After a long journey, the caravan finally came to an oasis under the leadership of Chu Feiyang. The camels were quietly drinking water by the lake, and Chu Feiyang was replenishing the grain and grass for these hard-working "porters".

Lei Yue and Chu Jiang sat under the shade of the tree together to enjoy the coolness, eating the leftover beef jerky from last night and drinking water. Along the way, Chu Jiang was more like a child who didn't know anything about the world, pulling Lei Yue around and being full of curiosity about everything, and Lei Yue was like an older brother who always took care of him.

"Hey, hey. Chu Jiang bit the beef and smiled, and then sat down next to Lei Yue, as if it was more fragrant to eat like this. Lei Yue looked helpless, but looking at Chu Jiang's clear eyes, she had to let go of his "willfulness".

"Brother Lei Yue?" Chu Jiang suddenly called. Hearing this, Lei Yue turned her head to look at him.

Chu Jiang looked at the busy crowd in front of him and asked casually, "Is it fun to practice?"

Lei Yue took a bite of beef, thought for a while, tilted his head and replied, "It's boring." ”

Chu Jiang asked again, "Then is your master good to you?"

Lei Yue replied without thinking: "Master is very good to me, and Senior Brother is also very good to me. Speaking of this, Lei Yue suddenly put down the beef in his hand and looked at the sky in the distance, his expression a little gloomy.

As soon as Chu Jiang heard that Lei Yue had a senior brother, he immediately became interested, and asked with a twinkle in his eyes: "Brother Lei Yue, do you have a senior brother?

When Lei Yue saw Chu Jiang's appearance, and then thought of the character of his senior brother Yuan Chen when he was ethereal, he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, guessing that if Yuan Chen met Chu Jiang, he would definitely like him very much.

"Brother Lei Yue?" Chu Jiang curiously pushed the Thunder Moon of the Gods. Lei Yue came back to her senses, smiled at Chu Jiang slightly, and told him about some things related to Yuan Chen.

The more the two talked, the more forgetful they became, and when Chu Feiyang finally found them, the lunch in their hands had not yet been eaten. Chu Feiyang said helplessly to Lei Yue: "Young Master Lei Yue, the storm may be coming soon, we have to hurry as soon as possible." ”

Lei Yue smiled at Chu Feiyang and replied, "Okay, let's just eat on the way." ”

"Okay, I'll ......"

"Ahh

Chu Feiyang was startled, and hurriedly turned around, only to see that by the pool, there was a thin man, holding the wrist of his right hand with his left hand, rolling on the ground in pain, and the rest of the people wanted to help him up, but they couldn't do it. Seeing this, Chu Feiyang hurriedly ran over, pressed him tightly, and asked eagerly, "What's wrong?"

Lei Yue saw that something was wrong over there, so she also put down the things in her hand with Chu Jiang and walked over.

"Scorpion, I was stabbed by a poisonous scorpion. The man gritted his teeth, his forehead was covered with sweat, and the back of his right hand had begun to be red and purple from the toxin.

When Chu Feiyang heard that he was just stabbed by a poisonous scorpion, his heart immediately relaxed. It is common for caravans to encounter poisonous snakes, poisonous scorpions and other poisons when walking in the Gobi, so they will prepare some antidote in case of emergency. So, Chu Feiyang immediately asked people to fetch the antidote and help the injured person do some simple treatment.

When the rest of the people heard that he had been poisoned by the scorpion, they didn't care much about it, and they went about their own business. Only Lei Yue frowned slightly, always feeling as if he was being watched, but when he looked around, there was nothing around except a few green trees.

After the bandaging was over, Chu Feiyang saw that Lei Yue was still in place, so he smiled lightly: "It's okay, I was just stabbed by a scorpion, it's not a big problem." ”

Lei Yue nodded slightly, and then said, "Let's go." ”

"Hmm. Chu Feiyang nodded, and shouted to everyone: "Pack up your things and continue on the road!" After speaking, he supported the person who had been stabbed by the scorpion just now and joined the others.

......

The caravan had no more accidents in the afternoon and arrived at the designated place as expected.

At this time, the clouds in the sky obscured the corner of the moon, but experienced merchants knew that such weather would not allow for heavy rain. So, Nie Pan and a few burly men sat around the bonfire, drinking spirits, and talking loudly about interesting anecdotes from the journey, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Lei Yue sat next to him and watched quietly, the Soul Eater Sword resting beside him, a little more cold now than the stability of the day. Chu Jiang pillowed Lei Yue's thigh and fell asleep peacefully. It's also strange to say, since the ethereal appearance, Lei Yue generally doesn't like to be close to others at night, but he is only happy with Chu Jiang, who has only known him for half a month, and is willing to take care of him like a younger brother.

Chu Feiyang looked at Lei Yue's thigh, Chu Jiang's peaceful appearance, and couldn't help laughing angrily: "This kid doesn't know what politeness is. ”

Perhaps, because of his only son, Chu Feiyang took great care of Chu Jiang. If it weren't for the ancestral training this time, Chu Jiang was a little depressed that he couldn't worship the old man as a teacher, and Chu Feiyang didn't want Chu Jiang, who had been delicate since childhood, to come to this difficult Gobi to suffer together.

I don't know if the sleeping position is not set up, Chu Jiang twisted his body uneasily, leaned his head up slightly, and then continued to sleep peacefully, completely unresponsive to Chu Feiyang's words.

Lei Yue glanced down at Chu Jiang with a smile on the corner of his mouth, there was a hint of softness in his eyes, and he said softly: "It should be that he is too tired during the day, let him have a good rest." After speaking, he also gave Chu Jiang a haircut. Chu Feiyang saw that Lei Yue loved his son so much, and he was even more convinced that his previous approach of inviting Lei Yue to join the caravan was correct.

So, Chu Feiyang said with a wry smile: "Can you run around like him during the day, can you not get tired?"

Lei Yue couldn't deny it, just put his hand lightly on Chu Jiang's shoulder, and looked at Nie Pan and the others silently. Seeing this, Chu Feiyang stood up, patted the dust on his body, and said, "Okay, Young Master Lei Yue, you also rest early, and you have to hurry tomorrow." ”

After speaking, Chu Feiyang turned around to do the final examination before going to bed to prevent mistakes. Lei Yue gently patted Chu Jiang's shoulder, her expression a little serious.

When he was on his way in the afternoon, Chu Jiang whispered to him that the person who was stung by the scorpion at noon was not so simple, and it seemed that there were bigger creatures that were about to move in the dark. After hearing this, Lei Yue was even more convinced that they had been targeted by the demon beast. So, he told Chu Jiang not to tell anyone else yet, so as not to cause unnecessary panic. As for when the other party will make a move, Lei Yue has been on guard.

As time passed, drowsiness gradually swept up, Lei Yue did not alarm Chu Jiang, found a random place, and lay down and began to rest.

The bonfire swayed alone in the desolate Gobi, shining on the cold side face of Lei Yue. After everyone fell asleep, the Soul Eater Sword quietly flashed a red light again. In the distance, the snake and scorpion behind the rock saw the dark red light of the Soul Eater Sword, and automatically retreated in obedience and disappeared into the darkness.
