Since they hit Dunhuang, they have not encountered a caravan of caravans passing by along the way.

Before Scar and the guide decided to set up camp in this poplar forest, they also carefully checked and made sure that there were no outsiders here, and then they stopped and rested here.

But this time, the winter solstice said, someone mixed in!

Xie Shuning got up from Song's arms, dressed in a thick bear skin, frowned and asked in a low voice, "How did you find out?" ”

Because of panic, she spoke quickly, and as she spoke, she asked Gui's mother and a few people to sit by the campfire with Song, and easily not to move.

"Uncle Knife's men were patrolling the edge when they found smoothed sand." Dong Solstice didn't dare to raise his voice, and replied nervously.

Xie Shuning's brows furrowed more and more when she heard this, she gathered the big on her body, and hesitated: "It is recorded in the book that there is a big-eared fox-like animal in the desert, and when walking, it likes to sweep away the footprints one by one with its long tail, will it just encounter this kind of fox?" ”

According to the winter solstice, what the person with the scar found was only the sand with the traces of smoothing, but did not see the footprints with his own eyes.

The winter solstice said, "Be careful." ”

In the wilderness, if there are really living people mixed in with the camel carath, it will not be good.

Under the cover of the bonfire, Xie Shuning's pale face showed a little ruddy, she nodded, and ordered the winter solstice: "You go and call Tulan." ”

Turan was the maid that Song Yanzhao specially prepared for her when they left Dunhuang.

The Yuzi, Liuhuang and the few people around her, although they are all loyal enough to their duties, and they are not lacking in care and prudence, but in the end, they are all weak women, and if something really happens, none of them are useless.

So, long after she was injured at the celebration. Song Yanzhao has already begun to find a suitable candidate for her.

Turan was fifteen years old, tall and much stronger than a boy of his age.

Perhaps because of this, her face also lacks the softness that an ordinary girl should have, but has more heroic masculinity.

"Miss." The winter solstice soon brought Turan with him.

Turan speaks Western Vietnamese fluently, and the only fly in the ointment is that she speaks in a manly tone.

Therefore, Yuzi and Liu Huang are reluctant to approach her.

Turan himself understood, so the bonfire was lit. So she ran to rest with the camels.

Xie Shuning liked her very much, Turan stood in front of her, a head and a half taller than her, and she had to look up to see Turan's sight. Turan spontaneously bowed down in front of her, half-kneeling on the ground.

"Turan. From now on, you will follow me every step of the way. Xie Shuning said. He turned his head to look at the winter solstice. "As for the winter solstice, you can follow your mother, and then go to the same scar to ask two people to guard together."

The winter solstice answered and retreated.

"Aman, what are you going to do?" Song was nervous. Reaching out and tugging at her, "Although Turan is with you, how can you walk around at this time!" ”

Knowing the daughter Mo Ruomu, Xie Shuning's words were finished. Song reacted.

Turan's kung fu is very good, and it will never be a problem to knock down a few big men with his bare hands with the power of one person.

But Rao is like this, and the Song family still can't rest assured.

Xie Shuning sighed helplessly in her heart, sat down beside her again, leaned on her shoulder and whispered, "Don't worry, mother, Aman won't go anywhere." ”

Anyway, there's no news from Scar's side yet.

This poplar forest is not big, because of the fear that the Song mother and daughter are from the West Yue, and most of the camel teams are men, so when they camp at night, they are divided into two groups.

The swordsmen were on the other side, separated by a huge fire.

The sky above the poplar forest was slightly red, but the light below was still dim.

Xie Shuning accompanied the Song family, looking beyond the fire to the other side, but could only see a group of people going back and forth.

Fang Cai Scar deliberately shouted loudly, and in the poplar forest, where the place was limited, the question was spread all over in an instant. All of a sudden, it became more and more difficult for the people who got in to escape, and it must be hiding in a corner somewhere.

Time passed slowly, and the dead branches burning in the campfire gradually disappeared.

Silently, Turan snapped a handful of dry poplar branches and threw them into the fire.

Xie Shuning pursed her lips and listened to the movement on Scar's side with bated breath.

No one dares to close their eyes and sleep.

"Whew-"

In the watery moonlight, there was a sudden high wolf howl.

Immediately, there were long "whining" sounds one after another, and they were heard far away in the silent and empty desert.

Mother Gui and Yuzi were all very timid, and when they heard this sound, they gathered together in a cowering place, and their eyes didn't dare to look at anything except the bonfire in front of them.

Turan was unexpectedly excited.

- She is a child who grew up with wolves, and her temperament is like that of a wolf.

At this moment, Scar suddenly burst out with a loud shout, "Damn, you still want to run, Lao Tzu see where you are running!" ”

There was a commotion in the poplar forest.

