Daoist Abandoned Wisdom

The snow has stopped and the weather is still cold.In order to reach Gaochang as soon as possible, one day after the snow stopped, they continued westward and set foot on the road to Gaochang.If the itinerary goes well, they will be able to celebrate the New Year in Gaochang Wangcheng.Wait until next year's spring, when the climate gets warmer, and then return to Luoyang.

Sitting in the car, Abo looked left and right at his newly transformed body, touched his hands, feet, and his face, as if he was afraid that all this was fake.

Tao Xinian patted his head and said, "Aren't you tired? I've been playing since morning."

Abo lowered his head, feeling a little dejected, and opened the curtain slightly to see the scenery along the way.He was still dissatisfied with the way he looked.

Outside the car window are continuous sand dunes and the Gobi Desert, with very little grass growing.It looks magnificent and fresh at first, but after a long time, it gets boring, and I just want to see some more green.

After walking on the road for three days, the scenery along the way has not changed. Suddenly, I thought they were just walking in place.There are no people on the road, let alone people, and even the grass is rare.

Tao Xinian felt a little tired, and fell asleep holding the stove all day long.It was warm inside the carriage, but it was freezing cold outside.At night, a bonfire was lit in the leeward side, and a tent was set up to sleep. Fortunately, we could encounter a cave and sleep warmer.If you are unlucky, you can only make do with it.

On the fifth day, their water tank burst, and the water leaked out during the night, and it looked like it was frozen and cracked.There are three water tanks in total, one of them has almost bottomed out, and the broken one is full.That is, they only have one tank of water left to use.

Abo was a little uneasy, and asked Che Anxing that it was difficult to find drinking water on the road.He needs water the most. Without water, he can only sleep.Seeing that it was difficult to supply water on the road, he discussed with Tao Xinian and went to sleep first.When everyone arrived in Gaochang smoothly, wake him up with water.

Now it's freezing cold, and it's quite hard for Ah Bo to follow along the way, so Tao Xinian agreed.

On the sixth day, there were only four of them left.Without Abo, the atmosphere seems a bit dull.

Su Huan was also groggy, and seemed to be more afraid of the cold than Tao Xinian.Tao Xinian glanced at him and asked, "Su Huan, what's wrong with you? You look like you're dying."

"Hey, it's cold!" Su Huan said tremblingly, "I wanted to earn some money to build a house to live in, but I didn't expect it to be so cold along the way, I was going to freeze to death..."

"Otherwise you should sleep too, go to sleep and save some food by the way."

"I'm afraid I'll freeze to death by then, and I won't be able to get the rest of the bounty..."

Tao Xinian: "Ah Yao will burn it for you, he always keeps his word."

"Inhumane! Both of you are inhumane!" Su trembled for a while, stretched out a hand and said, "Lend me the hand warmer for a while!"

"Why don't you buy one? Isn't there one in the town?" Tao Xinian handed the hand stove to Su Huan, and Su Huan took it, holding it in the palm of his hand, and finally stopped trembling.

"It's outrageous for a big man to hold a stove all day long!" he said.

Tao Xinian: "..."

The sound of the wheels gradually died down, and the car stopped.

"It's foggy." It was Che Anxing's voice, "It's strange, there is very little fog here."

Tao Xinian got out of the carriage and stretched his muscles.Not far away, Yuan Yao and Che Anxing got off their horses and were checking the terrain.

They had been walking for half a day, and it was time for their midday rest.Fog generally starts in the morning or evening, and mostly occurs in humid areas.It was midday at this time, and the place was extremely dry, so the fog was really strange.

"There seems to be a cave in front?" Tao Xinian looked forward, and there seemed to be an entrance below a hill of earth.

Che Anxing also saw it, and said, "I'll take a look first to make sure the cave can accommodate us, and then go to avoid the fog."

Che Anxing left, Yuan Yao hugged Tao Xinian and waited for a while, then Che Anxing came back and said, "You can go in."

They led the camels and drove the horses into the cave.There is not much firewood, which is only for occasional emergency needs.Therefore, Yuan Yao called Su Huan, went out to collect firewood and came back, and hunted game by the way.Che Anxing went out to check the terrain, while Tao Xinian stayed in the cave to light the fire.

It was quiet in the cave, Tao Xinian lit the firewood he brought, and the fire was not too big, so he just lit the fire to warm up.Abo is not there, no one talks to him, it is a bit boring.

He threw two dried dates into his mouth, and took out a small piece of dried meat to chew.I'm a little hungry.If he is lucky, Yuan Yao might be able to bring back a wild rabbit just like yesterday.Roast rabbit meat is very fragrant.

Just when he was feeling bored, footsteps came from outside the cave.

Tao Xinian looked up, and it was Yuan Yao who had returned.With a joy on his face, he said, "Ayao, why did you come back first?"

In the thick fog, a rabbit was just about to get into the hole. Yuan Yao quickly grabbed the rabbit by the neck and lifted it up.The gray rabbit was trembling in his hands, with a pitiful expression on his face.

"Ayao? You caught the rabbit!" Tao Xinian's voice came from behind, Yuan Yao turned around, and Tao Xinian was standing not far behind him.

Tao Xinian stepped forward, with a smile on his face, and took the rabbit from Yuan Yao's hand.

"This rabbit is quite cute, it's a pity to eat it." The gray rabbit's eyes are black, like two black gemstones, and it looks a little cute.

