Chapter 35: Desert Survival (22)

After staying in the town for a few days, when the matter of Yan Jingxing was over, everyone set off back to Huangsha Castle. Chu Yunyun distributed a few gifts collected from the town to everyone, and after resting, life went on as usual.

After seeing the vast world outside, Chu Yunyun practiced martial arts more diligently, training and training again every day, occasionally thinking about his next plans. Life here is really safe and comfortable, the risks in the desert are completely isolated, everyone treats her sincerely, and if there is no concern in her heart, she can spend the rest of her life here.

After practicing a set of whipping techniques in the evening, Chu Yunyun came to the roof as usual. This is equivalent to halfway up the mountain, and you can see the entire Yellow Sand Castle. There is also a female wall around the roof, which is equivalent to a modern guardrail, which is a half-low wall built of earth, which will not block the view, but also ensure the safety of the people on it, which is a very advanced and clever invention.

Since coming to the roof a year ago, she has liked this place, and later asked Wei Lang to build a chaise longue and put it on it according to her description, and she will come here when she is free or bored. Looking at the bright starry sky, looking at the lights of the few houses under the mountain, blowing the occasional cool breeze, thinking about the things that can't be told to people.

"What have you been thinking lately? You've been preoccupied since you came back from Modong Town. After Yan Jingxing found out that she was not in the house, he guessed that she might have come here, and sure enough. It's just that there is nothing unusual about asking the few people who followed her, and she won't be scared by the things she came up with on her own.

Chu Yunyun got up and moved to the side, letting Yan Jingxing sit down, but fortunately, Wei Lang was afraid that she would roll off from it, so he made the chaise longue wide enough.

Seeing that Yan Jingxing was still black and short, with a full beard and bright black eyes, but maybe he was used to it, Chu Yunyun felt that this dress made people feel safe, at least they would not harm people at will. "Who are you?"

Yan Jingxing was stunned for a moment, and then bared his teeth with a straight smile, "I thought you weren't going to ask all along." After more than a year of contact, he knows that she is very smart and knowledgeable about current affairs, and she hates to cause trouble, so she knows that Huangsha Fort is not a sand bandit nest on the surface, and everyone will go out of the fort to do things every once in a while, but she never asks, just like this is really just a simple and simple mountain village. It seems that she can get along well with everyone, but in fact, she doesn't really integrate herself into it. Now, finally asked.

The Yan family is a hermit family in the south of the Yangtze River, the ancestors have been re-elected as the three princes of the court for several generations, but then it was not easy to get rid of the partisan dispute, the patriarch in order to protect the family, after leaving office, the whole family moved to the sparsely populated place in Jiangnan, where they took root, and left the ancestral teaching: within six generations, not to enter the dynasty as an official, not to commit treason.

Due to the heavy losses due to partisan disputes in that year, coupled with the fact that Jiangnan was a barren land at that time, and there was no prosperous market for business, the vitality of the Yan family was greatly damaged. It was only when Yan Jingxing's grandfather began to recover gradually, and Yan's father already belonged to a wealthy family, but Yan's father was interested in martial arts since he was a child, and he established Yan Pavilion for a while.

Father Yan traveled north and south to get to know many people, but he was casual and low-key, and few people knew that he was the real master of Yan Pavilion. Yan Jingxing hadn't seen Father Yan a few times when he was young, and he would always ask him where he was at first, but he didn't read the news from Yan Pavilion anymore, because Father Yan had never cared about this family, and he didn't even see Grandfather Yan for the last time, and he hurried back when he was about to be buried. Yan Jingxing has not said a word to him since then.

Until he was ten years old, he was taken away in a drowsy state, and by the time he woke up, he was already in the desert, surrounded by only a few Yan Ge subordinates who stayed in the Yan family to protect him at that time, except for Uncle You and Aunt You's family. As for what happened and why he was taken from Jiangnan to the desert, he didn't know anything other than knowing that this was the last order his so-called father had given to His Excellency Yan.

Because he had ordered that the Yan Pavilion of his family should not pass on any news of Father Chu to him, the people who followed him did not know much more than him. Life has to go on, Yan Jingxing knew when he was very young that everything in this world could not be relied on except himself, so he quickly calmed down, since it is not clear now, then make himself strong, so strong that one day everything will not be able to escape from his palm.

Since he was a child, he has inherited the intelligence of the Yan family and his biological father's martial arts talent, since he wants to survive here, then live a good life. The desert is completely different from the south of the Yangtze River, even if there is gold and jewelry here, it is not as precious as a pool of water, and their group walked to many places, and rescued a few people on the road one after another, before choosing an inaccessible oasis and establishing a yellow sand castle here.

Two years later, before the Yellow Sand Castle was built, another group of people appeared, who were members of the Yan Pavilion outside the family at that time, but they were not the core figures. There were thirty or forty people who came, but it was difficult to find people in the desert, and there was a sandstorm, and there was a lot of damage on the road. Yan Jingxing did not refuse these people to join, now is a period of shortage of manpower, the more the merrier, but they actually brought an order that made him extremely angry, and it was his biological father: he was not allowed to leave the desert for six years, otherwise the people of Yan Pavilion around him, including Uncle You's family, would all kill themselves. Although these people have served him as the Lord, they will never disobey Father Yan's orders. So he could only temporarily suppress his doubts and anger, and stayed in the desert for six years, accumulating strength and cultivating his own power.

"So in the desert, have you become a sand bandit in the past few years?"

"Well, it was quite kind at first, but later I found out that only a powerful fist can speak for itself, so I walked around with a big knife, and sure enough, no one dared to mess with the Yellow Sand Castle. I also saved some people, and in order to survive, I volunteered to join me as the boss, and the Yellow Sand Fort was built bigger and bigger. ”

"No wonder some people in the fort call you boss, and some call you master. The people who call the master are the people of Yan Pavilion back then. What about Uncle You's family, I feel like your subordinates and relatives, they are Jiangnan people. ”

"The You family is the servant of the Yan family, when the ancestor saved the You family when he went to Jiangnan, he swore that the You family will be the servant of the Yan family for generations in order to repay the favor. In fact, over the years, the You family has been no different from their relatives. But how do you know that they are from Jiangnan and not brought to the south from Beijing?"

"At that time, I felt strange when I heard the surname You, especially You Min looked like a literati in the water town of Jiangnan, so I was even more sure. Of course, she wouldn't say that there was once a classmate with the surname You, and she was curious to check that You's surname was mostly in the south. "What about Aunt You, she doesn't look like a Jiangnan person. ”

Yan Jingxing looked at her and smiled, "Aunt You is one of my mother's wedding maids, my mother's home is in the southwest, it is said that she was saved by the person who traveled there, and the two fell in love at first sight and married to the Yan family thousands of miles away." Aunt You and her mother are sisters and sisters, their status in the Yan family is not low, and they are beautiful and likable and can talk, many people pursued her at that time, and finally chose a taciturn Uncle You. Now I have to say that Aunt You has good eyesight, and she has been pampered by Uncle You for so many years. In fact, he has always been very envious of You Min.