Xie Shuning stood up suddenly, bluffed Song, and asked repeatedly: "Aman, you are not allowed to go!" ”

"My daughter won't go." Xie Shuning didn't take a step. Once the person is caught, Scar will inevitably escort the person to this side. They are the masters, and Scars can't make their own decisions.

Sure enough, it only took a moment for Scar to come with a group of people at a brisk pace.

Song also stood up straight, half-protected Xie Shuning behind him, and whispered, "If there is anything, my mother is in charge, don't interfere." However, as she spoke, her own palms were clearly sweating, and the palms held by the mother and daughter were sweaty and sticky.

Xie Shuning did not expose the panic in her heart.

She knew that her mother was just doing everything she could to protect her.

Therefore, she just stood quietly behind her mother and held her mother's hand tightly with her backhand.

But her gaze didn't leave for a moment the Scar group in front of her who was getting closer and closer.

Soon, they got closer.

The crowd dispersed, and one of the accompanying swordsmen shoved and shoved the two strangers to the campfire.

The two ragged bodies fell to the ground with a "bang", splashing dust on the ground.

Scar solemnly faced Xie Shuning and said, "Mrs., Miss, it's these two dogs who got in!" ”

Xie Shuning did not speak.

There are only two people, and then look at the embarrassed appearance of the two of them. Not like a thief roaming the desert.

But if it's not a thief, what do you want to do if you sneak into their ranks?

If it was just a simple traveler, after discovering that a group of them had set up camp in the poplar forest, they should not sneak in quietly, but appear openly, greet them and take the place to spend the night.

Sneaky and not a good person.

"Can you be interrogated?" Song coughed twice and asked.

As he spoke, a lizard sprang out from under the sand and whirled around the campfire. Suddenly, he had scurried to the two men on the ground, and was about to burrow into the clothes of one of them.

In the Gobi Desert, travelers often die in distress, and when the wind and sand pass, the exposed corpses are quickly devoured by all kinds of animals. And not strong enough lizards. After that, they hovered over the corpses, searching for the debris.

This desert lizard. It's bloodthirsty.

A man who lies on the ground like a dead body. The moment the lizard got into its clothes, it jumped up, and it seemed that it only took a moment to tear the lizard to pieces with its bare hands.

Song exclaimed in surprise, don't look away.

Xie Shuning stared at the man's face.

It was covered with yellow sand, his face was blurry, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

Scar kicked the man back. Sneered roughly, "Stinky boy, you still want to run?" ”

Hearing the three words of stinky boy, Xie Shuning was shocked. The two people in front of them are indeed not very old.

This makes things even stranger.

Why did two young teenagers appear in the desert?

Even if it is a local, few people dare to go on the road like this.

"Say! Where did you come from? Why get involved! Scar stomped on the boy's back and asked in a rough voice.

When Xie Shuning heard this, he quietly took a half step back, motioned to Turan, who was following behind him, to bow his head, and said to her almost in a whisper: "Go and see if there are any other traces when they came." ”

Turan nodded, and cautiously stepped back.

The man who was trampled under the scar was still silent.

Scar was furious, pulled out his scimitar and put it against his neck, "Don't say it! ”

A group of people who are always coming and going in this desert seem to be surprised by such a scene, but the Song family is so frightened that they don't even dare to come out, and the Song family directly hugged Xie Shuning in his arms.

However, just when everyone thought that the man must have died under the scar, another body on the edge of the fire moved, and shouted in a weak voice, "Seventh brother......"

Scar's scimitar stopped.

Xie Shuning poked out half of his head from Song's arms and followed the prestige.

What the man shouted just now was in Western Vietnamese!

Everyone present was stunned.

"From the West?" Scar frowned, but the knife was not withdrawn.

"Ahem...... cough ......" The young man who had just spoken out coughed heavily, turned over and sat up, "Uncle, we are just passing by......"

Scar scoffed, "Passing by? ”

"Eleven!" The man who was trampled under Scar suddenly scolded.

The scene suddenly became weird.

"It's really just a passing by, uncle...... "It was easy to stop coughing, and the young man's voice suddenly cried, "My brother and I went back from Dashi with the goods to the big food, and there was a storm on the way, and everyone died......"

Three days ago, there was indeed a storm.

The guide sent by Song Yanzhao was proficient in the direction of the wind, so he specially avoided it before taking them on the road.

"Aman, are they from Xiyue?" When Song heard this, his expression relaxed inexplicably.

Xie Shuning was suspicious, he didn't dare to believe it easily, and he didn't hear Song's low voice in contemplation.

"Aman?" Song raised his voice and called again.

Xie Shuning was stunned, "What's the matter, mother?" ”

Hearing the conversation between the mother and daughter, the voice of the young man who was crying over there paused, and after a while he continued, "Originally, there was still a camel, but yesterday my brother and I were too thirsty and tired, so we had to ...... Later, I finally found this poplar forest and found you, my brother and I just wanted to steal some dry food and water...... Uncle, we know it's wrong, you can let us go......" (To be continued......
