Chapter 124: Desert Steppe
After swimming to the shore, they hurriedly lit a fire to keep warm, and immediately went to the woods by the lake to hunt for food. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In the evening, a rich smell of meat came from the fire, and a pot was made into a simple barbecue grill, on which a rabbit was roasting, and the fragrance wafted from it.
Although there were no condiments to assist, the two who had been hungry for a long time still devoured it, and after eating, they were addicted.
Overhead, the stars twinkled in the night sky, the moonlight was gentle, and the fire in front of him was burning brightly, and there was a hint of warmth.
Yu Muyan quietly leaned on her shoulder, staring at the firelight in a daze.
"Big brother, my mother is gone, Tianshan is gone, where can we go from tomorrow?" Yu Muyan asked lightly.
"Who said that the Tianshan Mountain is gone, as long as you are still alive, this Tianshan will never die!" replied firmly.
"But I can't avenge my mother and my sisters in the Tianshan Mountains at all. Thinking of everyone's death, Yu Muyan sighed with tears in her eyes.
"The right path is in the hearts of the people, and the wicked will surely have evil retribution!" said categorically.
"Will you help me?"
"Well, yes, definitely. ā
Yu Muyan gradually closed her eyes and fell asleep. In his sleep, he saw the tragic situation of his mother before her death, accompanied by Yang Mingjing and Chiyan Evil Ancestor laughing loudly and recklessly.
Yu Muyan sobbed softly and writhed her body uneasily.
Drinking a pot and sighing lightly, she reached out to hold Yu Muyan's hands, and finally she gradually calmed down.
There is one more poor man in this world, God, do you really have long eyes?
On the second day, after the two of them got up, they looked for their way down the mountain, thinking that they didn't know if the Chiyan Evil Ancestor and Yang Mingjing were still in the Tianshan Mountain, and in any case, they could only ensure their safety by leaving the vicinity of the Tianshan Mountain as soon as possible, after all, if they met the two of them again, they might not be as lucky as this time.
When they came to the town at the foot of the mountain, the two changed into a set of clothes and brought a hat to hide people's eyes.
As they hurried through the streets, a pair of eyes were fixed on them in the corner.
On the corner of the street, a white carrier pigeon soared into the sky and flew eastward. As soon as he flew out of the city, a stone struck and hit the wings of the carrier pigeon.
Drink a pot to pick up the carrier pigeon, remove the envelope on the foot and open it to see that it is a message between Wudang disciples, the letter will be a pot and Yu Muyan's whereabouts are clearly stated, and the person who receives the letter will inform Yang Mingjing as soon as possible.
After drinking a pot of lamentation, he smiled at Yu Muyan and said: "Wudang is huge, there are its eyes and ears everywhere, and there is no place for you and me to live within the border, it seems that we can only wander the world." ā
Smiling, the two of them strode north, and after walking hundreds of miles, they could cross the frontier and enter a foreign land.
Gradually, the two climbed over snow-capped mountains, crossed deserts, and further north were the vast steppes ruled by the Turkic dynasty, but now they were in a vacuum between the Celestial Empire and the Turkic border, and the border between the desert and the steppe: the desert steppe.
The desert steppe is different from the beautiful and fertile grassland, but also different from the arid and barren desert, where some drought-tolerant plants grow sporadically on the land, and occasionally the shadow of some desert animals looms in the grass. But there was no sign of anyone.
The two of them have been walking for a few days and nights, thinking that they can usher in the rain-rich grassland when they get out of the desert, but they didn't expect that there is such a barren land in between, and gradually, the water prepared in advance has been exhausted, and the thirst in their mouths is unbearable at this time.
"Big brother, shouldn't we die of thirst in this deserted place?" Yu Muyan asked weakly while holding on to the shoulder of a pot.
I also had dry lips after drinking a pot, so I didn't want to say more, but I replied succinctly and clearly: "No, don't worry." ā
After another half a day, the two of them couldn't support it, so they chose a shady place and sat down to rest.
Drink a pot and walk to the side to pick the branches and leaves of an unknown plant, and forcibly squeeze out a little juice to drip into Yu Muyan's mouth, but as soon as it fell on her mouth, before she could quench the thirst in her throat, it was already sucked away by her dry lips. Licking her mouth, Yu Muyan could only imagine the taste of this nectar in her heart.
After drinking a pot and shaking his head helplessly, he set off to continue looking for something to quench his thirst.
At this moment, suddenly there was a long howl of an animal from a distance, which was the voice of an eagle.
After drinking a pot and standing up, I followed the prestige, only to see two huge falcons hovering in the sky in the distance, as if hunting some animal on the ground.
Due to the previous painful experience, a pot of drinking does not have the slightest impression of Eagle Quasi, so he got up and took a closer look.
After entering, the two realized that the prey of the falcon was a man, and the man was standing on the ground and pulling up his longbow and aiming at the air.
Watching the man pull the bow but not shoot for a long time, drink a pot and sigh, the bow and arrow pay attention to fast and accurate, so pulling the bow and consuming time is a big taboo for the bow bearer.
Sure enough, after a while, the man let go of the bowstring and shot the arrow, but at this time, the feather arrow had lost its due strength, and its speed was too slow, and it was easily avoided by the eagle in the air.
The first blow missed, and before the opponent could launch a second strike, Eagle Zhun immediately launched a counterattack.
With a long roar, one of the eagles swooped down and flew swiftly towards the man. Before the man's second feathered arrow was on the string, the eagle was already in front of him, and the sharp talons grabbed the longbow in the man's hand, the only weapon that could pose a threat to him.
The man hurriedly swung his longbow to resist, but how could the strength of an ordinary person be greater than that of a huge eagle. The moment the two collided, Eagle Quasi's claws had already torn off the bowstring, and then grabbed the man's arm, making the man instinctively let go, and the longbow had been taken away by Eagle Zun, high in the air, twisted it hard, and the longbow broke into two and fell to the ground.
With the pride of the victor, Eagle Quasi returned to the side of another Eagle Quasi in the sky.
Without the support of his weapon, the man did not lose the courage to run away, but pulled out a saber from his waist and protected it on his chest, ready to fight the eagle in hand-to-hand combat.
It seemed that a cold smile flashed across the faces of the two eagles, and another long howl, this time the two falcons attacked together, and their target was the person below who wanted to kill them without self-determination.
When the hunter becomes the prey, how do you feel at this time? Do you regret it? Are you afraid? Do you want to beg for mercy?
But it's too late, suffer death, stupid people, and pay the fatal price for your stupidity.
The wind whistled in the ears of the two eagles, and with the joy of victory, rushed to the food in front of them. (To be continued.) )
