Heroes of the Fantasy World

Chapter 371 Returning to the Heart Like an Arrow
(2)

It is said that when the three people who had just returned to the journey found Shen Qiongzhi following behind, they immediately began to discuss how to deal with her.

But seeing that Shen Qiongzhi's clothes were simple, and even looked a bit vulgar. Different from the elegant and light clothes she wore when she lived in the Holy Land, she wore the most common coarse cloth clothes, and at the same time carried a large gray and black burden on her body.

Every time she takes a step forward, she seems to exert all her strength, wiping the sweat while walking on the road, because the heavy burden on her shoulders makes it difficult for her to even raise her head to see the rough road ahead.

After walking for a long while, Shen Qiongzhi was really overwhelmed by the load. He put the burden on the ground and stretched his limbs. At this time, he and Baifeng and his party met at a distance of several miles.

Seeing this, Thorn was about to ride forward to help, but Bai Feng immediately stopped her and said: "We don't need to be nosy, since Miss Shen came here without announcing it, there must be her reasons, why should we bother ourselves What? Presumably, after experiencing the hardships of the grassland and Gobi, she will turn back in just one day, right?"

"But, she's alone...she's a girl who has never walked out of the Holy Land by herself." Thorn was full of doubts, and bluntly said, "Brother, you are not usually like this!"

Bai Fengwang waved to Shen Qiongzhi, grinned, and replied: "Ah Jing, you still don't understand, Miss Shen doesn't trust us, maybe she will do something outrageous to us, I don't worry about taking her with me , but we can't drive her away openly, because it will reveal that our true thoughts are not in the Holy Land."

"Sorry, I didn't think of so many things." Thorn nodded in thought and sighed.

Murong Yan sat sideways on the saddle, and said to the thorns: "Let's try to walk as slowly as possible, so that Miss Shen can keep up with us? Anyway, we don't have to travel all day and night for this trip, and we can walk as easily as possible." the road, don't worry about the time."

The other two listened and quickly agreed.The three set off with whips.

It was night, the sky was cloudless, and the strong wind blew the grass waves, so that the fragile weeds on weekdays could also have the ability to scrape off the girl's skin.

Shen Qiongzhi was located not far from Baifeng and his party. After setting up a camp with great painstaking efforts, her palms and forearms were already covered with bloodstains. Next, she had to solve her own food and clothing problems.

She dug out a small hole in front of the tent with a poke to use as a fire kang, and then took out exquisite pottery kitchen utensils, lacquerware tableware, and some meager food such as tea, dried fruits, and wild vegetables from the big bag. Feel free to use a bag of water and cook a pot of soup to satisfy your hunger.

Seeing her being so strange, Bai Feng couldn't help stepping forward and asking: "Miss Shen, you actually packed such a small amount of food in such a big bag?"

"Don't you still want to see my jokes?" Shen Qiongzhi sat on a small ponytail, pretended to put down the delicate bowls and chopsticks, and replied, "I can do what you wish now?"

"This is different from the Holy Land. If you only eat this little, you will faint from hunger and be picked up by a pack of wolves on the grassland after two days." Bai Feng reached out and handed a piece of grilled lamb chops, and continued: "Your body is too thin, It is impossible to go to Yuyi Town."

Shen Qiongzhi said: "I have never eaten meat, and I don't eat meat either."

"Okay." Bai Feng finished, gnawed on the mutton chops and walked back. Before leaving, he did not forget to joke with Shen Qiongzhi: "If you are too hungry, don't force yourself!"

After hearing this, Shen Qiongzhi continued to pretend to be lofty, ignored it, packed up the dishes after a quick meal, and went back to the tent to rest.She slept soundly that night, maybe she was still looking forward to reaching Yuyi Town before the food and water ran out.

On the first and second day, she was able to get by, but after the third, fourth, and fifth day, she began to suffer from food and water shortages. This is not something that can be solved by simply relying on gods.

Shen Qiongzhi's physical condition is getting worse and worse. Although her will to continue walking is not depressed, her limbs that are gradually losing strength can no longer support her to walk faster. Sometimes Bai Feng and others, in order to accommodate her steps, They even had to dismount and walk together.

In terms of age, Shen Qiongzhi is not as old as Murong Yan, but her figure is far thinner than Murong Yan.She looks thin and thin, but has an unusually strong temper, and she still wants to accomplish the impossible even though she is powerless.

On the night of the sixth day, she still did not choose to turn back.

Opening the bag, the remaining half of the bag of clean water is almost used up, and the so-called food has already been exhausted.She lay in the tent, drank a sip of water to satisfy her hunger when she was hungry, and barely fell asleep.

This was probably the most desperate night in Shen Qiongzhi's life, because soon there was another gust of wind on the grassland, and the tent with a weak foundation was crumbling. She could no longer cope with it, so she could only curl up on the straw mat and shiver.

After a while, the strong wind toppled the unsecured roof, but after a while, the wooden poles stuck in the soil were also uprooted. This seemed like a dream to the sleepy Shen Qiongzhi, who was close to losing consciousness at this time.

Before she was about to faint, several familiar voices lingered around her from a distance, and then, a long-lost warmth enveloped her cold heart. She licked her lips and tasted a sweet The spicy taste is very strange, but it is not annoying at all.

"Miss Shen, are you awake?" Murong Yan lightly rubbed Shen Qiongzhi's cheek with the back of her hand, and said, "It's so cold, drink some warm wine to warm yourself up?"

"I don't want you to help me, let me go." Shen Qiongzhi was about to get up before she finished speaking. At this time, Bai Feng just took a piece of mutton into the account, and said, "Miss Shen, this piece of meat is specially reserved for you. There is no bone in this piece of meat." , eat slowly."

When Shen Qiongzhi smelled the smell of meat, she immediately got up and went to grab the piece of meat to feast on, muttering in her mouth: "It's so delicious...I've never eaten such a delicious thing!"

"Today is really gratifying! Miss Shen, now you should know that if you don't have enough food and drink in the outside world, you won't be able to go very far." Bai Feng said, and then went out of the account to preach to Thorn : "Ah Jing, bake a little more, it looks like it's not enough for her teeth!"

"You guys, don't you ask me why I came with you?" Shen Qiongzhi asked.

Murong Yan immediately replied, "Brother Feng told me that you actually wanted to leave the Holy Land a long time ago, right?"

"Huh, that's right." Shen Qiongzhi smiled and said, "To be honest, I really envy you, but I still want to see you fulfill your promise and return to the Holy Land with my own eyes. This is my mission."

"What is there to be envious of... Every day, I eat and sleep in the open, and I don't want to finish my last meal, and I have to avoid the pursuit of the government and the government." Murong Yan watched Shen Qiongzhi eat the piece of meat, and felt happy from the bottom of her heart. Immediately went outside and took another piece to share with the other party: "From now on, I will call you Sister Qiongzhi, we will never break our promise."

"My lord saint!" Before Shen Qiongzhi finished speaking, Murong Yan smiled and said, "Oh, don't shout like that outside, are you afraid that the Taiping Taoist people don't know where I am? Sister Qiongzhi will call me Yan'er as usual, We are all companions, helping each other, why should we distinguish between superior and inferior?"

After eating barbecue and chatting for a long time, several people fell asleep one after another. In the morning of the next day, the difficult journey began again, and the new story was always just ahead.
