Chapter 236: The Horse Thief

Wu Zheng's eyes wandered, and he kept spinning on the kettle in his hand. A sneer flashed in Xiaohua's heart, and then she said, "Can't help it, right?"

Wu Zheng nodded subconsciously. But then, he felt that something was wrong, and he shook his head again.

The wind and sand are still there, but there is gradually a tendency to get smaller, which can't help but make everyone happy. This kind of wind and sand is the most uncertain factor. It can be up to several months. It's short, I'm afraid it will take more than half a day. Wu Zheng and them this time, their luck should be good, they don't have to become dry corpses.

After a while, the wind and sand were completely reduced, and several people came out from under the cliff again. The bearded man regained his direction and said, "Shall we go south or go back?"

Hearing this, Xiaohua's brows furrowed again. Originally, if it hadn't been for this sudden sandstorm, he would have decided to move on. But the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and such a moth came out halfway, and it was decided again.

Instead of replying immediately, Xiaohua looked at the horses and asked, "How are they?"

The bearded man saw Xiaohua's gaze looking at the horse, and also looked over, and then sighed: "It should be almost gone, after all, they are not camels, in this Gobi, it is already a miracle to be able to live for so long." ”

Hearing this, Xiaohua's brows furrowed even tighter, but her mouth said affirmatively: "Let's move on." ”

"Huh?" Wu Zheng exclaimed in surprise, he never expected that under such harsh conditions, Xiaohua could make such an irrational decision, and he even suspected that Xiaohua was blown into a madman by the wind.

"Okay. The bearded man did not question anything, and led the horse and pulled desperately towards the south. At this moment, the horse was almost extremely weak, and even fell to his knees on all fours, and no matter how much the beard pulled, he did not move a bit.

"Damn, livestock. The bearded man burst into flames and kicked at the horses.

If it were in normal times, the bearded man's move would definitely attract a circle kick from Gunma. But at this moment, these horses had no strength to resist, and they were really standing up after being taught such a lesson by the bearded man.

The bearded method is still very effective, and many good horses are actually beaten. Animals are different from people, as long as they are beaten, they will work. As for people, after being beaten, the chances of resisting are a little greater. Naturally, Wu Zheng was not among this group of people.

After the wind and sand, everything changed dramatically. Mo Qing and Xiaohua also tried to find out where they had stayed before, and dug up some other supplies by the way. But obviously, it was Xiaohua who underestimated this sandstorm. After a disaster of this magnitude, there is still a shadow of people staying. As far as the eye can see, there is a patch of golden sand.

The sun is like fire, scorching the earth. Not far away, the ground already looked a little distorted, and the effects of the heat were quite severe. Wu Zheng and the four of them only have a pot of water now, and everyone is carrying that pot of water. It can be said that this kettle has unconsciously become the hope of several people.

As long as the water remains, there is hope that they will not be defeated by the demons in their hearts. In fact, in this situation, the most terrible thing is not the vast yellow sand, but the inner collapse.

The four of them walked in the Gobi Desert and did not choose to ride those horses again. It's not that a few people don't want to, but these animals can't bear it. Even the lightest flower here was enough to crush the horses so that they could no longer stand up. This is the so-called, last straw.

Xiaohua's heart was already calculated, and they would kill the horse until tonight. From tonight to tomorrow, they can drink horse blood and not die of thirst in the Gobi.

However, after two days, it may be the saddest time for them. After all, they had no horses, and the speed of their march next door had naturally slowed down. The three days that the bearded man had said at the beginning were three days of horseback riding. Now that there is no horse, Xiaohua is conservatively estimated to hold out for another four or five days.

Mo Qing was still carrying the long sword, in fact, before he set off, he really wanted to turn around and go back. As for why he didn't say that, he still wanted to hear Xiaohua's opinion. Although he is the second prince, he thinks that he is not very smart. But Xiaohua is different, he always feels that Xiaohua has amazing judgment and command ability. And coupled with the previous relationship, he decided that he wanted to believe Xiaohua.

The road in the Gobi Desert is not difficult to walk, even if there is a lot of yellow sand that is an eyesore, it is fine. So the four men and four horses walked like this, one foot deep and one foot shallow, leaving a series of footprints of different sizes and shapes.

A few people don't have to worry about any more dangers, after all, they have experienced such a big scene as sandstorms. As for Nanyao's pursuers, it is impossible to catch up with the vast Gobi.

