Chapter 15: The Eight Words Don't Match
In the Phantom Sea Cliff Desert, at this time, a group of young men and women, numbering about six or seven, were walking the endless desert.
"Sister, why haven't you gone out yet, we've been walking for more than half a month, right?" The only thing that can help time in the desert is the dividing line between night and day, and the only thing that can help you find your way in the desert is the only huge heat on your head.
"Sister, did you say that it is possible that we are going in the wrong direction, didn't you say that it is only tens of thousands of kilometers, according to our speed, we should have passed it a long time ago," Qin Ruonan whispered in front of his sister, and at the same time leaned close to Qin Yan's ear, "And I always feel that we are going in circles, didn't my sister feel it?"
When people walk in the desert, they can't see negative emotions the most, and now this examination team composed of the children of the Heavenly Spirit God-level forces is experiencing its torment.
"Ruonan, don't talk nonsense, believe Brother Yuru, he will definitely have a way to take us out of this desert," Qin Yan's eyes couldn't help but sweep towards Ding Yuru in the lead, firmly believing in her heart that following Ding Yuru's pace, she would definitely arrive at her destination on time, because along the way, she saw how Ding Yuru persuaded the small team that was about to fall apart to reunite, and how Ding Yuru coped with all kinds of hardships and hardships since entering the desert.
"Oh~" Qin Ruonan's mood is not high, he always feels that his sister has changed a little recently, where else does this have the appearance of the very assertive Qin family lady before, but if you think about it carefully, I just can't figure out what the reason is, after all, Qin Ruonan is about to be thirteen years old, and there are still four or five months before his next birthday.
"Don't worry, you still have a sister, with my sister here, we can't get lost", Qin Ruonan only remembered at this time that her sister is a saint of nature, she has been close to nature since she was born, no matter when and where she is, she will be guided by natural things, and she will never lose her way. But now I am in the desert, and there is still the slightest sign of life everywhere I look.
Qin Ruonan didn't say anything more, but nodded heavily, but his mood was still not high, and he didn't dispel his doubts just by relying on a few words from his sister, he was still so low.
"Yanyan, Ruonan, don't worry, hold on for a few more days, and we will be able to step out of this desert in no time", Ding Yuru held an old parchment map in his hand, with some lines drawn in a zigzag mess, "We have walked more than half of the distance now, don't worry, I have always mastered the direction!"
As she spoke, she smiled at Qin Yan, the clean and handsome face, the white hairpin that stood stubbornly under the desert wind and sand, and the deep dimples when she laughed, Qin Yan was drunk without alcohol, drunk in the winter sun.
"Brother Yuru, we believe in you, don't worry", relieved her mind, Qin Yan smiled shyly, lowered her head and responded.
"En", Ding Yuru didn't say anything more, and she had already felt Qin Yan's feelings for herself in her heart, but the girl was thin-skinned, and so many people were present, so she was not in a hurry to say anything at this time.
"Zhonggu, Xiaoyin, Guyou, let's stop and rest, hard work everyone~" Ding Yuru, no matter how bad the environment is, always maintains a clean and confident appearance, and Gongsun Zhonggu who watched it had to admire this peer in his heart.
"This person was born in a prosperous era, and he dare not assert it; this person was born in a troubled era, and he must be a hero!" This sentence was once heard by Gongsun Zhonggu in the mouth of the family grandmother, and this sentence was Ding Yuru at that time, and Ding Yuru was only a seven or eight-year-old boy at that time.
"Grandma's induction has never gone wrong in her life, and it seems that Ding Yuru must be extraordinary in this life. Gongsun Zhonggu objectively praised Ding Yuru in his heart, but he still did not relax his guard, "This person was born in troubled times, he must be a traitor, right?!"
According to Ding Yuru's arrangement, everyone put down Dong Lingdong's stretcher and sat in a circle, in Ding Yuru's words, this can prevent the gale from blowing Dong Lingdong out of typhoid fever in weakness, you must know that if this situation occurs in the desert, either leave him behind, or everyone accompany him to wait for the choice of providence.
