On the way to learn the scriptures, I had a basic relationship with my love rival.

Yellow wind, yellow sand.

A black snake meanders from the east.

A young man in white sat on the snake.

The young man is handsome, especially his eyes.

His eyes were bright and bright, and there was a smile in them.Obviously the corners of his eyes are not turned up, and the corners of his mouth are not curved, but just looking at those eyes, people can't help but feel good about him.

Shaqima also has a good impression of this young man.

The girl from the Western Regions is unrestrained, free and easy, not as shy as the girl from the Central Plains. She drove the camel, walked a few steps out of the caravan, stopped the young man, and waved to him: "Hey!"

The young man heard the sound, looking this way, the big snake under his seat swam over quickly.

Shaqima sat on the camel and asked condescendingly, "Are you alone?"

"Two people." The young man smiled.

Shaqima looked left and right, but in the vast desert, apart from her own caravan, there was no sign of anyone else.

She looked at the young man suspiciously.The young man just happened to smile at her, his smile was as charming as his eyes, Shaqima couldn't help but stare dumbfounded.

"What's the matter?" The young man smiled.

Shaqima came back to her senses and didn't think about the number of people anymore, but asked with a blushing face, "Where are you going?"

The young man said, "I want to go west, west, west."

"Oh." Shaqima said, "You are going to Chechi Country in the west!"

The young man nodded noncommittally.

"Che Chiguo is arresting monks. There are several monks in our caravan, so we never go there to do business." Shaqima said regretfully.

The young man was a little puzzled: "Catch the monk? Why?"

Shaqima explained: "Chechi Kingdom originally advocated Buddhism, but 20 years ago, there was a severe drought in Chechi Kingdom. The king ordered the monks to pray for rain, but they failed to get it. Later, three came Taoist priests, when they prayed for rain, the king immediately respected them as national teachers and changed the national religion to Taoism. Later, the three Taoist priests asked the king to demolish the Buddhist temple and arrest the monks to do coolies."

The young man sighed a few times: "The Dharma is not prosperous, the Dharma is not prosperous."

Shaqima quickly said: "Although we don't want to go late, we still have to go west. We can walk with you until we get out of this desert. You can go with us."

"Thank you." The young man rejected her offer, "But I'm used to walking alone."

"This won't work!" Shaqima said anxiously, "This desert is extremely dangerous, and there is no water source in front of it. It is impossible for you to go out alone without a camel team!"

"Don't worry, I have my own way. Let's take a step first." The young man said, smiled at Shaqima, and drove the snake away.

The big snake swam extremely fast, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Shaqima looked at the direction in which he disappeared, feeling a little melancholy.Sigh, what a handsome man, he looks completely different from our Western Region men.

But she suddenly thought of what the young man said when he left, he said, he said the two of us?

But he obviously only has one person, where did two people come from?

In the scorching desert, Shaqima suddenly felt a chill all over her body.

……

The wind was wrapped in sand and came whistling with a heat wave, which was hot and painful when it hit people.

The sand flew up, revealing piles of white bones beneath the sand.

Human bones, camel bones, wolf bones, fresh ones, old ones... when the wind blows, they all shatter.

Qi Yue leaned lazily on the snake, looking curiously at the desert scenery along the way, as leisurely as if he was on vacation in the desert.

"That woman just now." Chong Jiu said sullenly, "She likes you."

Qi Yue said indifferently: "Maybe."

Chong Jiu's tone was a little happy: "You don't care?"

"Of course not." Qi Yue said, "There are so many people who like me, I've long since become numb."

"Oh." Chong Jiu's tone was a little cold, and he continued to swim forward.

"Xiao Jiu." Qi Yue turned over on the snake and said suddenly, "You're fine."

Chong Jiu's tail suddenly stood up.

He tried his best to calm himself down and asked, "I, what am I doing?"

"You are very cold." Qi Yue said, "It's not hot when you lie down, it's like an ice pillow."

Chong Jiu's tail was put back again, drooping listlessly.

Qi Yue patted him: "I will hold you to sleep at night."

Chong Jiu's tail stood up again with a "swish", swaying and dancing against the strong wind.

……

Qiyue sat in a golden basin, happily taking a bath.

The basin is the little gold basin given by Brother Ming, which can be made bigger or smaller, and the water is made by Qiyue.

Zhao Gongming never imagined that his majestic cornucopia of wealth would sometimes be used as a bath tub by others.

Qi Yue took a shower, got dressed, collected the gold basin, and walked towards Chongjiu.

Chong Jiu had already washed first, and spread a cassock on the ground.

This cassock is the brocade cassock given to the Tang monk by the Buddha. It was woven by Xian'e and machined by goddesses.Because Qiyue went to get scriptures, Tang Seng first lent it to Qiyue.

Anyway, Tang Seng is usually reluctant to wear it, and has been carefully putting it in the package.

This cassock is also a treasure that can be big or small, Qi Yue thinks it is just right to use it to sleep on.

"Go to sleep." Qi Yue took off his shoes and lay down on the cassock.

