82 Desert Gangs

Hearing this, Bal couldn't help but feel a little resentful, raised the wine bag and poured a few sips before wiping his mouth with his hand, "They are finally withdrawing, no wonder this group of cavalry is rushing into our tribe today to loot property, but it may not be a good thing for them to withdraw." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

This sentence immediately made Sheng Xuan wonder, "Why is it not a good thing that the enemy has withdrawn?" You don't know the character of the steppe people, we are like a group of wild wolves, when there is a foreign enemy, we will unite and fight, but when the enemy is gone, someone will show wolf teeth to their brothers, hundreds of tribes in this grassland, originally there were contradictions between them, and when the Lone Bamboo army all withdrew, it is inevitable that these tribes will fight again, I am afraid that the first to be attacked is the Mier and the Silver Ministry, because they have all taken refuge in Guzhu, as well as the Saren Department and the China Department, they are the jackals on the grassland, they have been reduced to a group of bandits, almost all the tribes have been robbed by them。 ”

"The situation in the steppe is so complicated, what are you going to do?" Bale thought for a long time before he said slowly, "I plan to take my brother to join the Zari tribe, which is the largest tribe in the steppe, and their Khan King is also an eagle on the steppe, and is the Khan King respected by everyone, I think in the near future, the grassland will be sprinkled with the blood of the people of the Owl Country, but it will not be too long, sooner or later, the Zhari Khan King will unify the steppe sooner or later, so that there will be real peace here." ”

Next, Sheng Xuan told Bale about the Demon King, which made him more eager to help King Zari Khan unify the steppe, only in this way could he have the strength to resist the attack of the Demon King.

In the end, he told Helian Zan's story, and looked at Bale's somewhat gloomy expression and couldn't help asking, "Do you hate him?" "Hate? No, why should I hate him? My life was picked up by him, otherwise I wouldn't have lived to this day, so I won't hate him for anything he does to me, if I say hate, I only hate the king of Qiling, he caused all this, if it weren't for him, Brother Helian and I would still be good brothers." ”

The two chatted all night, and the next morning, Bale was going to take the warriors back to the tribe first, and then to contact the Zhari tribe, and couldn't help but ask Shengxuan, "Good brother, are you willing to stay in the grassland? ”

Hearing this, he was really a little moved, but when he thought of the terrifying Cai'er, once he started to do it, Bale would have to come forward to help, so I was afraid that there would inevitably be casualties, so he still couldn't help but refuse Bale, "Then where are you going?" "I'm going to go through the Tagu Desert to take a look over there." "What? You're going to cross the desert, it's tens of thousands of miles, and there's no food, there's no water, there's a terrible hurricane, and there's a terrible monster, and that's not the worst thing, those dunes change every day, and if you don't get buried, you'll lose your way, and you'll die of hunger and thirst there." ”

Sheng Xuan smiled, "When I passed by the military camp in Guzhu, I got a lot of dry food and drinking water, which is estimated to be enough for me to eat for a few months, I think I can always go out in a few months, I also led two horses, with them I think I will be able to pass through in less than ten days." ”

"Ten days, don't be kidding, in the middle of the desert, the sun bakes the eggs during the day, and the dripping water freezes at night, and it is good to walk a hundred miles a day at most, and there is no pasture there, do you want war horses to eat sand?"

Hearing this, he realized that he had overlooked a serious problem, it seemed that he really knew too little about this desert, and I am afraid that it was precisely for this reason that the kingdom would have been trapped here for so many years, otherwise they would have been looking for a way through the desert a long time ago.

