The man with the tattoo on his face grabbed Chen Tao's neck, and Chen Tao's whole body was almost lifted up by him. His face turned red, his lungs began to spasm, and his eyes rolled up.
"Damn it, let him go!" Seeing that Chen Tao was about to be strangled to death by the man, Haozi yelled anxiously from the side, but he was punched hard in the face.
"It's not your turn to speak now." The man who hit him was very tall, with high dreadlocks and shaved hair on both temples. He had tattoos on his face and the same dark skin, which reminded him a bit of Tibetans. Or a Mongolian, judging from the status of this group of people, his status should not be low.
The bearded leader still refused to let go and seemed to want to strangle Chen Tao to death.
"!@#!￥%#..." Suddenly a little guy came over and whispered something in the bearded ear. Then the bearded man glared and shook his hand away. .
Chen Tao was coughing and retching incessantly. If he had been a few seconds later, he might have died on the spot.
"Hmph, you bastard of the Chen family, I'll let you live for now. If you dare to play any tricks..." The bearded man fiercely grabbed Chen Tao's collar, then let go and turned to face behind him. The others waved their hands and said, "Let's go!"
The sun is gradually setting, and a camel caravan is slowly advancing in the desert.
Chen Tao and the others were dragged behind a camel with their hands tied. There were people watching them from both the front and the back. If they dared to move, they would be shot to pieces in an instant. Those people took away the three people's water bottles and food, and handed over their weapons and equipment. The only good thing was that the nails hidden in Haozi's body were not found. This is also his biggest reliance now.
"Just now I heard them calling the bearded man the high priest. These people are not desert bandits, but more like some kind of religious believers." Ye Rong whispered.
"My aunt, those people are talking like toads taking a nap, how come you heard that the bearded man is the high priest?" Haozi glanced at the people around him and murmured in a low voice.
"They speak the ancient language. This language is about to disappear now. Only a few ancient races still use it, but it is also extremely rare!" Ye Rong was also wary of the few people around who were staring at them. It's so low that it's almost hard to hear.
"What to do now? They took away our equipment, and also robbed us of food and water. Without water and food in the desert is a dead end, not to mention, they still have guns!"
"Damn it, Mr. Hao, I've never been so aggrieved in my life. Don't let me take the chance, or I'll put a few nails in his ass!" Haozi gritted his teeth, his eyes full of anger.
"Let me see, although we are now prisoners, they don't seem to have any intention of killing us. In other words, we still have some value to them." Chen Tao glanced at the bearded man in the front carefully. "The big bearded man scolded me before and said he was a bastard of the Chen family. I don't know what the little guy said to him, but I'm sure that man knew the Chen family, and that's why he didn't kill us!
"
"Yes." Ye Rong nodded and said, "I have never heard of such an organization or religion in the Ye family for so long. We have absolutely no information about this group of people."
"These people are not simple. Did you see that everyone has ghost symbols painted on their faces, and their language and clothing are not like locals at all. They might be transnational thieves who sneaked in!" Haozi raised his chin. Pointing at the few people in front, he said: "Those people are obviously different from these noobs. They are probably not fuel-efficient. This time we have suffered eight bad lucks and are in big trouble."
"Damn it, it's all my fault for being too reckless and thinking about finding the answer on my own. If I had told my father and Shangui earlier, I wouldn't have ended up in this situation."
"What happened this time was completely beyond my expectation. It's no coincidence that these people appeared in the ruins. They should have been targeting us a long time ago."
Chirp….Chirp Chirp….
There was a sharp hawk cry from above. The falcon circled a few times above the heads of the group, and then landed on the shoulder of the bearded man.
"The desert is so big and there are so many people that we can't hide. If my guess is correct, these people are using this falcon to track us!"
"This damn flat-haired beast, if I were to die if Master Hao were to kill me, I would have to strip it naked and torture it with fire!"
"It's impossible to escape now. The only solution now is to follow them first. We don't know where this group of people are going." Chen Tao sighed helplessly.
"Tatunaan!" Ye Rong whispered: "The route they are taking now is the same as Di Yilong's route."
"Hey, where did Uncle Long and the others go? They didn't even see a shadow along the way, even if they left some mark!" Haozi also looked defeated.
As the night fell, gusts of cool wind blew around, blowing on people's bodies with a cold swishing sound. However, those people had no intention of staying, and instead walked faster and faster.
"I can't do it anymore. If I continue like this, I will be dragged to death by a camel sooner or later!"
The three of them walked all the way with difficulty. They were hungry and cold, and their legs were shaking with fatigue. But they had no choice but to grit their teeth and persevere.
Boom...
Chen Tao was already injured. After all, he couldn't hold on anymore and fell to the ground. The rope tied to his hands was stretched straight, and a deep sand mark was dragged on the ground.
"Taozi!" Upon seeing this, Haozi hurriedly stopped and tugged hard on the rope in his hand. The camel that was originally moving forward was tugged like this and let out a whirring cry.
"Wow katak is so cool! Kazakh fulekatto!!!"
A hooded man behind him yelled in front of him, and the originally advancing camel team suddenly stopped.
"Rahadaway! Ah Wai Qiu Wadawa!" The tall black man with dreadlocks shouted before, and then followed the bearded man to ride a camel to the side of Chen Tao and the others.
"Hey! Get up! Don't pretend to be dead!" The tall black man got off the camel and grabbed Chen Tao by the collar. He saw that his eyes were closed tightly and he couldn't move.
He moved, stretched out his hand to feel Chen Tao's breath, turned his head and said a few words to the bearded man.
"Yeah!" The bearded man snorted coldly and waved his hand towards the two minions behind him.
"What are you going to do! Let him go!" Haozi didn't know what the bearded man wanted to do. He saw the two minions untying Chen Tao's rope and holding him up to where he was going.
The tall black man pointed at Haozi, glared at him fiercely, and warned: "Shut up!"
"You!" Haozi gritted his teeth angrily, but seeing Chen Tao in their hands, he could only hold back the bad breath in his heart.
I saw the bearded man get off the camel, and a minion stepped forward and opened a roll of cloth, lowered his head and presented it with both hands. The bearded man first stretched out his hand to pinch Chen Tao's chin and looked at it for a few times. Then he took out a slender silver needle from the cloth bag and pierced the back of Chen Tao's neck.
"Taozi!" Hazi shouted anxiously on the side, but he saw the unconscious Chen Tao suddenly coughed a few times and woke up.
"Water... cough cough... give me some water... I want to drink water..."
The bearded man glanced at Chen Tao impatiently, then at Ye Rong and Hao Zi behind him, and raised his chin towards a minion, who took a kettle and handed it to Chen Tao.
"Ahem..." After pouring some water on his back, Chen Tao finally regained his composure. His face was pale and he said feebly: "Thank you... thank you... can you... …Give my friends a little…”
The bearded man grinned with a ferocious smile, "The Chen family are really a bunch of trash!" Then he snatched the kettle from Chen Tao's hand and poured them all to the ground.
"You!" Chen Tao opened his eyes to the two people holding him, and tried to stand up straight. "I know what you want, and I can give it to you, but there is a condition."
"You are not worthy of making terms with me!"
"Yes...yes, okay..." Chen Tao's eyes flashed with a ruthless look, he turned around and rushed to one of the people who had just held him, raised his hand and took out the clothes on that person's body. Scimitar looked at it and wiped it hard on his neck.
"don't want!"
