Chapter 2 Xiao Chen was rescued
"Is there a mistake?" Xiao Chen was depressed and wanted to cry. It's clearly a decomposing corpse...
"Forget it, something is better than nothing. Xiao Chen could only clean up the dirty things, rub the clothes with sand, and over and over again, before he could barely put on the clothes.
"It seems to be an ancient garment. Xiao Chen lowered his head, looked at his tightly wrapped and nondescript body, and smiled.
Time passed quickly. When Xiao Chen woke up, it was close to noon, and it was already evening.
Xiao Chen walked slowly on the yellow sand. He leaned forward, as if he was going to fall down at any moment.
Another gust of hot wind blew through the sand. Xiao Chen suddenly felt dizzy, he stopped, his body shook for a while, and then fell to the ground.
"Ding ......" In the distance, there was a crisp sound of bells. In this windy desert, it is particularly abrupt.
"Uncle Zhang, how far are we from Mangmo City?" A little girl dressed in red, who looked no more than seventeen or eighteen years old. She rode an animal that resembled a camel, walked ahead of the caravan, and said with a smile to a middle-aged man beside her.
"There should be more than fifty miles left, soon. Uncle Zhang replied.
The girl exhaled, scratched her head, and swept her gaze casually across the desert.
"Huh?" she frowned, slowly raising her finger to the side.
"Uncle Zhang, look, what's that black dot over there?"
Uncle Zhang also looked over there, and he squinted and observed.
"It was like a person. ”
"People?" the girl's eyes widened.
"Hmm. He must have passed out there. ”
"Ahh She obviously couldn't bear to save her.
"Miss, I'm afraid this is not good. ”
"Hmph, will you save it or not?" the girl pouted and looked at Uncle Zhang dissatisfied.
Uncle Zhang hesitated for a while before agreeing.
"Well, I can't stare at you. ”
"Qingmu, Qingke, you two go over there to have a look, and if the person over there is not dead, bring it over. Uncle Zhang turned around and named out the two from the line behind.
"Yes. Kiyoki and Kiyoke answered and walked over. The whole team slowed down.
"Qingqing, this mission is very important. There's a reason why the head of the house won't let you play with you. It's just that you ran over halfway, or I'd send you back. Uncle Zhang looked at the girl and said worriedly: "I hope that this time I can complete the task safely and successfully." ”
"Don't worry, it's just to save someone, I won't make a fuss. The girl grinned.
Qingmu and Qingke slowly walked towards Xiao Chen.
"Not dead. Qingmu stretched out his hand and probed Xiao Chen's snort.
"Then take it back. Qing Ke said lightly, turned his head and left.
Qingmu picked Xiao Chen up on his back, looked at Qing Ke's back in front of him, and a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.
"Qingke, you love to pretend to be an uncle, don't you? Hmph, your good days are coming to an end, and when the time comes, I want you to pretend to be a grandson in front of Lao Tzu!"
...
In the swaying carriage, Xiao Chen gradually woke up.
"Where is this?" Xiao Chen moved his body with difficulty.
"Why do you change places once you faint? It's not a dream, is it?" he rubbed his eyes.
"Xiaohong, how is he?" A female voice came from outside, speaking Mandarin, but the accent was a little strange, unlike any dialect Xiao Chen had heard.
"Miss, he should be waking up soon. ”
"Oh. ”
The curtain of the carriage slowly opened, and a beautiful girl entered. Her skin is a healthy wheat color, and the clothes she wears are also ancient costumes!
"I've traveled to ancient times?" Xiao Chen's mind popped up involuntarily with this thought.
"You're awake!"
The girl's joyful voice was as beautiful as a silver bell.
He nodded stunned and let out a "hmm".
The girl's eyes widened and she looked at him curiously.
"Are you from Mangmo City?" the girl asked.
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Why did you faint there? Why didn't you bring water?"
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Then you..."
No matter what the girl asked, Xiao Chen shook his head and didn't say a word.
Finally, after tossing for a long time, the girl learned that Xiao Chen's name was 'Chen', and she was a tribe living in an isolated oasis in the desert. Of course, these are just Xiao Chen's casual nonsense.
"What's your name?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Gu Qing. The girl blinked. "Why are you here alone? Are you lost?"
"Yes. Xiao Chen nodded. "My house used to have a big well with a lot of water. But there was no water six months ago! The other wells in the village were gone!"
"The patriarch took us to find water, and I got lost and lost. Xiao Chen had a trace of sadness on his face.
Gu Qing nodded. In this desert, the water sources dry up and the oases disappear, which is a common thing. She seemed to think of something again, and asked, "Won't your powerful martial artists go looking for it?" Some powerful martial artists don't eat for a month or drink water for a week. With them, you should be able to move somewhere else soon?"
"Martial artist?" Xiao Chen made a very exaggerated expression of surprise. "What is a warrior?"
