Chapter 198: Horse Bandits (1)
Mobile reading
If they don't recover the lost camels, they'll be handed over to the Tagan Desert.
"Who would do such a thing? Nothing to steal camels? Ning Yi touched the coil on his body, no less at all, and the small burden he held in his hand was still there, which was enough to prove that the camel thieves were not interested in this, and all they wanted was camels.
But who is full to steal camels?
"Local horse bandits. They were not able to fight hard, so they often took advantage of the fact that the merchants were asleep to secretly lead the camels away. The Tagan Desert is so big, without water and food, they often don't last more than three days, and when the merchants and guests come and go to death with thirst or starvation, the horse bandits will come again and take away the silver and other valuables, which is the favorite thing for the horse bandits in the Tagan Desert to do. When Wang Rui said this, he sighed heavily and said, "It seems that we are being targeted by horse bandits." ”
"Waiting for work, this group of horse bandits is quite intelligent." The first time Emperor Xi heard that there were horse bandits doing this, he couldn't help but praise his opponent.
"People always have more brains as they live. Qin Wen's herdsmen occasionally went into the desert to fight the autumn wind, and of course the horse bandits became more and more sophisticated. Wang Rui led everyone step by step forward, raised his head from time to time to look at the sun, and his tone was slightly anxious: "The desert is most afraid of lack of water, and when the sun rises for another hour, the desert will be so hot that people sweat, we must find the gathering place of the group of horse bandits as soon as possible." ”
"Hey, you've been around here all year round, don't you know where the horse bandits are?" Emperor Xi saw that Wang Rui was also familiar with the desert, and he should be a character who often traveled to and from the Tagan Desert, but looking at his appearance, it seemed that he really didn't know much about the location of the horse bandits.
Wang Rui smiled bitterly and said: "The horse bandits will change places to live every month, and the Tagan Desert is so big, where to find it." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly sighed, "Oh no, the camel's footprints are gone." ”
Emperor Xi and the others looked down, and in the vast desert, the footprints of the five camels were getting shallower and shallower, and about a hundred meters in front of them, the footprints disappeared completely.
Wang Rui squatted on the desert, looked at the yellow sand on the ground, and sighed: "There should have been a small sandstorm near here in the second half of last night, which blew out the tracks. Looking at the direction of the sand, the sandstorm should be scraping from our right-hand side. ”
"What is the approximate area of a small dust storm?" Ye Yueming, who had been following behind everyone and didn't talk much, suddenly asked when she heard Wang Rui say this.
Wang Rui was stunned for a moment, and replied: "The left is only ten miles away, and the larger ones will be about twenty miles, and the sandstorm last night did not affect us, so it should not be very big." ”
"Since it's only ten miles away, let's scatter to find the traces of camels, especially Ah Xi and Prajna, you two must pay more attention." Ye Yueming estimated the approximate range, and said to everyone: "Ten miles is not very big, speed up your pace, and strive to meet in place within two hours." Remember, don't step on your footprints, or you'll probably not come back. ”
"Childe, I'll try." Listening to the crane, he suddenly raised his little head to look at Ye Yueming, and said to Ye Yueming.
Ye Yueming originally planned to take Tinghe to find the camel's footprints by himself, but unexpectedly, Tinghe actually stood up by himself.
Ye Yueming glanced at him, obviously mistaken: "It's better for you to come with me." ”
"No, it's not, I mean, I'll try." Tinghe turned his head to look at Emperor Xi and Prajna: "You help me." ”
Emperor Xi and Panruo were named by Tinghe for no reason, and they were both stunned. The two looked at each other, but they also walked to Tinghe's side, and Emperor Xi squatted down and looked at the crane: "How can we help you?" ”
Listening to the crane did not answer her words, but instead walked a few steps in the direction of Prajna, whispering something beside Prajna.
After hearing this, the emperor nodded, and before the emperor could react to what he asked the crane to do, he found that the night moon and the bright Wang Rui and others were all frozen on the spot, and the emperor's face fell, and he looked at the emperor: "What's the use of you pausing time now?" ”
"County Lord, please help me make a mess of my steps around the neighborhood." Listening to the crane, he sat down cross-legged, his bony eyes closed suddenly, and Emperor Xi looked at the crane in a daze, extremely surprised.
How could the medicine boy beside Mr. Kungo be an ordinary human child! She has been ignoring the little Tinghe, he can travel the world with Kunwu, and he can also fight against Zhao Manqing with Kunwu, how can he only be an ordinary human being?
After listening to the crane's eyes closed, a kind of aura slowly overflowed from his limbs and hundreds of remains, and he turned into the appearance of a crane in the void. The crane glanced at the emperor seal, and flew out with a long roar, and his movements were extremely fast.
Until this moment, Emperor Xi knew that Tinghe was really a crane, no wonder he was still a teenager after following Kunwu for so many years. The lifespan of the crane is eternal, if it is only 300 years old, converted into the human lifespan, it is indeed as big as the crane is now.
Di Xi looked at the shadow of the crane flapping its wings and disappearing, and a strange emotion surged in her heart for some reason, as if she had also spread her wings and soared in the sky.
"Xi, come back to your senses." Prajna's voice sounded just right, recalling Emperor Xi's thoughts that were gradually a little off-track. She came to her senses, and immediately stepped around the crowd, and in a short time she trampled the footsteps around her so much that she could not see even a complete footprint.
At this time, the crane in the sky circled and melted into the body of the listening crane. Tinghe also slowly opened his eyes.
"Over there." Tinghe stood up from the ground and pointed to the northeast, his tone firm.
Seeing this, Prajna withdrew his spiritual power, Wang Rui was a little shaken by the night and moon, and the three of them all felt a little confused by the second monk.
"Childe, let's go, this direction." Emperor Xi took a step closer and pointed to the northeast, and said to Ye Yueming meaningfully: "I have calculated it." ”
Emperor Xi once had a showdown with Ye Yueming, and Ye Yueming also knew that Emperor Xi was not an ordinary person, since she could say it with such certainty, she should be completely sure.
Wang Rui had never seen such a chattering person, but Ye Yueming was the biggest here, even if he was dissatisfied, he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only honestly follow behind Emperor Xi and Tinghe and walk towards the northeast.
He didn't believe in evil, he didn't believe that he could find the trace with such a casual finger, and after walking for half an hour, Wang Rui really saw the footprints of the camel, and his face was suddenly full of vegetables: "This ...... This ......"
"What's wrong?" Emperor Xi snickered and glanced at the real hero Tinghe, and asked seriously with a smile.
Wang Rui looked at the emperor seal, screamed, and knelt down towards the emperor without saying a word: "The girl shouldn't be the fairy girl in the sky, right?" ”
Emperor Xi finally couldn't hold back his smile, stretched out his hand to help Wang Rui and said, "Have you ever seen an indispensable fairy girl who I eat and drink like this?" ”
