Chapter 358: Anxiety-Causing Foresight
After leaving Vasha Town, the back journey is basically the same as Wen Su's previous guess, the desert water veins have really dried up and cut off, Vasha Town has a water source, although it is occupied by horse thieves, but at least there is water, to the back of the oasis town, basically the same as the situation in Vasha Town, or even more severe, one of the Turan towns is directly turned into a ghost town, deserted, only a few dried corpses are buried in the yellow sand, indicating the decline of a town.
Wen Su looked up at the dazzling sunlight, according to Xu Qingrang's words, the next road will be about a day's walk, and you will be able to reach the ancient city of Loulan. And along the way, they have encountered several mirage visions, and even sandstorms have come in waves, and the endless predicament is like the ninety-nine-eighty-one difficulties of learning scriptures from the west, which is endless.
However, all of this is nothing, what really makes Wen Su panic in the bottom of his heart is another thing......
"Xun Yi."
Wen Su rode a camel and slowly approached Xun Yi's side.
"I want you to do me a favor."
Although the tone was very ordinary, Xun Yi still heard a different solemnity from it, as if he was going to give him some important task.
"What's the busy?"
The person on the other side seemed to be very entangled, and he was silent for a long time without saying a word, even through a layer of hats, Xun Yi could sensitively perceive Wen Su's unusually worried mood.
“…… When we get to Loulan, I hope you can help me, and if you can, try not to let Xu Qing leave your sight for too long. ”
After Xun Yi took the initiative to ask, Wen Su said his intention as if he had broken the jar.
These words successfully made Xun Yi frown beautifully.
What do you mean by "try not to let Xu Qingrang out of your sight for too long"?
The request sounded as inexplicable as ever. Of course, Xun Yi is not so brainbroken as to think that Wen Su has any feelings for Xu Qingrang, if there is really anything, it would have been there a long time ago! Where is his turn? But why would she make such a request? Is it worth it for her to ask him so solemnly? Especially...... Why is it after entering Loulan?
Could it be that in the ancient city of Loulan, what will happen to them?
One question after another popped up in his mind, but Xun Yi didn't ask the reason directly.
As soon as his eyes rolled, he had a plan in his heart, so he nodded slightly and replied, "Well, I will." Is it okay to take care of Brother Qingrang more? ”
Wen Su raised his head in some surprise and looked at Xun Yi with a stunned expression. Originally, her request was very suspicious, but none of the others in the team could be trusted, Qu Qingran had to go into battle to guard it herself, but in the end, she lacked skills, and there was a difference between men and women, so she couldn't keep an eye on Xu Qingrang at all times.
Originally, a second ago, she was still typing a lot of drafts in her head, how to get Xun Yi to agree to her strange request, who knew that this young man was so broad-hearted, he said that he should go down, there was no problem at all, and he didn't even hesitate!
This TM is called China's good foundation...... Ahh Teammates!
"Well, you don't even ask me why?"
Xun Yi agreed too happily, but it made Wen Su a little embarrassed, she bit her lip lightly, and secretly wondered if she would reveal something "preview" to Xun Yi first, so as not to be driven crazy by her own worries first.
She was still hesitating, and Xun Yi on the other side had already shook her head, and said calmly: "What are you asking for?" Let's not talk about anything else, Wen Su, don't forget, you are the disciple of your uncle's generation, the beloved disciple of Chao Yue's uncle, and your elders, if you have any orders, as long as it is not a big decision, you don't need to explain the reason to the disciples at all. ”
When the words fell, he seemed to be afraid that Wen Su would not believe it, and pinched the round circle in his arms and let it squeak as a witness.
Seeing this scene, Wen Su's heart and liver couldn't help jumping a few times, secretly pinched her palm, and forcibly restrained the beating heart in her chest.
Anyone who meets such a knowledgeable, caring and empathetic little angel will be moved to tears, okay?!
Especially this person is still the one she secretly covets.
After thinking for a while, Wen Su seemed to have figured out something, beckoned to Xun Yi, and asked him to come over.
