Chapter 58: Distress

At this moment, in front of everyone, is a verdant desert oasis, the water waves are clear, reflecting the white moonlight, which is intoxicating. The verdant branches and leaves sway gently in the wind, and there are even small birds flying on it, giving people the illusion that this is not a cold and unforgiving desert, but a gentle and delicate beauty of the south of the Yangtze River.

Patting the camel's buttocks, the camel obediently knelt on the ground, Baili Lan jumped off the camel, stood in front of the oasis, took a deep breath, and said with his eyes slightly closed: "Silly boy, this place is naturally still a desert, and we haven't even finished a tenth of the desert." ”

"No, it won't!" Xiaobao also learned from Baili Lan, jumped on the ground, ran to Bai Lilan's side, and stared at the oasis in front of him with a look of disbelief. "Eldest sister, shouldn't the desert be full of sand, how can there be green trees and lakes, they have long been sunburned to death by the daytime sun."

"Who said the desert can only be made of sand?" Bai Lilan led her camel and led the people behind her to walk slowly forward, and said, "I said that the desert is not a barren land as you think. If I'm not mistaken, there should be a snow-capped mountain ahead, and in the summer, the snow melts and flows down the slopes, forming countless rivers. One of them flows into the desert and seeps into the ground through the sand to form an underground water source. When these sources of water continue to gather, lakes are formed, which become a bright color in the desert. ”

Xiao Bao didn't seem to understand it, but it was still very exciting to find such a refreshing lake in the purgatory-like desert, so Xiao Bao didn't spend much time on this question, so he rushed to the lake with a happy face, put his hand into the lake, and played with it wantonly, and all his troubled thoughts were swept away.

The spring breeze and summer rain work together to set up a pile of firewood, and after it is lit, the warm light shines on everyone's face, which makes people relax their tense nerves.

To be honest, among these people, no one could fully understand Bai Lilan's true intention to go to the desert this time, and even Xiaobao was suspicious after entering the desert, feeling that the eldest sister did not bring her own experience. Especially in this desert oasis, Xiaobao feels that the eldest sister has a strong purpose, and before coming here, she has already locked her eyes here, and she is just an excuse for her to come to the desert.

Thinking like this, Xiaobao couldn't help but feel depressed, and the joy of discovering this oasis just now was also diluted.

At this time, Baili Lan, all his attention was attracted by this lake, and he did not find Xiaobao's abnormality.

Walking by the lake, Baili Lan sometimes stopped, sometimes looked into the distance, and looked thoughtful.

"County Lord, do you have anything to worry about?" Putting on a cloak for Baili Lan, the spring breeze asked gently.

Squinting her eyes, Bai Lilan didn't answer her question, but took out the jade pendant, and through the moonlight, she said with a slightly dark expression: "Isn't it here?" ”

When Chunfeng saw the jade pendant, he couldn't help but say: "This jade pendant was originally from you, and the slave thought it was lost." ”

"You know this thing?"

Chunfeng nodded and said, "Well, the slave maid has seen it before." This is a gift from the King of Dingnan to you and several other young ladies and young masters, you have also investigated this object before, and said that a few pieces of jade pendants are connected together, which is a sub-map, but I don't know where the place drawn on it is. Also, the lord of the family once said something, what is it...... What the...... Oh, by the way, it's 'Lan Jin Xi Xiangling, Hu Qin Gui Zhidong'. ”

"Lan Jinxi Xiangling, Hu Qin Zhidong ......" Baili Lan muttered softly, but she didn't understand the meaning. Fu picked up the jade pendant again, Bai Lilan stared at the pattern on it, and said, "I see that the pattern on it is very similar to the desert, and there is only one desert in Bac Ninh, so I brought Xiaobao here." Now there's another inexplicable sentence, and there's another map, which is really inexplicable. ”

After hearing what Bai Lilan said, Chun Chun's eyes lit up, and then he said, "How does the county lord know that there is a map on it, do you remember something?" ”

Bai Lilan shook her head and said, "Maybe, I've been dreaming lately, and the things in my dreams are very real, and I don't know if it's true or not." By the way, where are the other jade pendants? ”

"It's all at the slave maid's, and I've always kept it for you." Chunfeng smiled, and then said, "Wait a minute, the slave will bring it to you." ”

The spring breeze ran to the campfire with his pigtails in hand, and it seemed that he was going to the carriage to look for something. And Baili Lan sat next to the lake, looking at the clear lake, secretly in a daze.

Suddenly, there was a scream in the silent desert, which made Bai Lilan immediately get on guard, and at the same time get up, and before she could come back to her senses, her body was already rushing towards the place where the sound came from.

Listening to the sound, it looks like the spring breeze that just went back to get something, could it be that something happened to the spring breeze?

