As soon as the small team packed the water bags and processed the traces of their whereabouts, Shao Zhen vaguely heard the sound of horse hooves. Soon Yang Yun also heard it, so he hurriedly hid in the small bushes beside the rocks.
A total of three people came, all wearing military uniforms of the Quetu Kingdom. They soon arrived at the small pool in the oasis. Shao Zhen had good eyesight and looked at them with tired faces. They must have worked hard on the road.
With his excellent hearing, he vaguely understood that this was a small group of border guards on regular patrol. They received orders from their superiors two days ago and must set up defenses here within three days. Other people also came quickly to support. The task was to surround the border. If there are any enemy sightings, report them immediately and so on. They had no choice but to rush over as hard as they could. Unexpectedly, they were the first ones to arrive.
Shao Zhen and Yang Yun glanced at each other and found that each other had serious expressions, so they got together to discuss quietly and decided not to disturb each other and rest until dark before leaving.
It soon became dark, and the other party rested by the pool. Fortunately, the reinforcements from Quetu Kingdom have not arrived yet.
So everyone took advantage of the darkness and walked slowly for about two miles, bending over, then straightened up and whispered while walking.
Everyone admired Yang Yun very much for successfully getting rid of his pursuers just half an hour early.
Yang Yun waved his hand and whispered, "We are not out of danger yet, and I don't know the road ahead." Now we must enter the territory of Lanlou and Meng'er Kingdom before dawn, otherwise even if Quetu Kingdom comes after them, it will only be a small team. Little did you know that if you were surrounded by an army, it would be impossible to fly.
Shao Zhen encouraged everyone in a low voice, "The enemy thought we were a team of more than a hundred people and thought we were still surrounded. It will take at least three days for them to discover the intelligence error, so these three days are still very safe."
So everyone hurried all night in the dark, and finally the enemy's fire could no longer be seen, but it was really slow to move with people, and except for Shao Zhen, everyone else in the team showed signs of fatigue. They have been on the run for more than a month.
So during the day, I found a small sand dune to rest. Shao Zhen acted as a sentinel from a distance. He unconsciously looked towards the place where everyone was resting. He couldn't see it through the dune, but Li Jun felt that he could see it. It was really strange. He looked carefully, and suddenly a few purple people appeared in the red background. Shao Zhen was startled. Looking again, those people were Yang Yun and the others who were resting.
Shao Zhen slowly leaned over. It was really them. Shao Zhen was speechless. He really didn't know what this character would be like. When he was not concentrating, the red shadow slowly receded, the purple figure disappeared, and his eyes were filled with yellow sand again.
Shao Zhen tried several times and tried to look in the direction of the enemy. At first, he saw only yellow sand, then gradually he saw a red patch, and slowly he saw a purple figure. The figure was very small and felt very far away. , in fact, it is indeed far away, at least fifty or sixty miles away, but I really saw it, and I also saw horses, three people and three horses, all by the pool. Oh my god, I saw the pool, it was light gray. I suddenly became excited, and everything in my eyes disappeared instantly.
This character is so amazing, he can actually see things fifty miles away, and he can even see water in the desert, cows. Suddenly I saw a large number of troops gathering around me. I was startled. Just when I was about to sound the alarm, the troops disappeared again.
Mirage?
Are they all mirages? Li Jun really didn't dare to confirm, so he slowly returned to the resting place. It was already past the afternoon, and everyone was ready to continue their escape.
Due to the character's special eyesight, there was basically no trouble along the way. By daybreak, we were already more than a hundred miles away from the enemy's encirclement, and we were basically safe. According to Yang Yun, we should have entered the Meng'e Kingdom or Lan The territory of Lou State.
But at this time, except for Shao Zhen, everyone else was basically moving. Water, weapons and equipment were all on Shao Zhen. Yang Yun and Li Ling could barely walk by themselves, but the other four had to be helped. If there is an enemy chasing after him, he can just surrender, but Yang Yun said that it will take at least ten days to get out of the desert.
That is still an optimistic and normal speed. At the current speed, it is estimated to take twenty days, and the water reserve is only available for three days. If you can't find water in three days, you won't be far from heaven.
When they found a sand dune to rest again, apart from Shao Zhen, the only person who could move was Yang Yun. Shao Zhen firmly believed that he could get out of the desert, but it was hard to say whether he could get everyone out.
When setting off again, Yang Yun asked Shao Zhen to bury the equipment, swords, etc. on the spot, bringing only some water and bows and arrows. Then Shao Zhen dragged Liu Wei, and Yang Yun and Li Ling took turns dragging Ye Ri forward slowly. Go, Yang Yun didn't dare to say that the way was right, but Shao Zhen knew that it didn't matter, as long as he was getting further and further away from the enemy.
It is actually very dangerous without weapons, but without water it will be over immediately. Yang Yun told Shao Zhen that there were actually very few oases in the desert. He was able to lead everyone to find them because of the efforts of hundreds or thousands of people in the past. Now entering such an unfamiliar area, it is very difficult to find a water source, let alone an oasis. Da Tang had been preparing for war with Lin Siguo for at least more than ten years. But it was unexpected that the defection of the Quetu country would make all the achievements come to naught.
Quetu Country will definitely regret today's actions in the future, not only because they have to face our revenge, but mainly because they don't understand who the people of Lin Si Country are. "Yang Yun finally said this. Li Jun listened and did not express any opinions. Because Shao Zhen didn't know who he was following.
Night came soon, the temperature dropped, and everyone helped him walk. Since Shao Zhen could clearly see everything in the desert, and there was a little night light, everyone chatted about everything in life while walking, although they did not dare to speak too loudly. But compared to what is good during the day, the dry heat during the day can quickly consume everything in living things.
Through this kind of chat, Shao Zhen knew that this land was very large and had a large population. Of course, there were also many countries and wars. I can’t say who is more just, but those who suffer are basically ordinary people, and there are not many countries left that are unwilling to start a war lightly. This is really a contradictory existence in any world.
When daybreak comes, all they see is yellow sand. Except for the strong psychological endurance of soldiers, ordinary people may despair. Both Yang Yun and Shao Zhen estimate that the enemy has discovered that they are surrounded by protruding by now. How many people are chasing you and the route of pursuit.
Therefore, no one dared to be careless and found a place to hide as soon as daybreak, not only to avoid the scorching heat, but also to avoid the pursuing soldiers. But there was not much water left, and there was not much dry food and dried meat left. After today, even if there were no pursuers, it would be very difficult.
Shao Zhen tried hard to "look" for water sources, but there were none nearby, which meant that there were none within a radius of about fifty miles. And it takes quite a lot of energy to watch it once.
As the afternoon approached, I concentrated again and slowly observed my surroundings. Several figures came into sight, of course, that was only for Shao Zhen. It is estimated that those people are still fifty miles away. It was impossible to see Shao Zhen and the others. The people who came were two people on two horses, and they seemed to be looking for something. Shao Zhen knew that they must be pursuers. These were scouts, and they had some unexplainable communication equipment on them.
