"You have to believe in the national teacher." He Lingchuan pouted in the direction of Sun Fuping, "The dignified national teachers are all in danger, you and I have some confidence?" ”

Sun and Nian walked in the front, opening a long distance from He Lingchuan, and there were more than ten rows of soldiers in the middle.

The new group of bandits was not taken seriously by them at all.

Situ Han looked at their backs: "Can they hear me when I speak?" ”

"Don't worry, definitely not." He Lingchuan himself doesn't remember how many bad things he said about the previous two.

Only then did Situ Han whisper: "These two people are really arrogant, and if they encounter danger after entering the desert, I am afraid that our lives will not be at stake." He Dashao, for the sake of the Chinese New Year every year, you have to take more care of our brothers. More than 30 of us came out to work hard, and there are more than 100 women and children in Bishan! If we die, they won't even be able to drink the porridge. ”

Although he called killing people and selling goods hard work, his expression was still very sincere.

Write all the worries on your face.

"Yes." He Lingchuan comforted him, "I will keep an eye on you and prevent him from sending you to death in vain." ”

When he walked away, He Chunhua asked his eldest son: "What does he mean by saying that it is for the sake of the New Year?" ”

"Every Chinese New Year, doesn't he come to us to greet the New Year?" The most important thing is that every time he celebrates the New Year, Situ Han will prepare a generous gift for He Dashao. For example, last year, what he gave to He Lingchuan was a string of pearl necklaces, each bead was almost the same size, round and bright.

That's right, it's the string that He Lingchuan transferred to Uncle Hao.

What was sent the year before last? Well, I can't remember.

Of course, there is no need to tell Daddy about these small things.

He Chunhua looked at him and shook his head, the stinky boy was reckless, and he was never soft when he received gifts.

Blackwater City, He House.

Although there were only two people left in the family, Mrs. Ying still explained that the kitchen cooked carefully and put a total of seven dishes on the table, and the meal was more hearty than usual.

But she actually didn't have much appetite, so she drank a small half bowl of yellow rice porridge, and He Yue only took two bites of the flower rolls she gave her, so she stopped eating.

"Yue'er, where do you think your father has gone now?" He Chunhua left, as if she had taken her soul away, Mrs. Ying couldn't sleep at night, and her delicate makeup couldn't cover her haggardness.

"I guess I've passed a few stops." He Yue comforted her, "Zeng Feixiong is familiar with the desert, and he has Sun Guoshi's town, so my father and brother will definitely be able to rush back before the arrival of the wild sand season." ”

Mrs. Ying sighed: "It is said that your brother is a lucky general, and you must not drop the chain this time." ”

He Yue sounded weird, and his mother didn't seem to blame his father for taking away his brother?

Mrs. Ying asked about the affairs of Qiansong County again, and He Yue said that he could handle it.

Finally, she asked, "Still no news from the east?" ”

"Nope. The flood blocked the way, and besides, the fighting in the east was fierce, and the rebels killed the spies when they caught them, and the messengers did not dare to go there. ”

In fact, he didn't need his father to explain it again and again, he would also pay attention to the information in the east.

Unfortunately, there is no news now.

By the second day, there was yellow sand on the left and right, up and down, and there was not even a living thing to be seen.

This short stretch of Red Cliff Road leads to the former Panlong Ancient City, and no caravans will go there at all.

Everyone cherishes every step, because such a smooth road is coming to an end.

"No way." News came from the front of the line.

The father and son of the He family looked east, and they could still see the huge base of half of the mountain slanting upward, like a dagger stuck in the sky.

The first half collapsed nearly a hundred years ago and smashed on the Red Cliff Road where the team was supposed to travel.

Endless mountain rocks, turning it into a guillotine road.

Zeng Feixiong muttered, "I don't know if it's the will of heaven." "Don't let the sleeping spirits in the city be disturbed by those who come after them.

"How can there be so much wishful thinking?" Nian Songyu sneered and ordered everyone, "Get off the horse, we have to lighten the burden." ”

There was no road ahead, and the horses were useless. Each man prepared five days' worth of dry food and water, and gave the horses to a few men who accompanied the army.

Situ Han stared at the endless desert.

The undulating sand dunes are so clean and neat that there are not even half footprints.

"What's next? One step away from Red Cliff Road, we will all be eaten! ”

"Of course not, don't you sand bandits know best?" Nian Songyu blocked him with a word.

Situ Han sneered. As people who have lived in the Panlong Desert for most of their lives, they are very clear about the local taboos, and they also have their own cautions and tricks.

Nian Songyu pointed to the desert: "Tell me, how to go without Hongya Road?" I think you have some experience, too. ”

"First of all, all the adults put away the social order, and you must not show it, let alone activate it!" There are many officials in this group.

Nian Songyu sighed: "Why? ”

"The heroic spirits in the desert were all defending the borders of their homeland before their deaths, and we walked in wearing the social orders of other countries, didn't we deliberately plant flags and pull hatred? These things are all tendons, you can hide and hide, don't provoke! ”

There is some truth. Sun Fuping explained to the officials: "Collect the kite money, don't show it." ”

Then Situ Han said: "Are we going to Panlong Ancient City?" It's still a long way to go, and it's impossible to walk there alone. I can't help it. ”

Sand bandits burrowing into the desert are mostly to escape pursuit or vendettas, and they should be urgently needed, and they will not hike in this kind of place of death if they have nothing to do, which is a long life.

"So, we're going to change the vehicle." Sun Fuping took out three things from his arms.

It was three miniature carved boats, each about an inch long, as if carved from half a walnut. Not to mention the wood grain on the side of the boat, even the folds of the boatman's clothes and the flying hair are all carved to be delicate and delicate.

Just looking at this carving, it can be called a master-level level.

"This is a treasure I borrowed from a friend, and I have to return it when I run out. Okay, all flash! With that, Sun Fuping took out three crystal clear green pills, put them in the right hand raised by the boatman in the boat, and then threw the three walnut boats onto the sand.

Nian Songyu shouted in a low voice: "Xuanjing! ”

Aomaru is the size of a quail egg, and throwing it down seems to knock the walnut boat over. But this was not the case at all, and Aomaru disappeared when he touched the boatman's hand, and the whole boat began to tremble strangely, as if something was about to run out.

Everyone is not stupid, they have avoided it in advance.

Sure enough, the walnut boat expanded at an alarming rate, and its volume increased exponentially. In just two breaths, the original one-inch-long toy has become a wooden boat more than five feet long and one foot high!

They were parked on the yellow sand, and the original walnut boat was enlarged in its original proportions, and of course the boatman standing on the bow of the boat became a normal human size, and came over to lower the gangway so that the passengers could board the ship.
