lost narrative poem

Chapter 486 Interlude

"Big cakes, delicious big cakes, if you don't smell good, you don't need money..."

Not far from the Che Ma Yi, there is a dark-faced uncle who seems to be quite worn by the wind and sand in the Western Regions. He is setting up a stall and selling the local characteristic greasy pancakes.

Speaking of which, all the customs of the Western Regions are very different from those of the Central Plains, not only the clothing, architecture, but also the food culture. The three of them already knew about it yesterday, because what the Che Ma Yili basically provides is hand-picked rice. And special diets such as milk tea.

It is precisely this difference that made them deeply realize that this is indeed not the Central Plains. Yesterday's Chenzhou City was already thousands of miles away, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, a distance that most people would never be able to cross in their lifetime.

"Big pie!"

After walking out of the carriage station, Yun Tianhe was immediately attracted by the scent, and immediately locked the direction of the source of the scent, confirmed that it was the breakfast that Han Lingsha had just mentioned, so he ran over without stopping.

Han Lingsha yelled a few times, and found that the other party was deaf, so she could only helplessly follow behind.When she was in Taiping Village, she still remembers the bloody incident caused by a zongzi.

People like Yun Tianhe can't be generalized, even if they go to get a takeaway, they might fight with the delivery guy, and then turn into a bloody case, Han Lingsha naturally It is impossible to rest assured that he can move by himself.

Liu Mengli didn't follow, but waited quietly not far from the car horse post, watching the two of them walk away. After all, it was just a matter of buying breakfast, and everyone didn't need to go to battle together.

Although it was still morning at this time, Boxian Town was already very lively.

After all, the town used to be called Qiemo County, and it has always been an important town on the Silk Road. It just happened to be located at the foot of the Kunlun peaks where the Qionghua School is located, and was protected by the Sword Immortal, so it was later renamed Boxian Town .

However, changing the name will not affect the actual status, so there are many merchants in the town, and many people from the Central Plains come to the Western Regions to do business here, and Boxian Town is the most important transit point.

And the business of Che Ma Yi is naturally very good, gradually becoming the largest building in the town, and it is busy from sunrise to sunset every day.

Moreover, the horses next to the chariots and horses are calculated on the basis of tens or hundreds of horses every day, and people have to be hired to take care of them, and they have to keep watch at night... By analogy, it is like some horses in later generations. Big hotel, the feeling that the parking lot outside is full every day.

The three of them were able to find a room to stay in yesterday, only because the recent horse thieves were a little rampant and robbed many merchants, which made the recent business situation not very ideal.

So from an objective perspective, it was not a wise choice for Liu Mengli to choose to stand on the open ground in front of the door... However, the actual result was that it had no effect, and did not cause any disturbance at all.

He was obviously very beautiful, but he seemed to be ignored by the passers-by. There was no strong onlooker phenomenon, and no one even stopped to marvel.

It's not that the folk customs are simple, or that people in this era have such a high vision that they don't even pay attention to a stunning beauty like Liu Mengli. It's just because she is also proficient in illusion and can easily mislead and confuse irrelevant people's attention. .

——This is probably a certain common ability that all people who have lit up specializations such as dreams, illusions, spirituality, and advanced routes will use some kind of common ability, because it is really convenient and can save too many unnecessary troubles .

But it also depends on the concept, character and moral level of the person involved, otherwise, it will also cause great harm, so Liu Mengli has always been very cautious. In the end, he could only erase the memory of those soldiers who saw them——

Obviously, she is very measured, but she still thinks it is not good to do this, because she feels that memory is the most important thing for people, and the act of taking it casually seems too cruel.

"I heard that there was a village in the desert where the water was cut off, and the whole village was almost buried in yellow sand. What a crime..."

"Thanks to God's blessing, we live at the foot of the fairy mountain."

"The wind and sand in the Western Regions has always been heavy, and there has been little rain. Their village has cut down all the trees and sold them for money. What can they do..."

"I've also heard that it seems that the entire Crescent River Valley has dried up, and everyone in the village has run away, leaving only some old and weak women and children who can't walk..."

A group of merchants tied their horses in the open space next to the carriage and horse station, and then unloaded all the goods. While walking into the carriage and horse station, while discussing something, they just walked past the quiet girl.

Slightly raising her eyebrows, the girl pondered for a while, and asked in a low voice, "Master Xia, what kind of place is deep in the desert?"

When she was brought by the Qionghua faction before Yujian, she overlooked the entire Boxian Town and the surrounding situation from a high altitude, and naturally knew that the town was surrounded by an oasis, like a beautiful pearl on the desert sea.

