Where is Our Agreement to be Each Other's Arch-Rivals?
Chapter 31 The Gobi Desert Reunion
Autumn in the wasteland Gobi is still scorching hot.
There is little shade here, and there is no wind for the time being, only the hot sand scorched by the sun, and faintly visible waves of light in the distance - but it is not water, but the air distorted by the hot ground .
Several horses were sunburned by the scorching sun, with their heads down and motionless, occasionally flicking their ears to drive away the flying insects around them.
In the shadow under a boulder, several knights sat in a row, shared some dry food, drank a couple of sips of water from their water bags, and fanned themselves with fans.
"This wasteland Gobi is really not a place for people to stay." One of them complained, "If we can't find the Juggernaut Tomb as soon as possible, I think a lot of people will be left here!"
"I don't know what the Juggernaut thought back then, that he would repair the tomb here." Another person echoed, "How is this place better than the Central Plains?"
Listening to the conversation between the two, an elderly man next to him touched his beard with a smile, and said: "This is why you don't understand. This wasteland is vast, and it looks the same everywhere, and there is that devil who eats people and doesn't spit out bones." City... If you want to find the tomb of the Sword Saint here, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. The Sword Saint set up his grave here at the beginning, and he definitely didn't want to be found."
A group of young knights immediately nodded in agreement.
The elder said again: "However, this matter was passed on by the grandson of the sword sage, and the pointing map of the sword sage's suspected tomb is also widely circulated in the martial arts, and there are many copies and reprints. I heard that Tengyun Pavilion and Qianfeng Villa also want to intervene in this matter, I'm afraid We still have to act quickly to get the upper hand!"
While speaking, there seemed to be a rumbling sound coming from a distance.
But after a while, the scattered sound of horseshoes approached, and it sounded as many as ten.
It wasn't until the horse team roared past on the faintly visible road in the Gobi that everyone could see clearly that the horse team was led by a pure white, vigorous and handsome horse.Immediately, the man was tall and slender, wearing a moon-white dress, to protect against wind and sand, he even wrapped his head and face with a silk scarf, revealing only a pair of black eyes shining like stars.
Behind this person were two fine horses, one red and one yellow. Immediately, a man and a woman covered their heads and faces, followed behind the leader without turning their eyes, and ran away along the next path.
After that came a group of solemn attendants who were well-trained in their actions, and they were not brave warriors at a glance.
The horse team quickly disappeared before everyone's eyes, and gradually turned into a mass of black spots at the junction between the next door and the sky.
In the afternoon in the wasteland, the sun is even hotter, it is really not a good time to rush.
But fortunately, this wasteland is not a dead land, between the arid gravel boulders, there are occasionally a few Haizi puddles.As long as there is a water source, the surrounding plants will grow tenaciously, and even grow into a small piece of sparse tree shade.
The horse team ran for about a stick of incense, and then came to a small oasis of a pond.The leader ordered to rest and recuperate, and the knights dismounted immediately to pack their bags, and led the horses to drink water and graze by the pond.
The guard stepped forward with a water bag, drew water from the pond, brought it back to a tree, and handed it to the young man in white clothes.
Gu Feidi took off the silk scarf on his head, took a sip from the water bag, and said, "If there is no mistake in the picture, we are still two days away from the big oasis in the hinterland of the wasteland. There is not much vegetation here, and the prey is also scarce. Is there enough dry food?"
The guard said: "As long as the water source is sufficient, dry food is enough for more than a month."
Gu Feidi nodded.After a while, he said again: "I just don't know if the sword saint's tomb is really in the oasis. I also don't know if the oasis in the picture really exists."
On the side, Xu Yunzhan also took off his veil, and said with a smile: "This desert is really a dead place, if the sword master really erected a tomb here, then he must have someone repair the tomb, so he will definitely find a place where he can survive. If it’s not an oasis, it’s a dark river or a canyon, we’re well prepared and we’ll find them one by one.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman brought back a water bag from the pond and handed it over: "Husband, drink some water."
Xu Yunzhan reached out to take the water bag and said, "You also rest, just let them do these things."
The woman waved her hand generously and said, "What's the matter?"
Gu Feidi looked at the two and suddenly smiled.
"Master Xu is also the same. You are newlyweds, and you are willing to let your husband and wife come with me to this deserted place." He laughed, "Why, isn't the old man in a hurry to hug his grandson?"
Xu Yunzhan raised his foot and lightly kicked Gu Feidi's leg, and laughed angrily: "You are laughing at me now, when you get married, I will definitely find a treasure map, and persuade Leader Gu to send you and your siblings out."
Gu Feidi sneered, but didn't answer.
Xu Yunzhan said: "Besides, Yingniang is also a heroine of the rivers and lakes, and her martial arts are not inferior to her aura. If she hadn't been unlucky at the beginning and didn't find the jade bell, she might have a fate with you and me as classmates in Xiaoyulou."
Gu Feidi smiled and said: "...Then she is like a spiritual charm, and she failed to become a teacher with you and me. Wouldn't she miss your marriage?"
Hearing this, Xu Yunzhan was stunned.
Huo Ying giggled a few times, and whispered something into Xu Yunzhan's ear, Xu Yunzhan smiled and shook his head with a relieved expression.
A group of people ate something under the tree and drank the horses. Seeing that the surrounding temperature was getting higher and higher, they decided to wait here until the afternoon was cooler before continuing their journey.
The guards were divided into several groups to guard the surroundings. Gu Feidi leaned against the tree trunk and closed his eyes to meditate, while Huo Ying rested on Xu Yunzhan's shoulder for lunch.Everyone was quiet, conserving their strength, and prepared to go as far as possible between dusk and night.
