Chapter 213, Bitter Drowning and Seeking Shelter, Scorching Sun Dunhuang Autumn (II)

Early the next morning, Jiao Zan and others really came to call each other outside the tent.

Qi Han woke up in a daze, his eyes were red, his ears were ringing and he was dizzy, and he felt that he had a headache and was extremely uncomfortable.

What's worse is that his left wrist is starting to hurt again, and the bag of leaves that he had been weaving for too long yesterday probably left some sequelae.

The injuries he had suffered before were heavier than this, but fortunately, with Dong Feng's injury medicine, the muscles and bones and skin injuries could be healed quickly, but this time, he insisted on running away, and came to the northwest in a daze, without any medicine, without the blessing of the elixir, he was naturally like ordinary people, it was very slow, and the broken tendons and veins could not be continued as before, and the left hand basically lost its strength, and after hard work, it would naturally be painful.

Qi Han shook his head, struggled to get up, and moved the five fingers of his left hand lightly a few times, which suddenly made his head sweat and gasp a few times.

Jiao Zan outside saw that he had not been out for a long time, and was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he directly opened the thin cloth tent and got in.

As soon as Qi Han put the disguise on his face, he saw Jiao Zan break in, stepped forward with a frightened face, and asked in a rough voice, "Hey, why is your face so bad?"

Qi Han waved his hand and pushed him away and said, "It's okay, I'll wait outside your tent, and I'll go with you for a morning cooking right away." ”

Seeing his insistence, Jiao Zan didn't think about him, thinking that he had a nightmare just now, he glanced at him a few times, nodded and turned around and went out.

Qi Han's heart fluctuated for a while, and he suddenly remembered the scene when Zhao Yun called for breakfast in the past, just like this, he came in with a bowl of porridge, smiled and opened the tent, and even brought the porridge to his mouth...... He felt the pain in his wrist grow even more, and it seemed to travel along his left arm to the place where his heart was.

Almost subconsciously, he reached out and touched his neck......

Empty.

Nothing left......

Qi Han frowned, closed his eyes, and exhaled a deep breath from his nose for a long time.

He refreshed his spirits, got up and put on his armor, and walked out slowly.

In the early morning, the mist was shrouded in the valley like a light veil, and the visibility around was very high under the faint sunlight, which was much thinner today than yesterday's thick white fog, which showed that the sun would be more scorching today, and the temperature would be higher and hotter.

Qi Han followed Jiao Zan to the depths of the pass, and everyone was gathering in groups to enjoy an extremely rough and simple breakfast. These berries and red fruits are already a luxurious meal for them at this time.

Ma Chao, as the main general, also had to sit in a circle with several lieutenants, holding a pot of pulp in his left hand, holding a handful of red fruits in his right hand, putting it under his lips and chewing it slowly, the juice stained his lips red like Tu Dan, making him look weird and inexplicable and funny. The posture of the world is completely different, but it looks like the leader of the largest gang in the world, Qi Han couldn't help but show a narrow smile.

Ma Chao seemed to feel something, raised his eyes suddenly, and glared at him fiercely.

- This black boy's face didn't move, but why did he always feel like he was laughing at me?! Who will tell me that his eyes did bend a little just now, right, it was definitely not some delusion on my part!

Qi Han saw him glaring at him again, secretly amused, and when he passed by him, he waved his hand at him generously and greeted, "Morning, helper." ”

Hello Leader of the Beggar Gang, Soul Figure, Ma, Chao, Guevara.

Ma Chao didn't understand, but he felt that there was nothing good to say, maybe he was mocking himself (√! You finally made up your brain correctly), his face turned dark, he snorted heavily, turned his face away, and stopped looking at him.

Qi Han smiled, and went to the side to receive the fruit and water allocated to him.

An adjutant general poked the person next to him and whispered: "Hey, see it, see it, that kid thief is so bold, Shicai is peeking at our general again!"

Ma Chao's heart chuckled.

He glared at the lieutenant who had spoken, his eyes full of cold light.

It's a pity that the adjutant general is holding the red fruit, talking happily to the people next to him, and he doesn't feel the cold air spreading to him at all, and he is still smiling: "However, with our general's appearance, tsk, not to mention women, even men have to take a few more looks! This kid's eyes are not bad, and he is so black, but he can also distinguish between handsome and ugly......"

The man next to him was also blind, chewing the fruit arrogantly, looking at Qi Han with a smile, and nodded in agreement: "That's right, Second Brother Wang is right! However, when you just said that his 'eyes are not bad', do you mean that his eyesight is good, or are you saying that his eyes are really good? It's strange to say, I saw him laughing last night, hey, so ugly that I got goosebumps all over the ground, but his eyes...... I still remember it. ”

The man smacked his lips, revealing a slightly confused and contemplative expression, and said, "The shape of that kid's eyes is like a hook, and people can't forget it after watching it once......"

