After Waking up Beside the Villain - Chapter 215
The North Desert is the North Desert.
It was the summer and autumn seasons of the Central Plains, but the wind was already blowing, and there was a little snow gradually floating between the thick and yellow land and the vast blue sky.
The wind twisted the gravel and swept it in all directions. Looking at the sky in the distance, it is all dusty and dim, and the desolation is solidified.
“Uncle Chu, Daddy said we are going to Pingyuan Town soon!”
A carriage in the center of the caravan, the door opened a gap, a thick felt curtain was lifted, and a little girl wrapped in fluffy was wearing a tiger-headed hat. He got into the car and said excitedly.
The interior of the car is dim.
A ray of light leaking from the felt curtain vaguely outlines the many debris placed around, and the upright figure sitting next to the wall of the carriage is opposite the debris.
“Uncle Chu, have you been to Pingyuan Town?”
Qiu’er heard from Uncle Wen, how delicious there are in town, and weird people with golden hair and green eyes… Uncle Chu, have you ever seen such a weird person?”
Listening to the movement around her, Chu Yunsheng, who was meditating cross-legged to recuperate her internal injuries, exhaled and closed her energy, and opened her eyes.
At this time, he is completely different from the cold beauty who disguised as a woman when he was in Beijing, and the bereaved dog on Yanxia Mountain.
He removed the shrinkage and disguise, and returned to his original appearance, wearing dark blue linen clothes, with double knives on his waist, wooden branches in his hair, and dressed in a simple and unadorned fashion. Ordinary people walking in the rivers and lakes, if they are not outstanding in temperament and appearance, if they are thrown into the crowd, they are inconspicuous, like water into the sea.
“Blonde hair and blue eyes, Xiao Qiuer is talking about people from the Western Regions, Uncle Chu has never seen it before.”
Chu Yunsheng looked at the little girl, and said lightly: “Pingyuan Town is the last market town outside Langgu Pass, which leads to the northwest exotic land, and it is adjacent to the North Desert in the north and the Western Regions in the south. There are all kinds of food and customs, and when it arrives, Xiao Qiu’er can enjoy it.”
The little girl pursed her lips and smiled, fantasizing for a while, with a longing expression on her face.
But then, she suddenly looked dark and a little sad.
After hesitating for a long time, she whispered: “Uncle Chu, yesterday at Langgu Pass, I heard Uncle Xie and my father say… that you will be separated from us when you arrive at Pingyuan Town. , this… is this true?”
Chu Yunsheng could see the deep reluctance from the little girl’s expression.
He sighed slightly in his heart, raised his hand and touched her little head, which was tightly covered by a tiger hat, and nodded: “It’s true. See you for yourself.”
The little girl opened her eyes wide, and there seemed to be a flash of water in her eyes, but in the end nothing fell.
She nodded sullenly, pressed her tiger hat, and swiftly crawled over the debris, and went out of the car without a word.
Chu Yunsheng lowered his eyes and took out two small wooden pendants from his sleeves, a short knife and a long sword.
He raised his hand and hung the pendant on the wooden lattice on the wall of the carriage as a small gift for the little girl.
Calculate carefully, from the time he and Xie Chengyun were rescued by the Qiujia caravan at the foot of Yanxia Mountain, to the time when they entered the northwest with the caravan and came to the junction of Daxia and Beimo. Gu Guan had already spent more than half a month.
When they were first rescued, the Qiu family caravan saw that the two were armed with sharp weapons.
Some people object to taking in the two, worrying that they will cause trouble for no reason, while others feel that from the perspective of the two’s clothes, there is nothing luxurious and expensive, even if there are grievances in the rivers and lakes, it is not serious To the point of death.
In the end, Qiu Changtian, the leader of the Qiu family caravan, made the final call, temporarily taking in and saving the two.
After that, Xie Chengyun woke up first, and after a little inquiries about the outside world, he secretly talked with Qiu Changtian, informed his identity, and thanked him for saving his life with a lot of money. Looking for a temporary place to stay.
According to Xie Chengyun’s plan, the original plan was to leave the caravan and go to Shangjing when the caravan passed through the vicinity of northern Shaanxi.
But halfway through the journey, Xie Jia Tianying brought news that the Jinling sword furnace was exposed, the government and the public were shaken, and the martial arts were shocked. , wanting to ask for an explanation to prevent Li Wu from doing the opposite.
However, there was a rumor in the palace that Beidoutian Li Youzhen was going to break through the barrier on the ninth day of the ninth day of the ninth lunar month.
For a while, the undercurrent in Beijing was turbulent, the attitudes of all parties were vague, and the situation was unclear.
The Xie family advised Xie Chengyun to avoid other places temporarily and not to appear in Beijing. As one of the reasons for detonating this matter, it is definitely not a good thing for him to fall into this vortex at will.
Since this was the case, then Xie Chengyun simply left in no hurry. He and Chu Yunsheng kept their names incognito and followed the caravan all the way north, leaving the Central Plains far away and heading directly to Beimo.
