Clothes as before

And Fu Lingyi, who caused all this, sat alone in the desert.

The starry sky in the desert has a vast and lonely magnificence.

Fu Lingyi quietly stared at the starry sky with his hands on his pillow, unconsciously calmed down.

After a long time, he stretched his arms and sat up, and took out a section of jet-black sandalwood from his bag. The carving knife in his hand was also as black as ink, which made his slender fingers white as jade.

Although it was different from what he had imagined, neither did he meet Yi Jueli, nor did he find the way back to Datang, but... no matter what, he had already said that he would give Chu Liuxiang and the others a gift, so he must do it.

After making the presents and seeing all the desert scenery, he went to the sea to find Chu Liuxiang and gave them the presents.

Then, look elsewhere.

I have seen the good mountains and rivers, and tasted the delicious food.

In a flash, another few days passed.

And Chu Liuxiang, who Fu Lingyi thought was happy at sea, was also in the desert at this time.

Not only Chu Liuxiang was there, but Hu Tiehua and Ji Bingyan were also there.

Hu Tiehua liked the sun since the first time he jumped off the small river behind his house to swim. Since then, as long as there is sunshine, he can't help taking off his clothes and basking in the sun. At the top of the Yellow Crane Tower, in Qingcheng, in Luofu, in the shade of Huashan Mountain, and on the top of Mount Tai, he has seen all kinds of suns, some are fierce like a bearded husband, some are gentle like a virgin, and some are confused and gray. Some are dim, like the eyes of an old man, while others are bright and colorful, like the face of a young girl.

But he had never seen such a sun.

Although it was the same sun, when the sun reached the desert, it suddenly became fierce and poisonous, as if it was going to burn the entire desert.

The sun was so hot that Hu Tiehua didn't even want to drink wine - now he just wanted to drink water to his heart's content.

But even this kind of wish is unattainable, because the dozen or so sheepskin bags they used to hold water have been pierced yesterday, and now the remaining water is barely enough for them to last for two days.

Without water, there is no enjoyment, no life, and all voices are silenced in the dry and poisonous wind of the desert.

Hu Tiehua finally couldn't take it anymore, he sat down on the ground: "Wait—"

Let's stop for a while!

The next second he jumped up immediately, the sand was already scorching hot under the sun.

Ji Bingyan looked at him coldly, as if he was watching a joke: "If you want to rest, you can stay here by yourself."

Chu Liuxiang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, we can take a good rest when we find the water source."

Hu Tiehua sighed for a long time. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said bitterly: "This damn desert, I never want to come here again."

Chu Liuxiang sighed in his heart, this was his first time in the Gobi Desert, and he had really seen the power of heaven and earth.

Human beings are nothing more than insignificant grains of sand between heaven and earth.

Several people walked in silence for a while.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of the piano faintly in the wind. It was clear and cold, and Hu Tiehua's original irritability was miraculously soothed a lot.

Hu Tiehua turned his head and looked around, but saw nothing, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly. Hu Tiehua suddenly wondered if he was dizzy from the sun and had auditory hallucinations?

So Hu Tiehua looked hesitantly and asked Chu Liuxiang and Ji Bingyan: "Did you hear anything?"

Chu Liuxiang nodded: "I heard, it's high mountains and flowing water."

Ji Bingyan also nodded.

This time Hu Tiehua was even Monk Zhang Er, confused: "There are still people playing the piano in this desert? Could it be that he has lost his mind because of the sun?"

Chu Liuxiang glanced at him disapprovingly: "It's a blessing for you and me to be able to hear the mountains and rivers in such a place." He looked into the distance again, with more smiles in his eyes, making himself laugh more at any time Smile, this is his way of doing things: "I don't know what kind of person has such leisure and elegance."

Ji Bingyan laughed suddenly, and the coldness turned into gentleness: "I only care about whether he has water."

When he said this, Hu Tiehua also smiled: "There should be, right? A person who is short of water should not have such leisure and elegance."

Hu Tiehua didn't feel irritable because of the expectation.

The sound of the zither was intermittent, but luckily it didn't stop for a long time. Chu Liuxiang and his party looked for the sound of the zither and first saw a dead tree.

After seeing the scene in front of him again, Hu Tiehua opened his mouth wide: "Chu Liuxiang, this person is really... leisurely and elegant."

There is actually a carriage under the dead tree. This carriage does not even have a carriage. It only uses a big umbrella to block out all the sunlight. It is so simple that you can see all the structures at a glance, but after looking at it, Hu Tiehua feels that this carriage is very Sophisticated and weird.

Those complicated patterns, the strange mechanism on the car board, and the horse made of wood.

What was more eye-catching was the young man in white sitting cross-legged, with long hair tied up high, phoenix eyes and straight nose. This was the first time Hu Tiehua had seen such a beautiful person.

