Chapter 581: See the Storm Again
I thought that this sandstorm would stop after a day and a night, but who would have thought that this scraping would be three days.
The sky has become dark and the sun has been obscured, and the desert has become eerie and eerie.
The wind roared, as if countless beasts were roaring, and the sound was shocking.
The wind and sand were pervasive, the vision became blurred, everything was shrouded in chaos, and the desert seemed to have turned into a violent world.
The sky took on a dim yellow color, the sun was obscured by a thick layer of sand, and the air was filled with the smell of sand.
The wind swept up the fine sand, forming a whirlpool, and the tiny grains of sand swirled in the air, as if thousands of golden threads were dancing.
Wind and sand swept wildly through the dunes, rolling up the sky with dust.
The wind swelled, the yellow sand rolled like a huge wave, the wind roared and rolled up patches of dust, and everything around was drowned in this violent force of nature.
The hills in the distance, the sand dunes in the near distance, were blurred, and there was a dreary atmosphere in the air.
The yellow sand is like a dragon, tossing and dancing, covering the sky and the sun, and everything in the desert seems to tremble in this strong wind.
All life seems so insignificant in this raging sandstorm that only the forces of nature can show unparalleled power in this barren land.
The constant sandstorm brought a large amount of yellow sand, almost burying the entire inn.
The camels, horses, and goods parked behind the inn would have been buried in the yellow sand if it weren't for the caravan's porters and guards who went out to take care of them every day.
The broken wooden door of the inn was also crushed by the accumulation of yellow sand, and the sand poured into the inn, and everyone struggled to clear the sand and close the door again.
Fortunately, this is an oasis, otherwise I am afraid that the entire inn would have disappeared into the yellow sand.
In the past three days, everyone has been disgraced, and there is almost no peace for a moment.
Many people in the caravan complained that after walking in the desert for so many years, it was the first time they had encountered such a large sandstorm, which was simply a once-in-a-century encounter.
Fortunately, the adobe house of the inn was still sturdy, although the roof was crushed in a few places, and sand leaked in, but with the efforts of everyone, the gap was finally blocked, but the inn was full of sand.
Listening to the howling wind outside the window and looking at the sand leaking roof, not only Land Rover, but even Sun Lichang felt a headache.
"I've never seen such a big sandstorm in my life, how did we catch up? Fortunately, there is a place to settle now, and if we were in the desert, I am afraid that all of us will not be spared! ”
It seems that Sun Lichang is also at a loss in the face of such a sandstorm, and he has never encountered nature and has no experience, so everyone in the inn seems very nervous at this time.
If this sandstorm had not stopped, this little inn might not last long.
Just when everyone was worried and at a loss, the sandstorm that lasted for three whole days finally subsided.
At this time, it didn't matter who was the shopkeeper or who was the guest, everyone worked together to clean the sand around the inn, and some people climbed on the roof to clean the sand from the house and then began to repair the roof.
In addition to cleaning the sand and repairing the house with the others, the Land Rover father and son also have to boil water and cook to take care of everyone's food.
Now that there is no distinction between each other, everyone is too lazy to calculate the money when they eat and drink, and since everyone works together, it also saves a lot of things for Land Rover.
After most of the day's work, I finally cleared all the sand around the inn, at least I didn't have to worry about the sand collapsing the house, and the roof was almost repaired.
At this time, everyone was sweating profusely, and their bodies were covered with sand, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
Back in the inn, the Land Rover father and son hurriedly brought hot water to everyone to scrub their bodies, and brought hot meals to the table to beckon everyone to drink and eat.
It's the first time in so many years that the inn has been so lively, and it's the first time that so many people have worked together to keep the inn.
Land Rover was full of gratitude, and the hospitality of everyone naturally did not care about the cost, and he didn't consider the question of making money or not, and almost took out everything that could be eaten and drunk in the store.
Everyone was depressed in the inn for three days, and then went out to toss for most of the day, and at this time they all had a great appetite, no matter what they grabbed and stuffed into their mouths.
They also opened the last few jars of coarse grain wine in the shop, and poured them into their mouths as if they were drinking water.
Shao Xi, Lao Wu, Fu Biao, and Wu Qiuer also participated in cleaning up the yellow sand and repairing the houses.
While everyone was eating and drinking happily, talking about the results of everyone's efforts just now, the two wooden doors of the inn, which were already in tatters, made a "clang" sound again.
By this time the sandstorm outside had subsided, and the wooden door had been opened so vigorously that everyone knew that it had been kicked open again.
I saw a group of dusty people squeezed in from the door, and as soon as they entered the house, they began to shake off the sand on their bodies.
The leader is none other than Li Ermazi.
Shao Xi's first feeling when he saw him was that he wanted to laugh, not because of the embarrassed appearance of their group of people covered in dust, but because they wondered how this thing would be so punctual!
said that he would come back in three days, but he rushed over in a hurry as soon as the sandstorm ended, I don't know whether to say that he is dedicated, or whether to say that he is shameless? For the remaining five taels of silver, he really fought hard.
