After leaving the north city gate, I kept on speeding and kept reminding me that it was safe.
"Sir, we agreed in advance that we cannot enter the Gobi. If you don't listen, I will really report it to my mistress!"
Lou Xiaoyi smiled and said nothing, it's now this time, can I still let you go?
It's still the same road. The main road goes north for about ten miles and then turns northwest. This is also the shortest distance into the Gobi.
The past is like smoke. A month ago, there were eight teenagers speeding on this road. Unfortunately, what awaited them was a tragic ending!
Some people will shrink back, some people will escape, some people will change their expressions when talking, and be afraid like snakes and scorpions, but some people are still fearless!
Lou Xiaoyi never thought that there was anything to be afraid of in the Gobi Desert, as long as he was cautious enough! The last time he was in trouble was because he was not a talker! If he had been in charge, such a tragic ending would never have happened!
Because they were familiar with the road, they ran faster than last time. There was still an hour before noon, and they had already entered the desert!
Ping An was yelling from behind, but Lou Xiaoyi just ignored him. It was not until he was nearly ten miles into the Gobi Desert that he almost became hoarse when he heard Ping An's voice behind him. He stopped, jumped off his horse, and stood on a pile of sand.
Observe the terrain.
"Master, Master, when I go back, I will definitely charge you with disobedience!" Ping An was out of breath.
Lou Xiaoyi laughed and said, "First, I will stay here today and not go any further! Second, the day I pass the examination will be the day when you will be promoted to management! What else can you say?"
Pingan jumped off the horse and said, "This is a naked bribe!"
Lou Xiaoyi pouted, "Then I'll talk to you about our ideals and the future, will you listen?"
After looking at the sand pile for a long time, I actually didn't see the reason. A person who has never lived in the Gobi Desert in his past life can already know it based on the descriptions of a few indigenous sand people. That is
Delusion.
But he remembered two things very clearly. The sand people all said that the thing was most likely to appear in low-lying areas and in shaded areas.
He found two such places, so he threw a sand shovel to Ping An and carried one himself.
"Come on, let's start working. If you want to be a general manager, you have to have some strength!"
In a lowland where the sun cannot reach them, the two of them began to dig a hole. They were digging with great fear, fearing that another sand snake and sand scorpion would come out and bite them. It was okay, but if they bit the young master again, they would lose this job.
I want to work again. How can a person in his thirties or forties find such an easy job with good benefits and dignity?
Lou Xiaoyi laughed, "What are you afraid of, Ping An? There is protection and medicine for wounds... Don't think those snakes and scorpions are stupid! They would have run away when they sensed any movement! People are afraid of snakes and scorpions, and snakes and scorpions are even more afraid of people.
!”
Not long after, a five or six foot deep sand pit was dug. The sand was easy to dig without any effort, but we could not continue because it was collapsing at any time.
After digging, Lou Xiaoyi took out a large porcelain vase from the baggage he carried with him. This is a utensil used by Pucheng people to hold herbal tea in summer. It is about a foot high and half a foot in diameter. The bottle mouth is sealed very well, and Pucheng people generally
After filling this thing with herbal tea, it is hung into the well and soaked. When you drink it, you can enjoy it under the scorching sun.
After placing the porcelain bottle, Lou Xiaoyi carefully took out a bottle of dolphin incense, poured more than half of the dolphin incense into the bottom of the porcelain bottle, and sprinkled the rest evenly around the outside of the porcelain bottle.
Finally, climb up the pit and tie the bottle cap with a rope so that you can lower it at any time to cover something that may have entered the bottom of the bottle through the smell!
Everything was arranged properly, and then they moved to another place, a few miles apart, and laid a trap again.
This is Lou Xiaoyi’s practice attempt!
He found that if you want to practice in this world, you can't get around the spiritual machine. Of course, this also includes all things related to the spiritual machine, such as more intense secret cultivation places, spiritual weapons and spiritual objects. To put it bluntly, they are resources.
Where can he, an ordinary mortal, find resources? Even if he is as rich as the son of the richest man in Pucheng, he has to give up after practicing for more than a year. It can be seen that there is no comparability in the exchange between mortal wealth and spiritual resources. It is a concept that cannot be exchanged for a thousand pieces of gold.
, can immortality be bought with money?
The richest man, the Li family, is not even a man, let alone an empty one, relying on a few villages outside the city, a few shops in the city and the legacy of Lou Sima to survive. Lou Xiaoyi, no matter how obsessed with spiritual practice, cannot go to his own house.
Make up your mind.
After thinking about it, he found that the only spiritual object he had ever seen in his life was the white sand worm seen in the earth cliff cave carvings!
This thing is actually mentioned in the book Three Thousand Years of Witnessing Strange Forms. It is a specialty near Pucheng in Zhaoye Kingdom. To be precise, it is a specialty of the Gobi Desert. There is no other semicolon.
The letter makes it clear that it is like the ribs of a bird, it is tasteless to eat and it is not a pity to throw them away!
Chicken ribs are boring enough. Is that bird rib thing worth chewing? It means that the spiritual power of the white sandworm is weak, and it is the lowest existence among all living things that can carry spiritual power; plus this thing
They are naturally timid and sharp. They hide in the sand and are extremely difficult to catch in large quantities, so they have no usable value.
White sand worms to practitioners are like throwing two or three rice grains at an elephant. Not to mention covering the belly, the gaps between the teeth are not full, and it has already been lost before it reaches the stomach. Therefore, serious Qi practitioners with some skills
They won't make any decisions about it.
But Lou Xiaoyi is not an elephant, he is now a skull ant. Things that elephants don’t like, the skull ant thinks are pretty good!
During the few days he was trapped in the cave, he accidentally discovered this secret. People say that white sandworms are timid and sharp, and difficult to catch. It's just that they didn't find the right way. For any creature, it has its shortcomings and fatalities.
Where it is, I just don’t know.
The white sandworms surrounding it were actually the lamp oil that Lou Xiaoyi accidentally dripped on the ground when he moved the lantern. It seems that the white sandworms particularly like this thing? Is it because of the smell or other reasons?
This is easy to understand. Human beings also like to smell all kinds of strange smells. Some like stinky tofu, some are obsessed with athlete's foot, and some are obsessed with the smell of gasoline. If humans are like this, let alone insects?
But why was it that only his lantern and lamp oil could attract bugs? Why didn't other broken lanterns attract insects? This was why he was in trouble with the grocery store manager.
Now that he understands it, he and his team are here today.
As for how to use these white sand insects for practice if we really catch them, this is the next topic to be studied. If we don’t catch a few, it’s useless to study them?
I found a shady place, spread a piece of cloth, and put food on the table. The weather was getting hotter and hotter. I couldn't eat anything except water, melons and fruits. I didn't dare to drink wine. He was just an ordinary person riding a horse.
If you drive drunk again and fall down and break your neck, it will be a big joke. You will be nailed to Pucheng's pillar of shame and will never be able to wash it away for the rest of your life.
Now that he is safe, he can roughly guess what the little husband is catching, but he understands better what he should ask and know, and what he should pretend to be confused about. This is the reason why he has climbed to this point.
When it comes to the master's affairs, especially those weird ones, it's best to treat yourself as a fool. In this case, no one will like someone who is clever and inquisitive.
