Most of the women who grew up in the desert were very rough, and their dark skin and sand-soaked faces could be distinguished at a glance. But this one is an exception, not only famous for his beauty, but also fair in complexion, looking like everyone who grew up in the capital. Earlier, the son of the patriarch of the big tribe attached to the Wu tribe fell in love with this woman, and specially came to the door to propose marriage, if it weren't for the sudden war, now she is already married.

Although I had heard a lot from others about the brave and good deeds of the son of the patriarch, it was still not tempting for the woman. She couldn't say why, but she knew she would be sent there for her tribe to continue to prosper. Since it was delayed because of this big war, she was actually a little happy. Of course, you can't talk about this to others, even your own father.

The burly middle-aged man looked at his daughter and said, "Gina, what are you thinking?"

Gina, according to legend, is the most beautiful woman in the Wu tribe, and only one person in the past generations has been able to take this name as her name. And he is also proud of his daughter's beauty, the most dazzling pearl in the family, none other than Gina.

Gina turned her head, smiled, and did not answer, but said: "The sandstorm a few days ago was really spectacular, even the patriarch said that since he was born, he has never seen a sandstorm of this size. ”

"It's a good thing that the sandstorm didn't come to our oasis, otherwise the Wu people would have disappeared into this desert in the future. The middle-aged man scolded: "Those wolf-hearted cubs in the surrounding tribes obviously borrow food from us every year, and every time we readily agree, we won't even ask for anything in return." I didn't think they would be able to remember our kindness so much, but at least they couldn't attack us at this time!But what if they all came? The patriarch had already said that as long as they had the courage to attack us, the warriors of the Wu tribe would kill them all outside the oasis!"

Gina is also sure that her well-trained clansmen can do it, but she still can't help but be a little worried, more because she is about to leave her hometown: "Father, when the tribe we rely on cultivates, will I marry over there?"

The middle-aged man nodded and comforted his daughter: "Gina, don't worry, I have already inquired in advance, that patriarch's son is humble and extremely talented, and he can be a good husband." Your mother and I were like that, we never saw each other at first, but when we first met, it was love at first sight. ”

"How can this be compared? With a sigh, Gina said. Although she was full of complaints, she still knew in her heart that she would definitely marry into the big tribe. This is the fate of good-looking women in the desert, since ancient times.

At this moment, she caught a glimpse of Zhuge Chen lying under the sand dune: "Father, look, is there a person lying there?"

The two immediately drove the camel away, the middle-aged man lifted Zhuge Chen, looked at it and saw countless black spots on the white clothes, and then gasped and said: "Look at it like this, he should have encountered yesterday's sandstorm, I didn't expect him to survive like this, or fate." ”

The kind-hearted Gina immediately said: "Since he is not dead, let's quickly bring him back to the tribe for treatment, maybe he can save a life." ”

"What if this is a trap set by the surrounding tribes?" the middle-aged man said worriedly, "I'm afraid that when the time comes, he will join forces with the foreign tribes and annihilate our Wu tribe on the oasis." Even if you take 10,000 steps back, if this person is not a good person, he will still covet the oasis, and when the time comes, it will be the real disaster to bring the cultivators from outside the desert! Be conservative, let's just leave. ”

"But in the end, it's still a living life!" Gina refused to give up, and walked directly forward to pick up Zhuge Chen and put him on the camel, then turned his head and said to his father: "I can't see death without help!"

"You kid, everything is good, but you're too kind. The middle-aged man couldn't resist his daughter, so he had to let Gina take Zhuge Chen to the oasis.

"Shouldn't that be a merit, father?" said Gina, turning her head.

