"It's so boring, nothing happens. Hua Susu straightened her neck and looked out the window, wishing for a fight on the street.

Everything is normal in the town, nothing happens, and the people who come and go on the streets seem peaceful and relaxed.

"It's boring. Liu Qingyun sighed, remembering the stimulation of choking wine rushing into his stomach when he drank bad wine for the first time three days ago. In the past three days, he has been tired of drinking all the wine, eating all the dishes, and seeing the town of Qiongta, which is unchanged every day.

"If it's so boring, why are you still here?" Hua Susu pouted.

After three days of getting along, she still didn't dare to look at Shen Yi directly. She has always wanted to see this Jiangnan hero, and she has heard many rumors about him, both praise and scolding...... Hearing that Liu Qingyun was going to find Shen Yi, she secretly followed behind, but who knew that along the way, she actually followed from Qingtian Mansion to this remote desert town. When she saw Shen Yi himself, she still didn't know what kind of person he was. He is different from ordinary people in the rivers and lakes, maybe because he joined the officialdom, but he is not like a person in the officialdom, what kind of person is he?

She secretly glanced at Shen Yi, feeling that his bright eyes were not as quiet as they looked, and there seemed to be great enthusiasm hidden inside, as well as endless sorrow, pity and helplessness.

Liu Qingyun sighed heavily and pointed at Shen Yi, "We can't leave, his business hasn't been done, and the people who are waiting haven't come yet." ”

Hua Susu also sighed heavily, looked at the street outside the window, and thought to herself: "Exploring the rivers and lakes is not as interesting and exciting as the legend says." ”

She looked at it and found something very unusual, every household was seriously changing the silk scarves and water in the shrine in front of the door, and putting new wine and fresh fruit on the table. In this desert land, fresh fruits are more precious than water, and the inhabitants themselves are reluctant to eat them, so they do not hesitate to put them out and offer them to unknown gods and Buddhas. Looking at Liuhuai again, he is usually lazy and lazy, but now he is also diligent, and he seriously changed the silk scarf and water for the shrine in front of the inn, and carefully cleaned the room in front of the door.

Not only did Liuhuai become diligent, but from early in the morning, even Wu San rarely saw a figure, and finally saw it, and asked him, saying that he was busy cleaning up the guest room, because there was going to be a real distinguished guest.

Finally looking forward to something happening, Hua Susu immediately lifted his spirits, ran in and out to inquire, sat back at the table panting, his face was full of mystery, and said, "What do you guess is going to happen?"

Liu Qingyun glanced at her and said, "You've been busy for so long, aren't you just going to inquire about this? He was also curious to know what was going on, but he wanted to appear to be very personable, and he was unwilling to inquire in person, just waiting for Hua Susu to tell the secret.

"If you want to know, go ask for yourself. Hua Susu glared back without showing weakness, and wanted to continue arguing with him, but looking at Shen Yi's calm face, he said obediently for some reason: "This town is going to have a festival, it should be said that it is going to be a sacrifice, I heard that the locals believe in a sect called the Moonlight Clan, and a big sacrifice is held at this time of year." The high priest of the Moonlight Clan personally came to preside over the practice, in addition to worshiping the gods and praying for the blessing of all living beings, he would also come to heal the sick and save people and help dredge the water conservancy......" Hua Susu suddenly stopped talking.

Liu Qingyun urged: "Why don't you say it?

Hua Susu ignored him, but looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Brother Shen, don't you think this is strange at all? In the Central Plains, I have never heard of such a sect as the Moonlight Clan. ”

Liu Qingyun also turned his head to look at Shen Yi and said, "Yes, you have been sitting here, not talking, and pretending to be omniscient, do you already know everything?"

"It's not that I'm going to make any weird appearance, I've been here a few days before you, and I've already inquired. Shen Yi said unhurriedly. In the first three days of his arrival, he had visited the entire town of Qiongta, and naturally he had already noticed the strange shrines enshrined in front of his house.

Hua Susu asked unconvinced: "Then what else do you know, except for what Fang just said, I can't find any more news." ”

Shen Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know much. It is said that at this time of year, there is a sandstorm in the desert, which is the largest sandstorm of the year. Qiongta Town, as well as several small towns and villages in the surrounding area, have been spared for many years thanks to the help of the Moonlight Clan, and perhaps it is because of this that the residents respect this Moonlight Clan so much and worship it as a god. ”

All three stopped talking, silently looking out the window as the inhabitants went about offering elaborate offerings to the shrine.

The sky above me was still clear, and the flowers and plants on the ground were luxuriant, so there was no sign of impending disaster. The three of them are all from the Central Plains, and they have never seen a sandstorm with their own eyes, nor do they know how terrible the sandstorm is, but they have all walked through the long yellow sand desert before coming to this town, although they cannot say that they have experienced life and death, but they also know the ruthlessness and cruelty of the desert. They can understand that in such a harsh living environment, no matter who can really resist the powerful forces of nature, they will definitely gain people's respect and awe.

All the street gates of the town of Qiongta have been cleaned, even the loess streets have been sprinkled with water, and people have gathered on both sides of the streets, their faces reverent, their eyes full of festive joy.

It was noon, as if suddenly rising from the ground, and a group of people appeared at the end of the desert. They walked all the way through the desert, through the wide open town gates, and onto the streets. Camels striding slowly with their heads up, as solemn as carrying gods and Buddhas. The knights on the camels were all in black scarves and robes, with golden ribbons on their heads, gold sashes around their waists, and short knives with golden scabbards. Only the one in the front is dressed differently. This is a woman, riding on the side of the high Luo Feng, wearing a snow-white dress, the skirt is long to the ground, the long sleeves cover her hands, and she is also wearing a snow-white silk scarf on her head, but she shows a face with good facial features. The wind blew, blowing the snow-white ribbon on her head, blowing her long hair like ink, and lining her beautiful smile, it was like a fairy who had walked from a mirage in the desert to the mortal world. The cheers and salutes of the inhabitants were also directed towards this woman, who turned out to be the high priest of the Moonlight Clan, whom they admired in their hearts.

Shen Yi and the other three also walked out and stood in front of the door of Wu San's inn to watch. Hua Susu was already dumbfounded, but he didn't expect that in this wild desert, there were such magnificent people, especially the high priest, even in the Central Plains, it was rare to see such a beautiful and elegant woman.

What Hua Susu saw was the appearance of a person, but Shen Yi and Liu Qingyun saw it differently.

Liu Qingyun whispered in Shen Yi's ear: "This person of the Moonlight Clan has a good martial arts. ”

Shen Yi nodded, and also said softly: "Yes, that high priest's martial arts are very high. ”

Liu Qingyun asked again, "This is the person you are waiting for?"

Shen Yi didn't speak, but just looked at the people of the Moonlight Clan with deep eyes.

The Moonlight Clan and his party stopped in front of Wu San's Inn, the high priest floated off the camel, his body was light, he walked closer, his eyes turned, and he swept over the face of Wu San who was waiting, and looked at Shen Yi and the other three one by one, and finally glanced at Shen Yi again, before he said to Wu San: "Shopkeeper Wu, are they all arranged?"

Wu San hurriedly said: "It's all arranged, it's still the old rule, the high priest, the patriarch and the two maids will stay in the villain's shop, and the others will be scattered in the residents' homes to rest." ”

It turns out that this sandstorm is unpredictable, although it can be estimated that it happens at this time of year, but no one knows the specific day of the occurrence, maybe today, maybe tomorrow, this moonlight clan can only come here early, help the townspeople prepare for various defenses in advance, and wait for the arrival of the sandstorm.
