Stepping out of the desolate, dead, and smelly darkest valley, it was early in the morning, and wisps of dazzling winter sunlight shone on the endless sky.
Yan Mei raised her head to face the sun, squinted her eyes, and took a deep breath. A burst of sweet and refreshing air rushed into her lungs... Suddenly she looked back and saw the hundreds of thousands of mountains, and her heart palpitated.
"We made it out alive!"
Su Hanting, who was at the forefront of the team, looked back and shouted excitedly, with tears in her eyes.
Quiet, very quiet, very quiet. There is no picture of her longing for people walking out of the valleys to be happy and cheering during her journey in the mountains and valleys.
This ragged and exhausted team stands silently in a ray of dappled sunshine. Their hungry and thin faces reveal a stubborn strength. The teenagers are even more motivated, clinging to each other, steel swords in their hands.
But it shines... This is a team with an iron will.
…
Everyone walked forward to a remote and uninhabited official road, and Su Hanting felt that their direction was a little south.
On a hill next to the official road, there is a damaged boundary monument, and three words can be vaguely discerned: "Bhara Kingdom".
There is no one on the official road, and there are no border guards stationed there. It can be seen that this is an open and tolerant country.
The sun rose higher and higher, and the sunlight became warmer and warmer. Under the sunlight, the three remaining horses carrying groceries in the team spread their hooves and neighed happily; the atmosphere in the team became much more lively.
, especially the laughter of the teenagers, which infected the happy atmosphere of the entire team.
Su Hanting stood in front of a piece of flat and clean land. There was a sound of "Crack!" and the trembling sword that was unsheathed shone coldly in the sunlight.
Her wrist shook slightly, and the sword was inserted vertically into the ground. Then she bent down slightly, picked up a small stone and placed it on the top of the shadow of the sword. Then she stood up and walked to Yu Mei's side, whispering in a low voice.
For about a quarter of an hour, the shadow of the sword walked a certain distance with the change of sunlight. Yu Mei walked to the top of the shadow of the sword, pulled out the dagger from her waist, made a mark, and then drew a straight line between the two points.
of straight lines.
She stood up and used her hand to draw the vertical angle of the straight line, turned around and glanced at Su Hanting, pointing ahead, "Due to the north, that's over there!"
…
Passing through a piece of Gobi Desert, an arch bridge made of bluestone comes towards you... Walking across the arch bridge, it seems that you have entered a completely different world. The sun shines down lazily, and the air of peace and harmony rises. It is like welcoming the guests from afar.
Guest, introduce him to a world of peace, tranquility and love.
The sound of the crowd's footsteps startled a group of foraging birds. They chirped and flew past the crowd. They were so happy.
Gui Gan also suddenly got up, bent down to pick up the pebbles, and with a flick of his wrist, the pebbles flew into the sky with a "whoosh" sound.
"Boom!"
A little bird fell to the ground... The other birds screamed and flew away. Only one mournful bird, regardless of the danger, circled around the fallen bird and refused to leave...
Seeing this scene of life and death, these battle-hardened warriors felt so sad that it was indescribable...especially the young man who had just returned from the line of life and death.
"What a cute little bird, why are your hands so mean?"
Gui Dui (Lazhen) bit her thin red lips, her eyes full of anger, and kicked Gui Gan on the butt.
"I, I was wrong...it was really unintentional!" Guigan apologized, covered his butt with his hands, and scampered away.
"Hmph! Your unintentional act turned out to be a fresh life for the little bird!"
Gui Dui stamped her feet and still shouted loudly.
When the remaining little sisters saw this, they scolded each other, jumped up one after another, and rushed towards Gui...
Guigan was weak-footed and had a guilty conscience, so she panicked and didn't choose the path. After running a few steps, she fell down under the bridge... causing the girls standing by the bridge to bend down and laugh.
…
The official road is a winding road built along the mountains. The plains at the foot of the mountains are vast fields. A few white yurts are dotted beside a winding river not far away, with curls of drinking smoke floating in the air and blowing the face. In the wind, you can faintly hear the cry of the lamb "baa baa... baa"
After nearly two hours of long journey, they finally arrived at a small town called Tuke.
This group of strangers with disheveled clothes and sallow faces had just stepped into the town, and the herdsmen in the town stopped to watch and whisper.
Several children playing on the street were very surprised when they saw strangers. They jumped up and down and followed the crowd. From time to time they tilted their heads and smiled innocently, looking at everyone with their big curious eyes, which were crystal clear.
The small market in the town was filled with the fragrant smell of barbecue and the tangy aroma of milk tea...tormenting everyone's hunger nerves.
"Have a rest and eat on the spot!" Yu Mei said in a calm and concise tone.
There are no restaurants or bars in the town. Diners gather around and sit on the floor next to the barbecue restaurant. The dining atmosphere is natural and relaxed.
Su Hanting, who was generous and generous with her money and sweet-tongued, was quickly loved by the nearby herdsmen. The herdsmen slowly gathered around her with enthusiasm... The hungry people, taking into account their self-esteem and face, naturally ate wine and chewed meat in a much gentler manner.
When the herdsmen learned that Yu Mei and the others came out of the polar valley, the herdsmen suddenly became quiet. "That is the valley dominated by evil gods." Someone whispered in fear.
Everyone had an incredible expression, and some even opened their mouths and stared in surprise... This legendary story soon spread throughout half of the town.
This is a nomadic nation that believes in the existence of spirits in all things, advocates wisdom and prophets, and has simple and fierce folk customs.
Suddenly a crisp ringing sound came... "I am grateful to the God of Immortality for making my dream prophecy come true, and I can see the warriors in the distance."
The ringing of the bell was mixed with a sincere female voice, and Yu Mei hurriedly raised her eyes to see a woman wearing a colorful mask approaching, followed by several young and handsome "Honorary Guards" with swords behind her.
When the shepherds saw the woman, they hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Welcome and pray for the 'Guide', good luck and good health!"
The woman has a light gait, a bun on her head, a bell tied around her waist, and a dazzling sapphire on her chest. Her long, straight robe is decorated with animal teeth, her clear eyes, full of smiles, and she bows humbly. Body, "I am the dream walker, the guide of wisdom."
Yu Mei hurriedly raised her hands and cupped her fists to return the salute, "I wish you all my blessings to the 'Guide' Master."
"Warriors of the Eastern Land, you are the good fortune given to us by the Changsheng Heaven. Your pure spiritual fire has defeated the bloodthirsty art of the Darkest Ghost King, allowing the children of the Changsheng Heaven, women and animals, to be safe and sound..."
The woman danced gracefully, raised her head and breathed out a stream of fire... she stretched her hands towards the sky, and her voice was high-pitched and melodious.
It was as if this flame suddenly ignited the entire atmosphere... The herdsmen presented high-quality barbecue and milk tea, and gathered everyone in the center to sing and dance, expressing their high respect.
Fire! The fire of the soul! It is the ancient totem of the shepherds. The raging fire is the sharp blade for the shepherds to fight against the bloodthirsty spell of the "Darkest Ghost King"!
Everyone was immersed in the joyful singing and laughter, relieved of physical and mental fatigue... Several young people couldn't help but jumped up and merged into the singing and dancing.
Yan Mei suddenly felt that her eyes were a little moist.