The father and daughter were speechless along the way, Gina looked at Zhuge Chen who was sleeping peacefully on the camel, and the ghost made her put her hand on each other's faces, and then said in her heart: "I didn't expect this young man to be quite handsome." ”

Back at the Oasis, Gina went to the elders of the clan and asked for an ointment handed down from her ancestors to erase the dark spots from the sandstorm. Knowing that there were outsiders, and at such a critical juncture, the Elder also followed Gina into the dome tent. He came to Zhuge Chen's bedside, grabbed one of the arms of the white coat, rolled up his sleeves, and frowned.

Gina couldn't help asking, "How is Elder, is he still saved?"

"There are so many dark spots, I've only seen them in my life. If it were someone else, he would have died in the sandstorm a long time ago, but for some reason, although the vitality in the body of this young man in white was very disordered, he still had a glimmer of life after all. You apply the ointment all over his body, and it's up to him whether he survives or not. With that, the elder walked out of the tent. He first called Gina's father, and then whispered that if Zhuge Chen survived, he would have to keep an eye on him. If you feel that this person harbors evil intentions, you can kill them first.

The middle-aged man nodded in agreement, and when he walked like a cloth tent, he happened to see Gina busy putting on white clothes for Zhuge Chen. For women in the desert, they don't attach too much importance to the "difference between men and women", let alone between life and death. Even so, Gina, who wiped the whole body ointment for others for the first time, still blushed slightly, coupled with her fair skin, the little woman's delicate appearance was undoubtedly revealed. Especially after seeing her father, Gina put on her sleeves for Zhuge Chen in a panic and left quickly.

The middle-aged man came to Zhuge Chen's bedside and stared at the two swords placed on the bedside. He tried to pull out the blade of the sword, but it was bounced away by a soft sword aura, and then he muttered to himself what a strange thing happened, and walked out of the room. Although the patrol outside the oasis was replaced by someone else, the other things in the clan were too busy for him to rest here all the time. The life of the Wu people seems to be comfortable in the eyes of other tribes, but in fact, it is not easy, but after everyone is skilled, it seems to be orderly. Running an oasis and making it more vibrant is not an easy task. Not to mention that in this desert, if you don't take advantage of it, it is very likely that you will be attacked by sandstorms.

...... Nine-zero look

Two days later, in the early morning, Zhuge Chen woke up in a noise, and his first feeling was that he was sore, and he couldn't sit up on the bed.

It seemed that she heard the voice from the cloth tent, and after a while, Gina walked in, and when she saw Zhuge Chen who opened her eyes, she was overjoyed and said: "You finally woke up, I was still wondering if you really couldn't wake up!"

Zhuge Chen, who couldn't move, could only lie upright on the bed and asked, "I...... Where is this, could it be that you saved me, girl?"

When Gina heard this, she told the story of sending Zhuge Chen back to the oasis after finding him in the desert, and then handed over a bowl of water and said, "After lying down for so many days, you are already thirsty, right?" ”

She brought the water bowl to Zhuge Chen's mouth and said, "Be good, open your mouth." ”

Zhuge Chen couldn't cry or laugh, how could he say that he was also a sword cultivator at the peak realm of the Heavenly Mandate, how could he be like a child in the eyes of this beautiful woman in front of him.

"Thank you girl for saving me, such kindness, I Zhuge Chen will definitely remember it. He spoke.

The water droplets that slipped from her mouth were also wiped dry by Gina, and then she put the water bowl on the shelf on the side, sat next to Zhuge Chen and said: "You just call me Gina, these two words represent the most beautiful girl in our Wu tribe, how about it, match me?"

Zhuge Chen smiled and nodded, I don't know if it was because Gina saved him or what, from the moment he opened his eyes and saw Gina, he had a different kind of affection for this woman. That feeling, naturally, has nothing to do with the liking between men and women, it's just that he hasn't felt it for many years.

