"How is it?"
Standing in the newly expanded Desert Cistanche cultivation base, Fang Qiu looked at the base, which was bigger than before. He turned his head to look at He Xue, who had been supervising the work.
"Well, it's almost done."
He Xue nodded with satisfaction and said, "Based on the annual output of Desert Cistanche per square meter, the output should be enough to supply all the domestic and foreign markets."
"In that case, there should be nothing for me to do next, right?"
Fang Qiu asked again.
"That's it."
He Xue clapped her hands and asked curiously, "Are you going to leave again?"
"The world is so big. I want to go out for a walk."
Fang Qiu took a deep breath.
"Abroad?"
He Xue was stunned.
"No."
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, "I'm going to go on a hiking trip in the desert."
"Oh?"
He Xue was shocked.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the desert was an extremely mysterious place. This kind of mysterious place was often accompanied by death.
She didn't know why Fang Qiu suddenly wanted to go on such a trip, but she could feel the hardship of this trip. Since Fang Qiu wanted to do it, it meant that he had made up his mind.
"What?"
After a moment of surprise, He Xue suddenly laughed and said, "Do you want to prove your courage, or do you want to go through some hardships?"
"Only by going through hardships can one become a superior person."
Fang Qiu responded indifferently.
"I can help you prepare a satellite phone and a satellite locator."
He Xue said.
"No need."
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, "All the experiences with a way out are just for fun."
"All right."
He Xue nodded knowingly and said, "Everything goes well."
That afternoon.
Fang Qiu left the cultivation base.
On foot.
In fact, the reason why Fang Qiu wanted to go on a ten-day hiking trip in the desert was to stabilize his realm.
He hadn't used this method for a long time.
Because it was a method that the old master told him a few years ago, before he broke through and became a guru.
This method was to not use any internal Qi and only rely on the physical body.
To constantly break through the limit.
This was a process of constantly tempering and stimulating internal Qi. The internal Qi was in the human body. Since it was in the body, it had a lot to do with the human body.
Of course, there were also special cultivation methods in Wulin to temper the physical body, but that kind of cultivation method did not have much effect on the stability of the realm.
Fang Qiu was also very clear.
The method that the old master had taught him was not really for him to train his body, but to use this ascetic method to forge him as a person.
From the spirit, from the body, from the endurance, from all aspects!
This was not just a simple trip, it was also a trial, a trial for oneself!
After getting the reply from the old master on the Wulin forum, Fang Qiu immediately thought of this method. But because there were too many things to do, he couldn't give up everything to practice.
Right now.
All the trifles were over.
He had exactly ten days before the appointed time with Lin Rusheng arrived.
Therefore, Fang Qiu decided to go there.
When he left the cultivation base, Fang Qiu carried a backpack alone!
One step at a time.
Under the scorching sun, he wore a cloak and dressed up like an ascetic monk as he stepped onto the road into the Desert of Death.
On the smooth road.
The sand was like fluttering catkins, disappearing under the gentle breeze. Like water ripples, it flew and fell on the road wave after wave.
This road led to the Desert of Death, a place that no one dared to venture deep into.
But even though there were many dangers.
Fang Qiu still saw all kinds of people preparing to cross the Desert of Death.
Of course.
Most of them were in groups.
Only Fang Qiu was alone, carrying a backpack.
No doubt.
In the eyes of these people, Fang Qiu became an alien, attracting almost everyone to cast a strange look at him.
As he walked, Fang Qiu saw a hotel in front of him.
"Boss, do you have water?"
Fang Qiu walked into the hotel.
"How many packs?"
A middle-aged man stood in front of the counter and asked.
"How many packs?"
Fang Qiu was stunned.
At this time.
The boss took out a long, flat, transparent bag from the counter. The bag was filled with purified water, and there was a straw attached to the corner of the bag.
"This is a water bag. People who enter the desert like to take this with them. There is enough water. Under normal circumstances, a bag of water can last a person for about three days. If you save a little, you can last five days. The most important thing is that this water is easy to carry. It can be put in the bag or in the clothes. When you drink water, you just need to move your mouth."
The boss said.
"I want a bag."
Fang Qiu nodded and bought a bag of water.
"Young man, don't you have a companion?"
The boss looked out of the door curiously.
"No, it's just me."
Fang Qiu said.
"You can't go alone."
The boss frowned and said, "This desert is very dangerous. If you go alone, I advise you not to go. It's easy to not come back."
"Thank you."
Fang Qiu nodded to thank him and took the water bag from the boss.
"Alas."
