"Thank you, senior, for informing me."

"How are you doing?"

"Senior, don't worry, I will deal with it myself."

"..."

When Song You woke up, he was still in the cave.

Even the fire in the cave has not been completely extinguished, but there is no open flame. The wood still shines with scarlet light, and bursts of warmth come from there.

Our Sanhua Empress transformed into a human form and was wiping the freshly washed pots and bowls with a clean handkerchief, wiping off the water and putting them in her luggage.

"You just woke up? You just slept for a short while, and Empress Sanhua just rode a tiger to wash the dishes." The girl heard his movements and turned to look at him like lightning.

"Miss Sanhua, thank you for your hard work..."

"Ms. Sanhua, thank you for your hard work! Are you going to sleep?"

"Already woke up."

"Just for a little while~"

"It's just that I feel sleepy after eating porridge. There is no need to sleep for too long."

"I'm tired of eating!"

"After eating, especially after eating rice and noodles, you will feel satisfied in your belly, your body will be warm, your head will feel a little groggy, and you want to sleep." Song You paused for a moment, "The softer the cooked rice and noodles, the better.

The more you eat, the worse it becomes."

"Rice noodles?"

Sanhua Empress had wiped all the pots, dishes, and chopsticks clean of water and put them into her luggage. She turned around and sat cross-legged facing him. After thinking about it carefully, she was surprised to realize that it seemed like this was really the case.

Mao'er rarely ate rice and noodles before. Since she followed the Taoist priest for longer and deeper, she started to eat some rice and noodles. She ate more and less each time. She didn't know anything before the Taoist priest told her.

After the Taoist priest said this, she remembered that sometimes when she ate too much rice and noodles, she seemed to feel dizzy and wanted to sleep.

It's just that cats are lazy and sleepy. Although Sanhua Empress is not lazy, she is also a sleepy one. Her sleep is fragmented, and she often feels sleepy and wants to sleep. Sometimes she falls asleep anywhere, and sometimes she is full of energy and intense play.

If you want to ignore it and continue to do your own thing, you will naturally not notice it and just treat it as a normal sleepiness.

Now that I think about it, it's not so obvious after eating the rat.

Empress Sanhua couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

After thinking deeply, I came to the conclusion:

"Rice noodles are poisonous!"

"No..."

"It's just poisonous! I'll make myself dizzy after eating it! Rats are not poisonous!"

"..."

Song You was too lazy to talk to her, so he lazily got up, straightened his clothes, and said to her, "We are going to the west next."

"West?"

"Longzhou, Western Region, west of Shadu."

"when are we leaving?"

"It's best now," the Taoist said, "and you have to fly faster. You don't need to fly at full speed, but it's faster than normal. It's best to arrive before dusk today."

"OK!"

The girl's expression was serious and serious, and she was not sloppy. As soon as she agreed, she immediately bent down, picked up the luggage on the ground and started to walk outside.

"Would this be too hard for Miss Sanhua?"

"No! Not at all!"

"That's all thanks to Empress Sanhua."

"Yes!"

Girls are full of energy and vitality, feel happy because they have contributed, and feel satisfied that they can embody value. Such people have a beautiful contagion that can make Song You feel better, even if he is about to

It doesn't seem to hurt him to face the number one general in Tiangong, Jin Lingguan, the long-established chief of the fighting department.

Spring has returned to the Venerable Mountain. Among the mountains, a white crane flew straight into the clouds and headed west.

…

There are trade routes deep in the desert, with camel bells ringing.

The weather is still hot, and the drought has not eased. In the desert, only a few extremely drought-tolerant plants can grow between the gravel and gravel. They are almost invisible from a distance. The already pitiful water vapor on the ground continues to evaporate under the high temperature.

, distorting the air and adding to the hot feeling.

The chaos in Dayan has intensified, and the control of the DPRK and China over the border areas has obviously declined. It is impossible to say that it has no impact on the Silk Road. However, the gold everywhere on the Silk Road still attracts countless merchants to come and go in an endless stream.

This is the driest place and the longest road, crossing the Gobi and uninhabited for thousands of miles, has become the first pass on the Silk Road.

Fortunately, there is Huayan Mountain in the middle, which is where the trade routes converge. In the past, it was a place where business travelers could rest in the shade. There is also a dripping spring at the foot of Huayan Mountain, also called the Immortal Spring. It was left by the gods in the desert a few years ago.

A sacred spring in the water allowed this trade route to be maintained, so that passing business travelers could replenish their drinking water and avoid dying of thirst.

This is probably the most crowded and lively place on the entire Silk Road.

"Hey! Camels can't enter the spring!"

"Whoever dares to let a camel, horse or mule enter the spring and urinate and defecate by the spring will be beaten to death!"

"..."

Someone yelled angrily at the top of their lungs.

Someone was so panicked that he quickly pulled the disobedient camel back.

Deep in the desert, life-saving springs, whether left by gods or not, should be respected by passers-by. This is the way for people walking in the desert to save themselves and live in the world.

The spring water is crystal clear, reflecting many figures on the shore. Camels are kneeling and bowing their heads to drink water. The people coming and going are dressed in different clothes and have different appearances. It is obvious that they come from different countries and regions. There is also a young Taoist holding a bamboo stick and carrying

A girl wearing three-color clothes walked by.

"It's good to have cranes. We used to walk for a long time before we passed there. Now that there are cranes, we can fly there in no time."

The girl turned her head left and right and looked around, seemingly feeling a little emotional.

"That's different."

The Taoist stopped and bent down to drink some water.

The spring water is clear and sweet in the mouth.

Seeing this, the girl also took off her water bag and bent down to fill it with water.

"Don't step in with your feet!"

Another different voice shouted loudly.

When Sanhua Empress heard the scolding, she subconsciously thought it was her. She quickly looked down and stepped back a little. She found that she had not stepped into the water. She followed the sound and found that the person was scolding another person in her team.

, she turned her head and looked at the group of people for a while, then looked down at the spring water in front of her, with a subtle look on her face. She didn't know what she was thinking. Then she shook her head and put aside her thoughts, and continued to fill the water.

There is a sunset in the distance.

"Tonight, please ask Sanhua Empress and Yanzi to wait for me here. I will go for a trip to the depths of the desert." The Taoist straightened up and looked up at the sky, as if he had noticed something. "I will not trouble Sanhua Empress again tomorrow morning."

Crane takes me to Tianjin Mountain."

"where you go?"

"Deep in the desert."

"What to do?"

"I have important matters..."

As the Taoist said this, he turned around and stepped forward with his bamboo stick.

The girl stood by the lake, holding a water bag, and looked at him blankly.

The figure of the Taoist walked further and further away.

In addition to girls, the lakeside was full of business travelers and camels. There were also other people looking at the Taoist with doubtful expressions, feeling familiar, but not daring to confirm.

The foot of Huayan Mountain is too cluttered with camels, rubble falling from the mountain, self-built wooden houses, and shaded shacks. The Taoist man walks among them, and his figure is often obscured. When his figure is blocked by a big stone again, in a just right place

No one saw him, and the moment they looked at him, the Taoist never came out from behind the stone.

The sky is getting darker and darker.

Although the desert has ups and downs, it looks flat from a distance, just like the sea with fine waves. Standing high on the hills, you can see the end of the sky at a glance.

It was already dark above the head, and stars appeared one after another. The glow in the sky was like a dream, which was intoxicating.

"boom!"

A divine light in the night sky connects heaven and earth!