Chong Jiu said "En", and lay down beside Qi Yue.

Chong Jiu looked up at the sky, the sky in the desert was very deep, there were no clouds in the sky, and he could see the densely packed stars all over the night sky.

He just kept watching, but his body was tense, and he didn't see anything.

He waited for a long time, but he still didn't wait for the person beside him to hug him.

He tilted his head slightly and looked out of the corner of his eye, but saw that the man's chest was heaving and falling, and he had already fallen asleep.

"Big liar, words are nothing." Chong Jiu muttered in a low voice, turned sideways, stretched out his hand hesitantly, and gently hugged him into his arms.

……

The next day, Qi Yue was awakened by Chong Jiu.

He opened his eyes, but did not see the sky.

In all directions, it was all a dark yellow.

Qi Yue was startled, thinking that he had fallen into some kind of cesspit, but when he took a closer look, he found that the surrounding area was covered by a blanket of wild sand.

But not a single grain of sand in the sky could enter within a radius of two feet.

"What's wrong?" Qi Yue asked.

"A huge sandstorm." Chong Jiu said.

"Oh." After Qi Yue finished speaking, he closed his eyes again, planning to go back to sleep again.

Chong Jiu said: "The girl who liked you yesterday, their camel caravan was trapped."

Qi Yue thought for a while in a daze before he remembered who Chong Jiu was talking about.

"Are you going to save them?" Chong Jiu asked.

Qi Yue yawned and stood up.

……

Wind and sand raged.

There is dark yellow everywhere, and only vaguely, people nearby can be seen.

The camels buried their heads in the sand in fear. They didn't dare to run away, so they could only hide in place and wait to die.

Shaqima and her companions covered their mouths, noses and ears with clothes, and their eyes were full of horror.

They held hands and surrounded the city to prevent anyone from being blown away by the strong wind.

But when the sandstorm hit, their bodies gradually became uncontrollable, and their eyes were all darkened.There is dark yellow everywhere, and only vaguely, people nearby can be seen.Nothing could be heard but the howling wind.

Shaqima tightly grasped the hand of her companion, and the wind blew her up several times, but she clenched her teeth and refused to let go.Even if the wrist is about to be crushed, it must not be let go.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, her vision became more and more blurred, and her consciousness became more and more blurred. She felt that she had already floated up.

Suddenly, she felt that she was back on the ground again, and the wind and sand around her seemed to have stopped.Obviously there was still a terrifying whistling sound, but the power of biting people was no longer there.

She opened her eyes in bewilderment, only to see a big snake swaying towards it amidst the wind and sand.

A young man in white sat on the snake.

The young man was still smiling like the one he saw yesterday, his smile was as charming as his appearance.

Where the big snake swam, the wind and sand gradually stopped.

Shaqima and her companions couldn't believe their eyes at all. They knelt on the ground and stared blankly at the person and snake in front of them until they swam out of their sight.

……

Qi Yue and Chong Jiu stood not far away, looking at the tall city gate ahead.

Merchants from the north and the south came and went, filing in.

"Let's go." Qi Yue said.

Chong Jiu nodded, and walked forward side by side with him.

When they arrived at the gate of the city, an inspecting soldier stopped them: "Hey, what are you doing?"

Qi Yue thought about it and said, "Let's go to learn scriptures."

"Learn the scriptures?" The soldier was stunned, and immediately turned around and shouted, and dozens of soldiers rushed over.

They all held weapons and surrounded the two of them cautiously.

Qi Yue looked puzzled: "What happened to them?"

Chong Jiu said in a low voice: "It seems that you said to learn from scriptures."

Qi Yue belatedly remembered the words of the girl along the way, this is a country where Buddha is forbidden!

After a while, another large group of soldiers came, surrounded by a little Taoist priest who was shaking the floating dust.

The little Taoist priest is not very old, he looks only sixteen or seventeen years old, his facial features are handsome, but there is still a little immature between his brows.He looked at the two of them viciously, and said in a vicious tone, "Hey, are you going to learn Buddhist scriptures?"

"Yes." Qi Yue said, "We are going to the Great Qin Kingdom to get the Bible!"

Chong Jiu touched the cassock in the package silently.

The little Taoist was taken aback for a moment, but his confidence was no longer so strong: "Get the Bible?"

"That's right." Qi Yue walked over with a warm smile on his face.He made a sign of the cross on his chest, "Friend, do you understand our Christianity? Do you believe in God? Are you willing to bathe in God's grace? Jesus Christ will bless you with his broad mind and powerful strength!"

The hostility in the little Taoist's brow turned into embarrassment, he stammered and waved his hands: "Well, I am Taoist. I don't believe in Nestorianism."

Qi Yue went over affectionately and held his hand: "What? Do you believe in Sanqing? It's okay, come on, I'll sell you some indulgences. When the end comes, those who buy the coupons will be able to become God’s chosen ones, go to heaven to eat, drink, drink, and whore! Do you have a wife, children, and mother? Buy more and go home!”
