004, Sandstorm

The terrifying sandstorm was like a giant beast devouring the sky, spreading its terrifying claws and rolling all over the sky, and no creatures survived in its pass. The wind stopped, and when the beast receded, the whole desert fell into an unprecedented calm after the catastrophe.

Mo Guo'er in the horse's belly was buried deep in the yellow sand, surrounded by the damp heat of the belly full of blood.

Mo Guo'er opened her eyes, her eyes were full of darkness, and her surroundings were filled with the smell of blood.

"Zapi? Zapi! Zapi! After shouting a few times, she still couldn't hear the sound, and she panicked and pushed away the obstacles in front of her.

is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and her strength has long been exhausted in the run, Mo Guo'er opened her bright eyes, bit her lip tightly, and picked the heavy sand on the top of her head again and again, even if her arms were already numb, she still kept picking.

There has always been a belief in her heart: she can't die here! She can't die here! It wasn't until her hands were worn out and covered in blood that she crawled out with difficulty.

The four fields are silent, all that is left is the sound of the wind passing through the sand dunes, and in the distant sky, a piece of gold is dyed with blood red in the eyes of women.

"Zapi! Zapi! Heart-rending and crying voices echoed around with the wind.

Mo Guo'er rubbed the fine sand flying into her eyes with her bloody hand, and cried even more: "Zapi, Zapi, you can't die, I only have you left, you can't die, you can't ......"

Mo Guoer stumbled, kept falling and getting up, getting up and falling again, and finally crawled over one sand dune after another on her knees, but finally her body rolled down from the high sand dunes due to severe lack of water and extreme overdraft.

"Water, water......" Mo Guo'er lay on the sand, looking at the clear sky like blue satin, and smiled weakly.

Ema, Father Ma, my daughter has come to accompany you.

The smile on Mo Guo'er's small pale face did not dry, but she closed her eyes silently.

Kurilie and Zapi were swept into the sky by the wind and sand.

The hurricane was like a sharp blade cutting blood marks on their strong muscles, and both of them turned pale and endured extreme pain, and when the hurricane left, the two fell into the thick sand like broken cloth.

Half a quarter of an hour later, suddenly Lilie's fingertips moved slightly, weakly propped himself up, patted the shoulder of the pupi beside him, and shouted, "Puppi! Zapi! Wake up......"

Zapi's body moved slightly, his hands were on the ground, he raised his head, and lay on his back on the sand like him, looking at the empty blue sky, and his heart was excited: they were not dead! They didn't die!

"Let's go!" Suddenly, he turned over and stood up, looked at the endless desert in front of him, took out a golden dagger, and took out a round silver object from under the gem that glowed red.

Zapi also stood up and took a closer look, and said in surprise: "Compass?!" ”

"Well, let's go! Go find her. Following the instructions of the compass, after two days and one night of exhausting searching, they finally found the place where she had been buried.

"What about people?! Mo Guoer?! Mo Guoer?! When he found that the person was missing, Zapi shouted in terror.

His lips were very dry, his thick lips had cracked several times, and blood was all over his lips along the cracks, and he was staring at his eyes in a hurry.

"What to do? Mo Guoer was swept away by the storm! She's going to die, she's going to die......"

Suddenly, Li Lie looked at the empty horse's belly, squatted down, the golden dagger slashed in the air, and the dead horse was cut in half by the sharp blade in the middle, he cut off the flesh in the horse's belly, raised his hand and threw it to the stunned Zhapi, and said in a deep voice: "If you want to go out, eat it." After saying that, he went down with another knife, picked up half of his leg and ate it raw.

Seeing the horse's blood oozing from his mouth from chewing down his jaw to the deep Adam's apple, which was still squirming and squirming, Zapi turned around and vomited.

But he knew he was right, if he wanted to live

Zapi was ruthless, closed his eyes and swallowed the nausea churning in his stomach, and ate the bloody horse meat little by little.

It wasn't until both of them had regained their strength that Hu Lilie tried to put the dagger into the sheath and said, "Let's go, she must still be alive." ”

After a few days of wind and sand, the original footprints have been smoothed, but if you look closely, you can still distinguish a trace of clues from the faint wind and sand. Following the remaining traces, they finally found the woman under the dunes two days later.

