After the volcanic eruption of the Xirong Mountains, there were only a handful of Tang Dynasty merchants who hid in that cellar, believing that they could escape the catastrophe.

After the eruption of that volcano, all the animals either fled or died, and that Tang Zhangwei sent many big wooden birds to fly in the sky.

When the volcanic eruption subsided, Tang Zhangwei and the others sent people back again, at this time, the Xirong City had been completely buried, and the volcanic ash had engulfed the Xirong City.

Tang Zhangwei saw the Xirong City destroyed by the volcano, and he ignored the smell of the volcanic ash, and he began to order his men to rebuild the Xirong City.

This Tang Zhangwei's subordinates, they have just finished rebuilding that Xirong City, and the Wading people have begun to attack the Xirong City of the Tang Dynasty again.

These Vardins are starting to have a certain advantage this time, because the Vardins and their people are using the weapons provided to them by the Sea Tribe.

That Tang Zhangwei's people were still very wary of the threat of that enemy, after all, when the Ice Wolf Cavalry of the Watting People and the Ice Bear Cavalry rushed over, that Tang Zhangwei was still very afraid.

After that Yan Ling Guifei led the soldiers of the two black slave regiments to rush over, the people of the Black Iron Continent besieged the cavalry of the Wattin people.

The people of the Black Iron Continent, they were busy attacking that ice wolf cavalry.

The nine major tribes of the Wading people, together they launched an attack on the Tang soldiers around that Xirong City.

The Beluga Whale Tribe, the Jellyfish Tribe, and the Killer Whale Tribe, each of them dispatched three thousand ice wolf cavalry.

The Sailfish Tribe, the Flying Fish Tribe, the Walrus Tribe, the Sea Lion Tribe, the Seal Tribe, they dispatched two thousand Ice Bear Cavalry.

Van Lant led the Megalodon tribe, and they wanted to take the city of Sijon in one fell swoop.

The ten tribes of the Merman Empire, the Coral Tribe, the Crab Tribe, the Jasper Tribe, and the Sea Serpent Tribe, each sent a thousand cavalry, and these people brought the best weapons craftsmen to help the Wading people attack that Xirong.

However, the scallop tribe, starfish tribe, sea urchin tribe, lobster tribe, and abalone tribe of the merman empire refused to send troops because they felt that the weapons manufacturing industry of the Tang Dynasty was also very advanced.

That pearl tribe was not only unwilling to fight with that Datang, but on the contrary, they also tried to do business with that Datang.

Because, these people know that the strength of that Datang is too strong, so they don't want to fight against that Datang.

Covering this desert with lightness, stretching out the big black and dark hand that seemed to grasp the whole world, in the palm of its hand, only the elven stars and the white and jade-like oblique moon in the sky could pass through the palm of the night god, and the silver light and color would swirl on the ground, and the cold night wind would gently float through the bleak and clear desert, and a big flag would be erected high in the air, making the wind blow.

"Vaddin tribe!" These three big black characters are clearly revealed on the big flag, which looks so majestic, and it looks so isolated in the moonlight. The pointed tabernacle was lined up in a row, and several men who were on the watch, with knives and jugs, roamed up and down the place, as if they were very afraid of the loneliness of the night, and there were voices coming out from time to time.

Suddenly, from the dark and faint night, there was a series of galloping hooves, which shattered the tranquility of the night, and the men who were on the night watchful at the same time looked at the fast riders who came, and touched the guys on their bodies. "Password!" "I'm the green-clothed messenger of the Desert Wyverns!" Bai Wushu jumped down lightly from his horse, glanced at those men and said:

"I want to see your leader, please hurry up and report it" "Friend! The man standing in front of him opened his mouth and said coldly: "You wait here, I'll go in and see if our leader is asleep?" ”

Bai Wuyi smiled faintly, looking at the back of the man, a cold snort erupted lightly in his nose, and a faint disdain appeared on his face, not long after the man left, he walked out side by side with Tang Zhangwei, who was full of gloom. "General-" Bai Wushu stepped forward and grabbed Tang Zhangwei's hand and said:

"There is news here, we lost the first pass, now it is up to you to be in charge, the desert is now three families standing on their feet, if you add one more Tang Zhaozong, hey! The benefits of the desert will be taken up by him alone."

