Chapter 65: Under the Dust
"No matter what the reason, you can't pay for innocent lives!"
"I heard that the Northern Sand Bandits are ruthless, I never thought it would be so rampant, if there is a chance, I will kill them all!"
Li Changgeng said hatefully, Chai Tiannuo turned his head to look at him and blinked lightly, and then laughed, how can this kid be so much like himself back then?
Riding his horse and galloping for forty miles, seeing that the sky was slowly darkening, Chai Tiannuo pointed to the leeward hollow behind the sand dunes, and set up camp here tonight.
Forty miles of flat land is nothing, but the desert is extremely difficult, if it weren't for Chai Tiannuo and the horses to eat, eighty percent of them would be so tired that they vomited blood.
Gulli lit a bonfire, smashed the stone-hard dough cakes, mixed them with the dried meat and threw them into an iron pot, where they were cooked until they were burnt and boiled in a large pot full of water.
In less than half an hour, a pot of gray paste mixed with fragrant noodles and fragrant meat was ready, this is what everyone eats these days, even Chai Tiannuo is the same, no exception.
The rations of the army's long-distance marches have always been like this, although they are easy to preserve and fill, but the smell is quite good, but it is another taste in the stomach.
If you eat for a long time, your stomach will be swollen and uncomfortable, and it will be as difficult as dying for a long time.
Although he made up his mind to dye the dust all the way, Chai Tiannuo still prepared bamboo leaf pine needle tea early, simple and ordinary things, but the effect is extremely high, which is the benefit of rich knowledge.
Boiling a pot of tea and drinking several large bowls per person will not only defeat the fire but also refresh the mind, and the fatigue of the day will also dissipate, and the next day will be full of energy.
Looking at Mr. Zhulin standing on the sand dunes and looking up at the starry sky, Gurri couldn't help but sigh, worthy of being a living saint, even if he is so filthy and dirty, he will not get into the dust.
After walking for three days in the sea of water and dirty sand, Mr. was still spotless, which is really impressive.
Gurli admired, but Chai Tiannuo was helpless.
This trip is to dye the dust, but I didn't expect that the dust and gravel didn't touch my body, I wanted to do it deliberately, and then I thought that it was not beautiful and lost the original intention, so I had to do it.
Leaving a bowl of paste with Chai Tiannuo, everyone sighed and snorted and eaten, Li Changgeng looked at his master with eyes full of longing, when he could reach such a realm, like a green lotus, out of the sludge without staining.
"Ziji, when do you say we will be able to reach Master's realm?"
"Such an earthly body is really eye-catching!"
Xiang Xiu looked at himself and Li Changgeng, and couldn't help grinning, it was really dirty enough!
After three days of rapid marching, the wind was howling and the dust was all over the body, and the originally bright white Confucian shirt had already turned into a different shade of earthy yellow, and there were a few small openings at the hem.
The regular beard and hair that are combed on weekdays are now unkempt like a bird's nest, and the whole body is even dirtier, not as good as the sergeants in dark armor, and a dirty beggar is not wrong.
"Senior Brother Taibai, how can you also be a great power of the five immortals, not far from the immortal path, I am just a little dusty, the realm of the master, don't think about it in this life."
Xiang Xiu shook his head and smiled bitterly, patted his body casually, and immediately raised a large cloud of dust.
「…… I think you will gain a lot from this trip!"
Li Changgeng moved his butt to avoid the dust, and said while eating.
"Why?"
"Think about the last time Demmen traveled, was there such an embarrassment?"
Li Changgeng raised his eyebrows, asked with a smile, and shook his head vigorously at Xiang Xiu:
"How can it be, there are hundreds of guards and attendants alone, and they are taking the county and state routes, and there are people waiting for them to clean their clothes at any time, after all, they represent the Northern Regions and the Academy, and the etiquette cannot be lost."
"That's it, stained with dust, not even enough dust, how can this realm make great progress?"
Li Changgeng smiled again, Xiang Xiu was slightly stunned, and after thinking about it, he really had a trace of clarity in his heart.
"Senior Brother Xie Taibai has enlightenment!"
Xiang Xiu wanted to get up and salute, but was held down by Li Changgeng:.
"Don't thank your brother like this, it's in vain!"
Xiang Xiu thought about it, nodded with a smile and sat down.
The ten sons of the sect are all handsome, and Xiang Xiu thinks that he belongs to the most inconspicuous among them, and he has the least communication with the three sons of the Daomen on weekdays.
If it weren't for the return to his hometown with his own master this time, he really didn't expect that the second senior brother of Daomen, who originally thought that he should be extremely arrogant, would be such a straightforward person.
"Senior Brother Taibai, if this is the case, you have not been stained with dust, why did you enter the Five Immortals at such a speed?"
Xiang Xiu asked curiously, Li Changgeng shook his head lightly:
"You think it's wrong in the sub-period, since I entered the academy, I have been refining and cultivating, and I haven't stopped for a moment."
Seeing Xiang Xiu's face confused, Li Changgeng laughed:
"The head of the academy, how can he be so easy to be?"
"People and the world are intertwined, and Hongchen's experience is nothing more than that, why do you think Brother Xianji and them entered the court?"
"Even the master and his old people have to be trained in the red dust, not to mention us, if we don't transform into dust, if we want to become a cicada, how can it be so easy?"
Xiang Xiu suddenly realized, so it was, and then said a little gloomily:
"Why have they never told me?"
"It's very simple, what others tell is far better than finding it yourself, and telling you that it may not be good for you."
「…… Then why did Senior Brother Taibai tell me?"
Xiang Xiu had a complicated expression on his face, Li Changgeng couldn't help but roll his eyes, patted him on the shoulder fiercely and said:
"Zi period, Zi Ji, I can't complain that the master said that you are a house, your temperament is really enough to be a house!"
"Otaku?"
Xiang Xiu rubbed his shoulders and grinned, thinking about the meaning of this word, Li Changgeng grabbed his shoulders and said seriously:
"You still don't understand the truth?"
"It's only been three days and you're still confused, but you've reached the border unconsciously, and it's okay for me to remind you again."
Speaking of this, Li Changgeng couldn't help but look at Chai Tiannuo again, and said with emotion:
"I have to say that Master is amazing, I'm afraid that it is for this reason that I brought you out."
Xiang Xiu was frightened, and then felt that there was a sound of the rope breaking in his body, and he was happy to realize that there was accumulation in the mud, and when the dust shell faded, it was the time to hiss loudly!
"Senior Brother Taibai, what is the dust that Senior Brother Daomen is made of?"
"The thirteenth is the nine grades to know the destiny of heaven, which is really envious of people!"
「…… Senior brother has a clear bone, and for him, the world is dust!"
Li Changgeng said with emotion, Xiang Xiu looked stunned again, but he felt that compared with the senior brother of the Daomen, he was an idiot with the cultivator.
"The star body is the starry sky, and as soon as he was born, he was already stained with dust."
Thinking about the conversation with Luo Hu one day, Li Changgeng couldn't help but say with emotion, after all, he is also a star in the sky, and Luo Hu knows Zhang Daoling the most!
Xiang Xiu nodded as if he understood whether he understood or not, and asked suspiciously:
"Then Senior Brother Yongqing, is it possible, curing diseases and saving people is dusty experience?"
"Congratulations, Ziji, you got it."
Li Changgeng grinned, the dust on his face fell, and he grinned at Xiu, the roads in this world are really ever-changing!
Listening to the conversation between the two disciples, Chai Tiannuo chuckled, Brother Gong Brother and friend, okay.
