wind blowing wind

Even masters can't succeed.

Gu Xi's heart trembled when he heard the words, he closed his eyes, and finally said slowly, "Shifang, come out."

As soon as the words fell, a head suddenly appeared on the sand dune that he just jumped over, and gradually walked up to the top of the sand dune. It really was Huo Shifang in black.Using his lightness kung fu, he flew behind Gu Xi, but only stopped beside Wei Shengni and Song Yanchu instead of approaching Gu Xi. He knelt down and said, "My subordinate is not skilled in martial arts, please forgive me, Lord Hou."

Gu Xi didn't look back, but the cold voice that he hadn't seen for a long time made the corner of his heart feel like being hit, and his nose became sore.The hand holding the rope shook, and said: "You follow."

"Yes." Huo Shifang stood up, keeping a distance from Gu Xi.

He always remembered Gu Xi's order in his heart: he didn't want to see him again.

Hua Xiangrong saw the subtle emotions between Gu Xi and Shifang's words, and saw the sad expression on Gu Xi's face, so she was surprised: "Gu Lang, you... er, brother, I have nothing. Say hehehe..."

Gu Xi withdrew his gaze from staring at Hua Xiangrong, and then said, "Go on."

I know you don't know, and heartache doesn't know each other.

The body does not lead the heart, and the soul and dreams do not lead each other.

After walking for a few more days, the weather was fine and sunny, and we arrived at Yinhook Lake.

Indeed, as Shaying said, a lake curved like a silver hook suddenly appeared in the desolate desert, curved like a crescent moon, like a stunning red flower in the desert.There is also a little green embellishment by the lake. This Yinhook Lake is unique in the desert and has become a wonder.Business travelers often stop here, either to enjoy the cool greenery in the desert, or to drink a sip of spring water to cool off the heat.

Hua Xiangrong was so excited when she saw it, she turned her head and said to Gu Xi and the others: "Do you know, it is said that a couple of gods and immortals from the past came to the desert with mutual support, their mouths were extremely dry, and their lives seemed to be hanging by a thread... , the man couldn’t bear the death of his beloved woman, so he begged the gods and willingly sacrificed his life to save the woman. In the end, he turned into this silver hook lake to give the woman rain and dew.”

"It's such a touching legend." Gu Xi laughed.

So everyone got off their camels and came to drink water by Yingou Lake.The water of the lake is clear and cool, refreshing the heart and spleen, like the spring breeze turning into rain, relieving the dryness of the heart.

After Gu Xi finished drinking, he poured some lake water into the water bag.Turning around, he suddenly saw Huo Shifang standing motionless behind him.Seeing this, Huo Shifang knew he couldn't leave, so he lowered his head and knelt on the ground.

Seeing this, Gu Xi felt a throbbing pain in his heart, stepped forward and asked, "Is there a water bag?"

Huo Shifang paused and shook his head.

Gu Xi sighed helplessly, took out one from his waist, filled it with water, handed it to Huo Shifang, and said, "Take it."

Huo Shifang raised his head slightly, carefully took the water bag with both hands, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Lord Marquis."

Gu Xi's figure flickered a little, feeling tears were about to well up, but he held back, and asked tremblingly, "Why don't you leave?"

"The subordinates cannot leave Lord Hou alone."

"Don't you listen to Ben Hou's order?" Gu Xi's heart moved when he heard the words, but he still asked.

"Subordinates must protect Lord Hou."

Gu Xi suddenly didn't dare to continue asking, he was afraid that Huo Shifang would suddenly turn around and leave if he continued to ask.In fact, when he knew that Huo Shifang had been following him, he was so excited that he wanted to call him out, but he was also worried that he would change suddenly, so he just left without a sound.

What kind of heart is this person, or, he has no heart at all.

However, Wei Shengni and Song Yanchu began to reunite, and the atmosphere obviously eased.

"Tuhui, don't you want to fill the water?" Song Yanchu filled the water bag, and walked to the side where Wei Shengni didn't see any movement.

"I won't and I don't want to." Wei Shengni said generously, taking it for granted.

Song Yanchu was depressed again, if he ignored Shuhui all the way, he couldn't believe what the other party would be like, thinking of this, Song Yanchu felt relieved for a while.

"I'll help you." As Song Yanchu said, he took off Wei Shengni's water bag and ran to the lake.

Wei Shengni looked at Song Yanchu's thin back, and the corners of his mouth curled up gracefully.

The world is impermanent, and who can predict the unknown.

After walking for a few more days, they came to the Mute Desert.

This desert is one of the famous big deserts in the Western Regions, during which there are often strong winds and sandstorms, and sometimes even tornadoes. There is also a poem saying: "It is dangerous to walk through the desert during the day and night. The clouds are cloudy, the moon is dark, the wind is evil, and the sand is evil." corner.However, due to Sand Shadow's precise control over the changes in the wind and sand in recent days, and its advanced control skills, it has kept the road peaceful, even if there is a little wind occasionally, it will not be a big problem.

Sand Shadow deserves to be born in the Western Regions. She grew up in the vast yellow sand since she was a child, and knows the Mute Desert like her own backyard.