Don't think about it and forget it.

Hu Tiehua suddenly thought of such a sentence, hey, it’s a bit inexplicable... Hu Tiehua rubbed his arms with aversion to cold, and said in a low voice as if asking himself: "Who is this person? Why haven't I heard of such a person in the desert? "

He has never heard of or seen a few people who can keep their clothes neat in the desert.

He bumped Chu Liuxiang with his elbow, and turned to ask Chu Liuxiang, who was quite knowledgeable: "Hey, old bug, do you know who he is?"

Chu Liuxiang said in a strange tone, "Of course I know."

He looked at the young man in white all the time, as if he wanted to see him to the core.

Chu Liuxiang's face and eyes were very strange, so strange that this was the first time Hu Tiehua and Ji Bingyan saw her.

Who is this young man?What's the relationship between Chu Liuxiang and him?

Hu Tiehua and Ji Bingyan looked at the young man in white with question marks.

The young man who had been sitting cross-legged gently put the guqin on his lap aside. He supported his head with one hand, his eyes were teasing, and his voice was also with a cold smile: "Chu Liuxiang, are you going to dig coal?"

Chu Liuxiang, are you digging coal?

Hu Tiehua blinked, then laughed suddenly: "This is the first time I've heard someone ask the famous Xiangshuai if he went to dig coal."

Ji Bingyan was more to the point, he looked at Chu Liuxiang up and down several times: "Don't you think other people's question is very reasonable?"

Not only have they not washed well since they came to the desert, they have not even changed their clothes. They really smell like coal diggers.

Hu Tiehua looked at Chu Liuxiang, then at Ji Bingyan, and finally at himself. Although he didn't want to admit it, he still wanted to say that they really looked like coal diggers.

Chu Liuxiang laughed and said, "It's much worse than digging coal." As he said, he jumped off the camel and walked towards Fu Lingyi.

Tucao returned to Tucao, seeing Chu Liuxiang's scruffy and haggard look, Fu Lingyi couldn't help frowning, he threw the herbal tea poured on the table to Chu Liuxiang with a wave of his hand.

Turning his gaze, he saw Hu Tiehua and Ji Bingyan who were following behind Chu Liuxiang. They were also sloppy and sweaty.

Fu Lingyi threw the two cups of tea at the two people casually.

These two people should be Chu Liuxiang's friends?Since it is a friend of a friend, it is also half a friend.

As for the cold and silent man who stood motionless not far away with a camel, his face was carved out of hemp stone, his eyes were gray, and he seemed to be blind?

So Fu Lingyi floated up, and handed a cup of herbal tea to the big man's hand without refusal. When he looked again, Fu Lingyi was sitting on the carriage again, still with the same indifferent look of supporting his head with one hand.

Hu Tiehua and Ji Bingyan were amazed by his lightness kung fu.

And Chu Liuxiang's eyes were more smiling. What he noticed was not how good Fu Lingyi's lightness skills were, but that he was increasingly discovering Fu Lingyi's tenderness and delicacy that was completely different from his appearance.

It's like a jar of wine. At the beginning, it is so strong that it can choke people's nose and tears, but after a long time, you can feel the gentleness and peace.

Chu Liuxiang faintly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with him. He always liked to observe Fu Lingyi. He was actually very curious about what the other party liked and disliked. smile.

After staying in the desert for a few days, Fu Lingyiyuan, who had seen the scenery of the desert, was a little bored. He was thinking of leaving the desert today, but he met Chu Liuxiang without realizing it.

So this is the fate between friends.

However, Fu Lingyi, who was originally in a good mood because of the reunion of friends, couldn't help but frowned after seeing the water hanging from the camel: "Chu Liuxiang, what's going on with you? Don't tell me that you didn't know anything before entering the desert." Not ready."

It's only now in the center of the desert, and Chu Liuxiang and the others only have one pot of water left.

Whether you persist until you discover an oasis or choose to leave the desert, a pot of water is never enough.

If he hadn't met him, and Chu Liuxiang and the others hadn't found a source of water... Even if they didn't die, they would have to shed a few layers of skin.

Fu Lingyi was surprised to find that when he said this, the man with a green beard and a pair of big black and bright eyes suddenly looked embarrassed.

"It's all my fault, I'm blind."

And the man beside him with cold and haughty brows said slowly: "You are not the only one who is blind, and you are not the only one who was fooled."

The two talked endlessly, Fu Lingyi looked at Chu Liuxiang again, his eyes were filled with: What's the matter?

Only then did Fu Lingyi understand from Chu Liuxiang's explanation why their water was only so low.

If you fail to save people, you will be killed instead.

Fu Lingyi, who expressed sympathy for the luck of several people, said very righteously: "It's okay, I have it."

The word faint, coupled with his indifferent expression, in short, so reliable that people want to hug their thighs.