Tang Zhangwei's brows were tightly locked, his depressed face looked very miserable, a cold light flashed in his eyes, a murderous aura suddenly poured out, his lips trembled, his fists were clenched tightly, and he punched heavily in the air. muttered, "Fuck, this kid really dares to come to this hellish place"

Bai Wushu said hehehe: "This surname Shi is really not simple, even our Hong Dangjia almost got him to lie down, if it weren't for the mercy of others, hehe, then there would be a look"

"What?" Tang Zhangwei was shocked in his heart and said, "Can't even Captain Hong?" ”

A trace of fear flashed across Bai Wudi's face, sighed, and said: "There is no need to mention this, our Hong Dangjia is really discouraged, he almost died before the two moves, and he was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood when he went back, now, hehe, I'm not afraid of your Tang Zhangwei jokes, we can be regarded as really planted this time, it doesn't matter if we tell you Tang Zhangwei to listen to it, if you let the people in the Ghost Palace know, it's strange if you don't laugh at his grandmother's big teeth."

Tang Zhangwei's heart sank, he sometimes wanted to kill Tang Zhaozong, but when he really got the news of Tang Zhaozong, there was a fear in his heart, his expression kept changing, and the hidden pain in his heart made him unable to muster up the courage again, he smiled coldly, and said, "Where is he now?" ”

Bai Wushu thought for a while and said, "His actions are already in the palm of our big hands, and now Tang Zhaozong may be spending the night in that black lake five miles away."

Tang Zhangwei said indifferently: "Heihu, he chose a good place" He waved lightly, and immediately a man led a big horse with a black body, Tang Zhangwei turned back to the man who was keeping vigil and said:

"I'll go out for a while, and when the leader and Deputy Leader Luo ask, they will say that I will go out to check the enemy's tracks, and I'll be back in a while."

He waved his whip lightly, and the sound of galloping hooves broke through the silence of the night in an instant, and disappeared from the night like a wisp of smoke.

There are only a few bare dead trees on the black lake, sparsely condensing on the banks of the lake, barely struggling in the cold wind, like a traveler who is not afraid of death, resisting the invasion of nature with great difficulty, and fighting hard.

The black sand and mud, the black swamp, without a trace of water, is better to say that it is a lake than a dry bottom, because there is not a drop of water in it, but a large sand pit that can shelter from the wind.

At the bottom of the Black Lake, a raging fire was lit at this time, and two lonely men sat beside the fire, looking at the sparse stars in the sky, and contemplating in the mystery of the night.

The thoughts of the two of them flow with the light of day, and the dreamy boat gently carries a wisp of remembrance of the two of them to the distance—a distant fairyland, where there is no all the troubles and worries, and all the blood, only the warm fragrance of flowers, and the touching love, and the shadow of fantasy carries the two away from reality.

"Gotta got" The sound of hooves that resounded through the world shattered the thinking of the two like a drum, Tang Zhaozong raised his head in surprise, only to see the black-clothed knight galloping straight here under the moonlight, and the flying shadow gradually approached.

"It's him—" Catherine said slowly, "Tang Zhangwei—"

The two sharp blade-like gazes swept over coldly, flowed over Tang Zhaozong's face, and slowly fell on Catherine's face, Tang Zhangwei's heart trembled violently, and an unbearable pain appeared on his face.

He said hoarsely: "Hello-" Tang Zhaozong said excitedly: "It's okay for you, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

When he stood face to face with this young man who had become hated because of love, an indescribable pain rose from the bottom of his heart, and he sighed secretly. Road:

"Catherine-" Tang Zhangwei looked very excited, his pale lips trembled slightly, and he mustered all his courage to recall these two words, the words dragged on for a long time, and he secretly looked at Catherine with a flustered gaze, and said softly: "Do you remember me, a wanderer in the lost desert?" ”

Catherine's eyes flashed with tears, and she sighed softly: "As long as you no longer have hatred, no one will forget the friendship between us!" ”

She didn't know how to explain to this young man, she could only say these words without words, and in an instant, in her mind filled with a lot of confusion, the scene of studying art in Moses Lake in the past appeared, and Tang Zhangwei's infatuation really moved her!