"Huh?" Gu Qing's mouth opened wide, she looked at Xiao Chen, and said incredulously: "You don't know martial artists?"
"I don't know. Being looked at by Gu Qing like this, Xiao Chen smiled shyly.
Seeing him like this, Gu Qing could only sigh helplessly. It seems that the tribe where Xiao Chen is located is the tribe left over from the legendary ancient era, and it is so backward that it doesn't even know what a warrior is.
The only difference between antiquity and the present day is that there are now warriors. The history of martial artists can be traced back to 6,000 years ago when the two great venerables of Tianyu and Tianchang discovered the 'power of action' and taught the world exercises.
Gu Qing had no choice but to slowly tell him some common sense:
"There is a special way in which humans can acquire 'qi'. These methods of attaining 'qi' are called exercises. The earliest exercises were created by the two great deities of Tianyu and Tianchang. ”
"Those 'qi' are called 'power of action'. The power of action is in the meridians, and the cycle is endless. Those who possess the power to do are called 'warriors'. ”
Xiao Chen listened very carefully.
"Weak warriors can fly thousands of catties at will. Those most powerful martial artists, moving mountains and reclaiming the sea are just a matter of turning their hands. According to the strength of the power of action, the warriors are divided into five realms: the Origin Martial Realm, the True Martial Realm, the Xuanwu Realm, the Heavenly Martial Realm, and the Extreme Martial Realm. ”
"My dad is the Tianwu Realm, very powerful!" Gu Qing had a hint of pride in his eyes.
"Ahem, ahem," there was a coughing sound outside.
Gu Qing was silent for a while, she knew that it was Uncle Zhang reminding her. She said too much.
And Xiao Chen had fallen into a petrified state at this time. Aren't these similar to the fantasy novels I used to read?
Xiao Chen understands that he has either met a madman or traveled to an unknown world!
If that's the case, then how do you get back?
"How big is this world?" Xiao Chen asked urgently.
"Oh, to the south of this land we live in, is a vast ocean, which we call the South China Sea. ”
"This land is divided into five domains, namely the desert region where we are now, the southern region bordering the South China Sea, the snowy region in the northeast, the original region in the southeast, and the wasteland in the west. ”
"Among them, the number of original regions is the most prosperous, followed by the southern regions, and then the snow regions. This most barren place is the wasteland, and at least there are caravans passing through the desert region. Gu Qing sighed.
"Which domain is the biggest?"
"You just have to reverse the level of prosperity. ”
"Huh, such a coincidence?" Xiao Chen's expression was strange.
Gu Qing didn't look at Xiao Chen's expression, but smiled, and said to herself: "Because of the geographical proportion. The strength of each domain is still very even. ”
"Then if you travel thousands of miles a day, how long will it take to get from here to the original domain?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Hehe, haha... Ha..."Gu Qing suddenly laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Chen felt that he had said the wrong thing.
"You mean, from here to the original domain?" Gu Qing finally held back a smile.
"Hmm. ”
Although Gu Qing stopped laughing with a serious expression, there was still a hint of a smile in her eyes.
"At least a year!"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"One, a year?"
"Hmm. Gu Qing affirmed. "Also, this is also unrealistic, because the speed of traveling thousands of miles a day means that you are still only in the True Martial Realm. At such a long distance, you have to cross the border area of the two domains, and without the cultivation of the Xuanwu Realm, it is a dead end!"
At this time, Xiao Chen had already been shocked by that 'year'.
A thousand miles a day is 500 kilometers in 24 hours. There are 360 days in a year, which is 182,500 kilometers, which is nearly 10 times the diameter of the earth!
It is estimated that if you get the earth and throw it into the South China Sea of this world, it will directly become an island!
Is this planet a little bigger, isn't it? Or is it not a planet at all?
For a while, Xiao Chen and Gu Qing's eyes were a little strange.
"Hey!" Gu Qing called softly, but Xiao Chen didn't react.
"Dust!" Gu Qing's voice increased.
"Ahh
"You, why did you look at me like that just now?" Gu Qing's face flushed.
"Is there one?" Xiao Chen looked puzzled.
Gu Qing touched her nose in embarrassment and said, "No, it's nothing." ”
"Qingqing, is he awake?" Uncle Zhang's voice came from outside the carriage at the right time.
"Oh, he's awake. Uncle Zhang, come in. Gu Qing hurriedly shouted.
The curtain was lifted, and a middle-aged man entered. He raised his head slightly and glanced at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen's scalp suddenly exploded, and his heartbeat accelerated involuntarily.
The middle-aged man gave him a very dangerous feeling.
"Maybe this 'Uncle Zhang' is a powerful martial artist, right?" Xiao Chen secretly guessed in his heart.
"Qingqing, go outside and breathe. I want to talk to this little brother. Uncle Zhang said lightly.
