige immediately took her hand seriously for a second and patiently comforted: "But it's okay, I'll teach you, you see, use a rope to wrap a few times around this handle, and then use this reason to hang it at the bottom of the barrel, and when the barrel is put on the surface of the water, shake it a few times, and the barrel will sink under force, and then pull it up, naturally it will be a bucket full of water." ”
He really didn't mean to take advantage of anything, but he felt a cool and warm feeling in his hand, and only realized that he was a little embarrassed when he saw her don't turn her head to the red neck.
I had to cough and pretend to look at the scenery: "That Xiaoqing, I still have some problems, so I'll leave first." Just follow the method I told you, try a few more times, don't be discouraged, you can. ”
When he had nothing to do, Gig walked around.
Along the dirt road, he climbed all the way.
The back mountain has an endless Gobi, with strange rocks and wild grass.
The ground is full of potholes, but there is a stone like a stele, Shan Yi carefully counted, there are as many as thirteen pieces, each of which is two people high, and there are complex and difficult to distinguish seal characters engraved on it, the handwriting is of different sizes, and some places are extended very long, saying that it is an article, giving people a feeling that it is more like a painting and calligraphy, but this is a painting that he can't understand.
The thirteen stone tablets are like this, densely written with different shapes of fonts, painted behind the wind blowing the trees, the leaves falling back to the roots, and other paintings, although there is no color rendering, but just a few strokes of this outline, it has already hit the theme, so that the people who come can see it at a glance.
Could it be that this is some kind of martial arts cheats that are not in Jige's heart at this moment, it is impossible not to be excited.
He has also read a lot of books that have become peerless masters after painstaking study and attention to the cultivation exercises, and after the development of the early trough, when encountering this kind of opportunity, the cultivation of the exercises will be completed to the fullest, and the invincible opponents in the world, without exception, will become one of the best in the rivers and lakes, the supreme martial arts.
"I really don't feel any atmosphere of the rivers and lakes, I'm wandering around like this, am I at the end of the world?"
Gig asked himself if he really had such an opportunity in front of him, would he choose?
After a war, everyone admired or passers-by were unknown
Forget it, be happy, live every day well, isn't it also a chic life, no worries
The clouds are rolling up, the flowers are blooming and falling, the dearest parents, now they are separated from each other, and the feelings of longing may be difficult to speak.
"Time slows down
Don't let you get old anymore
I'm willing to use me to change your time to stay forever
You're going to be strong
What can I do for you
Your child
Grown up"
After singing the song, and seemed to be in a much better mood, Gig made a trumpet shape with his hands and shouted to the clear sky: "I must be strong, perhaps, just to live." ”
"I thought you had run somewhere, but it turned out that you were crying your nose," she said when she said this, she was sniffing the freshly picked flowers with her nose, and her face was calm and intoxicated.
"I can't imagine that Miss Qing is not only beautiful, but also idle." Looking at the Qing girl standing not far below, Jige was a little speechless.
"I have something to tell you, you come with me." Miss Qing looked at him and said.
"Don't you have to go somewhere here" Seeing her mysterious and cute appearance, Jige couldn't help but tease her: "I heard that when a woman has been appearing next to a man, it means that this woman has begun to care about him, hey, if it goes on like this, it's not good." ”
"Love doesn't come, if you don't come, don't regret it" She didn't wait for Jig to speak, and walked down the hill with the cluster of flowers.
"Come on, Comrade Xiaoqing, I'll come to the general line" Jige was also a little curious, there must be something. Then he looked at the woman on the side and asked, "How long have you been up?"
"Soon, it's just here."
The breeze under the mountain gently stroked her long flowing hair, and she pursed the corners of her mouth with a faint smile.
Before Jige could relax, she frowned and stroked the long hair that blew into the corners of her mouth, and continued: "I also watched a big man crying and crying." ”
Ji Ge was speechless for a while, and hurriedly said: "The man is so sad that he is in love, this kind of thing, Xiaoqing should not publicize it everywhere."
Even though Jiger smelled the fragrance and came down, he still felt a little difficult to get along with, and it was always a shame that could not be mentioned when he was seen crying.
When I went down the mountain, I found that a total of more than a dozen people had arrived, as well as Qiu Lao, who was recuperating from his injuries, and surrounded by the portable water carrying well installed by Jige.
Qiu Lao glanced at the two of them, his expression was solemn, and he continued: "In my opinion, I am afraid that there is something terrible in this well." ”
Qiu Lao is a master, and what he says is naturally thoughtful.
Gig nodded briefly, and walked to the well, looked and looked, waiting for the rest of the story.
Qiu Lao stretched out his right hand and spread it out, and a golden thing shone brightly, it was gold
"It is rumored that when the ancient emperor was a young man, he fought in the north and south, and when he was along the way, he encountered bandits who occupied the mountain as the king, and the other party was large in number and the situation was critical.
