Volume 2 People in the Years of the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 41 Dragon Scroll

In this midsummer season, the days are long and the nights are short, and the fish belly is faintly visible in the east, and the morning breeze is cool, and the people who blow it are so comfortable.

The young man was not comfortable at all, but he secretly wondered in his heart that this dismount was not as fast as the Huaitan Snow Dragon Horse, the reins shook and crackled, and the distressed old Yin Tou kept frowning, but he couldn't say it, he could only slander it.

"This is more than 700 miles, there are some Gobi Desert, the road is full of gravel, you need to change horses twice on the way, even if you don't rest, you have to get there tomorrow after noon, what can the son do if he is so anxious." The old Yin Tou who was behind the young man spoke.

The boy just urged the horse, and he didn't want to talk to him.

Now that the Gobi Desert is on the edge of the sand sea, the horses are much happier than in the desert, but the sand and gravel are also sharper than those in the desert.

After galloping for another hour, he had already seen the sun show most of his face in the east, the young man seemed to think of something, stopped pulling the reins, drank saliva to moisten his dry throat, turned his head to look at the old man behind him, and said, "You guys go back to Loulan, I will walk the rest of the way by myself." ”

"Don't." Ah Da refused and was also happy, "Taishou said, even if we die, we can't let you get hurt a little, if we go back, I'm afraid we won't be able to get rid of Shou Lang's cheap status in this life." ”

Although the words are selfish, they are true.

The young man saw that Wu Liuqi was already paralyzed on horseback, although he was also anxious in his heart, but he felt that there was no need to let them follow him like this, thinking about what Lao Yin had just said, he said, "Rest and rest first." ”

The old Yin Tou opened the gourd and poured a sip of wine, and then lifted the water bladder and poured a sip, this way of drinking is also amazing. He is also a human spirit who has lived for fifty or sixty years, watching people and guessing their hearts, I don't know whether to persuade or explain, and said: "Let's run day and night, that gang of horse thieves must not be in such a hurry, and the two compartments will be offset at the same time." ”

The young man didn't speak, he sat on horseback and looked at the sun in the east squeezing out of the horizon little by little, like a big plate, red, and the surrounding clouds were even more beautiful.

The old Yin Tou still scruples to run to the downwind outlet to wrap a cigarette bag pot, this time he smoked slowly, squinted and spit out a puff of thick white smoke with great enjoyment, and looked at the morning sun like a teenager, "The morning glow does not go out, and the sunset travels thousands of miles." ”

Xiao Shou Lang Wu Liuqi also sat quietly next to the old Yin, and looked at the old man with a look of ignorance at this time, obviously not understanding this sentence.

"This is a proverb summed up by the ancestors for thousands of years of experience, there is a colorful glow in the morning, it is estimated that there will be rain today, and a colorful glow in the evening, and tomorrow must be a sunny day." Old Yin explained patiently.

Speaking of Lao Yin, Toutou is the only one in the detention camp who has seen Wu Liuqi since he was a child, from Wu Liuqi is still in infancy, to now in his teens, how does this child learn to walk, the first word he says, Lao Yintou is all in front of him. Lao Yin has no children and no daughters, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he regards Wu Liuqi as his grandson.

Wu Liuqi was still at a loss, not knowing what Old Yin Tou'er meant by saying this at this time.

"The weather is bad, and those horse thieves can't go fast."

Old Yin's words attracted the young man's sideways.

"Walk for a while." Lao Yin took a cigarette bag and pot and knocked on Wu Liuqi's head, and he was not afraid that the hot tobacco leaf nest would burn this little shou Lang who "inherited his father's business".

Xiao Shou caught Lang Wu Liuqi obediently got up and set up his horse on the spot.

"Close your eyes." The old Yin Tou was another cigarette pouch and the pot knocked on the child's eyebrows.

"Raise your head, raise your chest, tuck your abdomen, keep your waist straight, your legs bowed, and your knees flat." The old Yin said a word and knocked on one place, and knocked six times in a row.

On the contrary, the young man came to be interested, watching the old and the young.

