Chapter 173 Looking to the Sea
A bad fight resulted in damage to all parties, Miao Cheng was paralyzed, Yun Feixue was paralyzed, the gold rush gang ran away, Qi Jun collapsed, and he was really embarrassed.
Qi Jun was the least injured. When he regained some strength, the first thing he did was to escape from the shadows of Miao Cheng and Yun Feixue. Growing up on the edge of the grassland, he was familiar with the nature of horses and knew that his mount could not run far.
Whistle blowing, the two horses rode back together.
He was about to mount his horse and run away, when suddenly an idea flashed through him.
Miao Cheng taught him that this set of sword techniques had endless uses. He had just learned one sword technique briefly and then forced the gold mining gang to retreat. He took him with him and forced him to teach him the rest.
He could barely get on the horse, but it was undoubtedly impossible to push Miao Cheng up, so he bolted the half-broken door panel to the back of the horse, and spent a lot of effort to drag Miao Cheng out of the ruined temple and turn it over.
On the door panel, I was so exhausted that the blood from the wound had spread to my shoes.
After resting for a while, and just as he was about to mount his horse, Yun Feixue's pleading voice came: "Hey, can you take me with you? I don't have any strength at all!"
Qi Jun said coldly: "If I don't kill you, I will give you an advantage. I don't want to see that stinky face of yours again. Let's leave it to fate whether we live or die!"
Yun Feixue played her trump card: "Don't you want to know the whereabouts of Yin Puxuan?"
Qi Jun was startled, and his heart felt as if he had been lightly poked by a needle. It wasn't very painful, but it was very clear.
"I am imprisoned by your Lianzhenfang, what good place can there be!" After saying this, he got on his horse and headed north, Ren Yunfeixue begged, never looking at her again.
After a thrilling moment, the suppressed hunger and thirst came back again. The hunger was bearable, but the thirst was really uncomfortable. I could feel the arteries in my neck beating, as if I had been fed a tube of thick porridge.
Qi Jun swallowed his saliva and looked around on his horse. He saw a small puddle of water in the woods beside the road, with dead leaves floating on it. The water quality was unclear and unclear. He had drunk water much muddier than this in the desert, and some leaves were
What? I immediately jumped off the horse, lay down by the puddle and drank to my fill.
Miao Cheng was lying on the door panel and crying out for thirst. Qi Jun took a few handfuls of water and fed him. Looking at his face, which was green, and his eyebrows were particularly dark, it looked like he had serious internal injuries. After thinking about it for a while, he imitated Miao Cheng's words and asked.
: "How about we discuss it?"
Tat for tat, Miao Cheng couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What's the point of discussing?"
"You have serious internal injuries. I will take you to see a doctor."
"Ordinary doctors can't cure my internal injuries, and famous doctors are hard to find. I'm afraid you can't help me!"
"Then how do your family members heal their wounds? Is it by infusing the infuriating energy as rumored?"
"It would be best if there are masters who can use their pure internal energy to guide me from the outside. But where can I find an internal master here? Even if I find one, it's still a question of whether they are willing to spend their energy to save me!"
Qi Jun originally wanted to make a business deal, but he was a little confused when he heard what he said: "Then how do you want to heal your wounds?"
Miao Cheng smiled: "Why do you suddenly care about me? I want to bring you before the prince to hold you accountable!"
Qi Jun snorted, Niu Jin came up again, ignored Miao Cheng, mounted his horse, picked up the reins, and drove off.
Not long after walking, a soft and moist warm wind blew in front of me, and a faint salty smell blew into my nostrils. I was wondering when my horse walked up a mountain, and the world in front of me suddenly became clear.
Under the pale yellow moonlight, the almost ink-like dark blue spreads thousands of miles away, like a huge piece of silk dancing. Stars and pink and purple nebulae scattered on the silk surface, sliding and swaying with the dance, gathering and scattering.