Seeing this, the boss shook his head and then took out a business card from the counter. He handed it to Fang Qiu and said, "Young man, this is my business card. There is my name and phone number on the card. If you have any problems in the desert, you can call me immediately. Maybe I can help."
"Okay, thank you."
Fang Qiu nodded to thank him again. After taking the boss's business card, he stretched out his palm and patted the boss's shoulder gently. A stream of internal Qi surged out and instantly helped the hotel boss get rid of the hidden disease.
"Hmm?"
The boss was stunned. He only felt a warm flow on his shoulders, which was very comfortable.
However.
The boss didn't think anything else and just thought it was an illusion.
And here.
After buying water and leaving the hotel, Fang Qiu went directly into the Desert of Death.
For a whole day.
Fang Qiu kept moving forward.
Just like this, step by step, he let the wind blow and the sun shine. He let his lips be dry and cracked. He also forced himself not to drink a mouthful of water.
Not only during the day.
Even at night, Fang Qiu didn't stop walking.
Just like this.
He kept walking until the next morning.
Over a sand dune, Fang Qiu continued to walk in the morning wind.
But at this time.
"Buzz …"
The roar of an engine came from afar.
He turned to look.
He saw.
Behind him was an off-road vehicle.
In the car, a man and a woman were sitting.
"Why is there a man in front?"
The woman pointed to Fang Qiu walking in front and asked in surprise.
"Damn it."
When the man saw Fang Qiu, he immediately exclaimed and then curled his lips and said, "Is this man a fool? This is the Desert of Death. It's dangerous to drive in. How dare he walk?"
"This man is too bold, isn't he?"
The woman echoed and kept her eyes on Fang Qiu. When the car was approaching Fang Qiu, the woman thought for a moment and said, "How about we give him a ride?"
"Forget it."
The man shook his head and said, "He should have heard the sound of the car. If he needs it, he will take the initiative to stop the car. If he doesn't need it, we don't need to interrupt him. After all, everyone has his own way, and we don't know who he is."
Sure enough.
When the car passed by Fang Qiu, Fang Qiu didn't stop it.
The car left very quickly.
Then.
Fang Qiu kept moving forward.
In the blink of an eye, it was the third day.
This time, Fang Qiu met a cyclist.
This cyclist was a young man wrapped up tightly. When he saw Fang Qiu, he was very surprised and curious. He immediately stopped the motorcycle, jumped off the car, and pushed the bike side by side with Fang Qiu.
"Friend, are you alone?"
The young man looked at Fang Qiu curiously and asked.
"Yes."
Fang Qiu nodded and smiled.
Although he was wearing a cloak, the other could also feel it.
"So awesome? You are alone and don't have a car? And you dare to enter the Desert of Death? "
The young man was surprised.
"Isn't this a trial?"
Fang Qiu replied with a smile and then asked, "Aren't you the same?"
"Yes."
The young man laughed and said, "Actually, I sneaked out."
"Ah?"
Fang Qiu was stunned.
"I'm about to graduate from college and I really want to ride a bike. I know my family won't agree with me, so I sneaked out without telling my family."
The young man said.
"It's too dangerous."
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, "You will make your family worried."
In Fang Qiu's view.
This young man was really too ignorant.
The two chatted as they walked. Fang Qiu didn't say any big ideas to the young man, just simple questions and answers. After chatting for a while, the young man got on the car and left.
Before leaving, he also wished Fang Qiu good luck.
Fang Qiu kept moving forward.
On the fifth day.
Because of the non-stop day and night, Fang Qiu felt that he had walked about two-thirds of the way. These days, he didn't rest for a second. From the body to the soul, to the endurance, to the spiritual force, he had been breaking through the limit.
Soon.
On the morning of the sixth day.
Just over a particularly high sand dune, Fang Qiu stopped when he felt the sand flow under his feet was abnormal.
"At this speed, there is quicksand below, right?"
Fang Qiu lowered his head and glanced down at the sand dune. To his surprise, he saw several familiar figures.
He saw.
Under this very high sand dune, there was indeed a river-like quicksand area. At this time, in the center of the quicksand area, there were two figures.
A man and a woman. They were the young couple who drove the off-road vehicle.
It seemed that.
The car should have sunk. The two were obviously standing on the roof of the car and the quicksand had buried up to their waist.
There was another figure at the edge of the quicksand area two meters away from the two.
It turned out to be the college student.
He saw.
His car was still parked on the sand dune not far away. It seemed that he obviously wanted to save the young couple, but he was swept in by the quicksand.
He glanced over.
In the quicksand, the three people were very miserable. It seemed that they had been tortured all the way and were obviously reaching their limit.
Especially the college student who rode alone.
He even wanted to save people in such a situation.
