CHAPTER XLIV

Cang Huan called himself a kid to the old man, one is because the Dune Giants have a long lifespan, and this old man must be very old when he looks like this;

"Don't dare, don't dare! It's just some trivial matters in the clan, where do you dare to work for Your Highness!"

The old man hurriedly took two steps back and waved his hand, looking like he didn't dare to bother Canghuan, but he didn't mean to let go at all.

I secretly rolled my eyes, saying that I didn't dare to work hard for Cang Huan, and didn't I want Cang Huan to take the initiative to help? These old guys, all of them are sanctimonious, but they are very shrewd behind their backs, and they refuse to suffer a little loss.

Cang Huan's mind was clear, but he didn't think the old man was too much, and immediately said sincerely: "The Dune Giants guard the desert and regulate the yin and yang of the heaven and earth, which really has the work of social work and balance, and the kid is only thin and shallow, but this time he wants to ask the nobles for help, and his heart is already uneasy, at this moment, it happens that the nobles are in trouble, so naturally I should ask about it, if the matter is within my ability, I should do my best to help, if I can't do anything, I should also find another way for the patriarch." ”

As soon as Cang Huan said this, he affirmed the merits of the Dune Giants for many years of hard work in guarding the desert, not to mention his sincerity, and even Sha Batian, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but be convinced, looking complacent and grateful.

"Your Royal Highness is serious, the little Lao'er family is deeply favored by His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven, and it is within his duty to defend the territory for His Majesty, where do you dare to claim credit!"

The smile on the old man's face was flooded, and even the tight wrinkles were stretched a lot, and it was obvious that Cang Huan's words were extremely useful to him.

I'm also on the sidelines, isn't this nonsense, old man? I went back to the words, if there is really something big mess in your clan, you can just say it, old man! Canghuan has already promised that if he can help, he will help, and if he can't help, he will find another master, until the problem of the Dune Giant Clan is solved, but this old man is still here giggling, but he never says anything about business.

The old man said that he didn't dare to take credit, and on the other hand, he kept talking about how difficult the desert environment was, how violent the power of earth fire was, and how much effort the Dune Giants had to make every year for the stability of the desert.

However, I obviously underestimated the scheming of the head of the clan, and I decided to retract the previous sentence that Sha Batian was the patriarch of the Dune Giant Clan, compared to his father, this old man, this Sha Batian has no scheming and skill of the head of the clan at all!

Because after Cang Huan repeatedly praised the hard work of the Dune Giants, the old man actually took out a crystal ball and said to Cang Huan with a smile: "With His Royal Highness's words, if I want to come to this year's performance appraisal, His Highness can't embarrass my clan!"

Damn! This old man is deliberately using Cang Huan's words again! Cang Huan is the emperor Yuanzi, he personally said that the Dune Giants have made meritorious contributions to guarding the desert wilderness, and at that time, the performance assessment of the desert wilderness, the examiners on the Emperor's side will not be harsh on him anymore, this, this is really a wishful thinking!

Cang Huan saw that the old man was still showing off when his plan succeeded, and he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, and said, "You, you are really old and young, the more you live, the more you look like a child!"

I watched Cang Huan and the old man talking and laughing, and I knew that the relationship between the two of them must be unusual, otherwise after the old man "calculated" Cang Huan, he would never put his mind on the bright side, and Cang Huan would definitely not just laugh at it.

"According to what you always said, Yingyun was quite strict when he was responsible for assessing the performance of the desert?"

Ying Yun is the eldest son of the Emperor of Heaven, and from his name, it can be seen that the Emperor of Heaven attaches great importance to this first son, which clearly hopes that he will be both civil and military, and can achieve a career.

When the old man heard this, he just smiled, but Sha Batian was very dissatisfied, "Your Highness is so strict, the envoys he sent are basically picking bones in eggs, and they find fault with us every year, and our clan has not been approved by His Majesty the Emperor for a long time." Moreover, it was also His Royal Highness's envoy who said that His Royal Highness Yuanzi is the son of the Emperor, and he has no power to mobilize the desert people, so I just rejected Your Highness before!"

"Shut up, is it easy for you to talk about the master?"

The old man seemed to be very annoyed with Sha Batian's rectum, and he raised the cane in his hand to make a threat.

Sha Batian stood in place with this neck, with an attitude that you will say it if you beat me.

"Hey, the old patriarch doesn't have to be angry, the sand patriarch is just quick to talk, and he doesn't mean to offend, besides, there are only a few of us here, and this won't get out!"

Seeing that the old man was going to do the sand tyrant Tianxing, I hurriedly stood up and played a round, but I couldn't help muttering in my heart, the performance appraisal of the Eight Desolations was just a formality, as long as there was no big mess, the general assessment could be praised, why did His Highness make it extra difficult for the Desert Dune Giants?

