Da Da Da ......

The sun was setting, the wind was whining, and the vast wilderness of the Gobi could not be seen at a glance, only a team of men and horses dragged a long line of smoke and dust, which became the only bright color in this endless wilderness.

It was Lu Zheng who took Ning Kun, Xu Hu, Song Yuan, Xu Yong and two other experienced players on the way to Dasai in Western Xinjiang.

Bailong Mountain is hundreds of miles away from Dasai in Western Xinjiang, and it takes at least two days to ride a horse one way.

And this time, Ning Kun, who followed Lu Zheng to Dasai in Western Xinjiang, mainly aimed to open up the black market trading channels that were previously mastered by Shi Longwu, so he didn't bring too many mountain goods, and his feet were not slow.

In addition to a small number of dangerous roads on the long road, there are more boundless Gobi wilderness, not to mention the dangers that may be faced, even if there is a map route, it is a big problem to distinguish the direction, once you get lost in the vast Gobi, you can't find a safe foothold, the danger level will rise in a straight line.

But fortunately, Ning Kun and the other two men had many business experiences, and Lu Zheng and his party traveled for most of the day, but there was no deviation in the route, and they did not encounter any danger.

"Phew—"

After a long time of driving, the people on horseback were fine, but the horses under their crotch were already sweating and exhausted, and when a leeward dirt slope appeared in front of him, Lu Zheng suddenly raised his hand to signal.

The crowd slowed down and drove the tired horses to the vicinity of the dirt slope, where they dismounted and fed with water.

"Oops......"

When he first set off, he was still elated, and after the excitement, Xu Yong, who was listless, got off the horse, moving his stiff lower body and grinning his teeth.

"Why Xiaoyong, do you regret coming out with you?"

In comparison, Lu Zheng, who also simply learned equestrianism for a few days, jumped off the horse, because of the strength of his physique, he didn't feel much discomfort at all, but the horse under his crotch was tired enough.

"No, no ......"

Xu Hu and Song Yuan also laughed, and Xu Yong denied it repeatedly:

"Brother Lu, the sun is about to set, where will we settle down in a while?"

At this moment, the sun has set in the west, and it will be dark in less than an hour, Lu Zheng took out the map in his arms and estimated:

"According to the footsteps, we should have walked more than 300 miles, and a few dozen miles further on, there was an abandoned post station, which could be used as a foothold. ”

"Yes, every time we go on our way, we have to stop at the abandoned inn. ”

Ning Kun, who was feeding the horses, turned around and explained:

"But we have to hurry, we must find it before it gets dark, or we will be in danger when it gets dark and we can't tell the way. ”

The other two experienced men nodded approvingly.

In today's world, there are many evils, and the night is always more dangerous than the day, in addition to the fact that people will inexplicably turn into evil demons in their sleep, there is also the threat of evil beasts such as evil and alien species.

This seemingly uninhabited wilderness Gobi is also likely to be roamed by this kind of demonic monster formed by the aberration of wild beasts, once they don't find a safe place to stay at night, they will directly sleep in this wilderness, and the danger factor will undoubtedly rise in a straight line.

However, in comparison, Xu Yong was a little unimpressed:

"No matter what kind of demons and monsters he is, he is not afraid of Brother Lu!"

You stinky brother, don't flag me......

The corners of Lu Zheng's mouth twitched.

Knowing that there are still hundreds of evil disasters that kill and injure hundreds of people at every turn, he will not be blindly confident, and he still has the greatest vigilance against this kind of thing that cannot be judged by common sense:

"Rest for a quarter of an hour, and we'll go!"

For everyone, Lu Zheng is the absolute backbone, so naturally there will be no doubts. After watering and feeding the horses, and resting for a while, everyone turned over and mounted their horses and continued on their way.

The sun was gradually setting, the light was getting dimmer and dim, and after the group hurried for dozens of miles again, they finally saw in the distance at the end of the wilderness in front of them when the sky began to darken, and a small piece of building sat alone.

The foothold has been found, and everyone is in a slightly relaxed mood.

Soon, everyone galloped all the way to the abandoned inn.

Lu Zheng swept his eyes and found that the outside of the abandoned post station was surrounded by a half-collapsed earthen wall, and inside was a weathered and collapsed ruins, but behind the ruins was a dilapidated and leaky earthen building, and two rows of small earthen houses without doors and windows on the left and right.

But what made him, and everyone vigilant, was that in the largest dilapidated earth building, there was a little light and smoke wafting out, as if someone was already inside!

Finding such a situation, Xu Hu, who was also coming out for the first time, suddenly said in a low voice: "How can there be someone inside?"

Lu Zheng's eyes narrowed on horseback, and he asked without looking back:

"Ning Kun, will anyone else come to this place?"

Ning Kun also didn't expect that there would be someone in the post station, so he immediately frowned and said in a low voice:

"There will indeed be people coming, the location of the post station is also the middle of the way between the Western Xinjiang Dasai and another city, Heimu City, and we have met other people when we have settled here before.

However, in this world, the vast majority of people who can walk outside are people who are armed with force, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil, so we had better be careful. ”

For a moment, the rest of the people couldn't help but get slightly nervous.

Indeed, as Ning Kun said, there are very few ordinary people in this world who go out on a long journey, and no matter how bad they are, they will be accompanied by martial arts masters, and if they encounter some robbers and bandits in it, it will undoubtedly be a trouble.

"Yes......"

Lu Zheng smiled playfully, turned over and dismounted:

"Let's go, let's go in. ”

With such a fierce person as Lu Zheng, everyone naturally had nothing to fear, so they immediately turned over and dismounted, led the horses and walked inside.

Today's Lu Zhengyi is bold, he carried a knife and walked directly into the largest earthen building, and his eyes swept away.

The area of the earth building is not small, not to mention hundreds of square meters, it is a mess inside, and there are traces of burnt bonfires in many places, which seem to be left by the people who settled in the past.

And at this moment, in a corner of the lobby, a small iron pot is scorching on the fire, exuding a faint medicinal fragrance.

Behind the fire, there was a man dressed in a black short beat, who was not good-looking, and behind him a black-robed woman with a pale face and a serious illness shrunk in the corner of the wall, holding a long knife in her hand, and said with a nervous expression:

"...... you?"

Seeing that there were only two people suspected of being husband and wife in this huge post station, Ning Kun was slightly surprised and said:

"Don't be nervous, we are a caravan going to the Western Xinjiang Dasai to conduct business, not some robbers and horse bandits, are there only two of you here?"

Ning Kun's tone was quite kind, but the man did not relax, and said in a low voice:

"That's right, it's just us. Our husband and wife are from Blackwood City, she is suffering from a serious disease, but the famous doctors who have visited the whole city are difficult to treat, and I can't afford to hire a guard guard, so I can only take her to Dasai in the western Xinjiang to seek medical treatment alone. ”

Glancing at the woman who was blocked behind the man, Ning Kun felt that the two of them didn't look like any threat, and nodded to Lu Zheng.

"Let's go and set up the horses first. ”

Lu Zheng glanced at the man who was protecting his wife with an expressionless face, turned around and led everyone out of the earthen house.

"This man is really affectionate. ”

Xu Yong followed behind Lu Zheng's ass and couldn't help whispering:

"I look at his posture, his martial arts are not very good, and he dares to travel thousands of miles with his wife alone to seek medical treatment, it's really ......"

"Who said his martial arts were bad?"

Lu Zheng, who was walking in front, sneered:

"I don't think it's just martial arts, but the courage of this couple is not bad!"