Everyone's daily itinerary is very well arranged, so they don't want to carry heavy thoughts like other treasure hunters. Although in order to keep hydrated, everyone tries to be as quiet as possible, but with the wind and sand blowing in the desert, they feel quite happy. Get comfortable.

Wei Shengni was afraid that the wind and sand would blow Song Yanchu, so when he got on the camel again, he asked Song Yanchu to sit on the camel facing him.

"Are Yan Chu sleepy?" Wei Shengni hugged Song Yanchu distressedly, and leaned Song Yanchu's whole body into his arms.

"A little bit." Song Yanchu nodded. After days of tossing through the desert, he didn't even notice that he was tired, and he fell asleep peacefully in Wei Shengni's arms without knowing it.

"Ah Ni's behavior towards Doctor Song along the way really made me speechless." Gu Xi came to Wei Shengni's side and kept tsk-tsk.

"Couldn't Xiao Yiqing be jealous?" Wei Shengni said happily.

"Obviously Ben Hou met Ah Ni first." Gu Xi looked at Wei Shengni with a reproachful face.

"Then I'll go back and make up for Xiao Yiqing." Wei Shengni joked in a good mood.

Suddenly the sand shadow in front paused, then turned around and said to the crowd: "It is estimated that there will be a sandstorm in the future, everyone should be prepared."

When everyone heard the words, they got up cautiously and tightened their reins.

But Gu Xi suddenly remembered Shifang who was still walking on foot, and couldn't help turning his head to look at him.At this time, for the first time in a long time, the two looked at each other.

Those eyes were still as dark as night, without any warmth, which made Gu Xi feel pain in his heart.

Gu Xi's lips and teeth parted slightly, as if speaking.

Huo Shifang immediately understood Gu Xi's meaning, took a step forward, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, don't worry, your subordinates grew up in the desert, and no matter how big the wind and sand are, they can protect themselves. You just need to be careful, Master Hou." .”

Gu Xi suddenly remembered that the Wuhuamen is in the desert, so Huo Shifang should also often walk through the desert, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

The Wuhuamen is in the desert...Suddenly a seemingly absurd thought flashed through Gu Xi's mind, but it disappeared quickly, and he couldn't catch it no matter how hard he tried.

Sure enough, as Sha Ying said, the wind became stronger and stronger soon after the group moved forward, and the yellow sand in front was also blowing towards their faces vigorously.Everyone covered themselves with coats, and the camel team also slowed down and walked forward hesitantly.

And the sand shadow in front of him was calm and unhurried, using his internal strength, his hands brushed the air in front of him like stroking, and he muttered softly, and in an instant, a circle of internal force appeared, and then it seemed to be covered by flames erupting from the sand shadow's body Above all, that is the unique combination of Li Yan Jue and Sand Control Art.

Suddenly, the direction of the wind in the air seemed to change. Although the violent sand was still fierce at the beginning, it then retreated to the two sides. It must have been caused by the sand shadow's control technique.

Gu Xi looked thoughtfully at the tricks of the sand shadow in front of him. He felt that this sand control skill seemed to be similar to his own formation method. If he could get inspiration from it, it would definitely be helpful in the Juannian Vortex later. .

Gradually, the wild sand was withdrawn on both sides by the sand shadow, and because the wind and sand were still roaring, the yellow sand piled up upwards, forming a sand wall standing on both sides, leaving a gentle road in the middle.

"Follow up, everyone, try to walk as fast as possible." Sand Shadow explained and glanced behind him, then took the lead and walked into the road in the middle of the sand wall, and the people behind followed one by one.

Walking on this road, there is quite a strange feeling.Looking at the high walls on both sides, it seems to be admiring a beautiful scenery, but it is actually a violent sandstorm, which is extremely dangerous.

Gu Xi was riding on the camel, but his eyes drifted backward unconsciously, and he looked forward with peace of mind after making sure that Huo Shifang was safe and sound.

On the other hand, Hua Xiangrong seemed to be used to this kind of scene, but he paid attention to Gu Xi's eyes. Seeing this, he understood a lot, but he didn't say a word.

Gu Xi's boundless eyes seemed to pass through many sand dunes, his eyes were about to penetrate, and his heart gradually surged with sadness.He didn't know that he had such a sad time today, and felt sad for Huo Shifang alone.

He has always been a passionate person, but in the end it is inevitable that he will be hurt.

****

After that occasional strong wind and sandstorm, the whole journey was smooth, and everyone's mood was also filled with joy.

After walking for about five or six days, I finally crossed the long Mute desert. Although everyone brought enough water and saved money on the way, they still had no water left and their mouths were dry.However, except for Song Yanchu, the others present are all martial arts practitioners, so it is not a serious problem except for a little dry mouth.

Wei Shengni still asked Song Yanchu to sit facing him. He hugged the slightly tired Song Yanchu, full of worry: "Yanchu, are you feeling bad?" If it weren't for him, Song Yanchu would never have come to this ghostly place. Suffering, thinking about this little life, I am very annoyed.

"I'm fine." Song Yanchu raised a weak smile and said comfortingly.

"I still have water in my water bag, Yan Chu, drink some." Wei Sheng shook his water bag inversely.

"You drank less on the way, so you need to drink more water." Song Yanchu seriously refused.

"
