Princess Goya's Desert Adventure
In the seventh year, the birth month, in the city of Shuofang, further north is the desert area of the Ganges land.
There are two great empires in the land of the Ganges, and the land that controls the Ganges region and is rich in water and grass is the Guran Empire.
Dominating the desert barren land, where there is no water, is the Ottoid Empire.
From the largest continental plate of the Blue Planet, from south to north, it is the land of Shenzhou, the land of the Ganges, and the land of Europe.
The distribution of empires is the Tang Empire, the Gulan Empire, the Oss Empire, and the Romer Empire before the division of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms in the land of Shenzhou.
The Austic Empire was somewhere between the Romans and the Qur'ans, and due to the Otto's lack of resources, it often waged raids against the Romans, which were weaker than the GΓΌrans......
Goya was one of the princesses of the Guran Empire, the Mauryan Empress, and began traveling at the age of eleven as a way for the Quran to train the Empire's successors.
So this year, Goya is seventeen years old and has been traveling abroad for six years. The portrait of Princess Goya was kept secret as a royal secret in the Qur'an Empire.
However, this year, her picture was secretly sent out of the palace of the Gulan Empire by someone with a heart.
As a result, when Princess Goya traveled to the desert lands of the Ottoid Empire, she was repeatedly pursued by bounty hunters.
After smashing the bounty hunters again and again, Goya used her unique flying skills and courage to fight death to rampage through the desert of the Ostonian Empire, destroying the bandits' camps everywhere.
The seventh year, the first day of the birth month, was the third month of her escape from the desert land of the Ottoid Empire.
The yellow sand is like the sea, and the scorching sun scorches the continuous sand dunes, like huge waves tumbling to the sky, and some people are struggling to climb to the top of the waves.
In the middle of the night, the sudden arrival of horse bandits woke her from her dream.
A group of horse bandits was chasing a caravan, and after a lot of looting and fighting, only an old man and a child were left in the caravan.
The old man climbed to the top of the sand dune, stopped, and the child staggered, and the sheepskin water bladder in his arms rolled down the sand slope.
There was a sparse view ahead, and several black sandstorms covered the sky, like writhing snakes, and once they got close, the deadly vortex in the sea of sand was enough to tear them apart.
The sound of whipping was heard not far behind them, and the footprints they left behind were quickly trampled by the horses' hooves.
The old man gritted his teeth and took a small step towards the black sandstorm, and at this moment, more than a dozen black shadows flashed from among the sand and dust flying in the sky, like a group of sharks smelling the smell of prey, quickly gathering.
The old man bent down and hugged the child tightly, and let out a desperate howl: "It's the horse bandits!" Another gang of horse bandits......"
The child's eyes were wide open, full of fear and horror.
The group looked at an old man and a young man, took out a portrait and said, "We are not horse bandits, we are bounty hunters, have you seen this woman?" β
The old man looked at the portrait from a distance, looked at each other for a while, and shook his head.
In recent years, various bandits have sprung up, cutting off the financial routes of many horse bandits, and many business travelers have been robbed and have rarely taken this route, so some horse bandit gangs have transformed into bounty hunters.
And the group of bounty hunters in front of the old man was obviously transformed from horse bandits.
The group of bounty hunters glanced past the old man, and the leader said, "This old man is worthless, but the child can exchange a few dollars." β
After the leader finished speaking, several of his men tied the children beside the old man to the horseback, and a group of bounty hunters left.
Alone, the old man wailed helplessly above the dunes, the child was his grandson.
In the seventh year, on the dusk of the first day of the birth month, Princess Goya disguised herself as a young man and appeared in front of the old man, she looked at the old man's face, which looked very much like one of her old friends, who had disappeared for no reason in the Dunhuang Grottoes in the land of China seven years ago.
So, Princess Goya asked the old man's name, and the old man said that his name was "Sanjay".
Immediately afterwards, Princess Goya asked the old man, "Who are you Sang Qi?" β
The old man told her that Sang Qi was his own brother, and since he went to the Gulan Empire more than ten years ago to run errands for the Peacock Empress, he had cut off contact with the brothers.
Later, Princess Goya told Sanjay that she could help him get his grandson back.
An old man and a young man pursued for dozens of miles until late at night, when they saw a bonfire flickering across a small hill.
Princess Goya took the lead in jumping uphill, and after the old man Sanjay rode up to the top of the slope, his face turned pale when he saw the situation downhill.
Down the slope, a dozen big men sitting in a big bowl of wine and eating meat, all with gloomy faces, after seeing Princess Goya, it was like seeing a big fat sheep, and his eyes were full of golden gold, and then he looked at the old man, with a look of disdain.
It was really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and suddenly the princess Goya, who they were looking for, appeared in front of them, and if they didn't do it, they would be punished by God.
The old man Sanjay looked at Princess Goya in a daze, this gentleman is a young child, is he really capable, or is he a stunned person who doesn't know the height of the sky?
Princess Goya stared intently at the bottom of the slope, snorted coldly, and said, "Return the child you took away in the afternoon to this old man." β
Immediately afterwards, the old man Sanjay saw the young man take out a terrifying mask from his arms, cover his face, examine the crossbow on his wrist for a moment, and then, drawing his knife, inserting the scabbard into the soil.
A series of silent movements made Princess Goya's whole person change her temperament in an instant.
Old man Sanjay covered his mouth and didn't dare to make a sound.
It is a good time to kill, and on days with long yellow sand, the corpse will soon be covered with sand and soil, and it will not be easy to detect. Killing people for Tianxingdao here makes Princess Goya, who is quick and fast, very pleased.
The leader made a look, and let the two powerful but not so confidant horse bandits be the vanguard, they were naturally reluctant, looking at the hillside, after the young man put on the terrifying mask, he had a hideous aura, and he felt faintly bad in his heart.
