Pleasuring the body and mind is conducive to improving combat effectiveness, and Liu Sanbian has a closer relationship with patrol officers. As soon as the day dawned, all the generals were actively preparing to set off.

Before leaving, the soldiers took the initiative to ask to sing the two new words of Liu Sanchang, facing the vast prairie, when the border patrol soldiers sang "Wanghai Tide", another scene appeared in front of them.

There seems to be less magnificence in the song, more tenderness and sweetness, less hysterical hustle and bustle, and more tranquility in the breeze, but similarly, there is a burst of microwaves in the heart, frost and snow mixed with greenery, the same extends to distant places, the same evokes distant thoughts, and the same ripples with pride and passion.

The border patrol soldiers sang the sonorous battle song "Nanxiangzi", and the mounts seemed to be infected by their masters and comrades, and they snorted one after another, expressing their resolute inner world.

Running all the way, the sand and dust were getting higher and higher, and the greenery was gradually receding, and suddenly, Liu Sanbian pointed to the sand waves in the long yellow sand and exclaimed: "Look, what is that?" ”

When the border patrol soldiers saw it, they all smiled at Liu Sanbian and said, "There is no need to make a fuss about common things!" ”

"It's a snake swimming in a sea of sand, twisting and turning." After Liu San's transformation, Liu Jinlong reminded, "However, you must avoid them, and don't walk in front of them and become the target of attack, they are powerful!" ”

"Is it very toxic?" Liu Sanbian asked.

Ke's aide in front of him replied, "The convention is that the farther away from the water, the more poisonous the snake is. ”

When Liu Sanbian heard this, he became alert, and seemed to feel a threat, and goosebumps all over his body.

"It's nothing?" Liu Jinlong continued to tell Liu Sanbian, "If you see a place where this snake has disappeared, especially near a water source or a place where vegetation is concentrated, don't go close. ”

"Yes!" Ke's staff turned back to Liu San and said, "This is mostly a snake nest, stepping into it is like embracing a bee's nest!" ”

Liu Sanbian unconsciously pinched the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse snorted, still following the team.

Hey, this sea of sand doesn't look comfortable, the yellow in the eyes is as uncomfortable as if it is directly stuffed into the eyes, when you can enjoy the sand waves rolling forward, it is broken, the whole body feels uncomfortable, sweating a little, the sand particles stick to the body, and it is jokingly called a sand bath by the border patrol soldiers, but it is uncomfortable.

Liu Sanbian's nerves are highly tense, and when he finds green, he is associated with the snakes, and he has to be vigilant from time to time to become the target of the snakes. He's not as comfortable and relaxed as everyone else.

Liu Sanyan looked at the strange scene in the distance, the sand mountain rolled forward like a wave, and the speed was surprisingly fast. Ke staff looked at the direction of Liu Sanchang's finger, and he said to Liu Sanchang: "Be careful, be vigilant!" ”

Will there be any dangers? Liu Sanbian asked.

Liu Jinlong replied, the sand mountain is much higher than a person riding on a horse, once encountered, it may be buried alive, this is also the most likely to get lost in the desert, you think, just pass by, remember that there is a sand mountain here, when you come back, the sand mountain is moved, disappear without a trace, completely subvert your memory, your location judgment is also impossible.

Liu Sanbian felt the pressure he had before, and he also realized the danger of existence.

The group on patrol did not have the excitement they had when they first set off, and everyone remained silent and ready to deal with emergencies at any time. Fortunately, the danger finally did not appear, and when they came to a high post, Ke's staff asked everyone to rest and rest, quench their thirst, and replenish their energy.

Somehow, Liu Sanbian felt the change in the mood of the soldiers, and everyone suddenly became much more optimistic and cheerful, talked more, and some even joked.

After Liu Sanbian inquired, he learned that more than half of the task of patrolling the border had been completed. This is not the distance, but the dangerous journey, the most dangerous part of the moving sand sea just now has passed, which means that the threat signal from nature has basically been lifted.

