Liu Xiaoshan thought for a while and said: "Maybe this matter starts with Wei Chen. Although Wei Chen and Zuo Sitian had a fight at that time, I don't think it was a life and death fight. What do you think?
"
Chen Yunsheng nodded and said: "You are right. Now that I think about it, the two of them seem to be reunited as old friends. There is no sense of urgency that life and death hang on a thread. Do they know each other?"
Liu Xiaoshan smiled and said: "It's more than just a reunion of old friends. I guess that capturing you in the Star Palace is just a scene agreed between them. Star Palace claims to have come to capture you under the will of the God of Light, so naturally it cannot be left to others.
, and Huangquan is not willing to use the Thirteen Shura Sects for you. If someone stirs up trouble, I believe that a spark can cause a fight between the two largest forces in Cathay. And you are the most important in the whole game.
A chess piece."
Chen Yunsheng sighed and said: "After all, I don't see it as thoroughly as you. After you said it, the cause and effect are really clear. It's just that I was used as a pawn and I didn't even know it."
Liu Xiaoshan continued: "I think Zuo Sitian and Weichen are not hostile to you or me, otherwise they would not let me go, let alone you. Only by keeping you in the Star Palace can arouse Huang Quan's greater desire.
anger."
"According to your analysis, even if I don't break the magic circle, Zuo Sitian will come to rescue me and kill Kui Mulang." Chen Yunsheng understood all the key points.
Liu Xiaoshan nodded, "As for him, he probably had no choice but to kill those prisoners. Everyone saw him doing it to Kui Mulang, and everyone saw that he planned to save you. If Zuo Sitian released them, he would also
There is no need to stay in the Star Palace."
"If I hadn't let those prisoners leave, Zuo Sitian probably wouldn't have killed them. No wonder he had such a heavy expression on his face when he took action." Chen Yunsheng said sadly. From this point of view, he did not help.
.
Liu Xiaoshan said softly: "You don't have to blame yourself, you did the right thing. Anyone would do it without knowing it. It was Xinggong who was at fault, and it was they who threw good people into prison.
Among them, they have destroyed human nature."
After a long time, Chen Yunsheng recovered from his self-blame. He asked Liu Xiaoshan: "Who do you think Zuo Sitian and Weichen are?"
Liu Xiaoshan stared at him with a half-smile and said, "You already have the answer in your mind, why do you still ask me?"
"Perhaps, they are all guardians?" Chen Yunsheng expressed the bold idea in his heart.
Liu Xiaoshan added: "Maybe, they are all your senior uncles."
Chen Yunsheng leaned weakly on the board of Chuanyunzhou, looking at the clouds in the sky, at the blue-gray sea, and at the flocks of birds migrating from north to south. He felt a slight chill.
It comes to mind. If what they guessed is true, what power makes the two of them determined to lurk in the two dangerous sects?
Huang Quan and Big Star Master are such shrewd people. If they do anything carelessly, they may lose their lives. But Zuo Sitian and Weichen lurked down without hesitation, and stayed in the two equally extreme sects for a hundred years.
Such a sacrifice is too great.
Thinking of the Sixth Master Bo Luo Canyang who guarded the Holy Emperor's head in Sleepy Hollow and the crazy master Bo Wang Xingzhi, who spent their lives fulfilling a promise, Chen Yunsheng felt that he was very small. And these people seemed to be respected.
Huge statues were displayed in the sky, and he could only look up at them.
…
Chen Yunsheng and Liu Xiaoshan flew on the Shenluo Sea for three days. After crossing the narrow strait, they came to the Bahuang full of yellow sand. The white coastline was slowly left behind them, and Chen Yunsheng felt a wave of
The breath of the wilderness hit him. Dry, cold, and monotonous, this was the first feeling Bahuang gave him.
The sky here is always the same color, like blue crystal, spotless. The land of Bahuang is more monotonous than the Shinra Sea. Similar sand dunes and similar ravines make up all the landforms here. Next
There are only a few clumps of stubbornly growing poplar trees here and there.
There was no water, only sand and gravel. After flying in the sky for three days, Chen Yunsheng came to this conclusion. In these three days, they did not find any water source on the ground. After the two people consumed all the fresh water, they actually started to feel thirsty.
Worry. Monks can skip meals, but they must drink water. Some monks use water to preach and practice, which shows how important water is in monks’ practice.
Liu Xiaoshan is a body of Kuishui, and only water exists. Whether the water comes from smelly rivers or seawater, she can purify it with magic and turn it into nectar. Even the water vapor in the air can condense into dew under her skillful hands.
.However, there is no water in the interior of Bahuang, which makes it difficult for Liu Xiaoshan to make a meal without rice.
However, monks are not comparable to ordinary people. Without any water entering, the two of them flew forward for three more days. Finally, there was a trace of water vapor in the sky. Liu Xiaoshan stood at the highest point of the cloud boat and continued to cast spells.
