"In one day, we can probably return to Hutou City."
Xue San said while handing the water bag to Zheng Fan.
“I don’t know if everything is okay in the inn.”
Zheng Fan was a little worried. No matter it was a person or a dog, what he cared about most was his own nest, especially when you When you come to a completely unfamiliar environment, this feeling of caring will be even stronger.
"My lord, they don't have to worry. The inn is probably fine now." Xue San laughed "hehe".
He and Liang Cheng had a great time following their master outside to kill the barbarians this time, but the blind man at home was probably not idle either.
During this period of time, everyone should be able to express the feelings that have been suppressed in their hearts for the past six months.
"My Lord, the wind is getting stronger and stronger. Find a place to take shelter. There may be a sandstorm." Liang Cheng has been paying attention to the weather.
Those who have not lived in a desert environment for a long time do not know how terrible sandstorms are. If you are not careful, you may lose your way in the sandstorm, or even worse, you may be swallowed directly by the sandstorm. It's not impossible.
"Well, let's find a place to take shelter."
Zheng Fan had gone to learn horse riding with A Qiu and Liang Cheng before, but he was only able to ride. The two men around him did not rush him. The two days of traveling gave him enough time to adapt. Now, he is able to ride a horse with ease.
The three of them found a half-slope. It was just far away and they couldn’t see clearly. When they got closer, they found that it should be an abandoned building. It should have been abandoned for some years, and there were still some buildings here. There are traces of people staying here, which should be the temporary foothold of some caravans.
Liang Cheng went to tie everyone's horses inside, while Xue San began to clean up the floor.
After a busy period of work, the three of them sat down and began to share the dry food.
Within just two bites, a sandstorm started, the sky darkened instantly, the wind howled, and the dense sand was as pervasive as rain.
Fortunately, the location where the three of them are now can block the wind and sand, and it can be regarded as a rare quiet place under this "howling".
"Hey, I don't know if Ali is full now. Ali has a big appetite. He probably works as a helper outside, so it's hard to eat well." Xue San suddenly felt melancholy. road.
Liang Cheng seemed to wait for a moment, then nodded slightly and said:
"Yes."
Zheng Fan's ears were almost calloused, and he never left Until now in Hu Toucheng, every day, morning, noon and night, as long as the opportunity allows, Xue San and Liang Cheng will tell themselves how Fan Li is doing now.
Have Fan Li had enough to eat today?
Has Fan Li taken a shower today?
Did Fan Li sleep well today?
For those who didn’t know, they thought they were very affectionate brothers.
In the beginning, Zheng Fan also followedNod,
Yes, Fan Li is not easy;
Yes, Fan Li is difficult;
Yes, Fan Li has paid too much for us .
But slowly, Zheng Fan became numb.
At this moment, they were eating dry food and actually started again.
Actually, Xue San and Liang Cheng don’t want to mention this every day, but the blind man specifically explained before departure that everyone has already licked and recovered a little, but Fan Li is not here now, so they can only rely on you and When the master is outside, give Fan Li a lick from the air.
The most terrible thing is that because Fan Li doesn’t know where he is following the caravan, neither Xue San nor Liang Cheng can confirm whether Fan Li’s licking has had any effect or whether his strength has recovered to some extent. .
To be on the safe side,
I can only repeat the rhythm every day.
They are also very difficult...
" After we finish eating, let's take a rest," Zheng Fan suggested.
It's getting late now, and no one knows when the sandstorm will blow. It's better to rest here and set off early tomorrow to return.
"Okay, Lord, I will listen to you, I..."
Xue San's eyes suddenly condensed, he bit his lips, turned his hands and wrists, and made two The dagger had already fallen into the palm of his hand, and his ears were trembling.
Liang Cheng stood up silently and looked towards the entrance. The nails on his hands began to grow slowly.
Zheng Fan immediately untied the knife wrapped in coarse cloth and held the handle of the knife with both hands.
