The stars hang down and the plains are wide.

Feng Xia looked at the occasional flickering light in the night sky, and didn't think of this poem for no reason.

Of course, it will not be any stars twinkling in the sky, and under the cover of radiant clouds, it is no less difficult for the starlight to reflect the night sky than for Feng Xia and a fifth-order tyrannosaurus to win head-to-head, in layman's terms, it is a pipe dream.

Those rays of light that dotted the sky, not surprisingly, should be the light emitted by the pupils of the third-order desolate beast weeping star birds, and only with them, it was possible for the pupils to emit such a fierce strong light, and even Feng Xia on the ground a thousand meters below could be seen clearly.

And the appearance of the weeping star bird also indicates that Feng Xia is about to enter the inner area of the desert and cannot go any further. The distribution of third-order desolate beasts in the inner area of the desert was far denser than in the edge areas, and it would definitely be a life and death for one to enter it now.

Sighing, Feng Xia carried Ink Sheng and destroyed Ink Painting's original water mist slash array, although it allowed Ink Artist to better exert the power of the Greedy Wolf Flame, but it also made him lose the only ability to cover his whereabouts. After all, although the water mist slash is not very powerful, it is still possible to confuse Wang Xiangyun and the others.

But no matter what, the choice has been made, and there is no reason to regret it. Not to mention.

Feng Xia waved lightly in his hand, looking at a cactus not far away that had grown to almost two people tall due to mutation, and his voice did not fluctuate at all: "Come out, I have already seen you." ”

Behind the cactus, three figures, two large and one small, slowly walked out from behind the cactus.

Feng Xia frowned, and looked at the three people in tattered clothes in front of him with some surprise, originally thought that he had met a bandit who specialized in looting in the wilderness, but he didn't expect to meet three scavengers, and judging from their outfits and the performance of the three people, it seemed that they were still a family of three.

The little girl in the three looked to be only eight or nine years old, although the clothes were quite old and extremely ill-fitting, but her clothes were already the best among the three, in order to shield her from the radiation, her mother even changed a tattered coat for her to put a small hood on her head, although this kind of hood that is difficult to even shade in the desert does not play any protective role against the pervasive radiation, but the little girl looks at it very preciously, when Feng Xia's eyes fall on her, The little girl's first reaction was not to hide behind her mother, but to hold her hood in a panic, looking at Feng Xia's eyes full of complex emotions of vigilance and fear, which made Feng Xia's heart hurt slightly.

As for her parents' clothes, they were much more shabby, and the woman who looked like she was supposed to be the little girl's mother had a torn coat to cover her body, and the man had no other clothes to cover her body except for a rag belt that she had barely wrapped around her waist and picked it up from nowhere.

The woman and the little girl were speechless in horror after Feng Xia drank their whereabouts, and most of the people who walked alone in the wilderness were wilderness hunters, and this kind of people often had tyrannical personalities, plus they were in the wilderness, without any order constraints of human society, and they would kill if they didn't agree or even if they were in a bad mood, which was a common thing for these hunters. The mother and daughter looked like they had seen something similar, so even though Feng Xia looked like he was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, they still cowered and didn't dare to approach him for half a minute.

Only the man was better, probably with the courage of the head of the family. After swallowing his saliva hard, the man glanced at the ink in Feng Xia's hand with some fear, there were still traces of blood left over from the previous hunting of sand wolves that had not been washed, plus Feng Xia's own nearly a month of hunting, escaping, sniping, being betrayed, and running away again, the resentment and evil spirit accumulated by the continuous killing and running away made the man dare not look directly at Feng Xia at all, and it was already his limit to take two steps forward to talk to Feng Xia. Not to mention that there are still a few desolate scars on his body caused by radiation, in case this young but real hunter is annoyed and kills himself without saying a word, who can he talk to?

"Mr. Hunter, the villain and his family fled here from a nearby settlement, and wanted to take refuge in Suyang, but they got lost, I really didn't mean to offend you, you have a lot of them, raise your noble hand, and let the villain's family go."

Feng Xia frowned, a little puzzled: "Escaped here from a nearby settlement?" Are you in any trouble? ”

"Ah...... This ......" The man didn't seem to expect Feng Xia to ask this, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, he glanced back at the mother and daughter, as if seeking encouragement from them, and swallowed his saliva and continued, "It's the bandits, the bandits attacked our settlement, and the commander of our barren battalion was killed directly without even blocking a single move of one of their men!" ”

Bandits, is a special profession in the wilderness, in short, it is an upgraded version of the bandits of the old era, it is worth mentioning that in many cases, when a hunter is short of funds, he will also make a cameo role as a bandit. But generally there are few bandits will be selected to attack the settlement point, more are to attack the hunters or caravans in the wilderness for a living, after all, a settlement even if the power is small, but also establish a connection with the information base of the sky, once destroyed by the bandits for no reason, it is very likely to be included in the bounty list by the skydome and become the target of hunters, and other settlements will also blacklist them, for most of the bandits who do not have their own base, such a blow is almost fatal.

So the bandits who can attack the settlements are either stunned young people who have no brains, or they are large bandit groups with good power, the former Feng Xia doesn't need to worry, as for the latter, Feng Xia doesn't have the ability to manage it even if he wants to, the second disease is the second disease, but he also has to do what he can, in order to save others and put his own life into such a thing, for the sake of his sister, let Feng Xia do this for a group of irrelevant people, really think that he is a traverser and should be a great bodhisattva who saves suffering? No kidding.