While speculating in his heart, he rushed towards the direction of the carriage at a high speed. Before Bai Lilan could get close to the carriage, he heard a "boom", and the carriage was blown to pieces, igniting a skyrocketing fire, while the others were fighting with several men in black, and there were also men in black who had been cut down on the ground.

With her eyes narrowed, Bai Lilan took out her pistol and shot at the man in black. Hearing a "bang", the man in black fell to the ground in response, and the other men in black seemed to find that Baili Lan was difficult after all, so they all gathered together and rushed towards Bai Li Lan to kill.

Looking at the skills of those people, you can see that the kung fu of the man in black is not weak. But no matter how good their martial arts are, they can't match the lethality of modern weapons. Although the power of Baililan's self-made pistol is greatly reduced, it is still more than enough to deal with a few people in black.

With a few more "bangs", Bai Lilan eliminated the remaining few people in black, and at the same time held the gun with both hands, continuing to maintain the posture of holding the gun with both hands.

Xiaobao cheered, ran to Baili Lan's side, and said with admiration in his eyes: "Eldest sister, you are still powerful, but in just a few moments, you can destroy all the enemies!" ”

Listening to Xiaobao's innocent words, Bai Lilan didn't have any expression at all, her eyes were still looking around vigilantly, and at the same time she said coldly: "The person who really wants to ambush us hasn't shown up yet!" ”

Xiaobao was stunned at first, and then mobilized the true qi of his whole body and felt the surrounding breath. At that moment, Xiao Bao's brows furrowed and he said, "There are at least ten grandmaster-level figures!" When did they start following us, and why didn't they feel it at all? ”

"Because they're well hidden, they've been walking under the sand, they're keeping the same pace and distance as us, and we're on the ground, so we can't feel it." Baili Lan's pupils slowly constricted, and at the same time he shouted, "All stand back, don't stand here!" ”

As soon as Bai Lilan's words fell, he saw that the place where everyone was still standing had sunk into a big pit at this moment, and it was surrounded by quicksand, spreading to the surroundings at a very fast speed, and the bottom of the pit was like a ghost eating people, revealing gloomy and cold air.

Because of Baililan's warning, everyone jumped out just now and was not invaded by quicksand. But after escaping and calamity, there are other tricks waiting for you, if you can't solve the enemy at once, you will only be exhausted by the endless attacks of the opponent, and finally exhausted, only to be killed.

Just when everyone was on guard and ready to do a big job, Bai Lilan sneered, took out a black projectile from his arms, and then swept a pit on the ground with his sword, his eyes were fierce, and he said: "Since it is an old friend who has met, then I will give you a familiar gift!" With that, Bai Lilan threw the fire and thunder bomb into the pit, and then heard an explosion, accompanied by several screams.

Baililan's explosion was like throwing a stone in the lake, and the fish were frightened and jumped out of the water one after another, revealing their original hideous faces.

Xiao Bao felt the strong sense of oppression on these grandmasters, and sweat drops slipped down his forehead, while holding the hilt of the sword with one hand, ready to fight for the death. And the other maids are also like facing the enemy, maybe they have never met so many masters at the same time in this life, although it is the first time, but it may also be the last time.

However, unlike everyone's nervousness, Bai Lilan still looked at each other coldly, without the slightest emotional fluctuation.

The head of the sect master couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw that Baili Lan didn't have the slightest timidity, but in an instant, he raised his twin swords and said with fierce intimidation: "Bai Lilan, hand over the treasure map, and we will spare you from death!" ”

Treasure map?

Bai Lilan narrowed her eyes, wondering if these people had installed bugs around her? What was discussed with Chunfeng just now has now become a bargaining chip for them to blackmail themselves, is this a coincidence or intentional? It's really curious!

Playing with the cold gun in his hand, Baili Lan sneered and said, "I don't even know where that ghost thing is, how to give it to you?" I said that you old fools, have you been in the mountains and old forests for too long, so that you are dizzy and recognize the wrong person? ”

"Who are you talking about, old fool?" Another grandmaster had a fiery temper, and when he heard Bai Lilan's disrespectful words, he wanted to step forward to teach him a lesson, but he was intercepted by the head of the grandmaster.

"Baili Lan, the ability to speak is useless, you still cooperate with us honestly, so that you can save your life!"

"Really?" Baili Lan smiled provocatively, and then said indifferently, "Even if I cooperate with you, the end is the same as not cooperating, why should I fulfill you?" I won't do anything good to me. ”

The head grandmaster thought that Bai Lilan was worried about his own safety, so he pretended to be kind and said: "You can rest assured of this, as long as you are willing to hand over the map, I will guarantee you, and I will definitely keep you safe." ”
