Chapter 103: Home in Troubled Times

Not long after walking out of the canyon, I saw the long-lost plain area, but unfortunately it was almost Gobi, it was still extremely dry, and there were barren people at the end of the eye, only a little green.

The best growing is the tumbleweed, this thing can't keep water, Chen Jing doesn't know how to find water in a dry place, just keep walking.

The day is hot and dry, and the night is cold, even if the man and woman have cultivation, it is not uncomfortable, and it is true that they are uncomfortable.

Chen Jing took advantage of the rest to meditate, and I have to say that in this barren Gobi area, the aura is weak, and it is really hard to get much spiritual energy supplies.

Suddenly, when he thought of fairy money, the thought came up, and he was immediately strangled to death, but he didn't dare to be such a loser.

Thinking of the events of the previous few days, he didn't open his eyes, and said: "Grandpa Dong gave you the fairy money carefully, don't be a mess if you can't hold it." ”

Cui Ying was planning to have a tryst with the beauty in her dream, and after hearing Xiaojing's words, she was surprised: "How do you know that it was given to me by Old Man Dong?" ”

Chen Jing sat as usual and said lightly: "Don't tell me, if you want to leave and ask for money, it is pure fantasy that he can give you money."

It's okay for Master to give you some broken silver, don't think about fairy money.

In the end, who else can there be besides Mr. Dong? ”

Cui Ying covered the delicate bag and said scoundrelly: "I don't care, you can't beat the idea of fairy money on my side, my brother will settle the account, your side is public money, my private money, you can't control me." ”

may feel that the words are ugly, and then said: "If you run out of fairy money, I can borrow it from you." ”

"It's borrowing, not giving."

"Interest is going to be calculated."

"Give you a friendship price......

Chen Jing was so annoyed by her that he rewarded her with two words, "Shut up." ”

Take a deep breath and slowly exhale it, complaining in your heart, it is really fearless to be favored.

On the way forward, the two encountered a bare stone mountain, a group of bandits gathered on the mountain, saw a lonely man and woman, wanted to loot once, one by one shouted non-stop, babbling and spitting in dialects, like mandrills screaming, down a large number of people came to the halfway up the mountain, pushed the front behind, holding a nail rake sickle and the like, just dare not go further.

Cui Ying touched her chapped lips, "We haven't drunk saliva for two days, they are in the mountains, no matter how pitiful they are, there should be no shortage of water." ”

Chen Jing handed her the handbag, and Cui Ying left a sentence, "I'll come when I go", stepped on the steep slope and jumped up, and went straight to a few thatched huts on the top of the mountain.

The moment the mountain bandits saw Cui Ying's skills, they knew that they couldn't afford to provoke them, and immediately scattered and fled.

A few days later, the two of them came across a lifeless village, and as they walked through, there were small footsteps in some wooden houses, and some people could be seen secretly looking at each other through the cracked door panels, and their eyes revealed fear, and some anger.

Cui Ying took out the Linglong bag and was stunned, except for Bigu Dan, there was nothing to eat, and the broken silver was useless at this time, so he sighed and left.

Walking hundreds of miles, I encountered a destroyed imperial mausoleum, Shi Weng Zhong staggered from side to side, many stone statues were broken and ruined, the emperor's tomb and the people's homes, and the natural disasters were all equal.

In the depths of the imperial mausoleum, the largest scale of an emperor's tomb, like a hill, now the faΓ§ade has been dug out of a big hole, this is no longer a tomb robbery, it is actually a fair and honest grave digging.

Stop Cui Ying, who is curious and wants to go in and take a look, there are no good things left in it.

Continuing eastward, they came across an earthen city with low earthen walls, and the two of them could look into it with their feet, and all the houses in the city collapsed, and the only one that was still intact was a two-story bell tower, on which someone was staring at them with a javelin, and even if you guessed, you could know that the man was hostile to the two strangers.

There were a lot of heads exposed in the earthen wall, both old and young, with vegetable faces, some people spoke viciously to each other, some people stretched out a broken pottery bowl to beg for food, some people grabbed Cui Ying's wrist and tried to force her in, but when they saw that it didn't work, they immediately retracted their hands.

More people looked at the two strangers as if they were lifeless.

Cui Ying clapped her palms and frowned at these withered people, who couldn't bear it in the end, and had no intention of being angry.

At the end of the road, there is always a time when the willows are bright.

After walking out for a few days, I suddenly felt a fresh breath, no longer the hot and dry air of the past, looking ahead from afar, I saw a large green space, which made the two overjoyed.

Cui Ying jumped over happily, and she could still see a few figures, greeting enthusiastically, but the figures in the distance didn't seem to give her face, and she hurriedly went to the manor farther away.

Looking at the large area of dealers on the ground, and Xiaojing who came over, he said: "This is wheat seedlings, right?" ”

Chen Jingjing nodded and said, "When Old Man Dong heard it, I have to give you a good beating." ”

Cui Ying wondered: "It's not the same as the wheat seedlings in our house." ”

Chen Jing squatted down, took a look at it with his hand, and sighed: "It's not good to grow, it is estimated that it is not good to grow grain, and the fertilization is insufficient, so it looks wilted and thin." ”

He got up and glanced at the manor and said, "Go to the Zhuangzi and have a look." ”

There is no earthen wall around the Zhuangzi, but there are layers of horse-rejecting piles, and when Chen Jing and Cui Ying pass, the young and strong men on the Zhuangzi are waiting for them with all kinds of bows and crossbows behind the horse-rejecting piles.

