Chapter 663: Disappointment Knocks Down the Door
He Meiyu said curiously: "What do you think they did in the past with Zongxin? Seeing that they are tired like this, you can know that there must be a lot of true qi in Zongxin's body now...... Do you think ...... Indecent. ”
He Meiyu slapped Zhao Kuangyin hard, and then turned to leave. She really didn't expect that her father-in-law would be able to think crookedly in this situation, Zong Xin is now seriously injured, and his whole body can't move, the demon and his party hugged him away of course to instill true qi to heal him, Zhao Kuangyin could actually think of that kind of thing...... It's just a beast of thought.
Zhao Kuangyin's mind was a little dirty, but it was nothing, he actually thought that he wanted to do the same thing. This is simply full of trust in himself, although this is also a different flavor once, and he is a little tempted after thinking about it, but how can he do this kind of thing that is inferior to beasts?
Zhao Kuangyin looked confused, could it be that he was wrong? But the performance of those three women ...... It's really like the exhaustion after instilling the truth. The most hateful thing is that Zong Xin has no love on his face, and a trace of tears flashed in the corners of his eyes, and when he thinks about it carefully, it seems that Zong Xin can't bear to work so hard for several wives, so he feels a little guilty.
Zhao Kuangyin turned his head and glanced at Zong Xin, who sighed helplessly and said, "Beast." ”
"I ......"
"Beasts. ”
"It's not...... I just ......"
"Beasts. ”
Zhao Kuangyin was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say. Anyway, this time I really wanted to be crooked, and I deserved to be scolded by the beast. It's just that in that situation at that time, everyone thought about it. If it's just to instill true qi, why take Zongxin away......? You can't instill true qi here, there are people around you who may distract them, originally it is not very dangerous to instill true qi, but for the sake of insurance, you still have to go to a quiet place where no one will disturb you.
Now that I think about it, everything is natural. Just at the time...... How could I have thought of going to such a place? Is I really a beast at heart?
"Alas~ go to sleep. ”
"Beasts also sleep......"
Zhao Kuangyin didn't fight back, because he made a mistake this time, which was a bit embarrassing. I hope they don't talk about it tomorrow, or they'll have to find a crack in the ground to get into.
..................
Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin recuperated for nearly half a month before they could barely get up and walk around, Zong Xin's recovery power is indeed better than Zhao Kuangyin, and he was able to take care of himself three days earlier than him.
In fact, this has nothing to do with skill, after the body is hollowed out, even the top master is no different from ordinary people. Zong Xin is because he has three wives who take turns to feed him true qi, so his recovery is naturally faster, and Zhao Kuangyin only has He Meiyu to deliver true qi to him, and he can't lose too much, because Zhao Kuangyin's body is very weak after being burned, and he can only deliver it little by little.
Although Cao Yuanzhong and Cao Yanjing's two uncles and nephews often came to visit Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin, they did not say anything. In fact, Cao Yuanzhong and Cao Yanjing are also afraid of being rejected by them, of course it doesn't matter if they are a little angry, but if they are rejected in person, it will be humiliating.
When transporting true qi, if Cao Yuanzhong and Cao Yuanjing suddenly had murderous intent and directly pushed with internal force, Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin would have to die. Until they fully trust these two people, they will not let them agree to such a request, even if they really want to help, but they must be guarded.
Of course, Cao Yuanzhong and Cao Yanjing were not busy or helpful, they were all delicious and drinkable, and they were all precious medicinal materials for Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin to replenish their bodies, so that they could recover as soon as possible.
After Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin could get out of bed and move, the group immediately set off to Yumen Pass, wanting to go out directly. Although everyone is very worried about the health of these two people, Zongxin is more worried about those merchants, and if it drags on like this, the summer will be almost over, and everyone in the desert knows that spring and autumn are too dangerous, and the wind and sand at that time are too big, but the summer and winter seasons are relatively calm.
In order to make it through the endless desert before autumn, they had to set off as soon as possible. In fact, Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin couldn't wait for a long time, they were bored lying on the bed, and after staying in the house for so long, they really had nothing else to do but chat. I really want to go outside to see the scenery, even if it is better everywhere.
After Zong Xin and his entourage recuperated for two more days, they drove away from Dunhuang in Shazhou and rushed to Yumen Pass. Although Yumen Pass is also in Shazhou, Dunhuang City is still dozens of miles away from Yumen Pass. Zongxin and his party drove five carriages, in addition to filling them with supplies, there were also many gifts from the locals and Cao Yuanzhong, these things were valuable goods outside the customs, so Zongxin put them all away.
The five wolves were left unattended, running on the desert, among the wild grass, feeling extremely comfortable. Because of his small white hair, he looks very chic when he runs. Zongxin watched Xiaobai run in a dashing manner from the carriage, and really wanted to ride it to have a good time, but now his body did not allow him to do so.
There were also two uncles and nephews in this line, Cao Yuanzhong and Cao Yanjing, who kept sending Zongxin to Yumen Pass before stopping. Judging from this point alone, Cao's uncle and nephew are quite interesting.
