Chapter 1: The Lonely Desert Walker
Qin Zhiyong studied history in college. In the 21st century, it is the era of industry and commerce, and it is difficult to find a job when studying history. Almost all of Qin Zhiyong's good college classmates chose to teach in school.
The only choice for studying history seems to be to teach and become a history teacher.
Historical knowledge does not bring benefits to the company.
Qin Zhiyong left school and felt that what he had learned was useless. Everyone is talking about the economy, about making money, not about culture and history.
Qin Zhiyong came to Shencheng for four or five years, but still achieved nothing.
The only thing that can bring a little comfort to Qin Zhiyong's soul is that his girlfriend "Tang Xia" is very gentle and very good to him. Let him still have a little hope in the confusion.
Ten o'clock in the morning.
Qin Zhiyong left the company with his personal belongings.
He was unemployed.
Qin Zhiyong went to the bank and took out a year's savings, 60,000 yuan.
Qin Zhiyong remembered that Tang Xia said that if she had the opportunity, she wanted to go to the desert to watch the sunset.
Because she thinks the sunset in the desert is beautiful.
He wanted to take Tang Xia on a trip to the Gobi Desert.
took out his mobile phone and dialed Tang Xia's number. Qin Zhiyong said in a calm tone: "Tang Xia, I booked two tickets to the north. Haven't you always wanted to see the sunset over the desert? I'll take you there now. ”
Tang Xia's voice came: "Zhiyong, why did you suddenly remember to take me on a trip to the desert?" Tell me the truth, are you unemployed again? ”
Qin Zhiyong pretended to be indifferent and said: "I am not happy with that company and want to change the working environment. ”
Tang Xia sighed and said, "That's unemployment." Zhiyong, you can travel alone......"
Qin Zhiyong panicked in his heart, had a bad premonition, and hurriedly said, "Tang Xia, don't be in a hurry to refuse first. I've booked all my tickets. I know you have time. Let's go out for a walk. ”
Tang Xia was silent for more than ten seconds, and her voice came again: "Zhiyong, let's break up." I'm really tired with you. What's more, I don't see our future and hope. In the future, you don't call me again. I already have a new boyfriend. ”
After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone directly.
Qin Zhiyong held the mobile phone, his eyes were out of focus, and his heart tingled. It took him three minutes to come to his senses.
"Tang Xia ......"
Tang Xia is Qin Zhiyong's first love.
Qin Zhiyong has a deep affection for her, and he really wants to be with her and grow old together.
Unfortunately, it backfired. It still ended in a breakup.
Tang Xia's departure gave Qin Zhiyong a great blow to his heart.
Qin Zhiyong returned to the rental house and cried.
The boy has tears and doesn't flick.
It's just not to the sad place.
The next morning.
Qin Zhiyong turned on his mobile phone, looked at the booking information sent by the airline, and said, "Tang Xia, since you don't want to go with me to see the sunset in the desert." Then I'll go alone. I'll take your place to see the scenery of the desert! ”
………………
Qin Zhiyong carried a backpack and walked alone in the desert Gobi.
The setting sun stretched his shadow long, and he seemed very lonely.
Yellow sand, sunset.
Between heaven and earth, a piece of gold.
Qin Zhiyong's heart is full of loneliness.
"Tang Xia, you're right, the sunset in the desert is really beautiful. It's just that I enjoy such a beautiful scenery alone, and you are no longer by my side. ”
Qin Zhiyong stood on the sand dunes, put down his backpack and mobile phone, took out mineral water, took a sip, stood up straight, and faced the sunset.
Qin Zhiyong has little ability to make money, but he has an advantage, that is, he is emotionally single-minded. Tang Xia left, and the damage caused in his heart, I don't know how long it will take to heal.
Qin Zhiyong took a few steps forward.
Suddenly.
The body sank into the sand.
Qin Zhiyong was shocked and said: "It's quicksand......" Before he finished speaking, he was drowned in quicksand.
************
Ming Dynasty, Wanli period.
On the edge of the desert, there is an inn.
The high-rollers and thieves who know this inn all call this inn the Dragon Gate Inn.
In the early morning, the sky was just dawning.
The shopkeeper took the butcher to fetch water outside the inn.
Although the Dragon Gate Inn is located on the desert Gobi Desert, there is a water source next to it. Without water, let alone opening a store, even if you want to survive, it is impossible.
After all, people can't survive without water.
The shopkeeper said to Diao Buyu, who was carrying a bucket behind him: "Diao Buyu, hurry up." You kid, as long as you leave the sight of the boss lady, you will do things slowly. If you don't reprimand you for a moment, you will be lazy. ”
Diao Buyu is a Tatar, and the Chinese language is not very clear: "I know...... Finish...... Shopkeeper's. ”
Diao Buyu is younger than the shopkeeper and has good eyes. At a glance, he saw a man lying in the same place.
"The Shopkeeper's ......"
Diao Buyu carried a bucket and followed the shopkeeper in a few steps.
The shopkeeper asked, "What's the matter?" If you have something to say, just say it, hurry up. ”
Diao Buyu said: "Over there...... There was a personal ......"
The shopkeeper looked at Diao Buyu's eyes, and sure enough, there was a person lying down.