At that time, there were only a few dozen tired soldiers left under the ancient emperor's command, and the bandit leader saw the opportunity to be greedy, and ordered his subordinates to tie them up and loot the treasure.
The ancient emperor has always been resourceful, and proficient in the five elements, he has been exhausted all the way to the battle, so he had to temporarily compromise, seeing this flying sand and wolf smoke, he told the bandit leader that there was a way, which could let him sit on the gold and silver mountains, glory and wealth, and enjoy endless gold and silver treasures. ”
When the bandit leader heard this, he was naturally very kind, and promised to spare his life if it was really as he said. Emperor Gu asked him to release his own soldiers first, and he was held here alone, and he had to entertain him with good wine and meat, and three days later, he was ready to cast a spell, and then the gold and silver mountains would appear at the door of this village, so that he could reach it.
The king of the mountain was already fascinated by the sound of Jinshan Yinshan, and nodded again and again to let the man entertain them with good wine and food, and then released his own soldiers, leaving only the ancient emperor alone.
Three days later, the ancient emperor took the stage at the beginning of the day.
On this day, the wind and clouds were raging, and when the belly of the fish in the east was white, the sky was golden, and then it was a golden-bodied dragon that gathered a full nine feet, and the dragon opened its teeth and claws, lifelike, floating in the air, and roaring in the sky.
The king of the mountain who was hiding on the side was naturally pleasantly surprised, he knew that this divine dragon was made of gold, but he didn't know what method the ancient emperor used, and he gathered all the flowing gold in this hundred miles.
At the end of the ancient emperor's practice, the golden dragon really agreed, as if it lost its spiritual power in an instant, became scattered sand and fell in this copper tripod, and filled it with a tripod, the ancient emperor nodded and got up to leave, who knew that the king of the mountain had evil intentions at this time, and he actually wanted to kill him with a knife to avoid disaster.
The knife hung on the top, and the ancient emperor sighed silently as if he had accepted his fate. At this critical moment, the essence of the copper tripod flashed, and the golden dragon that had gathered before reappeared, and a breath of dragon breath sprayed down, and the bandits all fell to the ground, and it was difficult to get up anymore.
The ancient emperor felt pity in his heart, and begged each other, so that it would not be ruined, all of this should be his cause and effect, leaving everyone alive, and if you want to blame, blame the king of the mountain for being greedy.
Then he said to Shenlong, and now that he has promised not to bind you anymore, you can go far away on your own, and you will no longer be subject to the orders of my emperor.
Shenlong convinced the ancient emperor that he had the common people in his heart, and was determined to solve problems for him, so he swore to guard the southern regions and never leave.
Now, thousands of years have passed, and this golden dragon has turned into the famous Crescent Mountain. ”
"This grain of gold doesn't mean anything," Giger listened intriguedly, but still felt a little incredulous.
As we all know, this Crescent Mountain is not a famous mountain fixed somewhere. It is rumored that this mountain is the golden dragon incarnation, very spiritual power, and its whereabouts are ever-changing, so in this desert there are many people have seen with their own eyes, and have also gained, and finally came to a conclusion, that is, this dragon travels, the vision is steep, and the yellow sand turns into gold everywhere it goes. Qiu Lao smiled, and continued: "This gold was salvaged from the bottom of the well by Miss Fang, this desert is already deserted and inaccessible, and the old man was able to establish this slim home here ten years ago, all because of the existence of this ancient well." ”
Qiu Lao looked bitter and told the things in his heart.
"When I was in a hurry to get here, I was physically and mentally exhausted, and when I passed by the Gobi in front of the mountain, I suddenly saw a golden light flashing inside, and the light was all over the sky. It is like a golden pillar of light, hitting the sky, and it is amazing.
Driven by curiosity, he held back his hunger and thirst and decided to come and see, and if he really gained something, it would be in vain.
I walked along the trail to the light-filled place, which lasted half an hour, and although the road was rough, I could see it clearly, but when I pushed another wooden door hidden behind the drawbridge, the scenery inside was very different.
This is actually a blessed place, and it does not mess with mortals. The square circle is several miles square, there are houses and buildings, utensils and pavilions, full of fragrance, peach trees all over the ground. On the wall hangs crystal clear fruits, bright colors; There are also fairy-tailed koi fish in the water, sparkling and colorful when swimming.
There is a blue sky above, the air is not hot and dry, I only woke up to the realization that this is a cave, but I don't know which predecessor left this cave, and then walked a few steps forward, I saw an ancient well, the ancient well is still bubbling with golden light at this time, but it is not as grand as before, the old man suddenly felt that his mouth was dry, so he took a scoop of well water, and drank it.