Coming to Yumen Pass, this was the most disappointing time in Zong Xin's life, because Yumen Pass was completely different from what he imagined, and he thought it was a very prosperous city, or a very spectacular city wall, but the result was ...... It's just a very ordinary earthen gate.
Zong Xin walked to the Yumen Pass and carefully looked at the entire structure of the Yumen Pass...... It is a slightly larger square mound, dozens of meters long and more than ten meters high, standing alone on the field full of yellow sand and gravel. It's the height of summer, and there are a lot of green dwarf shrubs nearby, and in some places there are swamps due to standing water, and a few poplars stand tall in the distance, and even if there is this mound, there is not much to see. This is the legendary Yumen Pass?
"Why should Qiang Di complain about the willows, the spring breeze does not pass the jade gate. Zong Xin said depressedly: "This TM is the Yumen Pass that I have been looking forward to for decades? ”
"The subordinates are here. ”X4
Zong Xin said angrily: "Prepare a shovel crowbar, close this jade gate and dismantle it for me." ”
The old one softened and said, "Master, this is a bit excessive...... I understand that you are angry, but we don't have a shovel crowbar, and that's what it is meant here, the more desolate it is, the more it can arouse the poet's emotion and express his feelings. By the way, it will take some time to demolish this place, and we will have to hurry. ”
The second child said: "Master, this is the name of the Jade Gate, is it true that the person named Ah Qiang must be very strong? The person named Ah Mei must be very beautiful? You are a high-ranking monk, and you can't make a subjective conclusion because of your name." ”
The third said: "Master, in fact, we are also very disappointed, but disappointed to disappoint, I didn't recruit you and didn't provoke you, why did we tear it down?" Of course, you are the master, if you insist on this, we can also do this job, just tear down the jade door and close your mood can be better? ”
Lao Sidao: "Master, the heart was unattainable in the past, the heart was unattainable now, and the heart was unattainable in the future......"
"Shut up, how can a few Khitans look like monks than me? Pretend to be a monk for a long time and think that he is really a monk?" Before the fourth child finished speaking, Zong Xin couldn't listen to this group of shameless Khitans, and used the words he taught him to count himself down? I really wanted to drag them all to Yumen Taili and beat them up a few times, but now my body doesn't allow it, I'm really afraid that they will resist......
Cao Yuanzhong said: "Master Zongxin, the people who saw Yumen Pass for the first time were disappointed, and this is also human nature. In fact, in the Tang Dynasty, Yumen Pass was still very prosperous, but in the past one or two hundred years, the Silk Road has declined, and there are no merchants from the Western Regions to do business here, and the original Yumen no longer exists. ”
"What jade gate?"
Cao Yuanzhong chuckled: "Our Cao clan has been in charge of Shazhou for a while, and we also know a little about the legend of Yumen. In fact, there was originally a jade gate here, so this pass is called the Jade Gate Pass. Of course, it is not a jade gate carved from a whole jade, but the city wall of Yumen Pass is inlaid with a lot of jade, so it is called Jade Gate. There is also a legend about this matter, thinking that there was a problem with the merchants who entered the customs to do business, and their camels would become seriously ill as soon as they entered the city, and no one knew what was going on. Later, a master told them that camels were infected with the evil spirit of the desert, so they would get sick when they entered the city, and it was very simple to solve this problem, as long as they were inlaid with a high-quality jade at the pass, they could get rid of the evil spirit. The merchant inlaid a piece of fine black jade in his baggage in the city gate, and sure enough, the camels in the caravan were completely healed and alive. Hence this tradition, but anyone who enters the city to do business, will be a fine jade stone inlaid on the city gate during this trip, so as to eliminate evil spirits. It is precisely because of this that there is a saying that jade can drive away evil spirits. It is not known whether jade can drive away evil spirits, but there was indeed such a jade gate in Yumen Pass at the beginning, but it was lost due to the war, the city gate was gone, and the jade on the door naturally disappeared without a trace. ”
"Is there such a thing? No wonder it's called Yumen Pass, and there is indeed a Yumen ......" Zong Xin said depressedly: "But now it's really desolate enough, and there is not even a single soldier." Didn't you say that there were generals in Yumen Pass?"
Cao Yuanzhong explained: "The troops are all in Yangguan, and the situation in Yangguan is much better. 60 miles away, every once in a while, someone will set off from Yangguan, patrol around to Yumen Pass, and then return the same way. In fact, the scenery of Yangguan is good, it is a small city, and there are clouds in ancient poems, persuade you to have a glass of wine, and there is no reason to go out of Yangguan in the west. Master Zongxin is interested in going to Yangguan to have a second look?"
Zongxin looked back at the others, and everyone looked disgusted, wondering why Zongxin was so interested in this kind of place. However, the distance of 60 miles is still too far, if Zongxin can ride a wolf, it won't take long for him to run back and forth, but he can't ride a wolf now, and it will take at least several hours to run by a carriage, which is too wasteful of time.