All of them became familiar with each other and became friends in the rivers and lakes called brothers.
When I was resting at Langgu Pass two days ago, Qiu Changtian didn’t disclose it, but the people in the Qiu family caravan seemed to have a premonition of the arrival of parting.
So before leaving last night, a group of people in the caravan pulled Chu Yunsheng and Xie Chengyun into the most lively tavern in Langgu Pass. Dozens of plates of meat are connected, hundreds of jars of good wine are fully open, guessing and fighting, laughing and scolding, until the middle of the moon, it is not enough.
It was windy and sandy outside, and the moon and stars were cold, but the small tavern was very lively.
Those who shook their heads thoughtfully, sighed and chuckled, those who knocked on the wine bowls and jars shouted loudly, those who didn’t know why they applauded and did not forget to persuade them to drink, and those who sneaked their chopsticks into the wine to taste it, Xiao Qiu’er wrinkled her face after tasting it.
Pairs of eyes stared, smiling faces lit up, the rising heat, the rough pottery bowl, Chu Yunsheng and Xie Chengyun were pressed together, ears pressed against ears, temples brushed With his hair on the temples, his shoulders and necks intersect, his arms are wrapped around him, and he swallows three bucks of hot wine in his mouth.
It was just a sip of wine, but it was sweaty when we parted.
Uncle Wen shouted in a rough voice: “Master, what’s wrong with drinking a cup, don’t be so awkward! Little monkey, you and your brother Wang have one too!”
“One! One!”
The cacophonous voices started again.
Xie Chengyun also knocked on the wine jar, laughed and pulled the little monkey.
Chu Yunsheng sat down again, feeling the lively atmosphere, and raised his hand to pour a bowl of wine for Xie Chengyun.
And all roads have an end. When this river and lake road comes to the end, it will also be the day of parting ways.
The tavern closed in the middle of the night, the men hanging on their shoulders and the women who seemed to be drunk and awake walked out together.
Someone looked up at the full moon in the sky, hoarse voice, and hummed a low tune.
Dengguan and overlooking the distance, the desert is solitary, the frontier fortress is windy.
It’s just that Xiao Qiu’er is cheerful and martial, and she admires handsome and literary people, so she was very curious about Chu Yunsheng and Xie Chengyun at first, but after a long period of contact, the two People often teach her to read and write in her spare time, and to practice some fists and feet, and she becomes more and more close to the two of them, and already regards them as her own ancestors.
Children are the least fond of separation.
Now that parting is coming, Xiao Qiuer is unacceptable. But the rivers and lakes are far away, and it is a hard-won fate to be able to walk together, and it is hard to predict how many.
A moment later, the carriage door opened again, Xie Chengyun in a black cloak bent over and came in, sat down with his knees crossed, and reached out to Chu Yunsheng.
Chu Yunsheng turned his wrist and put it in Xie Chengyun’s palm, letting him input his true qi, check his qi sea dantian, and the meridians all over his body.
“The exercise that you created is really strange.”
No matter how well he recovers, no matter how many panaceas he eats, at most he can move freely like an ordinary person, and his martial arts skills will only be ruined.”
“But at the moment, except for some hard-to-heal internal injuries, it’s almost better.”
After saying that, Xie Chengyun raised his eyes to look at Chu Yunsheng, his fingers pressing on Chu Yunsheng’s vein door loosened his strength, leaned over and leaned on Chu Yunsheng’s shoulder, and immediately Bowing his head, he used the tips of his teeth to open the front of Chu Yunsheng’s clothes.
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng helped Xie Chengyun’s back and let him stick to it.
This time, he has become accustomed to it.
Xie Chengyun’s anger is often the one who comes with his concern for his injury.
According to Xie Chengyun’s words, once he saw his injury, he remembered the palm he swept towards him when he cut his belt when he fell off a cliff.
He didn’t want to quarrel with Chu Yunsheng in anger, and he didn’t want to be so sullen, so every time he came to check the injury, he would bite Chu Yunsheng. Leave a mark, to improve memory, lest he do such unbelievable things in the future.
Leave.
A brief tingling in the shoulder.
Chu Yunsheng looked down at him, as if looking at a small beast. He was so angry that he rushed over to bite the deceived master, but he was afraid that the master would be seriously injured, so he clenched his fangs. I touched it carefully, rubbed it, and at the end, I still felt that it was not enough, so I stuck out the tip of my tongue to soothe the red scar I left.
, but it’s glib.”
Suddenly, out of the corner of Xie Chengyun’s eyes, he saw the small wooden carving pendant of sword and sword hanging on the wall of the carriage, and said with a pause, “Xiao Qiu’er guessed that we are leaving?”
Chu Yunsheng nodded slightly.
Xie Chengyun said in a low voice: “He is a smart and good boy with good roots. If there is peace, any sect will have a bright future. But now that the dragon vein is broken, the emperor’s sword is recast. The matter has spread all over the world, and the four corners are shaken, and the century-old tranquility of the rivers and lakes has been broken, and it is hard to predict what the future will be like.”
