Cultivating immortality is going against the grain

Seeing the two of them, he waved his Dabao and said impatiently, "Didn't you say you want to go through the Mauve Forest? This is all desert, and there are woods there?"

Wu Fengjiao and Mo Di looked at each other. Wu Fengjiao shook his head and said, "I don't know...why is it a desert!"

"Haha... this is indeed Maoweilin, but there is no weed in Maoweilin, only sand!"

The three of them looked sideways and saw that it was an old man who spoke, and a young girl with him stood beside him.

Hui Dabao didn't want to communicate with other people, because these people who smuggled into the Xiyi Empire were by no means good people. However, the old man in front of him had a kind face, and he did not look like a vicious person, and his guard was relaxed. He came down and asked, "Old man, why is this place called Maowelin?"

The old man smiled and said, "It is rumored that when there were no horsemen, it was a narrow escape to cross this desert. Many people died in the desert, but there were also many people who succeeded in crossing. According to them, they almost died here, but... At the last moment of their lives, they suddenly found themselves in a dense oasis of vitriol, where they had a beautiful sleep. When they woke up, they had reached the border of the Xiyi Empire. Although it was a bit fantasy, in order to be able to cross There is good luck in the desert, so this desert was named 'Maoweilin'!"

"So that's it. Thank you for your advice, old man!" He waved his Dabao and bowed his hands in salute.

The old man smiled and said, "You're welcome, little brother. I think you are very kind. I hope you can take care of us both during the journey. I am very grateful!"

Hui Dabao saw that the old man's back was a little rickety and his body was very thin. The girl beside him kept lowering her head and supporting him, looking very shy, just like an ordinary grandfather and grandson, and he suddenly felt compassion in his heart. heart of.

The grandfather and grandson don't look like bad people at all. Maybe they are in trouble so they passed through Mauve Forest. It doesn't hurt to look after them on the way!

So, Hui Dabao nodded and said, "Old man, this desert is very dangerous, we should take care of each other!"

"Hui Dabao...you need to focus on our sisters, we are spending money on you!" Wu Fengjiao suddenly shouted loudly.

Hui Dabao said, "I didn't say I wouldn't take care of you...it's just...the two of them are older and younger. I wanted to take the opportunity..."

Wu Fengjiao said, "It's not by the way...you don't have time to yourself in Maoweilin...you can only stay with our sisters!"

Hui Dabao said angrily, "Why do you have no sympathy at all...I..." Before he finished speaking, Boss Ma's voice came from not far away, "Don't waste time, hurry up and set off!"

Hui Dabao turned around and saw Boss Ma's sharp eyes staring at them, so he put aside his argument with Wu Fengjiao for the time being and turned around and headed forward.

The team finally set off towards the depths of the desert, but everyone seemed to have their own thoughts. Except for the seven brothers from the Ma family who gathered together, everyone else kept a certain distance and their eyes were full of defensiveness.

Of course Hui Dabao didn't want to have too much contact with these people of unknown origin, so he walked alone at the end of the team, but he was also slightly closer to the two sisters Wu Fengjiao and Mo Di. After all, he took money from people and did things for them. However, he didn't expect to be so uncomfortable in the desert. The air was very dry, and there was wind and sand blowing from time to time, which kept him from opening his eyes. Fortunately, the weather was gray today and there was no scorching sun. Otherwise, his body would have been sticky. Tired of it.

However, as the journey progressed, Hui Dabao had to have fun and enjoy the scenery in the desert. Originally, he thought that the desert was full of sand, but he did not expect that there were some needle-shaped green grass along the way, and there were some scorpions and mice. Living things made him feel more novel.

He didn’t know how long he had been walking, but Hui Dabao was already thirsty and exhausted. He wondered: Should we keep walking out of the desert without resting?

Unexpectedly, as soon as he had this idea, Boss Ma's voice came from the front, "Take a rest ahead!"

When he heard that he could rest, he let out a long sigh of relief and squinted his eyes to look ahead. He saw a row of low hills not far away, which seemed to be a good place to rest. He quickly walked over.

Everyone came to the foot of the unsightly hill that was eroded by the wind and sand. They each found a place to rest. They ran to a shady place with their big treasures and sat down. Sitting down was not enough, so they lay down directly. They said no. Out of comfort.

However, not long after, his strong thirst made him restless. He sat up again and looked around to see if there was any water source. Unexpectedly, he actually discovered it. He saw something under the shade of a hill not far away. There is a small patch of weeds, and under the weeds is a clear puddle. At this time, two people are kneeling in the puddle, and they seem to be drinking water.

He got up with a wave of power and ran towards the puddle. When he got close to the puddle, he realized that the two people were the old man and his granddaughter. The old man and the girl had wet faces, as if they had just finished drinking water, and they looked very refreshed. When they saw Dabao coming over, they smiled at him.

Hui Dabao nodded politely in response, then couldn't wait to kneel down in the puddle, holding the water in both hands and about to drink. At this moment, the old man next to him suddenly shouted, "No!"

Hui Dabao raised his head in confusion and said, "Old man, what's wrong?"

The old man said solemnly, "Little brother, you can't drink this water. Drinking it will kill you!"

Hua Dabao was startled, looked down at the water, and said suspiciously, "Old man, this water is very clear, it's okay!"

The old man said, "Little brother, you don't know that there are very few water sources in the desert. Therefore, wherever there is water, all kinds of living creatures will be attracted to drink the water. There are many poisons in it. Even though the water is very clear, it is poisonous." Very, it is a trivial matter to have diarrhea after drinking it, and it is very likely to kill you on the spot, so it is okay to wash your face, but absolutely not to drink it!"

Hui Dabao lowered his head and glanced at the water in his hand, reluctant to let it go. He sat down on the ground in frustration and said, "Damn it, if I don't get poisoned to death, I will die of thirst!"

The old man smiled and said, "Don't worry, little brother, look over there!"

"what?"

Hui Dabao followed the old man's finger and looked back, and found that the Ma brothers seemed to be handing out things to everyone!

"Water bag!"

Hui Dabao jumped up happily.

The old man smiled and said, "Haha, little brother, please have some water!"

Hui Dabao said excitedly, "Damn it, there are 100 taels of spiritual stones, old man, let's go over there quickly, we're almost dying of thirst!"

"Okay, let's go!"

When he waved Dabao over, everyone else had already received the water bag. When Ma Laosan saw him coming, he threw the water bag directly to him and said, "Boy, I promised you in advance that this is a day's water, and it will be gone after you drink it. If you want to drink it, it will cost ten taels of silver, don’t blame me for not reminding you!”

Hui Dabao took the water bag and weighed it. It was just a ladle of water, which was not even enough for him to eat. However, after taking a look at Ma Laosan's arrogant expression, he thought there must be no room for negotiation, so he didn't talk to him more. After saying that, he silently ran to the shade with the water bag and started drinking.
