Xiao Tianjian opened his long sword and flew widely, and wherever the blade went, flesh and blood flew. Only half of the gang members who originally surrounded them were still struggling to support, and many of them were injured, and the black fat man, who had long since shrunk away, was shouting.

Minna felt the pain in her abdomen disappear, and couldn't help but look at the corpse in front of her, but reached out and quickly pulled out the potions and materials that had not yet been destroyed, took off the small vest on her body and wrapped it, dodged a knife cut next to her, and kicked the sneak attacker in the hind leg, sending him to his grandfather, a sword fell, and he died.

More and more gang members had no way to take Xiao Tianjian, so they hit Minna with their ideas, and she had to keep an eye on her surroundings, dodge various attacks, and sometimes kick a few times, or pick up a knife to force the gang members back. I don't know how long it took, the gang members died and fled, and there was no one in front of the ancestors and grandchildren anymore, and the black fat man had long since disappeared.

Xiao Tianjian took a sip, turned around and asked with concern, "Minna, are you okay?" Minna shook her head: "Now my stomach doesn't hurt, and I'm not hurt." Xiao Tianjian breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the potion made by his old friend was really trustworthy, and he would have to ask for a few more bottles next time. He frowned in disgust when he saw the blood stains around him, and then pulled his granddaughter over: "I'm afraid we won't be able to play, we must leave as soon as possible, those people will come back soon." ”

Although Minna was a little frustrated, she couldn't care about playing, and she obediently let her grandfather hold hands and leave, and after walking less than a few dozen steps, she saw the branches and leaves of a bush of trees next to her shaking, and it seemed that someone was hiding behind.

"Who?! Come out! Xiao Tianjian immediately shouted.

Out of the bushes came a man with a thin body and a pale and delicate face, none other than Freedo.

Xiao Tianjian sneered when he saw him: "It seems that your new master has left you alone?" Come here, I'll give you a good time! Minna's heart tightened, but she thought that her stomach hurt badly just now, and it was all caused by this person, so she bit her lip and didn't make a sound.

Frido listened to Xiao Tianjian's words, his face turned even paler, he fell to his knees with a thud, bowed his body, and pleaded in a trembling voice: "Lord Earl, please forgive me, I ...... I was forced...... They, they're the boss here, and I can't help ......."

Xiao Tianjian snorted coldly: "Don't pretend to be pitiful, I've seen a lot of people like you, and you can do it to children, what else do I want you to do?!" With that, she was about to stab her sword, Minna opened her mouth and sighed, but she didn't stop him.

Seeing the sword stabbing at his chest, Frido closed his eyes in fright and cried out, "I know where their ambush is!" The blade of the sword stopped less than an inch away from him, he opened his eyes and stared at the sword, he didn't dare to make a sound, as if he was pinched by the throat, and screamed: "I know how many of them there are, and I know where there is an ambush, I know where to avoid them, and I have a sturdy horse with enough clothes and water on it, I will show you the way, please...... As long as you don't kill me......"

Xiao Tianjian narrowed his eyes, as if he was hesitating to let him go. Minna looked at Frido's frightened and humble look, and somehow felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and she pulled at her grandfather's sleeve, with a hint of pleading in her eyes. Xiao Tianjian glanced at his granddaughter and frowned.

Frydo noticed it and hurriedly said, "Although the Earl can escape smoothly without me, the poison in the little lady ...... I've got a drug here to relieve the poison ......"

Xiao Tianjian turned his head to look at him coldly, and saw that he took out a small bottle from his pocket of his clothes and handed it out, so he motioned for Minna to go and get it, and after checking it, he didn't let his granddaughter take it, but just raised his chin towards Frido: "Get up and lead the way, tell me what you know." ”

He removed his sword, and Frido stood up with a white face and a trembling face, and pointed to a path to the right: "Please...... Go this way......" Xiao Tianjian motioned for him to go first, and then pulled his granddaughter to follow.

They took a remote path, first two streets to the outskirts of the town, where they avoided a few armed young men.

Frido walked and whispered that the mastermind who sent someone to intercept Xiao Tianjian this time was a deputy of the late underground duke, who was originally the head of the Mengli region, but because of the attack on the duke, he was hit hard by his competitors, and he was worried that Xiao Tianjian would become a help to others, so he wanted to strike first.

Xiao Tianjian sneered all the way, that kind of fool will kill himself sooner or later, and a few other people let him besiege him, but he is afraid that he will not have any good intentions, so he will not be stupid enough to be used as a gunman.

When Frido saw his face, he was stunned, and hurried them into the place where he had hidden them, took them away, and led them away from the patrols to the edge of the town. When he handed the reins to Xiao Tianjian, a strong reluctance rose in his heart, but he still held back: "There is a person on the horseback with ten days' dry food and water, as well as a tent, enough for Lord Earl and Little Miss to walk out of the desert." ”

Xiao Tianjian looked at the rolling sand dunes in the distance and glanced at Frido, who was busy saying, "The road to Nuojia and Fan'a is guarded by hundreds of people, and the only one with fewer people is the desert direction, that's because they think you're going to Fan'a...... This is, this is the safest way to go. ”

Xiao Tianjian was noncommittal, took the reins, and said lightly: "Very good, now...... It's time for you to hit the road. With that, he drew his sword again. Minna's eyes widened in surprise.

