Chapter 5 Let's Run
"Oh~~Woo~~"
Dada~~
This time the wolf howl seemed to be mixed with the dense rushing sound of running, and the sound was unusually clear in the quiet night, and the wind permeated the eardrums.
"Draw your sword!" General Zhou outside the window ordered.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The sound of dozens of swords unsheathed drowned out the howl of wolves, filling the depths of the periosteum, and the atmosphere was tense to the point of solidification, as if a battle between man and beast seemed to detonate at any moment.
Wow!!!
There was a loud bang, and it seemed that something was falling apart.
At the same time, there was a sudden chaos outside the camel cart, and the sound of wolf roars and swords overlapped.
Wow! Click!
Just for a moment, the camel cart tilted forward, swooped down with inertia, and rushed straight out of a distance of more than ten meters, but because of the friction of the sand, it stopped, rolled on its side, and the people in the car fell on their backs and fainted.
------
In the early morning of the desert, everything is silent.
The crooked camel cart shook a few times, and a man crawled out from the side.
"Ahem...... I'm so dizzy! Xu Feifei woke up, obviously still a little confused. I rubbed my eyes and looked around, it was all barren. And on the ground lay dozens of guards who had been half-buried by the wind and sand.
"Hey! They're not going to die, are they? ”
"Doctor, it's your turn." Yang Xue reminded Ai Qing to check the breathing of these people in a heartfelt voice.
Ai Qing manipulated his body and put his hand on the soldier's neck artery and probed.
"And gas!"
"This one is still angry."
Sure that everyone was still alive, Yang Xue breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the wild sand around him, and proposed: "Or, let's escape now!" I asked General Zhou last night, we will reach the capital after two days of walking, we will take two swords and ride camels, if nothing else, there should be no problem in walking to the capital. ”
"But isn't it more dangerous to get to the Red Cloud Capital? Let's go back! Back to Gura . Ai Qing still has palpitations when she thinks of what happened last night.
"It takes seven or eight days to go back, and the longer it takes, the greater the risk. And then we need a lot of dry food and water, and these soldiers will only drink a few sips when they are very thirsty along the way, and it is obvious that the supplies are not enough, and if we take them all, these dozens of people will have to starve to death and die of thirst. Yang Xue said as she went around to the camel cart behind to transport supplies, took a sheepskin bag filled with water, walked to a camel, and poured a whole bag of water out of its mouth.
"Oh well! Listen to you! ”
With the consent of the two, Yang Xue manipulated her body to take a sword, a few bags of water and dry food, followed the example of the ancients in the TV series, found a piece of cloth, tied a burden, straddled it diagonally, and rode on a camel.
------
Along the way, the three souls chatted with their hearts, and the sky was relatively peaceful, and before they knew it, the sun also fell obliquely on the hills, and the wind and sand gradually became bigger.
"It's getting dark, and it's best to come across some dead wood, or you'll be in trouble if you do run into a wolf." Yang Xue looked around and reminded the other two with a voice.
"Deadwood? Is it to make a fire? Ai Qing asked.
"That's right, wolves don't dare to approach when there is fire, and the desert is colder at night, so you can keep warm if you have a fire." Yang Xue said, her eyes did not stop searching for a moment.
Fortunately, the desert was not devoid of grass, and after walking for a while, I finally found a few dry trees. The three of them slashed the branches with great difficulty, and then chose a slightly low-lying place to sit down.
Yang Xue untied his belt and tied it to the two ends of a branch to make a device similar to a string bow, circled the sharpened wood, padded a piece of wood on the top and bottom, and pulled the string bow with both hands, and after a while, sparks rose from the wood below, and then put the fine and dry branches on it, and after a few breaths, the fire burned.
"Awesome my sister! Honestly, who are you Bell Grylls? This skill is only straight to the bull! If it weren't for the fact that these hands were busy adding firewood now, Xu Feifei would definitely give Yang Xue a refill and praise.
"Okay, don't put gold on my face, I guess these branches won't burn until dawn, and I have to cut some over." Yang Xue said that she was just about to get up, when a wolf howl frightened her and sat back on the ground, raised her head, and saw a pair of dark blue eyes staring at her in the dark distance.
