Although Hermulan's shot was a risk, she was at least eighty percent sure that she would be able to get out of the way.

In the era of cold weapons, her strength and skills are simply open, and these horse thieves have no bows and arrows and long-range weapons, even if they can't get their hands on it, they can at least grab a horse and run away.

This is the origin of the audacity of the artist.

He Mulan expected it to be right, this red cloak was indeed the leader of this team, at least there was no second person who came out and casually said "kill them" or something.

Everyone stared closely at the scimitar in Mullan's hand, for fear that she would cut someone's throat with a shake of her hand.

The red cloak is also very bold, and it is so restrained that it dares to speak.

"Listen to you, are you Han?"

It is also Chinese, but with a strong accent, like a local dialect.

Just now, He Mullan shouted, "Come down for me!" Because I was nervous in my heart, I used my native language, authentic Mandarin, probably for this collar to listen.

Mandarin can also be heard is Chinese, Xianbei dialect and Lu Shui Hu dialect is very obvious, ancient transportation is inconvenient, Chinese dialect is different in each place, can hear Chinese words thank God, can you expect a horse thief to say what Luoyang Zhengyin is not in?

He Mulan didn't want to reveal his identity, so he nodded his head along the way.

"Yes, I'm Han. You're also Han?"

She deliberately pinched her already hoarse voice a little rougher, looking like a traveler who often traveled back and forth in the desert.

"I'm also Han." The red cloak was still in place, "A warrior like you, it's definitely not for me a little horse thief to ambush here late at night, what do you want, let's discuss."

"As a Han Chinese, you actually do such a thing, don't you want any integrity?" He Mullan pretended to be angry and cursed, and used a force under his feet.

At this time, the runaway was carried up the sand dune, and when he saw Hemulan, the runaway pointed at him and shouted.

It's just that because of the language barrier, He Mullan has no idea what he's shouting.

[That's this person!] It was this person who planted us, and there were dozens of brothers who died at his hands! I escaped from the caravan, and he must have followed my footsteps! 】

The fugitive didn't expect the caravan to follow. If you encounter a large group of horse thieves or wolves on the way, you are not a vegetarian.

Fortunately, he did meet the horse thieves of the brigade, but the leader of this group was captured by him.

"This man came with you?" 】

[Didn't your team rush for supplies?] Who the hell did you offend! 】

[So powerful, no wonder the blood cloak was caught by him. 】

This man in the red cloak originally thought that this person was ambushed here, and it was a newly invited master from the leader of the Sand Wind Thieves to ambush him, so he made a tentative speech.

However, this man did not look like an assassin, otherwise he had already done it, and when he heard the horse thief who fled back say that he was a man from the caravan, he was already relieved in his heart, and began to speak with lotus flowers.

"This warrior, are you the caravan's escort?" It is very common for caravans to ask for escorts, and the better the skill, the higher the treatment, and when the red cloak heard that this person could kill more than thirty horse thieves by himself, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he had an idea in his heart.

"So what?" He Mullan pretended not to care and said, "Don't talk to me so much."

The red cloak estimated that this person was probably tracking the escapees here, but a large group of horse thieves appeared, trapped in the land of the sand and did not dare to move, so he simply took the risk to capture the thief and capture the king first, wanting to take him hostage and go out, or what conditions were to be proposed.

He guessed eight/nine of ten, but he didn't guess the identity of He Mulan, and he didn't know what He Mullan was going to do when he caught him.

He Mulan didn't want any conditions, he just wanted to grab the red cloak and find a place to get rid of the people behind him and torture him, and his ability to speak Chinese strengthened her thoughts, so He Mullan didn't bother anymore, bent down and grabbed the shoulder of the red cloak, and just put a knife on his neck, forcing him to walk next to the other horse.

"If you don't want to die, leave! Give me that horse! "

"Warrior, since you are the guard of the caravan, you are only born and died for money, so it is better to follow us. Look at your skills, you are not an idle person, you will fall into the caravan as a convoy, what twists and turns should there be......" Red Cloak opened his mouth cautiously, each vibration of his vocal cords brought his throat closer to the scimitar, which made him speak more carefully.

"Although we are only horse thieves, we will have a big deal to do soon, I am willing to give a bag of gold to redeem myself, if you are willing to join, there is still gold to share, how about it?"

He Mulan originally wanted to impatiently carry him on the horse, but suddenly thought of the wealth in the Windy City, and the evil person who had been forced to interrogate by Zheng Zong with a needle in his nails, and immediately turned his head to look at the escapee.

The red cloak was as delicate as a heart, and immediately shouted in the Hun dialect and asked the fleeer: "Did you say something when you fell into their hands! 】

The runaway shuddered, "One of them was a devil...... I'm ...... I didn't say much......]

Didn't say much, that's pretty much it.

Red Cloak closed her eyes and began to think that she had guessed wrong.

This man may not have come after the escapee, but he heard that there was such a fortune and wanted to try his luck with him.

Maybe he's just trying to get money, and he's just trying to hold himself hostage.

If he had thought of himself as an inconsequential person before, maybe he wasn't so passive now. [,！ He may have mistaken himself for the leader of the Sandwind Bandits, and that was even more dangerous.

He Mulan carried him on the horse, and the red cloak noticed that she was very skillful in her posture on the horse, and that she should be good at riding and hunting, and that she was not an inferior horse.

It shouldn't be an important person who will come to the adventure alone, or he is really the only one who wants to try his luck after hearing the news in the caravan.

Such a person is the most difficult to deal with, because of money and greed, only one person has no taboos, maybe after escaping and killing him directly.

