Chapter 70: Ghosts in the Grotto?
"Wait~"
Lichen suddenly grabbed the reins and turned his head to General Cai.
When General Cai heard this, he hurriedly ordered a stop.
"Mage, what's wrong?"
Lichen frowned: "There is a voice." ”
"Voices?"
General Cai's face was serious, and he hurriedly summoned Hai Dongqing to check.
But after a few breaths, Hai Dongqing landed on his shoulder.
And General Cai's face was full of seriousness: "There are chasing soldiers!" ”
"Look at the clothes, a bit like the sand thieves before me."
"There are quite a few of them, more than thirty riders."
After speaking, he subconsciously looked at Sha Lifei in front of him.
When Sha Lifei heard this, his face was shocked: "It's a sand thief, it's a sand thief!" It must be a sand pirate! ”
"They will report it, if we escape, they will chase and kill like crazy!"
"If they catch it, then that ......"
Before he could finish speaking, General Cai had already given him a cold look.
If you continue to talk about it, it will shake the morale of the army.
"The opponent has the advantage in numbers, you can't fight hard, you can only outwit."
Lichen nodded, agreeing with General Cai's statement.
"If you want to get away, you have to stall for time."
"It's better to go separately."
"Well, that's right!"
General Cai pondered for a moment, and immediately said, "Cut off the fixed ropes for all the supplies." ”
"Then drive all the camels in different directions."
The camels scattered all the supplies were released in order to disperse the power of the sand thieves.
And cut the rope that holds the supplies in place, and the camel will drop the supplies as it walks.
When those sand thieves recover, they will inevitably waste some time.
By the time they had all been collected, they had fled.
His soldiers were also well-trained.
In just two breaths, all the camels carrying the supplies broke into a dozen strands and galloped in all directions.
……
"There are eagles!"
The sand thief led by him is the big man who sharpened his knife before.
He also has an identity, which is the fourth leader of the sand thieves.
Before, after he found out that the sixth man had failed to rob the goods, he hurriedly led people to chase after him.
At this time, I happened to see Hai Dongqing hovering above his head, and a cruel smile curled up at the corner of his mouth at the moment.
"Go~"
As he gave the order, a black shadow suddenly appeared from the sky.
'唳~'
The cry was hoarse and unpleasant.
Everyone looked at a strong, red-eyed vulture, which suddenly flew out of the clouds.
General Cai's face changed: "Not good! ”
The vulture and Hai Dongqing are hostile in themselves.
And General Cai's Hai Dongqing itself has no top feathers, and he is still young, as soon as he sees a vulture, he immediately loses his square inch.
Wow~
A terrible scream resounded through the sky.
As soon as the vulture appeared, it grabbed its sharp claws at Hai Dongqing's wings.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lichen hurriedly summoned the snow.
Wow~
An eagle's cry resounded through the sky.
I saw a green shadow disappear in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, it had come to the vulture's side.
The vulture just glanced at the snow, and then its neck shrank back, and its two wings seemed to suddenly soften, and its body fell sharply.
There is not the slightest hint of war.
The four masters were stunned for a moment, but they didn't expect the vultures, who had always been rampant and domineering in the sand sea, to return defeated.
But he saw clearly just now that the opponent's caravan was in front of him.
"Brothers, they are in front, robbing supplies and eating meat!"
"Woo woo woo~"
"Woo woo woo~"
As soon as they heard the word 'eat meat', these sand thieves seemed to be in a magical barrier.
The camels under the seat 'Zeng' ran out at once, and they were all wild, and their speed was much faster than that of Lichen's party.
"The four masters, they seem to have run away separately!"
When the big man heard this, the corner of his eyes narrowed, and he looked at the sky.
The vultures only dare to wander back in mid-air, unable to see farther.
But you can see more than a dozen clouds of smoke and dust pulled up in the distance.
"Hoo hoo hoo ~ "
The big man suddenly tightened the reins, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Divide your troops and find the supplies first!" ”
"If you find the other party's traces, make a mark along the way, and hang it behind."
"Woo woo woo~"
Two horsemen and one team, each of them scattered.
Each of these people who are digging in the sand sea is the best camel rider.
What he does best is tracking his prey.
"They scattered."
As soon as Lichen's hands turned, two streams of water flew out of the hidden Qiankun bottle on his chest.
The two phases are perfect, turning into a water mirror.
In the mirror is the shared vision of the snow.
Everyone looked fixedly, and saw those bloodthirsty sand thieves, in teams of twos and twos, each chasing the camel with their own troops.
Seeing this, everyone was inspired.
"Finally got rid of it!"
"We should be safe now!"
Only Sha Lifei shook his head: "The sand thief is a wild wolf in the desert. ”
"There's always a way for them to find it."
"No matter how much we run, we can't outrun the palms of their hands."
General Cai frowned when he heard this: "Can't outrun them?" ”
At the moment, he raised his vigilance: "No matter what, we can't relax, we have to move on." ”
At this time, Sha Lifei suddenly said: "Look at the sky, it looks like the wind is going to rise!" ”
Everyone looked up and saw that the endless blue sky just now suddenly had many broken clouds.
It looks like it was scraped from somewhere else.
"Let's find a place to avoid first!"
The sad thing about the sea of sand is that there are strong winds from time to time.
The wind is strong and the dust is all over the sky, not to mention walking, it would be good not to be buried alive.
"Is there a place around here where I can hide from the wind and sand?"
Sha Lifei frowned, his expression was a little hesitant, and after a while, he said, "There is a black grotto ten miles ahead.
However, this black grotto is haunted, and the camel riders do not dare to go there.
We might as well turn around ......"
"Go!"
"Let's go to the Black Grotto."
General Cai gave an order, urging Sha Lifei to change direction.
Sha Lifei's face was full of fear: "Ladies and gentlemen...... It's really haunted...... Or let's go back. ”
"I'd rather be caught by a sand thief than a black grotto."
"Maybe the sand thieves are gone."
As soon as these words came out, General Cai glared at Sha Lifei: "Less nonsense." ”
"Let's go to the Black Grotto."
Sha Lifei's face was bitter, but he still drove the white worms in the direction of the 'Black Grotto'.
On the way, General Cai was a little curious: "What kind of place is this black grotto?" ”
As soon as he heard the name, Sha Lifei felt his scalp tingle.
"Well, we don't know what this black grotto is."
"I just know that it was there before the Great Zhou."
"Legend has it that it seems to be the home of an ancient demon cult."
"I always see people go in, but no one comes out."
General Cai frowned when he heard this, he didn't expect that there would be such a ghost place in the desert.
"There's a tail."
At this moment, Lichen suddenly looked at the shadow in the water mirror.
In the picture, a sand thief follows everyone from a distance, making marks along the way, but there is no intention of getting closer.
"It's a sand pirate! I'll just say I can't get rid of it. ”
"He's making a mark, and a large number of sand thieves will follow the mark!"
"Let's just surrender, maybe there is still a way to live!"
Sharifi was already close to pleading.