Balak walked into the warriors, said something to them, and after a while returned, and several warriors came up with large piles of dried meat, spirits, and felt leather, and piled them up in front of him, "Bring these, spirits and felt to keep you out of the cold of the night, and these robes to keep you out of the wind and sand, and these leathers that you tie to the horses' hooves to keep them from getting caught in the quicksand, and this," he said, holding up a large bag. This is a feed made of herbs and grains, and only a small handful of them can be fed to the war horses every day to keep them strong. ”

Looking at these things, I am afraid that all the supplies that these warriors carried with them, Sheng Xuan couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, "You gave it to me, so what should you do?" "We, don't worry about us, the tribe is only a day's journey from here, our horses have been rested last night, and it is estimated that we will be able to rush back in half a day today." "Really?" "Really!" "Well, I'll take these things. ”

Saying that, he put those materials into the ring, and then took out a few boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, which were still obtained in the Nanming Dynasty, and then they have not been moved, the number is enough to be 100,000, and if it is converted into gold coins, I am afraid that there are millions of them, "These are left to you, you have been in the Red Dragon for so long, I believe you can exchange it for a good price, I also have some friendship with Master Elise in Qingqiu, you go to him to buy some weapons." ”

Hearing this, Baler was suddenly very happy, "Good brother, I won't say kind words, these are really what we need, in the past, we all relied on the blacksmiths in the tribe to build and repair weapons, because the craftsmanship is not good, so the scimitar must be very thick so that it will not break, which affects the flexibility, if we can buy the weapons produced in Qingqiu, I believe we will be closer to the unified grassland." ”

Sheng Xuan went up and hugged Bale tightly, and it took a long time to say "Take care!" Bale was obviously very emotional, and he couldn't even say how to take care, Sheng Xuan was most afraid of this kind of parting scene, so he got out of Bale's arms and flew directly on the horse, and then galloped towards the west, and a group of soldiers behind him sang a low farewell song, which made this scene even more sour.

Coming to the edge of the desert, he couldn't help but take one last look back at the grassland, and the place behind the grassland, there were too many memories here, but he didn't know when he would be able to come back.

Strictly speaking, the place where Shengxuan is located is not a desert now, because there are still some low shrubs and clumps of wild grasses, these plants are very drought-tolerant, and the surface is covered with spikes, there is no way to graze, even the most unfussy goats may not eat such grass, once all the kingdoms were driven into this area, you can imagine how hard their lives are.

Sheng Xuan walked slowly in this low-lying and uneven place, for fear that the speed would break the horse's legs, and he relied on these two horses to pass through the desert this time.

Walking cautiously all the way, from time to time he carefully checked, there were no obvious signs around the current environment, for fear that he would accidentally go in the wrong direction.

Suddenly, there was a gurgling sound in the distance, Sheng Xuan hurriedly rode his horse over, and found that it was a clear river, although the river was not wide but very deep, and the flow was also very gentle, and finally saw the footprints of some small animals on this river beach, it seems that there are still signs of biological activity in such a harsh environment.

Sheng Xuan led the two horses to the river beach and let them drink to their heart's content, I am afraid that if they have to limit their water use any further, they will never have the opportunity to drink water so luxuriously.

Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and the sound came far along the empty four fields, and there should be more than a hundred horses listening to the sound, who would come here?

Just as he was thinking, a group of figures appeared in the barren hill not far away, and they were rushing towards this side, shouting something while galloping wildly, he couldn't help but raise his vigilance, and then turned over on his horse and began to gallop along the river beach.

But the two horses were obviously not accustomed to the soft beach, and no matter how much he urged, they did not dare to gallop wildly, and in less than half an hour he was overtaken by the group of men and horses behind him, and they quickly circled him in front of him, and surrounded him.

A big black man shouted, "Hey, boy, do you see a little girl walking over? Hearing this, Sheng Xuan couldn't help but be shocked, and secretly said in his heart, "Little girl of different races, how can there be a little girl of different race passing from here?" and shook his head at the same time, "I didn't see it." ”

The big black man beckoned and wanted to leave with the team, but at this moment, a thin man next to him whispered a few words in his ear, and the big black man suddenly turned his face, and there were a lot of people up and down, and the most important thing was to look at his two horses carefully.

"You can go, the horses will leave us. Suddenly hearing this, Sheng Xuan couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't help asking, "Why do you want to leave the horse?" The man next to the black man laughed wickedly, "If you don't want to keep the horse, it's okay, then leave your life." As he spoke, he stabbed and pulled out his saber, and was about to do it.

