Chapter 070: Night in the Desert
Under the scorching sun, a finger-length sand lizard hurriedly crossed the sand dune, and before it had climbed far, there was a sudden burst of sand in the desert, as if something was fluttering, rolling upward, and the next second, with a black shadow flashing, the sand lizard disappeared on the sand dune.
Not far away, a red flame and a few fast horses were running up to the highest point of the sand dune, and several figures stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the people who came were Hantier and others.
"Deputy Commander, based on the footprints I saw earlier, this group of people should have diverted to the east. We ran for dozens of miles within this radius, but we didn't see any trace of them. Not to mention people, there is not even a trace of people swallowing horses. An old mercenary said, in his opinion, even if the group really had their idea before, they would definitely be scared away by their huge momentum along the way, and the wolf killing mercenary group is not something that ordinary sand thieves can afford to provoke.
"Although you are veterans, but don't judge easily, especially in the investigation, you must always be vigilant, pay attention to some clues, and don't let go of a trace because of carelessness, there are still about two days away from the town, even if the other party has left, don't relax your vigilance at the last moment, after you go back, you can report what you see to the regiment commander, as for what to do, it is not for you to consider. Hantier raised his head slightly, narrowing his eyes slightly in the scorching sun.
On the flat and smooth sand dunes, a team of people and horses are galloping, and the tall figure of a red red flame accompanied by it is particularly conspicuous, and a beautiful scenery floats in front of everyone's eyes, bringing a touch of vitality to the boring yellow sand.
Since discovering the footprints that may be the footprints of the sand thief, the high vigilance for several days has made Du Xin'er anxious, and even the red flame fox, who is a mount, seems to sense the unhappiness of his master, and let out a low roar from time to time.
"Xin'er, lift the vigilance, let everyone stop being tense and rest in place for a while. After receiving the good news from Hinterel, Du Lang's instructions finally diluted the nervousness that had been fearing everyone all day.
Du Xin'er also came to her senses, but for some reason, a figure suddenly popped up in her mind, and she didn't know where Wu Wei had arrived now, after all, the red stone was used to hunt down Chiyan and Qiyi, and some were only unilateral inductions.
Du Lang seemed to be aware of Du Xin'er's thoughts, and sighed slightly, could it be that Xin'er's temperament is really not suitable to be the head of the group?
But when I think about it, if my daughter really becomes like herself, how can she not suffer from gains and losses.
It's hard to be a leader, and it's even harder to be a father.
For several days in a row, Du Xin'er's performance in the regiment was remarkable, and she was popular among the new mercenaries, and even many old members of the regiment were impressed by her, but the more this was the case, the more entangled Du Lang was in her heart.
Hantier looked at Du Lang's appearance, but a trace of change flashed on his face, but he didn't say much.
After announcing to the mercenaries in the team that the alert had been lifted, Du Xin'er slowly gathered her divine sense and integrated into the team, after all, it was extremely physically exhausting to maintain a state of opening her divine consciousness at all times.
Among them, the happiest is Tie Ding, who heard that he could rest, and happily pulled out a piece of paper given to him by Wu Wei, and looked at it, and from time to time he was stupidly happy, but it just happened to fall in Du Xin'er's eyes.
Maybe it's because of Wu Wei's incident, the relationship between the two is closer: "What are you looking at, so fascinated?"
Tie Ding didn't raise his head, and said happily: "What Brother Wu gave me." ”
Suddenly, as if he remembered something, Tie Ding's whole body trembled, looked up, and met Du Xin'er's sight, and hurriedly explained: "Big ...... Miss, I was wrong, I shouldn't have deserted. ”
"Now that the alert has been lifted and it's time to rest, it doesn't matter if you relax. Du Xin'er smiled at Tie Ding, which immediately attracted a burst of envy, jealousy and hatred from everyone around.
"Then what did Wu Wei give you to make you look so fascinated?"
"It's what Brother Wu said about the improvement of the crystal weapon. Seeing that Du Xin'er didn't blame, Tie Ding also let go of his thoughts, and his attention continued to return to the paper.