The leader spoke, "Just take down the masked boy, and they will share the liunty they get." β
This made the two horse bandits who were lost in money can't even care about their lives, it is a dead end, the two horse bandits are hot-headed, they can't take care of much, pull out the machete on their bodies, and rush up the hillside.
In an instant, Princess Goya swooped down from a high place, the long knife collided with the machete in the hands of the charging horse bandit, Princess Goya slipped sideways with the sticky knife, cut off several fingers of the charging horse bandit, and without waiting for the man to cry for his father and mother, he picked off a head.
Princess Goya's feet did not stop, and the long knife rolled again, killing the second horse bandit.
Princess Goya rushed straight into battle. The long knife surged like a snowball. After four or five dials and one killing, the killing was easy, and after only one pillar of incense, several horse bandits had already fallen to the ground and died.
The leader saw that the situation was not good, so he wanted to turn around and run away, Princess Goya aimed at the direction of the leader's escape, raised her wrist, the crossbow on her wrist, the arrow broke through the air, and the crossbow arrow was shot at the leader's back, and the leader fell to the ground in response, and died of exhaustion.
After Princess Goya looked around at the corpses of the horse bandits, she finally exhaled a long breath, and the so-called "one blow" was very reasonable.
The use of knives is the most taboo, and she began to understand a little, Princess Goya felt that killing people should be attentive, and they should be decisive and ruthless.
Princess Goya took off the terrifying mask covering her face, changed her gas again, and returned to the appearance of a young man, only to see her shake her wrist lightly, throw the blood beads on the long knife on the yellow sand, hold the stunned child on the side, and carry the knife uphill.
The old man sitting on horseback trembled, gritted his teeth and insisted, as if he refused to lose the demeanor of the old man.
Princess Goya glanced at the old man, handed him the child she was holding, and said, "Your grandson, give it back to you, take care of him." β
The child who returned to his grandfather's arms finally mustered up the courage to say, "Big sister, can I learn a crossbow from you?" β
The old man nervously grabbed the child, his mouth opened and closed, and finally he could only stare silently at the back of Princess Goya, who had turned around, with pleading eyes.
"Let's walk home with your grandfather." At this time, Princess Goya did not look back, and replied.
After leaving her horse to the old man and the little boy, she took up her own fighting spirit, and in an instant she took off into the air.
"There are some roads that once you set foot on them, you can never turn back." The words that followed, as Princess Goya flew into the distance, were drowned in the boundless wind and sand.
After Princess Goya had flown out for some distance, under the full moon of the desert, when she looked back at the old man Sanjay and the child, they had already disappeared from her vision on two horses.
So, at this moment, she missed her teacher, Sanjay's younger brother, Teacher Sang Qi.
Seven years ago, when she was only nine years old, the Peacock Empress, her mother, hired a teacher for her to teach her swordsmanship.
When she first met Teacher Sang Qi, she was required to sweep the knife 3,000 times a day.
Teacher Sang Qi thought that this little princess who was used to eating Zhong Mingding would at least ask a few whys, but Princess Goya didn't, she just got up at dawn every day to start practicing knives, and staggered back to sleep late at night every day.
This made Mr. Sang Qi very depressed, and at the same time curious, the nine-year-old Princess Goya showed not only her will, but also her pretty solid knife skills, could it be that this little princess was born to be a genius in knife practice?
During this time, he deliberately made it difficult to let Princess Goya practice the boring knife grip, half of which was to test the little princess's heart, so that she knew that there was no half-step shortcut to the knife technique in the world.
The other half is to let it sink down, practice the knife first to learn to hold the knife, even the knife is not good, even if there are exquisite moves, it is just a good-looking fancy posture, once the enemy, there is only a dead end.
At the beginning, the practice of knives happened to be the great heat, and after the great heat, it was the beginning of autumn.
Princess Goya has always been the same every day, wearing a small vest to practice knives, more than 3,000 times a day, her silky skin is tanned, and the little girl is full of boy's strength.
But Princess Goya's knife technique is far from being in the stream. The white dew, autumn equinox, and cold dew are followed by frost.
Three thousand swords became four thousand, and four thousand became six thousand.
Princess Goya finally opened her mouth to Teacher Sang Qi and asked the first question: "The knife is the king of a hundred soldiers, open and close, although thousands of troops and horses are going to do it, but the method of 'grabbing the knife' in this practice is the method of collecting the knife, why do you want to practice it for so long?" β
Teacher Sang Qi said with a smile: "There are too many swordsmen in the world who are not afraid of death, but the swordsmen who are not afraid of death are the easiest to die, and the most powerful swordsmanship in the world cannot escape the word 'plunder'." Whoever is right, the knife takes people's lives. Learn to retract the knife faster in order to produce the knife better. Little girl, learn more. β
Practicing the knife on the way, after the beginning of winter, until the cold, even if the lake is frozen, Princess Goya will be taken into the lake by Teacher Sang Qi to practice the knife, the longer the rest time, the more powerful the knife will be.
And the nine-year-old Princess Goya has never complained about this, and Teacher Sang Qi is very pleased with this.
"If you're going to grow fast...... Motivate yourself by scolding you as if others were complimenting you...... Treat others praising you as scolding you to restrain yourself ....... β
The words that Teacher Sang Qi taught her, she still vividly hears them, just like all these days with Teacher Sang Qi, as if it was just yesterday.
At the beginning of his ten-year-old, that is, seven years ago, Mr. Sang Qi went to the Dunhuang Grottoes in the land of China, and he has not been heard from since.
Teacher Sang Qi's disappearance for no reason has been the biggest doubt that has haunted Princess Goya's heart for seven years.
