The desert is hot, the sand below is soft and hot, and during the day, the air fluctuates due to the heat, and when you walk in the desert, even if you take a breath, you feel a burning sensation in your lungs.

Fortunately, Brian was familiar with the road, and there were often caravans on the route he led, and the ground was relatively hard, which made the people hurry up a lot, and they also passed through the oasis from time to time along the way, and they could go to the oasis to cool off or rest at noon or evening.

Tang Yin, like everyone else, couldn't stand the heat of the desert, and often walked for only one morning, and the clothes on his body were soaked with sweat.

On this day, on the third day of entering the desert, Tang Yin and the others were a little tired, and when they went forward, there was a boundless desert, and they couldn't even see the shadow of Duki City. Tang Yin rode his horse and hurried a few steps, caught up with Brian who was walking in front, and asked, "Brian, how many days do you have to walk before you can get out of the desert?"

Brian smiled, wiped the sweat from his face, and said, "It's almost there." If all goes well, we will be out of the desert tomorrow afternoon, and we will be able to reach Dooky City in the evening!"

"Oh!" Tang Yin said lightly, looking at the fiery sun overhead, "It looks like it's going to be noon, we have to find a place to rest." ”

"Yes!" Brian nodded, looked forward, and said quietly, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be an oasis ahead with a small lake in it." ”

"Huh?" Tang Yin suddenly became interested when he heard this, in the past few days in the desert, there are many oases passing by, but he has never seen a lake in it, he smiled: "We don't have much water with us, if the lake is fresh water, we can just replenish it!"

Brian laughed, "If the small lake is still there, it must be fresh water in it." ”

The lake in the desert can walk, because too much groundwater is formed, it may appear here today, it may appear elsewhere tomorrow, of course, its movement is also regular, and those who are familiar with the desert can find the freshwater lakes hidden in the desert through the transformation of the assembly.

At this time, Shauna also rode over, like everyone else, her armor was all off, wearing a simple white dress, at this time her white face was full of sweat beads, she took a sweat towel to wipe the sweat on the neck of the runner from time to time, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "If I can't find a place to take a bath, my body is about to rot!"

Brian, shaking his head and smiling bitterly, said, "Your Royal Highness, water in the desert is more expensive than gold, even if there is lake water in the oasis in front, I'm afraid ...... It's not enough for Her Royal Highness the princess to take a bath. ”

"What? Not even enough water for a bath? What kind of lake is that?" Shauna asked, widening her eyes.

Brian whispered, "Her Royal Highness will know when we get there." ”

When Shauna heard this, her face suddenly showed disappointment.

Tang Yin sighed, took out his water bladder with his hand, and handed it to Xiao Na. The latter was not polite, but the water bladder, pulled out the lid, and drank two large sips in a row.

Brian was right, there was indeed an oasis ahead, but when Tang Yin and his party arrived here, there were other people inside, and a caravan of considerable size was resting in it.

There are as many as two or three hundred people in this caravan, and there are more than one hundred and sixty or seventy Luo Pai Tuo alone for carrying goods, and seeing the arrival of Tang Yin and his party, the caravan personnel who were originally sitting on the ground to rest have stood up one after another, and many of them have touched their hands on the saber like a drug test.

The desert sand bandits are rampant, and Tang Yin and some people are all riding horses and galloping quickly, and people who don't know the inside story really can't see what their identities are.

When Tang Yin and the others approached the oasis, both sides could clearly see each other's appearances, and the people on the other side of the caravan were stunned. Most of Tang Yin and the others are windy faces, which are very different from the nature of the Morphis Federation. At this time, two middle-aged men in their early forties walked out of the caravan, who looked like the leaders of the caravan, and the two of them looked at Tang Yin and the others and asked politely, "Excuse me, who are you..." ”

Brian urged him forward and said with a smile, "We're from Besa, and we're going to Dookie City!"

"Oh!" Hearing this, everyone in the caravan breathed a sigh of relief, and the hand that had been holding the handle of the sword also let go. Listening to Brian's accent is indeed a Bessa accent, yes, among the bandits, there are no Besa people, and the Bessa people, who have always been arrogant, do not bother to be sand bandits. 、

The eyes of the two middle-aged men fell on Tang Yin and the others again, looked up and down curiously, and asked, "...... are they?"

"He ......" Brian was about to speak, Tang Yin leaned over slightly, patted him on the shoulder from behind, interrupted him, and then said with a smile in fluent Morphis, "We are merchants who came through Besa." ”

"Turning through Besa?" The two middle-aged men were stunned for a moment, and then asked in unison, "Then you are the Wind People?" Their faces are all from the Haotian Empire, and the only one from the Haotian Empire who wants to go to Duki through Besa is the Wind Country.

Unexpectedly, the other party could tell where he was, Tang Yin was stunned at first, but reacted quickly, and then nodded and smiled: "That's right, we are wind people!"