Walking out of the town to the south, you don't need a day's journey to reach the real foot of Kunlun Fairy Mountain. There is a river flowing down from the mountain, giving birth to the entire oasis. It runs through the center of Boxian Town and winds through, bringing water. and vitality.

The pearl of the sand sea, lush and lush, with lush water and grass...

However, outside the oasis, there is a vast sea. The vast Gobi desert is endless and vast, as if the waves of the ocean have frozen, and the folds of the waves are like frozen waves, extending to the distance.

There are still many cacti growing near the oasis, but the further you go outside, the more desolate and lifeless it becomes.It can be said that this is the first time Liu Mengli has seen the desert, and she only read about it in books before.

"Deep in the desert? Naturally, it's still a desert, there's nothing else..."

The wave of divine will came out, and Xia Ran's voice sounded in the girl's consciousness, as calm and natural as if she was chatting while drinking tea.

Anyway, Liu Mengli didn't care, so he had nothing to be afraid of, just treat it as chatting remotely through instant messaging software, as long as he adjusted his mentality, there would be no problem at all.

"What about the other side of the desert?" The girl looked as usual.

"That's the end of land and land, and beyond that is the sea. At the end of the sea is a bottomless abyss. Every moment, countless huge amounts of sea water pour down like waterfalls, but they can never fill up the bottom. It should be It's the end of the human world..."

Naturally, Xia Ran can answer it. This world is not a world view like the earth, but a round place. The entire universe was created by Pan Gu, and the human world is the same.

Although there are Kyushu in the world and the Western Regions of the Central Plains, there are barbarians outside, and Tianzhu exists, perhaps because the influence of Buddhism has also penetrated into this world... But other countries and continents that can be found on modern maps, It really doesn't exist anymore.

He also visited Tianya Haijiao curiously, and the result was as expected, as if it was the "end of the world" in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, and the human world did indeed have a real end.

He also tried to go down the huge abyss at the end of the world, but the result was not surprising. It seemed that he was washed into the abyss by countless tons of sea water far exceeding the weight of the mountains, and then he found himself appearing In the borderlands of the ghost world.

——Pangu's body disintegrated and turned into the earth. All creatures lived together on the sunny side of the earth, and the dark side of the earth became a ghost world, a place for the reincarnation of all races...

Xia Ran has confirmed the authenticity of this legend with personal experience, and it is the kind that can be verified from the physical level, but it is a pity that it is useless.

Liu Mengli nodded lightly, thoughtfully, but didn't say anything more.Although what the merchants said just now did touch her heart, but that's all. Her temperament is relatively cold, and she won't waste a lot of time on irrelevant people.

She will also feel pity for other people's pity, and help if she can... But the premise is that they happen to meet each other. If there is a disaster happening far away, she will not think that she has to rush there. , Save the people from the fire and water.

"Good dream glass~"

The iconic shout sounded, and Han Lingsha finally came back, followed by Yun Tianhe, who was feasting and eating the delicious pancake with a happy face behind her.

For the savage on the top of the mountain, it is probably the happiest moment of the day, and a person who is easy to satisfy like him can feel the happiest moment many times a day... In a sense, it is true Envy.

"I've been waiting for a long time~ Mengli, do you want to eat now? Choose which one you want..."

The red-clothed girl approached fawningly and said enthusiastically.She wanted to make amends for her previous actions, or add an extra layer of insurance.

This is not considered mutual harm at all, because she can say whatever she wants, and at most it's just embarrassing Mengli for a while, but that person is not here at all, and Yun Tianhe doesn't understand these things at all.

But Liu Mengli's backhand strike precisely hit her fatal spot - because Yun Tianhe is here, although he still doesn't understand, but Han Lingsha always feels that if this matter is said like this, she must Will die of shame and indignation.

"No, thank you." Liu Qianjin smiled, but declined Han Lingsha's kindness.

The girl in red didn't think too much about it either. She knew that this person had extremely powerful spiritual power.

"Then I'll keep it as dry food and eat it slowly on the road. It could have been faster, but there is someone who doesn't know what to do. It seems to be a mess..."

Han Lingsha gave Yun Tianhe another cake, then wrapped the remaining dry food in cloth, and said angrily and funnyly——

"The boss said that the unsavory ones don't need money, so he went to buy ten unsavory ones. Meng Li, you didn't see that. The boss's bearded and staring expression at that time probably didn't expect such people to exist in this world..."

"is it?"

Miss Qianjin in blue-purple gauze couldn't help laughing, but when she looked at the stall over there, she didn't see anyone messing around.