Gradually, the sun began to set, and the temperature began to drop. Xiaohua knew that it was almost time, and these horses were about to come to the end of their lives.

But at this moment, Wu Zheng suddenly shouted: "What are those black dots over there?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately looked over, after all, in the vast Gobi, any small change may cause worries about life.

But when I saw that direction, it was really as Wu Zheng said, and there were a few black spots. Not only that, but the black spot was still expanding, and finally Xiaohua saw clearly that it was a few people on horseback. With horsewhips in their hands, they galloped straight towards Wu Zheng and them.

"Oh no, it's a horse thief. The bearded man shouted, this horse thief haunts the Gobi all year round, and usually robs caravans. But this time it was strange that it actually started the idea of a few of them. If they knew that the four of them had nothing, they would probably regret running so far.

Xiaohua had a faint smile on her face, and said casually: "It's not bad, but our luck is coming." ”

"Luck?" Wu Zheng looked at the horse thieves who came on horseback suspiciously, and subconsciously had the idea of running away.

"They had horses, food, and water. Xiaohua said word by word.

At this moment, Wu Zheng also reacted to what was going on. It's been a long time, Xiaohua is going to rob the other party! Okay, you cunning little flower, a goblin. As for the horse thieves who came galloping, I don't know what Xiaohua thinks at the moment. If you knew, I'm afraid you would be so angry that you vomited blood, so you just turned around and ran.

Xiaohua had an idea in her heart, but she still had the same on her face

Yi showed a frightened look. When those people came over, there was another burst of flying sand. There were more than a dozen of them, each with a long knife in his hand, wielding it to the rhythm of the horses.

Wu Zheng heard their conversation, and one of the thin men said happily: "It's really refreshing, I didn't expect that as soon as the wind and sand ended, I met the prey." ”

"Acquaintances, hand over all your things, and we can consider sparing your lives. A scarred face said coldly to Wu Zheng and the others.

Xiaohua suddenly trembled, panic and fear flashed in her eyes, and she hurriedly took a few steps back and collapsed to the ground.

Wu Zheng looked at Xiaohua's performance, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart, Xiaohua, Xiaohua, you are really good at acting! But naturally, he doesn't need to demolish Xiaohua, unless he wants to be beaten. So Wu Zheng also made a frightened look, covering his cheeks with his hands, trembling in horror. Speaking of which, Wu Zheng's performance is much more real than Xiaohua's, because after all, he is acting in his true colors.

And the bearded man and Mo Qing were already ready for battle. But when they saw Xiaohua and the two behaving like this, they had no choice but to pretend.

However, the horse thieves didn't see the abnormality of Xiaohua and the others, but laughed out loud. "These, you see the one who covered his face with his hands, he was almost scared to pee. ”

Wu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that he could be tricked by this? Okay, he admitted that he pretended to be very similar, as if he was really scared to pee.

"Hand it over. The scarface hooked his fingers, clearly losing interest in wasting time.

But I saw Xiaohua suddenly speak: "Don't worry, as the saying goes, a good meal is not afraid of being late, and you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." ”

"Eat tofu?" The group of horse thieves also had no culture, but they knew the word eating tofu very well, and subconsciously showed a bad smile.

Xiaohua was impressed by these scumbags and didn't want to play anymore. So he got up cleanly, without a speck of dust. Then, Xiaohua twisted her neck and wrists, and said proudly: "Let's go together." ”

As soon as this remark came out, it did not anger the horse thieves. Instead, make them laugh. Laughing, one of the horse thieves also pointed to Xiaohua's nose and said: "With your little arms and legs, you really don't know the height of the sky, didn't your mother tell you that children can't talk nonsense?"

When Xiaohua heard this, her face instantly pulled down. Immediately afterwards, Xiaohua raised his feet, and a burst of yellow sand rose instantly. The horses of the horse thieves were immediately frightened and neighed.

And at this time, Xiaohua also moved. I saw that he first rushed in front of the man who had just spoken to mock him, and then slammed his kick. As expected, the man fell in response, took a biting posture, and ate a mouthful of sand.

Immediately afterwards, Xiaohua's movements started again, and she kicked the scarred man again. Although they had already reacted after Xiaohua knocked down one person, it was Xiaohua's strength that was superior in the end, and kicked the scarface off the horse with a single kick.

Many horse thieves were boiling at once, and they never expected that the prey in their mouths would bite back, and they would not be angry. They held the hilt of the knife in their hands, and one by one they were murderous, and they killed Xiaohua with a gesture.
