Settling in the empty space, Alain stood up again and looked at the source of the mournful sound in the distance.

At first, nothing could be seen except sound, but the air currents around him had rolled, and the sand and gravel on the ground had begun to shake.

It won't be long before the sandstorm sweeps over the area they are in.

Whether you can survive or not is only left to fate.

Thinking about it, Alain took off his coat, sat down beside Xiao Kong, and covered the heads of the two of them with his coat.

Then, he pulled on the face towel around Xiaokong's neck and covered her mouth and nose.

"Are you afraid?"

Out of a man's instinctive protection of a woman, Alain's tone softened a lot.

Xiao Empty turned her head, although she couldn't see Alain's face clearly, she still looked at Alain's eyes and nodded.

"Well, I'm afraid, I don't want to die like this, I still have a lot of things to do."

Curled up beside Alain, Koku muttered.

"It's okay, don't be afraid, with me, even if the two of us will die here today, the two of us will not be alone."

As soon as Alain's words fell, the hurricane with the yellow sand was already behind the sand dunes where they were.

The sound of the wind makes people lose their sense of hearing, but the sense of touch of the human body does not disappear.

It's like a heavy hammer beating the body, and the power of this wind and sand is enough to tear people apart.

Fortunately, the sand dunes behind them helped them block the deadliest 'attack'.

It didn't take long for the clothes wrapped around the heads of the two of them to be scratched.

Xiao Kong's body is thin and lightweight, and in such a situation, it is easy to get injured.

Without thinking about it, Alain put his arm around her waist and protected her under his body.

Pressed against his heart, Xiao Kong clearly felt his powerful heartbeat.

It was a sense of security that she had never felt before, warm and reassuring.

I don't know how long it took for Xiaokong to fall asleep in Alain's arms, and she didn't even know when the sandstorm stopped.

When the starlight reappeared in the sky, the terrifying sand and dust that suddenly rose had disappeared without a trace, and the desert returned to calm, as if such a terrifying scene had never happened.

Alain's tense nerves also relaxed.

And at this time, when he wanted to let go of Xiaokong, he couldn't let it go.

She leaned on him, sleeping very soundly, and the face towel on her face slipped off.

Under the starlight, there was some sand and dust left on that delicate little face.

But it didn't affect her beauty at all.

She is like a pink hibiscus flower blooming in the desert, which makes people can't help but want to care for her and protect her.

In the years that Alain has lived, in his heart, there is just an obsession to find his sister.

Now, his sister has been found, and the guilt and pain that once filled his heart are slowly disappearing.

He thought he would spend his life in this way.

He really didn't expect that one day, there would be a girl who could make a little wave in his heart.

What makes Alain himself feel even more incredible is that he and this mysterious girl have only known each other for three days.

It's just that he still has his own mission, and it's still unknown whether he can complete it alive.

Other things are not something he should think about.

The most important thing is his identity, the things he has done, and he and he are not qualified to live a peaceful life with the woman he likes.

The more he thought about it, the more bored he became, but he still used his slender and powerful arms to hug Xiaokong, so that she could sleep peacefully beside him.

Look at the clearer and clearer sky, and the Milky Way like a ribbon sprinkled with precious stones.

With a sigh, Alain closed his eyes as well.

Nothing else happened that night, but it was such a short night that changed a lot.

The appearance of the desert yesterday has changed because of the sandstorm.

It was already impossible to use the sun to discern the direction, but now the change in the landscape makes it more difficult to find the direction.

What's more, after such a night, it seems that Xiaokong can no longer look directly at Alain.

When she woke up from Alain's arms, her face was already red.

In such a cold morning, she was sweating in the palm of her hand.

"Are you awake?"

Just when Xiaokong's brain was in a trance, Alan also opened his eyes, and at the same time, he also withdrew his hand.

"Ah, ah, wake up, I didn't hear when the wind and sand stopped."

Sora lowered his head, blushed, and looked away.

"It's stopped in the middle of the night, and while it's not so hot now, let's go."

After saying that, he stood up from the ground, and still reached out to pull Xiao Kong up from the ground.

I tidied up my clothes and shook the sand off my body.

When everything was ready, Alain began to have trouble again.

It was just dawn, and he couldn't see the position of the sun clearly, and he roughly estimated the direction they were going from the position of the starry sky last night.

But as if he was confident, Xiaokong took out a small box from his baggage.

And from the small box came a large and healthy black ant.

"What is this going to do?" Alan was a little puzzled, he didn't quite understand Sora's intentions.

Sora he, without saying anything, put the big ant on the sand.