Outside, the sound of horses was heard. It should be that a group of people was coming, but as they gradually approached, the sound suddenly disappeared.
Xue San stuck out his tongue, licked the back of his dagger, and lowered his voice and said:
"Those people discovered that we are here."
When Zheng Fan heard this, he began to think about it. He thought that another group of people should have chosen to come here to take shelter after encountering a sandstorm. As a result, as soon as they got close to here, they found someone inside.
Here, it is not in Hutou City, but in the desert. There are no cameras, no surveillance, and no police uncle standing in the guard box not far away.
It can be said that the desert is a lawless place, especially in this kind of weather. No matter what happens, the sand and dust will help cover up all traces.
At the entrance, a figure walked in. This was a woman, wearing a white robe.
This robe is very similar to the sweatshirt Zheng Fan is wearing.
When the woman came in, Xue San's eyes narrowed, but the woman only stopped halfway. Half of her face was hidden under a gauze, only revealing A pair of deep eyes.
The woman began to look at Zheng Fan and the others, and then she said:
"The wind is blowing, we need to take shelter and find a place to borrow a place."
Speaking, outsideThere was a series of footsteps.
The first ones who ran in were two children of four or five years old, one boy and one girl, wearing clothes made of fur, followed closely by two big barbarian men wearing black cloaks.
There are many desert barbarian tribes scattered throughout the desert;
A hundred years ago, they had a royal court that could organize them. At that time, the desert barbarians The tribes posed a great threat to the Yan State. The monarch of the Yan State even had to go on several personal expeditions and mobilize the power of the entire Yan State to successfully resist the barbarian invasion.
However, with the decline of the Barbarian Royal Court, it no longer has appeal, and the Barbarian tribe has completely turned into a piece of scattered sand.
If this were not the case, there would not be any behavior of cutting down vassal vassalage by contemporary Yan kings.
However, Zheng Fan and the other three had fought with the barbarians a few days ago, and even took the heads of the barbarians to ask for rewards. Now that they saw the barbarians again, the instinct to be on guard was unavoidable. .
In fact, after seeing the two children and the two barbarian men appearing, Zheng Fan had been waiting for Liang Cheng and Xue San's movements. Once they started, he would immediately rush forward with his sword raised. Although I don't think I'm of much use, but... at least I can give my own side another target to share some firepower.
However, neither Liang Cheng nor Xue San made a violent move. In the end, Liang Cheng even nodded to the white-robed woman and said:
"Come in. ”
In this way, two groups of people settled in the small space.
Zheng Fan and the other three are at the north corner, while the woman in white robe is at the south corner.
After they came in, they also started eating and drinking, but the two barbarian men sat on the outermost edge, glancing towards Zheng Fan and the others from time to time, with a clear sense of caution.
However, the two sides were wary of each other and did not let the two children calm down.
The nature of children made them quickly start chasing each other and playing with each other after eating and drinking. They even ran to Zheng Fan and the others several times.
Zheng Fan could clearly feel that every time the two dolls chased him, the bodies of the two barbarian men would stiffen slightly, obviously preparing for a sudden attack on his side. Riot seized the two dolls as hostages.
However, this did not happen.
The sandstorm is not over yet, and we don’t know how long it will last, but it is really getting late.
The two children couldn't hold on anymore and were tired from playing, so they lay down next to the woman in white robe and fell asleep.
At this time, the woman in white robe stood up, holding a wine bottle in her hand, and took the initiative to walk towards Zheng Fan.
She handed the wine bottle over to Zheng Fan, who was obviously in charge.
Zheng Fan shook his head, pointed at his throat, and said:
"I've caught a bit of cold, my throat hurts, and I can't drink."
I'm scared, no. It's embarrassing, there's no need to show off., let yourself take risks.
Throughout the ages, the words of many heroes before their death are: Damn, this wine is poisonous!
Although Zheng Fan felt that this woman would most likely take a sip by herself after she refused to drink, to show her magnanimity and invisible contempt for herself.
