The land under Tang An's feet is nominally the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but in fact it is equivalent to the buffer zone between the Tang Dynasty and the Xia Kingdom.

Because it is so barren and sparsely populated, few people want to live here, and the further west you go, the more desolate the scene becomes.

At sunset, the cracked yellow earth exudes the residual heat absorbed during the day, and the sunset stains the earth with a red color, adding to the bleak beauty.

"Phew!"

Stopping the carriage, Tang An stood up and looked back, and there was no longer a shadow of Xia Guo's soldiers on the wasteland that could not be seen, so he pulled the car company and lifted Bibi Hu out.

Tang An sank his face and said, "Fatty, let me ask you, how many soldiers and horses have come from your Xia Kingdom, and where are they distributed?" ”

Bibi Hu had a bitter face: "The ghost is a big hero, it's not that Bibi Hu doesn't want to tell you, but I really don't know!" Bibi Hu only received an order for the Hui warriors to occupy Pyeongchang along this line, and then search for the whereabouts of the remnants of Zhan Lingyun, and the rest did not know. ”

"Damn, I see that you don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin!" Tang An picked up the broad knife and made a gesture to cut the goods again.

Bibi Hu screamed in fright, and a series of Xia Guohua popped out of his mouth. Tang An frowned and asked, "What did he say?" ”

Su Mei'er looked disdainful and said, "He is praying for the blessing of the god of the desert." ”

This guy who is greedy for life and afraid of death refuses to open his mouth when he dies, and it seems that he really doesn't know anything.

Tang An sighed, knowing that he would not be able to get more useful information, kicked him, and said, "You can get out." ”

Bibi Hu opened his eyes, looking dazed, as if he didn't believe that Tang An would let him go so easily, and asked timidly, "You... Don't kill Bibi to protect it? ”

"I've always been very principled in doing things, and killing people for no reason doesn't it ruin my reputation as a wonder hero in the Central Plains? - I'm waiting for you to make a mistake. ”

Tang An smiled and said, "If you don't keep your promise, then you have found a reason to kill you." Hey, it seems that there are still 1,000 corpses left, do you want to be the thousandth collector's item? ”

Bibi Hu hurriedly shook his head and swore solemnly: "Don't worry, Bibi Hu will definitely treat the people of the Tang Dynasty well!" ”

"Well, why is it so hard to get one more piece to draw a collection?" Tang An scratched his head and said, "Why don't you get out of here?" ”

"Okay, good, get out of here! Thank you, Ghost See! ”

Nabibi Hu kowtowed and retreated, his face filled with the joy of the rest of his life. As if he was afraid that Tang An would regret it, he ran so fast after quitting three or four meters that people couldn't connect with his fat figure at all.

Mu Rong got out of the carriage, looked at Bibi Hu, who quickly turned into a small black dot, and frowned: "This person killed my people in the Tang Dynasty, why didn't you kill him?" ”

Tang An shook his head and said, "A pig-like opponent is a kind of luck for us. If the Xia Kingdom is full of such straw bales as Bibi protects, then it will be much easier to recover the lost territory when General Peng's army crosses, alas! ”

Sighing softly, Tang An lowered his head with some distress. The ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny. The old general Zhan Lingyun has been crisscrossing the Western Regions for many years, and he is by no means a vain person. Even the commander on his side was defeated and fled, which shows that there are definitely amazing geniuses in the army of Xia Kingdom. If you want to break the current situation, it doesn't seem easy!

Suddenly thinking of something, Tang An raised his head and said, "Miss Mei'er, you just said that you know a guy named Mo Lingtu, who is he?" ”

Su Mei'er didn't hide it, and said: "Mo Lingtu is the most favored son of King Tiele, he is young but talented, and even King Xia respects him very much. The slave family felt that he should be among them when the Xia army was dispatched this time. ”

Tang An nodded, it turned out to be a rich and handsome Xia country. But all this is Su Meier's speculation, and she can't be sure.