Tang Zhangwei was stunned for a moment, and said bitterly: "Is it just a little friendship?" Catherine said secretly: "My feelings are all gone, except for the love of the same family, I can't think of anything better for you, mountain guest, you will understand me"

"No!" Tang Zhangwei yelled: "You are my wife, Catherine, no one can deny that thing!" ”

He seemed to be crazy at this time, staring at Tang Zhaozong viciously, a fire surged in that cold gaze, pointed at Shi Di, and said, "You! Tang Zhaozong was stunned and said, "Brother Tang, calm down."

Tang Zhangwei lost his mind at this time, and he wanted to kill this great rival with a sword, he laughed desolately, took five steps forward in a row, and said, "I want to kill you."

Tang Zhaozong's heart trembled, knowing the painful state of mind of a man with fragile feelings, the sadness that ordinary people can understand, he didn't want to touch the sad history between Tang Zhangwei and himself, and said calmly: "Brother Tang, you calm down, tonight is a night of reunion, your matter is in peaceful progress, I believe it can be solved satisfactorily!" ”

Tang Zhaozong shook his head and said secretly: "Brother Tang, everyone has hardships, there are many things that you can't understand all, like me and Catherine, the understanding between us is relatively deep Tang Zhangwei stretched out his hand and pulled out his long sword, and said: "Of course, your reasons are very sufficient, Tang Zhaozong, you better do it, this is the fairest choice, whoever is the final winner will get Catherine, what do you think?" ”

"I'm willing to quit" Tang Zhaozong said bitterly: "Brother Tang, Catherine is your wife, you lead her away, please believe me, the friendship between us is the purest, and your wife is also very sacred."

Tang Zhangwei seemed to be stunned, he didn't expect Tang Zhaozong to retreat halfway, he was suspicious at this time, almost doubting his ears, and asked: "You have to give up the opportunity to fight for Catherine."

Tang Zhaozong said desolately: "This opportunity is originally yours, how can I be qualified to fight for it."

"Hey, hey!" Tang Zhangwei said in a low voice: "Nonsense, Tang Zhaozong, you simply see me as a child, give me a few pieces of candy and slap me in the face, hey!" Tang Zhaozong, you can only deceive children, and it is useless in front of me Tang Zhangwei, unless you are a ghost, you will believe that you will easily let go of Catherine, whom you have loved all your life. ”

Tears welled up in Pingfangping's eyes at this time, a few pearl-like tears rolled on her cheeks, she gently lifted her sleeves to wipe away the falling tears, and said:

"Tang Zhangwei, what he said is true, I am your wife, he has no right to want me, now that I am your person, you can lead me away!"

Tang Zhangwei really couldn't believe his ears at this time, he always thought that Catherine didn't love him before, and it was completely Tang Zhaozong who was in the middle, but now the facts have denied his misunderstanding, and even Catherine has confirmed it.

But Tang Zhangwei still thought that he was in a dream, stood dumbfounded for a while, and asked loudly: "Catherine, you say it again"

Catherine saw Tang Zhangwei's infatuated appearance, her heart was really sour, and a ray of pity suddenly rose in her heart, and she couldn't help but wonder:

"If I go and have mercy on men, who will have mercy on me? Everyone knows that my decision this time is the happiness of my life, although Tang Zhangwei loves me, but it is just a blind love, after the tempering of time, that kind of love will disappear, I go, what should I do? ”

A painful look appeared on her face, and she trembled: "I'm your person, you can rest assured!" ”

Tang Zhangwei wept and trembled, his face showed excitement and joy, he seemed to be in a dream, looking at the vast night sky, and muttered: "This is true, this is true."

After the excitement, there was a wave of confusion and emptiness, and even he could not understand whether it was joy or sadness, although he already had Catherine, what could he do? He just got a body, a woman who didn't really belong to him, she had the shadow of Tang Zhaozong in her heart, and Tang Zhaozong would not easily erase the traces of Catherine, could this be regarded as getting her? Tang Zhangwei was really painful, because not getting Catherine's grief was an indescribable sadness.

Tang Zhangwei took a long breath and said, "Catherine, I haven't really gotten you yet!" ”

Catherine said in a trembling voice, "What do you mean by that?" Tang Shanrong was stunned for a moment, and said: "I don't allow anyone to have a crush on you, and I don't allow anyone to leave traces in your heart, you know, Tang Zhaozong won't forget it like this, and you won't forget Tang Zhaozong, this kind of love is only superficial."
