Undying Curse Part 2

"Jiayuguan" is located in a pass. It should have followed the pace of the times and used technology to turn it into an oasis. However, because of human beings' lack of appreciation and insatiable greed, not only could they not change the surrounding desert, but instead experienced the baptism of wind and sand for more than [-] years. , Even the river that runs through it cannot be avoided, and it is flooded by yellow sand.

In the past ten years, both the local government and citizens have gradually moved away.

Due to being far away from the modern rhythm, the ethnic minorities who were left behind have returned to their most primitive appearance.

The SUV was driving on the bumpy road, and it took a long time to find a gas station with a simple appearance.

"Even if there is no development here, you can't just leave it alone, right?" Bai Jing complained while parking the car. Fortunately, the car is a hybrid of gasoline and electricity, and it can last for a few hours, but when it is all used up, it stops. She got out of the car and opened the fuel tank, and Ask the staff to also fill up the spare fuel tank in case of emergency.

A gust of wind swept past, Bai Jing squinted his eyes, looking at the desolation around him, he didn't expect that the land that was once known as "beautiful valley" would turn into what it is now, and it's the answer to the sentence.

Seeing the yellow sand passing by, Xuan Luo got out of the car and went to a convenience store to buy six scarves.

"What are you buying these for?" Qian Yan asked.

"I'll use it tomorrow." After paying the money, Xuan Luo turned around and asked, "Are you tired after sitting for so long?"

"My waist is a little sore." Qian Yan said as he moved his muscles and bones left and right, and the bones made a crisp sound, "When I usually work in the bureau, I have to exercise for an hour or two every day. If I relax, I guess my physical fitness will not meet the standard when I go back.”

Reflecting the sunlight through the window, Xuan Luo looked at her with the corners of her lips slightly raised.

"Okay, let's go to the bathroom and we'll set off. Do you want to find a restaurant and have lunch first?" Bai Jing came in with the receipt to pay, and said.

"Don't bother, we'll have lunch later, we've already made arrangements."

Bai Jing nodded, thinking about Xuanluo's arrangement along the way, not only was he pleasantly surprised, but there were also many unexpected things, so he didn't ask any more questions.After paying the payment, the group of people took a short rest and headed towards the destination of the trip, the desert known as the Sea of ​​Death, Taklamakan.

The wheels of the two SUVs are sweeping the sand and dust, and driving on the desert road is like sailing on the ocean. Because of the automatic driving, everyone in the car looks out the window at the yellow ocean under the boundless sky, which is so boundless.A shocking strange power was generated in an instant, and just looking at the Yellow Sea, he seemed so insignificant.

Xuan Luo looked at Qian Yan's focused gaze, and tilted his head, "Do you like it?"

Looking at each other, Qianyan nodded without hesitation, and finally understood why Xuanluo said that she liked the desert more than the sea.

This kind of landscape can be said to be seen once, and it will never be forgotten in a lifetime. The desert under the sun is like gold all over the ground, very dazzling, more like a wide golden ribbon winding the earth layer by layer, like extending from the Tianshan Mountains in the distance , connecting the land as one, and then meandering to the other end to disappear, and the desert road they were driving seemed to divide the whole world into two...

This situation is more than shocking! ?

Since it was driving automatically, the car stopped at a place where the GPS could not display, Bai Jing took out the GPS and handed it to Xuan Luo, "Are you sure we didn't go to the wrong place?"

"Don't trust technology in everything. There is a fork not far ahead. Tell Yinchuan to lead the way. We will follow him."

After Bai Jing took out the walkie-talkie to notify, he manually followed the SUV driven by Yinchuan towards a hidden path, to be exact, there was no road at all.

"I checked just now, and there is no fixed population living here, and I'm afraid there is even less now."

"You know the Internet very well, so you should know better. You can't trust all the information on the Internet. Maybe things are not complicated in themselves. It is the complexity of people's hearts that makes it complicated." Xuan Luo leaned on her chin, looking at the land she was familiar with. He said calmly, "The GPS didn't show it because the government didn't know about this road."

three people:"……"

After driving for about three or four hours, two SUVs drove into a hidden tribe. When the people here saw the square box, the running children stopped and stared curiously. After all, the most primitive tribe lived here. tribal life.

The car was parked outside the tribe. As soon as the group got out of the car, they ushered in the leader of the tribe. It was an old woman who was nearly 80 years old. Behind her were four young men, who were her descendants. They were all tall and strong. large.

Seeing Xuan Luo approaching from a distance, the leader immediately blushed and called softly, "Ayi."

"Grandma Mi, long time no see, how are you?" Xuan Luo walked over first, and reached out to support the old man, "I didn't want to bother you, but I'm really tired, so I can only come here to bother you."

"It's okay, it's okay, you can come... I'm happy..." Granny Mi couldn't hide her emotions, she glanced at the people behind her, showed a kind smile, and pulled Xuan Luo inside.

Hearing Granny Mi address Xuan Luo, the three of them looked at each other in unison.