At the same time, the team of 100 people also drew their weapons at the same time, Sheng Xuan couldn't help but be angry, he didn't expect to meet such a group of horse thieves not long after separating from Bale, and he actually grabbed his head, even if he wanted to do it, but suddenly remembered that they were looking for an alien girl, he couldn't help but move in his heart, and secretly said, "That alien little girl won't be Cai'er." β€œ

Looking at the current situation, I am afraid that he will chop him into pulp if he doesn't say a word, and he can't help but smile slightly in the face of these people, "I didn't say that I won't give it to you, why are you in such a hurry? Let me clean up my things, okay? There are some things that you don't need." ”

The man just now said, "Okay, even if you are a kid, you can clean it up quickly, but the gold and silver are soft and soft, and I will allow you to take two pieces of clothes with you, which can be regarded as an uncle, and I am very kind." As soon as the words fell, the group of bandits burst into laughter.

Sheng Xuan pretended to pack up his things unhurriedly, slowly turned to the middle of the two horses, suddenly pulled out and asked, pressed his hand on the saddle, his body had already flown over, and he kicked the answering thief out with just one foot, and then his hand was on the neck of the big black man, and the whole person was like a vine wrapped around him, and the sword had already touched the throat of the big black man.

The big black man looked at the sword at his throat, and snorted coldly, "How can I, Heishi, be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and I will kill if I want to!" "Stupid big man, now that your life is in my hands, you are still so arrogant." "Even if I die, you won't be good? Look around, I have a hundred and ten brothers, even if you are one person and one knife, you will be a pulp." Hearing this, the horse thieves were eager to try.

"Don't move, whoever dares to move will kill him, see if you are fast or I am fast. Then he glanced at him quickly, and saw that everyone was staring at him dumbfounded, not daring to move, "Throw the knife down." These people looked at each other, but the eldest brother was in the hands of people, there was no way but to obey, just wanted to throw, who knew that the person who had just whispered to the black man shouted, "Don't throw it, we rushed up, one person and one knife will kill him, if he throws the knife, he starts to attack, we can't resist." ”

It is said that Yi Shengxuan's skills are not afraid of them at all, but if he really moves, I am afraid that these people will slaughter the horses first, and then he will have to go on a desert trip on foot.

Hearing this, the group of thieves slowly gathered around, and approached a few steps closer, Sheng Xuan really wanted to kill these nasty guys immediately, but after thinking about it, he had to ask them about the environment here, I believe that no one would know better than them.

He held the black man hostage and slowly approached his horse to the river beach, and suddenly a vicious wind hit behind him, Sheng Xuan waved a sword without looking at it, only to hear the sound of the other party's weapon was suddenly cut into two pieces, everyone was stunned, and it took a long time before someone shouted, "This kid's sword is really fast! It must be a sword!"

"This kid has a sword, give me to snatch that guy!" The thief's heart was originally intended to see wealth, and at this time, seeing that Sheng Xuan not only had two good horses, but also a sword, Hua Jackal's heart suddenly began to waver, and he no longer cared about the life and death of the black man, and he was about to rush up and snatch it with the guy commanding more than a dozen people.

Sheng Xuan smiled, reached out and grabbed the belt of the big black man, and then put his toes on the horse's buttocks, and he had already taken him out of the seven or eight zhang away, and suddenly jumped out of the encirclement of these people, and the tower-like body was carried up like a chicken, which immediately made these horse thieves quite jealous, and they didn't dare to step forward.

"Dude, your subordinates are not very good, they don't even care about you for a sword, I think they just want your life. Saying that, he patted him on the back and flashed to the side, the original black man's face had already turned iron-blue, and now when he heard this, it turned even more blue and purple, and he couldn't help but tremble a little.

I saw him stretch out his waist knife, and then pointed at the person who was talking next to him with the tip of the knife, "Hua Jackal, even if you kid wants to be the boss, you don't have to be in such a hurry, besides, you have to have some real skills to do this position, just rely on you, I." Immediately, the group of horse thieves divided into two groups, and more than a dozen people around Hua Jackal surrounded him, and a group of horse thieves next to him also stared at them.

It seems that this flower jackal still has a small force of its own in this group of horse thieves, and may be able to use them to avoid doing it themselves.