At a gap facing the dirt road, which is considered the "gate" of Zhuangzi, a man with half of his leather armor walked out and asked in dialect: "Are you two coming for us, or are you passing by?" ”

Cui Ying scratched her ears, she really couldn't understand.

Chen Jing touched the heartstrings and replied in stumbling hometown dialect: "Just passing by, just going to the front." ”

"Broken Yue Gorge?"

"Exactly."

A white-haired old man walked out of the manor, trembling and walking to the man in leather armor, carefully looking at the men and women, and whispering a few secret words in his ear.

The man in leather armor looked puzzled after hearing this, and asked Chen Jing, "Brother is a person who ran away from exile in the early years?" ”

Chen Jing didn't hide it, and told the truth: "I was rescued by Master. ”

The man smiled and arched his hand: "In this way, the two of you are our guests." ”

Chen Jing was confused for a while, and was a little caught off guard.

Cui Ying scratched her ears and cheeks, and when she saw those people starting to fight, she didn't know what was going on, "What did you say?" What are they doing here? ”

The man in leather armor laughed heartily and pulled the man and woman into the Zhuangzi.

Waiting for the wine and meat to be placed in front of her, Cui Ying reacted, this is a good thing, greet a few fresh faces who can sit at the table, she herself will do it first, and the turbid wine will be turbid wine, which is better than nothing.

Chew a piece of meat in your mouth, fill it with a cup, and after walking such a long way, your belly has suffered a lot of grievances, and you can finally be rewarded.

Chen Jing hurriedly confessed to the man next to him, who was also the local chief, the other party laughed, and invited a cup to drink with Cui Ying, and drank it dry, and the two looked at each other and laughed.

Chen Jing borrowed wine to ask the doubts in his heart, "Why is the chief so enthusiastic about the two of us?" ”

The lieutenant patted him on the shoulder, "Don't think about it, just because you were rescued by someone, not by yourself." ”

Taking off his leather armor, the lieutenant finally became happier, "I don't know what your master's ability is, since he can save you, his character is not bad."

I have been living alone in exile, and now I can still survive, how many people are well-intentioned and are good people? ”

Chen Jing thought of the situation encountered on the road ahead, and couldn't refute it, so he had to nod.

"You can see the crops outside."

Seeing Chen nodded, he continued: "If there is no fairy master to take care of a few points, it would be good to plant one acre and collect three points." ”

Chen Jing's eyes lit up, "Is there a fairy master sheltering here?" ”

The lieutenant took a sip of wine, shook his head and said, "Asylum may not be able to be said, but it's almost there." Now that there is a lot of drought in the north, if there is no immortal master to cast a spell to rain, we ordinary people will not have the way to run a stable Zhuangzi.

When encountering some heartless and crazy homeless people who come to kill people and set fires, they will go to ask the gods and lords, and they will solve it with kindness.

But that's limited to it, we also know how bad it is, we can't bother the fairy lord with everything, I once tried to make offerings to the fairy lords, but I was rejected, and I didn't have to negotiate a little, and the villagers used to say 'Qingtian Lord', it should be changed to 'Qingtian Old Immortal'. ”

Chen Jing asked, "Which mountain gate is the immortal lord who is so kind and sympathetic to the people?" ”

Li Chang shook his head: "I don't know, after all, it is a fairy figure who is high above and does not touch the ground with his feet, for us ordinary people, which mountain gate is not much different?" ”

Then he pointed to the male and female, "Since you two are going to Broken Yue Gorge, there is a great chance of meeting the fairy master." ”

The little drunk lieutenant squinted his eyes and said, "The fairy lord flew by in the sky, and it was amazing." ”

Chen Jing complimented on the side: "I can fly, naturally I am powerful." ”

The lieutenant took the wine glass and touched it with him, and asked with wide eyes: "Brother, how is your master, can you fly?" ”

Chen Jing gritted his teeth and panicked, "I can fly, but I can only fly a little, not too far." ”

The lieutenant patted his kneecap again and again, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "That's enough, it's more than enough to be less than the top." ”

Cui Ying teased a few children with the meat and bones in her hand, babbling, no one on either side could understand, and it didn't matter, a big child, a circle of children, it was also a happy thing.

Chen Jing looked around, there were still people on duty around the Zhuangzi, many men and women in the Zhuangzi were busy, each doing their own thing, and the dolls came over as if they were rare, staring at the men and women.

Chen Jing sighed in his heart: "The troubled times have finally given birth to new ideas. ”

After staying overnight, early in the morning, the man and woman said goodbye and continued on their way.

After walking far away, Cui Yingcai reluctantly turned around, this guy didn't have much awareness of eating people's soft mouths and taking short hands, and asked the chief for an urn of turbid wine, and the urn didn't have to be returned.

Chen Jing opened his mouth and said, "Eighty miles." ”

Cui Ying took a wheat seedling in her mouth, was stunned for a moment and said, "There are only eighty miles left?" ”

Chen point head, less than 100 miles away, speed up the foot force, at most midnight can arrive, the mind has risen, a foot out, use light power to fly, when touching the ground, the toe dragonfly point water, and then take the strength to move forward.

Cui Ying can't be like him, brute force is like her, more like a mountain jump, her legs push forward, in line with her temperament, unless a beauty fairy sees it, she will be patient to show people a kung fu of "stepping on the snow without a trace".

Chen Jing used more energy than effort, and Cui Ying was the opposite.

Stopping halfway to rest, the sound of the waves came from far and near while the two were meditating.

Chen Jing opened his eyes and returned after several spring and autumn periods, his mood fluctuating with the sound of the waves.

Hometown timidity.
