Why cross the Sha'er Sea?

This is for the sake of shortcuts.

Crossing the Sha'er Sea, you only need to drive for two days to reach Huguo Temple. But if they take a detour, they will go to Blackwater City, and they will almost have to make a detour to a big river loop. It is said during the Qin Dynasty to bypass most of Henan.

The river is the river of great rivers.

South is the south of the great river.

On the contrary, Henan in later generations was either called the land of Shandong or the Central Plains. Henan, until the Yuan Dynasty, there is a saying that Henan Province is a province.

It takes at least more than a month to walk around such a large circle. And the road is not necessarily much easier than the desert. Although the desert is dangerous, the desert is also large and small. The Sea of Sand is a desert that has been subjugated by man. Take this road, it's not dangerous, it's fast.

Li Kui turned his head to look at Li Bingqian and asked, "You won't be dead, right?" ”

"I don't know, I haven't experienced it." Li Bingqian shook his head suddenly, but the horror on his face couldn't be concealed: "But I heard that as soon as the sandstorm in the desert came, it was overwhelming. You can bury people alive at every turn. However, the monks of Huguo Temple do not seem to be worried, as if they are very experienced.

"They go a lot, of course they have experience!" Ruda dissatisfied.

Li Kui frowned and thought about it, if it was hot today, if all the water was controlled, it might be able to put these hundreds of people in a desperate situation. But what to do?

Li Kui and Luda are prisoners and must not carry weapons. This was made before Li Kui was captured, and he had already made a decision not to leave any weapons behind, giving Wei Ming Deyuan a chance to doubt. This trick is not clever, but it is also a precautionary measure, and Wei Ming Deyuan's suspicion is very serious. Just because he was suspicious of Li Bingqian, he decisively controlled Li Bingqian, which shows that it is almost impossible to gain his trust.

Since you can't fool people, you can only control people.

Li Kui suddenly asked Li Bingqian: "Does he have a troop transfer talisman for the Black Water Military Division?" ”

Li Bingqian was shocked and asked, "How do you know?" ”

"If he is just an ordinary monk, even if he is the emperor's own uncle, how can you keep compromising in order to win him over? You're not that kind of person at all, and unless he has something you covet, you'll keep compromising it. Li Kui didn't give Li Bingqian the slightest face, but said bluntly: "This is an opportunity, in the sandstorm, many people are too busy to take care of themselves, this is our chance to act." ”

"No, there is a warrior Turda by the side of the national teacher, who is born with divine power. It's the big man with the vajra, and if you don't get close, you will be discovered. ”

"Then will the talisman be on the body of Wei Ming Deyuan?"

Li Bingqian was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "I don't know, but such an important token, in addition to carrying it on his body, I really want to figure out where he will put it." ”

Li Bingqian objected to Li Kui's risk, and a deep fear appeared on his face.

"Seventh Prince, the national teacher will let you go."

Just as Li Kui was about to tell Li Bingqian that he was just a fierce general, he and Luda could deal with whatever they wanted. Of course, in the case of weapons at hand.

But at this moment, Ye Lijian, a disciple of the national teacher, came over and called Li Bingqian.

Then, he glanced at Li Kui and Luda with a smile. That kind of pitying gaze, as if looking at a fool.

For the experienced Tangut people, they have experienced a lot of sandstorms, so they naturally have a set of ways to protect themselves. But Li Kui and Luda, the two Song people, may have seen a sandstorm for the first time in their lives. If you're unlucky, it's the last time you'll see a sandstorm.

Li Kui didn't look flustered at all, he was just the kind of person who hadn't experienced a sandstorm to survive, but knew the power of a sandstorm. He continued to play dumb, smiling like an ignorant fool at Yeligian, who shook his head and left. There's no intention of reminding you at all.

When the people were far away, Li Kui instructed Luda: "When the sandstorm comes, we will do it." ”

Luda rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "I've been waiting for your words for a long time, I'm afraid that I will be dragged to the temple by that old monk, if I can't leave in this life, wouldn't it be the end?" ”

Li Kui whispered to Luda for a solution.

Quite simply, they took the opportunity to puncture all the water bladders in the team, and then they pulled the camels out of the camp in the sandstorm. Of course, there are a few guides that need to be captured.

Ruda was a little dissatisfied with this arrangement, but still obeyed Li Kui's orders.

He prefers to snatch the weapon and kill it directly, first killing the guy called Torta to death, and then most of the others will be frightened. But Li Kui didn't think much of it.

He has a lot of experience in fighting cottage black, and he knows that the mountain king among the thieves is powerful, but the minions are really easy to deal with. As long as the king of the mountain is dead, the minions can immediately kneel down and shout to him: "Grandpa! ”

But the party members, especially the guards of the national division.

This kind of trick is not enough.

If the national teacher is in danger, everyone in the guard will probably rush over like crazy, because if the national teacher does not come, they will die, and even affect their families. Had to fight hard. No matter how powerful Li Kui and Luda are, in the face of the Zealot Guards soldiers who don't want to die, or even exchange injuries for injuries, even if they can escape, most of them will be injured. Knife wounds and arrow wounds, in the absence of medicine, to recover from healing, which is almost impossible in enemy countries.

can only find an opportunity, find an opportunity that makes Wei Ming Deyuan have to fall into a dilemma.