Strange to say, when I drank the well water, I didn't feel hungry in my stomach, and the well water lost its luster in an instant, and it turned into ordinary well water. I wanted to see what was going on, but I heard a huge chirp from the sky at this time, and when I looked up, there was a divine bird flapping its wings and flying, and the sound penetrated the heavens and the earth, and suddenly the whole cave shook more than once.
The bird and beast had a peculiar appearance, with long multicolored feathers, a crown with independent sideburns, a huge body, and a sight-catching look when it neighed, although it could not be spoken, and when I looked at it, I could see the meaning of blame in its eyes.
I was shocked and terrified. I've always heard of the demon god theory, I'd rather believe it than believe it, while making amends, while secretly saying that I was not careless and broke the rules here, the god bird is condescending, eyeing the tiger, I blame myself, pondering and meditating, can only be attributed to drinking this scoop of well water privately, the well water has already been swallowed into the stomach, how can it be taken out
The divine bird was at the beginning, but it only danced in the sky, and refused to come down, and I sincerely apologized, but instead of ignoring it, it became even more annoyed, and the corner of its mouth breathed fire in an attempt to burn me to death. I'm a mortal, so I shouldn't be the opponent of this divine bird.
It was only when I was running away desperately that I realized that after drinking the water from this well, my movements were much more sensitive. However, the divine bird was extremely powerful, and Rao was dodging left and right below, but it was still not its opponent, and after a while, his clothes were burned and tattered, and his body was also injured in several places. After my observation, although the divine bird was angry, it seemed to be afraid of this cave, and every time the flames it spit out came towards me alone, not damaging a single grass or tree, a mountain or a stone here.
When I was secretly surprised, I accidentally hit the flames spit out by the divine bird, and I felt that my back was hot and hot, burning people's souls. In a panic, I hit a certain part of the wall, and the mechanism was triggered, and the wind was thundering, and I looked up, but Fang Cai's arm was pressed on the wrist of a mural, where there happened to be a ball. The mechanism was activated, and a figure was taken from the painting, as rich as jade, with a dignified appearance, he stepped in the air, pressing the sword in his left hand, with a graceful demeanor and elegance.
The divine bird no longer breathes fire, and looks at the man who comes out of the painting from afar, with a frenzy and a little anger in his eyes.
The man smiled dumbly: "I can't imagine that you haven't gone far now, Tu Su, I have already told you, today the ancient emperor is king, all beasts must not be transformed into human form, and human lives must not be harmed, you, do you use it as a warm breeze in your ears?"
When the man was smiling like a spring breeze, his figure had already moved, and he jumped into the air, leaving only a lot of phantoms behind him.
When he saw it clearly, he had already rushed towards the divine bird, and the light flew up, slashing several swords in a row, and the divine bird had no power to fight back, and in the wailing, the body was covered with rune chains.
The man looked at it, and there was a little reluctance in his eyes, staring for a long time, but finally he turned around and said: "Chasing the wind, today I will only kill you for cultivation and spare your life, you should listen well, I am no longer your master, in this southern region when the wolf smoke is everywhere, you and I are destined to be incompatible, like strangers." Then, you don't have to wait here, this is my fate, my soul has long been gone, and now all that remains is a telekinesis. ”
"Disperse as soon as possible and return to the place where you belong, you don't have to stay here, the past is all kinds of things, it is not clear, why do you have to worry about yourself, sad and sad"
His voice was empty and profound, and his back was gloomy and lonely. After saying this, the figure drifted away with the wind, and the sun was in the sky, as if a little bit of crystal sparkling was falling down.
Qiu Lao watched it from the sidelines, and the man never said a word to him from beginning to end, thinking that he was obsessed, just for this divine bird named Chasing the Wind.
The divine bird screamed a few times, spread its wings and flew up, and circled around the sky for several days before leaving with a long roar.
Just a day after this incident, the cave began to change, the giant peak outside, the small pavilions inside, the bluestone bamboo house, the rare and exotic fruits clinging to the wall, the koi spirit objects swimming shallow on the water, the elegant bonsai, etc., all disappeared, leaving only a simple and unpretentious ancient well still left here.
Qiu Lao was grateful, knowing the favor of the immortals, and bowed to the ground and bowed again.
In the future, he decided to live here for a long time, he rebuilt the stone house layout, found a fence to enclose it, and it was barely habitable, and it was a good thing to have a fixed place to live.
In the desert, he has no intention of taking care of it anymore. Although this well no longer adds spiritual power, it also has the effect of filling thirst and hunger.
With more agile skills, Qiu Lao went out hunting during the day, cooked the garden at night, and tossed for more than ten years, but also took care of this place in a good way, and had to steam some steamed buns and steamed buns at leisure, and went out to help those who had fled from the disaster, and these children, how many of them were forced by their parents to leave them behind, hoping to survive the suffering people.
And this is the origin of the little town of Russ.
