Chapter 689 Fengqi Desert 3

......

A small restaurant.

"Xiao Er, here are two specialty dishes and a pot of wine!"

"Howler!"

As soon as I looked at Yang Chen, I knew that it was from outside, and the boss was also enthusiastic, and he did it quickly.

"Guest officer, your dish, please use it slowly!"

Although he didn't need to eat, Yang Chen still couldn't quit, because he felt that eating felt good.

Whew......

It is relatively dry here, and there is often a strong wind, but the people here are used to it, Yang Chen stays in this place for a morning, guests come and go, only Yang Chen is in a daze, drinking a few pots of wine and ordering a few dishes.

"Little Er, the nearest city is in that direction!"

"Guest officer, the villain has never been far away in his life, don't you know?"

"I don't know?"

"Don't say it's a villain, even if it's the whole town, no one may know about it, no one has ever heard of it!"

"Forget it!"

He didn't bother with it, it was true that there were no cultivators here, they were all ordinary people, and it might be normal to not know.

He continued to eat his own food and drink his own food, and did not rush to the road.

"Hey, let's go......"

I don't know when, an unkempt beggar came to the door of the restaurant, Xiao Er gave him a little food, judging from Xiao Er's reaction, this beggar is not the first time to come, because the things for the beggar are wrapped in advance.

After the beggar left, Xiao Er sighed again and again;

"Iniquity, iniquity!"

The beggar aged Long Zhong gradually disappeared in front of their eyes, looking at the rickety back, there was a trace of sadness and a sigh in Xiao Er's eyes.

Watching this scene silently, Yang Chen drank all the wine in the cup.

Leaving some broken silver, Yang Chen left quietly, looking at the town with smoke curling, Yang Chen felt a little, the peace here, isn't it what he wants?

"It's calm here, but how many people in this world can enjoy this peace calmly?"

It seemed to be talking to himself, but at this time, the busy shopkeeper raised his head to talk.

"What do you say objectively?"

Yang Chen smiled slightly, did not speak, but drank a glass again.

"I'm so envious of you!"

His smile was a little meaningful, but the shopkeeper's eyes flashed with a light that was different from ordinary people at this time, sharp and wise!

"There aren't many people on the streets today, and there's a lot of stuff left!"

At this time, an old woman staggered in, with some vegetables on her back, and it seemed that she had not sold out.

"Mother, it's okay, if you can't sell out, eat more!"

The shopkeeper took the basket and put it on the ground, handed her a clean towel, and poured a pot of hot tea.

"Mother, sit down, I'll rub your shoulders!"

"Forget it, let's get busy, are there any guests?"

The old man smiled at Yang Chen, Yang Chen got up and saluted, without speaking.

Life may be simple, but everyone's pursuit is different.

Turning around and still leaving, there are things that are not suitable for you after all. He left a pill on the table, a pill to strengthen his body, although these few small dishes and a few pots of wine are not worth the money, but he doesn't care.

He was keenly aware that the old man's time was short, up to three years, so he was just helping her relieve her pain.

Perhaps, the shopkeeper didn't stop her mother from doing these things, it just made her feel that she was still useful, and she couldn't be idle all day, so she would be uncomfortable and unhappy, this is what her parents thought.

Looking at the pills on the table, the shopkeeper's hand trembled slightly, and he was stunned when he looked at Yang Chen's distant back, and he didn't come back to his senses until his mother called him.

After chatting with his mother for a while, he went to the backyard to chop wood, and with a flick of the rusty woodcutter, a log was divided into eight pieces and neatly laid aside.

Yang Chen didn't change his direction, but went all the way, he wouldn't go back the same way, so he had to move forward, anyway, this kind of thing of cultivation was the same there, but he didn't find that he was becoming more and more like an ascetic, and he realized his own way in the earthly world.

Crackling......

I don't know how long I walked, there was a loud noise overhead, and when I looked up, I didn't know when it was already dark clouds, the wind was fierce, and the heavy rain came in an instant.

He shook his head with a wry smile, and instead of shaking off the rain with his anger, he let the raindrops hit his body, and walked forward in the rain, and he also had a feeling.

A heavy rain lasted for several hours until the evening.

The dark clouds receded, the setting sun sprinkled on the earth, and thick water vapor rose from the earth, and this place clearly felt dry, and the rain that had just fallen was rapidly evaporating at this time.

What Yang Chen didn't know was that such rain was only once or twice a year, and it was pure luck that he could meet it.

The vegetation is becoming more and more scarce, the earth is gradually cracking, the sound of the wind, the sand is moving, the tall cactus, and the shriveled corpses of birds and beasts that he occasionally encounters, it is Yang Chen who understands that he has walked towards the edge of the desert.

"Desert, do you want to go home?"

The desert is not fun, and it is only now that he has reached the border, it is naturally too late to go back, but he seems to have a vague feeling that it is right to insist.

Arm-sized poisonous snakes swam among the rocks foraging for food, but Yang Chen was not worried, they posed no threat to him.

There are relatively few species here, there are not a few, and the places where the consciousness senses are snakes, insects, rats and ants.

Cuckoo......

The owl stands among the rocks, its eyes searching for prey.

Gophers cautiously poke their heads out and sneak cautiously.

Hiss......

A small snake that had already been laid in ambush bit him and quickly poured venom, and the gopher squeaked a few times and lost consciousness.

Puff puff......

The air fluctuated, and the owl moved when it heard the sound, and its sharp claws grabbed the little snake, and its wings flew into the air with a shock.

The praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches are no more than that.