Feng Xia shook his head, closed his eyes and sensed the surrounding environment, then pointed to the left hand side, and said to the three of them: "You go there, there is about another thirty or forty kilometers, you can get out of the desert, and if you walk another one or two kilometers, you should be able to reach the No. 3 mine, if there are no special circumstances, the foreman there should still be the third uncle...... Oh, it's an old guy with a lot of beard that almost blocks half of his face, his mine has been short of manpower, the injuries on your body shouldn't be a big problem, slight desolation, the third uncle has a special medicine, give him an IOU and he will give it to you, don't worry about it, that old man knows better than anyone else, a good man is worth more than a ointment. He won't watch you spread barren because of myrrh. ”

The three of them listened to Feng Xia's words, their originally fearful eyes gradually faded, and slowly the woman and the little girl no longer shrank behind, but were able to walk in two steps bravely, wanting to get closer and hear Feng Xia's guidance clearly.

Feng Xia seemed to think of something, took out a bag of roasted sand wolf meat and a bag of sand wolf blood from his arms, stuffed it into the man and said: "I guess you won't have anything to eat, I don't have any more dry food, you can take this bag of dried meat and wolf blood, if you save it, it should be enough for you to get out of this desert." ”

The moment the man saw Feng Xia take out the wolf meat and wolf blood, his breathing suddenly became short, and a pair of cloudy eyes stared closely at Feng Xia's hand holding the bag, which made Feng Xia think of the hyenas who lived on scavenging in the wilderness for no reason, whenever they had a premonition that a big battle would happen somewhere, their eyes looked at the people or beasts who rushed to that battlefield, greedy and enthusiastic, and there was a bit of fear buried deep in their eyes.

Shaking his head, Feng Xia took two steps forward, bent down and handed the bag of wolf meat and wolf blood to the man's hand, the man nodded and took the two bags of food, and waved his hand to signal his wife and daughter to come over and kowtow to Feng Xia to thank him, and he knelt directly on the ground, Feng Xia frowned, lowered his body, and stretched forward with his hands, as if to help the man up.

The corners of the man's mouth suddenly hooked up a weird smile, and at the same time, a tall man suddenly appeared behind the cactus, holding a ridiculous firearm in his hand!

Without any warning, the dull sound of gunfire suddenly rang out in the night, and the silver-gray barren energy bullet went straight to Feng Xia's eyebrows!

And the mother and daughter, who had just cowered at the beginning, were already looking at Feng Xia indifferently at this moment, like a hunter looking at the prey he had fallen into a trap.

Even if he is a wild man, at such a close distance, it is difficult to maintain his combat effectiveness when he is hit by a wild energy bullet, not to mention that the prey in front of him should still be a "chick", and the three of them don't think that he can have much strength to survive after this shot.

Flashes of light!

As if he had expected all this, Feng Xia held the scabbard with one hand, and Shui Mosheng was horizontal in front of him, intercepting the desolate energy bomb.

"You! You're actually ...... Stopped the barren energy bullet, how could it be! The man who was originally confident cried out in horror, and frantically fell backwards, exclaiming, and finally fell directly to the ground. The attacker in front of the cactus couldn't help but tremble, and subconsciously fell on the little girl.

Feng Xia slowly lowered his head, and his gaze moved to the little girl at the same time.

"It's really not enough to succeed and more to lose!" The little girl who was harmless to humans and animals at first scolded angrily, although her voice was crisp, but at some point she had taken out a modified absurd pistol from her hood, the muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at Feng Xia, and a pair of small hands that were extremely incompatible with the body of the gun did not tremble at all when holding the gun.

"It turns out that there are really child bandits......" Under the night, Feng Xia's voice was a little sad.

The Hunters' Guild has a very friendly book for rookie hunters, called "Three Days to Learn 500 Essential Knowledge for Survival in the Wilderness", which has a very detailed introduction to the special profession of bandits. As a loyal reader of this book, Feng Xia has a particularly deep memory of a description in the Bandit Chapter.

There is a type of bandits, who use scavengers or refugees as their skins, lure their prey to relax their vigilance, and then kill them with their accomplices who are ambushed nearby, and if the ambush fails, they use the leader of the bandits as bait to lure the prey for a second time, and then let the leader wait for the opportunity to complete the assassination.

The leaders of such bandits are often eight or nine years old, and at most children are no more than twelve years old. Most of them are orphans, they have been adopted by some large bandit groups since they were young, they began to receive training after the age of four, and after the age of eight, they led their subordinates to serve as the eyes of the bandit group and began their hunting career.

Generally speaking, these bandit squads led by children should be more gentle than other bandits, but in fact, on the contrary, they have been trained in blood and cruelty since childhood, and their twisted minds are more tyrannical and cruel in their actions, and the innocent faces of children make them easier to rob successfully.

Among the bandits, they have a very apt name, called "child bandits".

It is worth mentioning that in the past, there was a strong huntress who resisted two attacks when she encountered a child bandit, but she still couldn't bear to kill the child, but adopted the child by her side, hoping to influence the child.

Later, it was revealed that the huntress had become the finale of the "slave auction" held by the bandit's bandit.

The wind rises in the wilderness, the starry birds return to their nests, and the starry sky returns to darkness.

Shui Mosheng slowly returned to the sheath, Feng Xia didn't look back at the four corpses, but the voice of the little girl's despair before death still echoed in his ears.

"I'm just trying to live, is that wrong!"
