Chapter 233: Exploring the Sand Clan
Zhao Zong pulled Likun to walk together, while looking at the surrounding environment, he whispered: "Now I finally understand why you don't want us to come to the Sand Clan, now we are grasshoppers on a rope, and if there is anything in the future, we must say it directly, we in the province seem so passive~!" While speaking, Zhao Zong's hand seemed to be unintentional at Likun's shoulder, and patted it gently, and a black insect the size of a grain of rice fell out of Zhao Zong's cuffs and burrowed into Likun's clothes.
At this time, the camels that everyone was riding had been handed over to the guards of the Sand Tribe, and they all walked on foot.
Tianxing held Shui Lu while looking at the appearance of the surrounding Sand Clan. These people looked like normal people, mostly dressed in robes woven of white silk cloth and with white turbans wrapped around their heads.
Out of caution, Tianxing didn't talk to anyone else, he kept paying attention to the appearance of the strange buildings around him, and secretly remembered the route he had taken, until Zhao Zong, Yue Ying and several of the surrounding Sand people chatted without a word.
The sand city is surrounded by an endless desert,
The houses built within the Sha tribe are very different from the buildings seen by everyone in the past, most of them are living in tents, the surrounding city walls are all made of sand and stone, and there is also a pillar around the city wall that cannot see the material to stand up, the height is about three or four zhang, presumably the formation formed by these pillars should be the main reason for the barrier formed by the wind and sand outside.
Under the leadership of the Sand people, after a period of twists and turns, everyone quickly arrived in front of a larger tent, obviously this tent was used as a temporary residence for Tianxing and others, Zhao Zong and Yue Ying thanked those Sand people, and everyone walked into the tent.
The inside of this tent is quite spacious, boxy and very regular. In the center of the tent is a simple brown wooden table, surrounded by several chairs, in the middle of which are placed a teapot and a circle of teacups, and a blue curtain hangs from one side of the tent, which divides the tent into two rooms of different sizes.
Tianxing helped Shui Lu to the bed in the inner room to rest, "You rest first, I'll go to something to help you recover your spiritual power." With that, he stepped back and walked out.
When he came to the outside to show his eyes to Yue Ying, Yue Ying immediately turned around and came to the door, pretending to be watching the tent, taking in everything around, and then quickly entered the tent and whispered: "Young master, there is no one outside, please tell me something." ”
Tianxing nodded and said, "We still have important things to do, so we can't delay here for too long." After speaking, he glanced at Likun, saw that he wanted to speak and stopped, and then said: "So we must deal with the matter here as soon as possible, Yue Ying, you follow Zhao Zong out to inquire about the poisoning of the Sand people this time, this city is not big, I just observed the surroundings, according to the tents and houses where I live, I estimate that there should only be two or three hundred people here, and it should be enough for half a day to inquire about some news, Likun, you are most familiar with this place, please help fetch a few buckets of water, Shuilu girl urgently needs water to restore her spiritual power." ”
Hearing this, Li Kun nodded, put the young child in his arms on the bed beside him, and turned around and walked out of the house. Yue Ying and Zhao Zongyi hugged their fists and wanted to go outside.
In the following time, Tianxing borrowed a large bath bucket and slowly sat down in the bucket with Shui Lu, and then Li Kun carried two buckets of clear and transparent water from the outside, walked into the house and poured water into the bath bucket with Tianxing.
"It's not enough, please bring a few more buckets of water. Tianxing glanced at the amount of water in the tub and urged Likun.
Li Kun nodded and turned around and went out, and after Li Kun went out, Tianxing lowered his body and whispered in Shui Lu's ear: "There are people here who have been poisoned, and the cause has not been found for a while, and there may be a problem with the water source, so when you absorb the water spiritual power here, you must be extremely careful, and then transfer it to your body after checking that it is correct." ”
Shui Lu sat in the bucket with his eyes closed at this time, constantly absorbing the moisture in the water little by little from the water, and after hearing what Tianxing said, he nodded: "Return, don't worry, I will be cautious, it is estimated that tomorrow morning, I will be able to recover the spiritual power in my body." ”
Tianxing nodded, and when Likun came back again, he poured the water into the bath bucket again until the water was full, and then retreated to the outer tent with Likun, leaving Shuilu alone to repair.
Tianxing pulled Likun to the table, picked up the teapot and wanted to pour a cup for Likun, Likun waved his hand: "You're welcome, I already drank it when I fetched water just now~!" Tianxing smiled, it doesn't hurt to drink some more, after walking such a long way, and being busy for a long time, you must also be thirsty, Likun shook his head helplessly, he knew in his heart that Tianxing still had doubts about it, so he picked up the teacup and drank all the water in the cup, and then put it on the table to look at Tianxing.
