Chapter 70: The Origin of the Sand Valley
A gust of mountain wind blew, and the white sand under his feet moved with the wind, rolling up layers of ripples, like water waves, and the rolling earth dragon that had just spewed venom took advantage of no one to pay attention to it, "slipped" it, and re-drilled into the sand, and disappeared without a trace.
"You are all from a good background, either a famous family, or a son of a family, and you are also from a medium-sized family, but unfortunately although the martial arts are good, the experience of the rivers and lakes is too poor, and a rolling dragon almost took a life, and the next journey, if you are still like this, I'm afraid few people can go back alive." Zen Master Huiming said solemnly.
After a pause, he continued: "If you want to survive, you have to learn more from Gao Feng, he has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and he has much more experience than you." ”
"The Zen master praised it falsely, just after a few years of mixing in the rivers and lakes, and learned some skills to escape, he should not be praised like this. Gao Feng hurriedly said.
"Gao Shaoxia doesn't have to be too humble, most of the time, if he can escape with a life, even if it's good, okay, it's not early, let's not say much, let's continue to hurry." Zen Master Huiming sighed, turned around and walked along.
On the next road, the group was obviously much more vigilant, and at the slightest disturbance, they would raise their spirits and send people to investigate. Among them, Gao Feng commanded in the center, imparted the experience of the rivers and lakes, and reminded everyone from time to time of what needs to be done.
After walking for more than half an hour, on the sand in front of me, I saw a huge stone in the distance, about one zhang high, more than three zhang in length and width, round and smooth.
"Let's rest here for a while. After speaking, Zen Master Huiming stood on tiptoe, jumped on the rock, found a flat place, and sat down cross-legged.
Pang Xie and the others also jumped on the rock, fortunately, the people who came here were martial arts masters, if it was an ordinary person, the rock would be smooth on all sides, and I am afraid that they would not be able to climb up.
"It's strange, the white sand here is obviously as soft as water, even a rabbit has to sink, why can't such a big stone sink?" Mo Falcon opened the water bladder and drank a few big sips.
"I'm afraid it's not a rock, it's the summit of a mountain. Ponsie patted the stone lightly and said.
"Huh, how is it possible?" Mo Falcon was startled at first, then thought about it again, nodded and said, "That's right, otherwise there is no way to explain that such a big stone is standing here." ”
Ponsie took the water bladder, took a sip of water, and said, "I don't wonder why this stone is standing here, but I wonder where this sand comes from. ”
"This is not simple, the ancients often said that the vicissitudes of the sea, unpredictable, maybe thousands of years ago was the sea, so so much white sand was accumulated. ”
It was Mu Tianyin who accosted her, she didn't talk to Pang Xie all the way, and she didn't open her mouth for the first time until this moment.
"Far from it. Pang Xie stretched out his left hand, opened his palm, and held a small pinch of white sand in the palm of his hand, and blew it gently, and the white sand fluttered like flour, fluttering and sprinkling a large piece.
"Why?" Mu Tianyin asked unconvinced.
Pang Xie sighed and said: "Sand is made of stones, in this process, the shape will change, but the nature will never change, this sand is so light, the stones sharpened into sand must also be very light, and the stone in the area of Taihang Mountain is completely different. ”
Mu Tianyin's eyes rolled a few times, wanting to say something, but he didn't think of how to refute it, so he fell silent, lying on the stone with his back facing the sky, looking at the white clouds in the sky in a quiet daze.
Pang Xie didn't speak, but sat beside her, looking at the white sand on the ground.
"Haha, Brother Bai, the world is so big, endless, I don't know how many miracles are contained in it, you and I are not immortals, how can we know all the mysteries, just think it came out of the ground!" Gao Feng saw that he didn't speak, and thought he was thinking about it, so he patted him on the shoulder and explained casually.
Pang Xie smiled, turned around and said, "That's the only way." ”
"Guys, I have an idea. A green voice rang out behind Poncie.
Pang Xie turned around, the name of the person who spoke was Zuo Cangqiong, a disciple of a martial arts hall in Qingzhou Fucheng, although the inheritance obtained was not very smart, but the martial arts were very proficient, and one move and one style were just right.
"What do you think?" asked Pang Xie.
"It doesn't look like it came out of the ground, it looks like it fell from the sky. Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Zuo Cangqiong paused, and then said: "According to ancient records, meteorites often fall in the sky, and where they land, huge pits will be formed, isn't it similar to this valley?
After Zuo Cangqiong finished speaking, everyone was stunned on the spot, as if they were stunned by his statement.
After a long time, Pang Xie applauded lightly and said with a smile: "Brother Zuo is really powerful, he can actually guess the origin of Shensha Valley!"
Zuo Cangqiong was stunned, hurriedly waved his hand, and said, "Brother Bai is joking, I'm just talking nonsense!"
......
Several people chatted for a while, and when Zen Master Huiming saw that everyone was almost rested, he got up and led everyone to continue on the road.
The white sand is like the sea, boundless, and the group continued to walk forward, walking all day, and did not see half a figure.
Seeing that the golden wuxi was sinking, the jade rabbit was rising eastward, the night was getting thicker, and the mountain wind was damp and cold, Zen Master Huiming stopped, pointed to a black boulder not far ahead, and said, "Let's spend the night here tonight." ”
"Ahh
Along the way, the light body and qi are consumed, which consumes both physical strength and energy, and can still persist after walking for half an hour, and after walking for two or three hours, it is a little exhausted, and the feeling of dizziness in the mind is not their own.
If it weren't for the gentleness of the white sand and a little relaxation, it would have sunk, and I was afraid that I would have been lying on the ground for a long time.
The group went up to the boulder, took out water and dry food, got up to eat and drink, and when they were full of food and drink, it was time to rest.
Shensha Valley is located in the depths of Taihang Mountain, the mountain is damp and cold at night, the temperature is extremely low, the physique is a little worse, it is possible to freeze to death, however, when everyone enters the mountain, they are very well prepared, and they carry goose down quilts, fox fur blankets, these light and warm covers, but they can't freeze.
In the valley of the sinking sand, the enemy is close to the left, and naturally cannot relax at night, and someone must keep vigil.
In addition to Master Huiming, there are a total of fifteen people in the group, roughly divided into three shifts, respectively, vigil, as for Master Huiming, meditating and resting alone, he has to deliberately sharpen these more than ten people, naturally he will not keep vigil for them.
Among the three shifts, the first and third shifts are more relaxed and can sleep a whole night, but the second shift is the most sleepy time at midnight, and they can't sleep the whole night, which is the hardest.
Ruyi monk led the two junior disciples and took the initiative to undertake the second class, saying that the morning textbook of Buddhism was at midnight, so he didn't feel hard. Mu Tianyin and her two junior sisters are both women, and everyone lets them, so it is easiest for them to take a few people on the last shift.
As for Pang Xie, Mo Falcon, Mo Harrier and the other three disciples and the three disciples of the Forging Front Hall, they are on duty in the first shift, and they will be on duty from now on.
