Looking at He Lilan's determined gaze in front of him, Kester's heart was deeply touched. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Father, I won't let you be ashamed!" Kester muttered to himself.

"Brother, how much more do we have?" He Ling'er sat down weakly and nibbled on a bite of dry corn.

"Ling'er, you will be able to get there soon," He Lilan comforted, "It's almost time to rest today, and Silver Wing has already gone to find a place to take shelter from the wind." ”

"Brother, I know we should be far away, right?" He Ling'er's originally smart voice seemed very weak, "I'm not the kind of child who doesn't know anything anymore, don't lie to me, can you tell me the truth?" ”

Just as He Lilan was hesitating, Kester spoke: "It's true that there is still a long distance from the target city, but there should be an oasis twenty kilometers ahead of us, where we can rest for a short time, so Ling'er, you don't have to worry." ”

"Woohoo!" Silver Wing landed on Kester's left shoulder from the sky, and chirped at Kester a few times.

Silently sighed that the physical fitness of the demonic beast was good, Kester took He Ling'er from He Lilan's hand, he threw the white feather silver wings into the sky, and carried her on his back: "There is a place to sleep behind the stone about five hundred meters ahead." ”

"Brother Yun, why can you understand Xiaobai and Xiaoyin's voices?" After hearing the news that there was an oasis ahead, He Ling'er's mood seemed to be much better.

"I was forced to learn when I was only four or five years old." Kester kept moving forward while remembering the old white expression of hatred for himself.

White Feather and Silver Wing also chirped when they heard Kester's words, and landed on the boulder in front of them, after all, they were only in their infancy, and they were short of food and worked as coolies these days, which also made it difficult for them.

Putting down He Ling'er on his back, Kester divided half of the corn in his hand into three parts, and threw one-third each to White Feather and Silver Wing. As a carnivorous mid-to-high-level demonic beast, the two young birds have completely fallen, from the disdain for food two days ago to now even if it is just a corn kernel will fight for it, even He Lilan feels a little unbearable when he looks at it.

"Brother Ye, there is someone in front!" Just as Kester was spreading the ground with the sack of dry food in his hand, He Lilan pointed to Dongfang and exclaimed in surprise.

Kester followed He Lilan's finger and looked forward, only to see that under the background of the sunset, several figures riding camels were slowly coming from the east.

"Be careful, the other party doesn't have to be a friend." Kester's expression was serious and stopped He Ling'er, who was cheering and preparing to rush forward. If in the past, he was definitely the one who took the lead in asking for help, and it can only be said that more than a month of wandering has made the originally young Kester a lot calmer.

"Ling'er, come to me." He Lilan also realized that the chance encounter in front of him might not necessarily be a good thing, so he pulled He Ling'er behind his back. You must know that the probability of encountering a thief group and a mercenary group in the desert is not much different, not to mention that the mercenary group occasionally does not mind making a cameo appearance as a thief group.

Under Kester's alert, the trio and the birds are ready for battle, but luckily, the person doesn't look like a bad guy (Kester: If you're not a bad guy, be on guard).

The picture cuts to the other side, where a small team of seven or eight people is silently moving forward on the Gobi Desert.

"Hey, Nangong, I said, we've all been gone for a day, it's time to take a break, right?" A blood elf in armor complained, "You all have camels to ride, I'm going to fly, I'm an elf, elf!" It's not the Winged Birdmen. It's tiring to fly for so long. ”

Character introduction: Lofa, elf clan, sixth-order warrior, deputy head of the shadow mercenary group, is a chatterbox.

"Don't Bilibili, you mouthy goblin, you might as well fly a few more steps if you have the strength to speak." The young mercenary, who seemed to be the leader of the team, said angrily.

Character introduction: Nangong Ying, Terran, seventh-order demon knight, head of the shadow mercenary group, is a good big brother with a cold face and a warm heart.

"Oh my god, I'm a beautiful blood elf," Lofa yelled, "don't compare me to that race. ”

"Smack" Luofa's head was hit by Nangong Ying's scabbard.

Without waiting for him to cry out, the mercenary who was exploring the path in front reported: "Commander, there is someone in front!" ”

"Prepare for battle!" Nangong Ying was clever and yelled at the surroundings, and then he turned his head again, "Luofa, you have the best eyesight, let's get closer first and see who they are." ”

"Why is it me again, last time... Okay, okay, I'll go, the head of the regiment is mighty! Looking at Nangong Ying's murderous gaze, Lofa wisely succumbed.

"You can't tell! It made everyone nervous. Seeing the three and a half children in front of him, Nangong Ying slapped the pathfinder mercenary on the head.