Speaking of this, Xie Chengyun remembered something and said: “By the way, the news that Tianying just brought, Ning Guan and Lin Ce both appeared three days ago in the town thirty miles north of Pingyuan Town. Crazy Beach, it is suspected that he is going to post a battle, help the opponent break through the last shackles of Hanshen with a life-and-death battle, and achieve Ding Dan.”
“Furthermore, Crazy Beach is not far from Beimo Sword Tomb. I used to travel the world, and the only pilgrimage place for swordsmen that I have never been to is Beimo Sword Tomb.”
“It is said that it is the place where Wanjian stands proudly after the sword cave. Buried together with Kendo in the Sword Tomb.”
“And unlike the sword cave, which houses countless famous swords in the world, the hidden swords in the sword mound are not only the swords and kendo of these masters, but also many other swords. Dao. Whether it is an unnamed blacksmith who has been working silently for a lifetime in a small town, or an unnamed blacksmith who has been carrying a wooden sword and never stepped into the threshold of martial arts all his life, he can only chop wood for hunting day and night, a hunter with a mediocre life, as long as you want, as long as You can step on that sword mound step by step, and you can bury your sword there.”
Chu Yunsheng looked at the longing in Xie Chengyun’s eyes and said, “It is not the tomb of famous swords, but the mound of swords in the world.”
.”
Chu Yunsheng said again: “Then Xie Gongzi went to Mad Beach to watch his friends fight and congratulate them on their breakthrough, or to go to the Sword Tomb to see the sword and understand the sword?”
Bringing Xie Chengyun’s high-spirited appearance into his eyes, Chu Yunsheng’s lips could not help overflowing with a smile.
This appearance is the famous Fuxue Sword Xie Chengyun, all kinds of despair, all kinds of despair and pain in Yanxia Mountain should be the fire of Nirvana, exhausted, That’s it.
The Qiujia caravan also arrived in Pingyuan Town. After resting here for a night, they will officially head north and enter the depths of the Northern Desert.
Crazy beach.
Because the Crazy Beach is not far from the North Desert Sword Tomb, and there is the famous Wugou Villa in the east near Daxia, there are many people from the rivers and lakes.
People from the north have a bold temperament and a hot temper. Chu Yunsheng came on horseback and saw countless swords, lights, swords, and shadows. The stall owner and the guys are also used to seeing it. Put a rag on his shoulders and start to stretch his neck to watch it with relish. The guests won’t be startled away.
This can be regarded as a unique scenery of Crazy Beach.
Nearly five miles to Kuangsha Beach, you can already see many small market towns nearby. A little further away, you can still see the mighty Kuangsha River by taking advantage of the semi-brightness of the night before it has completely fallen. A vast open wasteland.
At the end of the wasteland, there are continuous snow-capped mountains and long clouds. The highest mountain is called Xuesha Mountain.
On the mountainside of this mountain is the Northern Desert Sword Tomb that Xie Chengyun and countless swordsmen all over the world are thinking about.
“Find a place to stay first, and then go find someone tomorrow.”
, you can find it by asking anyone at will.”
Chu Yunsheng nodded, no objection.
Ningguan is the owner of Wugou Villa, and the young disciple of Pei Xinfang, the second-ranked immortal “judge” on the Immortal Ranking. Wugou Villa is located at the junction of Daxia and Beimo. Guguan and Mad Beach are only two or three days away, so this place can be called Ningguan’s site. Just ask a local person, and the other party has seen Ningguan more than once.
Since they planned to rest today and not go looking for people, the two asked for directions and went to the only inn in Crazy Beach, pushing all the schedules to tomorrow.
However, when the two of them reached the gate of the inn, they just turned over and dismounted, and were about to step into the inn, when they heard a loud and familiar shouting from the half-open door of the inn.
“Ningguan, stop for me!”
Chu Yunsheng and Xie Chengyun paused in footsteps, looked at each other, and raised their eyebrows slightly.
Raised on his head, Kankan blocked a shadow of a silver spear rushing out.
“Miss Yan, Sister Yan, Aunt Yan! Don’t fight, don’t fight, so many people are watching, the children of Jianghu are informal!”
The young man in red ran and begged for mercy again and again, but his tone was not so sincere, but the more he listened, the more he wanted to be beaten.
After a few steps, the young man in red ran into Chu Yunsheng and Xie Chengyun head-on.
“Brother Ning is so happy.”
Ning Guan was about to perform light work for a while, and the playful smile on his face turned into a stunned surprise. He stared at Xie Chengyun carefully as if he was watching a novel character. : “Yo, isn’t this Young Master Xie who has caused chaos in the world!”
Looking to the side of Chu Yunsheng again: “This is Miss Chu Chu? Is the woman disguised as a man?”
Chu Yunsheng said bluntly: “In the past, men disguised themselves as women.”
Ning Guan choked, and before he could widen his eyes, Yan Xuanji, who was holding a silver gun in the inn, also chased after him, followed Ning Guan’s figure and saw Xie Chengyun and Chu Yunsheng .
“Brother Xie, Miss Chu?”