Gina saw that Zhuge Chen didn't speak, and she didn't see outside, she directly picked up the two swords on the bedside, she tried to pull them out, but naturally she was not bounced away by the sword qi. Because Zhuge Chen had already been pulled by his heart, so that Jian Feng was no longer so guarded. But this time, Bai Yi also knew his current situation, and the qi on the cultivation path was like a dry lake, and the few were really pitiful. That's it, although the dark spots have disappeared from the surface of the body, there are still some in the veins. This also means that at least for the next period of time, the qi that you have re-cultivated can only be used to dissipate these black spots, and cannot help you return to the realm of the peak of the Heavenly Destiny. This period can be as short as two or three days or as long as a month, and it is impossible to determine now.

Fortunately, Zhuge Chen is used to this, and the realm is not impossible to regain. He has survived the rebuilding of his cultivation path, let alone the way it is now. It's just that before this, he can't go to the place outside the law, and the desert is full of dangers. In his heyday, as long as Zhuge Chen was not caught in a weird sandstorm again, he could naturally run rampant without any worries. But for Bai Yi right now, even some warriors in the tribe can easily take his life.

Gina looked at the two valuable blades in her hand, put the Sanchen sword in front of Zhuge Chen's eyes, and said sincerely: "It's better to look at this sword." ”

Zhuge Chen was silent, and when he cultivated his sword, he naturally had to pay attention to each one. It is impossible to wear two swords with increased main killing power, which is a bit extreme. Of course, this is exactly the case with white clothes, but there are very few of them. Because many sword cultivators find it difficult to find a natal sword blade in their lifetime, more often they don't pick or choose, and they use a random one. There are still few people like him who are blessed with it in the final analysis. Like Gina, judging the quality of a flying sword based on subjectivity alone is naturally very wrong.

It's just that Zhuge Chen is not interested in getting to the bottom of it, so he just said: "The sword name Sanchen contains the power of the sun, the moon, and the stars, and the sword qi is like a sky full of stars, which is naturally better-looking." It's a pity that now because of my serious injury, I have no realm now, otherwise I would have to create a starry sky for you. ”

Gina stared at Zhuge Chen and said in surprise, "You are not only a cultivator, but also a sword cultivator?"

Zhuge Chen nodded and replied, "I didn't expect you to know sword cultivation, it's not simple." ”

"That's nature. Gina had a proud look on her face: "Although it is in the desert, because of the oasis, there are still many cultivators who have come to the clan. After a long time, I also know a general idea of things in the outside world. And I not only know sword cultivation, but I also know that the killing power of sword cultivation is the best for cultivators. ”

When Zhuge Chen heard this, he laughed, but it was just that he was affected by the injuries on his body, and he couldn't help coughing violently. Seeing this, Gina hurriedly patted him on the back, and it took a long time for Bai Yi to finally stop coughing.

"You'd rather slow down, it's clear that the injuries are already so serious, and you still have to be strong. Now you're not the same sword cultivator, it's better to lie on the bed honestly and recuperate from your injuries!" Gina said, and then put the Sanchen sword into the scabbard: "You have to get better quickly, I'm still waiting to see the starry sky! But I'm still very curious, how high is your realm? It seems that our Wu clan patriarch has already stepped into the realm of the Mandate of Heaven, and according to the clansmen, this is already very high." And the patriarchs of the four major tribes are even more terrifying, and they have all been among the bamboo baskets to draw water. ”

Zhuge Chen originally wanted to tell him about his realm killing power, after all, there was nothing to deliberately hide from Gina, a kind and lovely woman. But just as he was about to speak, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a pair of eyes staring at him outside the tent. The heart of guarding against people is indispensable, Zhuge Chen immediately changed his words and said: "My realm is actually not high, but it is equivalent to an ordinary Jianghu master. It was a fluke to break out of the sandstorm, and now that I think about it, if I had been one step late, or if I hadn't met you, Miss Gina, I'm afraid I would have died in the desert. ”

Gina said sincerely: "That's already very high, after all, you're still so young." ”

Zhuge Chen smiled lightly and squinted his eyes at the person outside the tent. Could it be that on this oasis of simple folk customs, there is also a crisis?