Chen Yunsheng used the original can of wine to save half of the can. The two of them looked at me and I looked at you, both feeling very embarrassed.
However, the further they flew northwest, the heavier the water vapor in the sky became. Although there were still no rivers on the ground, the two of them no longer had to worry about lack of water. On this day, Liu Xiaoshan stared at the monotonous terrain in front of him in a daze, while Chen Yunsheng held a cup.
Xiang Ming came to her side. He handed the cup to Liu Xiaoshan and said, "What are you doing?"
Taking the cup of tea, Liu Xiaoshan smiled and said: "I have always poured tea for you, why do you have the leisure to do such a thing today?"
Chen Yunsheng shrugged and said: "Being idle is also idle. The Eight Wildernesses are indeed desolate. We have been traveling for so long, and we haven't even seen a single drought-resistant lizard. It's hard to imagine that there are still people living in the Eight Wildernesses.
So many people.”
Liu Xiaoshan opened his eyes wide and said suspiciously: "How do you know there are people living in Bahuang? I don't think there are even ants here, let alone people."
Chen Yunsheng shook his head slightly, took out a silk book from Naxu Ring, and said with pride: "All the stories of Bahuang are in this book. Back then, I spent twenty spiritual stones from the owner of Huanzhu Tower.
I bought it, but I didn’t expect it to finally come in use today.”
Liu Xiaoshan took the book from Chen Yunsheng's hand and quickly flipped through a few pages. She was quickly attracted by the concise descriptions in the book. As she read, she wondered: "According to the book, not only is the Eight Wastelands not a barbaric place,
The place is still very prosperous.”
"Indeed, I believe we will see those villages and small towns soon if we fly further north." Chen Yunsheng said, staring at the endless sand dunes below the Chuanyun Boat.
"This book says that the people who actually rule the Eight Wastelands are not the superior Shuramen, but a group of people called sand bandits." Liu Xiaoshan's voice rose a little higher.
Chen Yunsheng chuckled and said: "I think this is inaccurate. This writer must have never seen the horror of the Shura Sect. If he sees the illusion, sees Shura, and sees a group of Shura Sect's god-transforming sect masters
, I believe he would not write like this."
Liu Xiaoshan read quietly for a while, then raised his head and said: "I don't think so. This book clearly states that the Shuramen are gods aloof. Gods will not pay attention to every move of the ants on the ground. On the contrary, they will only be hovering in the sky all day long.
Only a goshawk will notice if there are cunning rabbits on the ground. He thinks that the sand bandits are a group of hawks coming and going in a hurry, and they are the actual owners of this sand sea."
While the two people were talking, a sand eagle with bright feathers flew not far ahead. This eagle had obviously never seen the monk's flying boat. It went up and down around the Chuanyun boat, circling for a long time before leaving.
Following the direction in which the flying eagle left, Chen Yunsheng suddenly discovered a group of small black dots on the ground constantly wriggling forward.
"That's a man!" he shouted.
Liu Xiaoshan also discovered the group of people, "Those should be merchant groups, we'd better leave Chuanyunzhou and talk to them."
Chen Yunsheng nodded in agreement. Soon the Chuan Yun boat landed on a sand dune. The two of them flew to a place ten miles away from the group and changed to walking. The identity of the monk will attract people wherever he is in Cathay.
To cause unnecessary trouble. So when they can hide, the two of them are still willing to continue hiding.
When the two people appeared in front of the merchant team, the big man who led the team almost fell off the camel cart in shock. He looked at Chen Yunsheng and Liu Xiaoshan up and down for more than a hundred times, and finally said with difficulty: "Unexpectedly,
They are two living people."
Looking at this strong man with a red beard, Chen Yunsheng said politely: "We are also surprised to meet you."
The big man with a red beard pointed in the direction where Chen Yunsheng came from and said: "You are actually coming from that direction. We are in Bahuang this season, and that direction is the direction of death."
Chen Yunsheng said in astonishment: "My name is Nantian. I am new to Bahuang. My friend, can you explain me clearly?"
At this time, many people from the caravan behind gathered around, and a young man in his twenties said: "My name is Panta, and we are all porters from Fengsha Town. My elder brother is right, the direction you are coming from
It's the south. During this season, all the rivers on the ground in the south will dry up, and there won't even be a drop of water three hundred feet underground, so it's called a dead place."
After hearing this, Chen Yunsheng woke up as if from a dream. Why was there not even a trace of water vapor in the air along the way? He asked: "Then how can you travel in this sea of sand?"
Panta showed a smile unique to young people and said quickly: "Although the winter in Bahuang is difficult to endure, we can identify a monsoon belt from the north. As long as the caravan travels in the monsoon belt, there will probably be no problem. We have
A method to accumulate water vapor in the air..."
"Friends, I haven't asked you what to do in Bahuang?" The red-bearded man interrupted Panta.