Crabs sing and turtles sing, quietly as described. Bitter salt turns into fragrance, enters the nose and is fresh, and the heart is like a touch. The wind stings the skin, and the limbs and bones are soothed, and the fresh air flows straight through the building.
Qi Jun felt as if there was an eagle in his heart that wanted to sing loudly. He couldn't help but take a deep breath, then closed his eyes and exhaled. His body and mind had never felt so comfortable.
Although the desert in my hometown is also so vast, its desolation and indifference are daunting. The sea in front of me is indescribably soft, like a mother's gentle embrace, and like a long-lost hometown, which makes me feel close to my heart.
He hurriedly urged his horse downhill and jogged for a mile to the beach. The sound of the tide was quiet, and the rhythm was caressing the beach. He dismounted and stood still, his feet were soft and no different from the desert. He walked to the edge of the waves and deeply smelled the breath of the sea.
I couldn't help but take a sip of sea water.
I took a sip of sea water and vomited out half of the water I drank on the way. I knew that sea water was bitter and salty, but I never thought it would be so bitter and salty.
Miao Cheng lay on the door panel and laughed: "I will die of thirst without drinking sea water. Is this your first time seeing the sea?"
Qi Jun calmed down and stretched out his sleeves to wipe his mouth clean: "What's the matter, doesn't Mr. Joke know anything about it?"
"No, no, I have never seen the desert. I have always been fascinated but never made the trip. There are so many things in the world that I have never seen. Who am I qualified to laugh at you!"
Qi Jun snorted coldly: "This is still a human saying!"
Although Miao Cheng could not move, he felt very comfortable due to the sea tide and sea breeze. He raised his eyes and looked at the bright nebula, which was not without emotion.
"It is said that people are looking for their 'hometown' when they are born. For a lucky person, his birthplace is his 'hometown'. For those who are less lucky, after searching for several years and decades, they suddenly find a place that is extremely friendly.
It seems to often appear in dreams, this is when you have found your 'hometown'. The most painful thing is that you never have the feeling of 'going home' throughout your life, even if you stay with your parents, wife and children, your heart is always wandering!"
Qi Jun looked at Miao Cheng in confusion, not knowing why he said this, and asked: "Then have you found your 'hometown'?"
Miao Cheng smiled: "Not yet, but what about you, is there something that suddenly makes you feel peaceful, warm, familiar, and sentimental?"
Qi Jun thought for a moment and shook his head, "I'm not as sentimental as you. Leicheng is my home, and I feel at peace when my relatives are around me."
"Then congratulations to you, you are the lucky one."
Qi Jun suddenly felt that there was a sense of loneliness in Miao Cheng, who was soft and tender and needed to be cared for. Therefore, he felt a sympathy for him. Although his eyes were looking towards the sea, his tone was much softer.
"If you and I hadn't had this grudge, we could have become friends."
Miao Cheng looked at Qi Jun and saw that his back melted into the starlight on the sea. He didn't look like an evil person. "I was deeply injured internally and couldn't move for a while. It was easy for you to kill me, but you not only didn't do it, but you took me with you."
Come on, are you good or evil?"
The waves gently hit the beach, covering up Qi Jun's wry smile: "How can there be a clear world between good and evil, and how can there be smoothness and reverseness between cause and effect?"
"You seem to have something to hide."
"The most shameful thing for a warrior is not losing all his skills, but being at the mercy of a woman!"
Miao Cheng was smart and asked: "Is it possible that what you did to Lin Zhenfang was forced by others?"
Qi Jun didn't bother to defend himself. Tonight he experienced the vastness of the starry sky and the sea, which made his mind much broader.
The overwhelming experiences in Lianzhenfang suddenly shrunk to a trickle, and it was not worth thinking about. The only phantom in my mind was Yin Puxuan's delicate body.
It means steaming up the sea water and blowing away the desert sand. I, Qi Jun, will keep her safe. When the day comes when she is safe, I will return to the desert and never set foot in the Central Plains again, or I will find a seaside town to live in seclusion.
