Chapter 153 Desert Sand
153
On the sixth day of arriving at this land, Mr. Gu and others prepared a lot of things ordered by the nine-foot uncle and were ready to go on the road. The nine-foot man looked at Mr. Lu's tired appearance, and his little face became a little pale. He frowned and shook his head. He sighed and said, "Mr. Lu, you still don't want to go to this desert. It's dangerous. I'm afraid you have the fate to go in and come out!"
Mr. Lu said unconvincedly, "How can I be as fragile as you think!" Why can my younger brother go, but I can't? I don't believe it, I must go!"
Mr. Shan advised: "He is different from you. He has traveled much more than you in the past few months, and it goes without saying that he has suffered much. Brother Lu, your face has become pale and scary, even worse than when I came out. Don't take this risk! Why don't I stay here with you?
The nine-foot man shook his head and said, "We will not return from the same place this time."
Mr. Gu said helplessly, "Then let's take a rest and recuperate in this town and wait until Brother Lu recovers. For the sake of safety, you must return to the best state.
The nine-foot man looked at the weak Mr. Lu, shook his head again, and whispered, "I'm afraid it won't work when he has a good rest!"
Since he wanted to rest and recuperate, the nine-foot uncle simply took Mr. Gu and others to outsource a remote manor in the city for a few days.
The manor has no walls, only a simple wooden pile fence to prevent livestock and poultry from accidentally entering. The trees and flowers around the manor are still the same as the plants on the two islands I have been to before.
The whole manor has only three or four tile houses, staggered close together, forming a half-month arc.
Mr. Gu looked inside and outside and said with a smile, "It's not good, just like the manor in our hometown. However, the manors here are still a little different from ours: the houses in my hometown are one after another, neatly piled up there, looking rigorous and dull; the houses here are scattered at will and separated in a circular arc, which seems to be scattered and relaxed. If I really want to choose, I guess I will still choose this kind of manor that looks relaxed and comfortable.
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "I don't think so. You just want to be novel. After living for a long time, you will feel that the pattern in your hometown is more comfortable."
Mr. Shan took the opportunity to make fun of him and said, "You are talking about yourself!" Why, do you regret it now?"
Mr. Lu shook his head awkwardly and said, "How come! Although I feel very uncomfortable, very tired, very painful, and never sleep well, I have seen many landscapes that I have never seen before, experienced such an exciting escape game, and experienced a feeling that I have never felt before: fantasy is always better than reality, bitter, and sweet! I believe that as long as you give me some time, I will be able to adapt to your endless journey and play together more happily!"
Over there, the nine-foot man has paid the negotiated lease to a thin old man. For the recuperation of Mr. Lu, Mr. Gu simply wrapped it up for ten days.
On the carriage shelves outside the manor, all the goods that were originally piled up have been moved into the house, greeting the ancient princes and driving back to the city. By the way, it also carried the thin manor owner.
The four horses that were originally ridden have been sold as early as the city. In the desert and sand sea, they are useless.
Without the pursuit and the noise of the streets, except for the nine-foot man, I am still full of wine and food every day. The three quiet princes began to keep practicing martial arts and enhance their skills.
How long did Mr. Gu practice? Even if Mr. Lu was soaked with sweat and his body trembled uncontrollably, he gritted his teeth and insisted on practicing with them.
Mr. Gu smiled and looked at this stubborn face, but he was more proud than him. He did not persuade him to rest, but kept cheering for him.
Occasionally, the nine-foot man is interested and will prescribe a few bitter and difficult soups for them.
Looking at the momentum of Mr. Gu and Mr. Shan frowning and drinking all in one breath, Mr. Lu, who had just been bitterly, picked up the porcelain bowl again, frowned, raised his spirits, and slowly squeezed it down one bite.
During the rest meal time, Mr. Gu and Mr. Shan would cook one or two dishes, and the nine-foot man also showed his hands once or twice. Although the taste was not good, they felt more sweet when they tasted it.
After practicing every day and taking a bath, even in this sultry weather, their hair has not been dry, and the breathing of the three people sounded one after another.
The flat ** has two more rumbling peaks than before, which belong to the mountain prince, that is, Xue Yueer.
In this remote place, there is also a nine-foot Han rock lion, a peerless master, who pretends to be a mountain prince, returns to her original shape again, but she still wears a mask on her face just in case.