Xun Yi lifted the white veil on his hat, and after getting closer to his face, he heard Wen Su lower his voice, and shielded the surrounding fluctuations with spiritual power, and whispered next to his ear: "...... Xun Yi, I have no other way but to trust you. I can't explain the reason now, but this Loulan Ancient City is indeed not a good stubble, I have to guard Xiao Ran, and You'er and Ziye don't need me to worry, the only thing that gives me a headache is Xu Qingrang, in short, before you leave Loulan, you'd better be inseparable from him. ”
With that, Wen Su let go of him, sat up straight again, she raised her head and looked into the distance of the desert, even through a white curtain, Xun Yi seemed to be able to see her frowning and uneasy.
He can understand that she is guarding Qu Qingran in person, she is not worried about Qing Ziye and a few people, and he can understand it, but why is it Xu Qingrang? If it's because Xu Qingrang doesn't know immortal arts, then neither can Lonely Han, why hasn't she counted Lonely Han from beginning to end?
The more he thought about it, the more he didn't understand, Xun Yi finally gave up thinking, he was entangled and depressed here! Wen Su has always been a measured person, and she never makes any useless decisions, since she will make this request with him, she must also have her reasons, and this reason is probably one of her many secrets that cannot be told.
Although she still can't tell him those secrets, at least she is willing to explain them to him a little, and instead of choosing a lie, she frankly tells him that she can't explain it now, that is, maybe she can explain it later? What's more, judging from the fact that Wen Su only came to ask him, it seems to show that he has a different status from others in her heart.
Xun Yi, the little angel who was directly turned over by his own thoughts, couldn't suppress the curvature of the corners of his mouth, if it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he would have wanted to hold Yuanyuan and throw it to the sky to celebrate.
On the side, Wen Su was looking at Wen Su in the distance, with a faint anxiety in his eyes. The closer she got to the direction of Loulan, the closer she got to this destination, the more uneasy she felt in her heart, and she couldn't control this feeling of anxiety and anxiety.
Whoever knew in advance that a friend of his would die here would not be able to be so calm!
The ancient city of Loulan is the place where Xu Qingrang was buried in the story, and it is also the place where Qu Qingran's love was broken, and it is also the beginning of the road of Qu Qingran and Lonely Han sadomasochism.
Dancing on such a dangerous stage, Wen Su said that her heart was refusal.
couldn't help but turn his head to look at the three people walking together on the other side, Xu Qingrang was sandwiched between Lonely Shuhan and Qu Qingran, those two people seemed to be arguing about something, looking like they were eager to fight on the spot, Xu Qingrang in the middle had a helpless look of "let me be quiet", but he was smiling, obviously in a very happy mood.
"Xu Qingrang, you must survive this mortal situation......"
The murmuring sound was scattered in the breeze that blew by, like a fragile dream.
About the time of Shen in the afternoon, the mighty group finally saw the figure of the ancient city of Loulan. The scorching sun shone on the rolling yellow sand, and the scene in front of me swayed and distorted as if seen through the hot air of boiling water.
An ancient city that is no less than the size of the big town in the Central Plains stands on a yellow sand plateau, the yellow-brown city wall is darker in color, and the mottled color shows the traces left by the wind and rain and vicissitudes on its body, which is clearly distinguished from the vast desert yellow sand, and the crimson cloth flags are hung on the edge and flutter in the wind, revealing a Western Regions style.
Looking inside, the rolling houses are like square castles built on a hill, with pointed and round heads at the top, which looks like a layered and eye-catching, this ancient city is like a jewel embedded in the belly of this mountain, mysterious and ancient, and it is awe-inspiring.
After walking for more than ten days, they finally saw the final destination, and the great joy made everyone a little anxious, and everyone continued to march in the direction of the ancient city with camels at a trot. But when he was still about ten kilometers away from the city gate, Wen Su obviously felt that the spiritual power that was originally full of his body was once again suppressed by a force.
Once raw and twice cooked, this feeling is simply familiar and outrageous!
"Heh~ It seems that what we expected before is really right, the array of this essence of Ze is really in this ancient city."
Wen Su grabbed the reins, raised his hand and looked at the spell that could not condense too much spiritual power on his fingertips, and the uneasiness in his heart expanded again.
Originally, the plot this time was hovering on the edge of life and death, and it actually curbed the use of immortal arts, isn't this a clear way to force people to death?
It seems that in order to increase the difficulty for her, this plot god is also hard enough!
