Chapter 240: Wind and Sand

Here lay the houses quietly, and the smoke rose from the roofs, straight, not broken by the wind, and strangely enough, there was no wind and sand blowing here. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info everyone is very surprised, and they feel that Shangcang is indeed not thin on the people of Western Xia, but the king of Western Xia is not willing to defend this land, and he has to attack neighboring countries, what is going on.

These scenes, in Xiao Sheng's opinion, seem to have been experienced, as if they have been seen somewhere.

Sometimes I dream and dream about it, but this is a foreign country, so don't forget what you're going to do this time. Galle raised his head and said to Xiao Sheng: "Your Highness, there is a family in front, why don't we go and spend the night?"

Xiao Sheng didn't speak, looked at Tianyi, the Taoist nodded, Xiao Sheng said: "General Galle, it's okay for us to stay overnight, but we can't let them see our identity, so we need to disguise it, lest a magistrate report to the local officers and soldiers will come to arrest us." ”

After Xiao Sheng gave the order, Galle said: "It's okay, don't we have an invisibility cloak? Even if the officers and soldiers know, they don't know where we are." Afraid of what?"

"It's better to be cautious, we can be invisible, but what about the camels? We're going to have to rely on the camels to go back and pass through the desert again. Xiao Sheng reminded.

"What I said is that His Highness is still thoughtful. Galle said.

He knows very well that at some point, His Royal Highness sees farther, he is full of poetry and books, knowledgeable and reasonable, and then in the pursuit of truth, he is persevering, how to say, he has a unique ability in astronomy and geography, eighteen kinds of martial arts, and even mental arts, demon hunting, etc.

When the camels saw the green grass, they still held their heads high, as if they had not seen it, and they ignored the green grass, as if they did not want to be sure whether the grass existed.

It seems that camels do not disdain to eat grass, and are born to eat withered grass, bitter grass and thorny shrub leaves, and camels really like to live in sorrow, because they are more content with the status quo, and their movements are more soothing and chic, and of course they can live a long life.

Fortunately, they are all constantly moving, only exercise, they can live a long life, although slow, afraid of standing, they leisurely treat the external environment, no regrets, this is admirable.

Kobo likes it very much, and there will be good food and drink right away, which is really good, and walking in the wilderness and desert is really tiring! Riding a camel is good, but after less than an hour of excitement, it is not fun, at least the body has been worn to the ground, especially the buttocks, and you need to rest well, otherwise, you have to blister.

Whether we can enter the village or not, this is a question, Xiao Sheng said: "Master, you see, is it appropriate for us to enter the village now?"

Tianyi said: "It's not suitable. ”

When Hongfa heard their conversation, his heart was furious, and he quickly suggested, "Master, I think we have been in the wilderness for too long, and we should go to the village." We are young and can bear it, but I am afraid that the master is old, and I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it. ”

Tianyi smiled slightly and said: "Hongfa is very humane, yes, the teacher is old, but for the teacher to be strong, not for the teacher to brag, it is no problem to live for another five hundred years." ”

When Hongfa heard this, he stuck out his tongue, it seems that Tianyi Chang doesn't want to go to the village, at least for now, he has no plans to do so.

Xiao Sheng knew the intention of propagating the Dharma, he was thinking about how to eat good things, what he pursued was things that could be seen and touched, and he didn't even look at things that could not be seen or touched. This creates a limit in his observation and comprehension of things.

Look ahead there is a well, surrounded by stones, made of bricks, the stones are covered with moss, and next to it is a stone trough, very long, from a distance, it looks like a poplar that has fallen to the ground.

The trunk of the poplar tree was hollowed out, which was what the stone trough looked like, and it was obvious that Xiao Sheng could see at a glance what this stone trough was for.

The well is good, the water can also be seen, the strange thing is that there is no reel at the wellhead, and there is no rope, when he is confused, Xiao Sheng said: "This water is not far from the wellhead, you can use a rope to tie a wooden bucket to draw water." You've walked a little bit again, maybe you're thirsty, right?"

Kobo thinks that this highness is a bit of a mother-in-law, has he drunk enough water? Now that he has arrived next to the village, he has not yet entered the village? You must know that there must be beef and mutton waiting in the village, isn't it good to eat fresh meat and drink fresh soup? I just want to eat dry food and drink cold water, really!

Xiao Sheng said: "There is a village in front of us, but you can't go in first, because danger is everywhere. Besides, it's in enemy territory, don't forget. ”

As soon as Hongfa heard this, he immediately shut up, not daring to say any more, this junior brother sometimes thinks about the problem quite carefully, that's right, if he recklessly enters the village, it is indeed a little reckless, and he eats beef and mutton of unknown origin and is poisoned, what can he do?

The bluestone at the mouth of the well has already shown how old this village is, and there is still water in the nest of the stone trough, and the edge of the stone trough is still wet, and someone may have come out to fetch water just now.

Xiao Sheng felt that there might be people coming to fetch water, maybe this was the water source of the village, and if you wanted to contact the people in the village, this was the best place. Everyone can't do without water every day, as long as you stay here and see the water coming out, you can learn about the situation in the village.

Xiao Sheng said his thoughts to Tianyi, and Tianyi said: "Well, your idea is right, and Poor Dao also has this meaning." If we all go to the village at once, I am afraid that it will arouse the suspicion of the villagers, or panic, and maybe we will startle the snake and leak the rumors, and we will fall into passivity. ”

At this time, there was more smoke in the village, there was smoke, there was going to be someone who came to fetch water, sure enough, there was a group of girls floating over, wearing long skirts, looking more handsome, with an excellent figure, difficult to find in the world, with a ruddy face, black hair, wearing jewelry, looking like small beads made of agate and Hetian jade, very beautiful.

The girls looked very embarrassed when they saw Xiao Sheng and their gang, and couldn't help laughing, Gesang appeared at this time, she was a little unhappy, but those girls felt a little relieved when they saw her.

They were chirping, like a flock of birds in the woods, laughing, talking, as if there was no trouble, no danger, the village was like a spring in the desert, very quiet, very sweet, and one of them said, "Distinguished guests from afar, do you need our help?"

They spoke in the local language, Tianyi Chang didn't understand, but he understood her heart, and knew that she was kind enough to help them, but the Taoist chief was not convenient to speak, so he gave Xiao Sheng a hint, and Xiao Sheng said, "We need help." ”

The woman said, "We are very willing to serve you, but what do you need?"

Xiao Sheng said: "We need to drink some water, not only but the camels we ride also need to drink enough water. ”

"Rest assured, our wells, with plenty of water, are guaranteed to keep you full, not only for you, but also for your camels. The woman said.

When she said this, everyone thought that this girl was really sensible, she seemed to be very kind, no matter how she looked at it, she didn't look like a person from the enemy country of Western Xia, the king of Western Xia was brutal, but the people of Western Xia were not like this, it was really incredible.
