Stone wrapped himself tightly in black cloth from top to bottom, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
He walked at the front of the team, always alert to his surroundings.
Although they have not yet officially entered Bailongbo, the terrible things about Mengzhou are not only the strong winds that bite people, but also the quicksand that can completely swallow up people, animals and goods.
Especially in recent times, both the countries in the Western Region and the Chen Dynasty have been in turmoil. Bandits and bandits in the vicinity have also become active, and there are more and more cases of killing and stealing goods.
Shitou saw that most of Lu Jing's team were old people and women, and he even persuaded Wen Xiaochuan to hire more bodyguards to protect them.
But he was fooled by the latter who gave him a haha.
When Shitou saw this, he had no choice but to collect people's money and eliminate the disaster. .
He had already taken one thousand taels from Wen Xiaochuan, which was enough to buy his life. So seeing that Lu Jing and the others had no idea of replenishing the bodyguard, Shitou had to be careful.
So he didn't walk very fast after leaving the city, but what he didn't expect was that not long after he had gone, he heard Lu Jing urging him, "Can we speed up?"
Shitou's face turned a little dark, but luckily he couldn't tell because he was wrapped in black cloth. He just replied in a stiff tone, "Camels are used to this pace, which allows them to save the water and moisture stored in their bodies as much as possible." nutrient."
Lu Jing said oh when he heard this but said nothing more.
Shitou thought he had convinced Lu Jing, but he didn't expect that not long after, the camel behind him suddenly started to speed up.
Stone was shocked.
He thought Lu Jing was beating the camel, so he turned around quickly, only to find that the latter was sitting comfortably on it, not making any moves, but just mumbling something.
Shitou didn't quite understand what he was saying, but he saw several other camels speeding up their pace one after another.
Shitou was puzzled and tried to tame the leading camel, causing it to slow down again.
But the camel seemed a little agitated, and after a while, it quickened its pace again.
Moreover, Lu Jing shouted from above, "Let them go, they are used to this pace."
"…………"
The stone was choked and speechless.
Then Lu Jing said again, "If you feel tired, you can also ride one."
Shi Shi replied firmly, "No, the guide will lead the way."
After speaking, he also quickened his pace, but after walking a few steps, he suddenly felt a lightness on his body, and then Shitou felt that his legs were extremely light, and he couldn't help but want to speed up his pace.
There was a look of confusion on his face, and he immediately thought of something and looked back at Lu Jing.
The latter smiled at him and said, "You're welcome."
——There is something strange about this group of people.
This was Shitou's impression of Lu Jing and others when he led the team on the first day.
And at night, his impression was confirmed again.
He saw a lot of old men in the team who had been sleeping on the camels during the day. When they got down, they started to play with the strange gadgets he had brought with him.
After that, I raised my head and looked at the stars. While watching, I wrote and drew something on the sand.
And this was not over yet, he soon heard a thumping sound coming from the big box on the back of the other camel.
"Did you kidnap someone?" The expression on Shitou's face changed.
"Oh, it's not a person in there, it's just a bronze statue."
Shitou obviously didn't believe Lu Jing's lies. What a joke. How could the bronze statue make a sound on its own?
Lu Jing didn't explain, walked to the camel and took down the big box.
Then he didn't shy away from the stone and opened it in front of him.
Then Shitou saw a scene that made his hair stand on end. He saw a bronze statue with no hands and only half a head left, struggling to escape from the box.
But as soon as he got up, Lu Jing kicked him back again.
"Don't move, otherwise you won't just have two and a half heads and seven arms."
"This...this is the Brahma in the temple!"
At this time, Shi Shi finally recognized the contents of the box, and his voice began to tremble.
He often goes to the temple to pray on weekdays, and is quite familiar with the bronze statue inside. Moreover, he also heard about the disappearance of the bronze statue a few days ago. Later, Yan Yun came to him to inquire about the temple. location.
Shitou just didn't expect Lu Jing and his group to be so bold as to steal the bronze statue.
You must know that Brahma has already descended on this bronze statue, and what Lu Jing and the others are doing now is obviously disrespectful to Brahma.
The bronze statue stared at Lu Jing with its remaining eye. After a moment, it stopped moving and said, "What do you want me to do?"
"Let me ask you something. If your answer satisfies me, I will let you go."
Balotian snorted coldly. He didn't seem to believe Lu Jing's words, but he still said, "Ask me, mortal."
"I heard that you are very familiar with this desert. Have you ever heard of a bead?"
"Beads, what beads?" Brahma asked.
"I don't know. Anyway, it should be quite special. That bead has existed for a long time, at least tens of thousands of years."
Brahma looked at Lu Jing with interest, "Why are you looking for that bead?"
"It's none of your business, just tell me whether you've heard of it or not."
"Of course I have heard of it. There is nothing in this desert that I don't know about." Brahma Tian confidently said.
"Really?" Lu Jing expressed doubt, "Where is the bead?"
"The west."
"......Aren't you talking nonsense? If we want to go deep into Bailongbo, we must go west."
When Brattian heard this, he rolled his eyes and looked in one direction, "There, what you are looking for is there."
Lu Jing frowned, still suspecting that this guy was just talking casually.
But at this moment, Professor Xu put down his brush and pointed in a direction, "Figure it out and go there."
And the direction he pointed was exactly the same as what Brahma looked at just now.
"Look, I didn't lie to you." Brahma smiled and then asked, "Where are tonight's sacrifices?"
While talking about it, he glanced at the rocks not far away intentionally or unintentionally.
That look made Stone shudder.
However, what answered him was the lid of the wooden box. Lu Jing put Brahmin back into the box. Anyway, the latter's arms had been removed by him. Even if he wanted to break the wooden box, he couldn't do it, let alone Lu Jing later tied chains to the wooden box.
After doing all this, Lu Jingcai said to Shitou, "Let's go on the road."
"Where to go?" Shitou asked subconsciously.
"save the world."
