It turned out that there were a few people in that group of people who were carrying shotguns, but they didn't pay attention to Poplar and the others at first, thinking that if they were a little scared, Poplar and the others would obediently hand over the car and belongings.

And they have always only sought money and not killed, so as not to cause a large-scale pursuit by the police, so they did not plan to use a shotgun against Poplar and others.

Until two shots suddenly fired in the pickup truck behind them, shooting two horses that rushed towards the Poplar Iron Ox, the others did not dare to act rashly, but the two men blocking the back of the pickup truck quietly picked up their shotguns, ready to shoot the Poplar and the Iron Ox from behind.

But he didn't want a small window to open in the back compartment of the pickup truck, Chu Changjiang had already let Max move from the driver's seat to the rear window as soon as the group of people appeared.

Chu Changjiang himself is also a shooting enthusiast, and his marksmanship is quite good. So the first to shoot the two horses was actually Chu Changjiang.

Later, these two shots were fired by Max.

Chu Changjiang didn't want to hurt people, so he didn't shoot people, only horses.

But Max felt more sorry for the horse, thinking that the horse was really innocent, so his two shots were aimed at the thighs of the two men.

At this moment, the group did not dare to move in the slightest.

Tie Niu smiled and said, "I said that you are going to lose money in this transaction, why don't you leave, and you still want to hurt two more?"

The leader had a gloomy face, but he knew that it would be difficult to please him today, so he finally whistled, took the lead in turning his horse's head, and galloped towards the poplar forest.

The rest of the men helped the two wounded men onto their horses, and the other two men whose horses had been killed also rode with the others, and in a blink of an eye they all disappeared into the poplar forest.

I could only hear the sound of an eagle chirping, and when I looked up, the big eagle that had been hovering quickly flew away.

Bai Yang breathed a sigh of relief, immediately turned around and went to the pickup truck behind first, looked inside through the window, and said, "Is it Boss Chu's gun?" I really didn't expect Boss Chu's marksmanship to be so accurate!"

"I fired the first two shots, and the last two shots were fired by Max!" Chu Changjiang replied with a smile, and then changed his words, "Didn't you ask if you wanted to rest here for the night? In order to prevent these people from coming to disturb them again at night, let's hurry up! Of course, you have to ask what the road conditions are in front of you, in short, safety first!"

Bai Yang hurriedly nodded, and first asked Ma Bingxiao if it was dangerous to travel at night.

Ma Bingxiao said: "There is no danger, anyway, it's all the Gobi Desert, as long as you find the right direction and run!"

"Then let's hurry up, don't let the desert bandits turn around and come back in trouble!" said Poplar.

"I haven't fired a single shot, if they dare to come back, I'm going to have a gun addiction this time!" said Tie Niu.

Poplar didn't answer the subject, but just beckoned to quickly move the trunk that lay in the middle of the road.

After that, he changed to Poplar and rode a motorcycle, and Ma Bingxiao still drove a jeep to lead the way.

Nothing happened along the way, and by one o'clock in the morning, we finally arrived at a village.

The village was sparse and sparse with dozens of households, and the time was too late, so the group drove the car all the way to the door of Old Man Chen's house, and did not alarm the people in the village to get up and watch.

Ma Bingxiao patted the courtyard door and shouted "Grandpa Chen", and soon an old man came out and opened the door, and when he saw Ma Bingxiao's face, he immediately showed great enthusiasm.

The courtyard was very spacious, and the gate was wide enough, and a few people drove the car directly into the yard very steadily, so they greeted the old man one by one.

This old man is naturally the last remaining elder Chen Dalin of the Shahai footman.

Because it was too late, Chen Dalin didn't ask much, just beckoned a few people to go into the house to drink saliva, and then see how to arrange accommodation.

It's just that the place is too remote, and there is no electricity in the village, Chen Dalin said that he wanted to ask his wife to get up and boil water for cooking, but several people hurriedly stopped him, only saying that it was too late, and asked the old man to go into the house to rest, and a few of them would be in the car for one night.

There are eight of them, and although Chen Dalin's house is spacious, it is impossible to live in it.

It was too late to wake up the other villagers, and Chen Dalin couldn't be polite to them, so he could only wake up the family and let out a bed for the two girls to sleep in.

The rest of the men either went to sleep in the car, or went straight to the floor for the night.

Waiting for the next day, Bai Yang respectfully said what he meant, and sure enough, as Ma Daocheng expected, Chen Dalin opened his mouth and said: "You want to find the Black Desert Celestial Elephant Country? Okay, I'll take you there! It's been more than ten years, and my old brothers are all buried there, and I can't forget that I want to see them again, and I want to find out what kind of monster killed them!"

Bai Yang saw that the old man's waist was straight, and his body was still tough, but after all, he was over sixty years old, and it would be troublesome if he entered the desert when the old man's body could not bear it.