After saying that, the black man had already rushed up in a flash, Sheng Xuan saw that he didn't seem to know any martial arts at all, but the knife was twice as thick as the circle of others, I am afraid that the knife was not a hundred catties but also ninety, and he danced with the sound of the wind, and rushed straight to the flower jackal.

The flower jackal was shocked when he saw this scene, he knew that he was not the opponent of the other party at all, and hurriedly smiled and said, "Big brother, don't be angry, I just want to snatch that kid's things and give them to you, so many of us, that kid doesn't dare to hurt you at all, do we really dare to hurt you?"

Hearing this, the big black man suddenly stopped, "What you said is true?" "Of course it's true, how could I lie to you?" Sheng Xuan felt strange when he heard this, how could the boss of a gang be a tendon and a straight intestine?

"Stupid big man, that kid is clearly lying to you, why do you believe people so easily, I really don't know how you are a big brother, can't you see that the flower jackal just wants your life, you actually believe him like this." After speaking, he found a stone and sat down, and leisurely watched the excitement.

"I don't care about my business, you better leave the horse and go quickly, or I'll be rude to you. The black man roared wildly, but Sheng Xuan was unmoved, looking at those horse thieves leading his horses as if he didn't see it, but shouted to the flower jackal, "Hey flower jackal, I see that you are also quite clever, what future do you have with such a boss? I think it is more suitable for you to be the boss." ”

Hearing this, Hua Jackal's eyes narrowed into a slit, and he secretly scolded this kid in his heart for being really bad enough, but in a blink of an eye, he had an idea, "Boy, don't talk nonsense, my eldest brother has taken a fancy to your sword, and it's easy to hand it over quickly, if you dare to say a word, my eldest brother's steel knife is not a vegetarian." Hearing this, the big black man immediately turned his face, "Yes, boy, you have to keep that sword." ”

Sheng Xuan saw that the black man had finally lost his patience, and originally wanted to provoke him with words to make them fight among themselves, but now it seemed that there was no hope, so he stood up and shouted with his sword, "Hey, let me ask a question, if you can answer me, I will keep this sword, if you can't answer, then I'm not welcome." ”

Hearing this, Hua Jackal's eyes lit up suddenly, "Then tell me what your problem is?" "It's very simple, what does the girl you are chasing look like?" "The little girl is wearing a blue robe, and she is carrying a few huge bees, and she is holding a gold wire in her hand, and she hurts several of our brothers as soon as she makes a move, why did you see her?"

Hearing this, Sheng Xuan couldn't help but be shocked, this is clearly Cai'er, why did she start with these people? Could it be that these people also want to rob her, then they really found the right person, and couldn't help but gloat, "I'm very dissatisfied with your answer, so this sword, let me ask you a few more questions, in what direction did she go? When did she pass? How did she start with you?"

"Just now, our big brother Hua Jackal saw that she was good-looking, so he wanted to take her back to be a lady of the village, who knew that she suddenly started to move, and injured several of our brothers at once, when we were busy running for our lives only to see her coming in this direction, so we called my brother to chase down. It was an ordinary horse thief who spoke, and the flower jackal couldn't help but change his face when he heard this, and glared at him fiercely, and the black man was also extremely angry, and couldn't help but roar, "I didn't expect your kid to do such a bad thing." ”

Sheng Xuan couldn't help but be angry when he heard that they wanted to rob the sex, Cai'er was only how old she was, and she was only fourteen years old, and they actually had the idea of a little girl, so she waved at the flower jackal, "Okay, you come and get the sword, I think you are the only one in your group who is qualified to be the first to feel its sharpness." ”

Hearing this, Hua Jackal was immediately very happy, but at the same time a little nervous, because he knew that Sheng Xuan's skills were far above him, so he shouted to him, "You throw your sword on the ground." ”

As soon as Sheng Xuan let go, the sword was inserted into the soil with a stabbing sound, and then slowly took a step back, the flower jackal saw this and hurriedly rushed up, and the body was about to pull out the sword with a crooked hand, but Sheng Xuan suddenly jumped up and grabbed the sword in front of him, and then raised his hand with a sword, only to see a purple bucket flash, and the flower jackal was divided into two halves.