After resting for less than an hour, a guard suddenly came to report that a group of more than ten people was coming to the pond in the distance.It seems that the person's clothes look... It seems that a small group of members of the Demon Cult are chasing and killing a lone knight.
Surprised, Gu Feidi turned his head and exchanged glances with Xu Yunzhan.Xu Yunzhan pursed his lips, his face was a bit complicated and unspeakable.
Gu Fei said against the guard: "Don't take the initiative to cause trouble, just be on guard in secret. As for the knights who are hunted down by them, whether they can be saved or not... just wait and see what happens."
As he said that, he didn't get up, but raised his hand to rewrap the silk scarf, leaned against the tree trunk with his sword in his arms, and lowered his eyes, as if he was completely unmoved.
Seeing his appearance, Xu Yunzhan also put on the face scarf again, helped Huo Ying wrap up the veil again, and held his trembling fingertips into his palms, with a calm expression on his face.
Gu Feidi suddenly whispered: "It doesn't have to be him. But I'd rather be him."
Rumors of the Demon Cult in the Central Plains have always been bad, and they are indeed acting recklessly.If the person who comes is not good at fighting, it is not impossible to fight with just one look and one movement.
Their trip to go deep into the wilderness is actually considered to have broken into the territory of the Demon Cult.Although the wasteland is extremely vast, who would have thought that the Demon Church would not consider this a provocation from the Central Plains martial arts?Otherwise, why would the members of the Devil's Cult hunt down and kill a single knight here?
Just as the guards on this side formed a secret formation, a crimson figure on the other side rushed from a distance at an extremely fast speed.
When they got closer, the people by the pond discovered that the lightness kung fu performed by the visitor turned out to be the flower cherishing step unique to the Demon Cult.
"Young Pavilion Master, be careful, I'm afraid there may be fraud." A guard immediately woke up.
Gu Feidi narrowed his eyes slightly, and put his palm on the hilt of the sword beside him, ready to strike at any time.
The man in red is dressed in strong clothes, without any redundant decorations, his hair is cut so short that it sticks to his neck. If he hadn't been walking with care, he wouldn't have been able to tell that he came from the Demon Cult, where femininity and complicated decorations are the beauty.
He was extremely fast, throwing the "chasers" behind him far away, and approached the edge of the pond after a few ups and downs.But he didn't see him slowing down, but ran straight towards the pond, as if he would step on the water in the next second and rush into Gu Feidi's group.
The guards' complexions sank, and each of them made slight mistakes in their steps, and they were about to draw their swords to be on guard.
But I saw that person—indeed he stepped on the water—but fell into the pond with a plop, splashing a big splash, and disappeared.
Gu Feidi stood up suddenly, frowned and looked at the undulating ripples in the pond.
For a long time, no one appeared.
The horses by the pond were startled by the uninvited visitor just now, and moved away a little.Seeing that the water surface gradually calmed down, they walked towards the water's edge in twos and threes, lowered their heads and continued to drink water tentatively.
Suddenly, a figure emerged from the bank, surrounded by water splashes, and yelled loudly, scaring the horses into howls, turning their heads and running away.
The guards hurriedly dispatched several people to stop the horses to prevent them from running away with dry food and luggage.
Gu Feidi: ...
Xu Yunzhan: ...
Su Yan frightened the cavalry into confusion, and his face was very smug.
He raised his hand to push his wet hair back to his head, stood in the pond with his arms crossed, curled his lips, and smiled at the few people on the bank: "It's rare for someone in the Central Plains Wulin to come to the wasteland as a guest. Tell me, should I hold a banquet?" Hospitality? I think the horses just now are fat and strong, and the meat should be very delicious, so how about... use them for a banquet?"
——This is a line from the script, and Su Yang memorized it without any pressure, and he held his airs well, looking like a devilish son of a demon sect.
The visitor was not friendly, so the guards around Gu Feidi immediately drew their swords and put on a defensive posture.
Su Yang stood in the pond indifferently, with a smile on his lips.
The water on the shore was shallow, not reaching his waist. He was drenched all over, but he didn't look embarrassed when he fell into the water. On the contrary, he showed a trace of unusual charm.
A strand of hair was cut very short, pulled back by his fingers, and a few strands fell back, dripping water droplets, forming water marks on his cheeks and neck, reflecting the sun, which was extremely dazzling.
There was a small bright red mole in the corner of his slightly upturned eyes, and his lips were bright, and he still had that pretty face, but he didn't look feminine, on the contrary, he was extremely aggressive.
Xu Yunzhan subconsciously took half a step back, averting his gaze a little, not daring to look directly at Su Yan's face.
Gu Feidi stared at Su Yan.
The silk scarf covered his head and face, and in the shadow of the cloth, only a pair of eyes were exposed.His eyes were deep, and no emotion could be seen in them.
Su Yang tilted his head, feeling a little surprised.
These people from the Central Plains Wulin were not provoked?
Then what method should he use to provoke, injure, and capture the original knights by the pond, so as to attract Gu Feidi to come to rescue?
Do it directly?
Otherwise... if these knights from the Central Plains are discouraged and don't fight him, wouldn't the plot that finally got back on track collapse again?
Still have to be more provocative.
Su Yang pondered in his heart, and turned his head to see a snow-white horse standing beside the bank, who was dressed in a moon-white dress and had the most temperament like a leader.
He immediately smiled and said: "This white horse is so beautiful! It must be more delicious than those stupid horses just now! How about..."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, there was a shout among the guards: "Bold! How dare you covet Shaoge—"
"If you like it, I will give it to you."
Gu Feidi calmly interrupted the guard.
