"Is this the place?" Qiu Yan suppressed her excitement, listening to the foreign monk seriously reversing subject, verb, and object, and couldn't help but chuckle.
It seems they were on the right track in the desert.
The foreign monk spoke with a strong foreign accent, which made Qin Susu laugh out loud once again.
"Strange monk, are you saying this is the Kingdom of Lu Shi?" Strange, how did Xiao Yan understand that?
The foreign monk nodded.
“Struggle to make.”
"That's great!" Qin Susu understood those two words.
She felt relieved, thinking, "I wonder where Ling Qi and Ling Ba are."
"Your life is purple, isn't it?" the foreign monk asked the two.
It took Qiu Yan a moment to realize that the foreign monk wanted to ask them their names.
"My name is Qiu Yan." Then, pointing to Qin Susu, she continued her introduction:
“My companion is Qin Susu.”
"###……." The foreign monk uttered a long string of names.
Qiu Yan... couldn't understand, and Qin Susu looked at the foreign monk with even more bewilderment.
She had lived for over a decade, and this was the first time she had ever been to such a strange place and heard such strange words.
Seeing that Qiu Yan and the other girl had stiff expressions, the foreign monk was very understanding and repeated his name three times in a row.
Qin Susu struggled to understand. "I still don't understand. Strange monk, don't you have any other names? It's so long, who can remember it?"
The foreign monk, growing impatient, repeated his name earnestly once more.
This time, he spoke extremely slowly.
Qiu Yan pronounced it as "A...la...xiu...luo...wei...la".
The foreign monk's lips curled up again and again, and he laughed out loud.
He finally understood why Qin Susu always laughed at him.
His laughter was hearty, clear and melodious like a mountain spring.
But Qin Susu still looked completely bewildered.
"Girls, what's up here?" the foreign monk asked.
"We've come to find our other companions. Master Vera, I'd like to inquire whether any people from the Central Plains have passed through this area recently?" Qiu Yan was eager to know where Ling Qi and Ling Ba were.
Along the way, they kept an eye out for traces of Ling Qi and Ling Ba, but found nothing.
The sandstorms here are so strong that even footprints are swallowed up by the rolling sand.
“Zhongyuan…”
Vera shook her head. "Mei You...women...Shi Cong, Nei Bian Lai De."
As he spoke, he pointed to the south side.
"South?" Qiu Yan's voice changed upon hearing it. Could it be...?
"Are you from India?"
Vera shook her head again, clearly not understanding what Qiu Yan meant.
no?
"India? You're from India, right?" Qiu Yan guessed that Vera must have come to the Central Plains to promote Buddhism.
That should be it.
Vera's eyes widened in disbelief upon hearing this.
"You know?"
Qiu Yan: "This... there are records about India in the books, I guessed." These people really were Indians.
Qin Susu was surprised, the expression on her face...
Just two words: I admire you!
"You could have guessed that?"
She was completely awestruck!
Anyway, she knew nothing about this strange monk.
“We’re inside, scoop it up.” Vera pointed to the north.
Where are you?
"Us?" Qiu Yan didn't know which direction she was going.
Vera noticed Qiu Yan's hesitation.
"How about we get up? Let's go all day long and get together... for one night?"
Want to sleep together for one night?
If Qiu Yan hadn't known that this foreign monk was a Buddhist nun, she might have misunderstood his meaning.
As darkness fell and a desert stretched out before them, Qiu Yan and her companions were out of food and water. If they didn't ask these people for help, what other options did they have?
She nodded.
"Thank you, Master."
