Chapter 13: Desert Wolves
The most beautiful time in the desert is the sunset, the fiery red with the sunset, extraordinarily beautiful; sitting alone on the sand dunes, only listening to the whining wind, as if isolated from the world, casually holding a handful of fine sand, slowly lifting it into the air, is also a kind of scenery. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
He has been sitting alone in the setting sun for several years, he is not for the rugged beauty of the desert, nor is he as delicate as the poet; he has come to the desert for only one thing, and he has been waiting for ten years for a thing -- the fire crystal flower, which is said to be a good medicine that can cure any eye disease, and it is said that this medicine will only bloom once in ten years; his lover is blind because of him, as long as he can cure her eyes, let alone ten years, even twenty years, thirty years he will wait.
The days in the desert are bitter, there is no water, no food, and the temperature is very different, but he is not afraid, as long as he is with his lover, he is not afraid of no matter how difficult it is, not to mention his brothers, the desert wolves, a group of prisoners who have been assigned by the imperial court.
"Big brother, I'm here to watch the sunset again, let's take a rest, let's take a sip of water." The unkempt, ragged man walked up to the man with a bag of water.
"Xiaoyu, you don't understand, the sunset is the most beautiful view, you look at the long figure falling on the sand dunes and reflecting the distance. The man said. This person is about forty years old, his hair has been dry and white, his sword eyebrows are wide, his nose is high, his eyes are full of heroics, but they are full of vicissitudes, his face has been tanned for a long time in the desert, and his torn clothes cannot cover his strong physique.
"I don't understand, I'm not as knowledgeable as my eldest brother, I have been dependent on each other with my brother Xiaoyun since I was a child, only less than one acre of land has to pay the rent of the imperial court, I have to pay the rent of the king, there is rent everywhere is tax, we can't even afford to eat, so we stole a bag of imperial grain to eat when we were hungry, and we were distributed, fortunately you saved our brother. Xiaoyu said.
"The court is in turmoil, why is it always the people who suffer!" the man said, and suddenly asked, "Is the fire crystal flower blooming well?"
Xiaoyu was overjoyed when he heard this: "Very good, Xiaoyun and I take care of it carefully every day, the fire crystal flower seems to have bloomed flower bones, I guess it will open in a few days, and then my sister-in-law's illness will be cured." ”
The man was also proud: "Qianqian's eyes can finally see things, by the way, where did Leng Feng and Leng Yu go?"
"They went to look for food, to see if they could bring a snake or a few wolves, and you told us not to rob the house, and our days will be miserable, and it will be difficult to find some food. Xiaoyu said.
"I've wronged you!" the man laughed.
"What are you talking about, if the four of us hadn't been rescued by you and your sister-in-law, we would have been sent to the border to fight and die, or we would have been tortured to death by those solutions on the road, we are brothers, how can we say something extraordinary! By the way, Brother Meng, I heard that you used to have a very high martial arts in the Central Plains, can you tell us about it, the desert is so boring, just try to have a good time and relieve your boredom!" Xiaoyu said with a smile, he laughed so innocently.
"Who did you listen to me say that my martial arts are very high?"
"Sister-in-law, she talks to us every day, and she talks to us about your defeat of the Holy Fire Hall, and your defeat of the four masters of the Jin Kingdom, and she talks about it every day. “
That man was Meng Yunfei, but he wasn't anymore. He knew that Meng Qianqian was blind, she couldn't see anything, and the only courage she had to survive was his glorious memories of those years, and the love he had been giving her.
He owed her so much.
"Leng Feng and Leng Yu are back, big brother, they brought back a bunch of food, as well as water, and one person. Xiaoyu shouted.
Meng Yunfei hurriedly jumped up and looked for the direction of the sound, but saw a person standing next to Leng Feng and Leng Yu, a man of about thirty years old, medium stature, thick eyebrows and wide mouth, he was basically impossible to find in the crowd, the only difference was that his eyes were blazing, and his waist spanned a short sword of one or two feet.
"Who are you?" Meng Yunfei asked.
"I'm the one who came to find someone. The man replied.
"Who are you looking for?" Meng Yunfei continued.
"Big brother, he is our benefactor, I didn't hit anything but I ran into him, he gave us a lot of things, you see, there is beef jerky, there is water, and there are cakes, I haven't eaten these for a long time. "The cold wind rushed.
"Since you are a benefactor, hurry up and prepare meals for others and thank them. "Dream Cloud Flying.
"No, I just want to ask if you can see a man with a sword leading a blind girl. The man asked.
"Nope. Meng Yunfei replied.
Then he took his leave. The man turned and walked away.
"Big brother, he won't be looking for you. Leng Yu asked.
"I don't know this person, there's no way I'm looking for him. If it's really looking for me, then it's my enemy!" Meng Yunfei said.
"If it's really the eldest brother's enemy, then it's better for us to do it tonight!" Xiao Yu said, gesticulating a decapitation gesture as he spoke.
"No, we just don't let him find it, don't hurt anyone anymore! "Dream Cloud Flying.
"Well, what the eldest brother says, we will do what we do. Leng Yu and the other three said in unison.
Leng Xiaoyun walked aimlessly in the desert, this was the second time in his life that he set foot on the desert, the first time was when he was on the death squad, he went to hunt down a Jin general, chased into the desert; the desert is terrible, it will make you despair, it will wear down your willpower, and slowly torture you to death; the desert is lovely, because there is no strife here, there is no deceit, you only need your simplicity, you can live here.
The sky is getting darker, the clouds are overpowering, and the sun is quietly slipping away, getting darker and darker, and the darkness is terrible! The cold howling cloud knows that a storm is coming, and storms are very common in the desert, and once they hang up, they will be dark, and you will lose your way and even die! He must find a place to settle down immediately, or he will be buried under the sand, and he will never be able to get out.
He tapped the sand dunes and ran in the desert as if flying, but unfortunately the desert seemed to be forever endless, and the wind swept everything fiercely with the sand, he knew that there was no way to avoid it, so he quickly drew out his soul drinking sword and stabbed it into the sky, covered his head with his clothes, and rushed to a high point of sand dunes.
The storm destroyed everything, and it slowly subsided in about an hour.
"There's a sword here!" a man drew his sword on a tall sand dune.
"And a hand, no, it's a person. ”
When Leng Xiaoyun woke up, he was lying in a small room, a young man of about twenty-five or sixteen years old, unkempt and ragged, but he smiled so innocently and brightly.
"You're awake, there's water here for you to drink, I'm going to find my eldest brother and them. The young man said.
"Where is this?"
"Desert. Rest well, you want to get out of the desert, and we'll take you out tomorrow!" said the man, and went out.
Leng Xiaoyun stood up and looked out, a small oasis appeared in front of him, next to it were patches of cacti, and there were two huts at the end of the oasis, standing there alone.