Wei Yin and Xing Guyou were already so tired that they couldn't stand up, although they were all Xuan-level cultivators, but relatively speaking, the physical fitness of these two people was still relatively poor, plus the torture of the Devil's Desert in the past half a month, no matter how good the nerves and physique were, people couldn't bear it. At this time, hearing Ding Yuru's resting words, he hurriedly left the weight on his body, and slapped his whole body on the sand, thinking that he would never be able to lie down like this, "I'm too tired." ”
Qin Yan pulled her sister to sit on a small sand dune on the side, opened the package and took some food, and saw Ding Yuru walking in her direction, so she sent her sister to distribute the food and water.
"Oh, Brother Yuru, I've been lucky all the way, let's eat something and rest and rest", Qin Yan broke a sweet potato in her hand in half, and handed half of the bright hair oil to Ding Yuru.
"Thank you Yanyan," Ding Yuru was not polite, the moment he took the thing, he deliberately crossed the jade fingers like green onions as if unintentionally, and Qin Yan quickly withdrew her hand, and couldn't help lowering her head, her pink cheeks flushed.
Ding Yuru acted as if nothing had happened, took two steps and sat down beside Qin Yan, his slender and dexterous hands slowly peeling off the thin sweet potato skin, concentrating as if he was about to be baked a work of art.
"Yanyan, do you know how to eat the best sweet potato?" Ding Yuru's ability to find topics is really not small, and a light sentence resolved Qin Yan's embarrassment at this time.
Qin Yan didn't answer, but raised her head and looked at the people around her quietly, waiting for the following, her long eyelashes and big eyes, and her fluttering agility was abnormal.
"Actually, this thing is delicious no matter how you eat it", Ding Yuru smiled, "Of course, it depends on the individual, some people like it, so no matter what method or means are used to make it, it is delicious." ”
Her eyes stared at Qin Yan without blinking, "It's like a fairy, as long as you like it, no matter how lucky the pursuit process is, the result will be happiness." ”
Qin Yan obviously understood the meaning of these words, and just wanted to avoid it, but Ding Yuru didn't give her this opportunity, and pulled the fairy's white soft water tightly in her hand, "Yanyan, I have liked you since I was a child, and I have paid attention to you silently, in order to follow you, I rejected all temptations, and accompanied you thousands of miles to study in various countries." Several of my brothers used to laugh at me, saying that I was stupid to live for a woman. But I didn't pay attention to it at all, what could I do if I was stupid, they didn't understand me. It doesn't matter, because I just want you to know me in the whole world. Yeonyan ......"
Ding Yuru wanted to continue, but at this time, Qin Yan's performance was very different from what he imagined.
"Ahhhh
But said that just now, Qin Yan had never had a boy confess to herself in front of her since she was a child, and she instinctively dodged backwards at a loss, but when one hand was grabbed by Ding Yuru, she got up and sat back on the sand dune, and suddenly felt like she had touched something, softly and softly. In this endless yellow sand, an unknown object was suddenly touched, Qin Yan was so frightened that she closed her eyes and screamed silently on the spot, but she forgot that her first reaction at this time was to pick up the sword in her hand and face the target first.
But fortunately, Qin Yan is a weak woman, and she doesn't have enough experience to make such a quick move. Ding Yuru also reacted at this time, and quickly pulled Qin Yan down behind him, and at the same time, the partners who heard the sound also quickly got up, and the sound of the sword coming out of the sheath came at the same time.
Qin Yan, who hid behind Ding Yuru, had the courage to open her eyes and see what it was through her fingers.
"It's a person!" Ding Yuru was the first to see the object in front of him, a little boy of little age who was not much different from himself was buried deep in the yellow sand, and only a feminine and handsome face was exposed.
Returning the sword into the sheath, Ding Yuru walked over slowly, of course, it was not without a little vigilance, and the other hand didn't know where to pull out his folding fan again. You must know that this thing is not just for pretending to be cool, Qin Ruonan has seen Ding Yuru launch several kinds of secret weapons from the fan bone, which can be said to be nameless, it is actually a necessary prop for home travel, the rivers and lakes are filled with garlic, and the yin people are extinguished.
He gently snorted with a fan, but didn't react, and probed his nose with his hand, "People are still hanging!" After speaking, he turned his head to look at Qin Yan and the partners who had just come around, "Judging by his age and walking direction, it should be the same as our purpose." Let's talk about it, to save it or not to save it?"