Is this the meaning of His Royal Highness, or is this the meaning of his envoys? Also, the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor have always been in close cooperation, and he is a small envoy who dares to say such a disrespectful remark that separates the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor?

Moreover, when Sha Batian turned us away, the clarity in Cang Huan's eyes seemed to show that he was not ignorant of this situation, so does this mean that the relationship between the Emperor and the Emperor is not as harmonious as it seems on the surface?

Or, is it because this old patriarch is friendly with Cang Huan?

The amount of information revealed by Sha Batian's words was so great that I shuddered a little when I thought about it. Now that the mastermind behind the scenes is stirring up the situation of the Eight Desolations and Liuhe, if even the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor have cracks, and they are fighting openly and secretly, then this catastrophe, can the Eight Desolations and Liuhe really survive safely?

"Hmph! This time, for the sake of your honorable guest, I will forgive you for your misspeech, if there is a next time, then you can kneel down and receive the punishment yourself!"

When the old man heard my persuasion, he also felt that the ugliness of his family should not be publicized, so after snorting, he also put down the crutches he was holding high, and did not insist on teaching Sha Batian a lesson.

"I hope Your Highness will be forgiving, my son is indeed not very bright-minded, although his words are disrespectful, but he definitely has no intention of provoking!"

"Sha Lao doesn't have to mind, the Sha Patriarch is upright, and I quite appreciate this character. As for Yingyun's strictness, as long as the Dune Giants kept their duty, he didn't dare to make too outrageous moves. ”

Cang Huan listened to Sha Batian's words, and there was no big change in mood, just words of comfort, and there was no intention of pursuing it.

After delaying for a while, Cang Huan didn't want to climb anything else, but asked directly: "I don't know what difficulties the Dune Giant Clan has, so that Sha Lao is helpless?"

Hearing Cang Huan mention this, the faces of the old man and Sha Batian were solemn, and there was a worry in their eyes that could not be hidden.

Maybe it's because Sha Ba is less natural, but for some reason, I always feel that the worry in his eyes is deeper, and the old man's eyes are somewhat obscure.

"Alas, this matter is really tricky, and it even concerns the life and death of my Dune Giants!"

The old man sighed and babbled to explain the ins and outs of the matter.

It turns out that the Dune Giants live in the desert, and although they have a much lower demand for water than other races, water is the source of life, and they still can't live without water.

This can be seen from the fact that their clan land is an oasis.

A hundred years ago, although there were few desert oases, there were many more than now, but a hundred years ago, the desert wasteland was in chaos, destroying most of the oases, and only this one place still has some life.

After Taizu brought Taiyi True Water to suppress the earth fire turmoil, this oasis became the last pure land for the Dune Giants to survive, and in this oasis, there is a spring that will come out all year round, which can be described as the spring of life for the entire Dune Giants.

But not long ago, something suddenly appeared in that spring, blocking the spring, the spring was suppressed, and the only source of water for this oasis was also cut off, and there may not be anything to be seen in a short time, but if it is a long time, then this oasis is very likely to shrink or even die, so that the dune giants can lose even their last habitat.

"Something is blocking the spring?"

After listening to the old man's story, I couldn't help but wonder, if something blocked the spring, wouldn't it be better to take it away? Why bother here?

The old man naturally saw my wonders, and said helplessly: "That thing is as heavy as Mount Tai, and it can't move even the strength of my whole clan!

The strength of an adult dune giant is not to mention that he is not able to resist the mountains, but it is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary immortals. Even the ghosts and gods dispatched by the imp's Hercules rune may not be able to compete with the Dune Giants.

What the hell is that blocking the spring, and it can't move even a single bit with the power of the entire clan of the Dune Giants?

I looked at Cang Huan's face, it is not difficult to see that he is also very curious about what the old man said, if what the old man said is true, then that thing is not only as heavy as Mount Tai, it is comparable to a continent!

"Just listening to Sha Lao's description, I don't have a good idea for a while, why don't Sha Lao take us to see?"

The old man nodded, turned around and took me and Canghuan to the spring, don't look at him walking on crutches, looking like he was trembling and about to fall, this time I walked, I actually couldn't keep up with his foot strength!

At my almost trotting speed, it wasn't long before we came to the spring, and I stood on tiptoe to see that there was indeed something pressing on the top of the spring, and when I looked closely, it was a long strip of crystal, and it was a coffin!

Getting closer, I couldn't help but stare at the crystal coffin with curiosity, only to see that it was crystal clear, carved with complex patterns, looking exquisite, it should be a coffin that a noble person can afford, maybe this is used for a certain power.

"It's this coffin-shaped thing that blocks the spring, it's so heavy that I can't move it even a single bit of the wrestlers I muster!"

The old man pointed to the crystal coffin with his cane, and his tone was mixed with resentment and helplessness.