Frido lost his voice and said, "You promised not to kill me!" ”

"When did I promise you? I'm just asking you to lead the way. Xiao Tianjian sneered, "A frenzied repetitive villain like you, letting you live for half an hour more is already cheaper for you." ”

Frido's legs weakened and he fell to his knees: "No, no, no!" You can't kill me, I'm forced, please, don't kill me! Please......" He bowed his body and kept pleading, but Xiao Tianjian was unmoved, and he was about to raise his sword and stab down.

Minna stretched out her hand and grabbed her grandfather's sword-holding hand: "Grandpa, you promised not to kill him, and you will do what you promised!" ”

"Minna, you're mistaken, I just asked him to lead the way, and I didn't promise not to kill him."

"But he said that as long as you don't kill him, he will show us the way, and you ask him to lead the way, which means that you promise." Minna's little face was full of seriousness, "If you promise, you can't kill." ”

Xiao Tianjian frowned: "Get out of the way, Minna, have you forgotten that he poisoned you?" You still plead for him?! ”

Minna held his hand and refused to let go: "Don't!" Grandpa, I know that he poisoned me, and at first, I was also very angry, but then I thought that he knew that I didn't drink milk tea and didn't eat much scones, and he also poisoned these two foods, how could he deliberately harm me? If he really wants to poison me, he should put it in the barbecue. I...... I don't think he's a bad guy...... He taught me a lot and was kind enough to chat with me......"

Xiao Tianjian was skeptical: "Really? But he still poisoned it, and you just hurt so badly, it's not fake. Moreover, as soon as the master died, he took refuge in others, and he didn't look like a good person! He is kind to you, but he just wants to paralyze you. ”

"No, no!" Frido looked up abruptly and said, "I never wanted to hurt the little lady!" They poisoned me, and if I refused, they would kill me! When I delivered food to the little lady, they kept watching, and I couldn't help it...... I really don't want to die, I just want to live a better life, a person like me who has no power can't get ahead in this country at all, no matter how much I know, I can only be looked down upon...... I know the Duke is your friend, but ...... You have no idea what kind of life we have under him......" His voice lowered, almost choking.

Xiao Tianjian squinted at him for a while before he said, "You can let it go, but what if you go back and tell people and lead those people to chase us?" ”

Frido took a step forward excitedly, his eyes almost popping out: "No, I was going to leave." They keep fighting, and who knows if there will be danger...... And I'll help them deal with you, and you're sure you won't let me go, so...... I've decided that I'm going to hide in Encore for a while and come back when the situation here stabilizes. If you let me go...... I'll hide in a friend's house and find a chance to leave, and they won't find me!" ”

Xiao Tianjian stared at him closely, thinking about the credibility of these words, Minna whispered, "Don't kill him, okay?" Grandpa, I really don't think he's a bad person......" Xiao Tianjian glanced at his little granddaughter helplessly, and finally withdrew his sword. As soon as Frido saw the sword against him disappear, the whole person collapsed to the ground as if he had collapsed.

Xiao Tianjian kicked him angrily, and reached out to carry his granddaughter on the horse, but Minna turned around and walked up to Friedo, squatted down and said to him, "You don't look like this anymore...... I—I'm so sad to see...... You're so smart, so powerful, why do you want to do this...... I don't know how to say it, but I feel very uncomfortable when I see you kneeling on the ground, trembling all over, I really ......" She sniffed, walked to him at the urging of her grandfather, and helped him to his horse.

As they rode out, Minna heard Frydo's shout behind her, and when she looked back, she saw him propping up his upper body with tears on his face, and shouting to her, "Miss Minna, ...... in the future." Don't trust others easily, really...... Don't trust ...... easily" He bowed his head, as if weeping bitterly.

Minna didn't have time to think about it, the horse they were riding had already run far away, and the twilight was drowsy, and gradually, Freedo was no longer to be seen.

As night fell, the grandfather and grandson had already left the town of Monli. They were now on the edge of the desert, with endless yellow sand on the right and a high mountain separating Wisa from Van A'a on the left, and at the junction of the foot of the mountain and the desert, there were many craggy rocks, sparse green grass scattered on the sand, and the north wind blew and blew up puffs of dust.

Seeing that there were no pursuers behind him, Xiao Tianjian found a place to stop, took out the water on the horses, had a belated dinner with his granddaughter, and checked whether there was any remnant of the poison she had before. Seeing that her granddaughter was a little worried and seemed to be thinking about something, he asked her what was wrong.

Minna said confusedly, "Just now, what did Frido mean when I told me not to trust others easily?" "Did you tell her not to believe him?

