Sixty-first Sura rumors
originally thought it was a hidden route, but it turned out that he was first ambushed by a halfling, and then he actually met Aisha, a girl who studied psionic energy with him, which made Muhadi feel a little black humor.
There was no time to listen to Aisha's detailed explanation, or to thank her, and the two of them galloped on their horses. The halfling raider behind him screamed and chased, only to be thrown farther and farther away. Their riding skills were poor, and the horses they had stolen were not as good as they were tamed, and in a short time they disappeared on the horizon behind the desert.
"Thanks to you this time...... Muhati thanked him first, he didn't become a lettuce, but it was all thanks to this human girl who couldn't figure it out.
“...... But how did you end up here?" he asked. "What about the two elven scouts of the Scorpion Tribe?"
"Followed you. She answered the first question succinctly, as if a little shy. As he took out a roll of fairly clean white cloth and a few herbs from his robe. He then applied the chewed herbs to Muhadi's wound and wrapped it in a white cloth, and the latter shook the girl's hand gratefully.
"It's in the belly of a halfling. Then he answered the second question.
It's a pity that Muhati thinks with some regret that al-Bashir and Issam are two good young men, who laugh a lot and are good at telling bad jokes, and now they actually ask halflings to eat them raw, hoping that the group of bad guys will have diarrhea. I've been with the elves for a long time, and I'm more or less familiar with these fierce desert people.
"How are you following us?" Mouhati asked, uneasy, scanning around for any suspicious traces. "Just before an hourglass, I thought the envoys were low-key and secretive. ”
"It's hard for a team to be secretive, especially when they're carrying an artifact, isn't it? too many people are staring, and some people will even ask a mage to probe with prophecy magic. Aisha replied unexpectedly.
"Artifact?!That must be difficult," Muhadi nodded, "so we can't carry any artifact, because if it's true, it's so secret that I don't even know anything about it." ”
"Are you serious, or are you lying to me?" Aisha looked at the boy with those beautiful blue eyes. Psychic sorcerers are good at reading other people's expressions, but they are also good at hiding their own, and Aisha is ultimately defeated.
"I'm serious, I haven't heard of any artifacts. I know very well that we didn't bring anything suspicious with us on our mission to Tyre this time. ”
"Could it be that the treacherous elves are hiding from you? They can't trust a human too much, even if you've done a great job for them. She tried to speculate.
Muhati thought for a moment and said. "No way, don't underestimate the abilities of a psychic maniver. I can tell the lies. ”
"Whatever you want. Aisha was a little unhappy, "One day you will realize the true colors of the elves." There will come a time when you can't deceive yourself anymore. Believe it or not, in the desert of this area now, rumors are circulating everywhere about the Scorpion tribe and the artifacts of the Scorpion tribe. ”
"There was even a party of twenty men, led by a mute man and followed by nineteen blind men, who passed through every tribe and every village, telling the story of your recent acquisition of the artifact. ”
There is such a thing. "You must be mistaken, I happen to know how those twenty people came here. They're certainly not artifacts of preaching or something. Muhathir continued, "I don't know where these rumors came from, but someone must have made them up, maybe someone from Ulrik City or a tribe close to the Witch King." ”
"Maybe......" Aisha looked at him, choosing to believe, "...... There is no truth in the rumors in the desert, but some people believe it. ”
"Anyone?" Muhadi raised his chin and pointed in the direction behind him, "those halflings?"
"Sharp-mouthed halfling, strong-hearted halfling, key-footed halfling......" she said the names of the three tribes, "...... There are many other tribes that are moving, humans and elves. I know that from the intelligence traffickers. Aisha chin the horse's belly with her heel.
"Did you also get our way forward from the intelligence peddlers?" said Mohamadi was still thinking about how the information was leaked. Fahd's warning...... He wouldn't have anything to do with it.
"No, it's not ......" Aisha stared at the desert ahead and whipped her mount, and the beast ran faster because of the pain. “...... I've been following you all the way since you first came out of the tribe. I had been in your tribe for two days with a turban covering my face and pretending to be a traveler. ”
"Aisha......" Muhati looked at Aisha, who was sitting close in front of him, who was always looking ahead and couldn't see her expression.
"How?"
"On the day we came out, wouldn't you also go and watch Chief Abiad give a speech in the tribe to do the mobilization. ”
"I'm not interested in listening to an elven chieftain nonsense. "Although the girl has a softer personality, she doesn't have a good impression of the elves.
That's good, Muhati was a little weak-hearted, and then pulled away from the topic, "I really didn't notice that we had been watched all the way." ”
"Of course you don't notice. She whispered, "I deliberately fell behind by a day." ”
"Then how can you possibly track our whereabouts?" Mouhathir wondered, "We've been doubly careful along the way. Even the back of the horse's butt is covered with a horse manure bag, how did you keep track of it? Could it be that you got the information from the supply points along the road?"
"Don't underestimate the abilities of a psychic sorcerer. These were Muhadi's exact words, and the girl returned them.
"Then presumably those halflings used a similar method to track them, magic or psionic powers. The teenager concluded.
"It doesn't seem to be. Aisha denied it, "...... What I heard at the previous supply station, it seems that the halflings have no specific information. But they poured out of their nests and set up ambushes in several places, leaving not many people even in their own nests. ”
"Why didn't you warn us in advance?" Muhati thought of the unlucky elves who had died in his stomach, "Want to die a few more elves?"
“...... What's wrong with a few more elves?" Aisha asked in a low voice, "This news only came from the last supply point, I was already a day behind you, and I came out immediately after learning the news, so I was able to rescue you." ”
"Why?" asked Muhadi.
"What, why?" Aisha asked.
"Why did you do that, and you followed us all the way and finally rescued me?"
The wind blew the fine sand, and the two rode on the sand, and Muhadi thought that the girl would not answer the question, only to hear her say in a deliberately suppressed voice: "You don't understand anything, Muhadi." ”
For a while, neither of them continued to talk, only the sound of the wind and the sound of the sun scorching the earth filled their ears.
"What are you going to do next?" the boy was the first to break the silence.
"I'll go to Tyre. Aisha still has her eyes on the road ahead, "There have been too many changes in the neighborhood lately, and I'm going to stay in the city and stay informed." If my tribe wants to continue, it must be on the side of the victors. ”
"What are you going to do?"
Muhadi looked at Aisha's forearm and spoke at last. "I'm going to Tyre too, and when I get there, I'll be able to get rid of slavery once and for all. What's more, you're going too. ”
The girl looked back with some joy, "The halflings can't find any artifacts in the camp, and they will suspect that they have been taken to the city by the survivors." As soon as you enter Tyre, killers and thieves will target you. ”
"Then I can only ask you to help me again," Muhati stared earnestly at Aisha's blue eyes, and even could see his own reflection. "I've lost my weapon now, I'm out of supplies......"
"Let's go out into town together. Aisha whispered her decision, and pulled a dagger from her waist, a precious dagger encrusted with precious stones. “...... Your dagger, back to you. ”