At first, the big ant spun around the ground a few times, and then, as if it had determined its direction, crawled away without looking back.

"Aren't you going to the Empty Pavilion? This ant came from the oasis of the Void Pavilion, and no matter where it was, the ant could tell the direction of home. We just have to follow the direction it directs. ”

"Void Pavilion, so you've been there?"

Alain narrowed his eyes slightly, his analytical ability beyond ordinary people made him understand something at once.

Void Pavilion, Xiao Kong, isn't she the person of Void Pavilion?

If she is really a person from the Void Pavilion, then her good skills, her familiarity with the desert, and her face as a Zhongzhou person can all be explained clearly.

"Well, of course I've been, it's my home."

After saying the words naturally, Xiaokong smiled at Alain, she didn't want to hide it from him, it was actually the same in the morning and late.

This time, it was Alain's turn to be silent.

He looked at Xiao Kong in a daze, and the words written on his face were incredible except shock.

"What's wrong? Surprised? If you had told me earlier, or waited for me in the inn, we wouldn't have to suffer this sin here. ”

The purpose of his desire to go to the Void Pavilion is well known to Xiao Kong, but the fact that she is a saint still has to be carefully considered before deciding whether to tell Alan or not.

After all, her identity is too special.

"Yes, I was really surprised, strange, I can only blame myself for being clumsy, and I couldn't judge it."

At this moment, Alan was very scared, Xiao Kong would ask him why he wanted to go to the Void Pavilion, he didn't want to lie, but he didn't know how to tell her the truth.

"Okay, don't talk about this, let's go, I brought a few ants out this time, and it's still unknown if we can get out of here safely."

As if seeing through what Alan was thinking, Xiao Kong stopped the topic of the Void Pavilion, turned around, and was about to follow the path of the big ant.

But she forgot that she still had injuries on her feet, and her body shook in pain as soon as she took a step, but fortunately, Alan beside her quickly helped her.

"I'll carry you."

With only three words, Alan had already walked in front of Xiaokong and leaned down.

"Uh......"

Sora looked at his broad back and was stunned for a few seconds.

"Your feet can't walk for the time being, I'm carrying you, let's walk faster, come up."

Alan said very sincerely, Xiaokong bit his lower lip, looking embarrassed, but just like Alan said, letting him carry himself will speed up the journey of the two of them.

After thinking about it again and again, Xiaokong finally lay on Alain's back and gently wrapped his hand around Alain's neck.

"Shen? Won't it be tiring. ”

Timidly, Xiao Kong whispered in Alain's ear.

Alain is such a strong person, and his back is naturally the same as if he does not have any weight.

But he was still unprecedented, and joked with Xiaokong.

"Well, Shen, it's like carrying a cow."

“……”

Xiaokong stared, she didn't know what to say, no matter how fat she was, she couldn't compare with a cow.

pouted, and looked unhappy.

"Oh, is it? Unexpectedly, you have carried a cow! ”

"Well, isn't this being carried?"

"You ......"

Fortunately, there are only two of them in this desert, and if there is another person, they will definitely feel that the two of them are actually flirting with each other like this.

It's a pity that both of them have little experience, and they have been scolding each other all the way, and they don't know how much they enjoy this time.

It wasn't until Xiaokong was a little tired that she leaned on Alain's back, listened to his well-proportioned breathing, and stopped talking.

Sensing that the little girl on her back was silent, Alain wanted to look back, thinking that she was asleep again, but when she turned her head, she just saw her clear eyes looking at her.

"What's wrong? Why don't you speak? ”

Turning his head back in embarrassment, Alain's tone was a little unnatural.

"Alain, in your heart, are there people who care a lot and can't let go?"

Xiaokong actually wanted to ask if he had a sweetheart, but it was difficult for a girl to say this.

"Well, there is."

As soon as the words fell, Alain felt the body on his back tremble slightly.

Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Alain added another sentence to herself.

"It's my sister, and the one I can't let go of is her."

Younger sister? His sister Qingchi, Xiaokong forgot for a while, but even if Alan answered so, he still didn't answer the answer she wanted to know.

"Well, what I want to ask is, do you have, uh, just ......"

"Nope."

As soon as she heard her squirming and embarrassed voice, Alan knew what she was going to ask, so he simply answered directly.

"Oh!"

Obviously happy in his heart as if he was about to fly into the sky, Xiaokong still controlled himself, and just smiled secretly.

"What about you?"

This may be the only time Alain has asked something he shouldn't have asked, he has done a lot of arbitrary things, but none of them, like this sentence, made him so nervous that his breathing was a little messy.

"Me? There wasn't one before, but now there is. ”