Routines are like this.
The woman in white robe didn't take it seriously. She pulled out the stopper, took off her veil, took two sips of the wine inside and wiped her mouth with her sleeves.
Bah,
Routine!
Zheng Fan thought with disdain.
At the same time, he also sighed silently:
Tsk, tsk, the killer from the back.
Without taking off the veil, it is difficult to tell one’s age. Once the veil is taken off, one can tell that one is older. He must be forty, right?
Although she does look pretty, she is really inferior to Si Niang.
Actually, Zheng Fan also knew that according to the nature of his two subordinates, if the opposite party was a Yan caravan, there would be something to be said for it. However, since the opposite party has already stated that they are barbarians, if conditions permit, They will definitely kill each other directly to eliminate all unstable factors.
But since Liang Cheng and Xue San didn't take action, it means that this woman is very dangerous, and they are not absolutely sure to kill her.
At the same time, it is obvious that this woman is also very afraid of this place.
The woman threw the wine bottle in her hand to the two barbarian men behind her. The two barbarian men thanked her very gratefully, and immediately picked up the wine bottle and drank separately.
"Do you know who these two babies are?" The woman suddenly pointed at the two sleeping babies over there and asked.
Liang Cheng and Xue San did not speak. At this time, it should be the time for the bosses of both parties to communicate.
But Zheng Fan didn't say anything, as if he didn't hear him. He just didn't want to give you a chance to embarrass you.
The woman pursed her lips, with a smile on her lips, and then continued:
"They are the grandson and granddaughter of the Shatuo leader."
Liang Cheng's eyes narrowed, Xue San stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, while Zheng Fan stopped covering up and put his hand on the handle of the knife under the bunk.
The Shatuo tribe was the chicken picked by the Zhenbei Army this time. In the fishing trip a few days ago, the elites of their tribe were caught. In that battle, the Zhenbei Army general Shatuo tribe The elite were wiped out, and the next day another cavalry was sent to wipe out the tribe. At the same time, it was also to gain some war benefits from this war.
It's true... enemies have met.
"I saw your horse. It has the imprint of the Zhenbei Hou Li family on it. You are the servants of the Li family.
The family tradition of the Zhenbei Hou family is still the same. You deserve your reputation. You must do everything with perfection. I started from the royal court and ran all the way to rescue these two dolls. I didn’t expect that they could still encounter each other on the road.Arrive at Zhenbei to intercept and kill.
Didn’t you say that your Marquis is in a very bad situation now? "
"I think there seems to be some misunderstanding between us..." Zheng Fan opened his mouth to explain.
The battle is over, and now he just wants to go home.
“Misunderstanding? "The white-robed woman's smile became even brighter. Suddenly, she took a step back, made seals with her hands, and shouted: "Barbaric curse, raise the corpse! ”
The two barbarian men who were sharing drinks suddenly trembled, and their eyes showed horror at the same time. They turned to look at the woman in front of them, and one of them pointed at her like... He wanted to question something, but in the next moment, blood began to overflow from the eyes, ears, mouth and nose of the two big men, and their faces instantly turned blue and black.
"Get up! "
The woman shouted again.
The two barbarian men suddenly stood up. The vitality in their bodies had been completely wiped out, but their bodies suddenly swelled and became They were extremely "strong", and wisps of death energy circulated around their bodies;
At the same time, light green light began to emit from the eyes, and two fangs at the corners of the lips began to slowly Overflowing.
In an instant, the woman used the wine as a guide to sacrifice the two living people into living corpses!
When the woman started to cast the spell, Zheng Fan and the others were already standing. He stood up and prepared himself, but after seeing two living corpses appearing, Zheng Fan, who was standing behind Liang Cheng, suddenly poked Liang Cheng's back with his finger.
?,?,?
Liang Cheng turned around and looked at his master with some confusion.
Zheng Fan nodded his chin forward and said:
“Can your relatives say hello? ”
“…………” Liang Cheng.