Suddenly, this group of horse thieves was in chaos, and when the black man saw that his men were killed, he immediately shouted, "Boy, you actually killed my brother in front of me, this is to get along with our lone wolf horse gang, and the brothers cut him down with me." "Swinging the big knife, he was about to rush up and fight hard, but he saw that there were more than a dozen people who saw that the flower jackal was killed, and saw that Shengxuan was so strong, and the black man wanted to run away, and when the black man saw this, he immediately roared, "Aren't you a few WBD with the flower jackal?" Why are you going to run away when you see him killed, is it still a man, stop them for me and don't let them run, such an unrighteous villain, can't let them go out and ruin our reputation." ”

Suddenly there was a big chaos among the horse thieves, it seems that they were also a little festive, and when they heard the shout of the eldest brother, they immediately moved their hands.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Sheng Xuan rushed up to kill the dozen or so people under Hua Jackal, but he heard the black man shouting, "Don't move!" and then said to Sheng Xuan, "Brother, I know that we have encountered stubble today, we are not your opponents, I hope you can raise your hand and let my brother pass, you will take my life if you want." ”

As soon as he heard this, Sheng Xuan was a little embarrassed, if these people resisted, it would be easy to do it, just kill them, but now the big black man actually pleaded for his brother, and wanted to exchange his own death for his brother's life, so it can be seen that this person is not a traitor, but it makes him feel a little good.

"Are you from the Saren tribe or the Chi tribe?" Hearing this, the black man was suddenly shocked, "Seeing that you are not from the grassland, how do you also know these two tribes? We are not, these two tribes are our enemies, and we are all survivors of the small tribes that they have robbed, and later gathered together to organize a horse gang, the purpose is to seek revenge on them." ”

It turned out to be like this, Sheng Xuan couldn't help but move in his heart, it seems that he can find a good helper for Bale, although these people are not from a clean background, but this black man is quite righteous, even people like Hua Jackal suffer losses, he is willing to take people to avenge them, but this person's mind is really bad, and it is easy to be instigated by bad people.

So he told the black man about the current situation, and then told him, "I have a brother who is also from the steppe, and he also has a force now, and now he is preparing to defect to the king of Zari Khan, I wonder if you are interested in doing it with my brother, brother?"

The big black man was a little embarrassed, and said hesitantly, "I'm afraid that the background of our people can't accept it." ”

"It doesn't matter, my brother's name is Bale, as long as you can find him, it is Ye Shengxuan who told you to go to him, and he will definitely accept it. Hearing this, the black man immediately blushed, "What are you talking about? Bale? Is it Bale of the Aslan Division? That's a hero of our grassland, he doesn't know how many grassland men's lives he has saved over the years, if he can really throw himself under his men, it would be great." ”

Hearing this, Sheng Xuan was stunned for a moment, although he was friends with Bale, he had never asked him which tribe he was, but he felt that what the black man said should be him, so he nodded, and the black man suddenly cheered when he saw it, this kind of rectum really said what it was.

Immediately, the big black man turned around and shouted to his brothers, "Do you hear? This brother is going to introduce us to the Balak heroes of the Aslan tribe, brothers, our hard days have finally come to an end, and we will set off." As he spoke, he was about to take someone away, and Sheng Xuan hurriedly shouted, "Wait, I still have something to ask you." ”

"What's the matter?" "I want to ask, the environment here, and you should be familiar with the desert, I want to cross the desert I wonder if you can help me show me a good way." ”

"What! You're going to cross the desert? That can't be, the desert is thousands of miles long, and the harsh conditions are not to mention that the coyotes on the edge of the desert are enough for you. "You don't have to worry about that, you just tell me how to get there." "Well, you just have to follow this river for another hundred miles to enter the desert, and you must be careful when the river disappears, because there are coyotes there." ”

The coyote is not afraid, the key is that he is afraid that he will not find the way to delay the time, and now that the route has been solved, Sheng Xuan did not hesitate, went over to take his horse, turned over, and then said to the black man, "There will be a period later!" and then galloped along the river valley.
