    The land is filled with yellow sand. In this vast land, there is an endless desert. The golden sand forms dunes one after another, reflecting the blue sky.  On this desert, a small camel caravan was marching, and the sound of camel bells spread far and wide in the endless wind and sand.  In the vast desert, only these desert boats can cross slowly. No matter whether it is a peerless horse that can travel thousands of miles a day or a bullock that can be said to be eight hundred miles, they can't conquer this harshest environment in nature.  "The sky is so blue, without a trace of cloud. Such a blue sky is so beautiful! Sister Hongxiu, why do you think the sky is blue today?" Tianxiang sat on the back of a camel, wearing a lake-green dress, deceiving the yellow sand everywhere.  It looks more lively and lively against the background, as if she is a pretty maid stepping out of a timeless painting of a lady.  But at this moment, she raised her head and asked about the red sleeve of the red dress, which was as bright as a ball of flame.  "I really don't know about this. Why don't you ask the master? He will definitely know!" Hongxiu was stumped by this question. Why is the sky blue today? How could she know? There are no clouds blocking it.  Isn't it just blue?  "Master!" The little girl turned her head and looked at Li Kuan.  A pair of big eyes full of hope. She really wanted to know why the sky was blue. Could it be that there was a blue wall on the sky.  "Tianxiang, do you know what the biggest thing on the earth is?" Li Kuan asked with a smile. He was very relaxed along the way. He didn't have much to worry about in Chang'an. He walked very freely, taking three women with him.  All the way to the west, we walked into this large desert, which was a dead end for others. Li Kuan broke in with a small camel caravan without even thinking, because in the desert  The biggest threat is the lack of water. However, although Li Kuan's energy consumption is almost at the bottom, the cheapest fresh water is still available, and under this desert, there are endless oil reserves. These places are now  Still deserted.  It can be said that it is a land without one, and since he is here, he accepts it.  So along the way, the others were carrying fresh water in large and small bags, but it was still a narrow escape in the desert.  Li Kuan and the others walked as if they were traveling. They climbed onto the sand dunes to watch the sunset over the long river. They lay on the sand at night and looked at the stars in the sky until they felt chilled by the cold.  They just got into the tent, and this tent was just a prop to hide from others. After putting it up every day, there was a whole other world inside. There were thick sleeping bags and even small beds. On such days, they were exploring the desert scenery.  slipped away.  During this period, Cui Yufei followed Li Kuan all the way and saw the magic of Li Kuan. Every time she looked at him, she had a different kind of resentment in her eyes: This guy has such magical abilities, but he doesn't dominate.  Don't fight for the throne.  It is really a waste of natural resources. With such ability, whether it is leading the army to fight or providing relief for famines, he can definitely gather the hearts of the people and even directly win the love of the people of the Tang Dynasty more than Li Er who is currently on the throne.  In this way, he will definitely become the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty.  But she didn't know why this guy was so repulsive to being an emperor. Could it be that the supreme throne was a big disaster in his eyes?  He was absolutely unmoved?  "Li Kuan, your skills are amazing in the past! Since you have such good conditions, no matter what you do, you are better than now, why are you so unmotivated?" Cui Yufei still asked the question in her heart.  "What? Do you think you can achieve unprecedented success just by relying on this? Then I can only say that you are too naive. No one is a fool. Do you think I can conquer a huge country by leading an army on such a rampage?  Do you know that people will die in war? Even if you don¡¯t have to worry about food, clothing, and weapons and armor, where will the people come from? I have been on the battlefield several times in the past few years, but never with swords and guns.  The enemy was defeated with one blow and one shot? First of all, the maximum number of soldiers I can bring is no more than 10,000. With such a numerical limit, where do you think we can go? Secondly, no matter which time it is an away battle.  The battle is on the enemy's land. The enemy has the right location and people, but what do we have? We only have better weapons than others, but this cannot determine the outcome of the war, because there is no one and we are being chased every time.  Kill, because we can't afford it!" Li Kuan shook his head. He knew that he could indeed lead a group of soldiers without fear of running out of supplies, but the most important source of soldiers was the biggest problem. No matter how much food he had, no matter how many soldiers he had,  Blade armor is useless without anyone.  "What about internal affairs? You don't need human lives to fill them. You are the strongest means of disaster relief and helping the people, and you are the best at winning people's hearts! As long as you show yourself in front of the displaced victims, there will definitely be countless people  I treat you like a god!" Cui Yufei continued the question.  "Haha How naive! Do you really think those civil and military officials are vegetarians? They can win over people's hearts.His eyes are the best attack pigtails. Today, my father is still in his prime. If he does this, he feels that he died not early enough!  "Li Kuan smiled mockingly. It's not like he never thought about taking charge of the Tang Dynasty, but he gave up in the end because of Li Er and because he didn't want to be bound. Of course, the most important thing was when he led his own troops to fight. But  He only had jurisdiction over a few thousand people, but as a result, he was extremely busy with daily affairs, which made him realize that he was not a leader. It was scary to think about countless memorials every day, and he also had to make judgments.  A single mistake in the instructions could affect the fate of millions of people. He could not bear such a heavy burden. If he made a mistake, he would never be able to forgive himself. ¡°Master!  I thoughtthe biggest thing in the world is the mountain!  Look, that mountain is so big" The heavy topic was interrupted by Xiao Tianxiang's words. She pointed to a huge sand dune in the distance, and then said loudly. "Haha that's  Mountain?  The mountain is the biggest!  "Li Kuan and Cui Yufei both looked at each other and smiled. This girl is really innocent and cute, but her vision is only so small. How can she be as broad as the two of them. "Tianxiang, you are wrong. Think about it, you have already seen it.  The biggest thing ever!  Think again!  Li Kuan reminded. "Really?"  But Tianxiang really couldn't remember that no matter where she was, there were mountains!  So tall, so big, bigger than any big trees or animals!  And these mountains are not the biggest, Yushan, there are also those high mountains in the Bashu land that Master and we have seen together before!  "The little girl counted on her fingers, as if she had seen too many mountains, and she didn't know which one was the biggest. "What a stupid girl, the mountain is not the biggest, the biggest is the sea!  "Li Kuan gave the answer directly. "It's true the sea is the biggest, no wonder it's called the sea!  "Tianxiang thought for a while, and it seemed that the sea was really bigger than the mountains. She had seen the sea, and it was endless as far as the eye could see. It seemed like there was sea water all the way to the other end of the sky. "But what does the biggest sea have to do with the blue sky?  "The little girl still doesn't understand. "What color is the sea?  " Li Kuan reminded, although this girl is also a smart little girl, she just doesn't like to use her brain, and she even appears to be extremely naive many times. "The sea is blue!  But the sky is also blue, just not as blue as the sea!  Does it matter?  The sea is on the ground and the sky is above our heads, but they are different!  Tianxiang still didn't understand: "Master, just say it straight, this is too difficult!"  " "What do you see when you stand on the beach?  " Li Kuan asked. "It's the beach!  "Xiao Tianxiang replied. "I've convinced you!  "Li Kuan couldn't help but have a headache. Sometimes this girl is smart, but sometimes she just can't turn around: "What about the beach?  " "Shells and waves!  The answer made Li Kuan almost fall off the camel's back: "Look further!"  Look to the farthest place!  " "There is nothing there!  There is only one line!  "Tianxiang thought about it, and then said. "That's right!  There is the horizon. Now think about what is on both sides of that line?  "Li Kuan then asked. "On one side is the sea and on the other side is the sky!  Tianxiang seemed to have thought of the answer: "That's it, the sea and the sky converge on that line, and then the sea dyes the sky blue!"  "Tianxiang shouted. "Okay, it's good to know, what are you calling for?  "Li Kuan gave the little girl a bang. "She will become stupid!  Bad master!  "The little girl pouted and made a face at Li Kuan. "What is that?  "At this moment, Hong Xiu suddenly cried out, and she was seen pointing in the distance with her hand, a look of horror on her face. "Wow!  What is that, a black pillar!  "Tianxiang took one look and shouted loudly. "Girl, what's your name?"  That's a tornado!  It's dark and full of sand. If you get caught in it, your life will be lost!  "Li Kuan also had a solemn expression. He had never faced such an unparalleled force of nature. She was lucky. She had run on the sea so many times and never encountered a storm. Now she faced this for the first time.  The power of heaven and earth ¡°What should we do?  "Cui Yufei was also a little panicked. "That's not sand, that's oil!  "I wipe it," Li Kuan shouted in his heart. Unexpectedly, this tornado blew out a hidden oil field. Oil is flying all over the sky. If you light a fire now, you can watch the most magical fire tornado right away. "Absorb energy!"  "Li Kuan responded to the system's inquiry, and then he saw endless amounts of oil quietly dissipating in the tornado, as if being blown up by the strong wind and flying into the air. But Li Kuan knew that all the oil had turned intoAll the energy was absorbed by him, and only a few remains were left, blown away by the strong wind.  "Exchange for fresh water!" Li Kuan immediately began to exchange for fresh water because he had to fight against the tornado that was heading towards them.  Suddenly, in the desert, a thick water column spurted out from the sand dunes where Li Kuan and the others lived, like a dragon coming out of water, straight towards the raging tornado.  (To be continued.)