"The transformation method of the Hejing Blade, this is not a difficulty that the technicians in the city have not overcome, just like him, his tone is quite big," Du Xin'er shook her head, then Wu Wei didn't know what ecstasy soup he poured into Tie Ding, and deceived Tie Ding to the ground, one big brother at a time, "You are not afraid that guy will talk about it and break it casually." ”
Hearing this, Tie Ding smiled: "Miss, you don't understand this, don't underestimate Brother Wu, don't look at Brother Wu's young age, but everything he seems to say casually has extremely unique opinions, especially about weapons." My uncle in my hometown is an old mechanic in a factory, and he has been tinkering with a lot of things in recent years, and I have heard him say a lot, but in Wu Viagra, I feel that the angle and depth of the two of them are not at the same level at all, no, Wu Viagra gave me this thing, don't look at it lightly, but once it is put into the factory, to put it mildly, it is enough to raise the weapons we use now to a higher level, and to put it mildly, it is a revolution in the entire forging industry. ”
Hearing that Tie Ding held Wu Wei so high, Du Xin'er frowned: "That person is a cultivator with no power, maybe even the expedition team is made up, he has a sharp mouth, and his subordinates have no work, you haven't seen it, if he is really as capable as you say, he should have followed up in the past few days." ”
"Miss, don't worry about this, I, I believe that Wu Viagra is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface. Tie Ding smiled, not knowing where he got his confidence.
Du Xin'er frowned, hearing that Tie Ding admired Wu Wei so much, she didn't know what to say to persuade him, and then sighed.
"By the way, I remember," Tie Ding suddenly patted his thigh, "Before leaving that night, in order to thank the eldest lady for her kindness, Brother Wu said let me pass on a bag of tips to you, if you encounter any problems, just open it." ”
"He gave me ...... Hearing this, Du Xin'er was slightly stunned, revealing a trace of doubt.
The night of the desert came quickly and quickly, and after a long day of rapid travel, it was night again.
It's just that the atmosphere tonight is much more relaxed than yesterday.
"Let everyone relax, eat when they need to, sleep when they should sleep, and don't need to be too nervous. Du Lang walked among the people, inspiring everyone's morale, and the day after tomorrow he would be able to go to Shacheng, and everyone felt that the burden on their bodies was a lot lighter.
Du Lang knew that the tension that had been in place for several days had made many people's spirits a little nervous, so he even asked his subordinates to cook some meat and send a little wine to let the mercenaries moisten their throats.
Bonfires lit like stars in the night sky, but on the other side, there was a silent dark abyss.
"Boss, when are we going to do it?" A black shadow was a little unbearable, and two pairs of eyes poked out from under the sand, they had been lurking here for a day and a night, this group of sand thieves had such stamina, like poisonous snakes in the desert, they couldn't bear it.
"Wait for the signal of the connector. The face of the man at the head flashed with these dark blue eyes, like a vicious poisonous snake.
"Someone!" someone in front of him suddenly whispered under the yellow sand.
Then, a black shadow flashed in the sand dunes not far away, galloping from far and near.
Seeing the man's face, the man in charge smiled and stood up: "It's okay, it's my own person." ”
The people came very quickly, and after a while, they arrived in front of them.
"Helper, when I came to deliver the news and started it, it was today. The figure arched his hand and whispered.
"It's time to calculate, but why didn't we go according to plan that day, and we missed the opportunity? The man known as the gang leader asked in a low voice.
When the visitor heard this, he knew what the man was talking about: "That night, we found an oriental man in the cave on the side of the stone mountain, under the unclear situation, it is really not suitable to do it, and the lone wolf is still worried that the young gang master has temporarily changed his plan and sent a fine work over?"
"Is the man a master?" asked the tall shadow in a low voice.
"No, it must be an ordinary person, like a shipwrecked explorer, but luckily the man was chased away by us. ”
But a shipwrecked explorer, the lone wolf is too cautious.
The man in black smiled disapprerovingly, and in the moonlight, a bloody scar appeared on his hideous face: "If I catch that explorer, I will let him taste the poisonous snakes of the desert, and I will be on fire for my men who have been hiding in the sand for a day and a night." ”
Under the starry night, Wu Wei was still walking slowly on the road, suddenly his body stiffened, frowned, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Woohoo woo. Chai Chai muttered lazily.
"You're asking why I didn't just deal with those people?"
"Woohoo!"
"I, an outsider, rashly pointed out the traitor, which is naturally unreasonable. Eradicating the domestic chores of the mole is handed over to them, and it can be regarded as repaying the kindness of the eldest lady of the Du family. ”
"Woohoo woo. ”
"It's normal if you don't understand, you're not a human being, you, as long as you cultivate well, and when you grow bigger and bigger in the future, you can teach that Feng Lingxiao a hard lesson and avenge your parents. ”
"Woohoo woo. Chai Chai nodded very seriously, and those lazy eyes became extremely sharp.
