"Big brother, let's rest here for a while!"

A leeward slope, Liu Yujue said to Xia Xun.

Xia Xun nodded his head, and the knife in his hand was thrown on the sand with a clatter, and he walked to the high place of the sand slope with difficulty, raising his eyes and looking into the distance.

This area is even more desolate, there is not even snow, at a glance, there is a piece of yellow sand, undulating yellow sand stretches for thousands of miles, Xia Xun knows that they have now arrived in the heart of the desert, and their mood can't help but be heavier.

He no longer had to judge the purpose of the target by the sunset in the west, and he knew a few days ago that he had deviated from the purpose of the target. Now he is fleeing all the way down along the purpose of the southwest mark, the pursuers are too tight, the first few days of the detour to the northwest target of the purpose to Hami, even met Timur's cavalry in front, and then was chased more and more tightly, can no longer take care of anything else, just to be able to free the pursuers first.

"The enemy is always chasing!"

Xia Xun muttered to himself, his eyes fell on the sand where the two of them passed, where there were two lines of shallow camel footprints, the footprints were originally relatively deep, but with the howling wind, it is now becoming lighter little by little, I believe that it only takes a while to make it disappear completely.

Now that the sky is about to get dark, compared to the night, after a night of wind blowing, not to mention the traces of two people, the traces of one hundred and ten people will disappear without a trace, what is the pursuer relying on, has been accurately capturing his traces?

Xia Xun has always been suspicious of this, I don't want to understand this, Baidu Jinyi Night Walking Post Bar Huangmen Neipin provides error-free text to make a way to deal with it, he believes that sooner or later he will be chased by the enemy, by that time, maybe the two of them have escaped and don't even have the strength to struggle, so they can only obediently tie their hands.

He had never thought of hunting dogs before, because there were too few people who used hunting dogs at that time, especially when he was crossing the Hanhai, a cavalry infantry team wanted to kill from afar, directly intercept the Hanhai, find his whereabouts, and then carry out the robbery, this is too difficult, in the long-range attack, there will be hunting dogs, this kind of thing is really unimaginable.

In fact, it is not that the Ming army did not use hunting dogs, even when he fought with the steppe nomadic tribes in the north, he never saw them use hunting dogs on the battlefield. Therefore, Xia Xun inevitably made the mistake of empiricism, but he was accurately found by the pursuers again and again, and it was difficult to get rid of it even if he tried his best, and he had already thought of this possibility, because otherwise it was impossible to explain the shrewdness of the enemy soldiers.

He didn't know the unpleasant smell of the two camels, it was better when the camels ran forward, and when they stopped, or when they were leeward, the smell was really unbearable, and he and Liu Yujue had to cover their faces with a face towel, which not only blocked the cold wind and sand, but also filtered the smell. Although it is difficult to sniff out such a strong smell by a human nose wherever it passes, it is not difficult for a dog's nose to sniff out.

Xia Xun had already thought of this possibility, but it was useless to think of it, could he abandon these two camels? In this endless desert, when will the two of them get out with their legs? If you lose your camel here, it's better to kill yourself right away.

Xia Xun sighed helplessly.

Under the sand slope, Liu Yujue let the two camels snuggle down, and first took out some camel food and drinking water from the untied package.

Then he took out two frozen food boxes and touched the frozen simple food, Liu Yujue hesitated, but still took out a bag of drinking water and poured the water into the special food box, and the water in the food box immediately rolled up, and white smoke came out.

This is an easy-to-carry food created by Xia Xun before leaving Dunhuang, considering that 3,000 people eat horses and feed them and consume too much. With the help of the current cold of dripping into ice, various foods such as cooked meat and rice are made into food boxes, and the inner layer of food is wrapped in tin foil, and some lime is placed on the outer layer, and if you pour some water into it, the quicklime will quickly heat the water, thus having the effect of heating the rice.

If the temperature of this lime water works for a long time, it can even cook eggs, so it is easy to heat up a meal.

Liu Yujue only warmed a box of lunch, and then cherished the water bag and stuffed it, they didn't know how long they had to run, and now they had entered the real desert, he didn't dare to waste it too much.

Liu Yujue greeted Xia Xun who was walking down the hill with a steaming boxed lunch: "Big brother, eat some tools, and rest again!" ”

"Good!"

Xia Xun took the lunch box, his tentacles were warm, his brows couldn't help frowning, and he said to Liu Yujue: "Next time, we won't have to heat the rice anymore, let's eat it cold, this is a big desert, it's hard to predict when you can go out, drinking water must be saved!" Right now, I just want to be able to live, but I can't be squeamish! ”

"Yes! I know! ”

Liu Yujue promised, Xia Xun sat down on the sand, sighed and said, "You also eat tools, rest more, the road is still long!" ”

"Hmm!"

Liu Yujue answered again, walked back and picked up a box of lunches, walked to the other side of the two camels, and ate tools with his back to him.

