As the wind grew weaker, the setting sun finally appeared in the sky. The clouds were all gone! The clear blue sky!
Usually, at this time, Lou Xiaoyi would sit down and begin his cultivation. But now, he was no longer satisfied with the feeling of sitting still. Since it was all about cultivating by eating Qi, why couldn't there be someone who could run?
He had never considered this problem before. He had always arranged his cultivation in an orderly manner. First, he would absorb the Qi of Heaven and Earth. Then, he would use the Raging Bull Body to exhaust the absorbed Spiritual Power. Finally, he would use the White Sand Worms to replenish himself with Spiritual Power!
But this time, the sandstorm made him realize that he could combine these three aspects. No, he could also add one more, the Tornado Escape Armor!
Absorbing the Qi of Heaven and Earth and the White Sand Worms at the same time, using the Raging Bull Body and the Tornado Escape Armor at the same time, two techniques to absorb, and two techniques to release … The result was that he had transformed into a tireless desert wolf running in the Gobi!
This was a joy that came from the whole body! It was the trembling of the soul!
What was nature? Follow the heart and let nature take its course!
Feeling that the Spiritual Power absorption could not keep up with the consumption, Lou Xiaoyi did not think too much about it. He reached into the bottle on his back and two more stabs of pain came. These Red String White Sand Worms had really fast reactions!
Laughing, Lou Xiaoyi increased his speed again, leaving a long trail of dust behind him!
A motorcyclist in a desert race? He seemed to have an impression of this?
For three days, Lou Xiaoyi did not sleep or rest. He maintained this state. To him, this was the most suitable cultivation state. It was not purely to live for a hundred more years, but to completely immerse himself in the joy of cultivation.
If you did not like a profession from the bottom of your heart, your achievements would be limited. Now, he realized that he really liked cultivation and did not treat it as just a mission.
On the Gobi, there were more and more rocks, and the quicksand was relatively less. When the cave where two of his friends had died appeared in front of him, his legs suddenly felt like they were about to explode. Looking down, he saw that two jade pieces with the Wind Wing Array could not withstand the continuous high-intensity operation and had shattered into powder!
His speed suddenly dropped, announcing the end of his wild run in the Gobi Desert, which he didn't know whether he was cultivating or running for his life!
Next to the earthen wall carvings, there was a tall wooden sign. The bottom of the sign was nailed deep into the sand and stone.
"The cave has been carved for a long time. We must be on guard against cave-ins. There have already been a few wanderers who have lost their lives inside. Don't say that you didn't warn us!"
The Young Wanderers referred to this group of friends, but they didn't expect to be left in history in this way. They only had themselves to blame.
However, Lou Xiaoyi did not care about this. The danger here could no longer harm a cultivator like him. He sat cross-legged at the top of the cave, surrounded by yellow sand and the Gobi Desert. It was empty and quiet.
When he focused his mind on his Dantian, the exuberant spiritual vigor was completely different from before he entered the Gobi Desert. According to his estimation, in just over a month's journey in the Gobi Desert, the spiritual power reserve in his Dantian, which was the cultivation in the traditional sense, had increased by more than two times!
Such a terrifying speed might have been based on the fact that his original cultivation was too weak. It also made him afraid. How could a weak ant like him dare to break into the core forbidden area of the Gobi Desert alone?
It seemed that he had to change his way of cultivation in the future. The speed of cultivation sitting in the study of the mansion could no longer satisfy his ambition.
After eating the fairy fruit, who cared about rotten peaches? After experiencing the flying car, who would ride an ox cart?
Lou Xiaoyi was in a good mood. The red thread worm in the bottle on his back was his biggest gain. Although he lost two dessert camels and some materials, it was completely worth it. However, he had to clean up his appearance. Otherwise, no one would recognize him even if he didn't put on makeup.
He didn't have any silver on him. In order to lighten his load, he put it all in the bundle on the dessert camels. This made him think hard.
As he walked back, the passersby kept a respectful distance from this bearded man who was covered in dust from head to toe. Judging from his appearance, he didn't look like a young man. He looked like a middle-aged man who had experienced the vicissitudes of life.
Turning onto the main road toward Pu City, Lou Xiaoyi still hadn't figured out how to solve the problem of his image. He could have gone to the Sand Nation gathering place, but he lost two dessert camels. This made him feel ashamed to face these simple Sand Nation people. To these Sand Nation people, dessert camels were to them like warhorses were to knights.
If it weren't for the fact that they had spent some time together and that the Sand Nation people trusted his identity as the young master of Lou Province, they wouldn't have let him exchange two fine horses for two dessert camels. This had nothing to do with the value.
As soon as he turned onto the main road, he saw a lot of people. However, a middle-aged man stood on a mound of dirt by the side of the road, anxiously looking at him. Lou Xiaoyi couldn't help but laugh when he saw him.
If it wasn't his loyal servant Ping An, who else could it be?
The young master of Lou Province had returned home!
Traveling outside for more than a month wasn't a short time, but in Aunt Cai Huan's eyes, it wasn't long enough.
There was no welcoming ceremony. Lou Xiaoyi immediately went to the backyard to greet the two madams. He also brought along the big and small gifts he brought back from Zhou County. Of course, he didn't buy them. Ping An bought them on his behalf, as well as the gifts from the Li family to the two madams.
This was why he had to let Ping An follow him to Zhou County.
"He's tanned and slimmed down, but he's also more energetic!" Lou Yaoshi looked at her son with satisfaction. She thought to herself, 'It seems that I can't keep this child in the residence in the future. It's easy to spoil him.'
Aunt Cai Huan also smiled and said, "Our Xiao Yi is dressed up now. Who in Pu City can compare to him? I'm not afraid of being tanned, as long as he's healthy! "
Lou Yaoshi beamed with joy. "Xiao Yi, ten days after you left, the academy released the rankings. Our Xiao Yi graduated in thirteenth place. Your Aunt Cai and I can finally let go of our worries …
When you're free tomorrow, prepare four different gifts. You have to go to the Advisor's office more often. Your status is different from normal scholars, so not only Lord Hu's, but also Lord Qin's. You have to go and take a look. Don't let people say that our Lou Province doesn't know etiquette.
It's a pity that Advisor Zhao left early and returned to Zhou County. Otherwise, the person you should be thanking the most would be him. I heard that Advisor Zhao was full of praise for your policy! "
Lou Xiaoyi smiled. "You really got it? I thought there would be some twists and turns! "
Aunt Cai Huan winked at him. "What twists and turns could there be? Xiao Yi has been studying for many years. Don't talk about literature, he's even won literary classics! "
After eating at his mother's place, Lou Xiaoyi suggested, "Mother, Ping An has been with me for many years. Although he's very useful, he's not young anymore. It's a bit hard for him to follow me around. I think the outer courtyard just happens to be lacking a chief steward. Why don't we let him go?"
This was the first time Lou Xiaoyi, the little master of Lou Province, had spoken about the affairs of the residence. Lou Yaoshi naturally wouldn't refuse his suggestion. Moreover, this suggestion was very pertinent and suited her intentions.
"Then, Xiao Yi, who do you want to be your chief steward?"
Lou Xiaoyi smiled. "Actually, there's no need. If I go out, I can just casually find someone from the servants. Why go through so much trouble?"
Lou Yaoshi and Aunt Cai Huan said in unison, "No, without someone mature, how can we be at ease? Won't we just let you do whatever you want? "