So Bai Yang still asked: "The old man should be in his sixties, right?" Of course, we hope that the old man can personally guide us, but the old man is so old, I am still a little worried about the old man's health, and besides, the family may not be willing to let the old man go, right?"

"My family can't control me!" Chen Dalin said bluntly, "As for my body, you can rest assured! Didn't you say that there is a big boss with me? He is not much younger than me, is he? I can hold on, and I have no problem! Besides, I am afraid that only I can take you in, and then take you out, and if someone else changes, I am afraid that if I take you in, I may not be able to get out!"

Bai Yang heard that the old man was so confident, so he didn't say more, and went to discuss it with Chu Changjiang and the others, and finally Chu Changjiang personally thanked the old man and took out 20,000 yuan to Chen Dalin as a reward.

Chen Dalin was very happy, but he didn't excuse himself, and gave the money to his wife.

His wife and several children were reluctant to let him go into the desert at such an age, but with 20,000 yuan in hand, they didn't say anything more.

After that, we discussed what we had to prepare for entering the desert, and of course we needed camels.

Chen Dalin has four camels at home, and eight camels from other families in the village.

Of course, these camels can't be free, Chen Dalin negotiated the cost with Chu Changjiang, first pay the deposit in the form of rental, if you can bring all the camels back safely, after arriving home, only the rent will be collected, and the deposit will be refunded.

And once the camel is injured or lost, it will be compensated according to the price.

Chu Changjiang didn't have any opinions, and directly gave the deposit to Chen Dalin.

He went to bed early that night, and the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Chen Dalin woke everyone up.

Ma Bingxiao also got up, but Chen Dalin probably knew that Ma Daocheng would not be willing to let Ma Bingxiao go on an adventure, so he ignored Ma Bingxiao's pleas.

Ma Bingxiao was helpless, and followed the group to walk out of the distance, and then reluctantly stopped.

The group waited out of Ruowan Village and walked northeast along a black stone mountain behind the village.

Chen Dalin told several people that as long as they crossed this black stone mountain, they would enter the black desert.

Chen Dalin felt sorry for the camel, and said that the camel in the desert is more expensive than anything else, and once the camel is tired, it is impossible for people to come out of the desert.

So he told a few people to lead the camel on foot, and then ride the camel after entering the desert.

Camels look clumsy and sluggish, but they are actually tall and long-legged, and they are not very slow to walk.

Chen Dalin led the camel in front, a man in his sixties and seventies, still walking very briskly, and the others had to speed up their pace in order not to be left behind.

At more than nine o'clock, you can see the edge of the Black Rock Mountain, Chen Dalin pointed with his hand, and said: "Go around the foot of the mountain in front of you, and you will enter the desert, and you can rush to the mushroom head to rest tonight." ”

Tie Niu opened his mouth to ask why it was called "mushroom head", and Chen Dalin smiled and said that he would naturally know when he arrived at the place.

And because they got up too early in the morning, several people felt a little tired, and Poplar was about to propose a short rest, when suddenly he heard the eagle chirping loudly, and when he looked up, he saw a big eagle hovering slightly in mid-air, and suddenly swooped down towards the back of the Black Rock Mountain.

Followed by two "bangs", it sounded like the sound of a shotgun.

Poplar was taken aback, only afraid that the big eagle had been hit by a shotgun, but unexpectedly, as the shadow flew up, the big eagle flew up from behind the black rock mountain, and was still hovering in mid-air, as if it was about to pounce again at any time.

"Someone just shot and didn't hit the eagle?" and the eagle didn't fly away quickly, what kind of eagle is so fierce?" said Tie Niu.

Bai Yang turned his head to look at Chen Dalin, but saw that he was already frowning, and his mouth was babbling, as if he was cursing in a low voice.

"What's wrong with the old man?" asked Poplar hurriedly.

"I'm scolding which damn one of these dares to shoot at the Golden Pupil Condor!" Chen Dalin said, with a look of anger on his face.

"Golden Pupil Condor?"

Poplar Tie Niu spoke in unison, and they all looked at Chen Dalin.

Tie Niu blurted out and asked, "What golden-eyed condor? Isn't this just an ordinary eagle?"

"This is not an ordinary eagle, this is a golden-eyed eagle that is rare to see in a hundred years! It is the most auspicious bird in the world, which can drive away demons and ward off evil spirits! It is hateful that someone actually shoots it, if I let me know who is shooting, I will not spare him!"

The poplar iron cow looked at each other. The others heard them talking about the eagle and chased after them. Hongxing said: "But I look like an ordinary eagle, how can the old man be sure that this is a golden pupil condor?"

"How can an ordinary eagle be so big! If you look closely, its pointed beak and claws are golden, and its eyes are also golden, but they are far away and cannot be seen clearly!" Chen Dalin said.