Xia Xun was originally waiting for him to come over for dinner together, but when he saw his actions, he was stunned at first, and then shook his head with a smile: "This Yujue, don't you just say two words about you, why are you still angry like a big girl, I still don't have good intentions?" Alas! What is a young master, how do you know the hardships of hunger and cold! Our brothers' next road is getting worse and worse! ”

The sky is slightly dark, and the fish belly has appeared white in the east.

Next to the dune, there seems to be a crouching humanoid stone, quietly placed there.

Suddenly, the "stone" moved, he raised his eyes to see the white light that appeared slightly in the sky, relaxed the old sheepskin jacket that he was holding tightly, stood up and moved his body a few times, this "stone" was Liu Yujue.

In the past few days in the escape, they have lost a set of bedding, plus the pursuers are getting more and more anxious, and they are getting more and more tired, once they fall asleep, they often like dead pigs, and they can't wake up with a little wind and grass, which is very dangerous, because sometimes the pursuers will chase them overnight, and the two people will change to one person to keep vigil and one person to sleep, and then change people when the hour comes.

Liu Yujue turned his head to look at the tightly covered wolfskin sleeping bag under the slope, and sighed softly.

The few days of running away in the desert were a sin he had never suffered in his life. He was originally a son, rich clothes and food, even if the family fell later, but he never suffered anything, if the hardships over the years are only the experience of the mood, the material and physical encounter of such a sinister environment, this is the first time.

But because of Brother Yang, who accompanied him, Liu Yujue actually didn't feel his suffering.

When Xia Xun looked around and saw the vastness and boundlessness of the four fields, with his strong will, he couldn't help but feel a feeling of discouragement and frustration, but in this regard, Liu Yujue was much stronger than him. Liu Yujue doesn't have this kind of cognition, there is only one Xia Xun in his eyes, no matter how big the world is, no matter how vast the desert is, he doesn't see it in his eyes, he only sees Xia Xun alone, and Xia Xun is by his side.

Although the days of escape are bitter, but his heart is very quiet, this kind of peace of mind and satisfaction, in fact, is not affected by the despicability of the environment, on the contrary, can watch over the most important person in his mind, and luckily, only the two of them, in his opinion, the ups and downs along the way are all sweet, all the way to the sword and sword shadow have become wind and snow!

He really wanted Xia Xun to sleep a little longer, he knew that Xia Xun was actually not easier than him, and last night Xia Xun deliberately kept watch for more than half an hour before waking him up to take over, but the sky was already dark, and the crisis could come again at any time, according to the time of Xia Xun's advice, he had to be called up at this time, otherwise it would inevitably make the eldest brother angry.

Liu Yujue took a breath and was about to walk towards the bottom of the slope, when his expression suddenly changed, as if he saw some tool.

Liu Yujue squinted his eyes and looked into the distance vigilantly, sure enough, it was a living creature, looking from a distance, it looked like a sand fox, or some other desert animal?

However, ......, the animal ran closer and closer, although the long hair-like hair looked a little strange, not in line with the dogs seen in the Central Plains, but ...... It's really like a dog.

That is an Afghan hound, elegant body, long limbs, so that it can indulge in the desert gallop, originally as a desert wild dog breed of it, is the sand fox, gerbil and other alert and flexible, agile desert creatures for food, its speed can be imagined, when it gallops with all its might, much faster than a horse, that is, after being successfully trained, when capturing prey, it often leaves the owner of the horse far behind, catches up and fights with the prey alone.

It can gallop in deserts, hills, rocky and other despicable environments, and its ability to withstand cold and heat is extremely strong, and its extraordinary survivability is a hundred times more intelligent than its beautiful appearance.

It sniffed the smell and ran all the way, and when Liu Yujue saw it, it obviously saw Liu Yujue as well. It held its head high, and a pair of golden eyes stared at Liu Yujue, Liu Yujue looked at its strange face, and felt like a person who was falling into thought. The pricked up ear shuddered in alarm, and it suddenly turned around and ran away like an arrow.

There is danger!

A chill hit Liu Yujue's whole body, and he suddenly felt the danger, he didn't have a bow, because although his martial arts were high, his archery skills were actually not safe, and the same was true for Xia Xun, so they didn't carry a bow at all, even if they did, looking at the speed of the strange dog, Liu Yujue was also very worried about whether he could shoot it.

"Big brother, get up quickly, it's dangerous!"

Liu Yujue staggered down the sand slope, screaming loudly, Xia Xun's head suddenly popped out of his sleeping bag, and he just woke up, only blinking twice, and then regained his clarity and alertness.

"Big brother, hurry! The enemy has caught up! ”

Liu Yujue shouted in panic, Xia Xun jumped out of the sleeping bag as soon as he jumped up, and just with the knife in his hand, a team of cavalry seemed to break out of the netherworld, appearing on the sandy slope like a water wave line in front of him, and the horses' hooves with a big bowl mouth kicked the golden sand!