"Let's go, go over and have a look." The shopkeeper said, "Yesterday the proprietress was complaining that the bun filling was not enough. If a person dies, you will take it back and chop it into minced meat. ”
Diao Buyu is a butcher, cutting human flesh, he doesn't have a little psychological burden: "Okay." ”
………………
Came to the lying man.
I saw that this person had short hair, smooth skin, and a young appearance, looking like he was in his twenties.
He was dressed weirdly. However, the clothes are good materials and are worth a lot of money. The shopkeeper guessed that this person might be a child of a big family. Just don't know how it will appear in the desert?
The young man who was in a coma was none other than Qin Zhiyong.
The shopkeeper said to Diao Buyu: "You go and investigate, is he dead?" ”
When opening a store in the desert, most of the people the shopkeeper met were sinister and cunning. No matter how cautious you are, you can't overdo it.
Diao Buyu took a few steps forward, tested Qin Zhiyong's snort with his fingers, and said, "Shopkeeper, the person is still alive." Just unconscious. What to do? Do you want to ......?"
Diao Buyu gestured with his hand to cut the meat.
It means whether to kill Qin Zhiyong or not.
The shopkeeper's eyes flashed and he said, "Don't kill it yet." Take it back and let the proprietress decide. ”
Diao Buyu nodded and said, "Okay." ”
Carrying the unconscious Qin Zhiyong, Diao Buyu strode towards the inn.
………………
The hostess of the inn, "Jin Inlaid Jade", is a beautiful woman.
She had just gotten up and dressed up.
The shopkeeper knocked on the door: "Boss, Diao Buyu and the shopkeeper brought back a young man dressed strangely." The shopkeeper asked the little one to ask the proprietress if he wanted to kill him to make meat filling? ”
Jin Zhuyu opened the door and said with a smile: "Kill him? That means the person is still alive. Dressed weirdly. The old lady has seen strange people, but I don't know how many. The old lady wants to see how weird this person can be. ”
The people who can eat and stay at the Dragon Gate Inn are not ordinary people, and it is normal to be weird.
It is true that he has seen many strange people.
Ruthless, vicious, hypocritical, domineering...... She's been there.
Those men who wanted to beat her with the idea of gold and jade were chopped into minced meat and made into human meat buns.
Jin Zhuyu walked a few steps, turned around and asked, "By the way, where is the person that the shopkeeper and Diao Buyu brought back?" ”
The shopkeeper said, "It's on the kitchen board." As long as the boss lady says a word, you will go under the knife if you don't meet it. ”
………………
Jin Jiyu took the shopkeeper to the kitchen, and sure enough, he saw a strangely dressed young man with short hair lying on the board.
Jin Jianyu was stunned.
She'd never seen anyone dressed like this.
"Where did you find this person?" Jin Zhuyu asked.
The shopkeeper said, "It's just outside the inn, on the sand dunes not far from the water source. Hostess, what should I do? Do you want to kill it. ”
Jin Zhuyu glared at the shopkeeper and said, "Wake him up and take a look." If he is an evil man, he will be chopped up to make a bun filling. ”
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Could it be that you are going to seduce this kid again?" Boss, your beauty, few men can resist it. ”
The shopkeeper and Diao Buyu both had smiles on their faces.
Jin Jiaoyu scolded in a coquettish voice: "Don't talk nonsense. Feed this kid some water. Wake him up first. Hurry up. ”
The people present, except for Qin Zhiyong, who was in a coma, everyone knew martial arts.
Diao Buyu stepped forward and kept slapping on Qin Zhiyong's body, and the gentle palm force vibrate.
"Uh-huh."
Qin Zhiyong frowned, and said softly, "Thirsty...... Water ......"
The shopkeeper picked up a bowl of water and gave it to Qin Zhiyong to drink.
With the moisture of the water, Qin Zhiyong felt that his throat was cool for a while, he recovered his strength slightly, and his eyes slowly opened.
Diao Buyu retreated to Jin Jiyu's side and said, "He's awake." ”
Qin Zhiyong's eyes were confused, and after a while, he came to his senses. He asked, "Thank you for saving me." Excuse me, what is this place? Is it in the hospital? ”
Not in the hospital for sure.
With his surroundings and the people present, Qin Zhiyong felt as if he had returned to ancient times.
Jin inlaid jade smiled with a variety of charms: "This place is the Dragon Gate Inn." What kind of hospital the little brother is talking about, I don't know what it is. But it is we who saved you. Dare to ask what the little brother is called? Why did you go to the desert alone? ”
Qin Zhiyong's eyes were clear, looking at the beautiful gold inlaid jade without any evil thoughts, and said calmly: "My name is Qin Zhiyong. I'm looking at the sunset over the desert instead of a person. Stepping into the quicksand. Thank you again for your life-saving grace. ”
Qin Zhiyong was too tired, and after speaking, he fell asleep again.
The gold inlaid jade was touched by Qin Zhiyong's clear gaze.
She used to think that any man would be possessive when he saw her. She never thought that a man's eyes could be so clear and clean when he saw himself with a beautiful face.
Jin Jiaoyu turned and left the kitchen.
The shopkeeper asked, "Boss, the bun filling is not enough." Kill or not, you can give an accurate word. ”
Jin Jianyu's voice came back to the kitchen: "Keep this person and send him to room eighteen." The stuffing of the bun is a little more useful. ”