Ah Da, who always talks a lot, said: "This is the most common training method in the camp, we usually practice like this, I don't know where Lao Yin got so many requirements." ”

The young man is also half a bottle of vinegar, and he can't explain the unheard of and unseen technique of the old Yin Tou'er, so he can only look at the left and right and say: "Zama step is the foundation, and after the foundation is practiced, it will naturally get twice the result with half the effort." ”

The young man could see it, but he only felt that the old man was careful about the child's steps, and he didn't have much idea about anything else. Ah Da belongs to the horizontal practice of kung fu, all the exercises are muscles and bones, and it is too late for him to want to take the inner road at such an age, and he just trains weekdays, and he has never been in contact with the inner doorway, so he naturally doesn't know that the old teacher in front of him teaches him to breathe and breathe.

It took about a quarter of an hour and a half to work, and the old Yin Tou knocked Wu Liuqi with a cigarette bag and pot, and his mouth was still chanting: "First raise your waist, then spread your knees, then close your legs, inhale your abdomen, hold your chest, and exhale." ”

The young man didn't know why he heard Lao Yin'er's words, but he unconsciously remembered his last sentence, from childhood to adulthood, if you count it according to the average time, you are afraid that you will have to tie up an hour every day, don't teach your own martial arts, even if you are your own strict old man, you have never taught like this.

These two sentences are vaguely felt that there is a connection, not just a literal connection, but the inner mystery is very mysterious.

The young man couldn't understand it, so he simply didn't think about it, and hit the horse to the south.

On the Gobi Desert, four horses galloped, raising a puff of dust, and the sun in the distance had already revealed its whole face, floating on the horizon about a palm's width away, and the colorful glow was still wandering around, red.

"The wind is blowing." Ah Da said for no reason.

Old Yin said early on that there was rain today, and it was naturally not an exaggeration to have wind before the rain, but this wind was a little stronger.

Ah Da was still a strong wind when he spoke, but he could feel some obstruction when he moved forward, and after a few breaths, a gust of evil wind blew, flying sand and rocks fell into the earth and rocks, and the originally bright sky was drowsy.

The evil wind comes and goes quickly, and the dark clouds come from the east to cover the sky and cover the sun, sweeping the entire Gobi Desert, and there is a great tendency to go all the way west to encompass the sand sea.

"Tatsumaki!"

The young man only looked up at the vast formation of the rolling dark clouds heading westward, Ah Da startled him with another urgent cry, followed the sound to the east, and a pillar of wind appeared out of thin air on the horizon that was faintly red, swaying and connecting the heavens and the earth, stirring up the thick black clouds, tearing out a hole, and releasing the bright fire of Chaoyang.

The wind pillar flickered from south to north, left and right, but it has not changed the general direction from east to west, and the momentum is extremely fast, and you can feel the slight pain of sand and stones hitting your face in the tea scene.

"Mother, old Yin, have you opened your mouth?" Ah Da shook the reins fiercely, and he still had the heart to joke in this situation.

The tornado pillar was menacing, and in the blink of an eye, it was a few miles closer, and the old Yin Tou pulled Wu Liuqi's horse with one hand, and yelled against the wind: "Find the back of the hillside, hide first." ”

Wu Liuqi was thin after all, and it seemed that he was in danger of blowing away while holding the horse's neck, and the young detective dragged him to his horse, trying to squint to find a place to hide.

Still with big big eyes, he pointed to the northwest and shouted "over there", and ran over first.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and almost in the blink of an eye, I felt the pain of being hit by the gravel and gravel, and I couldn't open my eyes, so I could only follow Ah Da by feeling and gallop over.

There is a hill in the northwest direction, although it is not high, but the situation is not much at the moment, and the four of them turned over the hill and saw that a sloping boulder below happened to separate the huge space, and it seems that this hill is also created by the accumulation of sand and gravel over the years. Before they could think about it, the four men and four horses descended down the hill and plunged into the hollow under the boulder.

