Looking up, there was a white curtain hanging in the westernmost part of the sky, and there were faint golden clouds. It is at dusk that the stars begin to weave a large expanse of blue sky, from light to deep.

The setting sun illuminates the rippling waters of the river, blurring the shadows of olive trees, dwarf berry trees, stone piles and animals, and the atmosphere on the oasis gradually falls silent and peaceful.

The horned antelope stood quietly on the shallow water, bending its neck to drink, and its neighbor, the jackal, stood on a large rock and peeked vigilantly.

Exhausted, it could not move forward, and finally began to drink the warm water of the river to satisfy its hunger.

Not far away, outside a leaky house with only bare loess walls, invaded by sandstorms, there were bonfires with red and yellow flames flickering in this quiet land.

"Yawn—don't be lazy, you'd better hurry." The last sound was uttered by Yanxi as she exhaled. With a tired body, groggy and wanted to sleep.

"Goo~Goo~" (belly)

"I'm so hungry." Her vague figure sat cross-legged on a large rock, smelling the wind, which smelled of sand and dust in her face.

"Got it, got it." Besko replied impatiently. With a bitter face, he snatched a whole jackal onto a long tree pole, then set up a rack and set it on a fire to roast.

At first, the pole I was looking for was too short, and I was very careless when I was roasting the fire, so that it took a long time for Bezi to find a long one again.

The flames swayed upward, and the back of the roasted jackal began to burn and emit a spicy scent.

"It's going to be baked right away, Titicaca, Titicaca! Choke me...... ...... Titicaca"

The black smoke choked Bezi turned his head and coughed several times, he took off his glasses, pinched his eyes with his little finger, and glanced back at Yanxi with a fluke mentality.

"You sit down for me." Yanxi twisted her head back, she looked at Bezi's hazy face under the fire, and told him in a low voice.

"What—what did you say, eldest sister?"

"I'm asking you something. You sit up right for me, do you hear me? She suddenly got up and jumped down from the stone, and she shuffled back and said this.

Besko saw her trance-like walking. Then put his glasses back on and smiled slyly. "Eldest sister, hehehehe, just ask."

Yanxi sat by the fire with her legs crossed, her eyes looking at the jackal longingly, her fingers gently brushing her sloppy long hair.

She retorted at Beizi in a blink of an eye, and said in a deep voice: "Hey, don't call me eldest sister, okay?" You see my skin is so good, so white - do you think I'm not beautiful? Yes? ”

Beszi rolled her eyes and giggled. He replied with a clear conscience: "Bleach, bright." ”

"What should I be called? Say it! Yanxi's face smiled dumbly.

"Since it's not okay to call the eldest sister...... Then it's called, little, sister. ”

Don't Zi took these words out of her mouth with difficulty, because no matter how she looked at them, she didn't deserve to be called these words, and it was almost the same as being called a "female madman".

"That's right—" Yanxi smirked at him. "Eh, let me ask you, hurry up and tell me what this place is called, huh?"

She didn't bother to talk to her son any longer, so she went straight to the point and began to ask.

"What?" Besko picked at her ears.

"Deaf?!" She suddenly raised her voice, so frightened that the flames shook away.

"Nope! Miss. No, you don't even know where you are? It's a desert, the ruins of the old sandstone city of Lotinnea. ”

"I-listen-no-understand."

"Oops, it's 'Sandstone City.'" Don't have to say it simply.

"Oh, that's right." Yanxi licked the corners of her dry lips, she took a sip of cool air, and looked up at the beautiful night sky woven by the stars.

"That's right, that's right." Don't turn his head, he looked at his surroundings nervously, after all, he still couldn't wait for his subordinates, he had to sigh quietly.

"Hee-hee-hee, but then again," Bezi struck up as she struck up a conversation to dissipate the boredom in the air. He asked, "Miss, where did you come from, and how did you end up in this deserted place?" ”

Yanxi played with the Desert Eye in the palm of her hand, and it was very important to grab it. She blinked, her lips twitching for a long time to spit out an answer.

"Miss? Forget it, don't ask my grandmother's, lest you beat me up later......"

"From, it's probably a long way away, right? I thought about it and forgot. Hey, it seems to be the Laimi Plain - no, no, no, I won't go to Laimi! I won't in this life, I won't ......"

Yanxi hugged her arms around her thighs, and her fingers tightly pulled the corners of her pants.

A dry branch burning in the fire snapped, making the flame burn even more vigorously.

Bezi spat on the ground, raised his head and continued to listen and watch Yanxi talking to himself, his eyes shaking back and forth.

"It's okay, it's okay. This is not Laimi, it is a sandstone city. Bezi answered quickly.

"Aang." Yanxi suddenly stopped talking. She hung her head sadly, her eyes hollow, and she looked at the ground that was in a trance that was stirred by the flames.

"That'...... Miss, you've come all the way here......"

"Shut up."

"What?"

"Shut up! Now I don't want you to ask me that question. Yanxi suddenly yelled at him angrily.

This frightened Bezi into a daze, and his half-open lips had to be closed obediently.

But Bezi is still impetuous and restless in his heart. He couldn't help it, and jumped like this scurrying flame. So, he took a deep breath and tentatively opened his mouth again and asked:

"That, Titicaca...... This bead ......"

"What's wrong with this bead? Yes? Yeon-hee's voice went from low to high, almost jumping.

"What the hell do you want it for, miss?" Bezi asked her knowingly. As a result, before he finished speaking, he couldn't hold back an embarrassed laugh.

"I'm telling you - don't try to hit it! It belongs to me, mine! It's mine! Yanxi replied impatiently in the tone he had said before, and solemnly emphasized "mine" three times.

This embarrassed Besko, and he blinked his eyes, and the embarrassed smile on his face froze.

Yanxi held the Desert Eye in her arms like a baby who had just completed the moon. She rolled her eyes and stared at Beko cautiously and unfamiliarly, anger burning violently from her pupils.

"Good, good...... It's yours and it's yours! Miss, you calm down, it's yours, yes, you, their......"

It seems that Bezi can't trick the Desert Eye back in a cliché. Because the mood of the woman in front of him was good and bad, and she was very unstable, which brought him very serious difficulties.

It was as if she had been stimulated by something, causing her to look normal for a while, and then to feel crazy.

This made Besko feel a little pitiful for her.

However, she snatched what belonged to the Sand Scorpion Order. It stands to reason that Yanxi has become an enemy of their sand scorpion organization.