Xuan Luo turned around and glanced at the three people standing on the same spot like stakes, and reminded: "Just tidy up the things and bring them here. We will not drive the car for the time being."

Several people said in unison: "Okay."

Those blushing children stared into Shui Ling's eyes, looked straight at these beautiful big sisters from different clans, and showed the most innocent and direct smiles.

Seeing this scene, Su Yang's heart softened instantly. He immediately took out the candies and chocolates he bought on the way from the trunk and distributed them to them one by one.

Bai Jing was picking out the most important clothes from the box and putting them in the backpack, and said with a smile, "Does Sister Su like children so much?"

Su Yang stretched out his hand and touched the bald boy in front of him, then looked at his own hand, probably sweating from running wildly just now, smiled and said: "It is said that people are inherently evil, but every time I see them With such a pure look in my eyes, I can hardly believe it, and even think about what changed everything."

"Human beings are complex existences, starting from subcutaneous fat, flesh and nerves, and finally bones and internal organs, everything can become a complex factor, and the purity of eyes now is because they have no desire."

Bai Jing's words were concise and straightforward, and she interpreted her understanding of people and things with her own professionalism, which made Su Yang listen heavily.

"Sister Su thinks what I said is wrong?"

"That's right, I can't refute it." Su Yang straightened up, took a deep breath of the dry and cold air here, and looked at the stone wall in the distance. It turned out that they were in a canyon in the desert. Cherish the purity that you have.”

Bai Jing finished packing his backpack, put the suitcase in the trunk, and said disapprovingly, "I don't think there's anything wrong with being complicated."

"How do you say that?"

"In my opinion, the complexity of people is innate. You can also describe it as an infectious disease. It's not that you are simple, pure, and pure. It's just sooner or later." Bai Jing put his backpack on his back and turned off the backup box, "In order not to be bullied, it is appropriate to be complicated, in my opinion, there is nothing wrong with it."

"Xiao Jing is indeed well-informed. I agree with this point of view."

"My point of view is fallacious on the side of Qianyan. You don't need to coax me specially." Bai Jing raised the corner of his mouth, "I also suffered a lot and was deceived. I exchanged my experience with blood and tears."

"Really?"

"Don't believe me, I also grew up at this stage." Bai Jing couldn't see the implication in Su Yang's smile, turned around and called, "Xiaoyan, hurry up, sister Su and I are going to starve to death .”

Su Yang just smiled and said nothing while standing there, but after thinking about what he said, his eyes naturally fell on Bai Jing's profile.

Regarding Bai Jing's childhood experience, he became more curious.

"Here we come." Qian Yan just packed up and closed the car door when Que Ying and Wu Kui held the two travel bags in their hands, and said, "I don't need to come by myself."

Que Ying smiled and said, "Yinchuan said, they have arranged a room for us. You, Ms. Su and Ms. Bai, go to eat first, and we can get these things." After finishing speaking, she turned and left without waiting for Qianyan's response. up.

Helplessly speaking, he looked at Yinchuan who was standing not far away, and asked as he walked in, "Why is that old lady called Xuanluo, Ayi?"

Yinchuan responded briefly: "Ayi uses the language here to describe it, which means the moon."

"moon?"

"This is Luomipo, a nomadic people that the master accidentally discovered. However, it was dry at that time and the place was isolated from the world, so he tried his best to bring water in from the other side of the valley, saving the lives of more than 100 people here, so the master She is the goddess of the moon in their minds." Yinchuan clearly expressed his curiosity about this place, and also knew that Xuanluo might not say these words at all, especially since his master always kept a low profile, so Yinchuan decided to say a few more words, "Recently Drought also began in the Nian River Valley, so the owner tried to find a new water source, in such a cruel environment as the desert, without water... it is equivalent to a doctor directly declaring death to a patient."

Su Yang and Bai Jing naturally heard these words, and while admiring them, they were a little worried about what to do if they couldn't find the water source, so Su Yang turned around and asked, "Have you found the water source?"

"The one billion won from Happy City is to find new water sources."

Qian Yan thought of what Xuan Luo said before, and his eyes lit up, "It turns out that the house is going to be built here?"

Yinchuan's always serious facial features rarely smiled when he heard this, "It's not just here, you'll know when you get home tomorrow."

Bai Jing raised her eyebrows, "Isn't this the home Xuan Luo mentioned?"

"Of course not."

Hearing this answer, the three of them all began to look forward to it, and wondered what Yinchuan's so-called "home" would look like.

Especially for Qianyan, since she left City Z, she has been approaching Xuanluo's world constantly, and has been discovering that this world is so rich, so colorful, so big...

If you are not careful, you will get lost.

The author has something to say: I wrote about the desert, my favorite place.

……

I have been to the desert closest to the imperial capital, called Kubuqi?forgotten……

At that time, it felt like the whole world was golden, and the point under my feet was so insignificant.

Many people will like the sea, but personally, I really prefer the desert.