"You didn't give me a chance to say it..."The pathfinder mercenary slandered in his heart, of course he didn't dare to say it, but only said resignedly: "They have been standing there since they saw us, I just think it's a little weird." ”

"Lofa, come back, I'll go and get in touch with them."

"Who are you?" Without waiting for Nangong Ying to speak, the young man opposite asked first.

Hearing the old-fashioned question on the other side, Nangong Ying was unexpected, in his imagination, it should be after his own words, the three people on the opposite side rushed forward to ask for shelter with tears in their eyes.

"We are the Shadow Mercenary Group, and I am the head of the group, Nangong Ying." After a pause, Nangong Ying also asked, "What about you?" ”

"My name is Ye Lingyun, I am a descendant of a hermit family, they are He Lilan and He Ling'er, we plan to go to Lyle City in the northwest, can we go with you?" Kester had already figured out his rhetoric.

"This is more normal, otherwise they would be like teenagers of this age before." Nangong Ying replied while thinking, "It just so happens that we are also going to Lyle City, but if you want to go together, please lay down your weapons first." ”

"You're going to... Bivouac? Gosh, camping in a place like this is too hasty, right? After confirmation, the Shadow Mercenary Group accepted the three Kesters, no, Lofa began to complain again, "There should be a village five kilometers ahead, right, in order to save a few steps, you can also do it." ”

"White Feather has already patrolled the sky," Kester touched White Feather's head on his right shoulder, "there's nothing ahead." ”

"It's... Storm Eagle? Nangong Ying's vision was quite broad, and he recognized at a glance that the little bird that he had ignored before was actually a rare sixth-order demonic beast.

"Well, but Bai Yu has only hatched for a long time." Kester nodded.

(I didn't ask about the Silver Wings because the ice sculpture is rarer, and no one recognizes the Shadow Mercenary Group)

"Storm Eagle's eyesight shouldn't be wrong, Lofa, didn't you say there would be a village ahead?" Nangong Ying frowned and asked at the blood elves flying in the air.

"I don't know..."Looking at Nangong Ying's gloomy face, Lofa shouted innocently, "Could it be that the map is too shabby?" Next time I will definitely not trade the money from the map for a drink, I swear... Ah~ Help! ”

Kester's face was full of black lines and he looked at the blood elf who had changed jobs and started to be funny: "Uh, in fact, there should be an oasis about 20 kilometers north of the front, that's right." ”

"20 kilometers?" Nangong Ying frowned, "It's too far, although we should take a trip from that side in the oasis, it seems that it should be too late today." ”

"Nangong, you don't really plan to camp here, do you?" Lofa slapped his forehead, "Oh my God, my bathtub, my kapok bed, my magic core bubble wine, oh no! ”

"Shut up, you shitty goblin! I haven't pursued your map yet. ”

"How many times have I said it, I'm a beautiful blood elf, not that kind of sissy creature..."

Of course, this argument was inconclusive, and in the end, the sullen Luo Fa could only follow Nangong Ying's arrangement and lead everyone to set up camp.

"Hey, it's really a professional camp." Unlike the previous Ivory Mercenary Regiment, Kester witnessed the construction of the camp by the Ivory Mercenary Regiment this time. Don't underestimate this temporary camp, once the night monsters or thieves attack, the temporary camp is the key to the survival of the mercenary group.

"That's nature," Lofa interjected, "you made it a camp before?" That aesthetic can't eat well at all. ”

"By the way, can you tell me about your mercenary group?" Kester inquired.

Of course, Lofa's big mouth can't control anything, but he is not stupid to be the deputy head of the regiment, and in exchange, Kester also provided a lot of information about the "hermit family" (thanks again to Lao Bai for his teaching).

"Aha, that is, you picked them up too?" Lofa was really surprised this time, "You took the two of them alone for more than ten days in the Gobi Desert?" ”

"Well, I can't say I picked it up, right... It can only be said that it is a meeting in Pingshui. ”

"It's already very good to have this courage," Nangong Ying walked over with a gourd of wine, "Come and take a sip to warm your body, the spirit of the fourth-order salamander's magic core, this thief's weather is almost freezing at night." ”

"Thank you, Brother Nangong." Kester took the gourd with both hands.

"Nangong, you can't be biased towards outsiders, give me some too." Lofa's saliva was all over the ground.

"Roll out of the calf, today it's your turn to keep vigil, and you can't drink." Nangong Ying mercilessly recaptured the wine gourd from Luofa.

"We just joined you, and we didn't have much to contribute, so why don't you let me keep vigil." Kester was a little reluctant.

Nangong Ying shook his head: "Brother Ye, it's not that I can't trust you, but I always believe in my own people." ”

Although this was said very bluntly, it reassured Kester: "Then thank you Brother Nangong for taking care of me." ”

"Hey, why my vigil!" Lofa wailed.

"Because you talk a lot!"
