"Taoist Master Jin'an, is this the Holy Mountain of Sea Transformation in Guchi Kingdom?"
"According to legend, the Holy Mountain of Transforming the Sea in the Guchi Kingdom was a mountain in normal times. On the day of the annual sacrificial ceremony of the Guchi Kingdom, it would turn into the sea in the desert, so later people also called it the Holy Mountain of Transforming the Sea!"
“I didn’t expect that the legendary mountains turned into the sea, but the snowy mountains melted after school in the desert!”
Under the sand pit that had been re-reinforced by Jin An and the others, Yali looked at the snow-covered desert outside the cave and said excitedly.
At this time, the world outside the cave was very cold. The clouds above our heads had been shrouded for several days, the temperature was extreme, and it was snowing continuously.
There seems to be no stopping trend at all.
The wind and snow outside the cave were too strong and too cold, and even Yali did not dare to get too close to the cave entrance. Only Jin An, who had a body of energy and blood as strong as a furnace and had successfully cultivated, could stand shoveling at the entrance of the cave with his face still rosy.
Snow.
At this time, several bonfires were crackling and burning in several buildings under the sand pit, and someone kept adding charcoal to the fire.
All this charcoal was left by the gang of sand thieves.
The sand thieves had prepared a lot of supplies for this trip into the desert, including clothing to keep out the cold, charcoal, food and water, hay, mugwort, salt bricks, etc. specially for camels.
It can be said that the supplies are sufficient.
In the end, Jin'an was all cheaper.
If it hadn't been for this gang of sand pirates, who had blown up sand pits to hide from the snow, and left so many supplies behind, Jin An felt that he wouldn't have been able to see the sacred sight of the snow-capped mountains so smoothly this time.
At this time, the world under the sandpit was crowded with forty-eight camels, four sheep, and ten people. It was overcrowded and had a bit of an unpleasant stench, but it was better to die from the stink than to freeze to death outside.
Moreover, so many camels are crowded together, which is equivalent to thick natural pure fur, and they are warm and warm. Naturally, no one will find these camels smelly.
The wind and snow outside the cave were so strong that the ice and snow accumulated at the entrance of the cave almost as fast as Jin An was shoveling snow. Jin An had to keep shoveling snow to prevent the entrance of the cave from being blocked by heavy snow. He had a cheerful expression on his face while shoveling the snow.
Yali's answer: "Yari, your guess is the same as mine. It seems that the holy mountain of Guchi Kingdom we are looking for is most likely to be in these snowy mountains."
"No wonder so many people have gone into the depths of the desert to look for the Guchi Kingdom and the Huahai Holy Mountain over the years, but they have never been able to find the Guchi Kingdom. It turns out that the Huahai Holy Mountain can only be found in specific seasons and times. Those people are not
If you come early, you come late, and even we almost missed it."
Yali said with a simple smile: "I have to thank the group of sand bandits this time. They finally did a good thing. If it weren't for the sand pit created by the explosion to hide from the snow, we would probably have been too cold to stand it, let alone leave.
It’s possible to see these spectacular snow-capped mountains.”
Yari's words directly caused a group of camels to bray. Those camels kept humming, and their intestines turned green with regret.
I didn’t expect that they had been fully prepared for so long.
In the end, she made wedding clothes for others.
Can they not be depressed and vomit blood?
The snow lasted for two days and two nights. A white wind kept blowing in the desert, and the ground and sky were completely white. The snow on the ground became thicker and thicker.
Jin An kept shoveling the snow for two days without sleep. During the night, the snow finally began to gradually decrease.
It's not that others are unwilling to help.
The wind and snow were too heavy for these people to bear.
When the sun, which had been gone for a long time, rose from the east again, the weather finally cleared up and the sun was shining brightly. The sun shone on the snow like a mirror, making it so bright that it was hard to open your eyes.
"The sun is out, the sun is out!"
"It's finally sunny!"
Some people cheered and gathered around the entrance of the cave to look out at the snowy scene. It was a very shocking sight. The boundless sea of ​​sand turned into a white world, like a fairy palace, sacred and spotless.
Magnificent!
Vast!
Holy Spirit!
The eternal snowy land, the cold power thousands of miles away!
The continuous snow-capped mountains shock the world!
At this time, the four sheep who were also curious and gathered around the entrance of the cave tried to carefully walk out of the cave. As a result, their bodies sank lightly and the whole thing was submerged in the soft snow, leaving only a hole in the place.
Someone went to save the sheep, but in the end he sank into the snow with a pop. After two consecutive days of snowstorm, the snow was higher than a person.