There was an eerie silence around, and the two rammed goods were still muttering.

When they finally realized that something was wrong, they turned their heads in a daze, and then looked up at the two long, straight legs behind them......

"General, general......!"

Ma Chao didn't answer, just had a tiger face, the cold air all over his body was released, and two fists smashed on the heads of the two of them, knocking twice, making the eyes of the two black, crying and begging for mercy.

Ma Chao glared at them and said, "You two don't have to follow me to find a water source, just stay in the camp and continue to guard at night." ”

After speaking, ignoring the pale faces of the two of them, he turned around and left.

The two lieutenants sat in place in deep sorrow as if they were mourning, and they didn't eat anything, but they felt hot and embarrassed.

The soldiers of Xiliang are all proud of their bravery and good fighting, and they go out with Ma Chao to find water, which is much more tiring and tiring than guarding the camp, and there are many dangers along the way, and it is very easy to encounter enemies or unknown dangers, and they will never return. But being selected shows that they are strong and a symbol of being a warrior, but now, Ma Chao wants the two of them to guard the camp and do the same thing with the wounded soldiers and weak brigades, which is tantamount to slapping them in the face and being humiliated in public...... The two lieutenants cried and thought with a depressed expression.

After the morning cooking, Ma Chao took people to set off, changed directions today, and went north to find a water source.

Knowing that Yan Xing's encirclement would shrink day by day, this time, he became more and more cautious to avoid encountering the enemy, so he only brought the strongest fifty elite horsemen under his command, these people are brave and good at fighting, and the soldiers are good at horses, even if they encounter a big enemy, they can retreat and break through quickly.

Of course, except for Qi Han, who is an exception.

Ma Chao faintly felt that this person was still of some use, so he took him, as for whether this person could escape after being in distress, it was not within the scope of his consideration.

Qi Han stepped on the horse depressedly, frowned and glared at Ma Chao in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart.

Isn't he a scholar, why does he need to go on adventures with him, it's enough......

When Ma Tie saw them off, he patted Jiao Zan's mount, pouted in the direction of Qi Han, and admonished: "Jiao Zan, take more care of this kid along the way, he has merit after all." ”

Jiao Zan nodded and said, "The end will be saved." ”

Not to mention that he accidentally ate the poisonous hero thorn, Qi Han saved his life, just say that those rescue army food fruits that saved the whole army, that is also Qi Han's credit, of course he remembers this kindness.

Ma Tie was relieved and went to order troops.

Today, Ma Tie has another task, Ma Chao ordered him to lead people to pick all the red thorn fruits left last night, this time he will bring all the vacated baggage and weaving leaf bags, no matter what, it is enough, then go early and return early, so as not to encounter the enemy.

The cavalry who went north in search of water traveled for a long time, and the sun on the top became hotter and hotter, and the people were hungry and thirsty.

Qi Han was a little numb to the sun, and what he saw was a desert of yellow sand, with undulating sand dunes chaotic and dim in the sun, and the sound of hooves beside him was rustling, making a rustling and tuk-tuk sound, and the sound of horses stepping on the sand was very wonderful, different from the crispness of "gain" in the land. He walked all the way, gradually becoming a little confused and sleepy, staring into the distance, but seeing the place where heaven and earth meet, it seems that there is nothing left, and there seems to be only one person left in the vast universe.

Ma Chao frowned, quietly observing the surroundings, his eyebrows gradually wrinkled tighter and tighter.

Jiao Zan drove his horse to Qi Han's side, handed over the water bag with a smile, and said, "Drink some water." ”

Qi Han's face was burned red by the sun, he was stunned for a moment, and then took it from Jiao Zan's hand, raised his head and poured it into his mouth.

The syrup water extracted by the plant was left overnight, and there were many impurities, and the taste seemed to be worse. But to endure the bitter and disgusting smell of grass, you have to swallow it in your throat, after all, it can quench your thirst and save your life.

Qi Han handed the water bag back to Jiao Zan, and when he saw a tall and strong person like him, he was also tired at this time, which showed that their journey was indeed difficult, and this was not an illusion that Qi Han had.

He stuck out his tongue and licked his chapped lips, raised his hand to block out the sunlight, and for some reason, suddenly felt a gloom in front of him.

Qi Han looked up in surprise and glanced at the sky.

The shadow of a large dark cloud faintly appeared above the huge furnace-like scorching sun, and his eyes froze for a moment, and then he showed a look of confusion and surprise, thinking: "In broad daylight, there are dark clouds, is it going to rain?"

Qi Han's gray eyes lit up, and the galloping horse flew past Jiao Zan and rushed to Ma Chao's side. 166 Reading Network