And the sandstorm is undoubtedly a good opportunity.

It's just that Li Kui is a little panicked, although he said it simply. But I haven't experienced sandstorms either. A man ran towards the place where the camel tracks.

"Brother, help, move a seat to me!"

"This master, I see that your bones are strange!"

"General, the villain is all protected by you!"

……

Almost all of them answered –.

But Li Kui was not discouraged, and in the short time he waited for the sandstorm to strike, he had already found himself a knife and a dagger. also quietly killed two people. He didn't dare to make a big move, for fear of arousing the vigilance of Wei Ming Deyuan.

In this camp, there is only one place, Li Kui and Luda did not go.

This is where Wei Ming Deyuan, the Western Xia national teacher, stays.

After all, they are relatives, although Li Bingqian was suspected by the famous Deyuan, Li Bingqian was treated preferentially and was arranged by the famous Deyuan by his side. Enjoy the shelter of the camel.

In fact, like everyone else, they are lying on the leeward side of the camel, waiting for the sandstorm to come.

Whew-

The sky is like a ghost crying wolf, and it is like the galloping of thousands of troops. The sandstorm finally came upon them. Li Kui kicked a monk whose neck he had broken out of the camel's shelter, and soon the man was buried by the sandstorm.

This made Li Kui a little worried, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, remembering the direction of the camp. Stick to the ground and start crawling. Sneaking up on the nearest camel, he first punctured the water bladder tied to the camel's back, and then glanced at the Tangut lying on the ground, pretending to be a dead dog, and he did all this, and no one else found out.

And the gray dust around him really helped him a lot.

Ruda is also in action, not only piercing the water bladder, but also secretly killing two camels. People also killed a few, and this kind of secret poking and poking quickly made him like it. In the past, he liked to be upright in everything, watching the other party's eyes move, and attacking with the most upright means.

But......

That kind of hard work is now disgusted by him.

sighed in his heart: "It's still an adult." ”

Kill one, and then he continues to lie on the ground, struggling towards the next target.

"Look clearly, it's me!"

"Your Excellency!"

The two of them lay on the ground on the outskirts of the camp and almost killed each other, but fortunately, Li Kui reminded them in time. Be decisive and look for the next target.

The storm lasted a full hour. Because the wind filled everything, it also blocked the actions of Li Kui and Luda, and even the screams of someone dying did not alert people.

When the heavens and the earth calmed down, the sky was still blue, and the sun hung high overhead, scorching the earth. There was finally movement in the camp.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed: "Water bladder, water bladder is punctured!" ”

"My water bladder has also been punctured!"

"Me too!"

"Miley is killed!"

"Wake up!"

"National teacher, the big thing is not good, many people in the camp have been assassinated, and the water bladder has been punctured a lot."

Wei Ming Deyuan looked at Li Bingqian, the latter's face changed slightly, and he smiled bitterly: "Uncle Huang, I have always been by your side." ”

"I didn't ask you." Wei Ming Deyuan glanced at his closest disciple, Ye Lijian: "You go and count the losses, as well as the casualties." When the others left, he then looked at Li Bingqian with unkind eyes, and sneered: "Those two of your subordinates have good means, when the opportunity comes, they will act decisively and in a good manner." Seems to be very loyal to you! ”

"Uncle Huang, do you think they are loyal to me and will not save me?" Li Bingqian said calmly: "Uncle Huang, I said a long time ago that they are the craftsmen of the Song Kingdom, and as for other identities, I don't know anything. ”

"Haha, I don't know anything!"

Wei Mingde was angry about his back molars, and soon, Ye Lijian hurriedly came back and looked at Li Bingqian hesitantly. This made Wei Ming Deyuan very dissatisfied, and snorted coldly: "Before he rebelled, he was still my nephew, and as a royal family, there is no need to shy away from it." ”

This hand seems to be open, but in fact, it is more of a vent of dissatisfaction with Li Bingqian.

"National teacher, it has been investigated, we have killed more than a dozen people. Four people are missing, and six camels are missing. Camels also died quite a bit. And the water bladder......" Yelian Anji suddenly stopped reporting, a little hesitant.

"Say!"

Wei Ming Deyuan warned his disciple impatiently.

Only then did Yeligian speak: "Most of the water bladders of the guards have been punctured, and there is not one in ten. Only our water bladder is still intact. ”

It is easy to guess that Li Kui and Luda are avoiding the people and camels in the core area of several camps in Weiming Deyuan. As for the rest of the periphery and camels, it was not so lucky.

"Good, good! It's really good! ”

This is definitely not Wei Ming Deyuan saying that Li Kui did a good job, and he wants to praise Li Kui and Luda. All along, he thought it was all his nephew's plan.

Unless he uses his own water to share with the guards, he can't get out of the desert unless he leaves the team and leaves the team with a few cronies.

He decided that this was Li Bingqian's plan, and the anger in his heart had already soared to the sky at this time!

And in his heart, he has actually made a decision to leave the team. If you share the water, you may not be able to get out. But leaving the team without any pressure at all.

He is a national teacher.

Not a compassionate monk.

Wei Ming Deyuan said to Ye Lijian: "You go and arrange!" ”

The latter was stunned, then bowed down and said, "Yes, national teacher!" ”
