In those years, the cultivators we cut together

The next day, early morning.

The scorching sun came as promised, awakening the desolation of the desert with its temperature. Lin Xiaolu, who was sleeping, was also awakened by the sunshine, and sat up from the bedding holding the handsome duck who had just woken up.

"Benefactor Lin, Benefactor Duck, good morning." Wugou who was cooking fried rice at the side greeted them both with a smile, and handed him the Xichen Pill.

Lin Xiaolu let out a long "Ah~" and yawned, then handsomely waved his hands at him in response, Shuai Shuai Duck also quacked twice.

After taking the Xichen Pill, the young man saw that Jiang Ning beside him hadn't woken up yet, so he squatted beside the campfire, staring eagerly at the fried rice in the pot.

"Benefactor Lin, aren't you going to exercise today?" Wugou asked softly while fanning the campfire with a cattail fan.

"I'll go after I finish eating." Lin Xiaolu swallowed while looking at the food, and after he finished speaking, he took a look at Wugou and found that Wugou was always smiling, as if he was very happy.

"What's wrong with you, little monk? Are you smiling so arrogantly?"

"Ahem." Wugou was embarrassed for a moment, then pursed his lips and remained silent.

Seeing his constipated expression, Lin Xiaolu suddenly felt something wrong, and immediately asked sternly: "Are you hiding something from me when you are so happy? Tell me!"

Wugou choked on Lin Xiaolu's words, he didn't dare to look him in the eyes, he lowered his head and stammered: "Young monk did a good thing last night, so I'm happy in my heart."

"Oh? What good did you do? Tell me and Shuai Shuai Ya."

"The monk doesn't say anything."

Wugou sullenly said: "If the little monk says so, Lin benefactor will definitely blame the little monk for meddling in his own business."

As soon as these words came out, Lin Xiaolu was stunned for a moment, then after thinking about it, he immediately guessed the whole story and glared directly:

"Are you so happy to collect protection fees by yourself! Wugou, I misunderstood you, we broke up!"

Shuai Shuai Duck also put his small wings on his fat waist and yelled loudly: "That's right, you don't call me big brother for such a fun thing, brother!"

Seeing that the two of them misunderstood him, Wugou, who was only 13 years old, felt wronged in his heart, and his eyes couldn't help turning red.

And just as Lin Xiaolu was fighting Wugou vigorously, Jiang Ning, who was on the foreshadowing, suddenly groaned in discomfort.

……

……

In the afternoon, in the golden desert, Wugou was leading the camel, and the camel was marching unhurriedly with the handsome duck on its back.

Lin Xiaolu followed Wugou, carrying the unconscious Jiang Ning on his back, asking questions as he walked:

"A Ning, haven't you also practiced martial arts? How can you still be infected with febrile diseases?"

Facing Lin Xiaolu's question, the hot-headed Jiang Ning didn't even have the energy to answer. He could only lie limply on Xiaolu's back, hugging his neck, silently enduring the heat and discomfort in his body.

"The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is too great. Even though benefactor Jiang is a martial artist, she is a daughter after all, her vitality is no better than that of a man, and it is inevitable to be infected with febrile disease." Wugou said with a sigh.

Lin Xiaolu was helpless, his neck was itchy from Jiang Ning's scorching breath, and he murmured as he carried her on his back:

"Growing so big, only my sister has been carried by me. You are the second. If you succeed in restoring the country and become the queen of the Tang Dynasty, you must remember how good I am to you. Give me and my sister two As a high-ranking official, whenever I don’t want to mess around in Emei, I’ll come and play with you, and then I’ll go and bully those corrupt officials, landlords and rich people.”

Jiang Ning was so uncomfortable that he didn't want to talk, so he pinched him with his small hands, but Lin Xiaolu couldn't feel the force at all.

For a whole day, Xiaolu carried Jiang Ning on his back the whole time, but Jiang Ning's body temperature still didn't drop, and he was in a daze. This is why Lin Xiaolu and Wugou didn't dare to put her on the camel, for fear that she would be in a daze. fall down again.

Soon, the night came again, the cold wind picked up again, and the temperature dropped again. Wugou lit a big bonfire to keep Jiang Ning warm. A wall of sand sheltered her from the wind.

Jiang Ning just sat by the campfire, leaning against the sand wall with a flushed face, murmuring unconsciously.

Seeing this, Wugou and Lin Xiaolu were in a hurry, fearing that she would become stupid if she continued like this. There are many poor people who become stupid due to febrile diseases and persistent hot flashes. If Jiang Ning becomes a fool, there will be more people in the future How to restore the country?

"Fawn benefactor, the porridge is ready."

Wugou handed Lin Xiaolu a bowl of fried rice porridge. Lin Xiaolu noticed his change of address and laughed at him.

Then he brought rice porridge to feed Jiang Ning.

Although his words were incoherent and he disliked Jiang Ning inside and out, his movements were very gentle. Every time he would blow the hot rice porridge to cool down, and then gently feed it into the girl's mouth. His Taoist robe was flushed, and he was eating in small bites. Both of them sat under the stars in the desert night, reflecting the firelight, one feeding the porridge and the other drinking the porridge, silent and silent.

Seeing this scene, Wugou gave Shuai Shuai Ya a bowl of porridge with a smile, and said with a smile:

"The little deer benefactor is actually a very gentle person."

Shuai Shuai Duck flapped his wings after hearing his words: "You can tell from my elder brother's skillful appearance, this is definitely not the first time that elder brother has fed porridge to others like this."

"Oh? Is the little deer benefactor very good at taking care of people?" Wugou asked curiously.

"Don't ask Ben Ya, Ben Ya doesn't know about Big Brother's past." After speaking, Shuai Shuai Duck flapped his little wings and gorged himself on the rice porridge.

Soon, a bowl of hot porridge was fed. Lin Xiaolu touched Jiang Ning's forehead and found that it was still very hot. After thinking about it, he rolled up his sleeves and raised his hand to stick it in the ground.

"puff!"

With a soft sound, under his violent strength, the whole forearm was directly inserted into the depths of the sand, and then the cold sand was pulled out from it.

"What's the reason for the little deer benefactor?" Wugou who saw this scene asked in bewilderment.

Lin Xiaolu laughed and explained: "Ah Ning's brain is too hot, it will definitely burn her brain if it goes on like this. My sister also suffered from febrile disease when she was a child. It was a snowy day, and the storyteller in the village went to freeze it. I took some ice cubes from the river, wrapped them in a cloth and applied them on my sister’s forehead, saying it was called physical cooling.”

"Physical cooling?" Wugou was taken aback, what is this?

"I don't know too well, anyway, the effect is not bad."

Lin Xiaolu continued to explain: "The desert is scorched by the sun during the day, but it won't be so hot at night, especially the underground sand, which is as cold as ice, which can treat Ah Ning's illness."

After finishing speaking, he took out the handkerchief that Jiang Ning carried with him, wrapped the frozen sand, and applied it to the girl's hot forehead.

Seeing this scene, Wugou clasped his hands together and marveled beside the bonfire:

"The little deer benefactor is really wise."

"Haha, what is this, little monk, your Dharma is powerful, and that is great wisdom."

Lin Xiaolu had a rare moment of humility, came to sit by the campfire, smiled while drinking porridge: "Compared to your Dharma, I am just a small way."