Relaxed, Liu Sanbian asked Ke's staff: "What is the most dangerous thing you have heard?" ”

Staff Ke told the following incredible story with great interest.

This was an incident that happened three years ago, and it was experienced by Ke's staff members themselves. At that time, the prefect of Yanzhou discussed with the top commander of the border guards how to implement the emperor's will and escort a group of extraterritorial expeditions through this vast desert.

"Isn't the supreme commander Fan Lushuang?" Liu Sanbian asked.

"It's not!" Ke's staff replied, "Back then, he didn't have a good science expedition!" ”

Ke's staff recalled that he himself led the expedition through as a staff member. Just like our itinerary, we also came here. It was just that I was not lucky at all, and when I set off in the morning, the sky was still clear and the grass was green, so it must have been a good start.

However, not far from the junction of the grassland and the desert, the sand waves rolled up, obscuring the sky and the sun, and the sand particles hit people's faces and bodies in large pieces, as if they were attacked by countless ants after being smeared with honey.

Liu Sanbian, who was a little convulsive, asked, "Can't you find a place to hide?" ”

Where to find a place to hide, Ke's staff said that there was no way, so he had to borrow the body of a horse to form a temporary shelter, blocking it, and it would not solve any problems at all.

Liu Jinlong said that at that time, Chief Ke Jian yì retreated, and the foreigners of the expedition team disagreed, saying that they were short of time and could not afford to delay.

"You also participated?" Liu Sanbian asked Liu Jinlong, and got Liu Jinlong's nod of affirmation.

I quarreled with them, and the quarrel was very serious, Ke said, I said, our soldiers do not need to accompany you to play with their lives, it is not worth it, and besides, this kind of risk is meaningless.

"You fools!" Liu Jinlong said with a smile, "Of course, Chief Ke can be described as angry, he jumped and scolded, if you want to lose your life, no one will stop you, don't you know the length of half your life and a half meeting, a group of idiots!" ”

Ke's staff hated Liu Jinlong and said, no way, those fools forced the guide to lead the way, broke in, and made us miserable, walking into the sea of sand, the sand mountain moved faster than people expected, as if it was a joke, the sand buried half of the people and horses, and it seemed to leave a pair of eyes to identify the direction, but no matter how desperately you went out, a sand mountain was removed in front, followed by a sand mountain, and the sand mountain moved for a long time, trapping people in where.

"It was so dangerous!" Liu Jinlong said, "No one would have thought that they would be able to pick up a life and be killed by this group of foreign hairs!" ”

The guide is still a human, and he can't find the north, where to find the way? Ke staff said, finally found a clump of camel thorns, the guide excitedly pointed and shouted, the desperate people have hope for life again, everyone walked in the direction of the guide of the camel thorns, and the more they walked, the more hopeful they became.

"However, the more I go, the more disappointing it becomes!" Liu Jinlong continued, "When I walked to the sky and found that there was no shore in front of me, and there was no shore when I turned back, I was completely desperate. ”

Common sense tells people that the plants in the desert have the role of guiding the direction, but as everyone knows, this camel thorn is moved by the wind and sand, it just changes the direction, and the wrong direction is judged, the farther away from the edge, how can it be possible!

Liu Sanbian asked: "Isn't it dangerous to spend the night in the desert, what about the attack of snakes or something?" ”

"What is so terrible about snakes, biting to death and burying them alive, both horizontally and vertically, are one death!" Liu Jinlong's expression was stern, "Overnight in the desert, the temperature difference of dozens of degrees, the cold will be cold to death!" ”

Fortunately, the wind and sand stopped, and people rushed desperately and finally walked out. While everyone was rejoicing, the fools regretted that they hadn't looked into anything.

"Adventures are here!" Liu Sanbian smiled and said, "It's a blessing to pick up a life, people can't be too greedy!" ”