Fortunately, one person and one sheep were not far from the entrance of the cave, so he was able to crawl out on his own.
…
…
The sound of gurgling water filled my ears.
The ice and snow in the desert melt and water seeps downward. When the underground sand is saturated with water and becomes sticky, the water on the ground can no longer drain downwards. Countless small rivers begin to gurgling in the desert.
Today is already half a month after the last blizzard. As the weather has been sunny and sunny for half a month, the weather in the desert has become hot again, and the ice and snow are melting quickly.
A dozen or so people like Jin'an watched the melting snow and water day by day, and finally gathered into a river, winding its way to the hinterland of the low-lying desert basin.
As the snow melted more and more, it continued to wash away the soft sand in the river, and finally there was a huge surging river in the desert, winding like an ancient dragon and extending into the depths of the desert basin.
Like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea, the waves are magnificent.
Seeing the magical scene in front of them of snow and water converging into a big river, Yali and others had shocked expressions on their faces, calling it a miracle, a miracle, this is a miracle.
According to Old Sadiq, even the villagers of Teshsata Village, the closest village to the desert basin, have never seen such a desert miracle.
Although their ancestors occasionally went deep into the desert and approached the desert basin, they never came close in winter.
Because the depths of the desert are surrounded by the Kunlun Mountains and Tianshan Mountains, the cold wind from the Kunlun Mountains vent and the Tianshan Mountain vent will freeze everyone who goes deep into the desert in winter to death in the desert.
The Desert Basin is located in the deepest part of the desert, with depleted water sources, drought and no rain. There are not many desert countries, so there are no merchants from the Western Regions to do business in such a deep place. Without merchants, no country, and no desert people willing to come here, the Desert Basin is
For example, the restricted area of ​​life has been an uninhabited area in the desert since ancient times. In addition, the winter in the desert is very cold, so no one will enter the desert basin in winter, and naturally no one will discover the miracles here.
After all, the desert is too big.
There are too many places where life is forbidden due to lack of water.
Even the villagers of Teshsata Village have never seen the desert miracle in front of them, let alone other outsiders.
First, no one would choose to go into the depths of the desert in winter.
Second, the time is wrong. There are long winters in the desert, and December is just one of them.
Third, even if you go deep into the desert, if you are in the wrong place, you will not be able to see the amazing miracle of nature in front of you. After all, the desert is too big and manpower is limited.
It is precisely because of so many harsh conditions that few people have discovered this miracle in the desert.
As for why the gang of sand bandits happened to appear here at this time, Jin An interrogated them again. Those people were all desperadoes, and their appearance here at this time was purely coincidental.
These sand thieves, who are more greedy than sand wolves, can't sit still and wait for half a year, and then go into the depths of the desert after the spring of next year. They all think that they can explode the hill country and find the treasure as soon as possible, and then spend money and drink with women as soon as possible.
Spend a warm winter on a woman's belly, and don't have to go out to find work in the cold weather.
"Taoist Master Jin'an, the snow is almost gone, why haven't we found the holy mountain of Guchi Country yet? There are all sand dunes here, and there are no mountains in sight?" Yali stood at the entrance of the cave with Jin An, looking at it.
The big river, snowy water, and sand dunes outside were all doubtful.
"Since it is said to be a mountain, it should be a rocky peak, not these sand dunes, right?"
The snow melted for half a month.
They guarded the cave entrance for half a month.
Not even a rock was seen, let alone any mountain peaks.
The surging river outside was still washing away the sediment on both sides of the bank. Looking at the river that had been meandering towards the hinterland of the basin, Jin An pondered and said: "Yali, where do you think this river will end?"
ah?
Yali, who had been craning his neck to find the holy mountain of Guchi Kingdom, didn't realize why Jin An suddenly changed the topic to the river. He was stunned and forgot to answer Jin An's words.
Jin An continued to think to himself and said: "The water flows downwards, and there must be lower-lying places in the hinterland of the basin... Yari, you continue to stay here and take care of the supplies and the camels and sheep. I
Go outside to find a higher place to see which direction the river flows. We have no choice but to wait here. The mountain is a dead thing and will not come to us on its own. We can only rely on us to get out.
Looking for it.”
"But Taoist Jin'an, the sand outside is now filled with snow water, making it difficult for people to walk on it... It's too dangerous outside. Taoist Jin'an, let's not think of other solutions," Yali dissuaded.
At this time, Jin An had turned around and walked back into the cave. He found two wooden boards and tied them under the soles of his shoes. He tested whether the ropes were strong and whether the wooden boards were strong and whether they would affect his normal walking.
To be continued...