Xiao Tianjian smiled: "He didn't say anything wrong. You kid is too easy to trust others, and now you are better than before, but when others are kind to you, you treat people as friends, which is the worst. What if a bad person deliberately treats you well, but in fact it is to harm you? ”

Minna tilted her head and thought for a moment, and said, "But I don't think Frido is a bad person, if it's a bad person, I ...... I can tell it. ”

Xiao Tianjian shook his head and smiled: "How can it be so easy to see if you are really good at deceiving people?" If it's an experienced person, it's okay, but you're a child, how can you have that ability? For example, Frydo, what he said may not be fully believed, he said that he would not betray us, in fact, he was afraid that he would die if he was caught by those people, and it was not really for us at all. It's ridiculous that you still think he's a good guy. “

Minna pouted, "Anyway, I just don't think he's a bad person." ”

"Good, good." Xiao Tianjian sighed helplessly, "Whatever you think, but you can't trust others so easily in the future, in fact, I am also wrong, I thought that Frido would not dare to disobey the strong, and he would definitely be obedient, but I didn't expect him to be afraid of death to the point that he would rather offend me, and I still don't want to leave you alone in the future." ”

Minna nodded happily and hugged her grandfather's neck: "That's right, grandpa can't just leave me in the future." ”

Xiao Tianjian smiled dumbly, and could only urge her: "Hurry up and eat enough, let's take advantage of the dark and cool to walk a little more, and wait until noon to rest." He turned his head to look at the mountain behind him: "Now, we can only walk along the foot of the mountain, and take the Shaonan side back to East, fortunately, this road will be much more peaceful." ”

Minna nodded, quickly swallowed the dry scones, drank water again, and let her grandfather carry her horse again, and set off again.

They went all the way south, and for the first two or three days, they were worried that there would be pursuers, so they hurried to the road. Although Xiao Tianjian is extraordinary, he is always not as familiar as the locals in fighting in the desert, and with his little granddaughter, he can naturally avoid it. Later, when he saw that no one was chasing him, he believed that Frido really didn't tell the gangsters, and slowed down.

They adjusted their schedules, setting out at sunset every day, resting before the sun rose in mid-heaven, sleeping in a tent prepared by Frido, and eating dry food and water. In this arid desert, it seems that it is extremely difficult to condense the water element to make a water ball, so Minna no longer wastes her magic power, and only relies on the storage in the water bag to quench her thirst. Xiao Tianjian praised this and encouraged her to practice more wind magic.

When the sun is very hot, it is possible to blow a little wind to cool down, but when a strong wind blows on the desert, it is not a pleasant thing for the wind mixed with sand and dust to blow into people's mouths and nostrils. Gales from the northern plateau hit the yellow sand, rolling the sand into the sky, and then falling again, burying countless creatures. Minna and their grandchildren were obviously walking at the foot of the mountain, but they were still inevitably attacked by the wind and sand, and in less than an hour, both of them became yellow, and a little pat on the body was a puff of smoke and dust.

Minna grimaced, and Grandpa took out a scarf from the storage ring to cover her head and make her feel better, but the pain of the sand on her face was inevitable. When will this road be completed?

Xiao Tianjian smiled bitterly: "It won't be long, I estimate that it's almost halfway now, as long as it will be another seven or eight days......" Before the words fell, another gust of wind and sand blew, his mouth was full of sand, and he had been snorting for a long time, and he had not yet cleaned up, so he had to sigh and shut up. He hadn't walked through the desert in the spring before, it was the windy season, so he had to endure it.

However, as if he were going to play a joke on him, one evening, not long after they had set out, the northern horizon suddenly seemed to be stained with blood, and a dark red cloud quickly struck them in the direction they were going, and at the same time a wind stronger than before.

Minna panicked and grabbed Xiao Tianjian's cuffs: "Grandpa, what is that?" "It's a desert storm." Xiao Tianjian replied in a deep voice, he manipulated the horse under him, accelerated his speed and ran forward, as long as he ran behind a protruding mountain wall about three kilometers in front, they would be safe. Before that wall, not even a larger stone could be found at the foot of the hill on the left.

However, it backfired, I don't know if it was because the storm was moving faster, or because the horse was weak, when the storm was about to hit, they were still nearly a kilometer away from the mountain wall, Xiao Tianjian knew that he couldn't delay any longer, so he had to climb the left slope of the horse, hugged his granddaughter tightly and fell to the ground, and then dragged the horse to hide behind a mountain rock the size of a door panel.

Minna only felt that the wind was rolling the sand on her face and body, and the scarf had long been blown away, she could barely breathe, she couldn't even open her eyes, so she could only bury her head in her grandfather's arms.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the world around was already full of yellow sand, Xiao Tianjian was lying behind the stone with his granddaughter in his arms, but the reins in his hands were getting tighter and tighter. With nowhere to shelter from the wind, the horse neighed and struggled frantically, and he was almost unable to hold on to the reins anymore, so he could only let go of the child for the time being, and tried to pull the baggage off the horse's back, but the oncoming rubble swept by the wind interrupted his efforts, and the reins also broke.

He thought that there was nearly five days of water on the horse's back, and was about to catch up, but he heard his granddaughter scream, and turned back to find that the mountain rock was actually shaking, and in horror pounced to protect Minna, and the horse had already disappeared into the wind and sand.