"Ah!" The two middle-aged men couldn't help but look at Tang Yin twice, after all, the wind people had come to Du Ji too little, especially the merchants of the Wind Country, who had never seen them before.

"Don't ramble with them, let's get inside!" Shauna turned over and dismounted, urging Tang Yin and Brian as she walked towards the oasis.

This oasis is a small area full of lush poplar trees. The poplar tree is a common tree in the desert, and it is rumored to be immortal for 3,000 years and not rot for 3,000 years after death.

In the middle of the oasis, there is really a small beard, but seeing this small lake, Xiao Na's tears almost came out, saying that it is a small lake, it is better to say that it is a puddle, the length and width are only five or six meters, and the shallow water can be seen at a glance, and it is estimated that the deepest place in the center can only barely pass the surface of the feet, not to mention bathing, it is estimated that if the wind is bigger, this small puddle can be blown dry.

Standing quietly in front of the lake for ten seconds, Shauna turned her head sharply, glared at Brian, and asked, "This is the lake you are talking about?"

Brian shrugged innocently, stepped forward, and whispered, "As I said just now, this lake is definitely not enough for Her Royal Highness the princess to bathe......"

"You're going to die!" Shauna, who no longer had the temperament and restraint of a princess, pushed Brian away in a huff, strode to the foot of a poplar tree, and sat on the ground, her pink cheeks bulging so high.

In the middle of the desert, it would be strange if there was a large lake. Tang Yin didn't have much hope, and he was not disappointed at this time, he smiled and looked at Xiao Na who was sulking under the tree, and then beckoned everyone to fill the water bladder and keep it for backup.

The puddle was small, but there was a spring underneath, and the people filled all the bladders, and they did not see any decrease in the puddle.

Holding a water bladder full of water, Tang Yin took a few sips, feeling that the lake water was sweet and unusually cool, he nodded with satisfaction, and then walked to Xiao Na with the water bladder, sat down next to her, and said, "I really wronged you to let Princess Xiao Na accompany me to suffer!"

Hearing this, Shauna turned her head to look at Tang Yin, and pouted, "I didn't say that I was wronged. ”

"Your expression is written on your face. ”

Shauna pursed her lips and whispered, "It's not that obvious, is it?!" After speaking, she hurriedly explained, "I don't regret going to Dookie with you, it's just..." I just think the road is too difficult to walk.... She hadn't been to Dooki before, she had just heard that she had to go through a very vast desert, but she didn't know anything about the hardships in the desert, and now that she had experienced it herself, she felt that Genshauna pouted and whispered, "It's not that obvious, right?!" After speaking, she hurriedly explained: "I don't regret going to Dookie with you, it's just..." I just think the road is too difficult to walk.... She had never been to Doochy before, but she had heard that she had to cross a vast desert, but she had no idea of the hardships of the desert, and now that she had experienced it herself, she felt that it was not a place where people could live at all.

Looking at Xiao Na who explained seriously, Tang Yin was also very moved in his heart, if it wasn't for helping himself, Xiao Na, who was a princess, wouldn't have to come here to suffer this hardship. He took a deep breath and said slowly: "This time, I owe you a favor, and I will definitely pay you back in the future, no matter what kind of request you make." ”

"Really?" Shauna's eyes lit up.

Tang Yin met her bright gaze, couldn't help but smile, nodded and said affirmatively: "Really." ”

Shauna's mouth was not closed with a smile, her eyes were rolling around, and she smiled: "Then I have to think about it!"

"You can bring it up whenever you want. ”

Her joy was also contagious to Tang Yin, who added with a smile, and the eyes that looked at Shauna became extremely soft. Maybe even Tang Yin himself didn't realize that Xiao Na's joys, sorrows, and sorrows could gradually affect his mood at some point. The promise he made at this time had a great impact on him in the future.

While they were resting, the two middle-aged men in the caravan came over and talked to them, asking them what they were doing at Dookie, and if they had the opportunity to work together.

Brian was very sociable and handled the two middle-aged men with ease.

After eating the dry food and dried meat he carried, and resting for a while, Tang Yin looked at the sun, which had gone westward, and estimated that it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time to continue on the road, and he was about to urge everyone to get on the horse, at this time, there was a burst of horses' hooves in the distance, listening to its sound, it seemed that a large number of horsemen were rushing towards the oasis.

Tang Yin sighed lightly, this place seemed to have become a necessary route in the desert, and caravans and pedestrians coming and going would use this place as a stop. He was about to order everyone to get on their horses, but when he heard someone coming, he sat back on the ground with a smile on his face.

Soon, a dark arrow officer who stayed on the periphery of the oasis to guard quickly ran to Tang Yin's approach, knelt down on one knee, lowered his voice, and said, "My lord, there is a horse team coming outside, but something is wrong, it doesn't look like a caravan or an ordinary pedestrian!"
