Chapter 63: If you are obedient, you will have meat to eat
The shackles around their necks seemed to make the wolves uncomfortable, and they shook their necks as if to shake them off, but no matter how much they struggled, it was to no avail.
"Don't struggle and can't run away, give me an honest way forward."
"Whew! Oh! The head wolf glared at Su Ying angrily.
Su Ying raised her eyebrows, sneered contemptuously, pulled the leash on her hand, and the wolves wailed.
Those wild wolves wanted to run away, but as soon as they moved, the lock ring around their necks would emit electricity and they had to return to the team, so they could only let Su Ying lead them forward, like a dog!
The head wolf glared at Su Ying angrily, his eyes seemed to be greatly humiliated, but there was nothing he could do.
Su Ying grinned, "Be obedient, I'll give you a bite of meat to eat, go." ”
Because with two injuries, Su Ying's speed was not fast, and according to her current speed, she should be able to join the team before they arrived at Yanxi Pass.
In order to speed up the progress, Li Da asked the prisoners to get up and prepare to go before dawn.
"Master Guan, do you still have any water, I haven't drunk water for two days, please give us some water."
Some prisoners got up from the ground with great difficulty and pleaded.
"I, I don't have any water, the official gives us a sip of water to drink."
The official said viciously: "There is no water, there is no water in the bucket, if you don't want to die of thirst on this Gobi Desert, get up and hurry away." ”
"What? No more water? ”
This bad news spread in the team in an instant, and now it will take several days to get to Yanxi Pass, if there is no water now, how will they get through?
Xiao Shen listened to the news from the front, and asked Cheng Ming to ask everyone to protect their water bags, when Su Ying was there, their buckets and water bags were full, this was probably the only little water left in the entire team, if the prisoner was thirsty
It is not known what it will do.
"It's sir, I'll let everyone put away all the water bags first."
Xiao Shen nodded, "Don't cook on the fire for the time being before you arrive at Yanxi Pass, everything is based on dry food." ”
If people see that they still have water for cooking, they will definitely think that they still have a lot of water in their hands now, and it is easy to get upset.
"Understood."
Everyone knew that there was no water in the bucket pushed by the official, and they couldn't help but panic, and they were all worried that they would die of thirst on the road, so on the next journey, even if many people were thirsty, they didn't want to drink more than the only remaining water in the water bag.
Li Da only had a water bag left in his hand, and if he followed the previous path, it would be impossible to hold out to Yanxi Pass.
"Lao Huang, you have also walked through this part of the Gobi Desert many times, do you think you can go that way?"
The official called Lao Huang let out a breath of turbidity, he was much older than Li Da, and he would be able to retire and recuperate after this trip, otherwise the leader of the team this time would not be Li Da's turn, and he knew more about the terrain of the Northern Wasteland.
"You want to approach the road?"
Li Da wrinkled his brows and said, "If you don't leave, we will all have to die, and I will have most of the bags of water left, and I won't be able to hold on." As he spoke, he reached for Lao Huang's water bag and shook it, and there was less water in it than his.
"It's in the center of the sand, and you have to watch out for the quicksand under your feet, so you won't be afraid of dying there?"
"But if we go there, the distance we can reach Yanxiguan can be shortened to at least less than two days, as long as we can reach our destination in less than two days, we will be able to reach it without stopping."
Lao Huang disagreed, the risk of walking into the road was much more terrible than not having water, "Don't be reckless, that place is not something you can walk out of." ”
Li Da gritted his teeth and looked at the prisoners at the back of the team: "Those people wearing chains, one by one, it's not easy to mess with, if they run out of water on the road, do you think they will let us go?" Kill people and drink blood to quench their thirst, and they can't do it! Telescoping is a knife, it's better to give it a go! ”
Lao Huang still disagreed, he still wanted to persuade again, Li Da seemed to have made up his mind, he opened the map and looked at it, and when the team came to a fork in the road, he walked towards the fork in the road without hesitation.
Lao Huang looked at the unsuspecting crowd, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and he could only grit his teeth to keep up.
Not long after the team continued to walk, Xiao Ember noticed a change in the environment, there was more sand and gravel on the ground than before, and the wind was stronger.
He called the children who were still playing with the cows and sheep to the car, and even the sheep were tied to the side of the carriage with ropes and pulled the cart with the oxen, "Uncle He, get on the car, let them move their positions, and everyone go to the car." ”
He Shouyi traveled south and north, and also realized that the situation was wrong, so he quickly packed up his things and went to the carriage behind.
Because everyone got into the carriage, the carriage suddenly became crowded.
Aunt Sun's space, which was not spacious, became even smaller.
"Whatever you come to the car, and you don't see who you are?"
"Get out of here if you don't like it." He Shouyi had long been unaccustomed to seeing Aunt Sun, if it weren't for Wang Lang's face, he would have slapped him a long time ago.
Aunt Sun was not happy to be reprimanded, and wanted to say more but was stopped by her daughter-in-law Zhou, "Mother, you just say a few words." ”
Although Zhou felt in his heart that Xiao Ember had harmed them like this, but the matter had come to this point, it was obvious that their life with Xiao Ember was much better than before, and she was also content, at least her husband didn't have to die, but Aunt Sun was like this, she was worried that something would happen sooner or later.
Aunt Sun raised her hand unhappily and slapped Zhou in the face, "The old lady can't talk about your cheap embryo to interject, if it weren't for your Kefu, would your husband be unlucky?" ”
"Mother, you're enough, if you want to sprinkle like this again, you will go down!" Wang Lang saw that Zhou's face was red when he was beaten, and he was also angry.
"Why, I didn't do it for your own good, if I hadn't found you, you'd have died."
Wang Lang frowned, "Just say a few words, the prince and they don't owe me, I follow the prince and share the honor and disgrace with him, I don't regret it." ”
"You're stupid!" Aunt Sun saw that the people in the car were glaring at her angrily, and she silenced.
Suddenly, there was a burst of dust, and the curtain of the carriage rattled, and a lot of sand and dust was blown into the carriage.
Tian Mu tried his best to control the reins so that the cattle and sheep would not be blinded by the wind and sand.
But in the next moment, the wind and sand covered the sky and the sun and invaded them, and for a while, it was difficult for them to see the team in front of them.
Tian Mu was a little panicked for a while, he couldn't help but speed up, and finally saw Xiao Yan and their carriage.
At this moment, there was an exclamation in front of the team mixed with the strong wind, because they could not go to the front to check the situation because of the blinding wind and sand.
Xiao Shen looked at the wind and sand in the sky, turned inside the carriage and found a long rein and handed it to Cheng Ming, "Stop the car first, and take the rope to bind the two cars together." ”
Cheng Yang jumped out of the carriage with the reins, and disappeared into the wind and sand in a blink of an eye.