Wei Yin originally wanted to save people, but at this time, a strange person appeared in the desert, who knows what kind of character he had, "After all, he should be full of confidence and ready to be admitted to the Divine Venerable Academy, and his strength should not be lower than how much I waited, in case it is a bad person...... My opinion is not to save, let the term be left to fend for itself!"
Xing Guyou was as silent as ever, and this matter had nothing to do with him at all.
Gongsun Zhonggu actually gave this person a face-to-face first, but unfortunately his skills were not very good, and he shook his head, "I can't see his fate, this kind of person, my opinion is to leave him to fend for himself." ”
Seeing that these individuals were too cold-blooded, Qin Ruonan jumped out, "You, so many people are afraid of him? Even if he is saved, can he still be allowed to do evil? If he is a promising young man, don't you think it's a pity to bury his bones in the yellow sand like this? So, I think it is better to save him, and then ask him specifically!"
"Ask what? Ask him if he is a villain? Ask him if he is a good young man?" Wei Yin also thought in his heart like this, he had already expressed his opinion, and whether he was saved in the end or not, it had nothing to do with him. In terms of curing diseases and saving people, the whole team can only rely on Ding Yuru.
"I think it's better to save it, saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter" Qin Yan also expressed her opinion at this time, women, no matter what time they are always soft-hearted, especially such an immortal who has just grown up, Ding Yuru's throat couldn't help but move.
"Two to two, you will always give me problems," Ding Yuru unhurriedly dug out the person in his hand from the sand dune, "Then let's save him, anyway, there are so many of us, just like Ruonan said, we can kill him if we save the wrong person, but if we save a good one, we will be friends of life and death in the future, if we happen to be admitted to the Divine Academy together, we will have a good partner." ”
Ding Yuru didn't ink after speaking, he was still as decisive as the last time he rescued Dong Lingdong, his hands kept groping and rubbing on the body of this strange boy, and he quickly ordered his new assistant Xing Guyou, "Qi Urging Pill, Shenglinglu, and more water ......."
After working for a long time, beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead, and it was done.
"Whew~" let out a long breath, Ding Yuru felt the unbearable soreness in his limbs, and directly lay down on the sand with a big character, and handed it over to Xing Guyou to take care of.
Watching his partners carry aside the stranger who had been closed off the ghost door to take care of him, and only Qin Yan and himself were left here, Ding Yuru sighed, "Even if this kid has a big life, he has been hanging for a breath and let us save him." Providence, this is the first time that a stranger has been saved with blood-stained hands like mine. ”
Qin Yan looked at Ding Yuru's eyes and didn't know how much admiration she had now, it was estimated that Ding Yuru would not react if she said the words just now, and she might have jumped directly into his not too wide arms.
"It's funny, the reason you just said was the danger he might bring us, but when I just made up my mind to save him, guess what was going on in my head?"
"Oh, don't you think the same as us?" have been walking in the desert for more than half a month and have not seen an oasis and hope, everyone is living on food storage, at this time Ding Yuru is not worried about danger, but has other ideas?
Shaking his head, Ding Yuru explained, "Or because he is handsome!"
"Huh?"
"No, no, no~ don't get me wrong," it may be that Qin Yan thought crookedly, Ding Yuru couldn't stand this strange look, "I'm a straight man, I remembered something Yu Yan once told me." ”
Qin Yan didn't interject, she sat quietly on the side, listening attentively.
When I was about to go, Yu Yan quietly pulled me aside and told me mysteriously that I would help him find a handsome boyfriend. At that time, my heart refused, she was only twelve, a year younger than Ruonan. Seeing that I didn't agree, she even threatened me that if I didn't bring back a few for her to choose from when I went home next time, I would walk around my rumors in our big families, saying that I had been guarding like a jade for so many years, but in fact, it was all false, just because I also liked men, and I was afraid that my father would know about it...... "Ding Yuru himself couldn't say it anymore, he thought of his sister, and smiled tenderly," Since I was a child, the four of us have been very fond of Yu Yan, although it was Yu Yan who threatened me when I went out, but I happened to meet one on the road, and I also remembered Yu Yan, which can be regarded as that kid and me, so I did it. ”
After speaking, she was afraid that Qin Yan would misunderstand herself, so she added a special sentence, "Of course, I'm a straight man~"
"Poof," Qin Yan was still envious of Ding Yuyan having such a brother who was good to her, but she couldn't help but be amused by Ding Yuru's current embarrassment, and laughed directly.