As soon as Li Er Mazi entered the house, he shouted: "Hurry up, hurry up!" Bring all the wine and meat to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu was hungry after a long day of driving, so he filled Lao Tzu's stomach first. ”
Land Rover turned his head to look at his son Lu Yunxiang, and greeted him helplessly.
said to Li Ermazi: "The second master is in a hurry, please sit down!" The small ones will serve you the lamb stew. ”
This time, before Sun Lichang could speak, Li Ermazi took the group of horse bandits and began to drive away the two tables of caravan porters closest to the door.
"Get out of here! Didn't you see Lao Tzu coming? I don't have any eyesight. ”
The two table porters looked up at Sun Lichang, Sun Lichang glanced at them, and everyone got up one after another and moved the wine and meat on the table to other tables, and everyone was finally able to sit down.
Sun Lichang also politely arched his hand at Li Er Mazi and did not talk to him again.
Li Er Mazi led the horse bandits to sit down one after another, only to see him raise one foot and step on the stool.
shouted at Lu Yunxiang: "Little cub, are you blind? Didn't you see Lao Tzu coming? Why don't you hurry up and bring the wine to Lao Tzu? Who to show as if she was a dead mother? Oh yes! You little cub has no mother. ”
Hearing Li Ermazi's words, Lu Yunxiang's eyes suddenly turned red, and he glared at the other party through gritted teeth, as if he wanted to tear Li Ermazi apart.
He had never seen his mother since he was born, and now someone was mocking him about it, and even if he was only a ten-year-old child, he could not accept such an insult.
But in the face of many horse bandits, he was really powerless to resist, but the anger in his heart finally made him slam back at Li Ermazi.
"No more wine! If you want to drink and go elsewhere, and come and eat and drink for nothing for three days, do you have no hands and feet yourself? Your mother gave birth to you just to make you a robber? ”
Although he was just a child, he had to say that he said this sentence very boldly, Shao Xi couldn't help but secretly give Lu Yunxiang a thumbs up when he sat on the side.
Although Lu Yunxiang can only be tough in his mouth as a child, he is tough enough to be brave enough to say his true thoughts in the face of these shameless things.
Li Er Mazi heard that Lu Yunxiang actually dared to talk to him like this, how could he hold it on his face?
"Bang" slapped the table and jumped up, and the wooden table, which was already crumbling, was directly slapped apart by his slap.
He stepped over the stool and walked straight towards Lu Yunxiang.
At this time, he was just in time for Land Rover to come out of the stove with a pot of hot stewed mutton, in fact, he heard the conversation between the two in the stove, and also knew that Lu Yunxiang, the child, was in trouble, so as soon as he came out, he hurriedly blocked Lu Yunxiang behind him.
With a smile on his face, he said to Li Ermazi: "Children, children, there is no sense of proportion, don't take it to heart in the second master, the second master of the stewed mutton that has just come out of the pot hurry up and eat a few bites."
"This wine is indeed gone, it has been ordered by these guests, and the small one will discuss with them to give two jars to the second master, and the second master will extinguish the fire, don't be like this child."
Who knew that Li Er Mazi refused to give up, and as soon as he raised his hand, he knocked over the pot of hot stewed mutton in Land Rover's hand, and a pot of hot mutton with soup and water was splashed on the face of a horse bandit next to him.
The hot horse bandit covered his face and fell to the ground and kept rolling, and the other horse bandits all got up and surrounded him when they saw this, and the scene was chaotic now.
Originally, Li Ermazi was not good at them today, but now someone was burned, although it was caused by Li Ermazi, but this matter was immediately counted on Land Rover's head.
"Damn, Lao Tzu came to collect the cash today, you two still dare to burn my brothers with your hands, I think you are especially impatient."
said that he raised his hand and gave Land Rover a big slap, Land Rover covered his face and quickly nodded and apologized to Li Ermazi, and ran over to help the scalded horse bandit wipe the hot soup on his face.
After just such a while, Li Er Mazi actually raised his foot and kicked towards Lu Yunxiang.
How can a ten-year-old child withstand this kick in the face of a burly horse bandit like Li Er Mazi?
Lu Yunxiang's whole person was kicked up by Li Ermazi, and he hit the door curtain of the stove room and flew directly into the stove room, only to hear the sound of "jingle bells" and bowls being knocked over in the stove room.
Land Rover, who was wiping the face of the horse bandit on the ground, turned around and saw that his son was actually kicked away by Li Ermazi, and he couldn't take care of anything, so he got up and rushed into the stove.
Li Er Mazi scolded the stove through the door curtain: "Shameless face, Lao Tzu doesn't want silver today, Lao Tzu will kill you two today." ”
As he spoke, he picked up his wide-backed broadsword and walked towards the stove, seeing that this posture did not want to let go of the Land Rover father and son.
Shao Xi sat on the side and was a little dumbfounded, and was about to get up, but what happened next was not only him, but also everyone present was stunned.