"Keep it if you like it, I'll catch another one. Why did you come out? It's foggy outside, be careful not to get lost."

"The fire has been lit, and the car guide is back. Don't worry if he is watching the fire and luggage. I saw that you haven't returned for a long time, and I felt bored, so I went out for a walk. I didn't expect to run into it by chance."

Tao Xinian approached, hugged Yuan Yao's waist with a smile, and kissed him lightly on the lips.

The rabbit had escaped at some point and was hard to find in the thick fog.

"Ayao, I haven't been able to go out with you alone recently, we'll go back later."

There was a crackling sound as the firewood burned, Tao Xinian raised his head from the fire and saw Yuan Yao.

Yuan Yao sat down beside him and put his arms around his shoulders.

"Where is Su Huan?" Tao Xinian asked.Just now, the two of them went out together.

"He's gone to find firewood. I'm worried that you're alone in the cave."

Tao Xinian smiled and said, "What's there to worry about? Ordinary monsters can't hurt me."

In the light of the fire, the atmosphere became inexplicably ambiguous.Yuan Yao moved closer, kissed Tao Xinian's lips lightly, and lifted his chin slightly.

"Ayao? This is not good, they...they will be back soon..." Tao Xinian looked towards the entrance of the cave, his face flushed slightly.

"They won't come back so soon, it will take a while to come back."

He hugged Tao Xinian, and put his hand into his clothes.A small pimple appeared on the skin on his chest, Tao Xinian blushed and pushed Yuan Yao away, saying, "Stop making trouble, it's cold."

Yuan Yao smiled slightly, picked up Tao Xinian, and got into the carriage.The seats in the car are so spacious that they can be used as beds.

Tao Xinian was pressed on the thick cushion, Yuan Yao reached out and untied his belt, and put his hand inside.In fact, it is not cold at all, it is quite warm.

"Stop playing, I'm hungry."

"I'll feed you right now." Instead of stopping, Yuan Yao said such strange words.

Tao Xinian felt that something was wrong, but those light brown eyes seemed to have magical powers, attracting his attention and making him forget everything else.

In the thick fog, everything in the distance cannot be seen clearly.Che Anxing stood in the fog, frowning slightly.This is by no means a simple fog.

He took a few steps forward, and the cave behind him disappeared.A village appeared in front of my eyes, with green mountains and green waters, and flocks of cattle and sheep, it was astonishingly beautiful.That's where he was born.

Che Anxing looked at it quietly for a while, although he felt reluctance in his heart, but his reason told him that he should not indulge any longer, otherwise his consciousness would be swallowed up.

He thought, this is probably the Lost City, the Lost City they tried their best to avoid.Others don't know what to do, he wants to go back as soon as possible.

Yuan Yao pulled out the dagger in his sleeve, put it on Tao Xinian's neck, and said, "You are not him, who are you?"

"Tao Xinian" backed away, but he didn't expect that the moment his right hand touched the relic hanging on Yuan Yao's chest, he was seen through.He smiled and said, "Ayao, what's wrong with you? You're so vigilant."

Yuan Yao pulled out his dragon tooth, but he couldn't do anything to the face in front of him, even though he knew it wasn't Tao Xinian.He looked in the direction he came from, everything was hidden in the fog and he couldn't see clearly.He tried to follow his memory and go the same way, but was stopped by the person in front of him.

"Ayao, why are you ignoring me?" The man smiled at him.

"Go away, or I will be rude."

"Look, you still love me, and you can't do anything to me." The person in front of him seemed to see through his thoughts and smiled brightly.

Yuan Yao pointed Longya at the man and said, "That's not necessarily the case."

In the cave, until his finger touched the birthmark on Tao Xinian's shoulder, he was jolted all over, and suddenly woke up.A distant figure flashed past in front of his eyes, calling back his mind.

"You are not Yuan Yao!"

"Why am I not? You didn't recognize me after you didn't see me for a quarter of an hour?" Yuan Yao smiled slightly.

Tao Xinian frowned, and silently recited a spell, a spell floated into the air.

The man grabbed the talisman, and the talisman instantly turned into powder.

"Who are you? June? Stop making trouble, I don't want to make such a joke."

The man raised his chin and said, "I'm not interested in you. I'm just curious about what kind of fool would dedicate himself to saving people and turn himself into a third-generation evil star."

"You are not June! Where is this place, could it be Lost City?"

The location of the Lost City is just west of Dunhuang, and Che Anxing deliberately avoided the location of the Lost City for safety.But he could feel that in recent days, Che Anxing seemed not very confident about the direction and was extra cautious.But today, there was a thick fog here, and now there was someone who turned into Yuan Yao to tease him. He guessed that this place should be the lost city they wanted to avoid.

"Where is June? You should know him!" June once said that he is a big demon who dominates here.

"So what? He said you're stupid, and I think he's even stupider than you. Although I'm not interested in you, you look pretty good. You haven't done anything with that person yet, have you? I think you understand The way of Taoism can be used for cultivation."

Tao Xinian struggled to get up, but his hands were immobilized and he couldn't move.

"That fool in June, reincarnated once, even his personality is different from his previous life, I don't know what he is nostalgic about."

"What about June? He's back. Where is he? I want to find him."

"Hahahaha, do you want to see him? Don't you want to see him?"

Thinking of Yun Sheng's hurt expression when he left, Tao Xinian's heart tightened.He wasn't sure June would still want to see him.
