Chapter 18: The Valley of the Sunken Sand

In late autumn, the sky is the purest blue, and the rustle of leaves makes the sky more tranquil when the wind blows through the trees.

Chen Yunqiu lay under the tree, his hands under his head and looked at the sky in a daze. Zu Li next to him also rarely did not dance the sword, but sat against the trunk of the tree, his eyes blank.

Qu Zhuyun sat quietly not far away as usual. Chen Jinzhi looked around, and with a wave of his hand, Edgeworth strung four birds back.

Qu Zhuyun was very conscious and began to light a fire to prepare for roasting birds.

Chen Yunqiu grinned and said, "Old Chen, I thought you had thought through everything you had planned for so long. ”

"I also thought I had thought about it," Chen Jinzhi was a little embarrassed, "It was originally planned, all the way north to Beipi, and turn around to Chen Guo...... in the south."

"Don't say it, aren't you just preparing to travel around the world, but you haven't thought about anything else except the route?"

"I've thought about eating...... But because I've eaten all the specialties of Yong'an City, I didn't buy them. ”

"That's why we didn't bring any dry food?"

"The books I used to read were all about having a stall selling wine and meat every once in a while. Chen Jinzhi said aggrievedly.

"Alas, Uncle Chen, it's my fault, I forgot that your life experience is basically zero. Chen Yunqiu sighed.

Zu Li couldn't bear to look at it, and began to plead: "Brother Qiu, don't blame the master, it's the first time he went out and he was too excited to forget about this." ”

"Actually, it's the second ......," Chen Jianxian corrected beside him.

"Anyway, when you refused the carriage arranged by your Xiaoliu, I felt outrageous. What is it that fighting the sword world is what the sword cultivator does, it is too embarrassing to take the carriage, and as a result, we have been walking like this for two days, and we have no food to eat, is it so desolate to walk the rivers and lakes!" Chen Yunqiu became more and more angry the more he thought about it, although Qu Zhuyun's baked food was delicious.

"I don't feel like I'm riding in a carriage, and I'm sure I'm going to be handsome when I finally come out!"

As he spoke, the Great Elder began to be more reasonable.

"Okay, okay, I don't blame you, next time we go to a place that sells carriages and stuff and buys one. You can ride a horse to open the way in front, and you are handsome with a sword on your back. Chen Yunqiu began to appease Chen Jinzhi.

"How do I feel like you're cheating on me?"

"How can you, you want to be handsome, but we can't keep up with you physically strong, so we can only take the carriage in the back. ”

"Hey, you little guy, you want to trick me into opening the way in front as a guard?"

Chen Jinzhi finally reacted, stretched out his hand and patted Chen Yunqiu's head, and pretended to be angry and said.

"How can that, in fact, even Uncle Chen, you are very handsome when you sit in front of the carriage and catch the car. ”

"You kid is so bold, you actually want a fairy land to drive the car for you. ”

"It's really handsome, just now I'm still waiting for the little bamboo roast bird to eat, let me tell you a story, pure martial arts." Chen Yunqiu got up, leaned against the tree, and saw that they all had no opinion, so he began to tell the story.

"A mysterious man posted a contest and invited the top masters of various sects to gather at the edge of the Sinking Sand Valley. This sand valley is known as 'geese do not cross', even if a feather falls on the sand valley, it will sink......"

After talking about the major masters in the martial arts on the edge of the Shensha Valley were wiped out, and when the protagonist Xiaodou Sprouts appeared in the car decades later, Chen Jinzhi reacted and scolded with a smile: "You kid really want to trick me into catching the car?"

Chen Yunqiu waved his hand and denied: "Listen to my story, don't always doubt this and that." ”

So he continued.

Of course, this story is also what Chen Yunqiu has read before, it is an old book he found at his grandmother's house, and the cover has been removed, but both the plot and the story logic can be regarded as first-class.

The protagonist drives into the rivers and lakes and stops several villain plots. Along the way, he met his sweetheart, and there were brothers who were like-minded, and they worked together to defeat the villain.

It's a pity that in the end, the protagonist discovers that his good brother is the villain's subordinate, and another good brother is misunderstood by him and is injured.

......

In the end, the protagonist relied on his own pre-natal skills to die with the villain in the Valley of the Sinking Sand.

looked at the protagonist, who was both a sweetheart, and later found out that it was his own brother, who gradually fell into the Shensha Valley, and the heroine also walked into the Shensha Valley step by step.

Hey, it seems a bit old-fashioned to look like this, Chen Yunqiu secretly pondered in his heart.

"Why don't other people save the protagonist?" Zu Li asked.

"Uncle Chen, what do you think?" Chen Yunqiu didn't answer, wanting to see what Chen Jinzhi thought.

"Maybe they're afraid that the Sand Valley will trap them themselves, right?" Chen Jinzhi cautiously put forward his opinion. The first few times he put forward his ideas, Chen Yunqiu would look at him with an expression of "there are such pure people in the world", which made him a little less confident.

"It may be that there is a reason," Chen Yunqiu did not deny Chen Jianxian's point of view, "It may also be that they don't want to save a proper number one in the world and come out to press themselves, after all, everyone wants to be the first in the world." ”

"And the villain is also dead, they don't have to worry about no one can't beat the villain. Qu Zhuyun, who was roasting birds next to him, added.

"Hey, Xiaozhu, it turns out that you are also a conspiracy theory, I thought I was the only one here who was a guy with a dark heart. Chen Yunqiu was a little surprised, this was the first time Qu Zhuyun expressed his opinion.

"But this is all our speculation, maybe they are really afraid of death, or they think that the protagonist has been stabbed and cannot be saved. Chen Yunqiu stood up, patted the ashes, and summed up with a smile.

"In short, the car ride is very promising. ”

"So you're still trying to trick me into catching a car, aren't you?"

"Uncle Chen, just try..."

"Eh, it smells so good. ”

Everyone looked up at the outsiders who were making a noise, and there was an uninvited guest.