"Brother Yuru, it is really a blessing that your Ding family brothers and sisters can be so harmonious, and Uncle Ding will be very pleased in the spirit of heaven!"
Qin Yan's ghost envoy actually mentioned Ding Yuru's sad matter, thinking about the blood feud fifteen years ago, Ding Yuru's blood-red eyes were about to be angry, but fortunately, at this time, the cheers of other people came, and Ding Yuru, who was on the verge of anger, was brought back to reality.
Qin Yan regretted it when she said a word, staring at Ding Yuru's eyes that had no emotion at all, her hideous expression, her heart was like falling into an ice cave, and cold sweat was dripping down her back.
"Brother Yuru, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned your sadness" Qin Yan saw the anger interrupted by the voice, and turned back to Ding Yuru, who was in a normal state, and apologized.
"Yeon-yeon, I'm sorry to scare you. I'm sorry, but I still can't control my emotions and get out of that hatred. Please forgive me, I really, I really ......can't help it," Ding Yuru also felt his gaffe just now, "I hope you can forgive me." ”
The two were silent for a moment, Qin Yan remembered the cheers just now, unconsciously pulled the wet clothes behind her, and said to Ding Yuru, "Brother Yuru, I'll go over and see what they are happy about~" After speaking, he didn't wait for an answer, got up and hurriedly walked towards the crowd.
"Bang!" Ding Yuru got up and sat down, his teeth clenched and his brows furrowed, and his right hand hit the sand dunes with all his might, and the yellow sand directly submerged to his wrist.
Qin Yan didn't hear the voice behind her, but it was estimated that even if she heard it, she wouldn't look back, "That kind of fierce beast's aura just now is really scary!"
"Ruonan, what are you cheering for?" Qin Yan pretended that nothing had happened, and looked at the stranger who was surrounded by everyone as usual.
"Sister, he's awake, and this person is so interesting, there's a little pinch under him~" Qin Ruonan was as surprised as if he had discovered a new continent, "Sister, look, it's that thing!"
Qin Yan couldn't help but look in the direction her sister's finger pointed, but this look suddenly blushed and couldn't help but spit on her sister, "Ruonan, you!"
At this time, everyone in a circle looked at the Qin family sisters one by one dumbfounded, "What's the situation?!"
Qin Ruonan didn't know what was going on, looking at his sister's anger out of nothing, he stood on the spot.
On the other hand, Qin Yan thought it was her sister's prank, and wanted to scold her, but after the words came to her lips, she remembered that her sister was only thirteen years old, and she didn't know much about these things, so she hurriedly walked over, covered her eyes, and left here with her sister who hadn't reacted to what had happened.
"It's embarrassing!"
"Sister, you yelled at me~" Qin Ruonan was stunned for a while, and after being pushed by his sister for a while, he cried aggrievedly, "Woo~~~~"
Qin Yan was really dumb in her heart at this time, she couldn't say it, how could she be embarrassed to explain this kind of thing to her sister, so she had to hug Qin Ruonan while being depressed, patted her on the back, and comforted her in a low voice, "Okay, okay, Ruonan, don't be curious about this in the future, you will know what's going on when you grow up." My sister was also shocked just now, Ruonan, forgive my sister, okay~~"
This luck is really back home, first of all, the unintentional words aroused Ding Yuru's sadness, and I saw what is called the anger of renunciation, and this time I offended my sister without reacting, alas, it was all caused by this stranger, and I haven't met much yet, so I let myself lose my temper twice and carry the black pot, "It seems that I have to stay away from him in the future, the eight characters don't match, Shen Ke!"
"Hello, my name is Wen Yuhan, thank you for saving me, thank you very much!" At this time, a faint voice came, reached Qin Yan's ears, and reached the deepest part of his mind.