Most of Mo Guo'er's body was covered by wind and sand, leaving only half of her arms, half of her belly and legs, and her black hair.

"Mo Guo'er! Mo Guoer! Zapi shouted, and then hurried down the dune, falling to the sand and rolling down before he could gain a foothold. After rolling a few laps, he struggled to get up, threw himself to Mo Guoer's side, and hurriedly peeled off the thick sand covering her.

Suddenly Lilie came to her and stretched out his hand to probe her snort, very weak, not dead yet!

"Put her down!"

As he spoke, he quickly took out the dagger and slashed at his arm, and the blood suddenly spurted out and dripped down his arm into the sand.

He leaned over to block the wind from the north, the bleeding wound aimed at her already dry and peeling lips, allowing his own blood to drip onto her mouth. Drop by drop, blood flowed down her lips.

Seeing that her thin lips were closed and no blood was drunk, she suddenly bowed down, picked her up and supported her head on her lap, and gently pinched her chin with the other hand, pried open her lips, and let the blood flow down her mouth into her body.

"Let's go, I'll carry her first, and go all the way down the south." After confirming that Mo Guo'er's breath was stable, Hu Lilie squatted down and carried her on his back, and walked all the way forward.

After three days and two nights, cold, hunger, thirst, and the erosion and abuse of the wind, they finally saw the grassland ahead.

Zapi cried with joy and shouted loudly, his eyes flashed with a burning light, a carefree teenager, after a few days of ups and downs, has had a lot of vicissitudes.

Hu Lilie hugged Mo Guo'er and walked towards the inn in front of him.

The inn was made of wood, surrounded by high stone steps, and hundreds of colorful streamers fluttered from behind the protruding eaves, moving in the wind.

The wooden doors and sturdy windows are adorned with meter-long beads, made of a unique insect and snake-resistant wood from the Western Regions, and adorned with round black iron beads.

The door was open, the shopkeeper was settling accounts at the counter, and the boys were busy.

When I entered the store, there were several tables of idlers scattered on the round wooden chairs and tables in the hall, all of them were tall and strong, with dark faces, and they just glanced at the three people who came in, and chatted with themselves.

There was only one person, with a delicate face and a handsome expression, who was holding a stoneware bowl and looking at the three people who entered the door.

Zapi walked to the counter and said to the man who bowed his head: "Shopkeeper, we want to stay in the hotel." ”

The shopkeeper was a man, with a bearded face, a square fur hat, a dark gray tiger skin curly white fur garry shirt, a collar turned out, a black girdle tied around the waist, and rough and clumsy fingers, but he was extremely sensitive to fiddling with the beads.

Hearing the voice, he raised his head, the thief's bright little eyes narrowed into a line, and he only looked at the three people opposite, and continued to calculate the account while replying, "It's okay to stay in the hotel, but you have to pay the silver first." ”

This inn does not have a name, but the location is unique. To the south is the Southern Han Dynasty, ruled by the Han Chinese, while to the north is the desert, and on the other side of the desert is the Beidi regime.

The shopkeeper's compound surname is Wan Qian, and the word beggars.

As soon as Wan Qi begged people looked at it, he knew that they had escaped from Beidi. Those who came to him to invest in the store were either traitors of the Southern Han Dynasty or sinners of the Northern Di. He shook his head, only to feel that the three of them couldn't come up with the money. Although his life has passed through the wind and sandstorm, he can't survive without money.

Although he was noble, he had no money.

Zapi was already poor, and there was no silver on him at the moment, and the two men looked at each other, and their eyes showed defeat.

Suddenly, Lilie touched the pulse of the woman in his arms, only to feel that her breath was getting weaker and weaker. He tightened the dagger in his arms and slowly pulled it out. This dagger was handed down to him by the Great Khan of Beidi, and the enchanting jewel set on it was a symbol of the throne.

Hu Lilie hesitated for a moment, and finally put the dagger in front of the shopkeeper who was playing with the beads, and asked, "How much is this worth?" ”
