Zhou Liao's team encountered a large tornado and dust storm, and although the middle-aged man in the lead found it in time, there was still not much time left for them to react.

After the tornado raged and gradually moved away, the scattered teams in the evasion process began to regroup.

"How's the loss?"

The middle-aged man's face was pale, and his mood was extremely low as he looked at the dead horses, the ruined carriages, the scattered food, and the water that could never be recovered from the broken wooden barrels.

"Report to your lordship, we have a total of nineteen carriages, and now there are only ...... left."

The one who answered the middle-aged man was the speaker of the dart master who was in charge of escorting the carriage.

He was just an ordinary person who had cultivated the Qi Gathering Technique and practiced a few low-level martial arts, and he seemed cautious when facing a master who had awakened his martial spirit. What's more, he also knew that the middle-aged man who asked him was a stronger existence above the Soul Condensing Martial Artist, which had to make him fearful, for fear that he would anger this big Buddha by saying the wrong thing.

"How much is the loss?

As soon as the middle-aged man was angry, the momentum on his body emanated, and he pressed the dart master beside him.

As a casual cultivator with no background, the middle-aged man can mix up to this day and have a realm of unity, which shows that he is a character. His age is also there, and after working hard for many years, it is reasonable to be able to form his own momentum.

"Nineteen wagons, out of a total of eleven destroyed, seven of which were ...... filled with water"

The dart master felt the momentum of the middle-aged man, his face suddenly turned white, he didn't dare to hesitate anymore, and immediately said their specific losses.

Of their nineteen carriages, twelve were originally filled with water, but now seven were destroyed at once. The car was wrecked, and the wooden barrels filled with water fell apart, and all the water seeped into the sand, and it was difficult to recover even a drop.

As for the carriage with dry food, the damage was also damaged, and except for the food that was blown away by the tornado, the rest was still edible even if it was scattered on the ground.

So it's all about water!

"So we only have five cars of clear water left?"

The middle-aged man's face was gloomy, his eyes narrowed, and he said, "What about your people, how many have died?"

"Twelve, we killed twelve and five were seriously wounded. ”

The dart master didn't mention their casualties just now, because he knew that the person in front of him didn't care about the lives of their ordinary people.

"I have two of my brethren, and you have only twelve dead?"

The middle-aged man said emotionlessly, not hiding his disregard for ordinary people at all.

He said that the two brothers were gone, but they were actually blown away by a tornado, and it is estimated that they are more than lucky. And those two weren't good enough to call him brothers, but this time they came to the desert in a group. When the middle-aged man said the word "brother", he mainly said it to the other dozen or so soul condensing warriors.

Then he said: "Twelve is twelve, and then leave those five seriously injured, and the water will be enough for the rest of us." ”

When there are fewer people, there will be less water consumption. Moreover, compared with middle-aged men and others, those ordinary dart masters are in worse physical condition and need more water to sustain their lives, which is the source of their dislike.

As for the rest of the people who have enough water, it also refers to the distance to their destination, and the water they need for the return journey, they will have to find another way. Now we can only hope that we can replenish the water in the base of the destination.

"Your Excellency...... Leave them behind?"

The dart master said in a trembling voice, and a deep sadness had risen in his heart.

In fact, they risked their lives to come this time, and everyone had already arranged what happened after they came. They knew the danger, but they had to come, because they couldn't refuse the dart, otherwise the end would be even worse.

But now, the few subordinates who really have to abandon their birth and death still make his heart cold, and his heart is cold.

"That's right, don't say that you can't do this kind of trivial thing, go down. ”

The middle-aged man's face remained unchanged, and he waved his hand indifferently and sent the dart master away.

The latter, with a sad face, took the order, and walked to his group of men not far away, and he began to organize the language, to persuade the five seriously wounded men to stay and die.

"Brother Shi, I ran around the east and didn't find them. ”

At this time, Zhou Liao came running from the east direction, and he had just been sent out to search for the two companions who had been swept away.

Although they knew that they were dying, they were all temporary gangs, and there was no real relationship between superiors and subordinates.

And Zhou Liao was the best of all the people except for the middle-aged man, so he searched in the direction of the tornado.

"Well, we did our best, and the result was expected. ”

The middle-aged man sighed, showing a hint of regret. This is the opposite of his indifference to the dart master just now.

"Boss Shi, what should we do next?"

Another companion approached and asked.

"Pack up as soon as possible and continue on your way, there can be no further delay. ”

The middle-aged man looked at the sky and said.

......

In this way, the group drove for another two days, during which two more darts could not stand the desert environment and collapsed, and then were abandoned.

The whole team also looked a little dead as a result.

"Stop!"

After driving for an unknown number of roads, the middle-aged man who was riding a camel at the forefront suddenly raised his right hand and stopped the advance of the team.

"What's wrong, Brother Shi?"

Zhou Liao asked on the side.

"Which friend is in front, you don't have to shrink your head, you can come out. ”

The middle-aged man did not reply to Zhou Liao's words, but raised his voice and shouted at the empty place in front of him.

Poof!poof!poof!

As his voice fell, several figures immediately jumped out from under the sand.

There were six people in total, all of them strong men in their thirties, and each of them held a weapon or sword or sword in his hand.

Obviously bad comers!

"A few friends, if you are ambushing others, then everyone's well water does not interfere with river water, otherwise don't blame us for bullying too many people. ”

Seeing that there were only six people on the other side, the middle-aged man was relieved, and said in a somewhat strong tone.

"Hehehe, I didn't expect us to kick the iron plate, you can detect that we are hiding under the sand, it must be because of special ability, or it is simply a unity realm!"

Among the six people opposite, a man who was tightly wrapped in his whole body spoke in a hoarse voice, but there was obviously no intention of retreating.

He smiled darkly, and continued: "It's easy to let you go, leave half of your water and food, and we don't want money." ”

"Impossible!"

The middle-aged man's face changed, and he knew that he was going to fight this time. 8)