Mu Rong looked at the sun that was gradually setting in the west and asked, "What should we do now?" ”

Tang An pondered for a moment and said, "The news of the defeat of the veteran general must be sent. But now we should have fallen into the encirclement of the Xia army, and it is difficult to protect ourselves. In addition, Bibi Hu sent people to search around, and the two of you are first-class beauties, these are all difficult problems. For the sake of today, we have to take the path now. ”

Path? The terrain here is flat and unobstructed, where are the so-called paths?

Tang An covered his forehead and looked around, secretly planning in his heart.

Xia's army has already reached Pyeongchang, and the road to the west will definitely not work. Turning southwest to the Swamp, it seems that the road will definitely not be peaceful. It is really difficult to find the last medicine, but also to release the news of the menacing Xia army, and to dodge the Xia army scattered along the way to find the remnants of Zhan Lingyun's army.

But no matter how hard it is, you can only grit your teeth and go on. It is not easy to go all the way here, it is definitely unrealistic to turn back the same way, and Mu Rong will definitely not give up in order to treat Mu Jingfeng. Tang An sighed, secretly sighing that he was really born with a hard life.

After thinking for a while, Tang An finally made up his mind and said, "Let's go south." ”

"To the south?" Su Mei'er frowned and glanced at Mu Rong with some doubts, as if she was becoming more and more curious about their destination.

"If you say go south, let's go south." Mu Rong didn't have any expression, looked up at the sky, and said, "It's not too early, Mr. Stop." ”

"You can't make a fire." Tang An shook his head, "Just now, you also heard what Bibi Hu said, all the soldiers in Pyeongchang have been sent out, we can't expose the target and add some unnecessary trouble." ”

Su Mei'er's expression darkened, and said: "It's all bad to blame Mei'er, I didn't expect Bibi Hu to dare to beat Mei'er's idea, not only failed to help you, but also harmed everyone to live their days with trepidation, alas." ”

"The matter involves the interests of the country, which cannot be reversed by one or two people, and Miss Mei'er doesn't have to mind." Tang An comforted, "For today's plan, we can only take one step at a time." At the moment, there is not even a shield around, and the troops of the Xia Kingdom are passing by here, and we have nowhere to hide. Let's go south until it gets dark and see if you can find a suitable place to live. ”

The two women have no right to speak at all on such an issue, so they are naturally dominated by Tang An's opinion. Seeing that it was not early, the second daughter obediently got into the carriage.

Just about to enter the carriage, Mu Rong paused and said, "Tang An." ”

"Huh?"

"Thank you."

Mu Rong said with a strange face. With her cold temperament, it is not easy to take the initiative to thank humanity.

Many of the words sound simple, but the meanings contained in them are very complex, just like the three words Mu Rong just said.

A woman who has just entered the rivers and lakes from the Great Snow Mountain, has no relatives, no friends, no way, only a stranger shares secrets with her that she can't mention to anyone. This stranger doesn't owe her anything, but she is willing to come with her step by step in the barren Western Regions without fear of hardship, if it weren't for the fact that her way of expressing her feelings is too limited, I'm afraid she wants to say more than just these three words to Tang An.

Tang An understood what she meant, so he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.

The relationship between him and Mu Rong is difficult to say. If it weren't for Mu Rong, maybe he wouldn't be in danger like he is now, but it is also possible that he will be separated from Liu Tiange forever. Perhaps a small act that was not difficult in Mu Rong's eyes became a great favor in Tang An's eyes.

This kindness is worth his go.

Tang An smiled and took out the remaining two feathers from his arms, which were no longer as white as they used to be, shook them gently, and said, "No thanks, you have already paid the reward." ”

Mu Rong said: "Whether you can find the red spider or not, the reward I give you is valid." ”

"Really?" Tang An grinned and took out a feather and said, "Sister Fairy, my second wish is... Three more wishes. ”

"Okay." Mu Rong said lightly.

Hey, I couldn't have heard it wrong, could I? Tang An blinked and said, "You didn't lie to me, did you?" ”

"I never lie." Murong said, "As long as you can pick me up three times." ”

Tang An: "......"
