"Look at it well, study it well, I'll only teach you once."

Song Che and his daughters squatted in front of the bonfire, filled half of the river water in a porcelain jar, held a small bottle in the middle, sealed the mouth of the jar with sheepskin, and pressed a stone to make an arc.

"When the water boils, it emits water vapor, which rushes up and condenses into droplets, which drip from the arc of the sheepskin into the vial, so that we have pure water."

"Oh! I see, just like we make soup on weekdays, every time we open the lid, there will be water droplets! ”

"Yes, that's how it works."

Soon, the water was boiled, and as expected, the pure water was evaporated and dripped into the vial, and in only half an hour it filled a whole bottle of distilled water.

Lu Jingxiang took a sip first, her eyes shining: "Sure enough, it's fresh water!" ”

Subsequently, the four of them made a fire and distilled water from bottles and cans according to the method taught by Song Che.

But the containers were so limited that we had only one vial at a time, and it took a whole day for everyone's water bags to be filled.

After touching a few fatty fish in the river, after a full meal, he rested until midnight as he did last night, and then continued his journey upstream.

The greenery that appears from time to time along the river has broken through from zero to one, and where there is water flowing, there must be a desert oasis.

Song Che opened his eyes wide, pricked up his ears, and kept watching and listening to his surroundings, how much he expected to hear the sweet "brother-in-law" shout.

"Boss, look at it, it's not a fire over there!" Lu Jingxiang suddenly raised her hand and pointed into the distance.

The light of a fire in the dark can often travel for miles. Song Che hurriedly probed with a telescope, and after focusing for a while, there was really a small light cluster!

He was ecstatic and hurriedly shot into the air, signaling the firelight.

The firelight seemed to hear the sound of gunfire and began to move towards them, and the caravan moved closer to it.

But when I got closer, I realized that something was wrong, and the fire seemed to be not just a little, but a whole piece!

Xiang'er, Nangong Yue, and Ziyun are only three people, even if they light three torches, it is impossible to have so many ...... It's not them!

It's a whole group of people!

"Could it be a sand bandit?" The female swordsmen drew their swords and were alert.

In the middle of the night, the desolate desert seems to be no one else except for the desert pirates.

"Put out the torches, let's hide behind the sand dunes, let's see what is going on!"

The torches were extinguished, and the three men were left to watch the camels, while the rest crept behind the hill, waiting for the light of the fire to come near.

"Da Da Da ......"

The sound of horses' hooves was fierce, not to mention one or two hundred people.

Song Che poked his head out and secretly observed with a telescope-

There were about 200 horsemen, uniformly dressed and armed, not like sand bandits, but more like an army. The leader of the troops, dressed in silver-white armor, shining in the moonlight, still wore a high ...... Ponytail?

Is it a woman?

Song Che rubbed his eyes and put his gaze on the frame again, just as the female general turned her head, her delicate and three-dimensional facial features, blue eyes like amber, and her face as cold as frost, and Song Che looked at each other through the telescope!

Song Chehu's body was shocked, and he hurriedly retracted his head.

"Boss, is the one who came a sand bandit?" Lu Jingxiang asked in a low voice.

Song Che shook his head, "It looks like a certain country's army......"

"They...... You don't think we're sand bandits, are you? ”

"It's really hard to say, let me take a look at them again."

Song Che cautiously poked his head out, and before his eyes caught up with the telescope, he saw that the female general was on the string, and the arrow was already pointing at him-

Oh my god!

"Whoosh!"

Between the lightning and flint, a flying arrow grazed Song Che's face, and even the cold hair could feel trembling, and he was really a little bit out of phase.

"Don't hide, you've been discovered, get out of here!" The female general shouted loudly.

"How can this be reasonable, go out and fight with them!"

The female swordsmen almost wanted to draw their swords, but Song Che held them down, "It's hard to distinguish between the other party and me, so don't show your head for the time being." ”

"Whoosh ......"

A few arrows shot up the dunes, and then the female general shouted:

"I'll warn you one last time, those who know each other hurry up and arrest them, otherwise ten thousand arrows will shoot you all into hedgehogs!"

"General, stop!"

Song Che replied loudly: "We are not sand bandits, just merchants who have encountered a sandstorm and are accidentally lost!" ”

"Humph! I haven't even asked you about your identity, but you have revealed yourself first, aren't you a thief? The female general shouted again:

"If you are really a caravan, why do you sneak closer to our border in the middle of the night without resting?"

"We are traveling at night to discern the direction with the help of the stars in the sky, and we really have no intention of offending your territory, not to mention this black light, who knows where your border is?"

"You're really not a sand bandit?"

"I'm not a sand bandit!"

"Do you dare to show up and prove your innocence?"

"Why wouldn't I dare?"

Song Che wanted to get up, but Lu Jingxiang held her down, "Boss, you can't go, that arrow almost killed you, it can be seen that this woman is decisive and vicious, and she may hurt you if she is not careful!" ”

Wanzhou also persuaded: "Yes, meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, they are only one or two hundred people, with our strength, with one enemy and ten, it is better to rush out directly, kill them without leaving a piece of armor, maybe you can earn some food and water!" ”

"Don't ......"

If the soldiers meet each other, won't they really become sand bandits? The appearance of this army here means that there must be a country nearby, and Song Che's purpose is to unite the countries of the Western Regions, and to make friends with them is also more helpful to find Liu Xiang'er and them.

"I'm not afraid of shadows, I'm not a sand bandit, why hide it?"

"Boss, we'll go with you!"

"That's not necessary, you have swords and swords, but it will arouse her suspicion."

Song Che slowly stood up and looked down at the army, good guy, dozens of bows and arrows were ready to go, staring at him.

He hurriedly raised his hands and slowly walked down the dunes, and when he came to the riverbank, he completely saw this army, not only the female general with a ponytail, but also the soldiers behind him were all women!

Shouldn't it be to the daughter country?

Four female pawns came to the female general with their spears carrying Song Che.

The female general glanced at Song Che from head to toe, puzzled: "You...... Not from the Western Regions? ”

Song Che said: "The general's official words are so standard, how can I not know where I am from? ”

"Are you...... Liang people! ”

"Huh? Is he from Liang? ”

"Is this the Liang people?"

"So Liang people look like this?"

It's like a flock of sparrows that have never seen the world.

"Even if you are from Liang, how can you prove that you are not a sand bandit?" The female general asked.

"Sand bandits? The general wants to humiliate me, so he doesn't compare me to a brute, right? ”

Song Che pointed to his placket, "This is a Danqing white cloud robe painted with the best silk, worth a hundred taels of gold; ”

He pointed to his hairpin again, "This is a hairpin made of Kunlun chicken blood jade, plus its craftsmanship value, more than a hundred taels of gold; ”

He also compared the wrench on his thumb and the gold ring on his ring finger: "These two are even more incredible, one symbolizes the status of the president, and the other symbolizes the status of the family, and no amount of money can buy them; ”

He pointed to his shoes again, "I have a whole body, and these shoes are relatively cheap, only twenty or thirty taels of gold; ”

Finally, he smiled and winked at the female general:

"Even if a sand bandit robs a lifetime of goods, it can't make more money than my business, so why should I do those deals that lick blood from the knife and are spurned by others?"

The female general snorted lightly, "If you really tell Her Majesty the Queen, you Daliang people just love to show off ......."