After Tianxing saw that Li Kun drank the water in the cup without any abnormality, he directly took the teapot and poured it several times, until he soaked a pot of water, then reluctantly put the kettle down, wiped the corners of his mouth, and smiled awkwardly. "Brother Li, don't blame me for being too careful, this time you came to the Sand Clan, and you also hid a lot from us, so I will be cautious now. ”
Li Kun nodded without the slightest weirdness, "It's true that I was at fault and hid a lot of the truth from you, but I have no choice but to do it, and you don't mind it." ”
Tianxing was stunned when he heard Li Kun call himself 'Young Master', and then he was relieved to understand what was going on, this has been going all the way since he met Li Kun, because he has been worried about Shui Lu's safety, and he has not informed Li Kun of his name according to the number of courtesies, it is estimated that Li Kun also heard Yue Ying call himself 'Young Master', so he mistakenly thought that he was called 'Young Master', so he smiled and said: "In the next name is Tianxing, Brother Li still calls me by my name, don't call the Young Master again, that is my friend Yue Ying made fun of the nickname I shouted." ”
"Oh, I see, then I'll call you Tianxing~!Whether the child can recover this time, I have to bother you more~!" Li Kun glanced at his son and said.
"Yes~, this is naturally my business, but before I am cured, Brother Kun can tell me the whole story, otherwise it will be difficult for me to figure out the cause of these symptoms alone, how can I be cured?"
Li Kun thought for a while and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you straight to Tianxing." You've also said before that you know some stories about the Ghost Clan, and our Sand Clan is actually the descendants of the Ghost Clan. ”
"What~!" Tianxing was shocked when he heard this, and immediately stood up from his chair, "The ghost moth clan is brutal by nature, burning, killing and robbing, and doing all kinds of evil, you are actually their descendants~!".
"Shh~" Li Kun put his finger to his lips, motioned to Tianxing to lower his voice, and whispered: "This is the secret of our Sand Clan, so outsiders are absolutely unknowable, the reason why I tell you is also to find out what happened, as far as my children and those clansmen are concerned, wash away the grievances for me, and please don't make a fuss." ”
After seeing that Tianxing calmed down, Li Kun looked around and cautiously created a small barrier, wrapping himself and Tianxing, but he still had palpitations and whispered: "Human nature does not distinguish between good and evil, and only with the separation of hearts can there be good and evil. In the past, the ancestors of our clan also had differences because of the evil things they did, and then most of the evil people were buried deep in the ground, but there were still a few people who survived, and the ancestors of the past did many hateful things, but now we have truly repented, otherwise the gods would not have let us live until now. ”
Tianxing nodded and motioned for Li Kun to continue.
"The past has passed, we don't want to mention it again, so we listed the ruins of the past ghost clan as a forbidden place, and also changed the ghost clan to the sand clan, and constantly warned future generations to keep in mind that those who do evil things will be punished by God, so we all stick to our hearts, keep our own peace and no longer be greedy for evil thoughts, how many years, we have several generations of sand people, remember the testament, and swear to the gods that in the future, people in the clan will not be allowed to step into the forbidden land again. ”
Li Kun paused and continued: "Half a month ago, when I went out hunting with my own brother Li Yan, I was suddenly attacked by a borer, although it was not as big as what you had encountered before, but it was as vicious as a jackal hungry tiger. I was furious, regardless of my own life and death, the moth pursued all the way, and finally killed it directly in a cave, when I left a bone for my brother's tomb, I dragged the moth out of the cave, and when I walked out of the cave only to find that I had accidentally bumped into the forbidden land, along the way I returned to the clan with trepidation, and finally dissected the bones to build a tomb for my brother. ”
"Hey~!" Li Kun sighed softly and continued.
"I thought that the incident would end there, guessing that the gods thought that I was eager to avenge my brother, and I would enter the forbidden land by mistake, and I would not blame me, who would have thought that since that incident happened half a month later, there were people in the clan who were inexplicably sick and unconscious, and the patriarch was angry, and ordered someone to carefully find out the reason, but it was still fruitless, I had a bad conscience in my heart, and it was estimated that this matter must be related to me, so I surrendered to the patriarch, explained the matter, asked the patriarch for forgiveness, and volunteered to go to the capital of the country, and found a person with advanced spiritual skills to drive away the disease and eliminate disasters for my clan, who knew that the patriarch heard that I entered the forbidden land, and expelled me from the sand clan in a fit of angerand assign someone to find someone to save people. ”
Li Kun glanced at his son and continued: "In the end, bad luck also landed on my head, and my son also fell ill in bed, and in desperation, I had to go to the land of earth alone for help, and this is how it happened, and now those who are looking for people with strange abilities have not heard back for a long time, and most of them must have died in the mouth of the moth~! As long as you heal their poison and show that it is not a punishment from the gods, I will be able to return to the Sand Clan, I grew up here, and I can't leave here. Likun knelt on one knee and pleaded sincerely to Tianxing.
"Okay~!If it's really as you said, I'll help you~!" Tianxing said thoughtfully after listening to what Li Kun said.
This matter is full of mysteries, and he can only slowly think about how to solve it. Then he leaned back in his chair and slowly closed his eyes, exhausted from days of walking in the desert.
Seeing that Tianxing was tired, Li Kun didn't disturb Tianxing anymore, quietly removed the barrier and turned around to coax the child to sleep......