The back of the red cloak was already soaked with sweat, and he was thinking about what to do, but He Mullan thought that the "big deal" these people were talking about must be referring to the dowry in the Windy City......

If the dowry in Windy City is ownerless, the Sandwind Thieves only need to go in and dig it out, so why do they stay outside as if they are about to fight at any time?

What kind of "big deal" are they going to do, and who are they waiting for?

He Mulan pondered and asked him pretending to be interested, "A bag of gold?" How big is the bag?"

At this time, the red cloak and his party did not return for a long time, and the terrible sound on the sand ground rose again, as if countless people were playing the sharpest melody at the same time, and a team of about □□ hundred people drove to the bottom of the hill.

Probably received the news from the person who reported it, and surrounded the sand dunes where He Mulan was located, and he couldn't fly out with his wings plugged.

"Give him a bag of gold!"

The red cloak shouted.

Not long after, a knight came, and threw a bag from a distance, and the bag was not very large, about a foot square, but a bag of one foot square contained a lot of gold, and Hermulan even saw several sandwind thieves swallow their spit.

"I'm afraid the warriors don't know, although I am the leader of this horse thief, I am only one of the leaders of several leaders, and I am not a big leader. To be able to give so much gold is already all we have saved. But there is a treasure ahead of me, and there is an innumerable amount of gold buried, and if the warriors are willing to protect me there, you can put a few more bags like this when the time comes."

The red cloak touched the horse's mane and continued seemingly with ease: "I wonder what you think?"

"What are you doing with treasure to tell me? Just dig it yourself." He Mulan sneered, "I think you want to trick me into picking up gold, and then let one of your men cut me with a knife, right?"

"Now that you know our secret, even if you capture me or kill me, my men will hunt you down until you are killed. You can only survive if you follow me." Seeing that she ran away without driving a horse, the red cloak was proud in her heart, knowing that her life had been saved, and she couldn't even recruit a master of martial arts.

"Anyway, it's all a hard job, and it's no different from using our caravan's money to fight our horse thieves and using our money to work for us, isn't it?"

"Of course not, I don't want to be a horse thief."

He Mullan feigned hesitation.

"Then I'll pay you to hire you to keep me safe, just like a guest, if I want you to help me, you can choose to help or not to help, not counting our sand wind thieves, how about it?"

"Really?"

"We are sand pirates, not scoundrels, so we take it seriously."

A smug smile tugged at the corners of the red cloak's mouth.

He is one of the five leaders of the Sand Wind Thieves, who are nominally a team of horse thieves, but in fact they are composed of five teams that act alone, helping each other on weekdays, obeying the dispatch of the most powerful leader, cooperating with each other, and surviving on this trade route.

However, the most powerful leader suddenly wanted to take his men and horses out of the sand wind thieves, and also resorted to means to make the leader with the third strength die under the Wei mission.

Horse thieves have the rules of horse thieves, once they join the gang, they cannot break up unless they die. It is precisely because of this rule that many horse thieves who are like loose sand can unite a huge armed force.

Otherwise, this one will be broken up today, and the one will be broken up tomorrow, how can it be possible to live?

Now that he has the intention of whitewashing, and has framed his former companions, the other leaders are not fools, and each has ears and eyes in his people, and then there is news that this sandstorm thief has somehow obtained a very noble person, wants to exchange for ransom, and it is likely that he has taken refuge in some force.

When they came all the way, the people and horses of the Great Leader also fought among themselves, it turned out that the Wei envoy encountered a strong wind in the Windy City, and all his subordinates wanted to take out the wealth, but the Great Leader didn't want the treasure and wanted to take people to join a certain force, he couldn't think of it himself, but most of the people under his hands were people who licked blood on the knife and saw the money, so they had all kinds of thoughts, and caused civil strife.

In addition to the big collar and the dead three collars, the remaining three branches are gathered near this Windy City, and they are about to start negotiations, if they can cooperate best, the three parties will take out the treasure together and divide it equally, if they can't cooperate, I'm afraid they will have to do it first to suppress it, and then distribute the treasure in their hands according to their strength.

The strength of the red cloak ranks fourth among the leaders, and the men and horses under his hands are less than a thousand, but he is generous and sleek, and the men and horses under his hands are extremely loyal, so except for assassinating him and swallowing his men, it is unlikely that he wants to defect.

This is also why Red Cloak first thought that Hermulan was invited by someone else to assassinate him.

But on the other hand, there are indeed few peerless masters under the red cloak, once the negotiations really start, there will be a competition or assassination or something like that, he has no advantage at all, and he urgently needs to recruit masters.

Like. [,！ Sleepy God sent a pillow, and he was just about to want a master, and the guards in this caravan rushed in. He had sent his men to investigate the caravan before, it was just an ordinary spice team, and it often traveled to and from this route, and it would never be a bait arranged by other sandstorm thieves, and although the identity of this caravan was complicated, it could be borrowed and used......

As for the money......

It depends on whether he has the life to take it.

He Mulan originally only wanted to hijack him to find the whereabouts of the Wei State Mission, but in the meaning of this remark, there seemed to be some disputes within the Sand Wind Thieves, so that they could not pick up the treasure along the way.

So she thought about it, suddenly put down the scimitar in her hand, and jumped off the horse.

The rest of the people looked nervously at the red cloak, and it was as if he had given the order to dismember Hermulan's body, but the red cloak only made a "stop" gesture and smiled as He Mullan picked up the gold on the ground.

"Protect you for a month, two bags of gold."

Hermulan spoke firmly.

"This bag is the ransom for your life."

"Hahaha, deal!"

The red cloak laughed out loud.