In recent years, she, with a round face, has become slimmer and more beautiful, and her body is lighter and more flexible. However, all this, the little bone ding pretending to be the ancient prince did not find anything abnormal. In terms of appearance, she can't compare with the four princesses. In terms of twin peaks and figure, she can't compare with the ice beauty Cuihan. More importantly, Xiaoguding does not think about this.
The rock lion who saw this scene couldn't help shaking his head with a smile, drank a small glass of wine, and continued to watch their hard training.
Good days are easy to pass away, and the beautiful scenery is difficult to retain. In a blink of an eye, ten days have passed, and they are going to start their journey to the desert sand sea.
"If you are like this, you still can't pass through the sand sea and listen to me. You'd better go back to practice for a year or two before coming out!"
Although they have been practicing very hard for the past ten days, Rock Lion is still not optimistic about the six princesses dressed as men. This girl, who is known as a child prodigy but has only practiced the basic skills of martial arts.
Mr. Lu pouted and said, "My brother Gu has only practiced martial arts for less than half a year. Why can he go, but I have to practice hard for a year or two! Uncle Jiuchi, you are not looking down on me and intend to drive me back, are you?"
"To tell you the truth, I really want to drive you back, because even if you practice for another ten days and a half months, I think you still can't cross the sand sea! Don't compare with your old brother. He has tasted the taste of deep water and fire since he was a child. Even if he didn't practice martial arts, I believe he has enough perseverance to pass through the sand sea! Your brother Shan has practiced martial arts for nearly ten years. Although he has not suffered much, his internal strength is much stronger than you!"
Mr. Lu gritted his teeth and said, "What's the pain that I can't bear?" I believe that as long as you can pass, I will also be able to pass! What's more, my physique is stronger than Gu Di, and I don't believe I will lose to him! I must go on the road this time!"
Rock Lion nodded and said, "Well, let's prepare more camels and bring more clean water and dry food!" Others are one camel, let's have one camel, let's have one camel!"
Mr. Lu clenched his fist angrily and said, "Uncle Nine Feet, you look down on me!"
The rock lion said, "I really didn't underestimate you. Most of the eight camels are prepared for you, so as not to avoid any accident and leave your life in it. I can't tell your father. In addition, I have to change my mind and find another guide!"
Speaking of this, the rock lion remembered the embarrassment of getting lost in the desert before, and his face with a dark beard couldn't help blushing, but he couldn't see it clearly.
Mr. Lu said angrily, "Just look at it! As long as you can pass through the sand sea with Gudi and others!"
The rock lion said unmovedly, "I'm afraid it's still more or less good!"
Mr. Lu was so angry that he gritted his teeth, opened his teeth and claws, and his little feet kept stamping on the ground, and he was about to go crazy. If one bite can bite out a tooth mark, I'm afraid he will have rushed up and won't stop biting more than a dozen bites!
It made Mr. Gu and Mr. Shan laugh, bend down and hold their stomachs, and the flowers and branches tremble, laughing a little uncomfortable!
When he came to the small sand town, the rock lion found a slender and thin guide dressed like the Hu merchant in gray, and a camel full of clean water and dry food. This time, the number has changed from 12 originally scheduled to 13!
Looking at the camel with a sharp mouth, thick nose and long hair and swollen back in front of him, the ancient princes were very interested and turned around.
Sitting on the high camel's double peaks and slowly stepping on the fine sand, Mr. Lu complained: "It walks so slowly to cross the wide sand sea. I don't know how long it will take. No wonder you have to prepare so much clean water and dry food!" So it's for you with a big belly, hee..."
The rock lion laughed and said, "Although the horse runs fast, it is very delicate. I'm afraid it can't live in this sand sea!" Besides, the speed of this camel is not very bad when it really runs. I'm afraid that when you want it to run, you won't have the energy to sit.
Mr. Lu said angrily, "You come to make fun of me again!"
The green in front is gradually disappearing, and finally disappearing. The only thing left is the vast sea of sand that can't be seen at a glance, a gray-yellow color. That momentum is really different from the sea. At a glance, the yellow sand is flat and smooth, and several short sand dunes are sparsely piled up in the distance, which are also pitifully short, like naughty children.
