Chapter 3: The Red Dumb Girl

Now that the Central Plains has been decided, the turbulent Western Regions is both the biggest hidden danger and the best opportunity for him, so over the years, he has consulted with General Liu, and played chess step by step to this day, just to win a small battle and earn back the glory and possibility that should belong to him. However, he also knew that there would inevitably be some obstacles along the way, but he didn't know how ruthless the man was prepared. Therefore, General Liu personally selected a team of personal soldiers, and Nanhua was close to him, so he was quite cautious all the way, and he arrived at the capital protection mansion safely and soundly. Maybe the strings collapsed too tightly all the way, and when they reached the realm of General Liu's lineage, they were careless.

He felt hot again, and vaguely remembered that he had been in the desert for more than seven days. Thinking of him being so meticulous and prudent, he was planted in a narrow ditch, and his entire internal organs were burned by a fire. But just when he felt that he was about to be roasted by this scorching heat, suddenly a cool breath went down from his throat, moistened into his cavity, and reached his heart and lungs, and the fatal fire instantly subsided from his body, and his consciousness became clear. After struggling a few times, his eyes finally stopped being iron, and he slowly opened them, and saw a palm-sized porcelain white face staring at him. Suddenly remembering the indistinguishable red shadow on the sand dune, he pushed the person in front of him away, only to hear her exclamation and staggered to the side.

Several figures rushed up around, and it was Nanhua who took the lead. Nanhua hurriedly helped him up, his face was flushed with a face that was as serious as wood on weekdays, and the corners of his mouth twitched with a smile: "Childe, you finally woke up!" Li Yuanqi looked around, still in the big desert where there was no edge in sight, or the team of people who followed him, but there was an extra red shadow on the side.

So he frowned and asked Nanhua in a low voice: "Who is this person?" Before Nanhua could reply, he asked again: "Is it a spy sent by that person?" As he spoke, he was a little excited, coughed a few times, and his temples fluttered again.

Looking back at the red shadow, Nanhua didn't know what to say for a while. He really couldn't tell where this person came from, and he didn't know if she was a spy or not. Seeing her sitting in the desert where she didn't pick up the shop and didn't pick up the village, there was only a fiery sand fox beside her, if he didn't doubt it, he couldn't do it.

Therefore, when she rushed down the sand dunes with the fox and floated in front of him, he was busy taking care of the six princes while ordering his subordinates to put up a battle to block her. But she didn't think that she was a dumb girl, she was stunned for a moment when she saw this battle, stopped, pointed to the six princes lying down, and pointed to the shady side of the sand dunes in front of them, and asked them to carry the six princes over.

glanced at the unconscious Six Princes, thinking that it would be impossible to continue basking in the sun, so he followed her guidance and carried the Six Princes to a cool place. But as soon as the six princes were placed to lie down, she came up at once, and he immediately drew his sword, but when he saw that she was not afraid, he reached out and tried the snort of the six princes, took out a pill from the purse on his waist, and fed it to the mouth of the six princes as he spoke.

He was startled, and stretched out his hand to block, but the red shadow did not stand firmly, and one side of his body was about to fall down the slope. He instinctively grabbed her wrist, only to find that it was so slender that he could hold her hands with a single palm. After standing firm, the red shadow looked indignant, pointed at the six princes, made an expression of death, and raised the medicine in his hand, motioning for him to smell it.

Although he was still full of doubts, he looked back at the unconscious Sixth Prince, and still leaned over and smelled the pill, and a clear aroma of ice chips and herbs rushed straight to Yintang. Walking in this dry and dry desert for several days, although he did not faint like the Six Princes, he was already flustered and lightheaded, and when he smelled this pill, he suddenly became clear, thinking that he might really be able to save the lives of the Six Princes. But this person's origin is unknown, if he is really waiting for them to fall into the trap and let the six princes be poisoned by her, he will be to blame. As a result, he was in a dilemma and made a difficult situation for a while.

The red shadow saw that he didn't speak for a long time, and stared straight into his eyes, and he realized that this porcelain-white face was not the appearance of a person from the Central Plains. The high bridge of the nose stands like a jade mountain between a pair of fluttering blue eyes, slightly upturned lips, like a smile but a cherry red, the eyebrows are not deep, not like the slender willow eyebrows of a woman in the Central Plains, but like two soft gold knives, with a bit of man's heroism.

As if she understood his thoughts, she looked disdainful, opened her mouth and swallowed the pill, opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue at him, signaling that he had really eaten it, so there was no need to doubt it. He regretted it for a while, thinking that if such a sixth prince died here due to fever, wouldn't it be his fault? Momentarily embarrassed. As if to see his thoughts, she sneered, took another one out of her purse, and reached out for him to smell it, which was no different from the previous one.

He hurriedly let her go to the side of the sixth prince, helped her open her mouth, asked her to feed the medicine, and sent a lot of water into her mouth. Without a pillar of incense, he listened to the six princes muttering something, and Hongying and him hurried to the six princes to take a look, and saw that his eyes moved a few times, and he actually woke up.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the sixth prince woke up, he regarded her as a spy as he did at the beginning, and he didn't know how to explain it, after all, he couldn't tell where this woman came from. But it is also a fact that she saved the six princes, coupled with the grace of her whole body and the fiery red sand fox next to her, which is strange at first glance, she is not like a fine work, but more like a young lady from a noble family in a small country in the Western Regions. But how could a young lady from an aristocratic family wander alone in this desert? There are indeed too many suspicious things about this woman's identity.

After thinking about it, he opened his mouth and said to the sixth prince: "Childe, it was this young lady who saved you just now, and I don't think she wants to embarrass us." Now that she has been walking for a few days, if she can't find a way out, it doesn't make much difference whether she is meticulous or not. I think she seems to be from the Western Regions, and she is quite familiar with this place, and she may be able to help me get out of trouble. Besides, she was deaf and dumb, which saved her a lot of trouble. ”

Li Yuanqi listened to it, pondered carefully, and said it was right. Especially the sentence, "If you can't find a way out, it doesn't make much difference whether she is careful or not" poked his eyebrows and heartache. Yes, all of them have reached this step of the field, what is there to be suspicious of? So he nodded, and asked Nanhua to ask the red shadow to see if he could take them out of the desert.

Nanhua struggled to compare for a long time, only to see the red shadow tilting his head, looking at Li Yuanqi and then at Nanhua, not knowing what he was thinking, but he didn't reply, as if he was deliberately revenge for their previous suspicion and neglect. Seeing this, Li Yuanqi stretched out his hand and pointed to the silver box in the camel basket, Nanhua immediately understood, took it and presented it to him, and he took a few silver ingots from it and handed it to Hongying.