Seeing that the tornado pillar was getting closer and closer from thin to thick, I was afraid that the three of them could not hug each other, and everywhere they went was a mess. The space of this hole is limited and very low, the horse is tall and nature can't get into it, so the old Yin Tou untied the headband on his head, passed through the horse's reins one by one, and tied a few dead knots one by one, and the tornado pillar had arrived.

It wasn't until near that I could feel the power of the heavens and the earth, not only the pain of flying sand and rocks hitting the body, but also the strong pull of the wind that seemed to tear people apart, and the strong wind speed was also competing with people for the air in this space, and the sound of the wind was more terrifying than the explosion of thunder out of thin air, endlessly bombarding the cochlea.

In the end, it was also a pot to eat, the old Yin head protected Wu Liuqi, and Ah Da held the old Yin head again, lying on his head face inward and back outward. The boy has the same example, and he is in the same posture against Ah Da.

In the end, the four of them had a cover, and the horses outside were miserable, and they began to kick and neigh restlessly, and they all struggled to hold the reins in the hands of Lao Yin Tou and Ah Da.

After all, the horse is still strong, and at the juncture when this is life-threatening for the horse, how can the strength be beyond the reach of manpower? Listening to the sound, the tornado pillar should have broken away from the center of the four, and the horses tied together neighed and retreated in unison, breaking free of the pull of Old Yin Tou and Ah Da.

Said that it was too late, and the young man who was peeking at the situation of the wind pillar grabbed the reins, but his feet were unstable and he fell to the ground as soon as he was dragged by the horse.

The old Yin Tou also reached out to reach it, but the wind was too strong and he was thin, and he tried several times in vain, and shouted loudly: "Let the horse go!" ”

The young man didn't speak, it wasn't that he didn't want to speak, the tornado was a foot away on the left, and the majestic sound, let alone talking, it was difficult to breathe evenly at the moment. The young man also wanted to let go, but the subconscious action just now coupled with the chaos of a blink of an eye, the reins and his arm were entangled, and it was impossible to let go.

The young man's waist and eyes were forced, his feet kicked the ground, and his originally prostrate body slowly began to stand upright, and then slowly leaned towards the hole. This action is simple to say, but in fact, it is fighting against this tornado, and it is also necessary to drag four horses and use their bodies to fight against the power of heaven and earth, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

The tornado seemed to be against the will, and the speed of the time it went was much slower than when it had just come, and two of the four horses had already been swept into the whirlpool of the wind pillar, and the strength of the frightened was even greater, and the young man's somewhat inclined body was dragged again.

The young man smiled bitterly in his heart, and secretly said that it was not easy to walk this 10,000-mile road, so he owed Zhuang Yuan. Thinking about it again at this life-and-death juncture, I can still be distracted to think about the chattering Loulan girl, I don't know if it's angry or ridiculous.

Coupled with the knee-conscious muscle distortion caused by flying sand and rocks slapping indiscriminately on his face, the young man's expression at the moment is really indescribable.

The old Yin Tou squinted his eyes in the hole, his expression was solemn, Wu Liuqi was so frightened that he was just trembling in his arms, and the feet of Ah Da next to him had already kicked out of the deep earth pit, the ground of the Gobi Desert was very hard, so it can be seen that this guard and catcher also began to use the strength to fight for his life.

Old Yin Tou'er sat cross-legged, his eyes closed, one hand to protect Wu Liuqi, and the other hand pressed on Ah Da's shoulder. Under this strong tornado, he also understands that it is a little difficult to save people directly with his ability, it is better to stabilize Ah Da, and he can only hope that the body and bones that the young man has cultivated can survive this period.

Ah Da only cared about dragging the boy hard, and he didn't notice the warm current that suddenly appeared in his body, just thought it was the heat after his own exertion.

Instead, the young man who gritted his teeth and insisted until his expression was almost distorted obviously felt that the force in his right hand was much more stable, but this tornado was too big, and it was in vain for him to open his eyes and take a look.

"He is strong, he is strong, I listen to the thunder to call Tianyang!"

"He's hard to let him be hard, I'll catch the dragon python!"

One sentence, two sentences and two meals, in such a whirring wind, like spring thunder resounded through the cochlea of a young man.
